Frederick Stange, DDS

One of the absolute best offices I have ever been to! Dr. Stange and team are so nice and the most understanding! I had a lot of work I was procrastinating and Dr. Stange not only got it done in one visit but I was shocked when my check from the Insurance company came 3 business days later. To top it off it was almost for the full amount! Win win since I also got the credit cards points. I would give 6 stars if I could as my smile has never looked better.

I’ve been going to Dr Stange for three years now and couldn’t be happier. His practice is a huge step above your typical NYC dentist. You notice the difference the moment you walk into the waiting room, which is well appointed, and you are greeted by two helpful and very competent receptionists.
Dr Stange himself is different from other dentists in that he genuinely cares about the health of his patients and clearly spends a lot of time and money on making sure he is up to date on the latest in dental technology and practices. I always feel like he has my best interests at heart when he makes a recommendation for a procedure or device. I would recommend anyone to this practice.

I came to Dr. Stange because I was looking for a dental appliance to help with obstructive sleep apnea. I did not do well with CPAP and after doing some research and trying all of the «as seen on TV» and over the counter versions, knew that I needed to try a custom made dental appliance. Dr. Stange took impressions of my teeth and made a SomnoDent device for me. That was back in 2011. Since then, I have enjoyed a really good quality of sleep with the device. It is comfortable and allows you to speak and even drink with it in place. It requires minimal care to keep clean and is so much better than anything you can buy OTC. I went for a sleep study recently to test the efficacy of the SomnoDent, and it prevented apnea while in place. If you have OSA and are looking for an alternative to CPAP, I highly recommend talking to Dr. Stange.

Dr. Stange and his staff are professional, welcoming and go the extra mile to ensure that you have the smile you desire. After speaking with Dr. Stange on the phone at length, I decided that I wanted him to make porcelain veneers for me. I trusted that he would be able to provide me with a natural smile based on his skills as a cosmetic dentist, artist and photographer. He worked in conjunction with my orthodontist, Dr. Meier in Florida to do all of the pre-​planning so that when I arrived in New York for my appointment on a Friday, he was able to prep me for the veneers, design them, make them and put them in on Monday. It was a seamless process, and the end result was more than I could have ever hoped for. In addition, he gave me a filling for a cavity, made a night guard to help me with my TMJ all in 2 visits. He continues to work with my orthodontist in Florida to ensure that my TMJ is treated successfully. I would highly recommend him for general dentistry as well as cosmetic dentistry. I only wish I lived closer! Many thanks to you and your staff!

Dr Stange is skilled, patient and caring. I was referred to him for extensive cosmetic dentistry due to TMJ. He made me eight crowns for all my lower molars. The initial procedure required seven hours sitting in the dentist chair. Getting dental work is never fun but Dr Stange made it as comfortable as possible. He was very responsive and gave me as much Novocaine as I needed to ensure I felt as little pain as possible. He even had glasses that allowed me to watch movies during the long procedure.
Days and weeks after the procedure, Dr Stange personally followed up with me several times to make sure that I was feeling fine. In the end, the crowns worked perfectly to relieve my TMJ issues.

I read the other reviews and am glad they had good experiences… I did not.
During the two procedures he did I was burned with an acid type substance he was using, one cause a hole in my gum and tooth and the other a blister on my lip. He was passively apologetic.
After my cleaning Fred (he encourages being called by his first name) checked in from the doorway and sped off… when I was asked by the hygienist if my questions were answered, i said no and I was shuffled off. His responses to requests for information were empty and any real response was like pulling teeth.
The office is lovely, that’s true, bananas on the counter and perfume in the bathroom are nice touches and the staff has perma smile.
I would rather have a competent experienced dentist over a well choreographed set.
If you want a cosmetic chiseled barbie smile, he seems to be okay at that, for any real work he does not know his stuff. Although he says the right things with his Dale Carnegie approach beneath the masks there is no real concern for client health, just client dollar.
Find a provider more concerned with procedures and patient care than plastic platitudes and save yourself allot of angst and being left with incompetent work that he refuses to explain or repair,

I first started going to Dr. Stange after a I experimented with a few random dentists around NYC. One pushed teeth whitening, the other used outdated equipment… I just felt like I was never gonna find one that a) took my insurance and b) wasn’t in a rush and c) was good at what he/​she did!
I found Dr. Stange as a reference from a coworker… he actually recommended his partner, Dr. Zadik, but to this day, I never even met Dr. Zadik, and I don’t care if I do… The whole experience at the office is amazing… I love Dr. Stange, he takes his time, explains things well, and all that… BUT on top of that, the dental hygienists and the front desk are probably the nicest people I have ever met. Additional pluses are free wifi, bananas, and email/​sms reminders.
The most important part is my teeth have never been in better shape. I started using the sonicare product, which I was skeptical of at first, but I haven’t had a cavity in 3 years…
So long as I stay in NYC, no man is putting his hands in my mouth other than Dr. Stange…
Am I the only one who doesn’t call him Fred?

If you need a dentist in midtown, Dr. Stange is the one! I usually don’t write reviews about dentists, but when I moved to the city over 5 years ago, I needed a new dentist and on recommendation of my partner, I made an appointment with Dr. Stange’s office.
Aside from having a very professional, warm staff, I was won over because I had a problematic crown that my previous dentist suggested that I have completely extracted, but Dr. Stange was able to not only save the tooth, but took such care to have it sit properly within the gums. I have not had any problems with the tooth since!!!
If you are looking for a dentist in NYC, your search is over!
