My scheduled appointments are always on time, and the staff is cheerful and professional. I love having my teeth cleaned and examined here. When I've had work done, such as a crown or filling, it's always with the upmost care. I highly recommend Pearl Dental Center in Pepperell.

After clearing explaining that my husband's implants needed work and waiting 5 weeks for an appointment, then they told us they DON'T WORK WITH IMPLANTS. SO THIS WAS NOT JUST A HUGE WASTE OF TIME FOR US IT WAS SO THEY COULD FINANCIALLY BENEFIT FROM DUPING US. And your response is even misleading. DON'T GO TO THIS TERRIBLE LIAR OF A DENTIST!!!

I had seen Dr. Pathak when I was experiencing sensitivity with one of my teeth. Dr. Pathak is very thorough and skilled with her approach to treating the issue. She was very patient and put in efforts to explain why I was experiencing the sensitivity. Her office staff is very friendly and they always greet you with a warm friendly smile. I am very pleased with Pearl Dental Center and would highly recommend seeing Dr. Pathak and her staff.

A nice dental practice with kind and transparent providers. However, I had some trouble understanding Dr. Aparna sue to her accent. She did get the job done quite well though.

Great office! CoVid compliant, and great dental care for any patient. I went in for a normal checkup as well as a few minor dental procedures and it was fantastic! Nurses and doctors were friendly and super gentle. Highly recommend coming here for any oral/dental work.

We in Pepperell are incredibly lucky to have Dr. Aparna and her staff at Pearl Dental in town. During both of my visit I have been greeted by a very friendly receptionist that has put me at ease from the jump. The dental hygienists have been professional and knowledgeable about what is going on. But the best part of the visit by far has been Dr. Aparna. She is a warm and friendly dentist who puts her patience at ease by describing what she is about to do, and takes patient comfort into account with everything that she does. She is so good that I am writing this review after having just had a cavity filled because of how comfortable her and her staff have made me feel. I cannot recommend her business highly enough.

Front counter staff not helpful. Asked them twice to fax records to new dentist two months later my dentist still doesn't have records. Incompetent

Went in for regular cleaning, Dr. Pathak conducted thorough exam and spent time elaborating the condition of my teeth. She also recommended a few precautionary measures. Her staff was also very pleasant.
