Yes, we are actively welcoming new patients and would love to have you. You can book your first appointment online or call us at (781) 630-9924. Our team will walk you through everything you need to know before your visit.
The easiest way is to book online. You can choose a time that works for you without having to call. You’re also welcome to call us directly at (781) 630-9924 during office hours, and our team will get you scheduled.
We make every effort to accommodate urgent needs, including dental emergencies, as quickly as possible, often the same day or within the same week. For non-urgent appointments, availability varies, and booking online will show you the earliest available times.
Please bring a valid photo ID, your dental insurance card (if applicable), a list of any current medications, and any relevant dental records or X-rays if you have them. Arriving a few minutes early gives you time to complete any intake paperwork comfortably. Learn more about your first visit.
New patient appointments are generally scheduled for a full hour. This allows Dr. Sandhu time to perform a comprehensive exam, review X-rays, discuss your dental history, and answer your questions without feeling rushed. It’s not a quick in-and-out visit. We take the time to actually get to know you.
Yes, we participate in multiple insurance networks and work with a wide range of plans. Plans we commonly work with include:
Massachusetts state employees covered through the Group Insurance Commission (GIC) / Altus Dental are also welcome. Please call to verify your specific plan details.
If your plan isn’t listed, don’t assume you’re out-of-network. We work with many additional plans through our network affiliations. And even if your plan is truly out-of-network with our office, you may still have out-of-network dental benefits that can substantially or completely cover your visit. It’s always worth calling your insurance provider to check before assuming you’re not covered. Call us at (781) 630-9924, and we’ll verify your benefits before your visit so there are no surprises.
We offer a Dental Membership Plan starting at $149/year that covers your essential preventive care, including exams, X-rays, and cleanings, and includes a 15% discount on additional treatments. It’s a straightforward, affordable alternative to traditional insurance with no annual maximums, no waiting periods, and no claims to file.
Yes. We partner with Cherry, a healthcare financing platform that lets you split treatment costs into manageable monthly payments. Applying takes just a few minutes, there’s no hard credit pull to check your options, and most patients receive an approval decision almost immediately.
Yes. Your membership plan discount applies to your treatment cost first, and you can finance the remaining balance through Cherry. The two work together, not against each other.

Patients who’ve had anxiety about dental visits consistently tell us this practice changed how they feel about dental care.
We offer a full range of general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry, including cleanings and exams, Invisalign, veneers, teeth whitening, Botox (cosmetic and therapeutic), dental implant crowns, bridges, crowns, fillings, and more.
