    She took me in for an emergency appointment. Was the best experience at a dentist that I've had since I was a teenager.

    I can't stress my dental anxiety enough because it isn't possible. I have to take anxiety…read moremedication to even try to think of going but today I went to Smiles By Rosie and was completely in awe of the wonderful experience I was fortunate to have. The staff is absolutely amazing. They're all very sweet and understanding of your concerns. Everyone will go out of their way to calmly explain to you everything, from the procedures to even helping ease your anxiety and concerns. I only had a cleaning to day (and a very deep one as I hadn't been to the dentist in a long time) and I can confidently say that, even though it was a rough cleaning, I enjoyed it! It sounds weird but it's true! The hot rocks, lavender sheet, and warm pillow really helped comfort me and the music in the background was very relaxing. I really enjoyed my experience here and I never thought I could ever say that about a dentist's office. There is a long waiting list but if you're perseverant and positive, you can get in ahead of schedule! My appointment was supposed to be a year from now but I saw the email they usually send when there's an open spot and quickly replied to their message with my information, which I had typed down on a note in my phone so I could copy paste it quickly on their email message. If you don't do that, odds are someone else will get the appointment. The last time I tried, the appointment was filled within two minutes of having received the email. It's safe to say this office is a popular spot. All in all, amazing place, amazing staff, amazing service! Can't recommend them enough!

    It did take a while for their wait list to open up enough that I could get in, but once I did, I'm…read morehappy to have found my new dentistry after moving to Somerville! Dr. Rosie and all of her team are kind, friendly and will make sure you feel as comfortable as possible, in a usually uncomfortable experience. Dr. Rosie is very thorough and so far I have no complaints, luckily I don't have any kind of dental complications so I'm not sure how getting an appointment might be like if you had some kind of emergency, but I was able to get a couple of fillings done within a week of my initial cleaning appointment when we found the cavities. Heated neck pillow during the exam, and a warm towel to wipe your face after, it's the little things but hey, I'll take them over not having them!

    I came in as a new patient expecting the same care everyone should receive x-rays and a cleaning…read more Instead, I was told I needed a "prior authorization" before they would clean my teeth. I knew that wasn't true, and I confirmed with my insurance (DentaQuest) that no authorization was required. I filed a grievance and documented everything in case this office tries to bill for a cleaning they never did. No patient should ever be treated differently because of their insurance or the color of their skin. I feel I was treated this way because I have MassHealth/Medicaid, a low-subsidy insurance plan, and because I am a Black woman as if I was ignorant and wouldn't know better. I remained respectful and polite, but I will not return. If you are a person of color and have MassHealth, Medicaid, DentaQuest, any type of state or government insurance, please be cautious. In my experience, this office especially Dr lang will play in your face, deny you proper care, will bill you for services you never received. Patients deserve honesty and equal treatment, no matter their background or insurance.

    PRO - Had two wisdom teeth removed and it went straight forward. To my surprise had minor swelling…read more Customer service given from the nurses / dental assistants were good. Actual dentist(s) are Asian and they don't speak much. Majority of the staff not including the actual dentist(s) are either Spanish or Brazilian. CON - Asian male customer service who works at the front desk could be a little more friendlier. Take his time to explain and don't speak sooo fast. I under that having to re-explain yourself several times because of language barrier can be FRUSTRATING but again your job is based on offering a good quality CUSTOMER SERVICE. I give them a 5 Star and would actually return again. Even if the dentist don't speak to me. Workmanship isn't based on how well you can speak!

    I know some people shy away from chains but I have to say that this office has consummate…read moreprofessionals that have kept me coming back for years. Dr. Navy has the calm of a Buddhist monk, I swear. He welcomes all of my questions (answered most patiently) and has the most calming manner of any dentist I've encountered. His voice could be on a zen app, reading bedtime stories, I swear! I got my first cavity ever in my early 40s and was freaked out about novocaine and the process of drilling & filling. He put my fears at ease and handled my transformation from a 40-something to a 3yo in his chair without blinking an eye. Haley is my hygienist and will be for as long as she works in the field. I swear, I'll follow her wherever she goes, she's amazing and down-to-earth, knows all my sensitive spots (thanks gum recession), and takes care to be so gentle but still thorough. Visits for cleaning feel like visiting an old friend! Right now, I'm doing Invisalign treatment and Jose (orthodontic assistant) is hilarious and Dr. McQuattie (orthodontist) is great! I've seen Dr. Goldberg (sidebar consult about above-mentioned gum recession) and he was a cool guy, kept it real - which actually helped me make the decision to do Invisalign (I grind my teeth and was worsening recession). This office is 5 stars. (Side note: my husband has all his dental care here, too, and supports this review! Also gives a shout out to Dr. Hraiz!)

    My experience was traumatic. I initially went to have a tooth looked at. As it had been a while…read moresince i had seen a dentist, I was told that a full evaluation and cleaning was necessary first. The office was clean and the receptionists were courteous and there was very little wait time. The first hygienist I saw was thorough. I was then told that i would be seeing a different hygienist the next time. It was bad but I was told it was necessary. Each successive cleaning was worse than the last. It became so brutal it felt personal. I was scolded for not using an electric toothbrush. When i purchased one, I was told i didn't buy the right brand. Then i wasn't using the correct type of floss. After much bleeding and pain, we had to stop. During my discussion I was basically told that I should not return because it would reflect poorly on the office if I did. Since that visit i have had constant, severe pain in several of my teeth. Even one they initially repaired. I can't chew anything on one side of my mouth and everything I eat, or drink has to be room temperature. While my teeth may not have been in perfect condition before, I had no pain in any of them prior to these visits. I sought another dentist after the third trip. When i sat in his chair he asked if I was okay as I was so scared, I was noticeably trembling.
