I met John Moakler as my dentist 28 yrs ago. I had a front crown fall out in my dish 1 day at lunch. The 1st question all the DMD's I called asked was about coverage. Dr.Moakler had me come in asked me my 1st name, took a look & told me what could be done. He was great, had a rough edge once in awhile but he made me feel comfortable and at home, even with the little dogs he had in the office. I miss him.

Dr. Moakler was my dentist for 20 years. I remember every time I went for my 6 mon. cleaning, I always felt at home. He & his staff were great! I was so sad to have to find someone else.
