About Gentle Dental Manchester South Willow

Reviewers describe shots and extractions here as far less uncomfortable than expected, with a doctor who pauses to renumb at any sign of discomfort.

Gentle Dental Manchester South Willow is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign, lingual and traditional braces, and TMJ treatment. Many reviews single out how gentle procedures feel, describing little discomfort during shots and extractions and a willingness to pause and renumb if pain is felt, which reviewers say makes the office well suited to nervous patients. Dr. Maryjane Hanlon is described as experienced and thorough in walking patients through X-rays and treatment options, though a handful of reviews mention feeling rushed during exams. Billing and insurance issues come up in a number of reviews, with some describing unexpected charges or coverage that didn't match what they were told.

Orthodontic care in reviews

A few reviews touch on orthodontic treatment here, mentioning billing disputes over a child's braces plan and an Invisalign patient who learned insurance didn't cover the treatment partway through, though one reviewer called the orthodontic care worth the time and money invested.

I arrived early & they took me right in. Exam was thorough & I was told, no issued, just a regular cleaning. The reason I gave them a 4 instead of 5, was I would like to get the cleaning done during same visit. Having to make another appointment for a 20 minute cleaning takes time from me.

Came in for first time patient and a cleaning. Maggie got me set up with X-Rays and updated procedures because I haven't been to a dentist in a few years. She was really cool. Van came in and performed my cleaning and crushed it. You can tell she enjoys her job. It was effectively painless and quick. My mouth feels clean and I am very happy.

DO NOT GO HERE. First they tell me and my husband we need root canals, then we get a second opinion & they tell us no we absolutely didn’t (we went to thailand & got a second opinion) then i had to get a filling urgently so I went back to them & it hasn’t even been a year & my filling completely fell out. I have fillings from 6-8 years still in & not even a year and this filling is out? Plus the dentist RUSHES she didn’t even make the filling even & told me to come back to straighten it out? Like what kind of work is this? Wouldn’t recommened this place to my worst enemy

Some years ago, I went to Gentle Dental for a repair of my temporary partial denture. I ended up with extractions of all upper teeth, a full denture and it was not "gentle". Last week, I had an infection and knew I needed a extraction. I went back because they had my records. I had the most caring and compassionate care from Dr Hanlon and her team. For the last number of years, I have not recommended Gentle Dental. Today, I give them glowing positive reviews and recommend them. Thank you.
