My dentist, Dr. Alikpala in Arlington, is caring and knowledgeable. She always makes sure I’m comfortable, explains the procedure, and makes sure I don’t have any questions about the treatment plan. She takes the time to show you pictures of your teeth and why she recommends a certain procedure. The dental office staff is friendly and even with a simple little filling, I will get a call later that day to make sure I’m okay. Dr. Alikpala and her team are fantastic.

Gentle Dental Waltham has every dental service you may need under one roof. Great staff and excellent office manager. My dental hygienist and dentist listen and answer my treatment questions. No matter what, they take great care of us!

This is an excellent dental practice with flexible scheduling and friendly staff. Hygienists and dentists are very knowledgeable and skilled. Would also recommend their periodontist. Prices are quite reasonable as well. The Saturday hours are a huge plus at this dentist in Belmont.
