Family Dentistry of Toms River: Dr. M. Shariff, DMD

":) Omg where do I begin! This office is incredible. Doctors and the staff! I was have some horrible tooth pain last Monday. My current dentist wasn’t even in and there was no on call doc, I had to go to urgent care to see if I can at least get me started on an antibiotic for my tooth and try to get something for pain . I ended up finally getting an app with my dentist last Tuesday and he couldn’t do anything for me and didn’t even try to help me with the pain or try to get me into a root canal specialist . He gave me 2 referrals to call and sent me on my way. I tired to call them and neither of them answered or called me back. It was Awful and very upsetting . I took matters into my own hands and started to call around before making a trip to the ER for pain. It was unbearable . Luckily I was able to come in contact with this office Dr . Shairff. He was the only one that called me back out of the other 10 dentist/specialists I reached out to. He told me to come in and he will take a look at the tooth and do the root canal if needed that day and also take care of the pain and make me comfortable. He was literally a god send! I was able to go there and he was able to treat me and take care of my root canal and the pain. He even messaged me later on that night asking how my tooth was doing . Just so incredible . Now I’m Doing everything and anything I can to get my insurance plan switched so I can make him my primary dentist . They are just so wonderful. Thank you guys for everything! Deeply appreciated !"

"This is by FAR the best dental practice I’ve ever been to. To begin, I called them because I felt pain in a tooth that was infected. Dr. Sharriff took my call at 6pm on a Friday via his personal cell and called me in an antibiotic right away. They got me right in for an appointment the following Tuesday. Once I got there they ask you a series of questions on the intake form, several of which ask about your fear of the dentist (which I’m sure many people have.) I’ve never seen this before but it allows them to tailor their treatment plan for you so you feel as comfortable as can possibly be. I ended up needing a root canal and this was not my first one. I’ve had horrible experiences getting this done but I felt no pain and felt totally comfortable with them during the procedure. Dr. Sheikh did my procedure along with Jen and Tracey and they were all amazing. Joanne the receptionist is a pleasure to deal with as well. Long story short. Whoever your dentist is or if you’re looking for one, this is the place. I’ll never go anywhere again."

"What a fabulous practice! New to the area and had yet to establish a relationship with a local dentist. Broke a back tooth last evening and began a google search this morning for an emergency dentist. Family Dentistry of Toms River was the first result that popped up. A quick glance showed positive reviews so I made the call. I'm so glad that I did! They got me in within the hour and took all precautions with temperature check and social distancing protocols. I have extreme anxiety about going to the dentist but Jess, the assistant, was very kind and understanding of my personal needs. Dr Shariff was very easy to talk to and he took the time to listen to my concerns. I appreciate his patience and caring efforts as I’m a very nervous patient. The broken molar was 90% filling and was damaged on the back and side...I needed a crown. To my surprise I was told I would be walking out with a permanent crown in a couple of hours. Wait....what?!? No temporary, no two week wait...sign me up! I am very happy to have found Family Dentistry of Toms River, Dr Shariff, and his staff! I will recommend them to everyone I know! I couldn't ask for better service!"

"What a awesome group of people! Everything from start to finish including making my appointment was truly awesome! Dr. Shariff was so kind and gentle with my 5 year old son. Keep up the great work guys! This office and everyone that works there deserve all the success in the world! Thank you for making us feel welcomed and at ease."
