Bergen orthodontics review
Maayan S.
I feel so lucky to have found Dr. Sandman. He recently worked together with my jaw surgeon for pre and post surgery Invisalign. He made a typically daunting process so easy by communicating and educating effectively throughout.
I started with him when I was around 10 years old as a heavy mouth breather with a receding jaw and super crooked teeth. He educated us on the issues that come with mouth breathing and all the different routes we could take to avoid future problems, but listened when we said we weren’t ready for any sort of surgical intervention. He then made my smile beautiful and functional, concealing my overbite. At 24, I got diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and immediately thought of Dr. Sandman knowing this was the issue down the line he warned us about. I felt so comfortable to come back to him when I was ready and wholeheartedly trusted him through the process to communicate well with my surgeon and keep me informed along the way. Reflecting now at almost one year post op having completed Invisalign treatment, I am forever grateful for Dr. Sandman who guided me through one of the toughest decisions and events of my life! Dr. Sandman is equipped to handle the most complicated cases and I sincerely recommend him to be your future provider.

My family has been at Dr. Sandman’s office for years now and we trust him. He does an impeccable job, is very professional, and always offers the best for his patients. The staff is also very nice and do well in their respective areas as well. I wouldn’t doubt even for a second to refer anyone to his office. He’s the best!!

Dr. Agarwal and her team walked me through each step of the treatment process and what to expect. Always willing to answer questions, and checked on me after I received my Invisalign to make sure everything was OK. Very helpful staff as well!
