Robert S Hutner, DMD

Dr. Hutner is an excellent dentist who exemplifies what it means to be a healthcare professional. He is patient, honest, and kind. He is also highly skilled, efficient, and knowledgeable. When it comes to dental care, I join many who may feel hesitant and nervous to visit a dentist, even for something as routine as a cleaning. Let me assure you that Dr. Hutner is someone who will make you feel comfortable and confident every single visit. Trust is huge when it comes to dental health and I repeat what many others have said about Dr. Hutner giving his honest clinical diagnoses that are not influenced by financial gain. This is super refreshing and reassuring… especially in today’s world.
His staff reinforces the excellent quality of care I always receive from the moment I enter the practice. Lan, the Office Manager, is knowledgeable, friendly, and always on point when it comes to insurance, financial arrangements, or any other office related issue for that matter. She always makes sure that I’m well taken care of, which is exactly what I would expect from a private practice. By the way, the office itself is modern, clean, and the view is beautiful as well as calming.
In conclusion, I travel all the way from Cambridge because of the outstanding service, value, and respect that I receive as a patient here. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Hutner and his team because I believe that they are all passionate about dental health and their priority is to ensure that patients always have the best experience.

I can’t say enough about Dr Hutner’s practice. He is one of the most amazing dentist in and around Boston. He is gentle and highly efficient. I have been coming here for over 30 years! One of his hygienist, Angela is also excellent and because of her recommendations on teeth cleaning I no longer have bleeding gums! Floss and frequent cleanings are a must. Once you try here you’ll never go elsewhere!

I couldn’t be happier. When I moved to Boston I tried a couple of dentists, one of whom said I had 4 cavities and I had never had any prior to that visit (30+ years old at the time). Since I was skeptical, I waited six months for my next checkup and decided to go to Dr. Hutner who was recommended by friends in my church. Gratefully, it turned out I didn’t have any cavities. His staff is also wonderful (Angela is my hygienist) friendly, and very helpful (worked with my insurance on a claim for my sons broken tooth). Five stars!

I hadn’t had any dental work done in over 15 years, not even a cleaning, so I was pretty nervous (scared to death), but I finally had good coverage with Delta Dental and the state of my teeth was getting critical. I asked around at work and a co-​worker recommended Dr Hutner, and that he had found him after a concerted search. I’m now coming up to my 5^th visit in 3 months! We’re talking multiple extractions & fillings, maybe a couple root canals, then some sort of bridge (I told you they were bad). Dr Hutner did a full set of x-​rays with a machine that scans them all at once, then spent a great deal of time discussing various options for treatment of my teeth in detail while we looked at the X-​Rays on a monitor right from the chair! This is modern dentistry at its best! After bad experiences many years ago, I had thrown in the towel, figuring I’d die with no teeth rather than take another chance with dentists that looked in my mouth and saw their next BMW. If I had found Dr Hutner 10 years ago, I probably would still have many more teeth today. So far (needless to say) I’m very happy. Even though I have very few back teeth in my mouth, I have no more pain, and for the most part the work, both extractions & fillings have been painless. Sure there’s some pain, that’s how it goes, but Dr Hutner’s care and skill puts me completely at ease. It’s a war zone in my mouth and so far he has taken every hill and won every campaign with no casualties. His staff is really friendly and speak very highly of him and his dedication to dentistry, spending long days both seeing patients and staying up on the latest procedures to help save the teeth of his clients. He even does cleanings when necessary to meet the needs of the business! I’ve never heard of such a thing. Now that’s dedication! I’m very happy and while I may never look forward to going to the dentist, I’m getting there. literally, and consider myself very fortunate indeed!

This is my first time going to a dentist in MA and Dr. Hunter and his team was wonderful. The hygienist that cleaned my teeth knew what she was doing and was very gentle. She even gave me helpful hints on how to floss my teeth since they are so close together.
Dr. Hutner did a few fillings for me in the weeks to come and he was very informative before he started the process. He was gentle in my mouth, and asked me questions to keeps me comfortable as he worked in my mouth.
Overall, Dr. Hutner and his staff were very friendly and made my experience as comfortable as the dentist can be. Although I’ve been in Boston for 13 years and have always traveled home to NYC to my regular hygienist, I will no longer be traveling now that I have found Dr. Hutner and his team. Thank you so much!

I really liked Dr. Hutner and his staff while I was a patient, but since leaving his practice I’ve had some pretty nasty dental issues that should have been treated sooner.
I was a patient for about two years, and at my first visit, Dr. Hutner mentioned a shadowy area on my X-​ray under a filling. He said it was a bit concerning, so he was going to keep an eye on it and be sure to do X-​rays every six months. I had three full sets of X-​rays with him, and he never mentioned this spot again so I figured it was no problem. I left his practice because I was moving out of state, and about two months after moving, my filling in that «shadowy» tooth fell out, and some of my actual tooth broke away with it. I went to a new dentist, and turns out over half of my tooth was decayed and requires a crown, which I have to postpone until my insurance will cover it. I also had five other cavities in my teeth, at least two of which were severe and had been there for well over a year (it had been six months since my last cleaning and X-​ray with Dr. Hutner). After reviewing the X-​rays and seeing photos of the decay, I’m confident that my new dentist isn’t ripping me off, either.
Since my new dental plan has a waiting period for restorative work, I had to pay over $ 1100 for dental work that could have been taken care of over a year ago when I had full dental coverage. Dr. Hutner is a really nice guy and I feel like he and his staff were always very thorough, so I want to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that he was just trying to save me a copay until he was sure that restoration was absolutely necessary. Despite this, given the severity and amount of dental work that I had to have done after leaving Dr. Hutner’s practice, I would not recommend him.

I loved visiting Dr. Hutner. I went in for a yearly checkup after many years not visiting a dentist. Setting up the appointment was SUPER easy! His staff is so nice and extremely helpful when it comes to insurance matters.
The actual appointment went great! Dr. Hutner actually explains what he is doing and why he was doing it. Luckily I had no dental issues, but I am so glad I found a dentist that I truly believe takes my dental health as seriously as I do… even if I don’t floss as often as I should.

Wonderful dentist. Staff is fabulous and does a great job. Friendly and makes you feel very comfortable. I had a crown done and the Saturday after I had a terrible tooth ache. I called the office and there was an option to page the dr. He answered right away while he was at dinner and met me in the office.

Dr. Hutner is great and so honest-​he wouldn’t tell you that you needed unnecessary work done for the $ (refreshing these days). His staff is super friendly too.

Dr. Hutner is a tremendous person and dentist. He is skilled, personable, and professional. Dr. Hutner’s staff is outstanding, from a wonderful secretary Sarah at the front desk to excellent dental hygienists (that even motivated me to floss!). In addition, he has a lovely new office with a wonderful view. Dr. Hutner has great hours (he is open late on Mondays and some Saturdays, I believe) to help accommodate his patients and has tremendously fair prices.
I cannot recommend Dr. Hutner enough. I never knew that going to a dentist could be such a positive experience!
