I absolutely love coming to Dr Alex. She's a great dentist. Super friendly staff. Nice setup and relaxing atmosphere when you come in. Above all else, Dr Alex is one of the rare dentists who will only tell you what dental work is necessary to be done and what can wait. read more

Simply the best! From my first phone call with Selina to the delivery of my conservative veneers by Dr Naini this office exceeded every expectation I had for dentistry. Dr. Naini learns what you want, guides you along the way and truly listens to her patients. She explains every step, makes sure you have a healthy mouth to work with and then blows your mind with her cosmetic magic, all while being very conservative for the benefit of her patients finances and teeth health! When I tell you that you won't be able to stop smiling when you see her finished product, I'm not kidding - and expect a lot of compliments along the way! Her staff are wonderful as well, with reminders before every appointment and just kind and welcoming people. Could not be more happy and I've found my new dentist for life! read more

Dr. Naini is both professional and personal. She provides a level of care that is above and beyond other dentists in the area - she's great with hyper-sensitive patients, such as myself, while still being incredibly thorough and effective in her care. Each time I visit her, I learn a vast amount about dentistry and how it affects your overall health. It's because of her that I've adjusted to a healthier lifestyle. She's also one of the most positive people I've met, providing a pleasant environment. This, in turn, radiates through to her staff, who complement her environment well. Bottom line, she is the only dentist in the Washington, D.C. area that is worth seeing! read more

I have been coming to Dr. Naini for about 6 years now and her demeanor and dental skills are second to none. She asks a lot of questions about your health, dental and medical habits and does not suggest or perform unnecessary procedures. She and her staff are caring and very accommodating. The area is clean and calming. Her hours are very convenient and she is totally competent. read more

I've been coming to this dentist for almost 8 years now and have seen a number of changes over the years. Since it's been a while since my last review, I thought I'd provide an update with clearer pros/cons. PROs SPECIALTY & EXPERIENCE Dr Alex Naini takes time out to get additional training, attend workshops and conferences, connect with mentors with decades of experience treating patients with various dental problems. This translates to a doctor with well-rounded experience that can help you find the right solution, even if it means taking a more conservative approach rather than jumping right into the costlier alternative. BEDSIDE MANNER Dr. Naini is calm, friendly, patient and will take as much time needed to make sure you have the answers you need to make an informed decision. She doesn't hesitate to go above and beyond either, something she does with new patients and with old patients as well. PAYMENT PLANS/PROGRAMS I know in the past they had a few payment plans and payment programs available to help break down the cost of procedures into more manageable monthly payments. I'm not sure of all the ins/outs of it since I've always used my FSA and never participated in the programs myself. But I felt it was worthwhile to mention. ================ CONs NO HAPPY GAS - Yes, it is a dental spa but there's no laughing gas for procedures here. If you're antsy about certain dental procedures (with all their drills, sounds, probing and prodding) and can only sit still with the help of laughing gas then this might not be the right place for you. INSURANCE CLAIMS - As another yelper mentioned here, she's not an in-network dentist and while they will submit your insurance claim on your behalf there's a lot of problems that can and do come along with that. You will pay more out of pocket here than you would elsewhere. However, you will also get more specialized care here than many other dental offices in the area. You have to decide which one you're most able to tolerate. STAFF CHANGEOVER - There's been several major staff changes since I've started coming here. Sometimes its personal (career, health, family, etc) other times, not so much. While that can mean new insights and new methods, that also means major learning curves. There's new staff to learn the systems, how things are done here, etc and that can mean incorrect data put into your file, late invoices, unfiled claims, wrong addresses on file etc. This has been a repeated experience of mine and honestly it's beyond nerve racking. I keep coming to this office because of the dentist and her TMJ Disorder specialty but I can see why others may want to give up and just go to another office after a few rounds of this. With these cons you, as the patient, will really have to be very diligent with making sure your claims are submitted on time to the right insurance company and more than likely you'll have to do it multiple times and it will end up being more expensive than a regular in-network doctor. ================ CONCLUSION/BOTTOM LINE A knowledgeable dentist with a number of specialties, but a high-cost and high commitment by the patient to be diligent and persistent. read more

Aesthetic Dental Spa- like a spa for your chompers. Mimicking a spa, the dental assistants ask if you'd like tea while you wait and there are candles around the office and soothing music in the background. Me? I'm just here to get my teeth cleaned and get some fillings done. While Dr. Naini is a great dentist (extremely thorough and gentle), homegirl doesn't take insurance. Yes, she doesn't take insurance. She noted that they submit the claim to your insurance with the hopes that basic tiers are covered but if your experience is anything like mine, you'll end up paying upwards of $200 per cavity filling, for example. Additionally, since they submit your claim on your behalf, there's no guarantee of coverage so you generally have to pay for most services up front. Definitely a bummer. One great thing about Dr. Naini is that, if scheduled ahead of time, will allow certain appointments after office hours. I've scheduled cavity fillings with her after work since I wasn't able to come in during office hours- a nice touch! Again, since ADS doesn't accept insurance, it's definitely not a dentist for everyone. If you can afford paying a little bit more for quality dental work. Would you be able to find a cheaper in-network alternative? More than likely, but Dr. Naini is worth the visit if your wallet can stomach it. read more

Still sitting in the chair. Just had a filling done. No numbing necessary because she is that good. I was so comfortable I was able to text while getting it done. My tooth is better than it has looked in a long time! Bedside manner is far above average. Tons of amenities to make you comfortable. All complimentary! And a therapy puppy to boot! Best dentist ever. I actually look forward to my next visit. read more

What an absolutely incredible dentist! I had veneers and a jaw realignment done over the past several months and let ,e tell you that it was a true pleasure to be able to have Dr. Naini work with me. I am moving to Colorado but plan on flying back to use Dr. Naini - yes, she's that good....actually Great!!! Thx Alex for all your help! read more

Where do I start? If you're looking for a highly professional dentist, or need custom cosmetic work done, this office will exceed your expectations. First off, after speaking with local receptionist Tiya Thompson, I was immediately impressed by her pleasant phone skills, professionalism and upbeat demeanor. Secondly, once I arrived for my initial consulation, I was feel in love with atmosphere, very Buddha like, tranquil with lighted candles and soft music. It was very comforting. Lastly, there's Alex Naini, a 20 year veteran of the dental arts who is a master of her trade. This young lady is a pro. The icing on the cake - the office dog. This little, fluffy white poodle is adorable and won't hestitate to jump up a snuggle right next to you during your services. Seriously, this dog is so cute. In closing, I highly recommend Aesthetic Dental Spa to anyone in the DMV area who is searching for a well-qualified, friendly and honest trained professional. Barry- read more

I have been going to dr Naini for years. Now I take my kids there and she is awesome with them too. Love her!

There's no PAIN here, I LOVE it. From the moment you walk in, there is a feeling of relaxation with low candles and a warm greeting. Dr. Naini planned a customized approach to my oral needs all while being wrapped in comfort and head support with a pillow. Her knowledge of innovative techniques, gentle touch and lifestyle driven approach to her art makes her above the rest in my book. Thank you!!! read more

I love Aesthetic Dental Spa! I had TMJ pain for years and my previous dentists were never able to treat it properly. Dr. Naini fitted me for a night guard and within 2 weeks my jaw pain was gone! No more swelling, no more headaches. I come to ADS for everything now and so does my family. Dr. Naini is extremely knowledgable and patient. I highly recommend her for quality dental work. read more

I have had a fear of dentists since I was a teenager due to more than a few bad experiences. On a whim,after much agonizing I went to see Dr. Naini.It may be the best thing I have ever done for myself! She is the best dentist ever! I don't think I'll ever be afraid of the dentist again thanks to Dr.Naini and her staff.(sedation dentistry is the best) read more

I've been going to Aesthetic Dental Spa for years and have recommended it to many friends. This is, hands down, the best dental office and dentist I've ever visited. First, let's talk about the service. You walk in and there are candles lit, soft music playing, and refreshments offered (teas, coffees, snacks, etc.) Unlike other dental offices that are bright and bustling, this office exudes a sense of calm. They generally schedule only one patient at a time. Other than her staff, I'm often the only one there. You'll be led to a soft leather dental chair and asked if you're comfortable. If you aren't you'll be given a pillow (a pillow!) and a blanket to make you more comfy. If you're nervous, Dr. Naini has preloaded ipods with different music that you can use to calm your nerves. I selected Frank Sinatra. So, the office and atmosphere are fantastic. Let's get down to the meat - is Dr. Naini any good as a dentist? Major YES! I had a medical condition that caused my teeth to be very sensitive. I used to dread going to the dentist because the tartar scraping was so painful. Dr. Naini is gentle and always asks which teeth are painful so she can be extra careful. My regular cleaning are a breeze now. Also, I had several large metal fillings that were beginning to deteriorate. Dr. Naini has systematically replaced each one, cleaned out the decay (if you have metal fillings, trust me, your teeth are rotting beneath each one), and replaced the old fillings with something white and impermeable. Not only do they feel better, they look better! Dr. Naini spends a lot of time with me. She does the cleaning, not an assistant. She talks to me about my teeth, not the assistant. Actually, she talks to me about a lot of things as she is genuinely interested in her patients. I can't recommend her highly enough. She is a great person, and a great dentist! read more

I was insecure about my smile for years, and was ready for a smile makeover. Other cosmetic dentists had suggested plans that were way out of my budget, and not a good long term solution, and I left their office feeling worse than when I came in. Thank goodness that I found Dr. Naini! She is so compassionate, and incredibly skilled, she knew exactly what I was trying to accomplish and came up with a creative plan for my smile that was healthy, affordable, and more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Dr. Naini is a perfectionist and cares so much about her patients that you can feel it from the moment you meet her. Her joy and confidence are contagious, even before we started treatment, I was already feeling more confident! I can't even describe how happy and amazed I am to have gone from the painful experience of being embarrassed and hiding my smile, to now getting compliments from strangers! I am so grateful to Dr. Naini and her staff for transforming my smile, and making every step of the process a truly wonderful and healing experience. read more

I went to see Dr Naimi on November 12 2014 at 2.p.m. I have been treated like a queen with extreme care and accommodation. Dr Naimi is par excellence a skilled, caring, thorough and erudite dentist in her field. she provided me with an upmost care and comfort. her assistant Taya is extremely welcoming and sweet. I highly recommend Dr, Naimi, and her office is the dream dental spa read more

I came to this office on referral from a friend. My first visit in 2010 was fine. The office seemed to be staffed appropriately (receptionist, 2 hygienists), Dr. Naini was very friendly & seemed competent. There was no spa type atmosphere however. For the first 2 visits I was offered a pillow & blanket but that did not continue. After my first visit I noticed a decline in staff, only one dental hygienist was there, and Dr. Niani was late for every office visit. One time in particular she was over 1.5 hours late. I needed to have a lot of work done which was completed in 6/2010. I asked if they accepted my insurance at the very first visit & was told yes. At the end of each visit I was told how much I owed & paid it accordingly. It turned out that only the initial office visit & the second office visit claims were submitted to my insurance company in a timely manner. One year later I receive a statement that has a "balance forward" amount of almost $3,000 (I had already paid over $5,000 out of pocket). I sent letters & called repeatedly to speak with Dr. Niani about this & was only ever able to talk with the new receptionist. Dr. Niani never had the common courtesy to return a phone call to me. She just keeps sending statements with no other correspondence. I have never written a bad review but feel that since Dr. Naini continues to ignore me I should warn others. This has turned out to be the worst dental office experience I have ever encountered. Her business practice is almost fraudulent & she apparently does not care about her patients after they leave the office. If all you need is a general cleaning, this may be the place for you. If you get sucked in by her charm & decide to have more work done, make sure you get in writing how much the procedure will cost & that they have contacted your insurance company for a quote on covered/non-covered expenses. Even then beware, my husband came in for a deep cleaning & was told how much it would cost but then halfway through the procedure was told that they quoted him the wrong price & that it would be almost double. read more
