Ponemah Crossing Dental, P.C.

Experiencia fantástica: Jessica is professional and friendly!!!

Experiencia fantástica: As a new patient of Ponemah Crossing Dentistry I would like to compliment the warm friendly staff. I feel comfortable and well taken care of every time I enter the office and that is important to me.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been really happy with the changes under new ownership. The staff is friendly, the office feels welcoming, and the new doctor explains everything so well. I also had my first cleaning with an ultrasonic device. It made my cleaning so much more comfortable than what I am used to with the traditional hand scraping. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely stick with them. Highly recommend!!!

Experiencia negativa: All the staff and dentists who made this office's great reputation are no longer working there, having been replaced by the new owners. If you are looking for people you have been seeing for a decade, they're simply gone-- all of them -- and the current staff will smile and say they found new opportunities. Shame.

Experiencia negativa: The hygienist I had was very uncompromising. No bedside manners. Impatient with me when I was having films done. The staff with Dr Leighton were wonderful. I don't like the new people.

Experiencia fantástica: I had my first visit to a dentist in an an embarrassingly long time today at Ponemah Crossing Dentistry. The staff made me feel very comfortable, with no hint of shaming me for years of neglecting professional oral hygiene help. After full mouth X-rays and digital photos, Dr. B came in and went over every aspect of what he saw, showing me photos of my teeth as he explained. He suggested a very logical process that will occur over a series of visits, from descaling, periodontal exam, and repair of three broken teeth. I was provided with an estimate for the work that came in at the low end of the cost range that I surmised. All my questions, concerns and fears were respectfully and thoroughly addressed. The office is spacious, well lit, clean as can be, and the atmosphere is professional yet friendly. I am very pleased to find this office and to go forward with restoring and maintaining my oral health. If you are looking for a new dentist, don't hesitate to give these folks a try.

Experiencia fantástica: Just left Ponemah Crossing Dentistry . Very positive experience . Everyone is kind thoughtful and considerate. Dr explains things very clearly . Made me feel very comfortable. I suggest others to give it a try . I do not feel you will regret it .

Experiencia negativa: After nearly 25 years as a patient, I’m very disappointed with the recent changes at this practice. As of April 2026, Dr. Leighton and the entire longtime staff, including the hygienists, are gone, and the office is now under new ownership with a completely different approach. The difference in care is significant. Cleanings that were once thorough, unhurried, and done by hand over the course of an hour have been replaced with quick Cavitron-only cleanings that take just minutes. For patients with sensitive teeth or minimal buildup, this feels less comfortable and far less personalized. This practice used to stand out for its attention to detail and patient care. Unfortunately, that level of care is no longer there. Because of these changes, I’ve decided to switch to a different dental practice after many years of loyalty.

Experiencia fantástica: Very caring, very professional. The hygienist was super gentle

Experiencia fantástica: I am very picky about my dentist and have been to a few in the area, Ponemah Crossing Dentistry is the best! They are very thorough and gentle, and answer all of your questions (I have many lol). Would definitely recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to Ponemah Dental for 36 years and have always been treated with caring, and respect. As the director of a small private school, I referred many of my students’ families to this dental practice and they remained there as their children matured. Dr. Leighton is very skilled (the entire practice is very skilled and competent) and I would go to no other dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Great service from Laura Anne, she's the best!! Alison did a great pleasant job too.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently had a crown done with Dr Bashir and it was one of the best experiences I’ve had at the dentist! Not only did I receive an excellent fitting crown that looks and feels amazing, he and his staff were extremely caring and genuinely concerned with my comfort and wellbeing through the entire process! It’s great to know my dental health is in great hands with Dr. Bashir and his wonderful staff!!

Experiencia fantástica: Broke a tooth late Friday. Got an appointment Monday morning. Got a new top on my tooth lickety-spit... (oops... split). Great people. Great service.

Experiencia fantástica: All the staff here are friendly and knowledgeable. The best dental experience I’ve had!

Experiencia fantástica: Not a long wait. Nice to meet all the new office personnel and owner.

Experiencia fantástica: I was very pleased with Laurianne she did a absolutely wonderful job. I felt very comfortable with her.

Experiencia fantástica: Everything you could ask for in a dental office - punctual, a staff that is experienced, knowledgeable and personable, as well as a very nice and convenient facility.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a cleaning today with Linda it was her last day she is retiring she has always been gentle also met new Dentist he seems very nice was a good experienced.

Experiencia fantástica: I liked the different gizmo that auctioned out the water from cleaning. She had me "kiss" it often. Usually the water overwhelms me and I try to swallow it as it is so uncomfortable. This new method was better.

Experiencia fantástica: Another thorough check up with Ponemah Dental Associates! Thanks for all your years of care!

Experiencia fantástica: Always have a pleasant experience at my dentist. Everyone is friendly and accommodating.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Leighton and his staff are just the best!! We arrived in a transport chair for my 97-year-old mother. Someone came out and assisted with the door and offered water and coffee. The ladies at the heart of the main desk are super friendly, always smiling, and helpful. Georgette is a friendly presence who made my mother feel so welcomed and at ease. And Dr. Leighton is the most kind-hearted, caring dentist. My mother has been with this office for 40+ years, and these are just a few reasons why!

Experiencia fantástica: I recently broke my tooth on a Friday evening. I called the office after hours. They offered emergency services, which I did not require since I was not in pain. The office contacted me first thing Monday morning. Dr. Leighton was able to see me within a couple of hours. It turned out to be a crown that needed to replaced. Dr. Leighton made the repair and was done in no time and no pain! The staff is extremely helpful and pleasant. I am very at ease in their care.

Experiencia fantástica: Great practice! Consistent quality, friendly & welcoming care through all the years I have been a patient!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a patient of Dr.Leighton for years. Have been very happy with the work performed by himself and the Ponemah Crossing team of hygienists and the helpful office staff. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Always a pleasant experience. Great staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Great dental practice. A family member had a cracked tooth, and Dr Leighton came in on a Sunday to see us right away and got the ball rolling on the implant process! New tooth is perfect. A well run practice that cares about the patients. Kind and capable staff. You can see the same dentist and hygienist each time you go for cleanings, which is really nice.

Experiencia fantástica: The absolute BEST dental hygienist in NH! Laurianne is so caring and thoughtful...I have a bit of sensitivity to cold, so when she squirted water in my mouth I told her it was cold. She got up, got me a cup of warm water to rinse my mouth with for the remainder of my cleaning!!! She is awesome!

I’ve been seeing Laurianne since she joined the practice 17 years ago, and she goes out of her way to make sure my cleaning is as stress-free as possible.

Experiencia fantástica: I have gone to this practice since back in the 70's when it started. I am very pleased with the staff and the service.

Thank you all for starting my year off right!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Leighton and staff are wonderful. They truly care about their patients!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Ponemah Crossing Dental Practice and their entire team! I was always greeted with warm smiles and felt incredibly comfortable. The staff is incredibly professional and efficient, making the entire experience stress-free. Dr. Leighton is not only skilled and knowledgeable but also genuinely caring and takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. I'm so grateful to have found such an exceptional dental practice!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to this dental practice for decades. I feel lucky to be cared for by a small community-minded private practice rather than an office that answers to a corporate chain. My impression is that big chains tend to put profit above their clients. There has been relatively little turnover of staff and hygienists at Ponemah over the years, so they must appreciate working there.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a long time patient and they have always been professional and skilled.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff are always friendly, professional and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: The best dentist and staff I've had the pleasure to work with and know.

Experiencia fantástica: The entire team is amazing!!

Experiencia fantástica: The entire experience can be expressed as. . . competent staff, excellent dentist, and pleasant and welcoming personnel.

Experiencia fantástica: As a child I had a terrifying experience at the dentist and have never found a dentist that I found comfortable and safe with until I met Dr. Leighton. He showed me what a kind and GENTLE dentist is capable of doing in calming ones fears and intense anxieties. ALL of his staff is extremely courteous and kind and seem to have been there forever. This says to me that he treats them very well and that they are happy work for him, and that to me says a thousand more great words about Dr Leighton. This place rocks with kind souls !

Experiencia fantástica: Caring, friendly and extremely expert staff. Makes going to the Dentist easy!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a filing replaced by a newly graduated/hired dentist. The procedure went well and her and the assistant's "bedside manner" was supurb. Hopefully the dentistry will be a good...
