I found Dr. Lindsay Gadzik in 2017 after our family dentist had moved away. The first new dentist I went to declared that I had over a dozen cavities which needed filling based on the x-rays she took and an exceedingly brief visual inspection. I went to Dr. Gadzik, knowing she had a stellar educational background, for a second opinion; she immediately put me at ease by explaining her reasoning behind what she was doing. She took an initial look at the x-rays, noting the areas that caused concern. Then she explained that an area where the enamel had worn away should reveal “sticky” dentine beneath. Dr. Gadzik took the time to perform the cleaning herself and decided there weren’t any issues that needed immediate fixing, preferring to look at better x-rays on the next visit. Her willingness to explain also helped me understand that the changes in color between my gums and the tissue above it were not the result of impending gum disease, but of natural differences in keratin content. I followed that visit with another the following year, after Dr. Gadzik had moved to Southern CT Dental Group (SCTDG). This time, she explained what we had talked about previously and that she was very intent on keeping the tooth structurally intact as much as she could. Prodding the teeth revealed some areas for concern. The x-rays further confirmed that. At this point, I was happy to accept the fact that the fillings needed to be done, but Dr. Gadzik took the time to place an intraoral camera on the problem tooth where you could see the typical black mark that visually identifies a cavity. My experience with Dr. Gadzik helped me figure out that a lot of dentists will stop at the 80% solution that x-rays give you. The problem with x-rays alone is that you’re basically relying on a very subjective visual measure of how black something is while imaging a material that is not completely homogenous. In rocketry, you can shoot brand new rockets to outer space and dump them in the ocean each launch for billions of dollars or you can do the hard work of actually understanding how materials structures and rocket trajectories work. Then you can shoot the thing into outer space and very carefully land a giant rocket on a robotically-controlled barge in the middle of the freakin’ ocean like SpaceX does. Dr. Gadzik is the SpaceX of dentists. The staff at SCTDG were extremely accommodating throughout my experience with them. Because of my time constraints, they offered an earlier appointment than the earliest they originally had, cutting into their lunch time. And I was able to schedule my follow-up appointment the next day because of that, before I disappeared for another year.

Had a great visit with Kelly who cleaned my teeth and my Doctor Dr.Dibendetto . Kelly was gentle, informative and made me feel comfortable. Dr.Dibendetto was friendly and was so easy to understand regarding my treatment. Would recommend this place to all family and friends.

Everyone in the office was very kind and welcoming. They took great care of me when it came to quickly scheduling appointments before the end of the year.

Dr. Gadzik and Alyssa make a great team. By far the least painful dental care visits (coming from someone who never actively sought visits to the dentist!) and I felt sure I was in competent hands. Dr. Gadzik is great at her job and has a very comforting presence. Alyssa is very cheerful and a joy to be around. Absolutely recommend this duo!!!!

Dr. Lindsay is a long-standing friend of mine. I shared with her my most recent x-rays after years of shunning the dentist, and she evaluated my problem areas with the utmost attention to detail. Whereas most of my previous providers seemed to rush through this assessment, Dr. Lindsay took the time to present a thorough treatment plan, a roadmap, if you will, of my oral health objectives. I feel much more optimistic after my visit, and my treatment feels more manageable!

Taylor Blankenship

I've been coming here since I was five years old! Everyone here is basically family to me, I'm a typically hard patient because I stopped coming in high school because I developed a needle phobia and ended up having terrible cavities & needing crowns, Dr. Lindsay has been so patient with me and getting me to have a nice healthy mouth as well as her assistant Allyssa, I used to need laughing gas as an adult but 2 years later I barely need novacane I just feel so comfortable in this environment! I recommend this office to absolutely everyone of every age, I guarantee you won't find a better place than this!

Tanya Galpin

This is the place to go with your children! Dr. Claudia is amazing! The staff is amazing. They are all so welcoming and make you feel like you don’t want to leave. My kids get so excited to go there. So thankful I had found this place for them! Thank you guys! The Galpin’s will be back soon!

Dr Dworkin is the best dentist out there! He truly cares about his patients and is an excellent dentist. His office staff is warm and friendly and it’s always an excellent experience!

Donna Cirkot

Everyone in the office, whether it is Ansonia or Southbury, is always pleasant and a joy to speak to. I love Dr Jay and would NEVER think of going anywhere else. BEST Dental Group you will ever visit is close by!

I've visited this office three times so far, and simply put, these have been the absolute best experiences I've ever had at a dental office. The staff is very polite to say the least; extremely personable and made me feel at home. The actual dentist (Lindsay Gadzik, HUGE shoutout to her, she is awesome) was welcoming, but most of all, she was very transparent with what was going on with my teeth, what they needed, and why. Most dental offices are money grabs who tell you to do unnecessary procedures in order to drive their business. SCDG (if they actually go by that acronym) had the health of my teeth and the health of my wallet at the top of their priority list. The icing on top was me having the remote to Roku TV they had draped from the ceiling so I could watch whatever I wanted while my teeth were being worked on. I'm not a super enthusiastic person, but they just may have earned themselves a client for life. We'll see but so far, so great. 8 thumbs up.

I have been a patient of Dr joe and now Dr Jay for nearly 60 years and have always received the best care possible. I would never think of going anywhere else. Feels too much like family

i Had to repeat what I said earlier because I couldn’t have said it any better if I tried to do it again. Alyssa made me feel welcomed by recognizing me immediately. She knows how nervous I get when it comes to these procedures, so she did a great job of distracting me with great conversation. Dr. Lindsay however was quite the people person herself. She remembered me the minute she walked into the room and added that extra bit of comfort that I needed prior to the procedure. That’s something you can’t teach. She also took her time on my teeth, and thoroughly explained what she did, and showed me the before and after pictures so I could follow along. The ability to treat the patient like an individual is what keeps people coming back. And that’s why I’ll be there again for my 3rd visit next week! Thank you Alyssa And Dr Lindsay for another amazing visit!
