I rarely review medical practitioners but Dr Schweier truly deserves a five star for his warm…read moreprofessional bedside manner, meticulous examination and very effective but gentle treatment of oral cavity as well as other dental issues. I can tell he has a 'patient first' mentality and is very honest in his assessment. He won't advise you treatments (especially costly ones) unless he feels you truly need it. I've had my fair share of dentists in three different states (NYC, GA, NC) but Dr. Schweier by far is the best. I can say this because (1) right before Labor Day, I woke up with severe tooth ache. I had no idea why. The clinic was able to see me that same day and Dr Schweier was able to quickly pinpoint the root cause after a thorough examination -- it turned out my tooth nerve had died and I needed a root canal. He had a strong sense of urgency and really wanted to make sure this gets addressed ASAP as more severe things can happen if the root canal treatment gets postponed. Keep in mind root canal is not a short process and I was nervous about going back home with a tooth ache and things getting worse. Even though he had a tight schedule, he was gracious enough to move things around and treated me right away! If he hadn't done that, my Labor Day weekend would've been miserable with the severe front tooth ache and I would be worried about infection. I really appreciate his sense of urgency and care for me! (2) I dread any form of cavity drilling and mentioned this to Dr. Schweier. In my experience, anesthesia never eliminated the pain and that nerve pinching discomfort from drilling. But today during my visit, Dr. Schweier and his assistant Joice were super gentle and made the drilling and cavity filling absolutely painless!!! To my surprise, this is a first for me! He joked he'll increase the anesthesia dosage but I'm sure his skilled techniques played a big role. He and Joice really make a great team and he treats his staff with respect which is great. (3)receptionists and assistants are very professional and nice. I also got my teeth cleaned here by the hygienist - she's very thorough and takes her time. I definitely recommend Dr. Schweier for anyone!

I have to give a HUGE THANK YOU to Dr. Jeffrey Pan for doing such an great job on my dental work…read more He did an AMAZING job on both root canals. He has the PATIENCE of Mother Teresa dealing with me and my anxiety. Honestly I am not afraid of the Dentist, I'm afraid of having a panic attack and feeling trapped. I expressed my concerns to him and he listened. He takes the time to ask me are you ok? and he made me feel safe and that makes my fear go away and keeps my anxiety at bay. If anyone is putting off a dental issue (like I did) don't do it. Call them and book an appointment, I waited 3 years and got a serious infection that made my face swell and I was foolish.

Dr. Patel came highly recommended by other dental professionals. He takes time to make sure you fully understand your treatment. Encourages questions and seems to genuinely enjoy helping people.

They communicate with each other in great synchronicity that makes you even more confident in their expertise. My results have been amazing and I am so grateful to have had this recommendation. You won't be disappointed.

Gentle Dental has made this easier for me and my son. The first appointment was a free consult. The process of how braces work was fully explained to us. They reviewed the payment options and lastly they talked to my son on how to take care of his new braces. The office staff has always welcomed us with professionalism. They accommodate us when scheduling the required monthly appointments. They are very patient with not just us but with every client I have seen in the office. The office is clean and the atmosphere is calm. The office staff does not seen to be rattled by the sometimes large number of clients that seem to appear out of nowhere. The staff give each client individual attention and assure them that they will be taken care. The dentist are also concerned with the needs of the patients. They do not rush the patients. They treat each patient individually. I recalled when the dentist approached me talk my son's specific needs and gave me clear instructions. If the dentist saw something that was concerning, he did not hesitate to communicate it to me. Getting braces is never an easy process but I am glad that I have a professional staff that can help, guide and serve the needs of my son.

She also seemed flustered, like she had forgotten our exchange the previous day. I will say the front desk staff seemed very friendly and attentive and could tell we were getting antsy but I guess it was out of their control.

Came in as a second opinion for my 10 year old son. He started his braces (one appointment only)…read morebut I became very unhappy once I realized my son's orthodontist once again changed his treatment plan. But now to something that included a root canal on his front tooth. Absolutely not! I want to say - I know medical/dental there are alot of variation in treating patients but my son's case I admit can be more complex compared to the next child but....... I felt that Dr. Salem's treatment plan was much more sound and was supported with clear patient education that made complete sense to me. The previous Ortho I started my son with changed his proposed treatment plan 3times in one month. First proposed at initial consultation, second time at the second appt when placing the molar spacers, and a third time at the banding. All this in a matter of one month time. Teeth do not change that fast. Anyway... Dr. Karim put all the cards out on the table and was aware of all the obstacles and possibilities my son may face as treatment progresses. Not only did he know what he was talking about (I came here based on a highly reliable referral) he also had great chairside manner! Once the consult appt was over I sat with Julliana and she explained about what to do from this point to transfer my case. I like her. She's down to earth and very efficient. I'm looking forward to coming here more often!

Dr. Gheewalla fixed my son's permanent bottom retainer, after my son had bent it, flossing, such that it was now irritating his tongue. As well, Dr. Gheewalla came through, again, when my son needed a consult with a periodontist. Dr. G. not only supplied us with names of excellent area periodontists but also conferred with both of them to pave the path of our son's obtaining an immediate appt., sooner than later. Turned out to be a very minor issue (kale stuck under my son's gum) but still needed a professional to extricate it without damaging the gum. Fact: excellent practitioners refer to other excellent practitioners. I know other students in my son's college community who have been seen by Dr. Gheewalla, and both parent and student report being extremely pleased with both Dr. G's expertise and clinical manner. Dr. G is a product of Tufts Dental school, another reason he is a superlative orthodontist. Highly, highly recommend.
