Washington Center for Dentistry has been my dental home since 1988, and I can’t imagine going anywhere else. For decades, Dr. Daniel Deutsch was my dentist, and his combination of skill, warmth, and artistry in dentistry set an incredibly high bar and left very big shoes to fill. I’m now a patient of Dr. Toshar Taneja, and the transition has been wonderful. I really appreciate his calm demeanor, gentle humor, and clear explanations, which immediately put me at ease in the chair. His meticulous, modern approach and obvious expertise give me complete confidence that my dental care is in excellent hands. I also have to highlight my dental hygienist, Alyssa, who is truly the best. She is thorough yet gentle, always attentive to my comfort, and consistently leaves my teeth feeling incredibly clean. After nearly four decades as a patient, I can say that Washington Center for Dentistry continues to provide outstanding, state‑of‑the‑art care with a personal touch.

WCD is known for its top quality professional care and has a longstanding reputation reflecting their commitment to problem solving. Beyond this legacy, they are also recognized for the compassion they combine with care. As a patient for over 20 years. I can attest to their strong attention to personalized care, steady commitment and welcome compassion in the delivery of their services. They are excellent in identifying problems and then going the extra mile to fine tune a workable solution. They are masters of dental medicine, accompanied by very able staff who never fail to be cheerful and helpful.

Great modern dental practice with incredible staff from the receptionist, hygienist, to billing. Dr. Fordjour is great - so gentle and patient - and has done an exemplary job with my fillings and crown work. I have been going here for 6 years and love it.
