Whether helping a nervous child at their first cleaning or an adult facing a complicated dental procedure, Ana, a Dental Assistant, has an uncanny ability to make patients feel happy and empowered about their oral health.
Working alongside patients has been a passion of mine since very early on. To be a part of a patient's healthcare team, and to be able to connect personally has always given me a feeling of fulfillment. Those experiences are what have driven me to my path of dental assisting.
Friendly and helpful, Casey is a natural people person. As a Patient Treatment Coordinator, she loves the opportunity she has every day to get to know our patients and assist them in their treatment planning.

Along the way, I discovered that dentistry is a true art form. My experience over the last decade has focused on smile design andfull mouth esthetic reconstruction. My dental practice is one of the few certified as an officialDigital Smile Design centerin New England.
Clinical excellence is not achieved by chance, it is achieved by building and valuing patient trust. In my heart I know that there is no single set of rules to apply to all patients, as each person is unique in their needs, desires, and goals. Treatment should be tailor-made to each patient. No shortcuts. No excuses.
I strongly believe in following your passion from a place of excellence and generosity. My primary goal is to create a strong connection with my patients, to understand them better and to offer a customized experience that exceeds their expectations and enhances their lives.

Her passion is helping others. She enjoys building strong connections with her patients as well as transforming their lives.
The most enjoyable part of being a Dental Hygienist for Carol is seeing her patients appreciating the time she spends on educating, informing, and getting to know them. Helping patients who are actually happy to be at the dentist is truly gratifying for her.

I strongly recommend it! I went because I had an issue with my Invisalign retainer and Dr. Cardenas and Dr. Casas fixed it quickly. In addition, the front desk staff was really pleasant.

Dr. Cardenas is a fantastic dentist. For the past few years I have had some restorative work done, and the results have been excellent. I doubt that with most dentists I would've had such an aesthetically pleasing outcome. Dr. C. does beautiful work, is very empathic (which is essential for me), listens extremely well and plans upcoming dental work perfectly and diligently together with the patient. She's very efficient and at the same time very gentle, kind and pleasant (she also has a great sense of humor, which is by no means always the case with medical or dental professionals, but which I consider important!). I trust her completely that she recommends what is the absolute best and what is truly necessary. The office/practice staff is also very professional, friendly, helpful, and reliable without exceptions. Communication is smooth with both the staff and Dr. C. herself (whether it's over the phone, via text message or email). Dr. C. has also created a very soothing and aesthetically pleasing office atmosphere - a serene and peaceful ambiance -, which has a big impact on the patients' well-being - whether they are still waiting or while they are being treated. I highly recommend Dr. Cardenas' practice.

Dr. Cardenas and her entire staff are an absolute joy! From the moment you walk into the office everyone at the front desk is so kind and knowledgable. The clinic staff is also so kind and so great at what they do! I can't imagine going to any other dental office after having been treated there!

After many years with my dentist (who was 40 mins away), I decided it was finally time to find someone who was closer to me out of convenience. Dr. Cardenas was someone respected in the community and when I called they were able to get me in pretty quickly! The office is pristine and it feels like you are in a spa - many amenities offered to make the experience as pleasant and comfortable as possible. I was so relaxed during my most recent visit that I almost fell asleep! Dr. Cardenas and her team are professional, knowledgeable, thorough and kind. I am so glad I made the switch and I plan on being her patient for a long time to come!

Just got home from my cleaning. I have never been offered a pillow, a blanket, and headphones for a dental appointment! This place is the best! Nobody likes going to the dentist and I am included in that group. Maria Cardenas and her staff are truly amazing and make you feel very, very comfortable. They take their time with you, and they explain everything to you. I couldn't be more happy after a dentist visit. Don't be afraid, go ahead and try them. You will not regret it. I promise!

We recently moved to the area. We decided to try Dr Cardenas practice for our dental needs. We could not be happier. The staff are very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and they really want your dental experience there to be as pleasant and comfortable as possible. Dr Cardenas is highly skilled and thoroughly explains everything she is doing and recommending for your dental health. She listens to your concerns and answers every question completely. You can tell she really does care about her patients. Her office is spotless and equipped with all of the state of the art equipment. If you need any dental work done, you should make an appointment and go see Dr Cardenas and her excellent team. I highly recommend them. UPDATE: I still am impressed by how well you feel, and are taken care of at Dr Cardenas office. The place is like an upscale spa and you feel pampered by everyone there. I have referred at least 5 other patients to her and every one of them feels the same way I do about the care you receive there. Every time you walk in the door you are greeted by genuine smiles from all of the staff. You can tell they all love what they do and they genuinely care about you and your dental health. I used to hate going to the dentist but not any more. I actually look forward to it. Dr Cardenas skill and care is second to none. Make an appointment and you will agree.

I never thought I'd be excited about going to the dentist, but Dr. Cardenas and her staff changed my mind! From the warm welcome I received when I arrived to the gentle treatment and professionalism during my visit. The space is beautiful, calming and so zen! You actually forget your at the dentist and feel like you're at a Spa. Truly looking forward to my next visit! Bravo to Dr. Cardenas and her whole staff, they are the best!!

I highly recommend Dr Maria Cardenas! A beautiful office space, very welcoming, and spa-like , Dr. Cardenas is very talented and very focused on patient experience. I had veneers done on six front teeth and the detail and care taken in this process was excellent. I was comfortable throughout the process and the results were wonderful! I could not have been more pleased. Everyone in the office was equally interested in patient experience. I have also changed dentists for all of my dental care to be done at Dr Cardenas' office!

I highly recommend Maria Cardenas. She listened to every concern I had about my teeth and helped me get my dream smile in a month. She is so thorough and presented me a slideshow to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted and I definitely did!

(Translated by Google) It has taken me many years to find a professional of the level of Dr. Cardenas, it is the first time that a dentist transmits so much positivity, confidence and first class solutions, with the most advanced technology, and with improvements that only Dr. Cardenas is able to achieve. As soon as you enter the clinic you can be infected by the kindness of all the people who work there, they make you feel how important your experience as a patient is. I can certainly recommend the services of this clinic. (Original) He tardado muchos anos en encontrar un profesional del nivel de la Dr.Cardenas, es la primera vez que un dentista me transmite tanta positividad, confianza y soluciones de primera clase, con la tecnologia mas avanzada, y con mejoras que solo la Dr.Cardenas es capaz de conseguir. Nada mas entrar en la clinica puedes contagiarte de la amabilidad por parte de todas las personas que trabajan alli, te hacen sentir lo importante que es tu experiencia como paciente. Sin duda puedo recomendar los servicios de esta clinica.

My experience with Dr. Cardenas was more than perfect. The minute you walk into her office, you feel at ease, even though you are at the dentist. From the beautiful decor, to the friendly and helpful staff, you immediately see the attention to detail that is important to this practice. In terms of treatment, Dr. Cardenas and her staff go above and beyond to make sure you feel heard and you understand the reasoning behind the proposed treatment plan. It can be challenging to chose between complex treatment plans, but Dr. Cardenas takes the time to explain everything in detail so you can make informed decisions about your care. She truly embodies a team approach. Not only does her caring personality immediate shine, but her meticulousness in providing the best care is obvious. Dr. Cardenas ensures perfection at every step. She takes professional clinical photos that influence the ongoing treatment, she has an in house master ceramist to ensure natural and esthetic results, and the most up to date equipment that will make you forget you are at the dentist. For anyone considering dental treatment, I cannot recommend Dr. Cardenas more highly. You will not be disappointed.

I'm so incredibly grateful for Dr. Cardenas. I came to her with a lot of work needing to be done. Since a young age I was constantly in and out of dentist offices, with a couple bad experiences. Because of this, I avoided the dentist for a while. Dr. Cardenas is kind, caring, non-judgmental and so extremely talented. Her work is pristine. I have absolutely no anxiety walking into my appointments now. I'm motivated and excited to continue my journey with her!
