Fantastic and painless, I requested Dr. Sisel perform my filling without local anesthesia. Not only did he let me, but he performed it with absolutely no pain! Highly recommend as your new dental provider!

Was seen here twice. If you can even call it that. The first time the assistant gave up trying to get my x rays done because I am not an easy candidate with dental anxiety and a super tiny mouth. She had the doctor take an x ray which was fine except he did a poor job. Totally rushed it. Said the tooth was fine even though part of it literally decayed out. Said it wasn’t deep so I didn’t have to use Novocain. I went back for the filling got taken to the back relatively quickly but then got completely forgotten about for 45 minutes. No one checked in with me even after I expressed I was anxious and the assistant shrugged it off. I understand things happen and stuff takes time but it was very clear I was being ignored. Two assistants were in the room right next door gossiping and the doctor was in the back doing I’m not sure what but he was told I was waiting multiple times and still did not show up. I ended up leaving because I felt my time wasn’t valuable to them and that they were going to rush through it once I got seen. I went to a different dentist who I really trust and love and he said the x ray was unusable it was so blurry, which he showed it to me and the quality was awful. He also said he would require Novocain because the hole in my tooth was too deep to do it without. Shirlington dental did give me a discount on my first appointment which at the time seemed really nice and was a lot cheaper overall than this other practice but I fear that’s because they weren’t giving me as much effort. I also find it odd that there’s only good reviews here mostly from a long time ago when the practice has been open and packed for a long time. The front desk seemed good and maybe I just came on an off day but I will not be back and if you have dental anxiety I would not go here.

This is an excellent dentist's office! The staff is very professional and kind. There is free parking. It's very easy to get to. The view from their office is great. The office building looks new and modern. I highly recommend Shirlington Dental!

I’m new to the area and chose them. I couldn’t be happier. I caused some issues with my insurance and they were very patient to let me resolve it. Service and checkup was great. Highly recommend.

I recently moved to the area and had an absolutely terrible experience with another dentist. I came to Shirlington Dental for a second opinion after a recommendation from a colleague (the other dentist said I had six cavities that needed work even though I have no history of that level of problem). Dr. Sisel took time to look over the scans, explain what he was seeing (and what he thought the other dentist likely was seeing) and walk me through what he thought was needed, which turned out to be no work, and if anything just watching the few small spots. I so appreciated the transparency and honesty - I've found a new dentist, for sure!
