Dr. O and her staff are the best!! Dr. O explained to me what to watch out for, what she recommended replacing and why. Honestly, she’s the best dentist I’ve ever had. Also I LOVE being able to text the staff to change my appt and send me insurance info. Huge help.

Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry of DC - Arousha Jahangiri DDS Patient Rosario G. My first visit to the Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry of DC - Arousha Jahangiri DDS was great. Almost immediately of my arrival, I was taken by the Hygienist Danielle to the dental cubicle, she was professional and kind, with great sense of humor -we shared a good laugh. Danielle did a great job! After the cleaning and X-rays Dr. Arousha Jahangiri began the evaluation of my teeth, she dictated the description of each tooth with deep knowledge. Afterwards, Dr. Jahangiri kindly made the recommendations for my treatment, established cost and timeline. She was truly clear and precise, love her academic style. I recommend her practice. It is great to find a dental practice with high performance standards. Dr. Arousha Jahangiri has an excellent team Jose, Patient Coordinator, is kind a personable, and Debbie, the Plan Coordinator professional and to the point. Excellent experience!!!

I had such a great experience here and would highly recommend Dr. J and her team to others. Everyone was incredibly kind, organized, and efficient. They also email you new patient forms and COVID forms ahead of time for you to complete, which streamlines the check-in process for new patients. They're also very transparent about costs.

I've gone to Advanced Cosmetic and General Dentistry since I moved to DC and have been very pleased with their services. I found them via Google Maps because they were close to my job and they have been exceedingly flexible in terms of working with my schedule. Extremely well-run, friendly, and competent team. The entire team is very professional, the environment is well maintained, and I felt confident in the work done across the board. Special shout-out to Sandy who has gone above and beyond!

Dr. J is absolutely amazing!!! The entire staff was so kind (shout out to Jose and Gani), and the offices are beautiful. After a year of poor dental work from a separate dentist, I found Dr. J online and couldn't be happier. She was able to understand my complex case involving multiple temporary crowns and provide solutions in real time. She created a new temporary crown and left me with a beautiful smile after the first visit, and even worked around my schedule when I had to leave for a work meeting. Dr. J is not only warm, direct, and knowledgeable, but she is also a perfectionist, which is exactly what you want in a dentist. I will never go anywhere else!

I have been going here for 2 years. I came to this dentist because of all of the reviews, please keep in mind that they do ask you to write reviews at the visit. She instructed me I needed a filling, major dental surgery, a root canal and a crown on my very back molar due to unusual decay between my teeth. I had to wait until I could take some time from work, but had the awful surgery ( about a year later) then went to a specialist a few months after for the root canal, ( as they instructed) went back to her office for the final crown immediately after the root canal ( again, as they instructed to come right after the root canal) - It did not fit. They blamed me having the instructed root canal, (lol) , This was the very end of June, when she first re-opened the office from the Covid shutdown. When I went to reschedule for my corrected crown placement, since they messed up the first one, I told the receptionist I would be leaving the city during the pandemic and I had to come before I left in the next two weeks- She argued with me that I couldn't get in and they were completely booked. I was very annoyed and upset but I had bigger concerns at the time. I am now back in the city a few months later, went in as soon as I got back to DC- and again the crown didn't fit. The dentist started yelling at me and told me she will no longer do my crown (even though it has been paid for) . She was beyond unprofessional. after MANY excuses of why the crown wouldn't fit, ( one of them was that the cusp of the tooth above it was long now, which they have told me that might be a problem on at least 10 occasions in the past) her last resort was accusing me of being rude to her staff- I stopped and asked the staff if I had been rude- he said "NO" and apologized to me on the way out after hearing this nasty women completely lose it on me. She told me she's not doing it anymore and the relationship has been terminated. She has serious mental issues. At one point she got in my face and started asking me exactly where I was the past few months, and went off saying she just doesn't have the time, and she needs to get home to their family and she is now closed. . It was the WORST healthcare experience I have ever had in 30 years. I have never had any issues with a single healthcare provider or dentist before this. Good thing I have a lot of dental records from all of the work I had done already, and a lot of good friends friends who know me and are willing to help me fight this. If she does not refund me so I can go to someone who is capable of doing a crown, I will be taking this awful women to court! Everyone has bad days, I get that- But this was another level. I am reporting her for this behavior. It was absolutely insane and no one should have to go through that. I turned my phone on voice memo recording before she completely lost it on me. so at least I have a voice recording of her behavior and everything she told me incase she tries to fudge the records ( I wouldn't put it past her) - I have a lot of scans and X rays that I will be submitting to the dental board for review based off everything she told me on my voice recording of the conversation. I understand the pandemic has affected people's mental health, but this was one for the books! I would not go here for anything cosmetic. They are not capable of performing anything difficult and try to blame YOU when they can not do the work they charged you for already.

We certainly value our customers responses and we are sorry to hear your experience wasn’t as expected. Unfortunately, due to your extended delay of over 2 years on treatments recommended by us at your September 2018 appointment , you have had complications for your treatment. We try our best but delays of this long do change the course and prognosis of any treatment. We strive to continuously improve our communication skills with all of our patients, and we wish you well. -Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry of DC

I am so excited I found my new dentistry!!! I was referred here by a friend who saw Dr. Oriani as her primary dentist and I cannot say enough positive things! Jose called me shortly after I requested the appointment online and made the whole process super quick and simple. I was warmly greeted, again by Jose, and was seen quickly after I arrived! Being a hairstylist in DC and understanding how serious sanitation and safety precautions are, I felt comfortable and safe with all of their Covid procedures. Victoria, my dental hygienist was SO kind, answered all of my questions thoroughly and incredibly pleasant to work with. Dr. Oriani is the perfect combination between professional and personable. Totally NOT her first rodeo, she was so knowledgeable and I felt confident in booking my next appointment knowing I’d have a consistent experience in the future! I don’t always love going to the dentist but this entire team particular is the bees knees.

My dentist wasn't seeing any patients, and I am pregnant and due in 4 weeks and broke a tooth that was very sensitive. They were so caring and professional, they sent me a letter to forward to y OBGYN and get a clearance 1st, which I really appreciated it . and then got me in asap to fix the broken tooth and got me pain free and anxiety free for the birth of our child . can't say enough about how much I appreciate their help. and how efficient they were .

Let me start by saying that when I first visited this practice, I extensively explained to Dr Jahangari and two of her staff members that I am a legally blind individual and that I do not drive. In fact, I chose the practice mainly for convenience since they are metro accessible. I went into detail and explained to her that there are times when my vision is extremely bad, and I can’t predict when this occurs, so I may be delayed or need to cancel. My treatments started in 2017 and I left today (May 2020), looking like I need braces, teeth still badly misaligned. When I first inquired about Invisalign at this practice, Dr Jahangari requested me to remove my four wisdom teeth before starting the process. I then had three of my wisdom teeth removed (the fourth apparently did not need to be extracted). This cost me $2300. I then went back to her office and at that time, I guess she displayed an ” alter ego”. She appeared to be of a sweet disposition. I paid for the cost of the treatment upfront - $5000 (paid in two installments) and the treatments began. Over the course of my treatments, I have had 2 corneal transplants, 7 other eye procedures and two C-Sections. I understand that things got hectic and Dr Jahangari herself said to me, we will work with you. The Invisalign treatments were not working well. I have photo evidence along the course of my treatments, along with the advice of two other dentists, that informed me that I should not have been an Invisalign candidate in the first place. After showing her a picture of someone with great results, she said to me “your teeth looks “better” than when you came in, an ortho would have been able to make it look like this.” (referring to the picture). I couldn’t believe my ears. In other words, she knew she should have just referred me to an orthodontist upfront. On one occasion, I was 6 minutes late, Dr Jahangari sent her assistant/office manager or whoever she was (older lady) to let me know that the only how she would see me that day was If I paid her a missed appointment fee. I was there with my two babies and so frustrated that I just paid the money. Today, after giving birth two months ago and undergoing three eye procedures, she demanded I pay $500 extra to receive a third set of refinements, when clearly the treatments aren’t working. I know times are hard these days with this Covid-19 pandemic, but she wouldn’t even offer a resolution/solution - I even asked her to check with my insurance to see if they could work something out and she didn’t even try. My problem is the manner in which she came at me. She was so hostile and combative and kept raising her voice. I couldn’t get a word in as she was very dismissive and was like “you either pay the money upfront or I’m gonna go see my next patient.” She kept blaming me for the treatments not working after I alerted her to the fact that she should have just referred me to to the right doctor upfront. I got up and left and she followed me to the door like brazen brat and continued hollering about why it’s my fault when she knows that she wasn’t the best possible doctor for the treatment I needed. This is the worsttt experience I’ve ever had from a medical professional. WORD OF ADVICE - Do research on the best possible type of doctor for your treatments - Seek out someone who is patient with their patients and knows how to be emphatic - not sympathetic - Seek someone with a genuine willingness to produce great results and happy patients/customers, not someone who seems like they need the money more than you.

M G, Thank you for your feedback. We certainly value our customers responses as it helps us sustain viability in this electronic world. You keep referring to your medical issues as a reason for not coming to your appointments- but all we needed from you was communication. You would cancel many appointments, or be late and disappear for months, with no communication to our office-then you lost or misplaced and threw away aligners and when your aligner that was supposed to be worn 2 weeks would break- you wanted to be seen as an emergency ASAP . We have been very accommodating for all of your needs, including multiple refinements at no charge. We even made an exception to get you in -during the COVID closures because your tray had broken. Your treatment should have taken 1 year ,not 3 years- M G it is unfortunate that you have decided to go the slanderous route and write us a 1-star review- even though we have always provided the best dental care your you. We wish you nothing but the best at your new dental office. Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry

First and foremost - GLADYS the woman who often works the reception desk is an angel from heaven!!! She is s patient and a whiz with insurance companies and all the issues that come with them. She is just so lovely and I cannot say enough about her. She has been so helpful in getting my dental care on track. I actually see Dr. Hyder at this office for my dental work. He has been so patient with me - someone who HATES going to the dentist and holding my jaw open.He explains thigns thoroughly, makes sure you are good and numb before any procedure, and he is honestly the BEST dentist I've visited int he past. Everyone int his office is warm lovely and fun. Highly recommend this office to anyone.

Would give 0 stars. First, requested previous dental records. After they were sent by a previous dentist, they pretended to never receive them - needed a manager to locate them in their inbox. Front staff do not know what they're doing. Then, the hygienist barely listened to my concerns or my dental history. She kept bumping and scraping my teeth "accidentally" while cleaning, with zero apology or concern about JUST HAVING TOLD HER my teeth are fragile and break easily. Next, the dentist tried to upsell me and gave me outrageous numbers for cosmetic work, claiming it was "heavily discounted." She quoted me 4x what the next dentist quoted me. Insane. Then, she claimed that two of my fillings and a crown needed to be repaired or updated. TWO OTHER DENTISTS completely denounced that claim and said that was entirely unnecessary, saving me THOUSANDS. Finally, I was billed an outrageous number FOR A CLEANING that is usually 100% covered by insurance. Took several calls for the front staff and accounting staff to get their numbers straight and remove the charges. Do NOT see them unless you want to waste your money.

My hygienist Vicky was amaazing and Dr.J was so friendly and professional and she spent a lot of time explaining all my 3 options for me on detail with all the positives and negatives.

I found Dr J based on a recommendation of a coworker, and she was so kind and friendly ans explained everything in detail to me, even convinced me to do the less expensive option because its better for my tooth and more conservative. I was going to get 8 veneers based on another dentists recommendation, she rec 6 month invisalign to straighten my tooth that bothers me, and some fillings and only 4 veneers to give me the smile i want with out shaving all my teeth down for veneers at such a young age. I highly recommend her.

THIS PLACE HAS GONE DOWN THE DRAIN. My wife and I have been clients of Dr. J for 8 years but that has ended as of today. I made a complaint on her receptionist two weeks ago and today Dr. J lashed out on my wife and I. In the beginning her practice was very professional with the exception of a gossip-like environment and a snarky, and rude receptionist (blonde with glasses). But we stayed with her despite our one hour drive because we loved her. After tolerating a poor crown that is already deteriorating within the few months which the "porcelain" is turning silver! Since Dr, J has expanded her practice she has become unprofessional, and confrontational with a smile. She once had "family" environment but you can clearly see the difference in her bedside manner. Today she even called me a different name despite me being her client for 8 years and "knowing" me.She even supports her rude staff when they are wrong. Today Dr. J called me a liar and was clearly emotional instead of caring and professional. I will never re-turn nor refer. Why should I support a business that is now far removed from customer services quality, rapport and integrity,

Reply from Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry of DC
In the 5 years you have been patients in our practice we have been very accommodating to you. We have always seen you-even when you would show up late or forgotten your appointments. We waived numerous broken appointments for you. With a total 15 broken appointments between the two of you we have to stand our ground on this one. You need to respect our time, and that of our other patients. My staff was only upholding our office policy.

Top-notch, high quality dental practice. Really friendly staff, excellent cleaning, professional examination. Not their fault, but the elevators in the building are INSANELY slow. I’ll definitely be taking the stairs for my next appointment, and, if you’re fit enough to walk up 5 flights of stairs, you should too. They’re behind the elevators, to the left.

Dr. O is incredibly talented! I have finally found a skilled, thorough, reasonably priced dentist in DC and I am thrilled. I have been trying different dentists for years to find one that is not only nice but more importantly an excellent dentist and I found her! Not only did I have an excellent cleaning experience, Dr. Olani stayed an hour late because I was going overseas and she squeezed me in to repair my two fillings. She knows what she is doing and is reasonably priced! In addition, the front desk receptionist was so friendly and nice. I could not be more happy with the experience! 10 out of 10! I will be back!

Really love my new(ish) hygenist (new to me, not new to dentistry). She has a gentle touch with all those scary tools and is very friendly and puts me at ease. I also love the dentist. She always gives me multiple options for bigger procedures (I have gum recession and haven't had my wisdom teeth removed yet) and doesn't try to "sell" me on services, which I'm always wary of! Really love Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry of DC. Oh, and I am never left waiting in the waiting room!

While eating a Cheeto at an office party, a 4-year-old cap was pulled out of place. Luckily, I can walk to the dental office in a few minutes, where Dr. J quickly removed the cap, cleaned it and glued it back in place. After a quick x-ray, I was able to return to my office party (but refrained from further Cheetos).

I have been going to Advanced Cosmetic & General Dentistry for a few years now and I could not be happier with the wonderful staff there. I chipped my tooth last night and called this morning and they were able to get me into their office same day. I was really upset about my tooth and Dr. Jahangiri is not only an amazing dentist but she completely cheered me up. Every time I have seen her she is personable, polite and just absolutely lovely. Debbie at the front desk is also a pleasure - she is always smiling and she is FAST. When I was having issues with my insurance a few months ago she took great care of me and handled everything in the utmost timely fashion keeping me in the loop the entire time. TL:DR - I love my dentist and the wonderful staff here :)

Wonderful dental care but the front office staff is so horrible that I had to switch dentists. First they tried to charge me 5K for Invisalign when I went in for a teeth cleaning and they didn’t seem to understand that I wasn’t getting Invisalign then and no matter how much I insisted, they just kept demanding that all 5K was due that day. Then they insisted that I was responsible for billing my own insurance company even though it was in network. It took a 20 minute conversation to be billed normally. Then they kept trying to upcharge me for everything. I decided to get Invisalign through a different orthodontist and the front desk staff tried to insist that I couldn’t get my teeth cleaned unless I spent 600$ on a night guard. I kept explaining to them that I was receiving orthodontic treatments and couldn’t wear a night guard but they kept insisting that they needed their 600$ if I wanted my teeth cleaned. Finally they scheduled me an appointment for a day they weren’t open. So I went to the dentist on president’s day only to find it shut. Great dentist, but the staff is so incompetent and money hungry that you aren’t a patient you are a customer and your time and comfort doesn’t matter - you exist so that they can squeeze every last cent out of you. They are horrible and I felt like a dollar sign, not a human.

Great dentist, But KEEP YOUR RECORDS from the insurance company and from dentist , Received bills that I owed more money , Went to collections and the phone calls started, I told them I did not owe anything , I had to find all the info, call the insurance company and then called them to ask why , they told me they will get back with me and they did , was told I did NOT owe them MONEY.. so just keep all you paper work from any Dr or Dentist , it makes life easier .. It almost went on my Credit Report and The DENTIST office made the mistake !!!!!

I am a huge “dental-phobe” . . . I have gone over 3 years between dental appointments at least 3 different times in my life, once as long as 7 years. I hadn’t had a regular dentist since I left home after high school, because I’d never had a dentist that could put me at ease about the whole process and who didn't seem to have a sadistic streak. I’ve lived in DC 3 years and never bothered to find a dentist until two weeks ago when one of my top front teeth cracked and chipped all along the bottom, making my smile a horror show—I couldn’t put off my next dental appointment any longer. After reading the Google reviews, I am so glad to have taken the chance with Dr. Jahangiri and her extremely skilled and gracious team of Dental Assistants and Dental Hygienists. They had an opening the very next morning, and Siara and Dr. Jahangiri never made me feel rushed at all. Unlike with all my past dentists, I had barely uttered one sentence about my fear of dental work and Siara and Dr. J went out of their way to put me at ease about everything. It definitely helped that the actual dentistry was completely painless as well! When I came back the following week for a cleaning and the follow-up work, Danielle, Siara, and Dr. J once again made sincere efforts to make the experience as easy and comfortable as possible (I’m 34 years old, but I hugged/squeezed “Phil” the stuffed elephant during my cleaning and it was the best cleaning ever). It’s not cheap when you neglect regular dental appointments for years at a time, but if you’re already in that situation, at least you shouldn’t be made to feel frightened or ashamed about your next appointment. Amazingly, Dr. Jahangiri, Siara, and Danielle all went out of their way to make me as comfortable as possible and completely pain-free. Glad I’ve finally found a dentist I can—dare I say?—actually look forward to going back to for regular checkups and cleanings, rather than dreading the perennial search for something better than the last harrowing experience every few years when an emergency arises. TL;DR: + gracious and sincere patient care/bedside manner + painless cleaning, cavity filling, and dental crown procedures + super easy appointments even on very short notice + patient and accommodating with dental-phobes like me + also appreciate the high def PHOTOS of teeth instead of just x-rays!

I would like to begin saying the front desk is very efficient at finding my insurance benefits before I arrived for my appointment for my checkup and cleaning. The dental assistants are so friendly and helpful in explaining the process of the visit. Once I met Dr. J, she has a great bedside manner. Hands down the best.

The best dental experience ever. I came in to get an exam and to find out why a tooth has been bothering me. I was immediately impressed by how kind and friendly the front desk staff was. The assistant Sierra was so nice and made me feel very comfortable by explaining step by step to me what to expect during my visit. Dr J is the absolute best. She reviewed my X-rays with me and explained to me why my tooth ache . She even showed me pictures of my tooth from which Sierra had taken minutes before. It made me feel better seeing the pictures because it gave me more clarity about what was going on. I had to get a crown on my tooth! And they were kind enough to do my crown the same day because I was in pain. I was even able to listen to music on provided headphones so I wouldn't have to hear the drill while I got my crown. I highly recommend this office to anyone who is looking for a dentist. I would like to thank Dr J and Sierra for such an warm experience and will definitely be returning for all my dental needs.

I had a horrible experience. I'm a person who took a fall and broke a few front teeth. The temporary solution given to me lasted a few days, was for $1,200. The staff there was very shrewd to pretend they accepted my insurance. If my visits there had gone on it would have been to the tune of probably $20,000. Their goal was to get me to come back as much as they could. They also told me six months later that they discovered a new bill they needed to send me (this was after they realized I wasn't coming back). But also, and this is the worst part of it, their solution to my problem were veneers. I assumed I would be treated as a patient, but veneers are not a solution to dead teeth from an accident. Dr. Jahangiri's solution aligned with her financial interests, and thus I was treated like a gullible customer. I ended up getting proper care elsewhere, but the physician who did get me root canals and caps I needed was appalled when I showed him a bill from this office. There is a good deal of fraud in dentistry. Dental surgeons probably get away with all kinds of unnecessary work. If insurance deems it unnecessary then a company like this will just send you over to a collections agency. A patient's gullibility is their financial gain. I hope people see this post and do not do business here.

This is unfortunate and could have completely been avoided had it not been for my unsavory experience with this office. I will try to provide an abbreviated version and the latest update. Long story short, I visited in June 2016 and received a bill (that should not have been received) in August. I was given erroneous information from both the front desk associate, who I'm told is no longer there as well as the Office/Billing Manager, Sandra. They explained the issue was resolved and I hoped to move on. However, I received another bill weeks later and the cycle started again. Hoping to put this to rest, I requested my medical forms be transferred to a new office and when that didn't work, the young lady from my new office had to request the forms. I decided to leave a Yelp review about my experience a few weeks ago and once the Office Manager read it she called to explain. In her message she said I would receive a refund and asked for me to call back so we could discuss the next steps. The call, however, was the polar opposite of the message as she explained there was no refund, it was all the fault of the young lady who no longer worked there, and she requested that I remove my negative review. I declined since it was apparent this call's purpose was to remove the review. Fast forward to this week and I received another billing attempt from my former dental insurance provider for this SAME visit. The billing statement even lists this as another attempt. It is incredibly disheartening that the response to not getting what someone wants is unnecessary action. It is my sincere hope that this saga ends.

I live in Florida and I was in DC when I had a chipped tooth and someone at my hotel recommended this office. First of all they made coming in so easy they send me all the paperwork via secure email so I could send back information with my social without worrying about identity theft :) Long story sure Dr. Janahngiri fix the chip in my tooth and it looks better than the bonding that I had done back home in Florida. Thank you :)

I came to Advanced Cosmetic years ago after finding them as one of the top rated dentists in the region as listed in Washington Consumer Checkbook at the DC Public Library. I was super dissapointed when Dr Steven Barsky, my original dentist retired, but he asked me to stay on for his excellent colleague Dr. Arousha Jahangiri. Right from the start, she turned out to be just as exceptional as Dr Barsky, and now I would never consider going anywhere else. I think the hygenists are all kind, efficient, well trained, and excellent communicators. Arousha is both personable and professional with a warm and listening demeanor. The front office staff is equally good, and I love that they follow up with me using my preferred contact method (texting) about upcoming appointments. - I rate them highly and recommend this dentist with confidence to all my friends I think you will too.

Let me first start out by stating that I had the same dentist growing up for almost 23 years. With that in mind, I was terribly nervous when I began my search to find a new dentist when I moved to DC. Boy did I luck out! I can't say enough positive things about Dr. J and her wonderful staff. Her office is conveniently located downtown and is accessible to numerous bus stops/the metro. Her office atmosphere is the most positive - I laugh and have wonderful conversations with both her and her staff during every visit. The dental care itself is thoroughly executed - whether it be a cleaning or a filling. There is great flexibility when booking appointments/choosing from times that work best for YOU. Look no further than here to find your next dentist! I'm already looking forward to my next appointment :)

A very well managed practice. Now I know where to refer my friends and family for a thorough work up. Dr J is a smart and competent dentist. She had to deal with my very complicated case in the first visit; and believe me it was not just about a cavity and clean up. She offered different treatment options, prioritized the plan in a stepwise fashion; did really well to help me with the most acute issue and offered me a follow up the day after and finished a complicated procedure in the most efficient manner. Her staff were all knowledgable and supportive.

I was referred to Dr. Jahangiri by my Oral Surgeon. I have a complex medical issue that requires patience, understanding and a knowledge of how someone's health obstacles can play a major role in the dental care they recieve. I am happy to say I found that in Dr. J. I went in for a cleaning and knowing I'd have to have some other future things done. I've had some not so great experiences with other Dentists in the DMV area, which explains why I was so nervous before seeing her. She not only took the time to really listen to what was going on and my concerns, her confidence also made me feel comfortable, relaxed and safe. She was very thorough and attentive. She had Sepi, one of the Dental Hygienists perform my cleaning. I have to say that was literally the most comfortable cleaning I have ever had in my life. and I loved her personality. The bedside manner amongst the staff that took care of me was great! Instead of fearing the Dentist, I now have a new appreciation for them and I look forward to improving my dental health. Thank you Dr. Jahangiri and Sepi, for helping to make my first meeting/visit a rememberable one, you are appreciated! Carie
