Patient Testimonials

My over all experience with Gentle Dental Smile was excellent. Every single person in that office is very supportive. I would recommend everyone who wants to do any type of dental work done. Don’t take my word for it. Experience it yourself.

Dharmesh

Dr. Shah is an awesome dentist. She tells you exactly what is wrong and if not a major concern at the time she’ll tell you that she doesn’t want to perform the problem. She’s not about money at all. My son needed two cavities to be filled and she wasn’t expecting me to ask if she could do it right away but I did and her only concern was the other patients waiting to be examined. She checked to see if she able to fit my son in and she said she could. Just live this place and will continue to go to Gentle Dental.

There’s nothing more beautiful, inspiring, contagious and fun then a beautiful smile. It can light up a room, bring a smile to someone else’s face, and make you feel special. I had some bonding done on my two teeth several years ago that became discolored over time. I bleached my teeth and I was not happy having two teeth that were darker than the rest since “bonding” does not bleach. I decided it may be time to get Veneers to make my smile better and the results have been great. I found Gentle Dental Smile browsing through the internet and I am very happy I did.

P.P.

As a “frequent flier” for dental care, Dr. Kal and Dr. Ami (and staff) make the experience of visiting the dentist’s office a pleasure. Three words to describe this practice: Honest, caring and professional. 🙂

I stumbled upon this facility through my insurance network and I have to say what a pleasant experience. The Shah’s saved my tooth! I’m so happy! I am in no pain whatsoever. Everything was very professional and clean. Thanks!! Definitely staying with this practice.

D.S.

I absolutely love the Shahs! It had been quite a few years since I had been to a dentist and they made me feel completely relaxed and comfortable. I found out that I had a couple cavities that needed to be filled, and they were extremely comprehensive with me. They took full x-rays, showed me where I had cavities, how big they were, etc, and were incredibly nice too! two weeks later now, and I am COMPLETELY satisfied! I would HIGHLY recommend going to Gentle Dental if you need dental work done.

Today I had a long overdue visit to the dentist’s office and I just so happen to pick Gentle Dental Smile’s office in Hanover Park and boy it was a blessing! Both Doctors, Ami and Kal I had the pleasure of meeting and being in their care.. I was nervous at first but I quickly calmed down and got ready for the last minute tooth removal.. Dr.Shah was confident and ready to perform which allowed me to relax.. The care that the husband and wife team showed for my mouth was apparent and genuine.. It honestly was PAINLESS and QUICK, the way I like dentist visits..lol

P.F.

I absolutely love the care my daughters have received from all the staff at gentle dental! My children are very young and have absolutely no fear of going to the dentist b/c they are treated so well! True to it’s name, Gental Dental is indeed, “gentle”….Thank you Manny & Dr Ami!!

B.W.

I called the office in severe pain, not knowing what was wrong with my mouth/teeth.. The dr was very professional and kind to show exactly what is wrong with pictures, which is very important to make sure that they are giving you the right solution. I’m pain free now and would definitely recommend everyone to go here.. I just made sure that they are now my home dentist.
