Dr. Farzam Tamami, DDS - General dentist in Potomac, MD

I have always wanted to be an artist. Unfortunately, ceaseless skepticism from my parents convinced me otherwise. Yet, I have discovered an alternative means to express this artistic urge within myself- Dentistry.

In order to justify this absurd logic, I will start from the beginning. I was born into an affluent Persian family, appreciative of various fine arts. Encouraged by my parents, I learned to play the piano. Obsessively, I practiced until my fingers became strong and my hands submitted to my total control. By age fourteen, I was mastering pieces by Chopin, Bach, and my personal favorite, Clayderman. Later on, when my family moved to Austria, the European influence increased and my appreciation and admiration for these brilliant composers intensified. While I mastered other diversions, such as table tennis and swimming, my fascination stood fast for musical art. However, the more I conformed to the influence of these great pianists, the more I realized that my destiny was not to become one of them.

Finally, my family moved to the United States where my interests turned towards science. I delved into biology and chemistry. Naturally, the more I understood the mechanisms of science and human physiology the more my interest increased for sports, particularly tennis. Success moved in swiftly; by the time I entered college I ranked number one for my school in tennis. Eventually, tennis stardom led to vanity. And as I spent countless hours studying my gorgeous smile I discovered an interest for the mouth. The mouth is curious, as it is definitely a reflection of the soul within. Its form and physique mirror the condition of the individual.

Then I was awakened. I realized that these interests of biology, chemistry and art unite in dentistry. A dentist has the power to manipulate the very tunnel to the human heart. To create symmetry, perfection and clarity in the mouth is to impart a divine grace and natural beauty to the individual. And since I cannot be an artist, as I stated earlier, I will disguise myself as a dentist and work diligently to redefine aesthetics as I reshape the most commonly viewed masterpiece - the human smile.

I was very much impressed by the services provided by the hygienist, Ging and Dr. Farzam's staff from the first day of my visit. The staff is very polite and professional. Also, Dr. Farzam came to check discuss the results of the examination in detail and outlined the dental care for some areas that need to be careful with cleaning. I very much appreciate that Dr. Farzam and his staff are caring and work to perform their dental services with little to no pain. I feel extremely confident in the dental services provided by the hygienist, Ging and will do my part to be a good patient.

I love this place. My first time with botox, and Dr. Farzam did an amazing job. Staffs were very friendly and accommodating. The doctor thoroughly explained the procedure, and I felt very comfortable. Also, the dental hygienist (Ging) was amazing. She is the best! Very professional, polite, gentle, and had a lot of experience. Best cleaning ever! They made me comfortable and relaxed, which was a first time for me in the dental office. Definitely and Highly recommended!!! I love all my results and plan to return!!!. Thank you for your amazing service.

Dr.Farzam is the best. Took me in as his patient faster than I could think. I only walked in for advice and help with the little time I had so I can set up a appointment for another day. Surprisingly he took me in with urgency. Appointment was short and professionally done with an excellent team lead by a great Doctor. Very appreciative for Dr. Farzam and his team. Everyone just know your in great hands with this Doctor

Just finished a remarkably positive dental experience at Dr. Farzami Tamami's office. I am an especially nervous dental patient, but he and his staff made my root canal treatment easy, gentle, and painless. I am happy to have found a local practice that is so full service. They do general dentistry, endodontics, and they have the option of nitrous oxide gas which is super helpful for me. Dr. Tamami and his staff are friendly, professional, and responsive. When I first called them, I had a painful dental problem and they worked me in very quickly. He also did a great job with my kids' regular cleanings. I highly recommend this terrific dentist and his office.

You know how hard it is to find just the right dentist when you move to a new town and you loved your previous dentist? Well, I do! I struck the jackpot when I found Dr. Tamami. I just recenlty had at lot of dental work which included 4 crowns, and what can I say - they are perfect! The office is beautiful, with windows that are open (weather permittting), and the staff is very professional and really kind. Thanks for everything Dr. Tamami and staff, see ya soon!

Would not recommend! I got a second opinion on the crown this dentist did on me and my new dentist said the material is not high end metal that he billed me for and my insurance ( so I was billed for something expensive and he put in cheap material for my crown). When I had a follow up on the crown and asked about materials and if he put it in right he got so angry and told me I need to take care of my hygiene and stormed out of the room, also it was super hard getting my records from him, his office wouldnt give me my full HIPA record. I'm on my way to getting another expert opinion on this... however the last dentist I went to also said I paid WAYY too much for this cheap material crown. I paid around $1000 after my insurance also paid about that much too. My dentist told me the standard he put in is about $600 (for insurance) and if I went somewhere else it would have been fully covered by insurance. I would not recommend going here with an emergency tooth crack, because you'll be ripped off!!! He does INSURANCE FRAUD - Stay away!!!

I had a great experience here! My family comes here and today was my first visit and I was late because I went to the wrong place. If you are a new patient they are the White House next to the office building. NOT THE OFFICE BUILDING! Front staff are so kind and efficient and personable and same with the rest of the office! They all have such great personalities and fun to be around! They also have a German Shepard pup named sawyer and he is so sweet and well behaved! I haven't gone to a dentist in YEARS and in the past I've hated going but not anymore! If you're looking for a new dentist, this office is the ONE!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I'm not the type to leave review but I was so blown away with how great this place is! I'm looking forward to my next visit! -Nour

I've been a patient at Dr. Tamami's practice for many years now, and I've never had to dread my dental visits. Dr. Tamami and his staff are friendly and helpful, and they make an effort to know their patients personally even if you only see them twice a year. On my most recent visit, Dr. Tamami recommended some natural products for tooth whitening, knowing that I have a bit of gum recession that peroxide might aggravate. I appreciated the individualized recommendation, as well as the doctor's knowledge of holistic alternatives. He also did couple Crowns which feel amazing .. He is the best

I've been coming here for years for cleanings. My last visit I had to get a wisdom tooth extracted. Dr tamami and his staff were so reassuring throughout the process and it was so quick and painless. He even called the next day to follow up to make sure i was feeling alright. Highly recommend. Friendly & knowledgable staff.

I had the best experience with Farzam and his staff. I will recommend this dental facility to all my friends and family. I needed two crowns and a root canal. Farzam saved me the time and money for the root canal that wasn't needed. I had three other quotes and they were able to beat all the other quotes. Also my temp crown broke and Farzam was able to see me in a short notice to re temp the crown till the actual crown came in. I am really happy that I found Farzam. Customer service is top notch. Thanks guys and I will see you soon

My first time visiting Dr. Tamami, and I couldn't be happier with the visit. I have had my share of bad experiences with dentists and, as a result, I hate....HATE going to the dentist. Dr. Tamami walked me through everything he was gonna do, completely eased my concerns, and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. His office is state of the art, and his entire staff is as pleasant, courteous, and helpful as can be. This is definitely next level dentistry, in my opinion.

Absolutely the best dentist I've encountered in my adult life! I had the pleasure of being referred by a friend who is very selective about healthcare providers, so I knew I could trust her recommendation. And Dr. Tamami 100% lived up to my expectations. Not only has all the work he's done been great, he's also a really nice guy and talks to and gets to know his patients. 10/10 definitely would recommend!
