About Advance Dental
Losing a tooth starts a slow chain that most people never see: the bone that held the root begins to shrink, the neighboring teeth drift toward the gap, and the bite quietly redistributes onto the other side. Replacing it is as much about interrupting that chain as filling the space. Advance Dental handles that work at 1038 Main Street in the South End, a locally owned office that also carries the everyday dentistry, cleanings, sealants and fillings, for families across Springfield, Holyoke, West Springfield, Agawam, Longmeadow and Chicopee.
The options split fairly cleanly once you look at them side by side. An implant is closest to the original tooth and leaves the ones beside it untouched, but it needs bone and it needs months. A porcelain bridge is faster and uses the adjacent teeth as anchors, which means reducing healthy enamel to carry it. Partial and full dentures cost the least and arrive soonest, at the expense of feel and chewing force. Snap-on dentures sit between the two, clipping onto a small number of implants so the plate stays put for a fraction of a full fixed arch.
Dr. Joshi and Dr. Ditomassi lead the practice. Diagnosis runs on digital X-rays and an intraoral camera, which in practical terms means you see what they see on the screen instead of taking a description on faith. Cosmetic work covers porcelain crowns, veneers, composite fillings, onlays, whitening and gum contouring, with Invisalign offered for alignment cases and night guards for grinding.
The children's side is unusually complete for a general office: infant exams, cleanings and X-rays, fluoride and sealants, silver diamine fluoride to arrest early decay without drilling, tooth-colored fillings, root canals on baby teeth, frenectomies and custom sports mouthguards. That matters if you would rather not drive a six-year-old to a separate pediatric practice across town.
This stretch of Main Street sits just south of downtown near the Interstate 91 ramps, which suits a drive-in appointment far better than a walk-in one. Weekday mornings begin at 8:30, Friday a little earlier, with no weekend hours listed. Extractions, root canals and bone grafting are done on site, and the office handles insurance paperwork and lists financial options; staged treatment can often be spread across two benefit years.
Advance Dental is a locally owned practice at 1038 Main Street in Springfield's South End, led by Dr. Joshi and Dr. Ditomassi. It pairs full family and children's dentistry, including infant exams, sealants, silver diamine fluoride, frenectomies and sports mouthguards, with tooth replacement through implants, porcelain bridges, full and partial dentures and snap-on implant-retained dentures. Digital X-rays and an intraoral camera support diagnosis, and Invisalign, whitening and gum contouring are offered.

Very professional, ...
I have along with so many of us, suffered extreme anxiety with dental work. At advanced dental they make you feel at home and comfortable. I love them and happy to have found them!!! Fantastic staff!!!!
✨💯
Everyone in the office is incredible.They are a good team.Im a person who hates going to the docter. I actually look forword to my dental appointments.
I unfortunately do not recommend this dentist to NO ONE. The receptionists are very unresponsible, I had an appointment twice and when I got the day off work to go, they said they wouldn’t be able to do it on that day anymore and said they called me to let me know and when I check my call list and there’s NO calls from them both times. Multiple times I’ve had problems with my insurance becuase the receptionist said they would send them a letter themselves and never did.Overall, I’ve had the worst experience but the DR itself isn’t bad. RIGHT OFFICE. Even asked my family in person to delete this comment which I was going to until saw the comment back to my review.
Had problems with a denture which was recently made by a local lab and Advance dental sent it back to be redone at no cost. Dental employees and techs were extremely courteous, attentive and compassionate. Couldn't have asked for a better result, thank you.
The dental assistant was amazing , she was intuitive and reassuring . Dr. Josi was amazing . I have a phobia and I would come here again and again .
I am so satisfied with this office they are the most respectful caring ppl I’ve have met in a very long time. I’ve been missing a tooth for over a year and the work they did I’m so satisfied with no one even knows. Five stars all the time
The hygienist at your office was fantastic. ! She literally had the most gentle hands, I've had in my entire life and that would be some 50 years of having teeth cleaned. At the end of The visit, I spoke with doctor J. regarding diagnostics. While the news was not what I would like, she and I quickly teamed to give me a plan to follow and feel comfortable with. I am very grateful.
This place is amazing the nurses Dr omg! I had the worst toothache I have ever felt in my 36 years of living, I called 1st thing, got me in 1st thing an oh my I left that place feeling soo much better, happy, heard, an most importantly!!
