It is a med spa and dental office. Expect to be bombarded with advertisements for beauty treatments. And they pump loud music throughout the office

This was truly the best dental experience I’ve ever had. Dr. Kumar and Ms. Tatiana did an outstanding job with my dental work and took excellent care of me throughout the entire visit. They were professional, gentle, and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The procedure was completely painless, which I really appreciated.
Ms. Samaya at the front desk is incredibly friendly and welcoming. From the moment I arrived, she made me feel comfortable and at ease, setting the tone for a great visit.
I highly recommend Dr. Kumar and her amazing team to anyone in need of dental care. You’ll be in excellent hands!
January 12, 2026Kamal F.Verified patient
I had an amazing experience in DentalPolitan. Beautiful office with cute interior design. Samia met me on the reception and provided all necessary information and assistance. Dr Priyam Kumar and her assistant Mirella completed very fast and pain free treatment. I'm very satisfied by their work and definitely will come back again. Thank you!!!

The office was gorgeous ! The staff was very friendly and personable. They called before my appointment to help me with my insurance. The dentist explained things very well and gave good advice. The dentist assistant who did most of the work on my teeth her name started with a “T” was wonderful. She was very friendly and constantly checked ensure everything felt okay. She worked fast and her kindness helped the experience.The dentist did so as well.

I would highly recommend this office! Everyone was so nice, and my teeth looked and felt great afterwards. The office itself is modern and inviting. I really liked that they included a fluoride treatment at the end (I recommend the lime cola flavor ??).

November 11, 2025Maya P.Verified patient
The dentist and entire staff were extremely friendly and professional and welcoming, and very warm. I am petrified of going to the dentist. Walking through the doors give me anxiety instantly… She alleviated my concerns and her kindness and office decor made me forget where I was. I would highly recommend her.

She’s great

Be aware that when paying with a credit card, you are charged a an additional 3.5% processing fee which is absurd for a doctor's office.

I had a wonderful experience in Dr. Kumar's office! The office was very high tech, clean, and had a friendly and welcoming energy. Dr. Kumar and her assistants were very communicative before and during the entirety of my visit. I never felt like I was being upsold either, which has been the case in other offices. Highly recommend this office!

July 10, 2025Aaron C.Verified patient
I have never had such a pleasant dentist visit! They were clear about what to expect, what they could do to address my concerns, and did not cause me any unnecessary oral discomfort. They also made recommendations to me without trying to upsell me whatsoever, which I appreciated.

Doctor requires xrays for cleaning. I advised in advance that I would not be doing xrays, showed up, was seated in the chair, and then told that the doctor refused to see me unless I consented to xrays. I left.
But it is a beautiful office and the staff were very warm and kind. Such a shame it didn't work!

Yes, I would definitely return, and I found the dentist's treatment plan to be helpful and very sensitive to all the work I need done and providing options that I can afford.
April 3, 2024Kenneth P.Verified patient
Dr. Kumar was fantastic! She was very friendly and made sure to answer any questions that I had. Even when I wanted to stop myself from answering a question, she encouraged me to ask so she could clear up any concerns. She was also very thorough with reviewing my dental health- things to look out for and what to do regarding wisdom teeth before moving forward with the Invisalign I inquired about. She was great and I would highly recommend her.
February 14, 2024Gabriella D.Verified patient
Thought that this was an efficient and thorough appointment. Xrays were a bit tough but I always find them that way. I would recommend.
February 13, 2024Eric K.Verified patient
Excellent checkup and diagnosis of my dental issues, ?with a thorough explanation of how to remediate them. I highly recommend her.
November 16, 2023Walter P.Verified patient
Great dentist, I hadn't been to a dentist in years and had lots of calcified plaque, she cleaned it all out and wasn't judgemental at all. I look forward to going in frequently to keep my mouth in good shape
November 9, 2023Monica L.Verified patient
I had seen a dentist earlier in the year who had misdiagnosed me and then through the post pandemic malaise managed to forget about me. A specialist reviewing my chart for other issues raised some questions, which caused me to get a second opinion from Dr. Kumar. Agreeing with the specialist, Dr. Kumar went over my issue in detail with me, worked to expedite my dental work with an associated specialist, and explained the future plans in detail. I finally feel i am in the hands of a professional and have found my DC dentist.
