First, I have to say how understanding they were that I forgot about my appointment. They were extremely accommodating and offered me to still come in only later in the day. Also I met with Claire for a cleaning. She was exceptional! Very understanding and helpful with my gum issues. She shared a lot of great tips to help me with my at home dental regimen and gave me some free samples. The only downfall is that you have to pay out of pocket. But I have to say it’s worth it to receive the excellent care they provide. I will be going back.

I've been in the process of having some extensive dental work done, and as much as I do not enjoy having the work done, I feel that I'm in good hands at RI Periodontics. Both Dr. Katz and
Dr. Pham are very knowledgeable and thoroughly explained what needed to be done. Also, if I started feeling any pain, they made sure to give me more anesthesia to keep me numb. In addition, the dental hygienists and office staff have been compassionate and helpful as well. I would recommend anyone needing periodontal care, to visit RI Periodontics.

Dr. Katz has performed two procedures on my husband who states unequivocally that "Dr. Katz is in the upper echelons of his dental pantheon." He is a truly gentle, caring, and knowledgeable practitioner who takes the time to thoroughly explain his treatment plan. He is awesome; cannot lavish enough praise on him!
