Very friendly and helpful staff
More than 1 year agoKaitlin Z.Verified patient
Absolutely wonderful! I was welcomed by the front desk staff immediately and shortly after Dr. Silvestri introduced himself and wished me a belated Happy Birthday. I’ve never received this type of welcoming at any dentist office. I think he’s become my new dentist! I already booked a cleaning for later in the week. I think I sat in the waiting room for about 2 minutes before I was called back. Total procedure took about 15 minutes, I am very impressed! Highly recommend!

August 25, 2020Ashley Z.Verified patient
Today was my first day as a new patient and I was very pleased with their care. The lady at the front desk was delightful and polite. The dental hygienist was very personable, professional, and thorough with my cleaning. Dr. Silvestri was also very welcoming. I loved the one on one care as opposed to a family practice with a lot of commotion while undergoing teeth cleaning.
July 7, 2020Angelita S.Verified patient
I have been going to Dr. Silvestri's dental office since my childhood. I have always liked going there and never had a bad visit. I would recommend Dr. Silvestri and his staff to anyone who would like to have a good teeth cleaning and a positive, valued experience with their dentist.
June 1, 2020Michael Y.Verified patient
In the middle of a pandemic I selected this dentist office based on the five star reviews and availability to address a dental emergency. They have safety measures in place. Receptionist was cordial and clear in communication. Dental assistant Angie, was friendly and gentle with xrays. Dr. Silvestri has a great bedside manner. Empathetic, efficient, concise with treatment plan, execution and follow up. Overall the staff communicates well and patient interaction seems genuine. I have to return for follow up. I definitely recommend this office for dental procedures.
May 22, 2020Blanca S.Verified patient

extremely friendly and kind. I would highly recommend him!

Dr Silvestri and his staff are all very friendly...I was a new patient and needed a root canal done. Dr Silvestri called me the night of the procedure to make sure I was ok...I think that says a lot about him as a person. I have never had a doctor or dentist call to check up on me! I highly recommend him
June 6, 2019Sean O.Verified patient
Richard is extremely fast and gets all tooth procedures done rapidly. From root canal, crown, and bridge work, and fillings..
I wish I had used him years ago, but I stayed with an unnamed dentist for so long, I didn't know of Dr. Silvestre, but now I am completely sold, on Richard, he is an ace dentist AND a very interesting person who I now consider a friend.
