I have been going to Dr. Shifman for about a year now. I have had two small fillings and several cleanings. She really takes the time to listen to your concerns and makes every effort to make the visit painfree and comfortable. The office offers every level of sedation possible. I only use the nitrous in addition to being numbed up, but it is nice to know if I needed additional sedation options, they are available. I would recommend Dr. Shifman to any patient who wants a comfortable experience at the dentist. Her staff is also terrific as well.
