Best dentists and hygienists AND front desk staff around. Very fair pricing, super efficient with patients' time and very willing to accommodate preferences when they can. This is a respectful and inclusive space to get your dental work done and dental health cared for. I constantly recommend them to friends/family. If you are at all uneasy at the dentist this is the place to come to.

Dr. Lieberman and the staff at Essex family dental are top notch I've had two route canal and crowns done by him and his team. I'm pain free and happier for it, they all went above and beyond to make my experience as pain free and relaxing as possible while holding the highest level of professionalism.

Saw Dr. Liberman for dental emergency, he was absolutely wonderful, explained everything and made me feel very comfortable as I was pretty anxious, and the staff are very caring. Feeling so much better when I left.

I highly recommend this dental practice. Everyone that works here is knowledgeable, friendly and professional. They really put the patient first. I'm a third of the way through my Invisalign treatment and it's going fantastic thanks to Dr. Lieberman and the rest of the EFD crew! I first started coming here when I broke a front tooth and was in a panic for dental help. I wasn't a even a patient and they got me right in and fixed my tooth immediately. Amazing care and service. Thanks again EFD!

A few weeks ago my 5 year old daughter had her regular cleaning and dentist check and was told "her teeth look great" today she started antibiotics and had oral surgery scheduled for a cavity that led to a broken tooth and a horribly infected tooth. How do you miss a cavity that bad?!?! I would never recommend them and unfortunately this isn't my only horrible experience with this dental practice.

My last appointment was for a crown. The girl who put my crown on used the temporary bond and then proceeded to pry the crown back off causing me to bleed everywhere and have excruciating pain. A crown is supposed to be an easy in and out pain free appointment. Not only was that bad but she put the crown on so it wasn't fitted correctly and now it causes me daily discomfort. Please save yourself the pain and go someplace else!
