About Capital Dental

Capital Dental provides dental care on Devonshire Place Northwest in the Northwest Washington area of Washington, District of Columbia. At the core of a general dental practice is preventive and restorative care: checkups, professional cleanings, fillings, and screening for decay and gum disease before either becomes a bigger problem. It is the kind of appointment most people need on a routine schedule rather than only when something hurts.

Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.

Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.

Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.

Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway. Contact details for Capital Dental are on this page, along with the full list of services offered — reach out to ask about scheduling.

Dr. Roberts and the whole team here are phenomenal. Besides being a talented dentist who worked with my orthodontist team to make my DREAM smile (she absolutely knocked it out of the park bonding my peg tooth!), you can tell she's a caring, kind, and empathetic dentist who truly has your best interests at heart. As long as I'm in the area I will be continuing to go to her, she's the best dentist I've ever had. Highly recommend!!!

You guys need to do better I was disappointed by the lack of professionalism shown by the assistant during my appointment. She wore headphones while . During an appointment, patients should feel heard and prioritized, and wearing headphones gives the impression that personal distractions are more important than patient care. I would rather have the short assistant instead of the other assistant with the braids looking mad all the time.

Dr. Roberts is amazing!! She took so much time with me on my first appointment and had researched my complex medical conditions before I came in. She made sure she understood them and how they would affect my care and checked repeatedly to make sure I wasn’t in discomfort. She took a closer look at a tooth I’ve been complaining about for years and caught an infection that multiple other dentists have not. I cannot tell you how relieved I am to have found her.

I just came here today for my dental cleaning and to get my lower bar retainer repaired. Dr. Mujtaba was absolutely wonderful and took the time to answer all my questions and go over my dental scans with me in detail. She was also very understanding about the fact that I have pretty bad dental anxiety and regularly checked in to make sure I was okay throughout the cleaning, stopping to give me a break when necessary. I’ve moved around a lot in the last few years, so I’ve gone to quite a few dentists — but none of them has made me feel as comprehensively taken care of as Dr. Mujtaba and all the folks at Capitol Dental. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a dentist in the DC area. Thank you so much!!

I’ve had the best experience at Capitol Dental! Dr. McCoy-Collins is very skilled, and the staff at the office is super helpful! I had two wisdom teeth taken out, and there was barely any pain or swelling after the procedure. The recovery was as smooth as it gets. Their rate is amazing too, and Dr. McCoy-Collins helped me make a treatment plan that was well under my budget. As a student with a tight budget I cannot appreciate her enough. Would highly recommend Capitol Dental, and I’m honestly considering transferring my general dental care to their office too.

Dr. Roberts and the team at Capitol Dental are fantastic, contributing to one of the best dental checkups I have ever had! Dr. Roberts was extremely attentive to all of my concerns, taking the time to help explain next steps forward and a plan for my continued care. The hygienists were also extremely kind and gentle, and the folks at the front desk were beyond helpful and courteous. I am so happy to have found a great new dentist in the neighborhood.
