Testimonials

"I’ll start this review by sharing that I am super anxious about going to do the dentist. Long story short, preventative care was never normalized in my family growing up. I say this because the care, patience, kindness and professionalism, I experienced at Hudson Family Smiles made the experience enjoyable. This was my first time seeing Dr. Naik. I cracked a tooth a few days before a 4 week trip overseas. I needed a dentist asap so I searched local reviews and opted for Hudson Family Smiles. She happened to be at the office but had dedicated her day to non-patient matters. Once I told her about my situation she immediately scheduled me for a visit. She was able to triage and fix the tooth on the spot. I’m so impressed by her ability to make someone who suffers from extreme dental anxiety feel at ease. It’s her superpower for sure. Her skill set is unparalleled. She numbed the area seamlessly, without much discomfort; all while explaining every step of what she was doing. I really appreciated her ability to squeeze me in, but what I loved the most was her ability to hone in on my dental work fears and worked to disuade them. She is my dentist from now on and she should be yours too. Thanks again Dr. Naik. You’re a gem of a dentist and a wonderful find right in my neighborhood. Diana"

"The best way to describe my experience at Dr. Tina Naik-Puri's office would be professional and painless. Unlike previous experiences at dental offices, the service their was prompt and professional. I was seated in the dental chair within a couple of minutes of my scheduled appointment time. Once the X-rays were done, they proceeded immediately with the cleaning.That was definitely the most thorough but comfortable cleaning I've ever experienced which was performed by Dr. Niak-Puri herself!!! I also had ongoing issues with a sensitive tooth that was never effectively dealt with at other dental offices. It's been 4 months since seeing Dr. Naik-Puri and I've had no issued with the tooth yet."

"Moved to the area recently and was recommended Dr. Naik-Puri by a friend. So glad she did! The Dr. was super friendly, painless, competent and informative. Explained what she was doing thoroughly...and kept things simple. Most importantly, the hour (both initial and follow up appointments) in that chair went by quickly, which doesn’t usually happen with the dentist. Highly recommend. Another plus was that it was easy to make an appointment (really sweet staff) with quick response time."

"Never a wait for my appt. Dr. Tina and her assistant are incredibly friendly and take their time. She's very considerate of my teeth sensitivity. I'm very comfortable with her and have been seeing her for years and would recommend her to anyone in the area!"

"Dr Naik is friendly and efficient. She did through examination of my teeth, performed cleaning and gave tips to maintain oral hygiene. Overall, I had a good experience and recommend this for oral health. Her assistant also warm and quick."

"Dr. Tina Naik-Puri restored my confidence by improving my smile. Before I saw Dr. Tina Naik-Puri I was reluctant to talk, smile or even eat! Now I have a solid veneer for a tooth I chipped as a child. The veneer Dr. Naik Puri made is a near perfect color match for my natural teeth. I am EAGER to eat (a bit too much haha), PROUD to smile and CONFIDENT to speak. I am a healthier, happier person! Dr. Tina Naik-Puri fixed my chipped tooth in the most comfortable, reassuring, skillful and efficient way. Like most people I was apprehensive about going to the dentist. Almost as soon as I walked into her office Dr. Tina Naik-Puri eased my fears about my dental visit. It was obvious that Dr. Tina Naik-Puri is an exceptionally professional, experienced, knowledgeable and thorough dentist. In fact, Dr. Tina Naik-Puri went above and beyond to IMPROVE my smile. Dr. Tina Naik-Puri fixed a problem that my prior 3 renowned dentists never bothered to bring to my attention, let alone address. Dr. Tina Naik-Puri noticed that the front tooth next to my chipped front tooth was slighter longer than the damaged one. She suggested that we even out the length of those two teeth in order to make my smile look better. Dr. Tina Naik-Puri was so right! I couldn’t be happier with my smile! Hudson Family Smiles is an extremely clean office. I am very particular about cleanliness especially in terms of health care facilities. Dr. Tina Naik-Puri’s office is very clean, comfortable and bright. Hudson Family Smiles staff is very professional, considerate and accommodating. In addition, Hudson Family Smiles seems to be well stocked with the appropriate dental supplies, too. Dr Tina Naik-Puri’s skills have changed the way I think about my childhood accident (falling off my bike and chipping my front tooth). At several points, my chipped front tooth made it very challenging to eat nearly anything. Since people can be judgmental I was very reluctant to talk, smile or even eat. Now I know that my skilled and caring dentist, Dr. Tina Naik-Puri, will provide me the best dental care possible. I won’t have those problems again! I would travel miles to see a dentist as talented and professional as Dr. Tina Naik-Puri. Honestly, Dr. Tina Naik-Puri is the best dentist I have ever seen and I hope to see her for many years."

"My husband and I are new to the downtown jersey city area, so when he chipped his tooth, we were in a scramble to find a dentist. Every other dentist, wanted to charge us for a consultation and then have to come back again. They accommodated us right away since he was in pain. The office staff is very friendly and we didn't feel like just another patient. I felt they really cared. We had to pay out of pocket, since we don't have dental insurance and their charges were very reasonable. Of Course, who wants to go to the dentist, but I am excited we found a great one in Jersey City."

"Dr. Tina Naik-Puri is an amazing dentist! I was scared at first, but she made the procedure as pain free as possible. She kept asking me if I was okay during the whole process. Dr. Naik-Puri spent time afterwards to answer all my questions thoroughly. I can truly say that she takes pride in taking care of her patients and making them feel better. If anyone is looking for a dentist who really cares for her patients and their well being then I'd say look no further. Dr. Tina Naik-Puri is the way to go!!!"

"Hudson Family Smiles is the best!!. The office is super welcoming and they are great with keeping on schedule. No long wait!! I travel from Manhattan to come here for all of my dental work. The whole staff is extremely professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend coming here!!!"

"I would drive over an hour to see Dr Naik because she is the only dentist I trust with my teeth. Other dentist I would walk out with an expensive bill while her fees are very reasonable. I highly recommend Dr Naik to everyone for their dental needs."

"Absolutely great dentist. I need to get the fillings in my molars replaced every year since I grind my teeth and this was easily the least painful and best experience. Friendly staff, nice office and she is a great dentist. Definitely will go back."

FAQs

Do you offer a free whitening consultation?

Yes. Contact us for a free in-office whitening consultation, and Dr. Naik-Puri will talk through the options for brightening your smile.

Can I get an evening or Wednesday appointment?

Evening and Wednesday appointments are available upon request. Call the office and we will do our best to find a time that works for you.

How do I get to the office without a car?

We are on the corner of Kennedy Boulevard and Jewett Avenue in the heart of McGinley Square. The office is reachable by bus and is within walking distance of the Journal Square PATH station and the West Side Avenue Light Rail station.

How often should I come in for a cleaning?

Most people do well with a cleaning and exam every six months. If you have a history of gum disease or a higher risk of decay, we may recommend coming in more often, and we will explain why.

What should I do about a chipped or knocked-out tooth?

Call the office right away and describe what happened. Keep any pieces, rinse gently with water, and avoid chewing on that side until you have been seen.

How white will my teeth get?

Whitening lifts staining, and how much it lifts depends on the natural shade of your teeth and what caused the staining. Crowns and fillings do not change shade, so we look at the whole smile before recommending anything.

What can I do about bad breath?

Persistent bad breath usually has a cause worth finding — gum inflammation, dry mouth, or a tooth that needs attention. Bring it up at your visit; it is a common question and a treatable one.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Bring a photo ID, your insurance card if you have one, and a list of anything you are currently taking or have had treated recently. If another office has records that are relevant, ask them to send those over ahead of time.
