I went in today as a new patient and the entire experience was great. The staff were friendly and professional. Also, the booking process was quick and easy. They sent a reminder text to confirm the appointment. read more

I was a patient here for a few years. I know the routine pretty well. "Have any vacations coming up?" etc... While I don't have any complaints about the quality of the work, I do have to give a heads up about a tactic to pressure you into work that may or may not be necessary. There's a bit of a routine that I've experienced a few times. " This tooth is ______ and we should _____. We should take care of this as soon as possible. Do you have time today?" After a couple 'emergencies' over the years, I caught on. My last 'emergency', about 10 years ago, required the pulling of multiple teeth. I declined and got a second opinion. Those teeth are still in my mouth as I write this review and that money is still in my pocket. The friend who initially recommended me had a similar experience and has since moved on as well. Word to the wise, just be on your guard. read more

I have been going to Faneuil Hall Dental Associates (FHD) since 1995 (over 26 years) after moving to the Boston area! They are truly the best dental group I have ever been to. Victoria is my hygienist. She is thorough and always has done an excellent job with my bi-annual cleanings. Dr. Kahveci (a.k.a. Dr. K) is very caring and excellent at his work. He goes out of his way to do the best job for your needs. I wouldn't want any other dentist fixing my teeth! Dr. K is always there for you in an emergency too. One day I had an emergency with one of my teeth that had previously had a root canal done and he fit me into his busy schedule without issue. His office has also taken care of all my dental claims with the various providers I've had over the years. They even took care of me during the 'Recession' only charging me the minimum for a filling when I was unemployed. During the pandemic FHD has taken extra steps to protect their clients and staff, which made me feel very safe going in for a cleaning. They were also very flexible when I needed to change an appointment. FHD also has complimentary parking at the Parking Garage next to the Boston Aquarium, a very short walk to their office. This is so helpful, especially during this pandemic, when I was not comfortable riding into town on the 'T'. After getting married, I introduced my husband to Dr. K and his team, and he has been a regular patient since then. Over the years Dr. Kahveci has brought in another dental specialist named Dr. Amini-Sami. She is very good at cosmetic dental needs. She helped reconstruct a tooth for me that had broken, due to being very weak from an old root canal. I can't say enough good things about this dental practice. I highly, without reservations, recommend Faneuil Hall Dental Associates! read more

Love these peeps! I usually see my dentist over holidays back home but because ADULTING happened...stupid... I had to find my own. A friend referred me here and I have not been disappointed. Dr. Kahveci and Dr. Amini-Sami are total G's. S/O to Christy and Allison too! I needed a crown and both docs went over cost with insurance and everything else, they were true professionals but like their white coats already say that #fashionableaf. I actually look forward to going there because of how welcoming everyone is! Yikes. read more

The team at Faneuil is so skilled, highly professional and pleasant. They make Booking and reminders so easy, they help me navigate insurance and my teeth are cared for exceptionally well. Go. You might even come to love the dentist. read more

I have been going to Dr Kahveci for 24 years. I switched my entire family once he opened a suburban office. He and Dr Amini and team are THE BEST DENTISTS EVER. We are moving out of state and we plan to come up twice a year for our exams because there is no comparison. If you want pain-free dental work and a team that truly cares, this is the only place to come, Faneuil Hall Dental and Speen Family Dental. Top notch!!! read more

After several conversation with the receptionist and Dr K. I am updating my review. The dentist decided not to charge me the fee after all. I was pretty upset after hearing they want to charge me 248 dollars out of pocket. I Do recommend them if you are covered you just want to double and triple check before and probably want to get it in writing too. Because dentistry is one of this grey areas on business charges they can pretty much charge what ever they want. Victoria the hygienist was the best i have ever gone too. very quick and painless. I had a lot of plaque but that didn't seem to be an issue. I guess if you have delta dental premiere then you have nothing to worry about. The Receptionist was a total bitch. TOTAL RIP OFF. Great if they don't rip you off on the way out. You need premier insurance only. I called for an appointment and was told that my insurance was covered for a cleaning. I went and got my cleaning, which was pretty fast and painless. The day before and of the appointment I got several calls that they could not find my insurance. Even when I gave them my insurance number. I was told that if they do not call back then i am all set. So i go there and on my way out I am told they only take the premiere version of my insurance. Please pay two payment of 124 dollars. I couldn't understand how it could cost that much for a cleaning and promptly left. The receptionist seem clueless. Buyer beware if you get anything major done beause god only know what it would cost. They won't tell you until you are on your way out the door. But at least you can break it down in two payments. :( How does two payments help you? read more

This is my 2nd review since my last one 3 years ago. Aside from good experiences and pain free, all I have to say is Dr. K is the sweetest dentist I've ever met! read more

Who in their right mind takes time out of their day to post a Yelp review about their dentist's office? I DO, BECAUSE VICTORIA IS AWESOME! I've been coming here for 7+ years and can't imagine going anywhere else. Victoria, my hygienist, is very friendly and low key and amazingly gentle with my awful gums. She knows how much I hate being there and knows how much stuff I can tolerate, so she figures out how much she can do with me in one session within those limits. For someone I only see a few times a year, who sees hundreds of other people in the meantime, she creates a very personalized experience! Also, unlike other medical offices where you might have to chase them down to get an appointment or deal with insurance stuff, I feel completely comfortable putting myself entirely in their hands and doing what they tell me. Time for another round of full x-rays (on the fancy digital machines, of course)? Ok, if you say so, go for it. My insurance will only cover certain things per year, but I should really have more than that and this is the proposed discounted price that insurance won't cover? Yup, I trust that you're doing what's in my mouth's and my wallet's best interest, let's do it. I cannot recommend this entire practice highly enough. read more

The *best* dentistry experience I have ever known. In 1998 I met this practice at the recommendation of my friend Steve Harrington. Doctor Kahveci and his team are amazing. They clean and curate your teeth... you would expect that obviously. That's what we are paying for, of course. I have other teeth issues related to prior root canals. Dr Kahveci picked up on those. He has an amazing new scanner system. He talked to me a about those, too. One last story: Was sitting next to a woman 'Laura' at the office. Very smart, very switched-on.... A colleague Jian asked, "I need a dentist". I said, "I have your solution... my dentist is the best" Laura said, "No... my dentist is the best." We let it go... but 3 months later Jian asked me,,, "I need your dentist name." I said, "Faneuil Hall Dental" Laura said, without missing a beat: "523-4444" 4 months of confrontation and we were on the same page... hahahahah~! read more

I hadn't paid a visit to the dentist in a few years, so I expected to be bamboozled with dental issues. Quite the contrary -- no cavities! I expected them to try to sell me some expensive treatment, but they didn't do that either. The dental assistant was warm, and gentle on my gums. I had to have a deep cleaning and she warned me I might not be able to eat for a day, but I was fine by the end of the day and I attribute it to her TLC. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars, is because of this: I called to schedule my appointment in late November, and had to pay a $50 "annual" co-pay. When I visited for my follow-up in January, I had to pay the $50 co-pay again. I would've gladly waited an extra couple months to see the dentist had I known the co-pay was cycled on the calendar year, and the receptionist should have/could have been more considerate and given me that information up front. Still, great service and friendly staff all-around. read more

An amazing dentist practice. The entire group is first rate and they are very much on top of new development and procedures in dentistry. Their offices are very comfortable and they keep up with renovations that make the patients feel welcome and comfortable (and entertained). I would highly recommend them as I have been a patient since their early days (22+ years now). read more

These guys are the holy grail of dentistry! The best experience all around! Everyone is so nice and friendly that it feels like a family. And lets not forget the quality: I literally had tiers of happiness when I saw my new smile. I am a much happier person now that my teeth are fixed and whitened. Recommend to everyone. read more

Dr. Kahveci's team is so knowledgeable and caring. Costs were a factor for me when considering my care, and they were so honest and helpful in making sure that I took the most strategic route to get my wisdom teeth extracted. I'm so thankful for the great patient service! read more

Dr. K and his staff have changed my opinion about making trips to the dentist. Everyone at FHD is extremely professional, friendly, and caring, whilst offering a stellar service. They take extreme caution to detail and review your history as to ensure the proper care that best suits your needs. Affordably priced, you never feel as though you're being taken advantage of and with each visit you feel as though your business is truly appreciated. I've had a lot of work done here from cleanings, to fillings, bridge work etc and I trust Dr. K because he has shown himself to be honest and open, while maintaining integrity and his patients' interest at heart. He isn't the sort of doctor you've come to expect that shows up with a clipboard and doesn't even make eye contact; quite the opposite in fact. He listens to you every concern and puts you at ease during a normally anxiety filled event. I only wish it hadn't taken me so long to find his office. read more

I actually don't mind going to the dentist. Is that weird? Well, you would understand what I meant if you came here too. I have been a patient for almost 15 years. From the first day I walked through the doors I was comfortable - the staff is extremely nice and accommodating, the office is clean, pleasant and decorated in tropical fish. There is a flute lamp and great books in the waiting area, but the best part - there are TV's on the ceiling in each room! Choose what you want to watch, listen to music or opt for quiet. It's a nice distraction or a great way to catch up on a show depending on who you are. All these little details and touches are done to make going to the dentist a little easier for all of us. I've gotten several teeth cleanings here - Victoria has always been great and hooks you up with a dental goodie bag to bring home. Julia the receptionist is so nice and polite. Dr. Kahveci, Claudia and the rest of the crew are so kind and very professional. I've had X-rays, cavities filled, invisalign, cleanings - all great experiences. I highly recommend Faneuil Hall Dental Associates. My family and several friends have come here and all are very happy. There is a good crew here who will look after you and your killer smile. read more

Dr K is a jewel! He is friendly, gentle, and very thorough....always taking time to carefully explain each step he is making and informing me so that I am really included in every decision for my best oral health. Victoria is gentle and careful as she cleans my teeth. She is friendly and kind, letting me know different things I can do at home to take the best care of myself. She is thorough and quick, so even if I only have time during lunch, I'm in and out. I am so glad to have found them!! read more

flossy flossy. For reasons still unknown to me I resist brushing more than once a day and I never floss. whatever. I first came to Faneuil Hall Dental Associates because I heard they had TVs on the ceiling and I thought that would be the best thing to distract me from the trauma of a cleaning. the TVs are a pretty good diversion -but my lovely hygienist is so quick and deft that even a deep scaling feels virtually painless. She truly has a gift. Maybe I have a high pain threshold but I honestly felt nothing. I warned her that I can't handle the shame and blame flossing lecture most dentists try and pull and she graciously responded with "you're adult you know what you need to do so I wont say anything, just come in regularly for cleanings and you'll be fine." really that's it? no guilt trip? no pain? and even an awesome lil travel toothbrush kit?! oh and it's a free for all in the bathroom, toothpaste, brushes, pens, mouthwash- bonanza time in there I didn't want to leave. I may actually come back for my next scheduled appointment but there is still no way in hell I am going to start flossing. read more

I just recently relocated from Maryland and did not have a dentist in the area yet. Yesterday my molar broke and I desperately began calling every dentist in the Boston area to see who could take me the same day very last minute and also accepted my insurance. FH Dental turned out to be more than the perfect fit. They spent over 30 minutes on the phone with my insurance company before I came in to ensure I would be covered and called me back to give me updates as I was on my way. I called around 2 and was in the chair by 3:30. The hygenists and Dr. Kahveci were extremely helpful and kind (especially considering my terrible fear of the dentist). I never take the time to write Yelp reviews, but this office definitely deserves one. I would highly recommend FH dental to anyone in the area! This was the best experience I've ever had with a dentist. read more

This review is for individuals that avoid the dentist out of fear. I have an extreme fear of going to the dentist, to the point where I would wait a few years in between appointments. I am an adult woman and I would cry, shake and make them stop. At one point I had a dentist that had to give me valium for a cleaning. With that said, I told Victoria, the hygienist to not be offended if I start crying and shaking but I really don't do well at the dentist. She assured me all would be ok. She stuck to her word! She was so gentle and on point with the cleaning that I was surprised when it was over. Dr. K then came in to examine, also very gentle! Both of them together actually made me walk out of the office with a smile! I did have to return to repair a filling that one previous dentist botched up severely. Dr. K assured me that if I felt any pain at all, he would stop. Now some dentists you go to pump you up with so much Novocain you cant feel your face or talk for an entire day. Not Dr. K, I never felt ONE thing and my face and mouth feel completely normal. I was able to listen to music and I closed my eyes the entire time. Again, quick and painless. This is the best dentist I have been to my entire life. The staff is so awesome. The decor is very zen and soothing. There are televisions on the ceiling to take your mind away but I did prefer music and closing my eyes. If you are looking for a new dentist or are new to the area, run to this practice. Hands down the best dentist experience. read more

I'm leaving this practice after 2 years. I had a cavity filled by Dr K in June. A few days later I started having throbbing pain at the site that would waken me at night. I called the office and was told that Dr K was on vacation and that they couldn't help me. That was it. No concern, no follow-up, no offer to have a covering dentist check and see if I needed antibiotics or a root canal. I found another dentist who evaluated the problem, and referred me to an oral surgeon. And who followed up to see how I made out. FH Dental always felt a little like a factory. The hygienists were friendly and good, but Dr K was an indifferent dentist. read more

The dentists are all very friendly and professional. I have no complaints so far about their work. However, what is really annoying about this practice is that I think they have contracted out with an in-office medical advertising company to play you ads. There are TVs installed above each chair that play annoying 30-minute infomercials about exercise machines (the same ad playing on both my visits so far). Even after I asked for the TV to be turned off, I could still hear the advertisement playing loudly in the room beside. If I am paying hundreds of dollars for dental care, I don't think I should have to suffer through listening to infomercials throughout my entire visit. read more

I hadn't been to a dentist in a long time and was really worried with my visit. I had to have a lot of work done, but each visit was extremely efficient and I was in and out with minimal pain. The office staff were all very friendly. The office itself had a lot of equipment and fun little features as well that I was not used to when visiting the dentist (I especially liked the TVs in the ceiling). I would highly recommend getting dental work done in this office! read more

As someone with serious dental anxiety, I have found FDHA a welcomed relief. Both Dr. K and Victoria went above and beyond to ensure no pain and excellent dental work. They were careful to describe everything that was happening and even caught a crack in a tooth that my previous dentist didn't see. Highly recommend. read more

I'm writing to update this review. It's now 2013. After seeing Dr. K the one time, I went on to see another dentist who made me feel comfortable with his personality and bedside manner, but ultimately not with his work. I am currently seeing Dr. Nager at Belmont Dental Group, and I can recommend him with complete confidence. I'd be happy to speak with anyone, via email, Yelp mail, telephone, you name it. I can not stress this highly enough: my experience at Dr. K's office continues to cause me to have concerns, not for me or for my teeth, but for hapless people who might stumble into his office with indications that they've had poor dental history and therefore might be ripe for financial fleecing. I'm glad that so many others have had positive experiences. I did not, and even if somehow Yelp thinks this review was written by an automaton, I can assure you -- I'm a real person, with real teeth, and I have rarely been as upset as I was on the day that I visited Dr. K. Caveat emptor... ***** I have some pretty serious concerns about Dr. K's bedside manner (note, I never got his actual name). I went in as recommended by a friend for what I thought was going to be an emergency evaluation of some symptoms that I was having (bad swelling in my lower jaw, along with pus -- a likely abscess, for which I was given antibiotics). I got some confusing answers as to the origin of the symptoms, and was then told that I would need major work on at least three teeth -- but not told that any of that work would address the symptoms. I had been in the room for less than 15 minutes (during which he performed a very cursory look-and-see exam, and had a technician take a bunch of x-rays which were displayed with very fuzzy resolution) when Dr. K asked if "I had time today", and when I said yes, began numbing my mouth. Halfway through this, I called halt. I felt confused and upset that I had not had a conversation about what he was actually proposing to do, and how it related to the symptoms that had brought me in. I had *no* idea of the costs associated, how many appointments what he was proposing would take to complete, how long I would be there today, or what other options I had to choose from. I was never really consulted in any of the matters. It was as if he assumed that because he had told me what he thought I needed to have done, I was agreeing to it. When I asked for this, he stared at me as if I had asked for something unthinkable, and then said I had other options -- I could have the tooth pulled, or I could have "a sedative filling that would give me a couple of months" today. I still felt confused, rushed, and anxious; and so I asked for a list of his recommendations, and then left, quickly, with my mouth partially numb. In retrospect, I find all of this to be extremely concerning. He may well be an excellent dentist. But, as an educated and self-aware person -- even if I have a problem with some tooth, as I obviously knew before meeting him! -- I feel that there should have been some very thorough communication before ANY action began. I remain, quite frankly, shocked by his conduct. Quite simply: no, I will not be going back! read more

Recently moved from SF to Boston and needed a Dentist. Checked out yelp as well as recommendations from friends. This place was awesome. My last dentist was super sensitiive, Vicotoria at Faneuil Hall surpassed that. No pain, no feeling of anything, it was great. Highly recommend them if you want an easy, painfree dentist experience was great results. read more

I have been a patient here for many years! I have no complaints what so ever. I used to be scared of going to the dentist, but Dr. K and the rest of his staff have extremely gentle hands! I feel very comfortable going in. I also love how the staff explains what is being done, why, and what you can do at home. I have recommended this dental office to many and will continue doing so! Every time I get a compliment on my smile I tell people to pay Dr. K a visit! read more

Full disclosure: I haven't been seen at this office since March of last year. Where I have been since is two different dentists who both gave me similar diagnoses surrounding some of the work I've had done here. While I still stand by my assertation that the staff (Victoria, in particular, is fantastic) do their best to make your time with them as painless as possible, I'm not so convinced that all the work was done in my best interest. It turns out that fillings I had slightly changed the alignment of my front teeth because of a gap in between the teeth that should have thrown up a red flag for larger problems. There are a few other problems I've experienced in terms of the work I had done in my original review. I actually stopped going to this office after they ignored cavities I had in lieu of maxing out my insurance benefits to remove old silver fillings and replace them with newer filling material. While I don't disagree that the silver fillings could and should have been removed, I'm not sure I understand the reasoning of forgoing filling current cavities over fixing ones that had already been filled (even if the filling was deteriorating). I'm not saying this is a terrible office, and to be perfectly honest I should have asked more questions and not just blindly agreed to having work done - no blame can be placed on them if I didn't question treatments at the time they were being quoted to me or given to me. This is honestly closer to a 3.5 for me, but because some of the issues could have been solved by my speaking up, I don't think it's fair to the office to give them a 3. read more

I've been going to FHD for over 14 years and I love it there. Dr K is amazing! He's gentle, understanding and very friendly. I've had everything from crowns to invisalign and the work is remarkable. I'm a tough dental patient and have never had a bad experience there. Victoria is my hygienist and she is very meticulous but is able to get you in and out quickly. Julia is the office manager and has all your billing up to date and accurate. Claudia often assists Dr K is very knowledgeable and makes getting a crown a breeze. Did I mention they have TVs in the ceilings?! Catching up on daytime TV while getting your teeth cleaned; it doesn't get much better than that! read more

I've been a client of Dr.K's for well over a decade- he and his team are excellent. I especially like how respectful they are of my time, in addition to being excellent dental professionals. Regular appointments have never been more than 30 mins. And their back office is proactive with managing insurance. Highly recommend.... read more

SIMPLY THE BEST! I am a horrible dental patient, I admit it. Terrible experiences at the dentist when I was young and I don't think I've ever completely recovered. I am a nervous wreck when it comes to drilling and needles. No fear anymore! First appointment for something other than a cleaning was today and it was amazingly easy (for me, anyway). Dr. K and his entire staff are incredible. Professional, skilled, and kind. So very happy I found them! read more

I have had some really bad dental experience in the past, so when my friend referred me to this group I was cautiously optimistic. My past dentist (who was actually quite popular) would push me to get unnecessary procedures and mouth guards, just to push you to open your wallet. I knew other people who had the same experience. It had been a while since I had my last cleaning which was so mentally scarring I was scared to get anything done again. The team made sure I felt comfortable and was understanding of my past experiences. I've been going here for the last year and a half and I am always pleasantly surprised by how comfortable I feel there every single time. I never feel rushed, I am NEVER pushed to do things I don't want to do, and just plainly well taken care of. The entire team is professional, nice, and clearly know what they are doing. I'm very happy to have found this practice! read more

I have been going to the same dentist for 18 years, but moved to Boston to work in the amazing healthcare system this city has. It made it much easier to say goodbye to my old dentist after my first trip to see Dr. Kahveci and team at Faneuil Hall!! The place was immaculate, beautiful and comfortable. The team was friendly and intelligent. The trip was quick and thorough. They went above and beyond a simple cleaning and made me feel cared for and important. 10/10 experience. What a great way to start my day :) read more

I recently moved from the Los Angeles area to Boston. I never really liked going to the dentist, not because I don't like the experience of getting dental work done, but because I have never found a dentist that I liked or trusted. That all ended on thursday when I had the pleasure of getting a cleaning at Faneuil Hall Dental. I have not been to the dentist is 5 years, yet they made the visit so comfortable. If I was ever to recommend a Dentist it would be this place. read more

I just wanted to tell the world how great my denist and his staff are! I've been going there for about a year and in that time I've had a cap replaced and have had the Invisilign treatments. My smile is so much better and I could not be more pleased. Dr K is gentle with the needle and very calm and pleasant. The hygenists and reception always greet me with a friendly smile and I've never had to wait for my appointment. The office is very calming and clean and pretty. It's been a great experience for me and I'm so glad to have a great dentist. read more

I have been a patient here for such a long time and have never had a bad experience. Trust me when I tell you that you will not regret coming here. The staff is absolutely phenomenal: friendly, courteous and comforting. They are never pushy with anything, but definitely do help steer you in the right direction as for whitening and other treatments. The atmosphere is very welcoming and it doesn't hurt that they have TV's in the ceiling to entertain. The office, rooms, and restrooms are pristine at ALL times! I moved away for school yet I still make the trip back here because you can never find this type of service anywhere else. read more

Been seeing Dr. Kahveci for many years. He is absolutely the best. Highly recommend!

Worst experience I have ever had with a dentist. The cleanings were fine, however if you need anything beyond the basics you should go to someone else. I had one of my most painful experiences EVER during one of the procedures I had there. My experience left me terrified of the dentist. I used to be reluctant to go to the dentist (as many of us are) but I was never afraid. I was surprised to hear from my new dentist that dental procedures should not hurt. He said that if 5-6 shots of novacaine does not work then a dentist should not proceed, but that is exactly what Dr. K did. Also, I did feel pressured from the staff to buy toothbrushes and get my teeth whitened when mine are already very white to begin with. Also, Dr. K tried to have me replace my silver fillings with white fillings that were maybe 3 years old. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. I know that the location is convenient for those of us that work in the Financial District but the pain that I have felt through this experience makes me wish that I had gone to a far better Dentist. read more

My experience at Faneuil Hall Dental was absolutely wonderful! I was a first time patient and as most of the people are don't really like going to the dental office. However, I found this office very welcoming, clean and very up-to-date I really liked the TVs on the ceiling definitely helps you get distract while the doctor or hygienist performs the procedure. I got a cleaning and hygienist Victoria was very friendly, gentle on my gums and did an awesome job! Dr. K performed an exam and even know I will have to come back for some fillings I don't mind the at all. This is my dental office now! Everything from staff, to equipment and the office if GREAT! I would definitely recommend Faneuil Hall Dental to others, believe me you will love it there. read more

Find another dentist. Seriously. I am 24 and have always had reasonably good teeth and no discomfort, having had 4 cavities in my life. Dr. Kahveci performed unnecessary treatments on me. He even removed a previous filling in a molar, saying simply that it needed to be redone and not answering my questions about why it needed to be redone. He injured the tooth's nerve in the process -- the new filling actually pinched the nerve against my tooth -- leading to the worst tooth pain of my life, worse than migraines. I went back a few days later to see him, saying that something had to be wrong. He took a quick look, told me simply that my bite needed to be adjusted, and proceeded to file down the very same tooth with a drill. I have never experienced pain so intense. He then decided to give me a prescription for vicodin and a referral to another dentist ("should the pain continue"), as he was going on his summer vacation for 4 weeks. He bled my insurance dry, leading to out of pocket expenses of nearly $800. The receptionist told me that my insurance would cover all of the procedures, as they fell under "preventative and basic restorative." My insurance did cover them, but not over $1500 in a calendar year. So in the end, the insurance contributed $1500 and I paid $800 and in return I experienced 4 weeks of intolerable tooth nerve pain and had to get a root canal. My advice: AVOID AT ALL COSTS. There are lots of good dentists in Boston. Find someone else. read more
