The Gentle Dental Stoughton office is great! I love going there. I go there every 6 months for my cleaning, check up and x-rays. Very professional staff. And I love my hygienist Shannon. She is the sweetest and gentlest person. She has a great sense of humor while she's examining and cleaning your teeth. I feel so comfortable and at ease that I can relax and close my eyes while she's at work on my teeth. I would highly recommend going to this Gentle Dental location.

Do not go here. I was told I have an overbite (I don't) and needed Invisalign because otherwise a tooth would break, 4 crowns and root canals. I switched dentists and none of that was true. The crown i got last year probably wasn't even needed I just wish I switched sooner. I also have to have a filling that was done in December fixed not even a year later because they did a horrible job. They billed my insurance for two exams even though I only had one this year so I had to pay out of pocket at my new dentist. They are very nice but just want to charge you as much as possible for things you do not need. At least the one dentist I went to there does. Do not go to Dr.Ma

I have been going there for years. I love these people, they are so professional. When I'm in the exam room with the team, each and everyone of them makes me feel so at ease and comfortable. The only downside I wish they take Masshealth Dental plan so my children would continue to go there. They still get from me and highly recommended

I have to give this location a 10/10. They were able to repair a bad tooth that I thought I would have needed removed. All of the staff are polite, and I have to say that the dentists truly are gentle which means a lot as I am someone who dislikes dental work. I highly recommend them.

I chose this location because of its high rating and I made the right choice. People are nice and friendly here. The hygienist who cleaned my teeth was very professional. Cassy, not sure I spell the name correctly front desk, was very helpful and patiently answered my questions and concerns. And patiently explained all the expenses I need to pay after insurance. I would recommend this clinic to my friends and relatives.

This morning I had my teeth examined and cleaned by Tricia. She is amazing and completely professional. She knows what she is doing and does a great job. She should be valued by management and recognized for her hard work.
