The office is very clean and they make every effort to ensure that the dental experience is comfortable and as peaceful as possible. I absolutely LOVE my dental hygienist too! I will never leave this practice. They are so very thorough with the 6-month examinations (I don't have any cavities, so that's all I get). They also ensure your teeth are super strong by taking x-rays and reviewing them with you to show you any change each year. I've also had the pleasure of seeing Dr. George for a night guard - darn stressful job has me grinding my teeth - and he is very nice and professional too! Didn't I say I will never leave this practice? Good :)

Can't believe I'm reviewing dentists here but honestly Drs. Bernstein, Perkins, and George are the…read moretrifecta of dental awesomeness. I lived in DC and had terrible experiences with three different DC dentists, including one offering to give me botox during my cleaning. Um what? This resulted in me avoiding dentists at all costs. My parents see Dr. Perkins and thanks to my love for all things sugar and soda I eventually ended up in the chairs of both Dr. B and Dr. G over the last (ehhh) six years or so. Most recently...my visit wasn't by choice. A filling or something or another fell out as I was happily crunching on tortilla chips when bam I needed my first root canal. Dr. George worked me in and dealt with the situation way better than I could have imagined. I went to the root canal specialist then back to him and oddly it wasn't the terrible experience I was anticipating. Kind of weird but also kind of refreshing. I just went back for my cleaning and have an appointment for fillings. Not something to brag about but they're the first dental office that's made me feel comfortable about actually coming back!

In the quest for a new dental office I decided to check this one out despite it being just a little…read morefurther than I desire. The woman who works the front desk was very kind and warm. The morning I went there were a number of more senior citizens there for dental care and it appears they really take care of their more senior clients. Once back in the room I waited quite a bit for the dentist to come. Before that the dental hygienist took X-rays which was quite the task to put it gently. The X-ray experience was probably the initial deterrent. Also, I thought I booked an initial cleaning which I thought was typical for a first appointment, but apparently I did not. The first appointment consisted entirely of X-rays and then a review and evaluation of the X-rays. I don't know if I'm a personal fan of the bedside manner for the dentist, but that's a subjective standard rather than objective. I'm sure this is the right office for someone, just not me.

About a year ago Dr. Thompson hired a new hygienist Victoria & she doesn't hold a candle to what…read morethey once had. This hygienist is not thorough with teeth cleaning, my teeth still felt unclean after seeing her. Also her communication skills make procedures cumbersome, for example she is not good at conducting X-rays, she is silent and expects you to know she's about to toss the heavy X-ray blanket on you, and how to move your head or hold your mouth when inserting the X-ray into your mouth, then she blames her bad X-rays on the patient. Unfortunately Victoria is the only hygienist at Silver Spring Dental Arts, they do not have any other options.

Dr. Brian Park has been a lifesaver! I had a botched root canal several years ago which triggered a…read moredeep fear of dentists. Unfortunately this also resulted in neglect of routine dental care which only got worse. I recently had a root canal done at another office who referred me to Dr. Park for follow up and I'm so grateful that they did. Aside from the root canal follow up, I knew I had two teeth in the back that I was convinced would need to be extracted because they had such large, deep cavities. Dr Park not only prevented them from being extracted, but was able to fill them in office and save them entirely. He is so kind and gentile, walks me through everything he's doing, and answers the firehose of questions I throw his way effortlessly. His reception staff are also outstanding and have been able to get me in for follow up appointments quickly. While I don't think I'll ever "enjoy" going to the dentist, I couldn't ask for a better experience than with Dr. Park. Can't recommend him enough!
