2nd review: This team is amazing. I had Hannah as my hygienist this time and she was perfect. Just perfect. Great manner, cleaned deeply and completely. I came out feeling like a king. Meeting with Chris is always a pleasure. I'll keep coming back. Thank you, guys!! 1st review: I just moved back to the area. I'm living in the District, but I come out here for a reason to visit this particular dentist. There are unfortunately some scammers in this profession, and I had a bad experience with a DC. Chris Spagna is the best dentist I have ever worked with. Terrific approach, explains everything, really knowledgeable and great technique. Chris is a consummate professional! If you're considering a dentist, don't look any further.

Dr Spagna and Dr Kunaish are the best dentists in the area, without question. I highly recommend this practice to anyone in the DC/NoVA region in search of a dentist! Friendly, efficient staff, and one of the best vantage points looking west to keep you distracted while in the chair. Your search for a good dentist that takes most insurance is over!

This is only based on my first appointment, however, Dr. Spagna and his staff were professional, thorough and friendly. They explained each step in the process of my cleaning and x rays. The office was clean and welcoming. Thanks! I'll be back!
