    This is my dentist. I called about a year after I moved here, and it had been an embarrassingly…read morelong time since I'd been to the dentist. I brush and floss religiously, but as a poor grad student, I had neglected the regular cleaning part. Gross, huh? Once I made an appointment, though, I felt SO much better. Sonia sat me down for an initial free consultation, asking me about my oral hygiene habits (yes, I brush and floss; no, I don't smoke) and my appointment preferences (they offer sedation dentistry if needed, which I don't, but it's a good option to have!). She was so nice, and once I set up my initial appointment, my favorable impression of Modern Dental only got better. Modern Dental matches its patients to a hygenist, whom a patient sees each appointment. My hygenist is Kathy, and she is great! She is gentle, but she also doesn't BS, telling me when I'm not brushing long enough. Dr. Houghton is the dentist, and he is also very professional and does a great job. My favorite part of a dentist visit is the goody bag they give patients at the end. Goody bags at the dentist? Oh yes! Each time I go, they give me a tube of toothpaste--seriously the best toothpaste ever, made from all-natural ingredients and a wonderful cleaner. So it tastes like ass--who cares? It really works much better than anything available at the drugstore. They also provide plenty of floss, tongue scrapers, and other fun stuff. The office has also given me, gratis, trial-size toothpaste tubes for my travels. The prices are pretty reasonable--I would gladly pay twice as much for the oral care I receive at Modern Dental. I now don't hesitate to go to the dentist every 6 months.

    Modern Dental provides a very comfortable experience...had some serious work done with great…read moreresults and, the best part, no discomfort! Also, they have early hours which make it very convenient in scheduling an appointment!

    I don't recommend getting oral surgery here. I liked Dr Lyford and trusted him. I had a root…read morecanal go wrong at another practice, which resulted in eventually needing the tooth extracted and having an implant put in. Instead of getting an upper dental implant done at MGH (where I really should have gone) I got it done with his office. Ahead of the surgery, I spend months jumping through hoops and seeing a sinus specialist (that Lyford referred me to) at Mass Eye and Ear to have Dr Lyford "approve" me for tooth removal and subsequent implant. There was concern that the root canal had damaged my sinus, and I was told it hadn't done permanent damage but I'd be better off having the tooth removed immediately as the existing tooth and root canal were irritating the sinus. Dr Lyford finally cleared me for dental surgery in his Hollis office with another Dr that comes in to help him. Things seemed fine immediately following the surgery, but months later I had recurring pain in my mouth and sinus then my eye on that side of my face kept swelling shut. I was missing work events and in a lot of pain. I had to go back to Mass Eye and Ear ER several times as the doctors around here were worried about nerve damage and potentially losing sight in the affected eye. During this process and several rounds of imaging later, it was discovered that the new implant had punctured my sinus and was causing serious problems. I had a very rough summer dealing with it. I eventually had to have sinus surgery to mitigate the problem. The sinus specialist that Dr Lyford referred me to himself said that my needing surgery was due to the dental implant. I'm hopeful that I can keep the implant but it may eventually need to be removed if it continues to be an agent of infection. I saw Dr Lyford today to follow up and discuss the implant and he claimed that the sinus specialist had no idea what she was talking about (the woman HE referred me to at Mass Eye and Ear in Boston) and that the implant wasn't the problem. That I would have a swollen eye, nosebleeds and pain (which I reiterated I did). He was very dismissive and wanted to adjust the implant which I said no to. Clearly, I need to find a new dentist. I just don't recommend this practice and wish I had done things differently on my end. Also, the services are really expensive. I've spent thousands of dollars there. He is out of network for dental insurance and you pay out of pocket to be reimbursed (in theory - it's a partial reimbursement at best).

    Dr. Art was my Dentist for 25 years and he was fantastic. He had a 10 year plan for my teeth and it…read morewent smoothly. I was able to systematicly address a tooth every couple of years to have crowns replace cracked 1970's vintage silver fillings. Once I had an issue with a crown and he was able to open his office and fit me in on a Weekend! You just don't often get that type of care and service today. I wish him well in retirement, he will be missed.
