Dr. van der Velden and crew are funny, down-to-Earth and generally awesome -- I can't imagine a better dental experience.

** Not Recommended ** As a referral customer from a neighbor…read moreand current patient, I was referred there for potentially tens of Thousands of dollars in restorative Dental services and my service and customer experience was instead both shocking and the worst! I took the trouble and had a current (less that a week old) full & complete mouth x-rays sent over and completed all their forms in advance looking for a professional experience and Guidence and pricing for implants. Imagine my surprise when I supplied all the data and forms needed they initially promised the first visit was no charge to get pricing given all that I provided. There after, there was literally nothing left for them To do but look at the work needed & Price?? They then insisted and required a $200.00 visit fee after committing to it being complimentary for a tens of thousands of dollars customer! What a scammer! Buyer be ware!

I trust Dr. Shustak's recommendations, and find they take a pragmatic and measured approach to dental health. I've experienced the laser drilling twice, and both times there was no Novocaine, no pain and a far more comfortable experience than the old fashioned drills in use by most practices.

Please be careful when choosing the right Dentist for implants. I am writing this review with…read morecomplete admiration for Dr Sirakian and his staff, as a third party to what my better half went through before she met him. She went through a year of hell because she picked the wrong dentist to fix her smile. She picked one in the area that promoted and promised a gorgeous smile. She assured Mary Ellen wonderful results. She butchered Mary Ellen, left her with a partial while healing that didn't fit. She wanted to rush through the process, and Mary Ellen could see that something was wrong. She was without a face for a year. Having to wear a mask, have trouble eating, and have to live with the mistakes a general dentist made until she healed as she searched for someone she could trust. By the grace of God, she came across Dr. Sirakian. His website was very informative. Explained everything thoroughly. We were met by his assistant Robin, who was so kind and professional. Mary Ellen sat with Dr. Sirakian, and could feel that she was in the right hands. He could see the significant damage the other dentist did. He said no one leaves my office without a smile. He actually fixed the partial so that she could walk out feeling herself until Dr Sirakian could fix her smile permanently. Dr Sirakian is an artist, he has several years of education above and beyond a general dentist. I accompanied Mary Ellen to her appointments and to her actual surgery. Each time we were both impressed by the whole office. Dr. Sirakian is simply the best with his technique and approach. The whole office is professional and really caring. If you need implants I encourage you to see Dr. Sirakian, you won't be disappointed. Teeth are important and the dentist you go to should know how to treat your smile.

My whole extended family (three generations) has had their dentistry taken care of by 'Dr. Rick'…read moreand his father before him 'Dr. Alvie'. I myself have been seen by them for over 50 years and I'm happy to say I have all my natural teeth, not a single denture! The cleanings given by his assistants are thorough yet gentle. Xrays are taken regularly. When I had my braces as a teen, coordination with the orthodontist was excellent. I would highly recommend Dr. Liftig to anyone looking for a kind and knowledgeable practitioner. He listens to my concerns and cares a lot about not just my teeth and gums, but my overall health as well. Personally, I would not see any other dentist, not because I am set in my ways, but because he has proven himself time and again to be the very best at what he does.

Dr. Liftig came highly recommended from a friend. Though I was a new patient, he squeezed me in the…read morenext day to investigate some discomfort I was having. Sure enough, he found a deep cavity, which we caught just in time. He is a gentle man, both in work and temperament. He never rushes, explaining every step and answering questions. It's clear that he really enjoys the people side of medicine and understands the power of a doctor who treats you with care and respect. I don't have dental fears myself, but I would recommend him to anyone who does. The filling required a delicate touch, and he showed great attention to detail in his work. I felt in good hands. The staff is very welcoming. It is a small practice that clearly garners longtime patients. I'm quite surprised to be the first Yelp review. I was paying out of pocket, and he made clear in the new patient information that a schedule could be found if the cost exceeded what I could muster that day. I'll be coming back and recommending him to others.

Make sure to cross check reviews with google before making a decision, because Natick Family Dental…read moreis great and I chose them because of all the wonderful reviews I read on google - and I am glad that I did. They are very communicative, responding quickly to emails and questions and are helpful with insurance issues. The hygienists are friendly and thorough. Dr. Bae does my exams and recommended a crown replacement based on what she saw on the X-rays. She was not pushy and patiently explained to me exactly what she was seeing on the X-ray. I decided to move ahead, and they pre-authorized with my insurance and gave me a pre-pay discount, so I knew exactly what I was going to need to pay. She was very patient and gentle throughout the procedure. So far so good with the new crown! The offices are clean, modern and well located with a parking lot just next door (and street parking in front) - however it is metered.

I was told by my dentist (not part of this practice) that I should consider having my wisdom teeth…read morepulled. I'm in my 50s and have no problems with my wisdom teeth other than a small cavity in the upper one. I went for a consult at Natich Family Dental and met Dr. Bhalla, their oral surgeon who recommended I have them all pulled. The experience was absolutely horrific. My expectation was either full sedation or at least gas. When I expressed that, I was told "well, this is how we do it." I was led to believe it would be "fine." It was NOT fine! Never should you do a procedure like that on an adult fully awake. I think I left in shock. Covered in sweat, shaking and white as a sheet. I will forever tell everyone I know not to have their wisdom teeth pulled as an adult and if they do, to go full sedation. I also called and sent pictures about a concern I had and Dr. Bhalla couldn't be bothered to call me back. I'm also mad at both my dentist and the surgeon for encouraging me to have them out at all. The top one had a cavity - that's what started it all. I ended up removing 3 perfectly healthy teeth and one that had a small cavity and really just needed a filling. If given all the info and if I could go back in time, I would NEVER have agreed to this course of action. It feels barbaric and like the whole thing was just to get money rather than taking care of patients.
