My tooth issue started yesterday when I needed an emergency root canal, got half way through it and was told I needed it to be extracted instead, I was walked to Dr. Serrano's office and she saw me right away and made an appt for me today at 9am. Everyone was so friendly and efficient. I have super sensitive teeth and needed 3x than the usual anesthetic and Dr. Serrano was incredibly patient and just wanted me to be comfortable. So patient, so kind, her assistant even puts lip balm on your lips during the procedure which was much appreciated :) As someone who hates dentists and tries to avoid as much as possible, I'm so happy to be under Dr. Serrano's care.

I would recommend her without hesitation.

Strangely enough, I really enjoy going to her office! She is very attentive and will make you laugh and forget about the pain. She does the cleanings/work herself, along with her assistant, Cindy, who is also great. She also likes to try the different new dental "gadgets" (toothbrush, floss, and other stuff) and usually have free samples of everything she tries. You'll feel right at home at her office!

Dr. Kwon carved out time to see her even though she was not his patient. With great skill and compassion, Dr. Kwon calmed my wife down, took the necessary steps to steps to ensure her healing was without serious complications that required treatment, and proceeded to check in on her through texts and calls over the next several days and weeks. I highly recommend Dr. Kwon for his skill, attention to detail, and most of all for the compassion he has for his patients. Brookline Dental Center is lucky to have him as part of their staff. BTW-My wife is a nurse and I am a physician. We appreciate the importance of trust between a caregiver and a patient, that the caregiver will do their best to help a patient get well. Dr. Kwon excels at the most important aspect of healthcare, building and maintaining that trust.

As an octogenarian with complex medical issues, I needed to have two molar extractions under conscious sedation..As I requested, Dr. Amimi arranged for an anesthesiologist with her, who monitored the sedation. Both were excellent in that they were reassuring during the visit and I had virtually no pain during or afterwards and no complications. They were both accessible by phone before and after the procedure and the office staff was very friendly and helpful.

I was truly amazed at how relatively small and specific the areas of numbness were, yet I had zero pain! Assistant Carol will work closely to prepare you and answer questions, she also supported Dr. Barrett during the procedure. She is always smiling and laughing which for me, alleviated any anxiety I had about the procedure. My partner also had the same type of surgery with Dr. Barrett last year. His experience mirrored my own. Bonus! Dental Hygenist Tracey does an incredible job and truly cleans your teeth. I know this sounds obvious but after having our teeth cleaned by her, both my partner and I agreed there was a significant difference compared to cleanings we've had done at other offices in the past.

I'm really disappointed with this dental office. Out of nowhere, I received a bill on November 17th…read moreclaiming I owed $98 for a service done 16 months ago. The notice said it was my "final notification before collections" -- yet this was literally the first time I had ever been contacted about it. The office has my email and cell number, and they regularly text me for appointments, but never once sent any email, text, or call about this balance. They said they had mailed letters, but I had moved and had specifically informed the office of my new address, so they knew mailed statements wouldn't reach me. Despite that, they never used any of the contact methods I actually receive. The charge itself was for fluoride, which I never would have agreed to if I had known it wasn't covered by my insurance. It was $98 -- something that could easily be written off considering the circumstances. When I explained everything and asked them to comp it, I was told the staff member "did not have the authority" to adjust the balance. But after I mentioned that I would leave an honest review describing the situation, suddenly she did have the ability to offer 25% off. That made it clear that the earlier "I don't have the authority" line was simply a pressure tactic, not the truth. Overall, the lack of communication, the inaccurate claim that I had received multiple notices, and the sudden shift in what they "could" do once I pushed back all felt really unprofessional. I would recommend being extremely cautious with this office, especially around billing and transparency.

I understand I got a service from them but I only went because they told me it would be no cost under my insurance. Polly insinuates this is my fault for believing their front desk and that she is in charge. Really disappointing experience.

He contacted me later that evening to see how I was feeling. I had NO pain, swelling, soreness, tenderness or bruising which can often occur following a tooth extraction. He took his time to ensure my anatomical structures (jawbone) remained in tact which is extremely important in preparation for placement of a dental implant. He also gave me frequent breaks to rest my jaw. Dr. Hempton is extremely patient and an exceptional clinician.
