I went to Dr. Shumantov in good faith and he botched my implant and did not finish the job. He kept $4000 of my money and insulted me after having a bipolar episode in his office. This guy is not a good dentist , and he is rude and condescending. If you want a dentist that has aggressive mood swings look no further.

I've put my trust in Dr. Shumantov's care, and I was not pleased. He is most of the time, out of the country, put cheap/temporary bridges inside my mouth which breaks, and falls out. He (Shumantov), doesn't seem to value me, as a patient, although I have to pay money from own pocket for treatment. Dr. Shumantov shows up late for my appointments, and I he never calls to check on the status of my oral health. So many of these so-called/alternative dentists, seem to big hustlers. So, would not recommend this particular dentist, on the account of my experience with him. We have be very careful when choosing doctors and dentists etc. Some I will have to say, are discriminatory, in the way they treat certain patients, of different ethnic groups. I will search for a more quality dentist, who cares about his patients. Alot of them give poor care, yet charge high fees. They don't accept most health insurance plans. Well, this is all I want to say. So, please take heed, and be careful. Thank you.
We live in such a capitalistic and materialistic society, where we don't have care for fellow humans. There needs to be a restructuring of values, as Dr. M.L. King, Jr., beautifully pointed out. Well that's all I need to say.

Dear Dr. Veselin, I am always thoroughly impressed by your expertise and kindness during my appointments.
Thank you for being a truly spectacular dentist. I am filled with gratitude that you are always eager to readily help me out whenever I need it. I felt completely safe with you in charge.
After the oral surgery, I was very impressed at how quickly the pain subsided, and how much better I felt because of your efforts. Thank you for your skill and professionalism.

You provide the very best of care, and that is an incredible and awe-inspiring accomplishment, Dr J.M.Warwas MD.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Jun 3, 2022Previous reviewDr Shumantov took time to listen to me , He had a polite attitude and was compassionate about my dental problem.
During the surgical procedure I noticed His fine motor skills and a great manual dexterity.
Dr.Shumantov is easy to talk to and passionate about providing care to his patient. He is caring and concerned about how the patient feels during procedure, acting with hight moral and professional principles.
Considering dr. Shumantov knowledge and as He is using most up-to-date dental technology , He is not only a Master of Science but He has outstanding artistic abilities to restore my teeth and smile! He is a nice guy with a pleasant demeanor.
I highly recommend dr. Veselin Shumantov as a dentist and surgeon with excellent problem solving ability.

Dr. Veselin Shumantov is a wonderful dentist.
After a very unexpected and risky situation with an implant, he took me under his wing to remedy the problem right away. I am now on the path to complete healing and proper replacement thanks to him. Even though I was dealing with a bad situation, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise because now I know an excellent dentist. He is caring and competent. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking the highest level of care.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ann P.Manhattan, NY1513280Jan 18, 2016
YOU DO NOT NEED A ROOT CANAL!!!
6 months ago, my tooth crumbled and 2 dentists told me I needed a root canal & implant. It's not good to have metals permanently set in your body so I found Dr. Shumantov by searching for bio compatible implants.
When I went to see him, he said I DIDN'T need a root canal at all and would be better off with a crown. I was THRILLED!!!!! A root canal is a really terrible procedure. Not to mention it has also been linked to cancer due to the chemicals used.
Dr. Shumantov was super professional and finished the crown in 2 visits. He uses the latest tech and most of the process was painless. The crown also fit perfectly from Day 1!!
Six months later, the crown still feels like any other tooth! (Crowns have a tendency to get infected, give you bad breath, and fall off after several months if not done properly).
I can't recommend Dr. Shumantov enough! If anyone tells you that you need a root canal, go see him for a better opinion!! (Or to have it done with materials that aren't harmful / toxic).
Thanks again Dr. Shumantov!!! I'm so lucky I found you!!! :)Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ellen M.Caldwell, NJ02Jan 27, 2013First to Review
I cannot say enough of how lucky I feel finding Dr.Shumantov. His professionalism as a cosmetic dentist and the top-notch quality work makes him truly unique. The multiple ceramic implants he put in started feeling as the natural teeth from the moment they were in. And they are beautiful! He created a well planed schedule and made sure that I understood every detail. His is very patient and pays his full attention to how I responded during the procedures. He suggested the post-op options that addressed my concerns of using some specific medications. Dr.Shumantov always accommodates the scheduling conflicts and finds an extra time when I needed it.
It has been over a year since I first came to his office and every next visit only reaffirms my initial experience of working with a dentist who really loves his job, thinks of his patients and all around is the best dentist you can find...
Thank you so much, Dr. Shumantov, you are FANTASTIC!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Oleg P.Princeton, NJ0172Jan 12, 2016
I have been a patient of Dr. Shumantov for several years. I had a complicated case requiring bone grafting, old titanium implants removal and placing new multiple zirconium implants. Before my initial visit to Dr. Shumantov I had spoken to several top dentist surgeons in New York and New Jersey area. First of all, almost none of them had experience and knowledge in the area of holistic dentistry. For that reason they were extremely hesitant working with zirconium implants. Nevertheless, they were the top paid doctors! From what I know,(and I researched this topic extensively) zirconium implants require much higher precision and skill level than titanium implants. Dr. Shumantov was even able to fix the crown that the doctor who initially put it refused to fix, because he was not sure if he could do it without breaking it! Dr. Shumantov was able to do it in no time.
At this point Dr. Shumantov already placed multiple zirconium implants for me and the result is excellent. He works with titanium implants as well.
Dr. Shumantov is very patient and detail oriented. He is one of the rare dentists that stands behind his work.
If you are looking for a dentist that has it all, don't look anywhere else. This is your doctor!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Kris E.San Diego, CA03781May 12, 2015
I live in San Diego, CA. but have a New York Invisilign dentist, Dr. Daniel Noor, whom I think is the best. Dr. Noor assisted me in getting my bite corrected with Invisalign via long distance work in designing the appropriate models for the trays, and is one of the few dentist who are advanced enough to use lingual (back of teeth) attachements. He was able to create a space where a tooth was missing from birth to correct my bite. Now that my treatment is complete it was time to find an implant doctor. Due to having metal allergies, I needed to find a doctor who places Zirconia implants. Unfortunately there are only two such doctors in all of San Diego county. After receiving conflicting information from one of the Zirconia specialists here and an implant surgeon, I asked Dr Noor if knew an implant specialist who would be willing to look at a Pano x-ray to give his opinion. He referred me to Dr. Veselin Shumantov, stating that he was an expert in his field.
My problem was that the root of an adjacent tooth next the space we provided was curved in such a way that it impeded the space where the implant was to be placed. The surgeon in San Diego who felt he could do the implant did tell me that it would be placed right up against the curved root. My intuition told me that was not a good idea even though he said it would be fine. After emailing Dr. Veselin he responded immediately advising me that there was not enough room for a full size implant and that I would risk having to have a root canal on the curved root if I proceeded with the implant. He may have saved me a lot of future pain and expense.
Dr. Veselin with no financial incentive, was willing to to assist me with my treatment review just out of the love for his profession and willingness to serve the people. I would highly recommend anyone in the Tri-state area considering an implant to make an appointment with Dr. Veselin as their first stop. After reading the other reviews, I see finding highly skilled Zirconia implant doctors in your area is just as sparse as San Diego. So why not see the most experienced and highly recommended first. You should be so lucky to have such a doctor in your area. He is obviously someone who cares more about the patient than the dollar. I have done extensive research on implants, and even if I were not allergic to metals, I would still go with Zirconia.
Studies I have researched have shown that over many years titanium corrodes and leaches into your biological system, and there is a belief that corrosion if titanium implants may be the reason for implant failures. Here is a great article for further reading: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3753052/
Hey, don't forget they used to think lead fillings were safe and nontoxic, so could they have also been wrong about titanium?? JMHOHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
