I started there because it took my insurance and was very close to where I worked at the time. I ended up leaving my previous job about two weeks after my first appointment with her. My experience with Dr. Vasilakis and the Dental Hygienists was so positive that I have chosen to stay a patient even though the office is no longer in a convenient place for me. They doctors and hygienists that work there are very skilled, professional, and make it clear that they care about the me and my teeth. read less

She uses the newest technology and equipment but still keeps her services affordable. I'd recommend the office for people at any age and with any kind of dental need. read less

They do everything they can to make you feel comfortable either during the process or about future work that you may be thinking about. And, last but not least, the super duper hi tech equipment is very cool!! I never, ever thought I'd say this, but going to the dentist is now fun... (crazy huh?). read less

I soon as I finish with my invisalign next year, I plan to have Dr Maria whiten my teeth. Highly recommend. read less

On top of being an awesome staff they are very thorough in following up issues, have top of the line technology. From the little things to the medical elements.
In the little things for example you have the fact that they have a texting and email system to remind you if you want to. They have a Keurig coffee maker while you wait, and the dentist chair has an option for a massage, which is amazing!!!!!!
On the medical side they have also top of the line technology, and are all very professional and knowledgable. Not only that, they keep you in the loop as to what is going on with your own health. I've been o other dentists that don't tell you but the minimum because they have so many patients.
They don't only care to treat problems with your oral health, they care to prevent problems. To give you an example: The other day after looking at an initial x-ray (which is digitalized, not printed) they took this laser pen that checks on the thickness of my enamel (I had never seen a dentist use this before). It turns out that one of my teeth seemed somewhat weak, but not quite damaged. So, they suggested that my tooth might be at risk, but that it was easy to fix changing some practices. They suggested as a preventive measure to change toothpaste, and proposed to check on it again next time. It turns out my tooth was fine the next time I came in.
So, top of the line technology allowed for prevention, their professional standards allowed them to follow up, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. The whole time I was enjoying it so much, before I even got there I got a text reminder, when I got there I got a little Keurig coffee, when they were treating me I got a massage from the chair, and when I left they made sure I had my next appointment ready, and said good bye to me with a big smile!!!! read less

Dr. Maria was the one who finally caught this issue and referred me to a periodontist to have it taken care of. I continued to see Betty and Dr. Maria for my cleanings for years afterwards. I can't speak highly enough of Betty - she was so very considerate of my sensitivity. The last cleaning I had was painless - this was the first time in 5 years! I would highly recommend this practice. On a practical note, parking is pretty easy, for a city dentist - and I really appreciated that they have early morning and evening appointments - you don't have to rush from or miss work. read less

I have never ever had a less than highly satisfying experience. I get so excited to come in for my cleaning. The music, the lighting, the photographs... Most of all, the wonderful people who work there.
Dr.Maria herself is wonderful! So professional and nice.
I don't know if Jamie still works there (I think that's her name) but she was great.
The office and examination rooms or sparklingly clean and some of the chairs massage. So lovely.
It's right on the 57 bus and parking is pretty readily available on street. The 86 bus also goes right down the street so those in Cambridge have no excuse!
They have an amazing referral system, too. I haven't paid for a cleaning in a while because I just keep referring new patients to them. I will continue to see her even after I move away from the city, I'm sure. read less

The massage chair you'll get your cleaning on is a nice touch! Dr Maria is kind, honest and professional. She's never tried to convince me I need a new filling or upsell in any way, as most other dentists have. The office is clean, bright and welcoming. They have early morning and evening appointments. Have never had an issue street parking. I live out of state now but still make sure to book here when I'm back home. read less

I happened upon this office based on the yelp reviews and I am very grateful. Everyone from the receptionists up to Maria is friendly and professional.
I have been here three times now, two cleanings and a cavity. The atmosphere is very relaxed and Maria fully explains everything before proceeding. In addition, she is not pushy when it comes to additional services. She suggested that I get a mouth guard, but didn't hound me like a used car salesman. Also, when we discussed teeth whitening, she said I could use Crest white strips if I had more time and didn't want to spend as much.
I recently moved to Southie, but keep coming back here because this is a dentist you keep for as long as you stay in Boston. read less

She went above and beyond her call and was patient explaining exactly what is involved in each procedure and thoroughly walked me through each of my options. She's so awesome that I am going to switch from my dentist half a mile away from me to instead troop the 52 minutes to her practice. 10/10 highly recommend read less
