Konstantina K.B.
I'm not a patient but I am a local dentist. Dr. Rivero has an excellent reputation for taking good care of her patients and the work I have seen her do is excellent.
Jamie K.
Marilyn is great! They have top notch COVID measures in place to clean the air. I felt incredibly safe. Also was so knowledgeable and really took her time to listen to me and understand my situation. Her staff were also really friendly and fun! They are all fantastic! Wouldn't go anywhere else.
Vanessa N.

After a traumatic experience with a soon-retiring dentist at another practice, I had become something of a 'dental dropout' for a few years. I finally mustered the courage, asked for recommendations from friends and neighbors, and landed at Dr. Rivero's office. I've been grateful for the compassionate care I've been receiving there. ALL of the staff are sincere, diligent, careful, and sensitive to my anxiety. I happily refer this practice to anyone!

Dr. Rivero specializes in non-judgmental dentistry, so if you are sensitive about your teeth, or being judged by staff or a dentist, have no fear. She is nurturing, caring, empathetic, and above all, her team embodies this philosophy. Go there without fear. She is great.

Dr. Rivero is great, I highly recommend! She truly goes above and beyond. I had an undiagnosed clenching issue and she made me a custom guard. It's so comfortable and has helped so much. Her staff were also wonderful and a great energy.
