Candace has been my hygienist for many years. I have always not only received the best oral health care and advice on prevention, Candace has always been warm, friendly and supportive. I feel I can call her my hygienist and my friend!

Report
I have had excellent care at Waban Dental Group over many years. However, in my recent visit, the new hygienist cleaned rapidly and aggressively, leading to much more pain and bleeding than on previous encounters with other hygienists. I hope this was an exception, and I will stay with the practice but request a different provider. On another subject, the practice seems to be very careful about COVID safety, with masking (except when teeth are being accessed!), ventilation, and vacuum intakes near the patient's mouth.

Dental hygienist Candace did an exceptional job. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and make my teeth clean. My teeth were left shiny white, as if I had a whitening treatment - she's so thorough. Great practice with honest and reliable dentist, highly recommended

Dr. Birnhak has been my dentist for over 20 years. She is a superb clinician who checks constantly when performing the dentistry to make sure I'm as comfortable as possible. She really cares about her patients and has got to be one of the most skilled and knowledgeable dentists practicing anywhere. I doubt anyone likes going to the dentist but I always have confidence that if work needs to be done ( and unfortunately I've had a lot done) Dr B will perform it skillfully, efficiently, with as little discomfort as possible and with aesthetically pleasing results. Her dental assistant, Jane, is wonderful too. Dr. B is absolutely the best!
