Dr. Roman Akilov

Dental offices in Ridgewood tend to cluster along Myrtle Avenue, but Dr. Roman Akilov operates just off the main drag on Forest Avenue. The area’s mix of residential brownstones and low-key storefronts gives it a quieter rhythm than the busier commercial strips nearby. General dentistry here covers the expected—cleanings, fillings, extractions—without the frills of a spa-like practice. Some patients arrive for routine checkups; others need more involved work like crowns or root canals. Either way, the focus stays on the essentials.

The office sits at 70-02 Forest Ave, a short walk from the Fresh Pond Road station. Online feedback is uniformly positive, with a 5.0 rating based on 8 Google reviews. That kind of consistency suggests a practice that handles the basics well, though the small sample size means impressions are still forming. Unlike chain clinics, there’s no flashy branding or extended menu of cosmetic procedures—just the core services most people need at some point.

Questions about availability or procedures are best directed to the front desk by phone at (718) 821-4128. For first-time visitors, checking the map beforehand helps, since Forest Avenue’s numbering can be tricky. Some things don’t require much elaboration.
