Before last week I had only ever gone to the same dentist since I was born. However, since they were only a pediatric dentist I had to stop seeing them once I turned 19 and had to find a new dentist that I could put all my trust into. When I found gentle dental on google, I read all the reviews and decided to give it a shot. I planned an opening patient appointment to see if I liked the office and doctor. The building layout and location is a little goofy and confusing, however that’s an irrelevant detail to how great they turned out to be. I saw Joanna as my assistant when I first got there and she was very kind, listened to why I came, and offered me advice regarding my transition. She did a minor examination and took x-rays. While waiting for Doctor Minetola to come in, she informed me that there was an opening for a cleaning if I wanted (which was amazing and thoughtful of them to inform me). When Doctor Minetola came in, he was just phenomenal. He took the time to explain about the business as a whole, introduce himself, ask about my current life, and dental history. He then did an examination and was just overall very kind and thoughtful. He suggested work to be done that was backed up with proof and professionalism. Overall, he is a fabulous Doctor. Finally, I saw Amy who did my cleaning. As everyone else did, she was sure to introduce herself and ask about my life. She explained everything she was doing and what I needed to do to keep up with my dental health. I would say that Gentle Dental definitely made me feel comfortable in my (forced) switch to a new dentist. I would recommend them to anyone else in my position or just looking for a new dentist. Overall wonderful service, staff, and most of all dentistry work. I will definitely return for all my other dental needs!

The staff at Gentle Dentle remember all my family individually, we have a daughter who is special needs-they were great with her! It’s exactly what a great dentist office should be.

I use to have dental anxiety until I started going to Gentle Dental of Springfield. From the minute I walked in the door until I checked out they were nothing but friendly and professional. I set my appointment up online and did my new patient paperwork online prior to my appointment. The assistants and Dr. Fee were absolutely amazing. After my examination they gave me a detailed breakdown of the work I need to accomplish with no pressure on time frame. I set my appointment for the next day to have a root canal plus I also had a cleaning with Natalie (Dental Hygenist) which I was also pleased with. I highly recommend going to Gentle Dental of Springfield. They took my fear of seeing a dentist away with just one visit. I have my next few appointments set up and I am glad I went there.

Dr. Minatoli (if I am spelling correctly) is absolutely amazing. I had extreme dental pain from two cracked teeth and an abscess. Typically, an appointment is made for a later date after assessing the problem with xrays. He could tell I was in unbearable pain and would not let me leave until he could help me someway. After determining the procedure could take anywhere from 10 min to 2 hours, and still leaving the possibility of needing oral surgery due to the structure of my roots, he promised he would do his best to relieve me of my pain. Time it took? 20 minutes max. I am so impressed with his work. I will continue to come back from here on out. Let me just add, a huge factor I consider in choosing medical/dental facilities is the desk staff along with assistants. They were all incredibly nice and very polite.
Kira W.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Fee, Rudy, Natalie, Kanesha, Kim, and the rest of the team. I’ve had everything from cleanings to root canals done at Gentle Dentle and now have an awesome new smile thanks to them. The front office explained the costs in detail before and after each visit so there were no surprises financially, the place is extremely clean, and the dental work has been outstanding.
Larry D.
I have nothing bad to say about this place. Everyone was friendly and I felt completely comfortable. Haven’t gone to the dentist in awhile and the worse part was just the anticipation of getting started. Doctor and Hygienist and staff were super!
Similarity T.
Really great dental group. They are extremely accommodating with appointments and availability. I really appreciate the quick and genuine service they provide. Highly recommend!
Casey H.
Mark Minetola and Michele Ferguson are two of the best dentists in this area by far ! I absolutely love my hygienist, she always does an amazing job. Judy Lees is an awesomely amazing assistant and all of the staff are always so friendly I always walk out the door with a smile on my face.
Lorrie R.
I’ve been going to Gentle Dental for several years now. Back in April I took a fall down some concrete steps, leaving some severe trauma to my mouth and me without two front teeth. Dr. Nached and his team were so wonderful to me and really made me feel comfortable as I continuously cried through my visits. Terri, the office manager, is fabulous and has helped accommodate my needs and I couldn’t be more grateful to the entire office staff! I am so happy with my new teeth and although I wish I didn’t have to go through the experience, I’m very lucky I had this dentist to help me.
Hillary H.
I recommended Gentle Dental to my friend. She is as happy with the staff and service as I am!!
Diana R.
This dental practice has been amazing. They are professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I had not been to the dentist in quite some time, and was nervous about being reprimanded…nope all I got was do not wait this long and here is what needs to get done. They prices were lower than expected and service was fast! I was in a time crunch due to moving in a few months and staff worked hard to get me in for all I needed done! Thank you so much for making this a positive experience!
Cheryl O.
I’ve been coming to Gentle Dental for 7 years and love it. The hygienist and dentist are very skilled and very friendly and kind. I couldn’t be more happy and pleased with my dental care. Together we have wokred on a plan to decrease gum disease and plaque buld up. It is working very well!
Alyce B.
Very professionally run office,my appointment was on time and the staff extremely helpful. I met Denise as I entered, she was so pleasant and courteous and a joy to talk with. Any fears of being in a dentist office quickly dissipated. Dr. Valentine’s quick deductions of my oral problems,easy explanation about my treatment plan and the actual dental work on me was of the highest order. Thank you so much Gentle Dental of Westchester.
Neal M.
The dental hygienists, doctors, and staff are all very friendly and are helpful in calming my anxiety. When they are working on my teeth, they are gentle and understanding when I tell them I need a break and I always leave feeling confident in their work.
Erin D.
Thank you Gentle Dental of Collingdale for stepping up for kids for Give Kids A Smile week! Thank you for helping make sure that all children can get good oral health care to stay healthy!!
Colleen M.
The Dentist and staff are professional, knowledgeable and kind. I admit to having moderate to high levels of anxiety when visiting the Dentist. My past experiences in Dental offices have been unpleasant to say the least. The folks at Gentle Dental explained the procedures and repeatedly if I was alright with what they were doing. I really appreciated the holistic approach to dentistry that I experienced during my visit. I’m less anxious and confident that they know what they are doing. The equipment is modern. They took xrays, read them while I waited and discussed a plan of action. I would recommend this office to family, friends and colleagues.
Shannone N.
Customer service improved, staff is really welcoming and more assertive. They also seem to get patients in and out quicker since I left a few years ago and returned. Keep up the good work.

Ivory B.
The service with Gentle Dental is very good the receptionist to the nurses and doctors are all welcoming and sweet and they talk with you about other things other than dental you know which is good. I would recommend them for adults and kids my son is also a patient their and he is so scared of dentist but being there with them he is confident and all that nervousness isn’t there anymore because of the way they treat you which is very good.

Kenneth L.
Usually hate going to the dentist. My old dentist use to tell me to fight through the pain and other things when I had to get procedures done so I ended up gaining a distrust in dentist but my dentist is the complete opposite. He waited for me to relax myself when it was time to get the needle or stopped the procedure if I felt pain or panic. I have an unexpected wonderful experience here.
Amber S.
Very friendly and professional! Would definitely recommend this practice to anyone!
Alli M.

cleanliness of facility. The entire staff are very kind and genuinely care about each patient. The hygenists and doctors are very knowledgeable about things in the mouth that are not your average problems. I used to be dreading going to a dentist, even just for a cleaning. Then I found Gentle Dental, and they definitley “gentle”! They explain everything they are going to do, then once getting consent, proceed….constantly asking if you are in any pain. Everytime I go, it is a very positive experience. I have referred several friends and family members to Gentle Dental.
