Alan Alterman, DMD

Dr Alterman is the best! I've been seeing him for almost 30 years and brought my son in to him too. He's really great with kids - so many people say they are terrified of the dentist but I'm happy to say I've never felt that way with him, and even my son enjoys going. 5 stars isn't enough!

Second appointment bringing my now 3 and 5 year old to see this incredible dentist. I'm blessed having come across a dentist who is so friendly, informative, and simply wonderful with children and the parents. He is patient ,empathetic, and a world of knowledge and experience. The staff are equally friendly and lovely to talk to. My son went in feeling nervous and weary and left jumping in joy not being able to wait to come again. I leave feeling equipped and confident that I can take care of their teeth and if anything were to happen,I know he would be there to take care of the situation in a trustworthy manner.

Google review (Michael Mastro (Michael J. Mastro)): Been my dentist since my baby teeth (im now 36 lol) Everyone says they dread going to the dentist, and they look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I actually enjoy going to my dentist! (I really do) Everyone in the office is very friendly and extremely helpful! They really do spoil their patients With all the care they put in to make you comfortable!

My 8 year old son had such a fear instilled in him from a previous horrific dental experience. Thanks to Dr Alterman and his kind ways he made my son so very comfortable. So happy that we found him!

Dr. Gertsman is the best dentist on staten island.
