$205 bucks for less than 15 minutes!
For small children (3-5) this practice will suit if they want to play and be entertained while they are treated and not be traumatized. The waiting area has an assortment of video games and toys.
However, with the large group of dentists you never are guaranteed of seeing the same dentist unless you request it. We've seen 3 different dentists and chair-side manners are generally good. The lead doctors in the practice are very patient with small children. The prices are high for what you get - $205, for literally a 5 minute check and typically 5-8 minute cleaning (if you could even call it that.) Maybe some children can't sit in a chair for more than 15 minutes, but that's another story.
The going rate in Manhattan is high but I think if you're a working middle class parent you should look for another dental group if your concern is price. Front desk is ambivelant at best. They do not partticipate in any insurance program!
