Featured Reviews for Wakefield, MA

Ann

Gentle Dental Wakefield

Going to the dentist isn't what it used to be. At Gentle Dental Wakefield there is a pleasant atmosphere that starts at the front desk. Dee is always ready to help and have a pleasant conversation. Christopher gave me a cleaning the likes I have not had before, Dr. Amin has provided pain free and very carefully planned dental work. She is skilled and kind. Sheila and her charm and experience is a gem in this great dental office in Wakefield.

Christopher

Gentle Dental Wakefield

I recently moved to MA for a new job, and needed to quickly find a new dentist to rely on for cleanings, fillings, and other dental work. I have to say getting started with Gentle Dental Wakefield was painless, easy, and worthwhile. They are incredibly professional, and the staff is amazing. Special shout out to my favorite dental tech, Sheila, and also Dr. Amin for being awesome. Highly recommend General Dental Wakefield.

Thomas

Gentle Dental Wakefield

Been a patient since November, 2017, and have felt very comfortable with both the dentist Dr. Amin and her assistant Sheela. It all started with a simple teeth cleaning, and has led to a full mouth restoration of my missing teeth, where I now feel more confidence with not only my smile, but my ability to enjoy dining with my family, friends, and colleagues once again. Many thanks to Gentle Dental Wakefield.

Tom

Gentle Dental Wakefield

Just has my last implant visit and can now smile again! The whole process went smoothly. Hats off to Dr. Amin, Dr. Colon and Sheela. All three, along with the rest of the staff, were very professional and pleasant to work with. I have been a patient at this office for 10+ years and would recommend Gentle Dental Wakefield to anyone for their next dentist appointment!
