Alpha Plus Dental on Harvard Street in Brookline has a wonderful, caring staff, both administrative and medical. I can honestly say that after going here for years for everything ranging from cleanings, fillings and basic consults, to complex crowns and even implants, I've never had a bad a experience. They were available in the off hours when I was bleeding. They were kind when I had questions and mentally available with care and patience when I wasn't. And perhaps best of all, their experience runs deep and transcends nations and generations. For example, my dentist, Dr Shuster, may be young, yet has the chairside manner and knowledge of a wise, well-traveled and experienced professor. I also believe one of her parents was a dentist in Germany, and her grandmother was ALSO a dentist in a different country before then! At least a couple of other nations' expertise is represented. Had the pleasure of working with Dr Kovtun, the owner, on a number of occasions and he's concise, clear and candid in ways few doctors (or people!) can be. The only downside at this this office is that they're quite busy; so plan ahead and come early, as they help a lot in emergencies and book out a bit at times. It'll be quality care when you're in your chair--as well as at the front desk--as this is basically a dental office with pretty epic skills that I've come to love. read more

I can't say enough about Alpa Plus Dental. I am a long time patient and have many complicated procedures, and am always happy with the results. Dr. K is exceptional in both results and "bedside" manner. He always goes the extra mile to do right by the patient. The office staff is also excellent! Galena always takes the time to call your insurance and fully explains the costs prior to any payment. Alpha Plus Dental is a top tier dental practice, and I highly recommend them. read more

Great service, the staff is friendly and helpful, altogether I've had a really good experience every time I've gone. Thank you!

I have never been so comfortable and cared for at a dentist's office in my life. Before coming to other dentist appointments I would always have anxiety, appointments were often painful and uncomfortable. Here I feel at ease! It's more like a spa experience for me as Dr. Kovtun is the most gentle and patient dentist I have ever met in my life. The dental hygienist are also top notch and always do the best, most comfortable cleanings. I highly highly recommend Alpha Plus for any dental needs!! read more

Best quality Dental Care I have received for more than ten years in a row. Came to Alpha plus with gum and tooth issues that needed immediate attention, Dr Kovtun was prompt in providing me with a treatment program which has yield excellent results. My recent visit to replace a crown, In my opinion, was done very skillfully with attention to details, which is the quality trademark of Alpha Plus Dental. It feels good when you know you have a great Dentist providing you the best care right here in your own neighborhood. read more

Really poor experience scheduling a cleaning here. This was I think in the fall of 2014 or 2015, and looking at the other reviews it seems that the staff might have changed here. I called ahead of time and inquired about the price. The lady was nice, and I was given a quote, which I though was fair so I scheduled an appointment. When I actually did come in, it was a different person than over the phone at the register I assume, and I was told that the price was ~$20 more. I was confused and tried to ask for clarification, but the lady at the register was a bit rude and insisted that the price was never the price that I was quoted. Internal communication was definitely lacking here. And it breaks my trust in a place a bit, because then I'm not sure whether I'm even paying the right price (and it's dental care so it's not cheap). I was also told that I would need to have 4 fillings done, and was quoted a high price for each. I had a second opinion when I came to the Tufts dental school, was seen by multiple dentist instructors and told I only need 1 filling. The cleaning itself however was good, the technician was professional and did a good job. read more

I've been going myself and with my daughters (13, 11 yr olds) for years- this is a family oriented business with very kind humans both behind the desk and in the office. All work is explained and done properly. We suggest Alpha Plus to your family! Highly recommended! read more

I'd give the folks at Alpha Plus Dental 6 stars if I could. They're absolutely phenomenal. I was without dental insurance for a few years and chose APR after doing some research went, since general dentistry is somewhat unnerving for me. Rashmi is so sweet and considerate. She told me what she was doing as she did it and often checked in with me as my procedures continued. Not only that, but the staff, as a whole, are professional, kind, and very efficient! I am no longer apprehensive about dental care and now look forward to my regular cleanings. Thank you, Alpha Plus Dental, for helping me re-establish a healthy and stress-free relationship with my teeth! read more

Its Very Good place！！Dr. Koupon it's very nick personal! I would like to share my experiences for everyone :) read more

I went for a routine cleaning because I had not gone for a while. I had better experiences. Although I knew I may have a cavity or two. I was not experiencing any other issues with my teeth.Without doing x-rays they decided to tell me I have 5 cavities. They said dont worry lets book your appointment for the fillings then we will do a x-ray as well. They told me that I have TMJ and that they would need to make a special mouth guard for me. My wisdom tooth is decaying that I need it pulled. Thankfully I am not quick to trust what everyone tells me even if they have an DMD. The moment I walked in there I felt uneasy with the experience as if they were trying to pull money out of me. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. I went for a 2nd opinion to a specialist . They did a exam of my teeth with x-rays. Yes, I was told I have 2 cavities not 5 and that no I dont have TMJ. MY teeth overall are in good shape. Needless to say I dont trust the Alpha Dental practice in Brookline. There are better more competent doctors out there. They are quick to point out issues and send insurance claims without actually doing what they are suppose to do. Moral of the story trust your gut and get a 2nd opinon if a doctor or dentist makes you feel uneasy, read more

I get my teeth cleaned here every 6 months; surprisingly it's done by a dentist and not a hygienist. I have also gotten fillings done here on a couple of teeth. I had a sensitive tooth and got a fluoride treatment once. All top notch work! Friendly & chatty dentists and front office staff. Most importantly, I got my wisdom teeth extractions done here. No swelling, almost no pain - quick & easy. And a tooth was impacted! I have good insurance so my out of pocket is very low, hence I cannot comment on the cost. I highly recommend this office. It's in a nice clean safe neighborhood. Stop by at Trader Joes on your way home. read more

good news first. It is extremely easy to get a same day appointment. Bad news There is a reason for this. They rip you off. Literally I called first and was told I would get a free consultant and when i was trying to leave they tried to charge me even though they did nothing for me. I haven't had a cavity since i was 14 and i am now 34. This is the first dentist since then, that has told me I have a cavity even with out taking an X-ray and I didn't even go there for that reason. Before you pay, get a second a opinion! Update! Just got a second opinion and had no cavities. SCAMMERS read more

Wonderful staff and great dentists. Always accommodating and understanding. Highly recommended for your regular dental visits and any necessary work needed! read more

I wouldn't recommend it to anybody to use them for any your dental work this office unreliable and can't be trusted. I can share with my experience. In 2016 I needed a deep cleaning work and dental office offered to me do it and has been done incorrectly and year later I end up in other dental office who is specialized on the deep cleaning and has been referred by the Alpha Plus Dental office. Why they didn't send me to the other office at the first place? They realized after the fact whatever is done in my mouth is has been done incorrectly and no one say anything to me that they are accountable. read more

Dr. Shutter is awesome! She communicates with you every step of the way! I was having pain under my back gums for my wisedom teeth were coming in and she pulled up an x-ray and explained to me how my tooth was impacted. She is so good! I would definitely recommend her! read more

Best dental experience, Dr. Kovtun and the staff are amazing, highly recommended for all of your dental needs. Thank you Alpha Plus

Excellent. Am getting all the mercury fillings out of my mouth. You can get recontaminated if it isn't done right. Alpha takes every precaution and I am very happy with them. Meticulous and professional. Highly recommend this practice. read more

Recommendation for the office management: stop being so nice to everyone! I went in again for a routine cleaning, with an appoitment, well it must have been a crazy day for them because all dental chairs were full with the waiting area. For the time I was there, there were TWO emergency walk-ins, one with a temp crown that fell off, and another patient has terrable pain. Knowing how nice the office management is, they took both of the patients without an appoitment. I know people go there because it is a good office, but sometimes it hurts people like me, who do have an appointment. On the other hand if I was the patient with critical pain, I would not care too much about a waiting patient with routine cleaning. read more

I saw two dentists here. One, Dr. Natasha V., did a great job diagnosing my cavity problems, charting a plan to correct for them and starting on one of the cavities. I had to come back for the follow-on work and ended up scheduling it with another dentist who worked weekends. Dr. Boris is the one who filled my teeth - taking two visits to do this - and every filling he's touched now hurts (these visits were 3 months ago). I've gone back to get it checked out and he says the teeth look fine. That's not ok in my book, I'm going elsewhere. Note that if your insurance only covers amalgam fillings (like mine does), this office does not work with silver amalgam. They use the composite only. Higher copays is just what I was looking for! read more

Back in October, I went in for a quick oral exam and x-ray to confirm whether I had lost a filling the night before and if it would be okay to hold off on dental work until I went back to my home state and saw my family dentist one month later. The dentist I spoke to was perfectly fine and gave me the OK to wait a month before getting work done. I was then told my insurance would handle everything, and I walked out without any issues. Fast foward to 8 months and 8 days later. I receive a bill in the mail simply stating that I owe $115 and a hand written note that says to "please pay this amount" because my insurance plan was maxed out. We are now PAST tax season, and there were absolutely NO details on this bill about the actual dental work that was done 8 months ago. I called insurance, and they said the form was processed within 24 hours of the initial dental service, as well as the fact that I should not owe more than $86, regardless of whether I had maxed out my claims for the year. I called back Alpha, requested a new bill with actual details, to my email as well as to my home address. I also clarified that the bill should not be more than $86, to which the receptionist denied this was the case. We confirmed that I would be getting an email following up and a new bill in the mail with //details// about the dental work. FIVE WEEKS LATER: Still no news from Alpha. I call insurance again, and I have THEM call and confirm again. There should be a new bill in the mail. Not only that, they won't stop sending me requests for check-ups, even though I was very clear that I didn't want to receive these any more. I'm very uninterested in ever going back. Terrible service, regardless of dental work. If you're looking for a same-day appointment, consider holding off for 24 hours until you can find an appointment elsewhere. This is not worth the headache. read more

This place is very unprofessional and seems like a scam! They tried to cheat me out of the money I paid up front by never returning it to me months after my insurance company sent them a check. They were then hard to get a hold of and sent a check instead of crediting my card. While I was there, they talked openly about money saving tactics in front of me and the whole place seemed very dingy and almost like some sort of front. I am frustrated with myself for even giving them a shot and will certainly not be returning! Zero stars!! read more

Was looking for a new dentist and decided to give Alpha Dental a try after a buddy of mine recommended it. Wasn't really sure what to expect but as soon as I came in the staff were very friendly and welcoming in addition to the office being very clean. I started off with a basic cleaning and x-rays...the usual fare when you go to a new dentist. Again I thought the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The cleaning went smoothly and painlessly. I will definitely be back and will make sure to thank my friend for the recommendation. read more

Dr. Michael Ofir has been one of the most amazing dentists I've ever experienced. I had my wisdom teeth extracted and was a little nervous, but Dr. Ofir put me at ease and made me feel real comfortable. He's very attentive and listens to all of your concerns. He's goes above and beyond by sensing the tone in your voice to your body language. Very in tuned with the patients feelings. He's an amazingly nice and generous orthodontist. I have recommending Alpha Plus Dental Center to several of my colleagues and friends. I no longer live in Brookline, but I still make the trip, because of the great service and friendly atmosphere. read more

I keep coming here because the dentists themselves are skilled professionals who instill confidence. The problem is the reception staff; they are absolutely terrible and are holding this practice back. If they would just get some better supporting staff, I'm sure they'd get a lot more clients. read more

Had my teeth cleaned at this office the other day. New patient special was a great deal. The front desk staff was very friendly. Lina, the hygienist was warm and professional. I had some sensitivity and I warned her in advance. She was very gentle. Will definitely come back for my next cleaning. Thinking about the zoom whitening procedure... will probably do it soon. read more

I have never written a Yelp review before, but I can safely say that I won't be going to this office again - I live in Brookline and moved from out of state, so when I had a painful cavity, I wanted it fixed asap. I was foolish for choosing an office without doing any research, but I couldn't have anticipated for them to be nearly as unprofessional as they were. I went in for a cleaning and inspection of the cavity causing me pain. I didn't get into a chair until 20 minutes after my scheduled appointment. After looking at my mouth and taking an x-ray, was told that I have several cavities, which is not abnormal for me, so I went about scheduling a filling for the most painful one. This was done by Dr. Kerry and another woman, who were both very friendly and tentative. Soon after I had the filling done without any issues. I avoided getting the others filled due to cost purposes. However, a month or so later I was experiencing pain in a different side of my mouth, so I scheduled another filling. This time I was sat down 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment, after asking twice if I would be sat soon. I finally sit down, and was rudely greeted by Dr. Boris who I had never met before. Before even opening my mouth to show him where I was experiencing pain, I was told to show him my bite. After glancing at my smile, he told me that I have a severe cross bite which will get significantly worse over time and that I need braces immediately (I have seen an ortho before, and have been told my bite is not that bad). He said that the cross bite is the reason for my pain on top of my cavities. There were no x-rays, and this was all said within a two minute span. Telling a 23 year old woman that she needs braces immediately is not something to be said lightly. He then quickly exited after poorly explaining what is going on in my mouth, and left me to have my filling done by Dr. Kerry. Needless to say I was pretty upset about the situation. Dr. Kerry, the hygienist, and the receptionist were all very kind and apologetic for his rude behavior, but to me his lack of consideration for his patient was completely unforgivable. I certainly do not recommend going here. The facilities seem out of date, and the Dr. Boris doesn't have your best interest in mind. read more

They are good what they are doing but when it comes to see you on time of your appointment that never happens. You always sit at the office waiting room for over 15mins. And it happens every time I have an appointment and I am coming here for over 6 to 7 years. And if you don't ask they will never tell you how long you will be waiting. So you can understand my disappointment and the doctor never apologizes only the receptionist does and she's great. If it wasn't because the hygienist and the dentist seem so care less with your time this office would be a great dentist office. read more

This place rates above one star because of the terrific work of Dr. Kerri Bourgeoius. She took care of my fillings, is wonderfully pleasant and did a terrific job. She also attempted to re-do my cleaning after my initial cleaning at Alpha Dental lets a good deal of tartar behind, to the degree that I'm wondering why I bothered with initial cleaning anyway. In my first visit, I was looked at by a hygienist, then the dentist, Dr. Boris Lipovetskiy who signed off. Given the shoddy work, I can't shake the feeling he was more concerned about getting me in for follow-up visits (and more of my money). To be honest, aside from Dr. Bourgeoius, I feel I got screwed by this place (it's also very overpriced). read more

This review is really for Xiomara, the dental assistant. Such an amazing person, never in my life have I encountered anyone who I really felt was looking out for my best interest at the dentist and was honest. She is what the caring profession is all about, she blew me away! Thank you Xiomara!! read more

Had my teeth whitened by Zoom technique. Results were good (so far) and I'm pleased. However, the treatment I received from all levels of staff -- dentists, assistants, receptionists -- was extraordinary... even though I had an expired coupon. They even did a lot of pre-cleaning that my regular dentist had missed. read more

I love Alpha Plus dental! I have to say how lucky I got when I found them doing a google search. I used to have a little fear of the dentist however from the moment I walked in there I felt comfortable, all of the staff and I mean ALL are amazing!!! They are so friendly, caring, and helpful I actually love going to my appointments they have changed fears into a fun time you will always get a laugh with Lina (the hygienist) she is awesome! And Dr. Kerri saved my smile she and her assistants are great! I could go on and on but I will keep it simple...go there they are great qualified and they changed my smile read more

I did not check any reviews about this dental office and went there out of convenience. The doctor Natalya Veksler seemed trustworthy and knowledgeable during my first visit when I had regular cleaning done. However when I went in for the second visit, for an extraction of a tooth due to her recommendation, almost everything went wrong. She did not explain the procedure to me saying only that it would be a simple extraction...The process was painful and the whole ordeal lasted almost 5 hours! During which I was crying the whole time due to discomfort and the pressure put on my jawbone, fear, and stress. Dr. Veksler was unable to pull the tooth out after significant amount of time trying to, in the process breaking the tooth a couple of times. During her struggle, another doctor (Boris Lipovetsky) was passing by and asked if she would like some help (until now she was doing everything by herself without any assistants). Both of them did not seem to know what they were doing and only caused me greater pain and confusion. Eventually she had to drive me down the street to a different office where they specialize in oral surgery, saying that "they have better tools there." She drove me there in her own car, going in reverse on a one-way while not being noticed by a nearby cop, finally leaving me in the care of a different doctor to finish the surgery. The next day I woke up swollen and in pain, thinking that the previous day was a nightmare. It truly felt that way. I never want anyone to experience what I have gone through. Other customers/patients need to know that the people that work in that office are not professionals. Now I don't know what the damage is from what she has done but when I go to check this week I am going to a different office only by a recommendation from someone I know. read more
