I am very particular and extra sensitive when it comes to my teeth. He was so accommodating and genuinely listened to what I needed. He did such an amazing job on my root canal that I didn’t feel anything and I was super comfortable.
Great dentist, and all the staff were nice as well. Literally no wait time, the office is sparkling, and the care was professional. So glad to have a great dentist so close to home.

Great dentist and staff!!! I highly recommend Dr.E!
My hygienist was the best part of my visit. But the fact this practice does not bill and all payments are due up front really mad my visit frustrating and the fact they are closed Friday. Ashley the receptionist is snippy and did really care for her personality and missing nails.

I would not and have not returned.
He was very personable, knowledgeable, and kind. So was the dental hygienist and receptionist. I am coming back for a filling and wisdom teeth removal. They are very good at educating the patient on proper dental care.
Verified patient
From the reception at the front desk, to the dental hygienist and my interaction with Dr. Ego-Osuala, this was the best dentist experience one could hope for. Everyone was friendly and careful to explain their observations and what to expect throughout the visit. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a new dentist.
Verified patient
I did not have to wait a second for my appointment. Dr. Ego-Osuala was very courteous and professional and did my cleaning himself; a rare privilege these days.
Verified patient
My time with the doctor and his staff was great. I managed to get prompt feedback and reassurance as they thoroughly walked me through their plan of action. Needless to say, I will be back.
Dr. Ego is very personable and is super knowledgeable. The entire office has your best interest in mind and the wait time was less than 5 minutes. I got a cleaning and the hygienist is very thorough and detailed. This is officially my favorite dental office EVER!
Verified patient
Dr. Chinatu is an excellent dentist! He is very knowledgeable and really cares about the condition of his patient's teeth. He educates and encourages a his patients to adopt health dental habits. Most of all he has one of the cleanest dental offices I have ever seen!
Verified patient
Dr. Ego-Osuala has an unusual bedside manner. His assistant looked concerned when I told her I occasionally forgot to floss. She told me he was going to lecture me for a while on that... She was correct. While we was friendly, he spent almost 30 minutes talking to me about flossing when I was honest that I floss most of the time but not everyday. I have never had a cavity and my teeth and gums are very healthy which Dr. Ego-Osuala acknowledged. The lecture was way, way, way, too long and awkward. He also took breaks to go work on another client. My dental cleaning took over an hour because of this. I won't be going back. It was strange.
Verified patient
Everyone at this office is exceedingly nice and careful. Almost suspiciously nice.. like what did I do to deserve such sweet people? I don’t even floss regularly..
The Best Dentist I have ever had! I am normally not a fan of going to the dentist, but Dr. Ego-Osulala and his staff made things easy. I look forward to my next check up.
Verified patient
Nice Friendly Staff. Precalled my insurance before my arrival and was made aware of the options I had. Dr. Chinatu Ego-Osuala was super informative and patient. I will definitely be back and would recommend him to anyone .
Verified patient
Dr Osuala is wonderful very patient and gentle . On the other hand the young lady that was helping him was very blunt and not very warm. Her tone of voice and attitude was a huge problem for me .
Very extensive knowledge and I left the appointment very well informed and excited. Service was great and I look forward to my next appointment!
Verified patient
Best dentist ever!
Verified patient
Dr. Ego-Osuala was personable, knowledgeable and made recommendations to improve my dental health immediately and for the long term as well.
Verified patient
I had three fillings done at once. I opted out of dental anesthesia and barely felt any pain. Doctor and his staff were extremely nice and accommodating. I will be back again.
Verified patient
Great dentist!! Thorough and very nice!
Verified patient
Highly Recommended! - Made a somewhat random choice visiting this Dentist and was very pleased with my experience. Short wait time and the staff was very courteous. While Dr. Chinatu doesn't do crown placements yet he recommended me to someone who could. I decided to get a teeth cleaning and he was able to break down in simple terms the problems I've been having with my teeth and was highly professional. I definitely see myself returning, especially with it comes to areas of preventive care. You will not be disappointed with your experience here.
Verified patient
Dr. Ego was friendly, straightforward and efficient. He gave good advice that I had not heard before rather than the obvious (i.e. don't eat sweets, don't bite rocks, etc.) The supporting staff were also friendly and didn't seem miserable, which often seems to be the case in the medical field (which I work in myself...). I look forward to having him as my regular dentist.
Verified patient
This is my new forever dentist!
Verified patient
Dr. Ego-Osuala was extremely kind and put me at ease. The front desk staff and dental assistant were also great! I really appreciated the front desk staff checking my insurance and letting me know ahead of time how much my procedure would be. That may not seem like a big deal but I've had my fair share of surprises on my medical bills!
Receptionist and Doctor greeted me right away. The reception team called my insurance to verify I was set up in Maryland, due to a recent move. They were very patient and kind, giving me extra resources and advice as a new resident. The doctor had excellent communication skills and bedside manner and made sure I was not in any immediate pain or discomfort. Coming from someone who moves frequently, I have seen a LOT of great and horrible Dental Offices, and this was by far the best experience I have had. I will surely be a long time patient and refer Dr. Chinatu to anyone who asks for a great Dentist in the area.
Verified patient
Dr. Ego-Osuala was extremely kind, gentle, and efficient. I have very sensitive teeth and a bridge in the front of my mouth and felt very comfortable during my visit.
Verified patient
He was very nice and funny, The office is extremely clean and that's a huge plus for me, I will definitely make a follow up appointment
Let me say, dental visits are always something I do not look forward to. But Dr. E is amazing. His staff is knowledgeable, pleasant, and fun to be around. They made my wisdom tooth extraction painless and swift. I wish I met them prior to all my bad dental experiences.
Verified patient
He was really flexible and patiant with me...
I thought the appointment went well. I would say it's very apparent that the office is new and I think if I were them I would make sure all processes were working efficiently before bringing in patients. Most of the time I was there it was waiting on computers to work or missing tools to be located. That's really my only criticism. The dentist was great
Verified patient
Dr. Osuala was very pleasant and professional. I typically dread going to the Dentist, but I had a great experience at his office. The staff was very friendly, I didn't endure a lot of pain, and my mouth felt amazing afterwards. I highly recommend this Dentist!
Verified patient

Verified patient
It was a great experience, the doctor is really nice and gentle, I didn't feel anything during the procedure. He made me feel comfortable. I really recommend him as a dentist. And he is really fun person.
It is with great pleasure to write about my visit with Dr. Ego-Osuala. I have seen multiple dentists in the past but Dr. Ego-Osuala is hands down the best. He was very knowledgeable, attentive, professional and has a great bedside manner. My issues were addressed in a prompt & efficient manner. I am so glad that I have found my primary general dentist.
