“I had an unusual situation!
I broke my front veneer and was in sheer panic mode knowing I had a busy schedule ahead and couldn’t look like a gargoyle in the midst of it all!!
My original dentist had no sensitivity to see me anytime sooner than two weeks from the time of my request for an appointment so I had to take CONTROL!!
After surfing, the web a few moments I came upon Dr. Sotelo
He was available the next day at
2 o’clock and he had at the least 230 positive reviews vastly more than anyone else in my search !
I didn’t have a lot of time to research
so I took a chance and selected him based on those points!
I was extremely satisfied with my decision !
The fact that Dr. Sotelo’s Office factors in emergency visits demonstrates a huge display good business acumen, heart and wisdom as No one can predict any untimely emergency.
I thank Dr. Sotelo again and highly recommend his services!!!”

You just couldn't ask for a kinder more professional experience at a dentist office than the one you will receive with Dr Sotelo and his team.

The amazing reviews online live up to the hype.

September 10, 2024Blake F.Verified patient
I have been avoiding the dentist for years due to fear. Finally went in for my first visit and I couldn’t have picked a better place! All staff (assistants and front desk) were so friendly and welcoming. Dr. Sotelo and his assistant (I forget her name) was kind, gentle, reassuring, and took their time to explain everything. I was really overwhelmed but I am more comfortable going back now. Thank you doctor and team!

I had an excellent new patient appointment at Frankford Dental! The staff was very friendly and accommodating and the doctor was thorough and knowledgeable. He made sure I had a full understanding of everything and that he was sure to answer any questions O may have had. I'm looking forward to my next appointment with them and would definitely recommend this office.

August 16, 2023Gianni J.Verified patient
After putting off going to the dentist for several years, Dr. Sotelo and the staff at Frankford Dental made me feel totally calm and comfortable on my first visit. The office was clean, the appointments were on schedule, and Dr. Sotelo worked with me to prioritize and plan for further dental care without pushing a bunch of additional procedures right away. The hygienist who did my cleaning was gentle, thorough and kind. I will definitely be visiting this practice again.
