EXCELLENT Based on 145 reviews Posted on Beverly CandoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really enjoy bringing my girls to this Dentist. The staff has always been kind and the dentists are great! We never had to wait long to be seen and things seem to run as smooth as they possibly can each visit. The office is very kid friendly and even offer entertainment for younger children in the waiting room and TV’s on the ceilings whenever getting worked on. Highly recommended this practice!Posted on Gemma LancasterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Wonderful servicePosted on Andrea SamayoaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this dentist location everyone here is just so amazing from the front desk all the way back to where the magic happens clean environment, quiet, organized and don't get me started on how comfortable they make my kids feel they have such great souls to deal with children God bless every single one in that officePosted on Nick FanelliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I were a bit nervous to take our daughter for her first appointment. The staff was extremely friendly and very patient with our active toddler. So glad we found a dentist close to home who truly cares!Posted on Maria WEBSTERTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I even begin?? I'm a late 50's patient with a HORRIBLE fear of dentists, dental offices including dental staff!!! Anything dental and I'm running the opposite direction...quickly. I only went when I absolutely had to. This is no longer the case. I can't even begin to relay the gentle care Dr. Salhanic has taken with me. All the time he took just giving me space to get to a point where my dental needs could be addressed. His amazing staff, can't say enough about every single one of them. I felt understood, my fear was real and they understood! For the very first time in my life I felt safe enough to go for a cleaning. That may not seem much to some but for me that was huge. I went to the dentist for a cleaning without rupturing blood vessels in my husbands hands, without going through a box of Kleenex, without being sedated, for the first time WITHOUT FEAR. I felt like a normal person walking to my car after that visit! I'm not saying I'm cured but I'm so much better. I'm saying I've found a place where I'm understood. I've finally found a place where I feel safe! I've found an amazing dentist and a staff that truly care about me! I'll forever be grateful!
