Gentle Dental Rochester Reviews

    Rochester, NH

    I have terrible dental anxiety which kept me from going to a dentist for almost 10 years. I knew I needed a lot of work done so I finally made the appointment here at Gentle Dental and I’m SO glad I did. These people are so incredibly kind and compassionate. They weren’t judgmental or pushy. They explained everything to me in detail and didn’t make me feel bad or rushed. I had cavities filled today for the first time in over 10 years by Dr Israel and his assistant Jalyn and it was as great an experience as one can have at the dentist. They were so kind and calming, took tons of breaks and checked in. Truly could not have had a better experience. I will recommend this place and specifically Dr Israel and Jalyn to anyone who will listen!!

    My visit to Gentle Dental was great. Dr. Entezari was super nice and friendly. He patiently listened to all my concerns and explained everything in detail. I asked a lot of questions as I am an engineer and curious. He answered all those questions very patiently and clearly. He is a very smart and talented dentist. He was able to polish my veneer in few minutes and I am very happy with the results. He is very experienced and skilled. He knows what he is doing. I will need to do filling on my teeth and he kindly fit me in his schedule on time. More importantly, he is caring, kind and loves to go beyond and that makes him special. Jalyn, his assistant was super nice and caring. She patiently took the X-Ray of my teeth and was speaking with me the entire time as a great host. She even took care of a wound on my finger that was bleeding for some reason. Not a tooth! Kindness is there. The staff at the front desk are also very nice, friendly and helpful. They are professional and explain things if there are any questions or concerns pertaining to the costs and insurance. Michelle, the office manager, is very nice and professional. She patiently explained to me why the new patient fee was not covered by my insurance since Aetna covered X-Ray only once every 5 years and I had used that once before seeing Gentle Dental. In conclusion, I strongly recommend Dr. Entezari and Gentle Dental folks as they are professional, caring, nice, kind, and helpful!

    I don’t remember names, but everyone working there is so nice, even the front desk staff. I got my first root canal done and it was not bad at all, almost less painful than some fillings I’ve gotten in the past. They made me feel comfortable during the process and I could tell they truly cared. They’re also funny which is a bonus!

Our Comprehensive Orthodontic Services

At our Rochester, NY office, we offer a full range of orthodontic solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of every patient. Whether you’re seeking treatment for your child, teen, or yourself, we provide effective, modern options designed to improve your smile, bite, and overall oral health.

Traditional Metal Braces

Time-tested and highly effective, traditional metal braces remain a popular choice for correcting moderate to severe alignment issues. These durable brackets and wires allow for precise tooth movement and can treat everything from crowding to bite misalignment. Today’s braces are more comfortable and discreet than ever before, making them a reliable option for patients of all ages.

Clear Ceramic Braces

For patients who want the strength of traditional braces with a more discreet look, ceramic braces offer an ideal solution. These braces function like metal ones but use tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in with your smile. They’re especially popular among teens and adults who want effective results without the visibility of metal.

Invisalign® Solutions

Invisalign® clear aligners provide a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth without brackets or wires. Custom-made for comfort and precision, these removable aligners are ideal for busy adults and teens looking for a flexible, discreet orthodontic option. Invisalign is great for correcting mild to moderate spacing, crowding, and bite issues with minimal lifestyle disruption.

Early Orthodontic Treatment

Early evaluation—typically by age 7—can help identify developmental issues and guide jaw growth before they become more serious. Our early intervention treatments in Rochester aim to correct habits, create space for permanent teeth, and reduce the need for more invasive procedures later. We work closely with families to create age-appropriate treatment plans that support long-term oral health.

Adult Orthodontics

It’s never too late to improve your smile. We offer a range of orthodontic options for adults, including clear aligners and ceramic braces. Whether you're fixing shifting teeth or finally treating an issue you've had for years, our team is here to help you achieve a healthy, confident smile—at any stage of life.

Orthodontic Emergencies

If a bracket breaks, a wire pokes, or something just doesn’t feel right, our Rochester office is here to help. We provide guidance on how to handle minor issues at home and offer prompt appointments to address urgent concerns. Your comfort and safety are our top priorities throughout your treatment.

Affordable Financing Options

We believe everyone deserves access to high-quality orthodontic care, regardless of budget. At our Rochester, NY office, we make treatment more affordable with flexible financing and special programs designed to help individuals and families manage costs without stress.

Flexible Payment Plans

We offer customized payment plans to fit your financial situation. Whether you’re paying out-of-pocket or using insurance, our team will work with you to create a plan that spreads out the cost of treatment over manageable monthly payments.

Discounts for Families

We know that orthodontic care is often a family need. That’s why we offer discounted packages for families with multiple members in treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best age to start orthodontic treatment?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. Early evaluations help identify potential issues with jaw growth or tooth alignment before they become more complex. While treatment doesn’t always begin this young, early detection allows us to plan the most effective care—whether during childhood or the teen years. That said, orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, and many adults also achieve excellent results.

How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?

How Long Does Orthodontic Treatment Take?

Orthodontic treatment timelines vary based on the type of issue being corrected and the method used. On average:

  • Traditional braces: 18–24 months
  • Clear aligners (e.g., Invisalign®): 6–18 months
  • Early interceptive treatment (Phase I): 6–12 months

Your orthodontist will provide a personalized estimate based on your needs and treatment plan.

Are clear aligners as effective as traditional braces?

Clear aligners like Invisalign® can be just as effective as traditional braces for treating mild to moderate spacing, crowding, and bite issues. However, for more complex orthodontic cases—such as severe misalignment or jaw correction—metal braces may provide better control. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the best option based on your smile goals and clinical needs.

Will my insurance cover orthodontic treatment?

Many dental insurance plans include partial coverage for orthodontic treatment, especially for patients under 18. Some plans also offer adult orthodontic benefits. Coverage often includes a fixed amount or percentage of the treatment cost. Before starting, our Rochester team will help you verify your benefits and explain your out-of-pocket costs so there are no surprises.

What should I do if I experience discomfort with my braces?

Mild soreness is normal after braces are adjusted or when starting clear aligners. You can manage discomfort with over-the-counter pain relievers, orthodontic wax for poking wires, and saltwater rinses. If you experience severe pain, broken brackets, or anything that doesn’t feel right, contact our Rochester office. We’ll schedule a visit to resolve the issue promptly and keep your treatment on track.

Can adults benefit from orthodontic treatment?

Absolutely. Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for kids and teens, more adults than ever are choosing to improve their smiles. Whether it's correcting shifting teeth, fixing bite issues, or boosting confidence, adult orthodontics offers effective solutions at any age. With discreet options like clear aligners and ceramic braces, many adults are able to straighten their teeth without interrupting their lifestyle. Our Rochester office provides customized treatment plans designed for adult needs, helping you achieve a healthier, more confident smile—comfortably and efficiently.
