East Side dentistry in the heart of Providence's Wayland neighborhood
Smyleee Rating
Excellent
Angell Street Dental Associates practices at 425 Angell Street in the Wayland neighborhood of Providence's East Side — one of New England's most distinctive urban enclaves. The East Side of Providence is home to Brown University, the Rhode Island School of Design, and several educational and cultural institutions that give the neighborhood a dense concentration of academics, artists, healthcare professionals, and graduate students. Angell Street runs east-west through the heart of this district, connecting Wayland Square — a compact village-style retail area known for independent shops and cafes — to Blackstone Boulevard, the tree-lined promenade that traces the edge of the Blackstone neighborhood.
Angell Street Dental Associates provides general dentistry services for East Side residents and the broader professional community in this part of Providence. Preventive and diagnostic care — examinations, cleanings, and radiographs — form the core of the practice, with restorative services including fillings and crown work available for patients with decay or damaged teeth. The Wayland neighborhood patient base tends toward educated professionals and families engaged with their healthcare choices and accustomed to quality-oriented practices.
Providence's East Side dental market is notably distinct from the city's other neighborhoods: the proximity of Brown and RISD brings a large population of students, faculty, and staff, while the area's historic residential streets house long-established Providence families alongside newer arrivals drawn by the neighborhood's cultural amenity. The 02906 zip code encompasses some of the most sought-after residential real estate in Rhode Island, and dental practices in this ZIP code serve a patient community that reflects that character. Specialist care — orthodontics, periodontics, implant surgery — is accessible within Providence or via the broader southern New England dental market.
For Providence East Side residents and the extended Brown and RISD community, Angell Street Dental Associates on Angell Street offers a locally embedded general dentistry option in the heart of one of Rhode Island's most desirable urban neighborhoods.

I received a semi-annual cleaning at Angell Street Dental today from dental hygienist Jocelyn. She was very professional and caring as always. Her technique involves just the right amount of communication, thoroughness, and gentle touch. Dr. Thomas DePetrillo is my dentist and he checked me out after and suggested a follow up treatment for two potential looming cavities. Angell St Dental makes you feel you're in good hands with a very caring staff.
Absolutely great office. John, the office manager, is awesome and very helpful. The staff is great, knowledgeable, and friendly.
Yes, they were awesome!
Best dental care ever!!!
Appointment on time very accommodating Great service.
Jocelyn is the best Hygienist I have had. She cleaned my teeth without the unpleasant digging and scraping I am accustomed to. She is also very pleasant and capable. You are lucky to have her. Got ve her a raise!!
This is hands down one of the best dental offices I’ve experienced. The entire team is kind, welcoming, and highly knowledgeable about dental care. I especially recommend Jordan as a dental hygienist. She is thorough, professional, and very accommodating for patients with anxiety, which makes a huge difference. The front desk staff, John and Nicole, are equally fantastic. They are friendly, organized, and very helpful when it comes to navigating insurance questions. Overall, it is an outstanding dental office. From the moment you walk in, you feel well taken care of and at ease. Highly recommend!
My hygienist, Sharon, gave me the best cleaning I've had in a while! I had some tricky spots she had to take care of and she did an amazing and thorough job. Dr. DePetrillo did my exam and he was thorough, informative and had a great sense of humor to ease my time in the chair. Most importantly, he didn't rush through the examination which was very appreciated. Highly recommend.
Have enjoyed many years with Dr. D and staff! Professional, warm and friendly while providing the ultimate in up-to-date dentistry. I miss Mary at the front desk since her retirement! She'll be happy to know John is very welcoming at the front desk. Every assistant and dental hygienist has been outstanding and caring. My most current hygienist, Dawn, is delightful, proficient and on time always! Dr. D takes the anxiety out of dentistry! Highly recommend this office!
Very friendly, accommodating staff! Front desk wants to help get you the best insurance cuts they can. Very clear and upfront. The doctors also are so patient and helpful and willing to answer extra questions and provide feedback that is actually useful! So far this group has seemed like a wonderful find. I’m not sure how much it is all gonna cost, but they were upfront about that as well; I just haven’t added it up bc I just want a clean mouth! I’m happy with this group and feel relief knowing they will make sure I’m healthy.
My hygienist is awesome. She’s always so pleasant throughout the whole cleaning. Also, she listens to great music too. And Nicole at the front desk is awesome as well. I hope I stay with Angell Street Dental my whole life
This is a terrific practice. Dr. DePetrillo is extremely competent. All the hygienists are knowledgeable and do their job very well. The office staff are efficient and organized. The place runs like clockwork. I have always gotten into one of the treatment rooms right on time. Highly recommended.
