“Originally came to Bethesda Dental Specialists for my toddler and Dr Rao was great. Their lobby is fun and welcoming and the rooms are comfy and inviting. When my dentist fell short on hygienists I switched to BDS and had my first appointment today. They did comprehensive imaging, which revealed the start of a cavity and some staining. Dr Logan advised me the staining is normal but the cavity we should take care of soon. I appreciated the advice and friendly tone throughout and look forward to future visits. Highly recommend!” — Google Review,
