It pains me to say this, but for a 40 year old man I am a HUGE BABY. The inescapably, but RATIONAL…read morefear of pain and the sound of the drill have caused me to avoided the dentist for the past eight years. Until a horribly cracked tooth forced my hand earlier this week, there was nothing in this world that could have dragged me to one. That said, like all matters in my life I turned to the people I trust and respect in times of necessity. For the past two years I have been lucky enough to have DR. Katarina Pavlicic as a client of mine and felt comfortable seeking her advice as the pain mounted and the need for treatment became unavoidable. Surprisingly, on her vacation, she took my call and was kind enough to listen while I whined on and on. She gave me many suggestion and solutions on dealing with the pain with the bottom line being that I could see one of her recommended colleagues, or wait and see her in two days. I chose the latter and have been thrilled I did so. From the moment I arrived and was greeted by Rene at check- in, to the dental assistant Ellen's amazing way of being comforting and funny I was put much more at ease than I expected. I relaxed and put my trust in Katarina. Before I knew it, I was walking out the door. It was not painless, but it was nothing like I had feared and I will definitely be back for continuing treatments. (NOT RUNNING BACK, BUT WILL BE GOING) I thank her and her team for everything, Chris (I apologize if I got any of her teams names wrong)

*UPDATE* The complete story is in the reviews below. My daughter was seen at Advanced Dental over…read morethe summer. She had a very minor cavity on an upper tooth and a more serious issue on a lower tooth. The dentist who worked on her tooth decided to work on the easier issue on the top and did not work on the more serious issue with the lower tooth at all. Shortly afterward that dentist was no longer employed by Advanced Dental. However, instead of notifying us about the situation, no warning was given and no one from Advanced Dental let us know that from that point forward they would no longer be willing or able to treat our daughter. Instead, they waited until my wife took time off from work to bring our daughter in for her next appointment and when she arrived, she was told that our daughter wouldn't be seen because they no longer had a pediatric dentist. So, apparently something that could have been avoided with a 10 second phone call turned into my wife missing a half day of work and my daughter getting no dental work done. In the meantime our daughter's tooth began to get worse and Advanced Dental refused to complete the work they originally promised would be done. We tried to find other dentists but no one could see her at all or immediately, including the so called referrals that we received from Advanced Dental. Eventually, we found a dentist in Stoughton called Children's Dental Health Center and they could see her relatively quickly, but by the time she was seen her tooth had decayed so badly that she was almost in need of a root canal. She lived in pain for weeks. Thankfully, her tooth was saved but it was extremely close. As you can see, since then all we've been told by Advanced Dental is how they did nothing wrong and how they did all they could. Laughable. But, in response I would suggest that if a business of any nature starts a project and is then incapable or unwilling to finish it, at the very least they should inform or possibly warn the customer in advance. Obviously, a child suffering is extremely serious, but I would even hope that a roofer would let me know that they couldn't finish my roof before the next rain storm. I would hope that a mechanic would let me know that they couldn't finish fixing my transmission prior to me coming to pick up my car on the day I was scheduled to leave for a cross country road trip. But, I guess that kind of common decency was, in my opinion, lost on whoever is running Advanced Dental. It seems like the only word their staff knows in NO. Obviously, I'm only one voice but it seems like there are plenty of other unhappy people who have used this company. I couldn't recommend any more strongly to be weary of this dentist and try as hard as you can to find another dental organization that will hopefully not just abandon you or your child mid-project. And like I already mentioned, my wife and I were patients at Advanced Dental for over ten years and our children have been going there since they were born. In my opinion, I have no other word to describe this situation other than outrageous!

If Dr. Matthew Manzi does not have a fan club yet, he should. After being to over eight dentists…read morein both the US and Canada and having endured many a painful procedure, I have finally found the best dentist in MA..., Dr. Matthew Manzi---hands down! I have never been to a dentist where only the tooth that is worked on is completely frozen---no face freeze and no pain, no anxiety. What is even more impressive is that he can take on teeth that some might say cannot be saved without a root canal and work his magic. For the first time in years, I am able to chew with comfort on my top right side. Did I mention that he also does Botox at a very competitive rate? Great for cosmetic touch ups (lines on forehead, crow feet or between your eyes) as well as for more serious and painful issues like TMJ. One stop shop! Go ahead, treat yourself today! Thank you Dr. Manzi! You are the best and my all-time favorite Dentist!

I showed up for a routine cleaning and was denied care because I declined X-rays--despite having them two years ago and knowing they're not required by MA law for a cleaning. I explained that I pay out of pocket and couldn't afford unnecessary extras, but the dentist brushed me off and told me to find another office. When I said I'd leave a review, another dentist arrogantly replied that he would just remove it. The issue wasn't just the policy--it was the blatant disrespect and lack of professionalism. I left without care and won't be returning.

I made an appointment at Weymouth Family Dental because it was close to my house and I have been avoiding this for about a year now. I am very pleased at my experience here. After years of neglect my teeth are awful. The dentist I went to previously I felt was very judgmental, she made me feel awful about the state of my mouth. Not here. Although I just went here for a cleaning I felt really good leaving here. The hygienist, Cheryl, was so wonderful. Thats really why I'm writing the review. She was so kind and made me feel much less doomed than I did when I walked in. She was encouraging and made me feel okay about all the work that needs to get done. I look forward to getting my smile back here.

And yet he attempted to scare tactic me into future serious procedures (due to age)...when a simple look into research would reveal that much simpler and cheaper procedures may be better options IF needed. In talking with my husband he also experienced the same thing with him. Tried to seek him on over $18000 worth of work. In reality, another very good dentist gave better and more helpful solutions for less than $2000. Simply put. I will never schedule another appt with him. I may see another dentist in the practice as I'm told others are reasonable and not salesmen out to make a killing on you. But bottom line. A dentist who doesn't even look at my mouth and the demeans my smile because he is more focused on cosmetics is not a good dentist who actually cares about your health. I don't trust him.

Coming to Stetson Dental Care, however, was the best thing I could have done. I decided to finally come here after some prodding from my parents to finally get some work done on my teeth. I'm not talking about just a filling or two, but major dental work over a number of weeks. After sitting down and having my financial options explained to me in the most easy to understand terms, I was told that they would do everything to make it as cost effective relative to my health and dental longevity as they could, and I'm completely under the impression that they're doing that, and then some. My biggest fear is the Novocaine, and pre-dental prep. Needles have never worked well with me, and with someone who has always had awful experiences, I can't believe I waited so long to come to this place. Dr. Khadivi is an amazingly skilled dentist, and his support nurses are just as great. He talked me through everything he was going to do, and proceeded in a way that nobody else had ever done before. My worries flew out the window, and when I came back the next week, any sign of my fear had gone completely out the window. A couple of my friends have asked why I've been feeling better about myself lately, and I can very positively, and absolutely say that it's because I've been going here to get dental care that I've so desperately needed, and recommend it wholeheartedly.

I worked primarily with Sandy who was quick to get back to me with scheduling and really worked with me to figure out an affordable payment plan through my insurance for the dental worked I needed done. She always answered me with a kind and positive attitude. Tooth pain originally brought me in so I scheduled a cleaning. After being extremely nervous the entire time I had the pleasure of meeting and having Jess there and she made the whole time much easier. After I left that day my nerves still existed but were much lower...thank god! Now for the second appointment I needed to have a tooth pulled luckily after meeting Dr. Shahram at my cleaning and informing him of my anxieties and concerns about the dentist he prescribed me something to take before my appointment. Although I was still hesitant I took the medicine and attended the second appointment. I can say this confidently that I did not feel A THING when getting my tooth pulled. He gave me all the proper amount of Novocaine and really took his time with me! Angie assisted him with the whole procedure and I really appreciated her patience. (I can be a lot) This office truthfully changed the whole dental experience for me. I can honestly say they eased my fears and I will not go anywhere else.
