I started treatment as an adult for surgery. My particular case was quite difficult. I was referred…read moreby another orthodontist to Carvalho and Roth. Orthodontics is an art form. I have had more than my fair share of dental issues. Many of the procedures are routine or systematic. Orthodontics, particularly pre-surgical orthodontics, is incredibly complex. The dentist has to envision what the oral surgeon would like to see, get it to that point, and then handle post-op processes. At every step, the team at Carvalho and Roth excelled. The surgeon was happy and the outcome is better than I could have hoped for. My case was particularly complex. If you are here, I hope that you do not have a case like mine. If you do, they know what to do and how to do it. If it is easier, you can expect excellent results. Their staff are fantastic. Every time I had an emergency (and yes you will have them), they saw me within 1 business day. Most of the time it was to get wires clipped. Braces suck. They make it better. I really can't give them enough praise but if you need it done, they can do it.

I feel so fortunate that we found this practice and highly recommend her to anyone in need of orthodontic care.

These days I have very little time to dress and shower forget about writing a review but when it…read morecomes to Katie Klein Orthodontics, I had to speak up. I am so sad that my two older sons did not have the opportunity to be patients with this practice. But I am SO grateful that my youngest son, who not only has sensory issues but who struggles tremendously with challenging, new experiences let alone ones that are not always very comfortable or pleasant, has had Katie and her staff for his braces journey. This practice is a more than a giant head and shoulders above the other two experiences I have had with orthodontists. The others were kind, professional and got the job done. ?!?! So, why is Katie so much better? It is hard to put into words how caring, honest, skilled and straightforward this practitioner is without seeming to be exaggerating. But I kid you not... she is the genuine article. Let's start with her ability to make it all look easy. The place is relaxed, clean and as she is chatting away like a good friend you are watching her expertly navigate your child's mouth and any trace of anxiety or discomfort. She makes incredibly difficult tasks look effortless and she smiles through it all. And of course, we need to talk about money. It is transparent from the get go. Financial plans and options are made available and you truly understand not only the cost but the cost benefit... every step of the way. Nothing is hidden, disguised or short-changed. And the highest quality of care is just her standard. What you are hoping for, as well as the reality of achieving this end result with realistic timing of outcomes, are explained clearly and expertly. Even more importantly, your child will be heard, attended to, motivated, supported and ultimately successful at Katie Klein. It is all the somewhat invisible intangibles.... A beyond accommodating front desk staff, frequent appointment reminders and yet no guilt or shame inducing practices when appointments are accidentally forgotten or simply missed due to a myriad of circumstances. It is all the big tangibles. You have an emergency? Or need a last minute appointment? You are not told they accommodated you. You are simply accommodated. Katie Klein and her practice are different, because she is that lightning in a bottle kind of Doctor. Real, compassionate, excellent, hardworking, non-judgmental and true to her word and ethics. You want her in your life. Your teeth and/or your child's teeth will thank you. Sure, you may leave many orthodontists with an externally beautiful smile. But it's the smile on your face that comes from working with a true heart that cares for you and your loved ones from the outside and the inside, that stays with you from here.

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.

Whoa!! Before I launch into my tirade, it might be useful to know a few things about me: One, I am…read moreridiculously organized about signing documents and keeping records. It's October, and I have already signed every permission slip for my son's field trips with school for the entire year. Two, I NEVER pay bills late, and in fact I regularly pay earlier than I should. I overpay my estimated taxes every year, knowing it's neither legally required nor financially wise, just because it makes me feel better not to owe money. I pay my credit card bill in full every month as soon as I get the bill, well before the due date. Three, I am a working mom, so I'm super busy during the day. It is in this context that I find Dr. Sacramone's behavior even more outrageous than I otherwise might. Here's the story: My daughter was going to get braces from Dr. Sacramone. We had several visits with him so he could review her records, decide on a treatment plan, take molds of her teeth, etc. I paid as invoiced. Once Dr. Sacramone settled on a treatment plan, my husband and I are called in for a consultation about it. (I had to work from home that day to meet with him.) At the consult, I got the sense that Dr. Sacramone was VERY money focused. It's not that I think he should work for fun. But it was weird. He is very put together and very well dressed, which makes it seem like he's more focused on how he looks at work than on the work itself. Maybe I'm out of bounds with that remark, but it seemed out of place. Anyway, the goal of the consult was to let us know how much it was going to cost: $6,500. (Is that a lot for braces? Honestly, I have no idea. We didn't shop around or talk with other orthodontists (although I guess now we will have to).) We set up the initial appointments for my daughter. She goes to her first appointment to get spacers. All good. Soon after that (a few days? not sure) I get a fat envelope from Dr. Sacramone in the mail. I don't have a chance to open it for a few days (that working mom thing), but when I do I see that it contains a pile of invoice stubs that I am supposed to send in once a month with payments. Included is a letter than explains that I am to pay $2,200 up front, plus $240 a month. The letter is dated Sep 26. The initial payment is stated as due on Sep 26. Of course it is already at least a couple of days after that. I immediately send a check for $2,440 for the initial payment and the October 1 monthly amount due. Fatal Flaw Number One -- I fail to notice, and therefore do not sign, the acknowledgment that explains that I understand the payment plan. Today, Oct 9. My daughter has her appointment at 1 p.m. to get the spacers removed and bands put on instead. Here's what happens: 1. I get a text from our amazingly-kind-and-easy-to-get-along-with nanny, who is taking my daughter to the appointment. She asks if I have the signed form to give to Dr. Sacramone's office. I am at work. I say I don't have it, but she can sign for me. She plans to take a photo of the form and do it in front of the secretary at Dr. Sacramone's office so they know she's signing as my agent. Should be easy enough. 2. I get a text from the nanny at 12:58 saying that they won't allow her to sign, and they want to talk to me. Still should be fairly straightforward, no? I tell her to have them call me but to please do it ASAP because I have a meeting (that working mom thing again) at 1. 3. Dr. Sacramone's secretary calls at 1 p.m. and tells me that they need to fax me the form immediately and that I need to sign it and return it before the appointment begins. I tell her that I am about to go into a meeting and that I will definitely send it back right afterward. She says she has to ask the doctor if he'll go ahead without it, and I am flabbergasted but tell her that if it's really a crisis, she should call my cell, and I'll leave my meeting to deal with it. I also point out that I have already sent them over 1/3 of the total cost of service already. She says they don't have it. (Really? I sent the check over a week ago.) 4. The secretary does not call, but she faxes the form at 1:20 p.m. I am in my meeting but I see it. I leave the meeting, sign the document and e-mail it to our nanny at 1:23, and she gives it to them. Fatal Flaw Number Two -- I only returned page 2 of the letter (with the signature page) not page 1. Not good enough. 5. It's 1:38 p.m. Apparently Dr. Sacramone takes my daughter in the back and then proceeds to come out to the front to confront our nanny. ("Is it too much to ask?" etc.) She tries telling him that she really has nothing to do with it, and he shouldn't be rude to her because it's not her fault. 6. 1:49 p.m. Again stopping work, I e-mail page 1. Hah! Too late! Dr. Sacramone has already told the nanny that he will not treat my daughter and has asked them to leave. WHAT?!? It seems I need to cancel my big fat check and find a new orthodontist. Ideas?

My wife and I have benifitted from the incredible talent of Dr. Howie who is clearly a cut above in his ability to do complex tooth "reconstruction" of some cracked back molars.
