There is also a small parking lot in the back. When I enter the building, I go downstairs for general dentistry. There is a small waiting room with a few chairs and the hygienist will bring you back to the room when ready. I never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes before meeting the hygienist. From February 2022 to September 2024, I went to Capitol Hill Dental for all my dental visits mostly for just cleaning and exams. The front desk staff and hygienist were always very friendly and we had great conversations. My teeth came out clean and were healthy. During my visit in September 2024, the staff informed me that next month Corporate has moved the general dentistry dentist and hygienist to another office and this location was going to be closed. They offered me to make my next appointment in that other office in Johnston or Scituate or to change dental offices. I decided to look for another dentist office in Providence since it is more convenient.

    I went to Dr. Barr when I moved to Providence many years ago because he was close to home and work,…read moreand just stayed because I never had a reason to leave. and everyone was friendly and competent. Over the years I came to appreciate that reliability, and Dr. Barr was always a great professional. I should have written a five-star review a long time ago, not that the office would have needed it. The practice was sold recently to someone called Katherine Burton, who I've never seen. I have seen one of the other Dentists there, who is young and eager and seems knowledgeable. I do find the bedside manner not quite filling Dr. Barr's shoes, although I suppose that's something that comes with time. Other things have changed, too: the front desk staff, who I always liked, and I've had to trundle out to the other office in North Prov a few times because they couldn't reschedule me on South Main. None of which is a deal-killer, and I guess if I walked in the door today I wouldn't think much of it, but, I don't know, it's just the way my trust in the practice has been lowered just a bit that feels uncomfortable, somehow.

    First time patient. Super fine experience. Great COVID protections in place. Friendly. Christina,…read morethe hygienist was thorough and painless. Dr. Barr was professional. Very friendly and unrushed. Could not have gone smoother. On the plus side, I still had all the teeth I came in with when I left only cleaner! Geoffrey K.

She had to match one of my two front teeth veneers, which side by side can see any variation. Very difficult. She did it perfectly. My other experience is having to go through implants, along with orthodontics, and coordinating a while plan sequence. She enthusiastically made the plan and triaged with the other Dr's. My experience with her office is that they are very engaging, know their business, and actually a very positive experience on every visit and call. I recommend Dr. Karkalas for those that expect a higher standard of results.

    If you live in Providence, I would strongly recommend against this dentist. I just moved to…read moreProvidence and randomly selected a dentist nearby to fix the cavity. After the X-rays being aken, I was told that I have quite a few. However, she firstly spent around 15 minutes trying to sell me the "teeth whitening". Then, she told me that I need to do root planning and root scaling first. After that, I will need the crown and onlay for my cavity(which will cost around 1500 for each tooth). I did the root planning and scaling there and the hygienist Kelly was nice and responsible. If not for her, I would even give 0 star for this place. I then decided to check with other dentist as I personally thought my cavity was not that severe to need crowns or onlay. The other dentist I saw examined and told me that these cavities need to be filled and crown and onlay were not that necessary. In all, this place did not put patients need first. All they want is taking advantage of the patients and make money from them. Maybe I am quite subjective in writing this review but this is my experience.

    It seems like Providence has a weirdly high concentration of dentists, so I was a little…read moreoverwhelmed when I needed to choose a new one. Page Dentistry is a great, family-owned dental practice conveniently located in Wayland Square. Page Dentistry seems to cater to people who don't have dental insurance. A lot of people in the office seemed to be having dental emergencies, and Dr. Page seemed surprised that I didn't have anything overtly wrong with my teeth. I appreciated that the hygienist asked if I wanted x-rays or not! It's nice that they are sensitive to people's finances. Dr. Page was very professional and knowledgable. He took the time to explain the importance of flossing in a way that actually made sense and was not condescending. The billing process was seamless and straightforward. Some of the staff at reception were surprisingly rude and difficult to deal with. Still, I would definitely come back to Page Dentistry for my next dental checkup!

I could not make that appointment so they said they had NOTHING ELSE and they put me on a call list. How many businesses do you know that do horrible work and then don't offer to fix it? This just proves what I already thought - that he has no backbone. I like people who stand behind their work, not blame people for their shortcomings. He's probably going to treat me like I did something to cause this filling to come off because that's who he is. And he'll probably also tell me that he didn't have an appointment because I missed one cleaning or something. This dentist is weird. He takes things personally and has zero social skills. Any good review you see on here will soon be somebody who is upset. They will cancel appointments on you and not reschedule and then make you feel horrible for not coming in and seeing them. They are very disorganized and their scheduling is archaic. There is a very bizarre culture in that office and it's not centered around the patient as it should be.
