Featured Reviews for West Roxbury, MA

Jason

Gentle Dental West Roxbury

I have been a patient for several years now and had a positive experience. Dr. Shetty and Entela, the dental assistant, are professional, talented clinicians that weigh options and discuss the best course of action in a case by case basis, personalizing treatment for each patient. The front desk with Amelda, the manager, and Mileena are both helpful and friendly while discussing billing and scheduling. I recommend Gentle Dental West Roxbury highly.

Mike

Gentle Dental West Roxbury

Dr. Rozanski always clearly explains oral and overall health, specific problems, and every step of any procedure as he does his work; always in tune with his patient' s comfort ( or discomfort) level and ready to alleviate discomfort or pain as needed. He's also a perfectionist whose outstanding results speak for themselves. I've trusted him with my teeth for close to 30 years. Great helpful assistants and support staff at Gentle Dental West Roxbury.

Maria

Gentle Dental West Roxbury

Every time I go to this place, I get to experience a pleasant time with their very friendly staff. Choosing Dr. Shetty as my dentist was a very wise decision as she is very delicate with her hands, always concerned with my comfort and putting my needs first, along with her professional experience. Her dental assistant Zuleica is always making sure there is a smile on my face during the very appropriate waiting time. It is never boring. I highly recommend Gentle Dental in West Roxbury!! You won’t regret it!!
