Fantastic experience: As a new patient I was treated in a very welcoming way. They helped me professionally and treated me very respectfully. My dentist, Dr. Bashour also showed genuine compassion and understanding. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Wellesley Dental Group enough! Dr. Ali completely transformed my smile with veneers over six years ago, and they have held up absolutely beautifully. Even after all this time, they still look incredible, feel natural, and have exceeded every expectation I had. Dr. Ali is truly exceptional—not only is he incredibly talented and detail-oriented, but he genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in his work. His expertise gave me a smile that I’m still confident and happy with every single day. His wife is just as wonderful! Together, they create such a welcoming, kind, and caring environment that makes every visit a positive experience. The entire office is professional, friendly, and goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. If you’re considering cosmetic or general dental work, I wholeheartedly recommend Wellesley Dental Group. Six-plus years later, I can honestly say choosing Dr. Ali was one of the best decisions I ever made for my smile. Thank you for everything!

Fantastic experience: Once again I had the pleasure of taking a trip to Disney World, I mean Wellesley Dental Group, to get my one good tooth shaved. Had a lovely discussion with Cruise Director/Office Manager Sara, Lifestyle Director and Events Manager Dr. Bassima Bashour D.D.S and Life Coach/Fun Director/Dental Hygienist Megan. Megan removed the barnacles from my teeth smoother than water off a duck’s back; mandatory nap time. Later enters Chief Morale Officer Madame Dr. Femina Ali D.M.D. She said my teeth will probably stay in my head a little while longer due to the masterful work of her sweetheart of a husband Padre Dr. Ejaz Ali D.M.D. Speaking of, I get to go back tomorrow for Padre to true up a few of the crooked corners in my mouth. If y’all have’nt visited this practice for maintenance of your “cutters”, you have no idea what you are missing. I dreaded going to the dentist before meeting these folks. Now I call it Disney World. Come on by some time cause the water sure is fine. Don’t forget to brush and floss everyday and that includes your dog’s teeth.

Fantastic experience: Both my wife and I have been going to Wellesley Dental for several years now, and have been totally satisfied with the dental care provided by the professionals in this office! Drs. Ali blend of technical and scientific expertise, combined with their sensitivity to patient comfort and to effective communication sets them apart from most every dental office in the area. This is one dental office that I actually look forward to visiting each time I have an appointment.

Negative experience: Staff turnover and lack of follow-up between orthodontic staff and dental staff, also seemed to have a major transition during the time I was served as a patient. Note for parents or people with caregivers: not enough room to have another person in room with patient comfortably.

Adrian W. Published on Google

Negative experience: My family were patients at Wellesley Dental for a year, and we consistently received excellent clinical care. Dr. Ali, Dr. Beheshti, and the hygienist team are professional, attentive, and skilled. Although the clinical care was excellent, a long billing dispute began in July 2024 when my insurer identified a processing error that billed my services as out-of-network rather than in-network. For seven months, Wellesley Dental repeatedly reported they were waiting for insurance paperwork to process my refund. My insurer sent seven letters and one fax to Wellesley Dental; I made six calls, sent seven emails, mailed a detailed four-page letter, and participated in one three-way call to resolve the issue. Despite our efforts, my refund was never processed. In February 2025, I escalated the matter to the state attorney general and local media. NBC 10 decided to investigate my dispute and contacted 42 North Dental (the parent company), and a refund check for $373.50 was issued on 2/27/2025. A few days after receiving the refund, a call with the regional manager provided a full apology and an explanation: mailed insurance correspondence went to an unstaffed payments PO box; staff failed to take ownership; and operational challenges across multiple locations caused systemic failures. The regional manager said the case was escalated and would be used for staff training. The story aired on NBC 10 Boston on March 19, 2025; search “NBC 10 Charged out-of-network rates for an in-network provider.” Although I received my refund, this was a stressful and avoidable ordeal.

Yusef Hertzel Published on Google

Negative experience: Wellesley Dental Group presents itself with the polished charm of a suburban institution but beneath the gleam is a practice that treats trust as something to be bartered. Pricing is never as clear as the smile in their advertisements and insurance is billed with a generosity that benefits only their accounts. Work is suggested with the air of medical necessity yet carries the faint scent of the unnecessary. In the end you leave with clean teeth but a nagging sense you have been taken for a ride in a very expensive chair.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful team. Their care for patients and treatment has been excellent and pleasant for my child and me. We moved here two years ago and this whole team from front door to all the tech and of course dentists is so wonderful. My child can be fearful with dental procedures and they took care of three “sugar bugs” on his teeth and he didn’t even know he had an injection. Amazing. I am so happy we found them.

Prentice Pilot Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Grab a drink and take a seat because this is going to be a long review. First of all, everybody at the Wellesley Dental Group is off the chain(that means fantastic for the uninitiated in the crowd). When you first enter the office you will be greeted by two of the most kind, engaging and considerate people you will ever want to meet. These two are Sara(Office Manager) and Vicki(Front Desk/Receptionist Magician). Have a little chat with them before hand and they will put your mind at ease and help you to get your whole life together in a New York Minute. Now on to the business of the business. I had a little bit of oral surgery which was performed by Dr. Hickins and his Dental Assistant Nikki. Dr. Hickins has hands like Houdini and to say that he knows what He is doing would be a severe understatement. He explained what he was going to do, did it and we were done. I did not even have time to break into a cold sweat before he finished. Nikki, Dr. Hickins’ Dental Assistant, was also exceptional. Her “Chair-side” manner was stellar. She also explained what was going to happen in an effective and efficient manner. Dr. Hickins and Nikki worked as such a great team; almost finishing each other’s sentences. Professionally they work as well as peanut butter and jelly, bread and butter, lobster and butter, Batman and Robin etc. You get the point. This is the second review I have submitted for the Wellesley Dental Group. These folks are truly fantastic. They have and continue to alleviate my fear of the dentist. It truly is a family feeling. So, if you are looking for competency in this most important profession go check them out.

Fantastic experience: You can feel the difference when you walk in. Leyla is my hygienist and she makes the visit so easy. I am happy to go because I know she is there, and I know my teeth will be clean and strong. She is fast and gentle and done before you know it. The Ali family built the practice with us in mind, and everything in there is brand new. They know my name and always make me feel like I matter, and the new tech makes it so easy to have nice choppers. Beau Wing

Fantastic experience: We have treated with Dr's Ali since 2001, throughout that time they have been professional, on time, and emergent if needed. We have had such a great experience we still return to see them even though we no longer live in Mass. The hour and fifteen minute commute is well worth it for the personal and professional relationship we have developed. Leila is absolutely, hands down the best at cleaning my teeth.

Nate Walsh Published on Google

Negative experience: This practice is a scam. Go elsewhere. At my last visit the dentist wasn’t there so the dental hygienists were talking about my X-rays and exam. Complete malpractice. After hearing the the hygienists discussing me teeth, I asked for a dentist to consult and they then told me my regular dentist had left the practice and they didn’t even communicate that. Total clown show. Don’t trust these people

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ali and team are incredibly professional, efficient, and detail oriented in their services while also maintaining a warm, familial, and humorous atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: I visited Wellesley Dental Group after spending years with an absolutely terrible dentist whose cleanings were chaotic and painful. When I arrived to my first appointment with Dr. Ali and Leyla, I was incredibly anxious. Dr. Ali and Leyla were incredibly patient, listened to my concerns, and communicated clearly when they approached a sensitive spot on my teeth. My cleanings at Wellesley Dental pain-free and thorough. I no longer feel anxious when I have a cleaning coming up. They are consistently on time, professional, and very friendly. I wish I had started seeing them sooner!

Patty Morgan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Embarrassed to admit I didn’t go to the dentist for over 7 years. I was always traumatically fearful until I found Wellesley Dental Group. Dr. Femina Ali was so kind, thoughtful and gentle from my very first visit. She respected my fear and worked with me. She set me up with the best hygienist I have ever been to - Layla is extraordinary - such a kind, caring, skilled and gentle person. Then I have had both Dr. Femina Ali and Dr. Ali work on me and they are such skilled dentists while still being caring and conscious of my fears. Layla and the doctors turned my dental experience around. I can hardly believe I don’t mind going now and have been with them for over 6 years!

Fantastic experience: Very good service and experience. They actually tell you what you costs are before the procedure and explain you every part of your operation.

Negative experience: I was cheated and taken advantage of by my dental office after going in for a routine cleaning, and finding two cavities that required fillings during my cleaning, I was told that they found two cavities that needed fillings, and I would not be responsible for anything but the co-pay I also confirmed this when I made the schedule to come in for my fillings with the receptionist when I came in for the fillings another day I also asked I was told the same thing. I am very surprised to have received the bill for approximately $200 to pay for these filings. I do have a witness that was there with me for the cleaning, and also heard the same from the dental staff regarding my only responsibility to be co-pay for this service.

Fantastic experience: I had a "dental emergency" today - a bridge that came loose. I called at 1:00pm, and got an appointment at 2:00pm. They took me exactly on time, and I was able to make a 3:00 meeting across town with a renewed smile! A great experience.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Wellesley Dental Group for years and they always provide great care and service. Last week, I saw something that I never expected to see. Bryan, an aide working there, took service to a new level. He walked an elderly patient home in the rain while holding an umbrella to keep her dry. Bryan’s interaction with her was both gentle and respectful. It was one of the kindest acts I’ve seen in years. This is a testament to the type of culture that the Drs. Ali have built.

Fantastic experience: They are some of the best dentists I have ever been to. Their staff are professional and the hygienists do a fast, complete cleaning. They know so much and everyone has great interpersonal skills. They will also answer questions you might have outside of your appointment, such as when buying an electric toothbrush (which is what I used them for, I must have called 3 or 4 times). They also have access to very good specialists though they are not on staff full time. They also provide NOx services which can be very useful for people who need it. Overall I would say anyone could go here and be comfortable, even those who hate the dentist.

Fantastic experience: Best dental office I’ve ever been to. Very professional and you could tell they had lots of experience. Was super nervous about getting my wisdom teeth removed, but felt no pain and everything healed very well!

Daniela Garcia Published on Google

Fantastic experience: My youngest went in for her first dental appointment with Dr. Houshmand and it was by far the most pleasant and smooth doctors appointment I have ever taken her to! Her dental assistant Laura was such a gem and had so much patience with her. We are so looking forward to returning for her 6 month appointment :)

Nora Monterrosa Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Amazing work from Dr. Ali and his dental staff. He removed a wisdom tooth and did a filling at the same time. I highly recommend seeing him he did amazing work and he’s a very friendly person. The entire staff was also great.

Fantastic experience: Everyone here is very kind, caring and personable, the practice is beautiful, clean and high-tech, and the dental work is thorough, efficient and well-done!

Breunna Weathersby Published on Google

Fantastic experience: This was my first time coming to Wellesley Dental Group and I had an amazing experience! I was first seen by Dr. Famina. She was very personable, friendly, and I felt very comfortable talking to her about my dental/overall health. I’m usually skeptical of medical professionals, but she made me feel like I could let my guard down and be open. She was also very knowledgeable on many different alternatives I could take to improve my dental health. I had my x-rays/cleaning completed by Melinda. Melinda had great energy and was very pleasant to be around. She did an excellent job on my cleaning and was extremely thorough. I would also like to give a shout-out to the receptionists Daniela and Sasha. They both had amazing customer service and was available to answer any questions I needed. Daniela did a great job explaining my insurance break down and what I needed to do for my next visit. She also offered appointment cards as an extra resource to remind me about my upcoming appointments. Overall my experience at the Wellesley Dental Group was outstanding! They were kind, patient, and they listened to me. It was judgment free environment and I really appreciated that. I will be recommending anyone who is looking and I also recommend anyone who is reading this review and is considering trying them out! You will NOT be disappointed! When you go, ask for Dr. Famina and Melinda, again you will not be disappointed.

Elena Grankina Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Wellesley Dental Group for 5 years and never have I ever been disappointed with the services Dr Ali and his team are providing. I think of my dentist as of a trustworthy, honest and competent doctor, who has a great sense of humor - which is not less important to me. Being around people who think positive while you are in pain - what can be better:) Jokes aside, I would definitely recommend Wellesley Dental Group. My overall experience includes braces, crowns, veneers, wisdom teeth extractions as well as professional teeth cleaning on a regular basis. I've done it all! Very satisfied!

Fantastic experience: The staff is amazing, and very skilled. I started coming here years ago, and you couldn't pay me to switch to another practice! I'm moving away soon, and actually sad that I'll have to find a new dentist- you can't do much better than the people at Wellesley Dental Group.

MAL Published on Google

Negative experience: After a tooth crown appreciate being seen when pain appeared. However, not happy that doing the crown on Dr. Ali’s advice, did NOT solve the deeper issue. A root canal might be the least intrusive option with a chance for more.

Colleen Gordon Published on Google

Negative experience: Doctor and assistant were extremely unprofessional. We’re gossiping, flirting and discussing juvenile things while drilling cavities in my mouth. I was quite vulnerable as the patient and it felt as if they were not focused on me or what they were doing at all.

Haider Warraich Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I hadn't been to a dentist in a few years primarily because my last visit was so horrible. But my experience at Wellesley Dental was amazing! They made me actually look forward to my visits. The staff was very polite and accommodating. They left me super motivated to take better care of myself. So far I have been there for one superficial cleaning, 2 deep cleanings and a filling. Will be certain to go back regularly. They also had an oral surgeon look at my teeth even though he didn't have an opening. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I found this practice! I need a lot of reconstructive work following a traumatic accident that left me with a shattered jaw and broken teeth. They work with my medical team of maxillofacial surgeons to design a comprehensive plan to restore my teeth and smile. The doctors at Weston Dental Specialist Group are highly skilled professional, and friendly. I’m so appreciative for exceptional care I get at the Weston Dental Specialists Group.

Fantastic experience: Best dental experience EVER!!! I cannot put it into words. The staff is amazing, very knowledgeable and caring. The dentists are even better if there were anything better than amazing! My family relocated from out of state and landed in the perfect place! ❤️
