I am sixty-one years old and I've had three dentists in my adult life. All have been good one has been excellent. I have only changed dentist because of changing addresses. Oliva Dentistry, is one of those rare finds that I will not change because of where I live. I have moved twice in the last twenty four years, from Dorchester to Quincy and then to Scituate, and have stayed with Dr. Oliva because he so thorough the best. I am a fierce grinder yet have all my own teeth thanks to Dr. Oliva. His enthusiasm is contagious when it comes to good home dental care and never preached or imposed. The attention he shows and real language explanations he gives during treatment about your teeth is a credit to his profession. The first crown I got wth him I would say "Yeah that feels good..its good" and he would have me bite down on the carbon strip again and shape the crown a little more and to my supries it fit a little better. He is a dental perfectionist without the egoism most perfectionist are debilitated with. Tina, his office professional and X-ray tech is just as wonderful, warm and caring as Dr Oliva. She is a great compliment to an outstanding dentist. No kidding it takes me 45 minutes to an hour to go to him depending on traffic and worth every minute. He'll have to quit or I'll have to die, but I'm staying with Dr. Oliva for the whole ride. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Oliva's for over two decades and cannot recommend him more highly! Dr. Oliva is knowledgeable and compassionate about his work and cares deeply for both your dental health as well as you as a person. I have never had a serious dental issue and I attribute this to Dr. Oliva's teaching of proper dental hygiene as well as his preventative care and thoroughness of his examinations and cleanings. I've moved several times to various parts of greater Boston as well as the suburbs and never once considered finding another dentist as the trust and faith I put in Dr. Oliva's care cannot be dismissed for mere "convenience." If you are in Eastern Massachusetts and are searching for a dentist, you have found one. read more

Could you ever imagine smiling or laughing with your mouth closed? Try it yourself for just one day, and you will realize just how difficult it is. I had many years of practice and had become quite an expert at it. For various reasons, my teeth were extremely discolored. I thought I would have to live with this problem for the rest of my life. That was until I was referred to Dr. Oliva, who offered me a choice. He reviewed his plans with me and we moved forward to change my smile forever. The many hours of hard work and dedication he devoted to me were well worth the final result. Just as he had promised, I now have a smile I can be proud of. Many thanks to you, Dr. Oliva. read more

I thought they must be exaggerating... my daughter and her family heaped so much praise on Dr. Oliva. But recently, when I mentioned I was about to schedule some dental procedures elsewhere that I was told were necessary, my daughter prevailed on me to see Dr. Oliva. SO glad I did! He found alternatives to each procedure I thought necessary, saving me much money and leaving me very grateful. Even on a first visit, you easily sense his integrity and sincerity, and that he has the highest standards for his practice of dentistry. Wish I had found him decades ago. Also, the office is attractive and well managed... and Tina is a joy! read more

I made the switch to Dr. Oliva's office after he started caring for other members of my family. Dr. Oliva and Tina are a great team, they make every aspect of the dentistry process easy and pain free, from making appointments, dealing with insurance, and of course the great care of my teeth and gums. I have since moved an hour away, but making the trip to Dr. Oliva is definitely worth the time. My siblings, parents and I have all had different issues and each one is cared for on a personal level and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend this office to anyone needing a truly caring dentist and staff. read more

Dr. Oliva has been my dentist for my entire adult life, over 35 years! I have lived in MA, CA and OH and always flew home for my appointments, and I go to the dentist every 4 months. His gentle manner and kind spirit make my visits much more bearable. He should give "patient care" classes to other dentists. For anyone who avoids the dentist because of negative experiences in the past or horror stories of friends, go to Dr. O. Care of our teeth is so vital to our overall health. Don't hesitate any longer! His wonderful assistant Tina will get you in the door. read more

I used to go to the dentist only when I had problems. Then, when we moved to Milton, I had a dental problem and tried Dr. Oliva. I liked his care, his advice, his thoroughness. He has been our family dentist for almost 30 years now. Anthony recommended some major work as my wife and I grew older, then put us on a maintenance plan which has kept us trouble free. It's the best thing we could have done. I don' t worry about my teeth any more. I highly recommend Dr. Oliva. I know you will feel the same way about him too. read more

I have been a patient of Doctor Oliva for over 25 years and have never once doubted his decision making regarding my dental health. He always involves me in the decision making and explains everything thoroughly before proceeding. Also the friendly and courteous manner that he and Tina make the office visits that much easier. They always ask how I am feeling and ask about my family members. I would recommend Dr. Oliva to anyone in need of dental work. Sincerely Bob Schilling read more

Dr. Oliva is a perfectionist. He was recommended by my dentist who was on vacation. He made time for me and worked on creating temporary crowns. He made sure they were perfect. He is also very personable and easy to talk to. His assistant Tina read my forms thoroughly and called me to make sure I had directions to the office and then called the next day to make sure I was doing okay. You really are taken care of and the experience is as good as it gets! JT read more

Dr. Oliva is the most thorough and thoughtful Dentist I've ever been to! He is extremely intelligent, and explains everything in full detail before you agree to any procedure he recommends. He will not proceed until you are fully satisfied, and makes sure you are as comfortable as you can be during the entire experience. He genuinely cares about your oral health care. I honestly can't say I've been to a better dentist. Dr. Oliva is the best of the best. read more

Dr. Oliva's expertise as a dentist is equally matched by his compassionate "chair side" manner. I have benefited from this combination for over 20 years and attribute the good condition of my oral health to the excellent care and treatment received as his patient. Thankfully I never have to worry about finding a good dentist as I believe Dr. Anthony Oliva to be one of the best. Thank you Dr.Oliva and staff ! read more

I've been going to Dr. Oliva for nearly 15 years. It's always a great experience, from booking appointments to whatever procedure I'm there for. Most of all, I greatly respect Dr. Oliva's opinion and trust that he has what's in my best interest in mind. Certainly can't recommend this practice enough. Even after I moved, I travel 40+ minutes for my appointments because I won't settle for anyone else. read more

Dr. O is by far the best dentist I have been to. My whole immediate family made the switch after much success for my parents and I. I have TMJ and Dr. O helped me by providing a cost efficient but effective plan of action. Tina is extremely friendly and kind. She makes X-rays, something I never liked, quick and painless. I tell all my friends and family to make the switch! read more
