Tend Dental Fenway

Yes, we’re currently accepting new patients at Tend Dental Fenway! Whether it’s been six months or six years since your last dental appointment, our team is here to make you feel at ease. We pride ourselves on creating a judgment-free environment where every patient is treated with empathy and respect.

Your first visit will include a comprehensive exam of your teeth, gums, and bite, a detailed review of your oral health, and time to talk through any concerns or goals you have. We’ll make sure you feel informed, comfortable, and fully supported from the moment you walk in.

We accept many dental insurance plans and can help you review how your coverage may apply to your care.

The insurers that we partner with include Delta Dental, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, MetLife, United Concordia, Principal, Oxford Health Plans, and Ameritas.

At Tend Dental Fenway, we aim to make paying for your dental care as simple and stress-free as possible.

You can securely pay your bill online with easy, encrypted options like HSA/FSA cards, credit or debit cards, Apple Pay/Google Pay, and more. Through our partner Cedar, you can view your insurance details, track balances, receive reminders, and even set up a custom 0% interest payment plan that fits your budget.

We also offer flexible financing through CareCredit, a healthcare-focused credit option that lets approved patients spread out their dental costs in convenient monthly payments, including for care not fully covered by insurance.

Before any treatment, we’ll clearly explain your expected costs and payment choices so you feel confident moving forward

We recommend coming in for a cleaning and checkup every six months, which is the standard for most patients. These regular visits help us catch small issues like early signs of decay or gum disease before they become more serious or expensive to treat.

Some patients might need more frequent visits, especially if they have a history of gum disease, use orthodontic devices like aligners, or tend to develop plaque easily. Your dentist will develop a tailored care plan suited to your specific needs, ensuring you receive the appropriate level of care when needed.

Even if everything looks great, cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't remove, and they’re key to keeping your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.

Your first visit is designed to be a warm and comprehensive experience. Here’s what it includes:

• A complete dental exam to assess your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health
• Digital X-rays for a detailed look below the surface (with significantly lower radiation than traditional X-rays)
• A gentle, professional cleaning tailored to your needs
• A one-on-one conversation with your dentist, who will walk you through any findings, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan if needed

We’ll also review your dental history, talk about your goals (whether it’s improving your oral health or brightening your smile), and give you time to ask questions without feeling rushed.

Our Tend Dental Fenway studio is designed with calm in mind. Allowing you to relax and actually enjoy taking care of your smile.

Call us at (617) 203-8966 . Please ensure you do so at least 48 hours prior to your appointment. We reserve that time exclusively for you, and due to high demand, we appreciate as much notice as possible if you need to reschedule.

You can also log into your profile on the Tend Dental app to make any changes needed, including cancelling and rescheduling.
