I was amazed to have an initial visit with Dr. Langton within just a few days and the crown replaced at a second visit just a few days later. The entire staff was friendly, courteous, professional, and helpful, and Dr. Langton both clearly explained his plan and took the time to answer any questions I had. The office has some evening and Saturday hours, a terrific help for working patients. It's also easy to set up appointments for a routine cleaning on line. All in all, an exceptional experience.

25+ year patient here. Great visit as always. Dr Lapidus is the best dentist I've ever had (and I'm 64). Lexi is an excellent and caring hygenist who helps put patients at ease.

It was a first to come over Belmont Dental Group for second opinion about necessary dental procedures for root canal surgery and I wish I could find it earlier. Dr. Yoon listened to my oral history and problem carefully and explained what options I have. I decided to take his evaluation because it makes sense for me. I appreciate his honesty and professional attitude! People working here are also kind and respectful so Highly recommend!
