I returned to Ridgetop Dental for my routine cleaning. Upon entering, I encountered a new male front desk staff member/receptionist who was stationed behind a wall. He immediately turned around, looked directly at me, and then resumed checking out another patient without acknowledging my presence--neither with a "good morning" nor a simple "I'll be right with you." Standing beside the patient was a new Dental Hygienist, who I later learned would be performing my cleaning. She had the presence of mind to acknowledge me, saying, "Sir, he'll be right with you once he finishes checking out this patient." I appreciated being acknowledged and felt seen. After I continued waiting patiently at the front desk, the receptionist completed the transaction with the other patient and turned to ask for my name. Once I confirmed it, he simply said, "You can go sit down." I asked, "I'm checked in?" seeking clarification. Not long after I checked in, a female patient entered, and he greeted her warmly, asked for her name, and told her politely, "Thanks! I have you all checked in." I was later escorted to the back by the new Dental Hygienist, who was extremely friendly and professional. She even took the initiative to confirm that I had taken the antibiotics typically required before my procedures--an indication of genuine concern. This made me feel that she truly had my best interests at heart and was providing excellent customer service. She further demonstrated professionalism by deferring to the doctor, who also came in to speak with me about the matter. One of the factors that influences whether I return to an establishment is the level of customer service--either based on reviews I've read or my own past experiences. Unfortunately, this particular visit felt mediocre overall. The customer service at the front desk/reception area could be improved by ensuring all patients are acknowledged and treated with the same level of courtesy and professionalism. That said, I commend the Dental Hygienist and the treating doctor for their attentiveness, professionalism, and respectful treatment. Should I choose to return, I hope that the front desk staff will consistently demonstrate a courteous and welcoming demeanor toward all patients--not just a select few. read more

Let me start by saying WOW! I am so glad I found this Dental office. I have been looking for one for a while now. From the first moment I stepped into the office, EVERYONE, not only smiled but genuinely looked happy to see me. I have been in customer service and sales for many years and that first impression is everything. I hate entering an establishment and people look and act like you're just another number or that you're a bother. You won't feel that way here. Next, I was escorted to a beautiful meeting room. That was unexpected. I was wondering, hmmm, why. Then I was greeted by Alexis (who was awesome) she simply asked me to tell her about myself so she could get to know me better. Whaaat?!! How awesome is that? I felt like a VIP at a dental office...Nice!! Then Dr. Datta arrived after her and literally asked to get to know me as well and wanted to know what my ultimate goal and expectations were with my smile and dental care. I mean, omg! I have never had an experience like this in my lifetime. Dr. Datta Immediately made me feel comfortable. Thank you Dr. Datta. Lastly, Sarah was responsible for my cleaning and explained everything she was doing, step by step. She even introduced me to some of their state-of-the-art imaging equipment. Sarah was amazing and friendly and kind. Without a doubt, I am certain that I have found my dental care home. I will be going over a plan for treatment and follow up soon and I will give you an update on that experience, however, I know they will do a great job. This office goes above and beyond. Koodos to you all!! You're amazing. read more

Ridgetop Dental - Sterling - The meet and greet :) - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Sterling, Virginia

I've been coming to ridgetop for a few years and been seeing Sara, she has been amazing. I think care quality is great at this place. I went through braces and treatment for sleep apnea and care was great. read more

I've been coming here for cleanings for years, ever since they helped me with a crown that fell off right before I was supposed to leave on vacation - they saved my trip. Today was the first time I had to have a cavity filled and I wasn't looking forward to the procedure. It was no problem - only a little prick when the novacain was administered - otherwise it was quick and painless. Kudos to Dr Sangeeta Kumar! She is not only very proficient, but also very knowledgable and pleasant. read more

Alexis was great! She did an amazing job with cleaning my teeth. She's so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her!

Worth traveling across the state! I was a patient of Ridgetop and Dr Datta for many years, some of them, as I moved out of state, involved a 2 hour flight. Reason is simple: Dr Datta is the best dentist out there! It's a combination of knowledge and practice and desire to serve and educate. Dr Datta is a wonderful human who attracts great people to do the right thing, the right way. I owe my good dental health and good hygiene habits to this place. When I moved, Dr Datta helped me evaluate a new dentist. I probably would have continued to fly:) read more

The best dentist in sterling Great service, professional staff I love doctor Diana And her assistant Sandra Every time I go they make me feel like a home read more

I liked how Dr. Datta great and explained to me everything I needed to know regarding my implant questions. He, I believe have over 20 years experience and very knowledgeable. They offer me a free implant consultation which cost you between 85-175 dollars anywhere else, believe me I have called so money other dentists around and they charge a lot. I highly recommend ridgetopdental for you next dentist need. It was very easy professional and pleasant experience. I will definitely update my review here if I decided to move on and get my treatment plan done. read more

Great location, coffee shop on the first floor. Clean modern office. Short waiting time. Hygienist was very thorough, described in detail what she was doing. I took 2 stars away because of 2 reasons - (1) I had to prepay the whole amount of my share after insurance before I could book my fillings. And I did check my credit card the payment was posted on the day of booking and not on the day of service. I have been to many dentists in the area and this is the first time I have encountered such policy. (2) The most painful numbing injection I have ever experienced! I think it was because the numbing gel was placed too early while the doctor was still busy with another patient. this is actually the main reason I wouldn't go back again. However, I would also like to mention the dentist did a great job with the filling. She was very precise that it did not need many attempts to adjust the height of the filling. read more

This place is AMAZING. Everyone I have dealt with in this office has been so friendly and overall wonderful. From the man I originally spoke to over the phone to schedule my appointment, to my hygienist and Dr. Diana, and even Melissa (I believe that is her name - I'm horrible with remembering names) in billing. I have been terrified of going to the dentist for years due to horrible experiences in the past and everyone here puts my mind at ease. My hygienist and Dr. Diana explain everything thoroughly and are very understanding and accommodating. I am so happy that I found this office and can back on track with keeping up with my oral health and preventing any worsening damage. read more

It's unfortunate that you don't have any flexibility with openings on Saturdays. Due to COVID & the limited office hours, additional days should be offered. I have called multiple times to get a cleaning on a Saturday & staff members don't seem to care nor accommodating to patients- especially with their work schedules. I shouldn't have to constantly run after you to fit me in for a simple cleaning. Your high reviews does not make up for your limited availability to get a patient in. I would suggest a game plan to make patients happy to come into your establishment. I had high hopes in becoming a lifetime patient but with negative results, I will not be nor will I suggest others too. This is very disappointing & frustrating. read more

Everyone from Ridgewood dental is wonderful! The front desk ladies are so polite, helpful, and professional. All of the dental assistants make you feel comfortable and properly taken care of. Dr. Dadda is amazing! I came to him a year ago with severe tinnitus in my left ear. He immediately started taken care of me with multiple oral appliances and he taught me jaw exercises. I am now 100% free of the ringing in my ear and my jaw feels better than ever. The tinnitus was caused by months of stress and jaw clinching. My entire family now goes to Ridgetop Dental. They are miracle workers! Ed read more

Dr Ivan is an excellent dentist who is very knowledgable in his field. He's also easygoing and friendly. What stands out to me is his honesty, something that isn't always easy to come across. He's a rare find! read more

Great dental office! Doctor Verma Saxena is my dentist. She is a kind soul, very gentle and cares deeply for her patients. I had to get a root canal done and I put it off for nearly a year. I was scared of the pain and discomfort and it took me nearly a year to finally find the courage and get the procedure done. Not only did Dr. Verma Saxena explained EVERYTHING during the procedure but she also stopped to make sure I was comfortable and not in pain. Words cannot express how grateful I am of her and her patience. Although I have not had any interactions with the other dentists, I would highly recommend this practice, and Dr. Verma Sacramento. I told my entire family to go see her! read more

Had a wonderful experience at Ridgetop. Since childhood I have had bad experiences with dentists. However at Ridgetop, they listened and helped make a plan to correct and stabilize my teeth. Also normal cleaning and check ups are easy. My hygienist, Mozhgan, was great and explained what she was doing at every step. Takes the stress out of what for me had long been a highly stressful situation. read more

Usually it takes heavy-set hired goons to drag me to the dentist, but Dr. Diana and the entire staff was very good. She understood my phobia sans lectures, did extensive briefing on the procedures, provided tranquilizers, professionally talked me through the procedures without condescension as they were ongoing... all great. Highly recommended. read more

I recently moved to the Reston area and decided to try Ridgetop Dental. I was very pleasantly surprised with the service even starting with calling for the appointment. The gentleman Jacob is so patient, kind, and welcoming as we started the initial appointment process. I'm very pleased with the attentiveness that was provided to ensure all the paperwork and insurance information was completed beforehand. When arriving I really appreciated the initial sit down with the dentist to discuss any concerns. That was new for me and I've never experienced that kind of interaction with the dentist before. All the staff there and Dr. Hart were amazing. Thank you for the great first impression and dental care. Looking forward to the following visits. read more

I made an appointment for wisdom tooth pain and was seen same day as a new patient! Dr. Datta Malyavantham walked through my options to get the tooth removed, made a few calls for a referral and ensured I was able to get it done that day. Keep in mind this was the day after Christmas so staff and availability were limited. The compassion, care, and efficiency with which the staff displayed, was unlike anything I've experience before. I cannot say enough great things during my first visit. I fully intend to change dental offices to Ridgetop after yesterday's experience. Love you guys and thank you again for all the sincerity and compassion! read more

I hate going to the dentist, but this place is not bad at all! I pay extra to come here as my insurance doesn't cover everything, and I drive quite a ways. It's well worth it to have awesome hygienists and dentists. Highly recommend. read more

The receptionists are very personable. The hygienists have all been great! They are super-gentle with my sensitive teeth, which I really appreciate. And they made me feel at ease, even covering me with a blanket when it was a little chilly in the office. Dr. Dianna removed my wisdom tooth, a procedure I had been putting off for a decade or more. It was not a straight-forward pull (unfortunately, for all involved), but 2 and a half hours later, most of the tooth and all of the nerves were removed. It healed pretty quickly and was not nearly as painful as I was expecting (didn't even fill the prescription I was given). I will definitely be returning. read more

Management is completely disorganized. I called and left several messages with the receptionist. I waited a FULL MONTH for a response. I finally got a response after emailing the manager and begging her to get back to me with the excuse being "I do apologize for the delay in my response as it has been a hectic few weeks." Is this any way to run a business? Don't bother with this place, there are many other dental offices in the area that won't waste your time. read more

First, I am reviewing based on my initial pre visit and conversations with the staff. I worked with Molly and she is AMAZING AND A ROCKSTAR. She listened and laughed with me and worked hard and effortlessly to get my husband's appointment down. She followed up and is just an all around GREAT PERSON. I can't wait to meet her tomorrow as well as the doctor. read more

* This review is a copy and paste from a review I left on another site, it is not spam, these are legitimately my opinions about this dentist * Just thinking about going to the dentist raises my heart rate and makes me nervous. I was recommended to Ridgetop Dental earlier this year, and it took me 10 months to make the call to schedule an appointment. When I finally went into the office after pacing around the building a couple times I was greeted by the very friendly front desk staff. A couple minutes later Dr. Diana took me into the office and sat and talked with me for a couple minutes about the practice. Then I went to the back for my initial appointment, I'm not sure if they will let you pick the Dental Hygienist who works with you, but if they do I highly recommend Susie, she is kind, gentle, and funny. After a couple laughs my appointment was over and I scheduled my next appointments for some big follow-up work. Dr. Diana took round one, and did an excellent job of putting me at ease for a 3 hour appointment. I was very surprised at how gentle the procedure was, and she took great care to explain everything to me as she was working on my teeth. A week later I went back for round two and saw Dr. Datta. He was also very gentle and I hardly felt it when he put in the Novocain, this is coming from someone who is terrified of needles. Susie wrapped up the procedure and was absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend Ridgetop Dental to anyone looking for a dentist, especially if you have high anxiety, they know how to make going to the dentist a good experience. read more

Datta is a dishonest dentist who tries to sell you unnecessary procedures. My suggestion is to get a second opinion. His office finds out how much insurance coverage you have remaining for the year and suggests unnecessary procedures to use all your remaining coverage. Avoid at all costs! He has positive feedback on some fraudulent websites where you can't even leave him a review! read more

Very friendly and thorough. I suggest there practice to my friends and family nude I have had a great experience with them

offered me a complimentary consultation but billed my insurance without my knowledge or consent. Please be aware.

This is an excellent dental practice. Dr. Datta and his staff are always courteous and professional. Dr. Datta is really good at what he does and he can pretty much do everything. Now my whole family goes to him for our dental needs! read more

Dr. Datta was absolutely phenomenal. I had to get a crown on a very troublesome tooth - it's short and therefore difficult to get a crown to stick to. Dr. Datta and staff, especially Kara, was very friendly. The procedure was fast and the crown has stayed on for 6 months already. He recommended I go with ceramic and the color is a great match. Thank you Dr. Datta for helping a very difficult patient. 5 stars! read more

I am always impressed with the service & quality of care when I go into Ridgetop dental. Dr Data did an amazing job with my Invisalign treatment a few years back & Dr. Diane & Dr. Shaw are super friendly & do a great job in what they do. The hygienists always do a wonderful job in cleaning/polishing & making it a great experience for me & my family. Mozhgan ( one of the hygienists) is great at being extra detailed in her work. She makes sure to double check her work after scaling my teeth to make sure she didn't miss a thing! I highly recommend this practice to everyone I know. I pass about 15 dentists on my way to Ridgetop but I love the family atmosphere they have. It's worth the extra miles to get top notch service! read more

Very friendly staff and dentist, and very nice office. The only reason not to give 5 stars is that the concierge approach, while very nice, does take a bit longer than expected if you're there for a routine cleaning like I was. read more

Best dental clinic I've ever been to. Beautiful inside. The dentists and dental assistance are so professional and very welcoming! Would recommend! read more

Ridgetop Dental is an excellent practice with the friendliest staff and excellent doctors. I just had my 3rd (and final!) gum graft. I was so nervous - there are so many horror stories on the internet. Dr. Datta explained everything, the procedures were relatively fast and painless (once you get past those Novocain shots!) and healing has been easy. Dr Datta called me at home in the evening on his own time to see how I was doing. I am the biggest wimp when it comes to dental procedures and dr Datta and the whole staff made me very comfortable. read more

Ridgetop Dental is really great I come here for years and service is great! staff is really friendly and they do excellent job cleaning ! I highly recommend this Dental office! read more

While Dr.Datta was good, i am really upset with the information they provide. Their front office staff do not provide you any information regarding the insurance coverage. Also if you need to followup they charge you upfront for Doctors time that you have blocked in advance, making it very difficult to change if you want to see someone else. Check with everything before you make an appointment else you will ve ripped off. Their charges are atrocious. read more

Do not go to him. He delivered two crowns which has problems and didn't fix the problems. When I asked him to take out the crown and refund my money so I can have some one else do it, he yelled at me over the phone and said" do what every you can" and hung up the phone. I will speak with my lawyer and take him to court. He shouldn't treat patients like he treated me. I don't recommend him to anyone.Your review helps others learn about great local businesses. Please don't review this business if you received a freebie for writing this review, or if you're connected in any way to the owner or employees. read more

After years of not going to the dentist because I hated the experience, I bit the bullet and tried Ridgetop Dental and can't express how grateful I am to have found them. The experience has been outstanding. The entire team provides an outstanding client experience. My hygienist, Mozhgan is the best! While my treatments have been with "Dr. Datta" the other dentists in the office are also pleasant and I would have no issues seeing any of them. Do yourself a favor if you, like me, have avoided going to the dentist give them a shot. You won't regret it. read more

I'm sure dr. datta is good with people who don't have grinding problems or any sort of teeth issues. The billing was terrible, they make you put down more than owe and unless you ask for your money they wont give it and if you do they promise to put it toward another bill. I have very good dental insurance and they definitely took advantage of that. He persuaded me to do at least one inlay but i refused to get the second one done simply because the first one fell out and even though he replaced it for free i still feel like two years later it's going to fall out again. he also told me my roots weren't fit for braces well here i am with braces lol from one of the top orthos in the area. I'm annoyed that i felt comfortable and he knew it too! when the inlay fell out he said "you must have been angry and mad at me" i was! but i was too nice to say i was. that was the last time i saw him. He did 3 of the 4 quadrants and $3K out of pocket (remember i said i had good insurance?? well the best way to scam someone for more money, pick the most expensive fillings). I recently read that onlays/inlays are not good for people who grind their teeth.. i thank my lucky stars I didn't get the last quadrant done. Also, i got the inlay to replace my already cavity fillings. So like i said, a or 2 years later, i still feel like the inlay is coming out, and my bottom two molars weren't smoothed correctly or something because i could pick off the layers of whatever was put on my teeth for my other regular resin fillings. read more

Dr. Datta and his team are excellent! He is one of the kindest and most gentle dentist that I have worked with. Debbie, the hygienist, is very friendly. The front office staff is wonderful and I never have trouble getting appointments on short notice. read more

Awesome, friendly staff and always great work. Been a patient for more than 15 years.

Mozhgan my hygienist was very gentle with my cleaning. I often have high anxiety at the dentist office, but Mozhgan always explains what she is doing in order to put me at ease. She is very friendly and professional. The dentist is also very friendly and puts me right at ease. I highly recommend this dentist office. read more
