Have gone to Dr Kost for many years and always satisfied with the results. Can't beat how well they care for each patient. Very understanding and never pushy like some dentists I saw in the past. read more

I do not recommend this practice. Note: my review on Google was removed, so I reposted an updated version there today. This is my first review here on Yelp. 1) The dentist damaged the abutment on my dental implant during a procedure -- replacing the implant will now cost me over $7,000. 2) Overcharging -- prices without insurance are higher. 3) Received a temporary crown that was supposed to last about a year, but it broke after one week. When I raised this, I was told to consult a third-party dental technician instead of the practice taking responsibility. Unprofessional service and poor billing practices. Not recommended. read more

My mother was a dental hygienist and taught me the importance of good dental hygiene as well as how to identify competent professionals. Dr. Kost's ability, personality and dedication to patient wellness is indisputable. I'm so happy I found her practice and a place for my precious all-natural teeth to call, 'home." read more

Dr Inna kost is personable. Her practice is clean and all of her staffs are very polite and welcoming... I have gone to 2 other dental practices and I wasn't very satisfied and now that i have found this practice i am happy with my visit. Dr INNA sees her first time patients and will recommend cleanings and other services accordingly. I have finally found the one and i will be her patient forever, lastly her prices are very reasonable. read more

Inna Kost, DMD - Gave this at the end of my cleaning. - General Dentistry Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

I left a review on google that was deleted so here I am. Do not go to this dentist. She recommended a backfill of my sensitive teeth in the back. How would a filling on the side of a tooth stay on? It won't. She barely cleaned my teeth and told me to come back in four months for a deep cleaning that I could pay for out of pocket. She then said I needed braces that would only cost $7k. I've already had braces. She's a classist and doesn't want to see anyone in her Bethesda office unless they're on her level. read more

Excellent professional dental service.How can racist,rude and narrow minded people be so cruel.That was my experience.I was treated look a dumb Latino which I am not .That is so rude and racist.They would look down at me in a very subtle way and they assumed I did not speak English which is a lie.If you are a foreigner don't go there have dignity you are a person you deserve respect.To assume something that is a lie about you and make it true is barbaric and that is the way I was treated. Also the recepcionist are Latinos that mistreat the other Latinos and this itself is so distasteful and disgusting. Thank You For Listening To Me!!!! read more

I have been a patient of Dr Inna kost for the past 4 years. I have never had a dentist as caring and detailed and gentle as her. She did a crown for me as well as a recent implant. Both went well and smooth. Her staff are equally caring and very competent. She has a great hygienist with the gentlest touch but thorough and a good educator. I recommend them highly. read more

Over the past 12 years of living in the DC area I have tried at least 5 different dentist , and I can emphatically say, Dr Kost is the best dentist in the area. From the qualtiy of her staff, to the best technology to diagnosis and also explain the situation in your mouth, she provides a level of credibility and likability unlike any other dentist. Her chair side manor along with the simple yet pleasant caring touch of moisturizing your lips so that dont dry during the visit, makes what many see as a utalitarian task, a delightful experience. read more

I took my 5 years old to this doctor. She did the filling, but it got infected. We came back, the kid had lots of pain and a swollen cheek. Inna Kost told that we need to wait, and saw no emergency. When I asked to show me X-ray it turned out the X-ray is not readable, because they have only adult X-ray and the boy is too small for that. They don't have X-ray for kids. She told me he will be fine, saying that there is_no_infection, she still prescribed a small doze of amoxicillin. When we went to the other doctor, in the X-ray he showed us the tooth under the filling was sick and roots infected and infection was spreading to the neighboring tooth. Eventually one tooth was extracted. Just don't take your kids to this doctor. read more

I've been a patient of Dr Kost for many years, first at her practice in Potomac, and now at her practice on Old Georgetown Road. All my life, I've had extensive dental needs. Caps, crowns, fillings, root canals - I've had them all. And I've been to more dentists than I can count. Of all of those, Dr Kost is by FAR the best. Her dental skills are impeccable, her chair-side manner is perfect, her follow-up care is exemplary, her referrals to outside specialists, when necessary, are top-notch. I can't say I enjoy going to the dentist, but I can say that, if you need to go, go to Dr Kost. read more

I am very impressed with Dr. Kost. Only one visit so far, but she took the time to carefully review my entire mouth (and notice things my previous dentist never did), ask questions, tell me where I am doing well and where I could improve, and gave me helpful recommendations. She's also very pleasant. It's a clean, bright office, with friendly staff, as well. I am glad I found her (thanks in no small part to reviews on Yelp). read more

Dr. Kost is the best dentist I've ever been to! Walking in, the front desk was very kind and made sign-in quick and easy. Dr. Kost was extremely sweet and pleasant to speak with, and really cared about my tooth health and comfort. She has a great team composed of equally caring people who walked me through each step of the cleaning process, answered all my questions, and made the cleaning completely painless. Her office was warm, clean, and bright. The team went above and beyond to disinfect and sterilize the whole office, making me feel extremely safe. I will continue to visit Dr. Kost because I know I am getting care from the best. read more

Took our 3 year old for treatment (baby tooth), doctor saw no cavity and charged $$$ for oral evaluation. 6 months later received another invoice for $50 (no-show fee). They put another appointment on the calendar to see our kid in 6 months but forgot to notify us and charged no-show fee instead! read more

Dr. Inna Kost bought out an existing practice. it used to be Dodek and Dodek, a brother & sister team. Since then, Dr. Kost has over charged me, double charged me, and then wanted to charge me for changing a dental appointment within 48 hours... 48 hourS! Not the standard 24 hours. I have two insurance policies, BCBS and Met Life, that fully covers dental 2 checkups and cleanings / year. They billed me for a copay when the insurance company clearly says there is not. As a dentist, I think she's okay. But her billing practices are totally shady! read more

Tried Dr. Kost based on a neighbor's recommendation, so happy I did. She is very thorough and knows her stuff. So happy I found her! Bonus parking is free! The office staff are super friendly as well!! read more

I am a new patient of Dr. Kost...a very happy new patient at that. My previous dentist told me that I would need a few crowns on teeth in the back of my mouth. At the time (5 months ago) I had no time to get the crowns done. Seeing Dr. Kost recently, I told her what my previous dentist said. After getting an x-ray at her office, I was shocked to learn that I had no damage in any of my teeth-- let alone those in the back of my mouth. Dr. Kost carefully examined the x-ray herself and thoroughly examined my teeth as well. I was completely shocked to hear that my previous dentist wanted to perform an unnecessary procedure!! Thankfully she saved me a lot of trouble, pain, discomfort, and money. I only ended up having a routine cleaning and x-rays. In my opinion the waiting room was overcrowded, but overall I was very pleased with the service (no issues with billing of insurance). read more

I have a bridge over three teeth that needs to be replaced so I decided I would go to two dentists, that take Careington(my new discount dental club), to compare prices and general feel of the office..Have never used this before so I called to see if I could get a consultation about how much it would cost ..I was told yes on the phone..no problem...no fee.. After about a half hour i was taken to another room and again waiting ..but this time in dental chair..Then someone from the office comes in and starts to show me the costs for the consultation that i was told was free.. I did not even look at prices since I felt this was totally disingenuous..If i had been told of the price policy before I arrived and waited I would not have been angry.. Guess I will be using first dentist who did not charge me anything for the consult..Too bad since this dentist probably lost about $3,000.00 .. Be careful if you intend to use her .. read more

Good dentist; but very shady billing practices. They billed us several times for 90% of the insurance cost, then expect us to wait until they are reimbursed and then they cut us a check? Since we are paying with FSA I think this is illegal and really a pain for us. I like the dentist and the staff, but the billing person is terrible and the reason we are leaving. read more

Inna Kost is a wonderful dentist, very gentle, caring, and honest. I had some major work done, including surgery and she was wonderful. I am so happy I found her and she is just a class act. Her staff is also caring, kind and considerate. I have had no billing issues, they have been upfront about the costs and if needed a payment plan without interest is available with a credit or debit card for monthly payments. Most most dentists do not offer this type of payment option so I know I can pay her over time, if my insurance runs out. I am so grateful and thankful to finding such a great dentist. She also is very concerned with my health and gave me the prescriptions I needed to heal the infection I had. I am really so happy with her and her practice and I can't say enough about her. Most of all, she and her staff are honest as the team of dentists, surgeons that she works with for more extensive surgery. read more

I've always had a good experience with Dr.Kost. And she has always been able to get me in to see her when needed. (My only complaint is the radio playing overhead and having to listen to obnoxious commercials, but in the big scheme of things not a big deal!) read more

Best dentist I've ever had. Cleans your teeth personally instead of a hygienist. Spends time answering your questions and explaining procedures. Clean and friendly office. read more
