General and Sedation Dentistry in Jamaica Plain
Smyleee Rating
Very Good
Dental Office, which operates under the Jamaica Plain Dental name at this location, is a general and sedation dental practice at 225 Centre Street in Jamaica Plain, Boston, Massachusetts. The practice serves the Jamaica Plain neighborhood and surrounding communities, offering both standard general dentistry and sedation options for patients who experience anxiety or require complex treatment.
General dental care at this location includes routine examinations, X-rays, and professional cleanings as the foundation of preventive oral health. Consistent preventive visits allow the dental team to monitor for early signs of decay, gum disease, and other conditions. Each examination is conducted with attention to explaining findings to patients clearly—using both clinical detail and plain language—so that patients can participate meaningfully in decisions about their care without feeling rushed or uninformed.
Sedation dentistry is available for patients who find dental visits difficult due to anxiety, past negative experiences, or the need for multiple procedures in one appointment. Sedation options allow these patients to receive necessary dental care in a more manageable way. Patients interested in sedation should discuss their medical history and any medications with the dental team before the appointment so that the appropriate type and level of sedation can be identified in advance.
The practice takes a deliberate pace with new patients—allowing time for questions and thorough explanations without rushing appointments. New patients who have had difficult dental experiences elsewhere have noted feeling more at ease at this location due to the staff’s approach to communication and preparation. Follow-up contact after treatment has also been part of how the practice monitors post-procedure recovery.
Centre Street in Jamaica Plain is served by the MBTA Orange Line at Green Street and Stony Brook stations and by several bus routes. The practice draws patients from Jamaica Plain, Roxbury, Mission Hill, West Roxbury, and the broader Boston south side. Street parking is generally available along the commercial section of Centre Street.

I have the pleasure of working with Nancy who is very friendly, professional, informative and the Doctor was amazing. I love this place because they respect people's time and take you in right at your appointment time. They have great customer service while checking in and out. Great refreshments while waiting. My teeth looks great and they answered all my questions. I highly recommend this place. I wish I can give it more stars.
Absolutely phenomenal experience — was recommended JP Dental after a stressful experience elsewhere that made me anxious to go back to the dentist. I felt welcomed, listened to (!!), and respected here. Especially appreciated that Dr. Swanson explained findings and treatment to me with a combination of scientific and layperson’s terms to make sure I understood exactly what was going on. The appointment did not feel rushed, nor did I feel like just another patient on the schedule. Really truly appreciate the entire staff for helping me feel confident and comfortable with something that has caused anxiety in the past! Could not recommend them more.
I had an amazing experience here as a new patient, and would definitely recommend JP Dental! Dr. French and Dio provided excellent service, and I appreciated how they checked in throughout the appointment to make sure that I was comfortable. I also appreciated how efficient they were without making the appointment feel rushed or unprioritized. Elle and Navi at the front desk were also incredibly friendly and helpful from the beginning to end of my appointment. The office was also spotless and very modern.
Great dental experience, everyone on the staff was so friendly and welcoming from Elle at the front desk who got me in earlier because I had another appointment and who was so sweet at check in and check out, Taven who was so helpful and took his time with the X-rays/cleaning and talking to me, and Dr. French himself took the time to explain what his thoughts were, what he was doing, what he recommended in the future. Probably one of the most thorough dental visits I’ve had and everyone was truly so kind and pleasant. 10/10 recommend!
I cannot recommend this office enough! I’ve always dealt with dental anxiety, but the team here completely changed my perspective on going to the dentist. From the moment I walked in, they made me feel heard and safe. They took the time to explain every single step of my treatment thoroughly, ensuring I felt comfortable before moving forward. What really blew me away was the follow-up call after my appointment just to check in on how I was healing. It’s rare to find a practice that combines such high-level expertise with genuine, heartfelt compassion. If you're nervous about dental work, this is the place to go!
