About
Nestled in the vibrant, diverse heart of Sunset Park, Brooklyn, M & G Dental Center has stood as a cornerstone of community oral health for nearly a quarter of a century. Located at 759 4th Avenue, this family-oriented practice has built its reputation on a foundation of trust, clinical excellence, and a genuine commitment to making high-quality dental care accessible and comfortable for everyone. Since its establishment, the center has evolved from a local dental office into a comprehensive care destination, serving generations of families in the 11232 zip code and beyond. The practice's name itself reflects a personal touch, often representing the founding practitioners, and signifies a legacy of personalized care in an era of corporate dental chains.
The core mission of M & G Dental Center is to provide exceptional, patient-centered dentistry in a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment. The team understands that dental anxiety is a real barrier for many and has meticulously cultivated an office atmosphere that prioritizes patient comfort, clear communication, and education. They believe that informed patients are empowered patients, and they dedicate significant time to discussing diagnosis, treatment options, and preventive strategies, ensuring every individual is an active participant in their oral health journey. This philosophy extends to their bilingual staff (typically fluent in English, Spanish, and often Mandarin or Cantonese), which is crucial in breaking down language barriers in the linguistically rich Sunset Park community, making dental care truly accessible.
What truly sets M & G Dental Center apart is its unique blend of old-fashioned patient relationships with modern, state-of-the-art dental technology. The practice is equipped with advanced digital imaging, including low-radiation digital X-rays and possibly intraoral cameras, which allow patients to see precisely what the dentist sees, demystifying procedures. This commitment to technology improves diagnostic accuracy and enables a wide range of in-house treatments, from routine care to more complex restorative work. The clinical team, led by experienced dentists, possesses deep expertise across general, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry. Their approach is conservative and proactive, focusing on preserving natural tooth structure whenever possible and designing treatment plans that are both clinically sound and tailored to the patient's individual needs, lifestyle, and budget.
The practice’s unique value proposition is its deep community integration. They are not just a service provider but a trusted neighbor. This is evident in their flexible scheduling to accommodate working families, their thoughtful approach to managing dental emergencies for existing patients, and their engagement with the local community. They have built a practice where patients are known by name, where dental records span decades, and where care is consistent. In a neighborhood marked by constant change, M & G Dental Center provides a reassuring constant—a place where high-quality dentistry is delivered with compassion, respect, and a personal touch. This combination of technical proficiency, empathetic care, and community focus creates a distinctive identity that large corporate dental groups cannot replicate, making M & G Dental Center a beloved and enduring institution in Brooklyn's dental landscape.

Customer Reviews
Great experience here, I’ve been a patient of Dr. Guillen since I was 13 yrs old. He has gentle hands, is thorough and explains everything throughout the different procedures (cleaning, braces, root canals, ect) and uses the latest equipment to make sure you get the best care you can get. Great customer service and conveniently located by the subway and bus service. Love the customer service and the goodie bag is a nice touch, highly recommend!!
So sad to give them a one star as the doctor is amazing but …
I called the office regarding issues with my insurance claim, as the payment has been delayed due to errors made on their end. Unfortunately, the front desk staff member who handles claims was unhelpful and unwilling to acknowledge the mistake. Instead of taking responsibility, she was rude and dismissive.
When I asked for her name, she refused to identify herself and stated she did not feel like giving her name, which I found very unprofessional. During the conversation, she also hung up on me while I was still speaking.
I do want to say that the doctor was excellent and provided a great cleaning experience. However, the front desk staff is the first point of contact for patients, and professionalism there is just as important. I hope the office addresses these customer service concerns, as it significantly impacts the overall experience.
Extremely rude, wait time is very long and it felt like I was at the vet because the Doctor was talking to me like if I were an animal. He treated me very unprofessionally! Like if it weren’t for me and other patients he wouldn’t have a job so he needs to stop acting the way he does. Never again am I going back and if anyone is reading this please find another place, it is not worth it.
Other people I know have gone and they had the same experience :(
This clinic, if it can be called that they makes appointments for multiple people at the same time, they say whoever came first will be served first, regardless the appointment, therefore the wait it can take hours, as well once inside you could wait forever, as I did I even fell asleep because the so called dentist took forever to get to me, and the reason is because there is only one dentist for everyone, because of that they also fill inside each room with a patient, which I feel that the dentist to get to everyone does a rushed job. Therefore, DON'T GO, only for a cleaning is the only thing I can recommend.
This dentist uses old equipment. They should upgrade the facility. Not only that.... Wats the point of making a appointment? I had to wait 2 hours!!!! This might be the worst dentist experience ever in my lifetime.. And when I have questions he answers me in Spanish and the co-worker could not understand a little bit of English... So they had to bring in the receptionist to translate....
