Rita helped set up an appointment for my mother in no time. Everyone was super welcoming and friendly and took very good care of her!
The entire time that I've been having cleaning this is the best yet!!! Goooo to Somerville First Dental always and forever the best team best environment. 10/10 Fantastic people and great staff and amazing job.
Had to have two fillings done. The doctor was very gentle. Did a great job. Asked if everything was ok when he finished. I would recommend First Dental for all your dental needs
I called First Dental for a cleaning and checkup. When I arrived I was warmly greeted by Rita at the front desk. I was taken promptly for my cleaning. The hygienist was both professional and friendly. My teeth were in terrible shape yet the hygienist was non judge mental and after my cleaning I was introduced to Dr Hovannes (sp?). I told him I didn’t want a lecture or to feel embarrassed and or ashamed of the condition of my teeth. He told me that the only lecture I would get was a discussion of what needed to be done, how many visits were needed and how he could give me a smile I could be proud of. This was the first time I haven’t felt embarrassed or ashamed. It took many visits and a lot of work, but my fear of the dentist is completely gone and I absolutely LOVE my new smile! I literally cried when I saw the results of his hard work done with ZERO pain. My dental work took place over the summer and I thought I wrote this months ago. I saw that somehow it didn’t post. I’m no computer expert, but I do know that First Dental changed my life! I no longer hide my smile. As a matter of fact I wear lipstick that brings out my smile! I can’t say enough about First Dental. Dr Hovannes and his assistant were amazing and I highly recommend anyone looking for a new dentist to try First Dental. I’m forever grateful!
Dr Hovannes is not only a terrific dentist but he is very personable as well. He made me feel at ease by talking with me. The work he did was amazing. I needed major dental work done and it was almost impossible to see a finish, but with the help of Rita @(front desk) who worked with me with me from day 1 of scheduling until I was completely done. The pictures speak for themselves. I was adamant about keeping my Real teeth. Even for the duration of the time that I couldn’t afford some procedures First Dental (somerville) kept my teeth as good as they could (first pic) - over a year or 2, and 2nd & 3rd pics are my completed real teeth.
