Fantastic experience: Courteous and patient staff! Always great service!
Fantastic experience: Just love my hygienist she does an excellent job and is extremely knowledgeable
Negative experience: STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!!! They assure that the procedure is covered and nearly a year later they send a bill for over $300. These people are dishonest, do not trust them.
Negative experience: Put two small rubber pads in for my my dentures said it would be a small fee. It was 500$ then they said 140$. Expensive, didn’t communicate well
Positive experience: Front desk are the best girls work in the front desk very helpful. One little problem I had was talking to the x-ray technician. She’s so quiet soft-spoken I could hardly hear I’m 72-year-old man. Oral experience was very good.
Negative experience: I am changing my highly rated review from a couple years ago and will never recommend this place again to anyone even though I have sent them many people. I am leaving this with a 1 star for the dentist and the dental hygienist, not reception. Over the years we have struggled with reception and errors made on their part of birthdates, insurance information, and appointments. There seems to always a problem with reception, which leads to frustration and curt dismissive behavior the front staff, without care for the feelings of the client who gave the correct information and is being told they are wrong. They said that they sent a text message, (so if you do go make sure you have a text message or you don’t have an appointment, don’t take word of mouth), I was even asked to prove that no text message was sent and that the phone confirmation was incorrect, although they could not prove on their end that they sent a text message. There was no accommodation made for the appointment, for the originally scheduled time made 3 months in advance, nor an apology. The only option was to schedule for a different day at a different time. You would hope that the client would be accommodated, especially after the many years of having their service. You would think that being a service provided that the conversation that transpired would have focused on making things “right”, instead of dismissive and stating that what they were being told was not accurate on that part. I pointed out that if their account of the interactions for the appointment was different from what our accounting was. How can both accounting of the events be the same if the statements are different. (Are you stating that the client is lying???) I saddened to change my review as the dentist and hygienist are absolutely amazing, however in good conscience after the many events of inaccuracies and errors on the part of the first people you encounter and last people you encounter recommend or stand by my previous review and allow anyone else to subject themselves to be treated so poorly. The repeated line was “I completely understand “ my response is if you understand then the treatment being received would not be happening. You can’t understand and still treat your client as you are treating them. I apologize to the hard working dental staff, but the behavior or reception is not something anyone should face. Also, as my husband and son were at the office the previous day for my son’s appointment the receptionist were talking in Spanish negatively about a client who was waiting outside the door. He looked at my son and said “this is why you need to know Spanish as they are assuming we don’t. That way you know when someone is talking about you in an unprofessional manner. “ so to the receptionist, you should not assume that individuals do not understand what you’re saying. Also being receptionist you are the customer service, the face of the company, remember that.
Negative experience: The staff at this location are generally very good. The wait times on the phone and in the office are reasonable, which is a plus. However, I have a significant issue with the doctor himself. During my appointment, he seemed quite rude. I had come in for a second opinion on a tooth that I thought required a root canal. Throughout the appointment, he kept touching the tooth with a metal object. When I expressed discomfort by shaking, he made sarcastic remarks. After my appointment with the endodontist, I was informed that I actually didn’t need a root canal. In fact, all it needed was a refilling done. When I returned to the doctor, he was unhappy about cleaning up the cavity into the filling because, in his opinion, it needed a root canal, despite the endodontist’s recommendation. The refilling work was sloppy. The bite was not properly done, and the surface where the filling was applied was rough. I’ve had several fillings in my teeth from my previous dentist, and I’ve never left with a rough surface at the filling spot. They always ensure a smooth finish. When I returned to the doctor on the same day, he made some snarky comments before he went in to fix the bite and smooth out the filling surface. Overall, I believe his bedside manner is terrible.
Fantastic experience: I love everything about Babcock Dental Center, the people, the location. I wont go anywhere else!!! Rebecca, Cindy, Allison the hygienists are so kind and professional! Dr. Ahmed is wonderful! The front desk, all of them are so helpful! Love it there, thank you!
Fantastic experience: As a patient at Babcock Dental Center, LLC in Melbourne, Fl. I've had fantastic experiences from start to finish because I finally found a dental home where I feel safe & cared for . I had shared with the staff that I'm 71 yrs old & always have bad anxiety when having 2 visit a dentist & that it was currently happening while speaking to them. However, because of thier excellent customer service, they gently calmed me down,made me feel safe & in good hands, & I never felt rushed,etc ( plus, there was a t.v. in the examing rm, etc ). I highly recommend my dentist, Dr. Mohammed M. Ahmed, who was thorough in clearly & slowly explaining things to me, & impressed me with his patient care skills as well his gentleness during my painless tooth extraction.I'm sure that everyone coming here will find an incredibly, welcoming team .

Fantastic experience: Babcock Dental is a great place. Dr Amed is awesome. Deb my hygienist is the best. The staff is very proficient and really good at what they do.
Fantastic experience: Best dental office in Brevard. Dr A is truly amazing. Has a very conservative approach when it comes to intervention, and supports my wholistic preferences without any pressure or corporate bias.
Negative experience: After nearly 8 years and never a cavity or other issue with my teeth at this office, the dental hygienist disregarded my request to not use the vibrating scaling thing. She mumbled something and shoved that thing in my mouth after she finished using the manual tools and polishing my teeth. Like she needed to make a point that I didn’t have a choice. Well, I do have a choice and I’m looking for a new dentist office.
Fantastic experience: Very caring staff, they do great work, and they aren't pushy about having procedures done.
Fantastic experience: It is always a pleasure to come in and have my teeth worked on They are the best
Fantastic experience: Best and totally painless care. And this includes a root canal!
Fantastic experience: Dentist and staff are top notch.
Positive experience: No one made me feel like my dental issues were of concern to them, short of what could be upcharged from what my plan covered... what my plan covered was made to be inadequate and instead of doing anything, they rescheduled months out any actual work on my mouth. My concern is they are hopng I'll be back in pain so they can pull my teeth instead of any effort at saving them. My hygienist was nice. The billing area, not so much - speaking Spanish regarding me in front of me... the doctor clearly uninterested in my dental hygiene and made even a cleaning unavailable to me claiming I needed deep cleaning... so I got no cleaning... I don't understand... What they did get was a full set of xrays they were able to charge for... being that i received no care at all... and an appt two months out for who knows what kind of care... guess i have to wait and see... Biggest issue was that beyond what they could charge for in addition to my full coverage insurance, i wasn't going to get. It was made clear that my medicare/medicaid full coverage insurance was not enough and my actual care was dependent on me paying more...
Fantastic experience: My wait to be seen was not long. The Dentist is very knowledgeable, told me in layman's terms his diagnosis than explained my options than gave me the authority to choose which option I would like for him to do. The staff is very pleasant to deal with
Fantastic experience: Allison did a wonderful job on my teeth. Only if she could change the Teeth, lol! Very patient and great personality. Thank you, I hate going the dentist & pain.
Fantastic experience: These folks operate like a well oiled machine but gently with love . Fast but not rushed
Fantastic experience: Everyone is professional, super nice, and informative and very patient :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer support and service. Heather is the best hygienist. She is skillful and thorough as well as professional and personable. Thank you Babcock Dental.
Fantastic experience: Have been going to Babcock Dental for over a decade now. Each dentist has been great. Now I live much further away and I still go to Cindy my technician! Their new office is lovely, Cindy’s the best, the front desk staff is wonderful. Thankfully, all the maintenance has resulted in me not having to use any of the new equipment and service he’s brought in. But it’s good to know it’s all there!
Fantastic experience: Very pleasant staff. Dental hygienist did a great job, basically pain-free.

Fantastic experience: Cindy was great. She gave me valuable feedback and cleaning went well. Very personable too.
Fantastic experience: Allison is the best ! Sweet person and excellent hygienist she never makes it uncomfortable. Very thorough and gentle!
Fantastic experience: I was very impressed with the care I received here. I initially made an appointment for a cleaning, but after experiencing a severe toothache, I called them to see if I could get in earlier, and they happened to have a cancellation. The check-in process was quick, and the hygienist who did my X-rays and cleaning was nice and professional. After my exam, the dentist explained my results and told me my options. As this was my first dentist appointment in four years, my anxiety level was quite high. They did an excellent job of making me feel comfortable. I will definitely be going back.
Fantastic experience: My Experience with Babcock dental was great wonderful job done
Fantastic experience: Only positive thoughts. The office staff and dental assistant were great. They are all friendly and informative. My new dentist Dr. Ahmed was gentle and reassuring.during the procedure. I am extremely satisfied with the service. Highly recommend this office and staff.
Fantastic experience: Again, the entire staff is very friendly and professional. Dr. Ahmed did 2 procedures in about 45 minutes-always checking to see if I was doing ok-everything went well and the procedures went well. I appreciate all that Babcock Dental has to offer-Great dentist!
Fantastic experience: Always great treatment. The front office staff is wonderful, professional , friendly and helpful. Rebecca did a great job, best hygienist. Dr. Ahmed is the best, will always see Dr. Ahmed, and his staff, for dental care.
Fantastic experience: Dr Ahmed had moved to a different practice and it had taken me a few years to find him again. I am 68 years old and have been going to dentist all of my life. This dentist is the best dentist I have ever been to. When I seen him, he had pulled his mask down and said check this out, he had grown a beard. He asked me how my family was doing and I told him that our 38-year-old son died last year he was so hurt. He has a few women working there, named Allison, Cindy and Rebecca. In my faith, they are all my sisters. We were all so happy to see one another. I feel like I am home.
Fantastic experience: I Love this Dental office, the Dr. and all the girls are always very nice!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Babcock dental for at least 15 years. I think they’re wonderful and Cindy always does a fantastic job.
Fantastic experience: Easy to schedule appointment take almost every insurance fast service and waiting time people in the front to the back or very friendly accent answer any questions that you have the doctor is very very excellent he takes his time and make sure that you have been taken care and if there is any extra concerns you may have he take care of it ASAP
Fantastic experience: All the employees are very nice. This is a very clean office. The DOC is super nice, and very caring. He made me feel comfortable and calm while he was doing the work I needed. I would recommend this place. It was recommended to me from a friend that worked there. Glad I went Tuesday Oct.7, 2025 Great Hygienist. Had a cleaning,, gave me recommends for my sensitive teeth.
Fantastic experience: My first time with Dr. Ahmed after 20 yrs. With Dr. Quadri. I have to say I was nerves but Dr. Ahmed and Manuel did a great job on keeping me so Relax. Excellent job.
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff! Very friendly & Cindy the hygienist I think her name was, was so so sweet. Thank you everyone.
Fantastic experience: Rarely does a business score 100%, but I can honestly say that I have only had terrific experiences at Babcock Dental. Everyone working here - from the front office staff, to Dr. Ahmed, to the dental associates - has been kind, courteous and a top-notch professional. My bills are reasonable, and clearly spelled out in advance of any treatment, so I am not surprised. Yep, there is a lot to like about Babcock Dental Center.
Fantastic experience: Everyone was great. I am 71 so now I need more done to my teeth. They found a crack in one tooth and recommended a crown before it gets worse to maybe not need a root canal. Hygienist was very caring and took her time with me. Doctor was patient and professional and easy to understand. Getting crown in October and deep cleaning in December. Have to go 4 times a year now for cleaning but have insurance, so helps a lot. Office staff also easy to understand and thorough.
Fantastic experience: The tech was gentle and very caring while doing the cleaning procedure
Fantastic experience: I feel that the personnel at Babcock Dental was very professional and thorough. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a Dentist.
Positive experience: The dental hygienist Vani did a great job. I had just had a tooth/molar extraction and she was understanding of my sensitivities. The gum numbing helped, and so did her gentle and thorough work.
Fantastic experience: What a pleasant surprise. Staff friendly and helpful. The nurse or ma staff friendly and helpful. T h e Dr slow calm explained everything. I had a pretty hard procedure felt comfortable and pain free. Best experience ever at a dentist office.

Fantastic experience: The hygienist was excellent and explained the process as we went along. Office staff was friendly and competent.
Negative experience: I went to get checked out and after an hour and a half of waiting and multiple x-rays, I was left waiting for a supposed plan to follow, which they never gave me or sent to my email, and they want a review, but I still haven't fixed my mouth, they charge me 100 dollars and I have no idea if they're going to treat me or not. , note : if the email is wrong you could use text to my phone number.

Fantastic experience: No problems here; the hygienists are prompt and thorough; the doctor has a gentle mastery of dentistry. I should know; my Dad is a retired dentist.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Ahmed and his whole staff are very professional, very kind and very gentle. They are genuinely concerned with their patients having the best experience and treatment. I had to have a crown replaced and I was impressed by how efficiently the doctor and tech worked together, their concern for my comfort, and with the results. I recommend this practice 100%!
Fantastic experience: I was scared to death to go to a dentist as it has been far too many years. Such a wonderful experience I had here. I can't wait to continue my treatment plan and keep them as my dental provider.
Fantastic experience: Dr Ahmed and his staff were absolutely great. Fast, professional, and very knowledgeable. They will be my go-to dentist for however long I live in Melbourne!! Susan in accounting was great and helped me with my insurance coverage and my tech Alison was just fantastic!! Thank you all!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Ahmed did an exceptional job even though I was not an exceptional patient. I'm suffering from TMJ so at times during the procedure I was unable to keep my mouth wide open, but he remained diligent and was able to finish the procedure. Kudos to him!
Fantastic experience: I have had an awesome experience @ Babcock Dental . The staff are execptionally professional and were meticulous with my treatment & concerns by asking insightful questions I had not previously considered . What truly stands out is Dr Ahmed's expertise and dedication in getting the job done painlessly . He is an exemplary healthcare professional .
Fantastic experience: I really liked the office. It was clean and the associates were professional and nice and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Missed my appointment by getting in late. A lady at the front desk very nicely rescheduled it for a couple hours later, I believe her name is Leticia. Mercedes, the new hygienist, was absolutely awesome continuously commenting and giving recommendations as she cleaned my teeth. I've been going to this dental clinic for about 3 years and the care they provide gets better every time !
Fantastic experience: Nice clean office and no wait time. The hygienist took her time and gave me suggestions how to better take care of my dental health.
