Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing doctor
Dr. Vita is by far the most compassionate doctor I have ever had care for my health. He is educated in the most up to date medical techniques and is truly concerned with addressing my issues and getting me well. His whole staff gets top grades for compassion and professionalism. I waited a whole year to come for a consultation and now regret waiting. His experience has made all the difference in my recovery. Thank you Dr. Vita, Dr. Colavita and all staff.

I have depended on Dr. Vita's excellent dental care for many years and have always been impressed by his high standards and quality work. When I chipped a tooth recently, I had to decide whether to wait a couple of weeks to see Dr. Vita, or try his new associate, Dr. Olivia. I couldn't wait, so I was really pleased when her care turned out to be equally amazing. She was very gentle, made sure I never felt any pain or discomfort. And the work she did was PERFECT! It's great to know there are now two great dentists in the same convenient location.

You wait more than 2 months for an appointment. No insurance is accepted for any TMJ procedures. Costs are quite high for any treatment. Dr. Vita works with a chiropractor, whose cost is $1800 to $2400. One must also sign a document that requires a patient not to say anything negative about this dentist, agree not to sue, etc.

Dr Vita has been my dentist for over 30 years. He treats you like family and is only concerned about your well being not what his financial gain might be. He is a gentleman in all respects and has a wonderful staff that treats his patients with respect.

I have been a patient of Dr. Vita for many years. What I can say about Dr. Vita is that he is an excellent dentist and a compassionate human being. In addition, the office staff is kind and helpful. I would like to mention particularly Samantha, the dental hygienist. She is knowledgeable, professional and has a great personality. I highly recommend Dr. Louis Vita!

Dr. Vita is a wonderful, caring and the top of the list when it comes to having a dentist that knows what he is doing and goes above and beyond to making sure each patient feels they are his only one. I have been a patient for over two years and have seen Dr. Vita continuously after having reconstructive jaw surgery. He is the best TMJ Facial Pain Specialist in New Jersey! Don't suffer any longer with any kind of mouth or facial pain, go see Dr. Vita and you will be extremely happy you did!!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Vita's for the last 25 years. I trust him wholeheartedly. He is a perfectionist with his work. Several years ago I was experiencing pain in my jaw. Dr. Vita diagnosed me with TMj and helped me through it. He custom-made me a mouthpiece to alleviate the pain. He has also made done many crowns, caps and fillings for me. I have never experienced any pain. The office is very well organized, I have never waited any longer than five minutes. Staff is very nice.

Dr. Vita is amazing to say the least! I went to him for a second opinion and he recommended me to Dr. Piper for TMJ surgery. I can not thank him enough for all he has done in leading me on the right path to fix my TMJ problems. His consult was so detailed, took his time answering all of my questions and explained everything. After traveling down Florida to see Dr. Piper for the TMJ surgery, I am so thankful I have Dr. Vita nearby in NJ incase I need him, since Dr. Piper and Dr. Vita work to

Dr. Vita provides an extremely thorough initial examination and report and sound follow ups. This is an old school doctor who is focused on providing the best care and attention to his patients. He is a good listener and puts in place a sound plan. In 10 weeks he was able to change my life for the better. My prior 2 doctors diagnoses were wrong. His was right and I feel 100% better. He is the best and I am writing this from my home after my treatments have been completed. Highly recommend him!
