Atlas Dental Specialists

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental Specialists are the absolute best. I have many issues with my jaw. Limited opening and fixed bite. I have 2 Specialists that work with me and I only schedule with them. The care, compassion, knowledge, experience that I receive is far above what I ever expected. I highly recommend Atlas Dental Specialists for any dental needs you may need.

Experiencia fantástica: My hygienist, Gina, is fantastic. Caring and very knowledgeable too. Dr Kasey is also amazing! She took her time to explain a few things to me and put me at ease. Definitely best office.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough good things about Atlas Dental. I've been with them for a number of years and their service is excellent and their staff are top of the line in every regard. They are the ultimate professionals in their field and I have recommended them to a number of my friends and co-workers. I would never consider going anywhere else. They have dental insurance available, which helps a lot and they are most accommodating to any situation or need you may have. They always greet me with a smile and will make yours look GREAT.

Experiencia fantástica: I have never been to a dental office that is filled with so much respect and patience. From the moment you walk in you are just treated so nicely! Everything was explained in detail to me and I felt heard when voicing my concerns and previous experiences. I am excited to begin my treatment plan here.

Experiencia negativa: I came here on a friend’s recommendation. The office itself is very modern and polished, but it’s located in a rundown building. To leave the office, you actually have to call or text an elevator repair person to bring the elevator to your floor, which is pretty inconvenient. There’s also no parking, and they don’t validate garage parking, so you’re paying out of pocket just to attend your appointment. At my first visit, they ran a full assessment using their high-tech scanners, and the doctor came in afterward. The doctor was pleasant enough...no warmth or humor, but that didn’t bother me. What did bother me was that no actual care was provided. The model seems to be: assess you, give you a cleaning, then send you on your way with a “plan.” After the visit, I started getting texts about all the things I could do and all the cleanings I could schedule. I booked a follow-up appointment and asked what would actually be done at that visit. I was told they’d do another cleaning and then “see what happens.” Even after a full initial assessment, there was still no clarity about what treatment I actually needed or would receive. On the day of my second appointment, I was called in to work unexpectedly (I’m a nurse) and needed to reschedule. I called at 8:00 AM for a 1:00 PM appointment (six hours’ notice) and was immediately charged a $50 missed visit fee. Apparently, even that amount of notice isn’t acceptable. As others have mentioned, this place feels like a money machine and seems best suited for office workers popping in on a lunch break. Unfortunately, my experience was frustrating from start to finish, and I won’t be returning.

Experiencia fantástica: New to Pittsburgh and had to find a dentist quickly to manage a pressing issue. I had a couple recommendations for Atlas and I feel like I really lucked out. They have been truly great to work with. I’ve had the opportunity to work with 2 hygienists and 2 different doctors there, and all of them have been top notch !

Experiencia fantástica: I am very satisfied with my whole experience at the office with doctors, assistance and clerical staff being attentive and kind. Especialy, I am very appreciative to doctor Mara and the front desk person Eva.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and caring dentist, attuned to the needs of patients. I always get a great cleaning and they've done a quality job on a tooth reconstruction for the front tooth I broke as a child. Highly recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: I enjoy coming to this practice. The dentists and assistants are so sweet and helpful. They always make every visit very comfortable.

Experiencia fantástica: I visited Atlas after putting off work I really needed from a head I took to the face. The vibes are pretty spot on. I have a lot of anxiety around the dentist; cliché I know, but it’s true. I gotta say, everyone here is so chill, I don’t *want* to have to come back, but I don’t mind it to be honest, and that’s a win as far as I’m concerned. Seriously, they’re incredibly down to earth, kind people. I don’t think I review a lot of things, but felt like this one was very warranted since this is how I chose them.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is always friendly, office very clean, staff knows their job duties and does a great job cleaning my teeth and x-rays. They are very knowledgeable and answers all of my questions. Stacie Ballard always introduces me to the new staff. I recommend this practice to everyone.

Experiencia fantástica: I love my dentist ft Schock, she is very professional and very gentle. Always friendly and attentive staff. Also very cool modern equipment!

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental Specialists is an amazing office. The staff is friendly, professional, and makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. The dental team takes time to explain everything and truly cares about their patients. The office is clean, welcoming, and well organized. I highly recommend Atlas Dental Specialists for anyone looking for excellent dental care.

Experiencia fantástica: I've always had a great experience at Atlas. All the staff and doctors are great, especially Dr. Mara Mangini, and I always feel comfortable and at ease. Thanks!

Experiencia fantástica: Adding on to my review from years ago: I am still going to Atlas Dental, even when they were not part of my dental insurance at a previous job. They're THAT good. I have dreaded the dentist my entire life. I avoided going for YEARS (do not recommend) following college and then finally summoned the courage to find a new dentist and actually get a cleaning. From the moment you sign in, everyone is kind and welcoming. Every member of the staff has a great bedside manner, and they make recommendations without being forceful. I truly will not go anywhere else! Adding on to my review from several years ago - I have continued to utilize Atlas Dental for all of my dental needs and I cannot say enough good things about their professionalism and incredible service. Even though I don't work downtown anymore, I still won't go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the first office to actually help me with my jaw pain! Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Had multiple fillings done with Dr. Steven and never had any complaints. If my bite felt off he’d check to make sure it wasn’t and adjust if needed. Great place! This is an addition to my review, recent went in for a cleaning and was just amazed at the professionalism ands kindness across the board w/ their dentist! I also always appreciate the advice of their dentist. - B.F.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred to Dr. Mara and Dr. Nick for a complex problem. Dr. Mara is a perfectionist who cares deeply about both functionality and aesthetics. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional, making me feel comfortable, not just like another patient. They were thorough in answering all my questions. I trust them completely with my dental health and highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic service. Friendly, warm, and professional! My parents, adult children and coworkers all go there now too based on my recommendation and everyone has been very happy with the service.

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist. Uses latest equipment, short wait times, and great customer service/patient care.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly, professional, and timely service. Everything was explained in a very easy to understand manner.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone in the office is so pleasant. I love coming to this dentist so much, I may just sleep with candy in my mouth for the next 30 days. Best dental office ever!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Mara is the best! The office & staff are very nice & efficient! They are always patient and kind!

Experiencia fantástica: I woke up in pain due to my old filling coming out. Thank God they were able to get me in that same day. Very friendly atmosphere and staff. I would definitely recommend Atlas Dental. They're sufficient and I'm glad I chose Atlas. I'm glad I recommended it to others. They're happy they chose Atlas as well!

Experiencia fantástica: Great dental care and a wonderful friendly staff!

Experiencia fantástica: I have the best experiences at Atlas Dental. Drs. Nick and Mara are the best and I am comfortable with any procedure with them. From a check up to getting implants. The hygienists are also very good. I highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Mara and her assistantTerry are very special and thoughtful people who make their patients comfortable while performing their craft. They truly care about their patients. You will not find a better dentistry office anywhere. Their staff including Robin and Eve always make you feel at home. It is a long drive for me to get to their office but totally worth it. When I leave their office I just smile. Thank you! Tom

Experiencia fantástica: Angela is an absolute gem. She makes going to the dentist a pleasure.

Experiencia fantástica: Best staff and I was happy to hear they are moving soon!

Experiencia fantástica: My favorite dentist, I always look forward to going! They’re always very careful whenever I need a filling (numbing agents don’t work as effectively on me) which makes my experience so much easier. I also love the hygenists, they’re all so kind! Dr. Mara did my crowns and they look like I grew them myself!

Experiencia fantástica: I've done several fillings and 2 crowns with Atlas (Dr. WanWan Zhang, and Dr. Schock) and had a great experience every time I went. It's the clinic I come to assured I'm in good hands and will receive the best treatment. They have modern equipment and competent personnel with great bedside manner.

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental really came to my rescue when I had a toothache. The team was able to see me and take care of the issue ASAP. Thank you to both Dr. Komal, Dr. Grace and the entire staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Though I've just started my journey from rotten teeth to dentures, so far this place has been amazing! The entire staff were professional, kind, fun! I've always been petrified of dentists, but I felt comfortable in their capable hands. They're coming up with a plan that works FOR me! My first visit consisted of x-rays, exam & a lot of explaining of future procedures. I'm already quite impressed with them. Looking forward to feeling & looking better.

Experiencia fantástica: Always super nice and professional. Scheduling and rescheduling is also a breeze.

Experiencia fantástica: When my long-time dentist decided to move farther away I made the switch to Atlas. I was very impressed! The office is well staffed and they have a very thought out system. Since it was my first appointment with them they did all the x-rays, scans, etc. and it felt very thorough. The staff was friendly and everything the said and did felt well explained!

Experiencia fantástica: Two days ago I had a 2pm appt for a check up and cleaning. It was all I could ask for. 1st, Angela, the hygienist, came to the lobby for me promptly at 2. 2nd, the time with Angela was a pleasure. She is efficient, polite and friendly. 3rd check in and check out were effortless. And that is how all my appointments at Atlas go. I am very happy with the service I get and the people with whom I interact. I make a strong recommendation of Atlas for anyone looking for a dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: Great and knowledgeable dental staff with great equipment. Everyone from the technicians & dentists to the receptionists were friendly, courteous, and efficient.

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental is an excellent dental office. Their staff is very friendly and eager to assist. They have the latest technology to ensure top flight dental care. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. S and staff have been so patient and understanding with my daughter who has extreme phobia of going to the dentist. She has come along way since becoming a patient at Atlas ❤️❤️❤️

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental is the best dentist we’ve ever had. Communicative, great patient services, and easy to schedule with. I highly recommend them!

Experiencia fantástica: We’re new to Pittsburgh and weren’t sure how to choose a dentist. Our former dentist suggested we call endodontists in the area and ask for a recommendation, since they see work by different practices. The name that came up twice was Atlas, and after my first visit, I think we’ve made the right choice! Everyone I encountered was friendly, professional, and on point - but most importantly, Dr. Shaikh didn’t rush or dismiss me as I asked thorough questions about a minor issue I was having. I’m excited for my husband’s upcoming appointment with Dr. Nick!

Experiencia fantástica: Good dentist in town. There aren’t many left in the city, and these guys are top notch.

Experiencia fantástica: Organized and thorough. Well trained and knowledgeable staff. Drs Schock and Shaikh were truly professional in their upbeat manner and attitude. My molar extraction was painless! No more dental anxiety. I have a very high confidence level with them and the team. They will handle any of my future dental work!

Experiencia fantástica: From reception to the hygienist, the staff is well put together and accommodating making for a painless -- physically and mentally -- experience resulting in a thorough cleaning. Dr. Mara has been detailed about and helpful through orthodontia.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing place for Dental/TMJ issues. Staff is incredibly friendly and very understanding. It seems like a big family here.

Experiencia fantástica: Exceptional, expert care at every level. The space is comfortable, modern and above all immaculate. I had my first ever crown placed and I felt informed and well taken care of. Thank you to the entire staff.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with Atlas dental! Would highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: The staff at Atlas Dental, from the dentists to the hygienists and front desk, are always very kind and perceptive. They put your mind at ease in a place that can make a lot of us feel vulnerable. I started going here based on a recommendation from friends and I would share the same sentiment to anyone seeking a great, truthful and qualified dental office.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a patient for several years and have referred others, too. Really nice folks and makes going to the dentist… not so bad!

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is friendly and helpful. The dental work itself was quick and painless. Very efficient team at Atlas!

Experiencia fantástica: I had an extremely positive experience with Atlas Dental and everyone interacted with me. Cleanliness, staff friendliness and cost were all great. I would recommend them for sure.

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental Specialists have been taking care of my teeth for more than 15 years. The dental chair is not my favorite place to be, but Dr. Mara Mangini has eased me through crowns, replacement fillings, and recently Invisalign therapy for crowded teeth. Dr. Mara approaches every dental challenge with confidence, excellent patient education, and her fun sense of humor. The staff are always friendly but also very professional. I live in Downtown Pittsburgh, and whenever a Downtown resident is seeking a new dental practice I refer them to Atlas Dental.

Experiencia fantástica: I love my dentist. If I ever move away from Pittsburgh, I would make sure that I could come back for any of my dental needs. They’re that good. Last week one of my caps came off while flossing . Making an appointment to have it put back on was easy and today I’m less than 30 minutes I no longer look like a hockey player. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, it’s just not me. My teeth are whole again just in time for a virtual job interview where I can feel free to smile. Thank you again Atlas John

Experiencia fantástica: Been going there since they opened. The people are great, accommodating, very nice. If it ain't right they'll make it right.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff was very friendly from the time I checked in to the time I left and the Dr. and associated help was great I highly recommend Atlas Dental!

Experiencia fantástica: Hey there! I just wanted to share how absolutely wonderful my recent dental visit to Atlas Dental was. Angela, my hygienist, is truly fantastic! She did such a thorough and gentle job cleaning my teeth – they feel incredibly fresh and sparkling clean now. What I really appreciate is how she always takes the time to offer practical and personalized advice on the best products to use. Her recommendations are always spot-on and genuinely help me maintain excellent oral health between appointments. It's so reassuring to know I'm getting expert guidance. Feeling great about my smile, all thanks to Angela's and Dr. Mangini’s amazing care!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic dental services and a cool office! Very convenient for those working downtown or live nearby. Dr. Schock did an excellent job with my filling and works very quickly. I could barely feel anything and the filling was very smooth and matched the natural surface of the tooth perfectly. My hygienist was also great to work with and did excellent work. I also like the fluoride treatment they use too, it's less sticky and irritating than others I've had.

Experiencia fantástica: Always patient when doing x-rays! Wonderful staff they always explain rhe procedures etc

Experiencia fantástica: The staff at Atlas Dental are always friendly and welcoming. I always leave with a smile.

Experiencia fantástica: Second time here and the service is actually awesome and thorough with nice, patient workers. I told everyone at work they need to make their appointment here and one already has!

Experiencia fantástica: Had my new patient visit with Atlas today and a great consultation with my new dentist. I recently had to switch because my former dentist left downtown and Atlas made it super easy to transfer and accept my patient history.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing 1st experience. The set up was quick and easy. I called them on a Friday and they were able to get me in on a Monday. The staff was amazing. The dental assistant kind and experienced and the doctor made me feel comfortable and very knowledgeable. This will be my permanent dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: I completely trust the expertise, the craft, and the care of the staff at Atlas Dental Specialists! I’ve had the pleasure of being treated at the Shadyside location and they’ve just been super! I’ve been very impressed by both Prosthodontists: Dr. Mara Mangini and Dr. Nick Mangini! Check out their ‘about’ info on their webpage! Dr. Mara and Dr. Nick are very impressive and both genuine and exceptional! Furthermore, their staff members are always warm and helpful; also experts! A real know-how team! To name a few: Judy at the front desk is welcoming and thorough and seems to know how to take care of everything! Derek, a dental assistant is so professional and great at his job, he should be a dentist! Sam, the dental hygienist is simply the best! She cleans and examines every detail relative to oral health care and doesn’t make you feel bad if you’re not flossing as much as you should. Natalie, the office manager was so very helpful with an insurance issue. She listened and took charge of the matter and followed it all the way through. The entire team at the Shadyside Office is terrific! The Atlas practice isn’t even in my insurance network and I’d still not go anywhere else but Atlas for my dental needs!

Experiencia fantástica: I had excellent care today from the six staff at Atlas Dental that I dealt with today! They were all amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, and caring. The office is comfortable and beautiful! I recommend Atlas Dental for all of your dental needs.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been using Atlas for many years and have never had a bad experience. The doctors and all their staff are always friendly, engaging, and professional. I also love the downtown location.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been a patient for less than a year having just moved to Pittsburgh. I was fortunate to find this practice. Everyone from the font desk staff to the hygienists and dentists are very personable and professional. I would highly recommend. I like that you can have everything done in one place...dentistry and oral surgeon. They even make crowns right in the office lessening the time for your dental needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas Dental Specialists are the best! My dentist merged his practice with them shortly before he retired, and the transition to my new dentist was seamless.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is very accommodating and kind. The space is clean and well run- I recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a patient at Atlas Dental for several years, and every visit confirms why I continue to trust them with my dental care. The staff is always exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and professional, making each appointment a positive experience. The office itself is bright, modern, and spotless, with state-of-the-art technology that ensures both comfort and efficiency. It’s clear they care deeply about their patients and the quality of care they provide. I can’t recommend Atlas Dental highly enough!

Experiencia fantástica: I I feel that the staff and Dr. Mira are excellent at Atlas Dental! I’ve never had a bad experience! They are very knowledgeable and they offer me services. I didn’t know we’re available.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Grace and the staff are terrific. I transfered to Atlas when my previous dentist retired. I've been blown away with their attention to details and professionalism. I couldn't be happier with my choice.

Experiencia fantástica: I am soooo appreciative of the individualized focus and attention to my dental health that I bring a Thank You Dentist-related Comic each time. I started with Atlas because my prior dentist for the last 25 years retired and highly recommended this great new office; I have had no regrets. I have even been so impressed that I decided to invest in Invisalign so I can even have a nicer smile! Their collective patience and expertise has been -- and will continue to be -- much appreciated.

Experiencia fantástica: I've always been afraid of the dentist, until now. This was the best experience I have ever had. Their kindness and compassion was calming and I remained soothed through the entire procedure.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone here is super friendly and attentive, from the reception staff to the hygenists and dentists. They have a nice space downtown, and it's always welcoming. They also have super easy scheduling tools to make it convenient to schedule and move appointments. Dr Mara is awesome! Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: They clearly do a very thorough job here. High tech equipment that I certainly had never come across with my previous dentists. Getting a 3D image of your bite is very cool. Staff is very friendly, and the hygienists and dentists do a very good job of explaining everything. I would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I moved to Pittsburgh about 18 months ago and one of the smartest things I did was get Atlas on my health care team. I have had veneers for over 20 years so I was looking for someone experienced in them. The team at Atlas are amazing, very experienced, and have been super good at proactive care and communication. Highly recommended!! I'm grateful to have them on my health care team! ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: They’ve been my dentist for over 20 years! The best team ever! From the front office staff, to the hygienists to the doctors .. STELLAR in taking care of not only my dental care but also my family’s.

Experiencia fantástica: The dentists are super gentle & don't do unnecessary interventions! Defintiely recommend for anyone with a fear of dentists.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had great experience with all the staff here! They are always able to work me into the schedule.

Experiencia fantástica: Atlas acquired the dental practice I had been with for many years. Since that time, they have done an excellent job with the dental work and hygiene services I've used there. My former dentist would be proud.

Experiencia fantástica: Started going here after my dentist retired and i couldn’t find another one that i felt comfortable with. Everyone here is amazing and takes the best care of their patients. Very flexible with appointments too!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent dental practice! Latest technologies and tools. Superb staff from receptionist to hygienist to specialist. Spouse had a crown replaced and it was done in a single reasonably short visit. I had a filling replaced and that went efficiently and pretty painlessly. Quality of work in both cases was excellent. Attractive, convenient office, too. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Consistently excellent in all aspects of dental care - thank you Atlas Dental team

Experiencia fantástica: They take there time with you and explain everything and how much money it cost and try to get you financially percent, But I couldn't afford the work going to be done,A real shame cause I wanted to smile with teeth that didn't come out, Good Dental place,Thank you,For trying to help me,

Experiencia fantástica: I Mr Biff Austin enjoy going to Atlas Dental because it is easy to get to and everyone is very nice there and the office is always very clean and they are always very professional and helpful

Experiencia fantástica: The staff and doctors are great here. They always do their best to make you feel comfortable. My husband hadn’t been to the dentist in some time and so we made him an appointment. He was really happy with his experience and said they helped him feel better about going on a regular basis. Great dentist to visit.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently had a filling replaced at the Shadyside location. The service and TLC at this office is fantastic! The dentist and hygienist truly care about my dental health. The front desk folks feel like family and even helped me run the numbers to make a plan for taking care of things I have been putting off for years. Highly recommend all around!

Experiencia fantástica: Having just moved to the Pittsburgh area, Atlas Dental specialist got me in quickly as a new patient and everyone was so kind! The office was clean and I felt really welcomed once I arrived. I’m happy I made Atlas Dental my new dentist here in Pittsburgh!

Experiencia fantástica: Have had a complete and total fear of the dentists and the hygienists here are 10/10! Highly recommend if you’ve been avoiding the dentist and need a safe place to start!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Nick and all the technicians and front desk staff are wonderful. Honest, upfront, and very friendly and professional. I have gone to them for years and have had lots of intense dental work done!

Experiencia fantástica: Always appreciate the care that I receive at Atlas Dental Specialists. Angela is so professional and makes a cleaning a good experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Their are dentist and then their is Atlas Dental. They care about the person as well as your teeth. They are like family always there to help you.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was so pleasant and my hygienist Was Really good!! She took her time with me & I really appreciated the care..

Experiencia fantástica: No waiting and the office is managed efficiently. The technology is impressive, and the staff is extremely courteous.

Experiencia fantástica: I think this place is great. I had a cavity taken care of yesterday, and I literally almost fell asleep in the chair as they were working on it. If that doesn’t tell you that they’re good and make you comfortable, I’m not sure what will. Or maybe I need some more Zzzzzzz’s at night ha! Happy to call this my dentist in Pittsburgh! 10/10.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone in the office was extremely nice, caring, and professional. Dr. Schock is amazing and I highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: My experiences with Atlas Dental Specialists have been absolutely wonderful. Everyone there is amazing. I've had some "not so good" experiences at other places and Atlas has taken very good care of me from day one. I can't say enough about the team that they have. They truly care!

Experiencia fantástica: I haven't gone in yet that will happen this month. BUT that said so far they have been amazing when talking with them. Eve actually makes me feel like my mouth situation is important and that's wayyy more than almost every other office I was in contact with. I'm very anxious about dentist visits but Eve has been more than awesome and I am actually looking forward to going. Thank you for everything. Just you trying for me means the world.

Experiencia fantástica: The practice is very friendly and professional. Amazingly well organized practice and strictly following COVID-19 mitigation measures. The office is attractive and is in a good downtown location. I leave the office feeling informed about my dental health and confident about my care. State-of- the-art dentistry with digital imaging, computer-aided-design of crowns, and the best trained dentists, hygienists, and assistants! This is an August 2024 update on my previous post. Everything still holds true. Only want to add that I had some new work done by "Dr. Mara" and she was wonderful. She is a perfect blend of technical skill and artistry. I left the office feeling better and looking better. February 2025 update: I am still amazed about how professional and personable everyone is at this office. The dental care is state-of-the-art, and their proactive advice is always helpful. Update August 2025. Atlas remains the top choice for dental care. The dentists and hygienists are very skilled and perform a comprehensive exam, communicate well with the patients, and are friendly. The clerical staff is always friendly, professional, and efficient.
