Watch your pocket book with this one. Had a Sinus Lift and two implants. Was charged for 2 Sinus Lifts and four implants. Would not give money back. Had to open case with charge card company and still did not get all (double charged for anathesia) charges returned.
About Front Desk: Billing and front desk staff would not work with me to resolve problem. Nasty and rude.

I have had dental implants done with Dr. Labriola, tooth extractions and other surgical work. I am always amazed that he performs these procedures in such a short period of time and basically pain free (although I always do opt for the "twilight sleep" option because I am a sissy). He is kind, gentle and takes the time to get to know his patients. You will never feel rushed with him. I have followed Dr. Labriola to three different dental offices over the past 12 years and have recommended numerous patients to him; all of whom are grateful for the referral. I would highly recommend him for any type of dental surgery or extraction and my husband and I will continue to see him when necessary.

Procedure Requested # Wisdom Tooth Extraction #16 & #17
Pain: Extracted Wisdom tooth #32 by mistake and then patient requested extraction of Wisdom tooth #1 since it lost his supporting tooth
Good Job/work on extraction widom tooth #16, #17 and #32; Tooth #1 was hard to extract and has been painful then rest
Assistant also failed to stop extraction of wrong tooth i.e. #32 ; Doctor is too busy too talk or discuss his plan to share his understanding of work with patient
He was kind not to charge for wrong tooth extraction
Office sparkles and clean - but I advice rest to make to confirm about his planned work - don't assume that he knows the requested task. He may confuse you with someone else. Be aware and double check with everything ...and not to rely on assistant/paper/x-rays documents. You are responsible!

I received treatment for major oral surgery through Dr. LaBriola's facility. The surgery was performed by Dr. Francioni and Dr. Labriola. The results were not good at all. I went for numerous follow up exams asking them if this is the way I should look, and if theses were my final results. They told me I was a hypochondriac. I was deeply hurt and sad. My mom stepped in and asked how we could fix this, the reply we got was shocking, Dr. Francion said "we are going to keep cutting her open till she's happy" I immediately found another doctor for a second opinion, and with the x-rays he took he had found that some of the screws they had put in my face had fallen out. I now how floating screws in my face and been having to try to get this fixed for two years. I still have an underbite and now foreign objects in my face. Dr. Labriola's office stopped returning my calls and basically dropped me. I do not reccomend their services. There staff is also obnoxious and not helpful at all. They are loud and rude, and have no sympathy what so ever. Note: I am not speaking for all the nurses there, only the ones I delt with. People should not be in the medical industry that do not have sympathy towards their patients.

Dr. LaBriola is highly skilled and manages to make oral surgery a painless and almost pleasant experience. His fees are reasonable and the office staff is pleasant. I had 2 dental implants done in the early 90's and they're holding up great. I've had also had a couple of other procedures since. I highly recommend this dentist.

I'll never go back!
Put in a crocked implant and it had to be pulled out (ouch!). Prior to that, I had not 1, but 2 unsuccessful procedures (root canal through gum line) on the SAME tooth. They made a lot of money off of this tooth.
LaBriola offered to replace the implant for free, however I declined (as I figured if no other procedure was successful with him on this tooth, it was time to let it go or go somewhere else). Since he offered to do the procedure for free...I asked for a partial refund since I elected to forego the procedure. Nothing. Since then, I did have a 2nd opninon with a leading oral surgeon in Reston (Hussman I think) and he said that I needed a bone graph in that area....which was completely the opposite of what LaBriola concluded. I've lost faith in LaBriola...and would not go back...even if it was FREE!!
Oh yea...one time I went to LaBriolas office for a follow-up look. They seated me in a room....and forgot about me. Left me sitting there for 1 hour!!! Finally, I left. I went back (b/c I had to) and complained about the wait (after all - I did have to take off work)....LaBriola never apologized. That's why Customer Service getsd a POOR rating.

Dr. LaBriola first performed oral surgery in my tooth, but later had to pull it and did an implant when he found the root was cracked. He did fabulous work. I had little bone --such that my dentist was not sure it could be done. Instead of a bone build-up, he pushed the bone scraps up (or something like that) as he drilled, thereby creating the bone he needed for the implant. A much easier procedure from the patient's perspective, but I gather it is unusual. There were later problems with the work done at the dentist's office and lab, and Dr. LaBriola was very patient at helping out. In the end I got a rock-solid implant that other dentists have praised. I had little or no pain. Cost was moderate for the implant, which was not covered by insurance. Other work he did was partially covered by insurance (Kaiser) and quite cheap, I thought. Great manner with patients, provides good explanations.

Single implant, almost no pain, $1,750 plus $300 for abutment, billing was clear, uninsured, excellent manners, competent aides
Had twin implant 12 years ago, with similar results, which is why I went back. I had a problem three years after surgery, which he diagnosed and cured quickly

Excellent oral surgeon, extracted a tooth and put some stitches in, no pain during the procedure at all using just local. Previous oral surgeon I went to used local and for some reason it didn't take, then she switched to gas, I was still in agony.
Very well maintained facility, state of the art diagnostic stuff, excellent!!
Everything was covered by my insurance, so I'm not sure how the cost rates.
