Detailed Introduction

Folan Family Dental is a well-established and privately-owned dental clinic located at 540 Gallivan Blvd in Boston, Massachusetts. Founded more than 35 years ago by Dr. Michael Folan, the practice has a long history of providing quality dental care to the local community, including many long-term patients and their families. The clinic is known for its modern and welcoming atmosphere, having moved to a new office with state-of-the-art equipment in 2018 after a fire destroyed their previous location. The practice is an all-electronic office and utilizes advanced dental technologies to enhance patient care and comfort, including 3D, panoramic, and intra-oral digital x-rays, and CEREC Same Day crowns. This technology allows for the preparation, milling, and insertion of a crown in a single visit. Each treatment room is equipped with a monitor so patients can see their digital images and discuss treatment options with their dentist or hygienist. Folan Family Dental offers a comprehensive range of general and cosmetic dentistry services for all ages, including but not limited to preventive care, cleanings, exams, oral cancer screenings, root canals, bridges, dentures, implants, veneers, and teeth whitening. The practice's philosophy centers on treating patients with kindness, respect, and compassion, and they place a strong emphasis on patient education and a preventive care program to maintain long-term oral health. The clinic's staff is a key strength, known for being kind, caring, and professional. They strive to create a "homey" feel and celebrate holidays and special occasions with patients. Dr. Michael Folan, a graduate of Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, is a dedicated and experienced dentist who is a member of both the Massachusetts Dental Society and the American Dental Association. He is committed to staying current with the latest trends and technologies in dentistry through continuous education. Folan Family Dental is also active in the community, partnering with local agencies to promote oral health education and providing resources and presentations to schools and non-profit groups.

I am very anxious about visiting the dentist, because I have very sensitive teeth with a lot of fillings. The hygienist was very respectful and took her time to make sure that she didn't cause me pain. This was the FIRST time I have not had pain during a cleaning or examination. Dr.

Folan then explained the pros and cons of treatment, but ultimately left the decision up to me. I did not feel pressured, rushed, or spoken down to. This is an excellent dental practice.

Folan Family Dental is, hands down, the best dental practice ever. I've been going there for years and was first brought to the practice when 2 other dentists said they could not save my tooth. Here we are at least 10+ years later and that tooth is still mine! They are easily the most professional, compassionate, bend over backwards people to get it done.

Run, don't walk, to Folan Family Dental.

Dr. Folan and his staff have made a huge difference in my life. My dental problems were causing me a lot of difficulty and while I had received excellent professional care in the past, I needed a practice with a gentler atmosphere, and professionals who cared about helping to make both my dental problems and the attendant financial pressure manageable.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Folan and his staff to anyone looking for expert and compassionate care.

Wow am I horrified now after the lack of care shown. First consultation was great, second visit was promises of a care plan and no contact or returned calls after that appointment. I indicated at my first appointment I didn’t have the $30,000 for the implants.

I was previously quoted at a different facility, so they went ahead and put me together with a different dentist that offered me a $42,000 plan… how they think that makes sense I don’t know. Then let’s talk about the third visit where promises of a care plan were also something I was expecting and six months later I am here with nothing.
