It's tough finding a place with good dentist and hygienists but this place is great! They do a great job, are really nice, and don't make you feel guilty. They're also super helpful in giving context for dental issues and how other health issues can impact your teeth.

I hadn't been to a dentist in 35 years but I finally had to go and I am glad I found Newbury Dental and Dr. Askari. Dr. Askari and the whole staff are knowledgeable and very friendly and put you at ease. Everyone made the experience a pleasant one -- I know, it's hard to believe that going to the dentist was a pleasant experience especially after not going for so long, but it was. I also like the location -- not too far from my house. I highly recommend Newbury Dental.
