Imagine my surprise when I learned that my dermatologist's wife was not only a general dentist, but could fit me with dentures just as she had done with her mother-in-law. The results have been great: I showed her photos of Claudia Schiffer's teeth and the results are as close as possible to the photos. Also, just as I requested, the teeth are smaller than my original ones and the color is perfect. This personal attention to detail and Dr. Jang's overall kindness and talent make this a great place to have dental work done.

She always asked if I was comfortable and informed me of all the steps that she was taking. Dr. Rad and her confirmed that I have some grinding issues as my canine teeth were becoming worn down. My previous dentists never mentioned that to me, but when they pointed it out, I also realized that my canines were getting worn out. I tremendously appreciate their thoroughness and mannerisms.

The office is located on the second floor of a building with no elevator or wheelchair access. There are two flights of stairs to reach the second floor from either the front of the building or the rear of the building where the parking is located. While somewhat challenging for me now due to knee and hip issues, I can make it up the stairs using the handrail along the way. However, there may be a time for me in the future that the lack of accessibility will prompt me to change to a different practice.

Dr Wetreich is an amazing practitioner! Far above a mere dentist yet even the impressive title of…read moreprosthodontist seems not quite enough to describe him either. He is on a whole other level. I am grateful that he is passing his high level of skill along to dental students in his capacity as Professor at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. Dr Wetreich's expertise and artistry are unmatched. He listens and takes great care to deliver upon a patient's expectations. The entire staff of his office, and the other practitioners to whom I was referred by him, are highly professional, talented, and kind people. I had quite a bit of work done, both to fix failing work done by other dentists and underlying problems that developed because of that. I am so pleased with the results of the project that, not only do I feel confident enough to smile again but I just bought red lipstick for the first time in 20 years!

Unfortunately, my experience with Dr. Wetreich was very disappointing. I returned to his care…read moreexpecting quality treatment but instead received treatment that led to ongoing dental problems and related issues which remain very difficult to resolve. I regret following his advice to remove a crowned, root-canal-treated wisdom tooth that two prior dentists had advised me to keep, as well as agreeing to a bite adjustment in January 2025. Afterward, I developed tooth sensitivity, lingering toothaches, and what I perceived as changes in my lower face and lips -- including sagging, a sunken appearance, and an aged look. From my perspective, these issues only began after the bite adjustment, and the treatment options I've been offered have been complex, costly, and not reassuring. I deeply regret these decisions and strongly urge others to seek multiple opinions before agreeing to any similar treatments. This review is based solely on my personal experience and perspective as a patient.

My boyfriend had an awful experience. He went to get a tooth pulled and the lady dentist broke the…read moretooth in his mouth, got the majority out but months later he is still picking out pieces of tooth. He left there in a ridiculous amount of pain and bleeding fiercely. We live 45 minutes away and had to pull over three times. When I called for him, the dentist just said everything went fine, and she even stitched him, per his request. He requested nothing during the procedure, could not even talk (obviously). He never ever takes pain meds, but did ask for some and she sent over I think three oxycodone that didn't touch the pain. Something definitely went wrong and rather than fix it, she said it was fine and pretty much blamed him. Since she wanted him back to fill two cavities that he didn't have (went elsewhere).

Dr. Maria Moser at this office attempted to do a tooth implant on me. I say 'attempted' because it…read morewas botched- the abutment part was too big. She even said this right out loud, in surprise, as the procedure was getting underway. She went ahead however and tried to put the thing in anyway. As she tightened it into place I almost screamed and fainted; this was far and away the most painful experience I've ever had, in a dentist's office or outside of one. The pain didn't let up and five days later I had her take the abutment and crown back out. She put me on a course of antibiotics to try to stop any infection from the obvious swelling that had begun (see the picture). I rejected her offer to try the whole procedure again, this time with a "tissue punch", and had the botched part redone by a dentist who'd been voted the 'Best Dentist in Boston'. Dr. Moser never apologized or expressed any remorse and of course never refunded the thousands she charged me and my insurance. I'm currently pursuing legal action against her and filing complaints with the local and state licensing boards.

There are so many dental practices in the area; I recommend seeking one that actually has staff.
