Many doctors said that my front teeth were hopeless, the only thing I could do is to replace them with braces. One doctor suggested that I see Dr. Zhang for the last hope. At that time, I'm over 50 years old. I don't have much confidence. To my surprise, Dr Zhang said she could straighten my teeth and my teeth might be saved. Dr. Zhang was highly knowledgeable and took the time to explain each step of my treatment plan in detail. Her attention to detail and precision were remarkable. Furthermore I didn't experience pain when I first got braces and after brace tightening, only a mild discomfort. Thanks to Dr. Zhang's expertise, my teeth are now beautifully aligned, and I couldn't be happier with the results. My teeth are healthy after more than 10 years passed.

She provided a solution in the form of a different flosser and sent us on our way with a sample. As a child I had terrible experiences that left me anxiety-ridden when it comes to dental visits. I'm so grateful my child has had nothing but wonderful experiences with Sara, Dr. Krausz and your other staff.

I have been going to Newton Dental Associates for about eight years. I see Dr. Osofvsky and she's…read moregreat; very kind, always willing to listen to and address concerns. In the last few years Annette has been my hygienist. She is very nice and super gentle. I have receding gums and some sensitivity as a result but Annette is so meticulous, I never feel the cleaning in any of those sensitive spots. The office is relatively newly renovated, so it's comfortable and bright waiting room to sit in before your appointment begins. They're always pretty close to on time. Even in the middle of the day I don't think I've had to wait more than ten or so minutes for my appointment to begin. I always leave with my teeth clean and bright. They're the first to offer me a fluoride treatment for my sensitive teeth/gums despite complaints of the issue for years prior and that's been amazing! They did my full Invisalign program and they were great. My teeth had this issue where when I closed my mouth the top and bottom molars didn't touch. They even offered a treatment that expedited how quickly the teeth move (science!). I see a lot of complaints about billing and pricing. So they do charge you for services. Their services are covered by my dental insurance and I haven't found the out of pocket costs outlandish. Where certain amounts are not covered I receive a bill in the mail after insurance adjustments. Seems pretty standard. While I'm sure they would be able to help a prospective patient determine if their dental insurance was accepted, that is an essential step that you have to take as a patient with any healthcare provider. They are very thorough and I'm sure they charge accordingly. I have been to some shady dentists and the cost reflected that. I agree it's not ideal to have to pay so much for needed healthcare services, but this is less a Newton Dental Associates problem and more a state of American healthcare problem.

As a senior citizen who has moved frequently, I've faced the challenge of finding a new dentist…read moreeach time I relocated. Unfortunately, I've recently encountered difficulties in finding a reputable and trustworthy dentist. Over the years, I've encountered numerous dentists who seem to recommend unnecessary and costly procedures solely for financial gain. My most recent experience with Chestnut Hill Dental at 631-A VFW Parkway in Chestnut Hill was particularly disheartening. I chose this dental practice because they were within my insurance network. I had recently undergone a root canal performed by an endodontist on one of my molars, and I needed to replace the temporary filling (which had been placed by the endodontist) with a permanent one. Both the endodontist and my former dentist had recommended a specific filling with the dental code D2391. I reached out to my dental insurance company, and they informed me that the contracted fee with dentists in their network for this procedure was $160, and my out-of-pocket cost would be 25%, amounting to $40. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Prasadini Shetty at Chestnut Hill Dental for the D2391 filling on my molar. However, upon arriving for my appointment, I was informed that they intended to perform a core build-up, which they quoted at $278 as my cost, with the remainder covered by insurance. I reiterated my request for the D2391 filling. A core build-up is typically recommended when the tooth's structure is weak and a crown needs to be done on the tooth. In my case, I already had a crown on that tooth. The endodontist had skillfully performed a root canal by drilling a small hole through the crown. After some persistence, they finally agreed to proceed with just the filling. At this juncture, I became increasingly uncomfortable with their insistence on an unnecessary and costly procedure. For the filling, they requested an upfront copayment of $49, even though my insurance company had assured me that my payment should only be $40 (25% of the contracted fee of $160), and I had already met my deductible for the year. Their explanation for the $49 figure was perplexing. I insisted on paying the $40 as advised by my insurance company, indicating my willingness to cover the additional $9 if my insurance determined it to be necessary after billing. However, they continued to press for the $49 upfront payment before proceeding with the procedure. It became evident that their primary focus was financial gain rather than the well-being of their patients. Fortunately, I recognized their true priorities before committing to any further treatment. Furthermore, I was dissatisfied with the condition of their facility, which was located in a damp, enclosed basement with noticeable rust spots on the ceiling.
