About Wellspring Dental
Wellspring Dental is a dental practice on Clinton Street in Brooklyn, New York. TMJ treatment addresses pain, clicking, or restricted movement in the jaw joint, often linked to teeth grinding, clenching, injury, or stress. A custom night guard is the most common starting point, reducing strain on the joint and surrounding muscles.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Exceptional service. Was able to get a quick appointment to address my toothache. Very thorough exam. This will be my new dentist!
Dr Z was awesome, as was all his staff. Kind, excellent and patient. Another great experience on 9/11/25 visit. Staff are terrific - and work with care AND kindness. Thanks for my October 23, 2026 visit
I went for my dental follow-up and cleaning today with Janelle. I want to thank Janelle for making me feel at ease. She always goes above and beyond to make you comfortable and does an exceptional job! Thank you so much Janelle and to the staff at Dr. Zientz’s office.
I was experiencing tooth pain in New York and Dr. Mitch was able to see me next morning, immediately helped game plan of course of action made me feel so much better. 10 out of 10 recommend!!
This was my first visit to Wellspring, and I was so impressed! They took more comprehensive photos and x-rays than I've ever received from a dental practice. Everyone was kind and patient, and the dental hygienist, Jen, gave me the best cleaning of my life with absolutely no pain. I needed a referral and received one for an oral surgery practice right by my house that also has wonderful reviews. For those that care about this type of thing, Wellspring doesn't feel at all like one of those slick, impersonal, VC-funded dental practices that are all over BK. I never felt like I was being sold something I didn't need, and the practice felt really rooted in the neighborhood. I highly recommend it!
Only exists to gauge me for money. Told me I had to replace fillings for cavities that were already filled. Overall wanted to do 8 different fillings between replacing (I’ve never heard of a filling needing to be replaced before) and new cavities. Went to get a second opinion at my own expense and the second dentist said my teeth were perfect and saw no issues. Truly disrespectful and only trying to make money off of you.
My wife, my daughter, and I have been going to Wellspring for nearly ten years. It has been a consistently friendly, professional and pleasant experience.
The hygienist was great!
Semi-annual checkup and cleaning went so smoothly, gently and quickly with Janelle; Couldn't ask for anything more . . ... And the x-rays? She saw right through me!
Excellent local neighborhood dentist office. The whole team is a joy, from the front office receptionist, the dental hygienists, and the doctors. Highly recommend this friendly and kind office.
