I originally visited Dr. Sulikowski on the recommendation of a good friend for whom he had done dental veneers. Her veneers were far better than any I had seen previously. I wanted him to examine some problems with my teeth with a view towards giving me some veneers. However, he determined that I had problems with my gums that needed to be addressed first. He did a wonderful job on my gums, and then, coincidently, several of my ancient silver filings fell out at the same time that I chipped one of my teeth. So, he gave me a crown and two inlays. Again, the results of his work have been beautiful. I can honestly say that he performed all of these procedures painlessly in an office that seems designed for the comfort of the patient. Moreover, he explains every step that he takes both before and during the procedures which I greatly appreciated and which relieves the stress I would otherwise have experienced.

Dr. Sulikowski is the most thorough, knowledgeable, caring dentist I have ever seen. I have very complicated dental problems which another dentist had caused and the problem had not been recognized by further consults with “excellent dentists”. Dr. Sulikowski immediately recognized there was a complicated problem with my crowns and my bite. He insisted on a complete evaluation of my teeth and overall bite and then met with me to carefully go over the treatment options. He is so kind, so knowledgeable and so technically good. He could easily have just fixed the bridge and sent me on my way. Instead he took the time and has the professional ethic to really evaluate the whole situation and come up with the correct diagnosis and treatment which other dentists completely missed. He is very rare and very good.”

So far I have had Dr. Sulkowski perform a tooth extraction and bone graft. He will be doing my implants as well. He’s a very talented and caring dentist. He takes the time to explain what he’s doing, and gives you very thorough care instructions. He is very concerned that you do not feel any pain yet does not try to give you too much novacaine – he will take the time to give you just the right amount. During the procedure he is very thorough, tells you what to expect, and checks to make sure you are okay and feeling no discomfort. I was playing tennis 2 days later and felt great. It’s obvious to me that Dr. Sulikowski enjoys his profession and wants to help his patients. He is a very personable doctor as well. My hygienist told me he was great and she was right!

Alan Sulikowski of Restorative Dental Group of Cambridge was, and still is, my daughter’s dentist. She lives in Belmont, MA. For the last few years I’ve lived in North Carolina, where I am a Senior Lecturer of Journalism at Wake Forest College. In North Carolina, my dentist kept recommending full dentures for my deteriorating teeth. “It’s going to happen eventually, ” he said. So, we tried gum transplants. I lost a lot of bone. The dentist reported, “It’s just a matter of time.” But I wanted a better way. So, about two years ago, I made an appointment with Alan Sulikowski during a visit to my daughter. It was the best thing I could have done. The first thing Alan said was, “There’s so much we can do.” He was so incredibly gently, encouraging – and I totally trusted him. He laid out the options. While he suggested partials, he also said it was okay to keep going the way I was. He said I could start out with a few false teeth, and take it from there. Most importantly, he explained the many steps we could take.

The next summer we started the work. Even though Alan just used Novacain, I never even felt a shot. He also checked in with me constantly during the procedures. When he would cup your cheek and chin in his hand and ask, “Are you okay?” you just felt like you were in the hands of an angel.

Now the work is finished and I could not be happier. When Alan first held up the mirror so I could see the final result, I just started crying. I had never seen such beautiful teeth since I was young. He did a lot of work that’s be never been done before, and what I truly appreciated about him is that he’s not just a skilled engineer – he’s an artist.
When I truly realized what had happened I found that I began to smile. I’d been putting my hand over my mouth since I was in my twenties! Students who had never seen me smile before now see that when I walk into my classes. Alan Sulikowski completely opened the world up to me for smiling. In short, he changed my life.
I’ve never encountered a dentist like Alan. I am absolutely devoted to him, and will make sure that I travel once a year to see him, always.

What’s great about Restorative Dental is the one-stop convenience of getting everything you need done in one place. After a dentist from another practice misdiagnosed two fillings, causing me extreme pain, I sought help from Dr. Alan Sulikowski of RDGC. He immediately referred me to a colleague in the practice, Dr. Exarchos, for two emergency root canals. I was totally amazed. The work took less than an hour and a half and there was no pain at all. I didn’t even need an Advil. After the root canals, Dr. Sulikowski took over. He talked to me about every possible step and option moving forward with the permanent crowns – everything from tooth placement to coloration. He gave me a cohesive review of what was about to happen, not just of the dental work but of the cosmetics results as well. He talked about the artistic side of crown work, and what that meant in relation to my smile. Most importantly, he listened to my concerns and questions and addressed every one of them until I was satisfied.

It only took 3 visits to get the work done. I was in no pain whatsoever – even though Dr. Sulikowski ended up having to do a little bit of dental surgery. Once again, I didn’t even need to take an Advil. When I saw the finished work I said, ‘Wow, those are my teeth!’ They looked completely natural, just like my other teeth. What I learned from the experience is that while Dr. Sulikowski is definitely an artist, he’s also very easy to talk to – not intimidating at all. I felt I could be honest with him about anything. And he really cares about the outcome. He always called the day after my visit – or, sometimes, even that night – to make sure there were no complications. That’s a diminishing service these days, and just one of many reasons why RDGC is worth experiencing, whether it’s for an emergency or just a routine visit.

Dr. Sulikowski recognized that I was worried about the procedure, that I had a lot of fears, that I didn’t like the surgery aspect of it. So he was extremely patient with me. Just the way that he uses his hands to color the shape of the tooth.. he is really truly an artist.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Exarchos for about 3 years now. A friend of my wife had just finished at BU Dental School and I asked her if she knew any good dentists in Cambridge. She pointed me towards Restorative Dental Group because they taught at BU. She said they were great. So, I signed up with Dr. Exarchos. While all the work he’s performed has been good, the part I value the most from his treatment is that he is honest and practical. I like to understand my options, the treatment, etc, and he never seems to be rushed. He is always willing to take time to speak with me about my concerns, answer my questions, and add his opinions. For example, I went in for an appointment to have a bunch of cavities filled in my wisdom teeth one day and when I asked him if I was better off getting them pulled he said yes and that if they were his teeth he would just have them pulled. So, I decided to have them pulled (by an oral surgeon). I left his office and didn’t pay anything, despite chewing up an hour or two block on his schedule for my scheduled fillings. The staff is also friendly and the office is immaculate and comfortable.

I have used Dr. Fish for over 10 years for a range of dental work including numerous crowns (some with root canals that he referred to area endodontists), referrals for minor gum surgeries, fillings, and general dental care. I recommend him very, very highly. To the extent I’m competent to judge, his work is first rate. He is honest, personable, flexible and willing to frankly discuss options and uncertainties when they arise. As far as I can tell, he keeps up with and uses new technologies as they become available (e.g. electronic imaging in place of traditional X-rays.) I believe his prices are typical of the better Cambridge-based dentists, which is to say not unusually cheap. I have nothing negative to say about him. Highly recommended.

Dr. Fish has done my dentistry for years. He is extremely patient and reassuring, explaining every procedure as he goes along.

Dr. David Fish has been taking care of all my dental needs for more than 10 years. Being a baby-boomer who grew up without the benefit of fluoride, he’s had his challengers; with his expert care and comforting manner, I have a beautiful smile (thanks to six porcelain veneers-my retirement gift to myself). Dr. Fish has genuine patience to go “at my pace” for our longer procedures which make for a more calm and relaxed visit.

I have been a patient of Dr. David Fish since 2006, when I moved to Cambridge. I needed some restorative work, and fortunately for me, I landed in his capable hands. He takes care of all my dental needs and I could not be more satisfied.
