12 Best Dentists in Boston's Financial District

The Dental Group at Post Office Square makes most sense for patients who would rather not be referred across town. General dentists share the ninth-floor office with an endodontist, periodontists, a prosthodontist and an orthodontist, so a root canal, gum treatment or braces can stay in the same practice as routine checkups.

Impressions are taken with an intraoral scanner and implant work is planned with 3D CBCT imaging. Appointments start at 7:30 in the morning, including Saturdays, and patients without insurance can join the in-house savings plan.

For gum treatment or a root canal without a referral, Devonshire Dental of Boston keeps specialists alongside its family dentists. Dr. Dean Levy and Dr. Christa Rizkallah, a husband-and-wife team, lead the general dentistry, and a periodontist and an endodontist see patients in the same suite, so most care stays with one practice and one set of records.

Invisalign is handled from start to finish in the office, and severe toothaches can usually be seen the same day. The practice is in network with Delta Dental Premier, Blue Cross Blue Shield and Cigna.

Faneuil Hall Dental Associates suits patients facing complex restorative work who still want a family dentist for routine visits. Dr. Ashley Amini-Sami, a board-certified prosthodontist, leads implant, veneer and full-mouth rehabilitation cases, and the office has its own dental lab and 3D CBCT imaging. Cleanings, sealants, fillings and Invisalign are handled in the same practice.

The office is open until 6 pm on weekdays and on Saturdays from 10 am to 3 pm, and an on-call team answers dental emergencies at any hour. Appointments can be requested by text message.

New England Dental Group's downtown office is set up for patients who want treatment finished in as few visits as possible. Crowns are milled in a single appointment with CEREC, dentures can be 3D printed and implants are placed with X-Guide navigation, all from a historic building at One Milk Street. Dr. Margarita Panajoti, a cosmetic dentist, leads the team.

Patients are offered noise-canceling headphones and can choose a show to watch during treatment. Appointments run until 6 pm from Monday to Thursday, which helps after work, and a membership plan covers preventive care for patients without insurance.

Anxious patients and people whose health affects their teeth are the focus at Dental Health and Wellness Boston. Dr. Jill Smith, who founded the State Street practice in 1998 and has a background in psychology, offers sedation for fearful patients and treats people with eating disorders or going through cancer treatment. A board-certified periodontist works in the same office.

Cosmetic options include veneers, bonding, whitening and Invisalign. The office opens at 7 am from Tuesday to Thursday, and virtual consultations are available before a first visit.

Smile Design Boston's strength lies in cosmetic and restorative work planned by specialists. Three of its dentists are prosthodontists, including founder Dr. Andre Hashem, and periodontist Dr. Jess Liu places implants and treats gum disease in the same office. Several of the team teach at Boston University's dental school, and routine cleanings and checkups are part of the practice too.

The office is independently owned rather than part of a dental chain and sits near the Rose Kennedy Greenway. Invisalign is offered as part of its smile makeover plans, alongside veneers and crowns.
