Why people love Tend
10/10. I was scared of everything dental before finding Tend. Amazing staff from Doctors to the Front Desk!
John was very gentle and thorough with my cleaning. I felt very comfortable and my teeth were super shiny and polished after!
Another great visit! Their friendly approach and attention to detail is everything. Since I moved to NYC, they’ve been my first option when it comes to taking care of my teeth!
Always a nice experience. The team is very welcoming and really helps you learn about dental health. Highly recommend!
I had a great visit today at Tend. Dr. Kane and Shania were very informative. They made my visit seamless. Can’t wait to come back !
I was recommended Tend when I first moved here, and I’ve been loving my experience ever since! They are very flexible and willing to figure out the best plan for you. They always make sure I’m comfortable, and with their TVs, it’s a much easier experience if you’re not fond of going to the dentist. Shoutout to Nancy who always makes sure my sensitive teeth and I are cared for!
I get very nervous going to the dentist but I was completely at ease here. The hygenist and dentist were extremely knowledgeable and thorough. The appointment was not rushed at all which is rare in NYC. I highly recommend Tend and can't wait to go back (who thought I'd be excited for the dentist???)!
They also had contactless payment, and let me know up front that there would be no cost associated with my visit based on my insurance. I’ll definitely be back! This is how all dentists should be!
All of the staff at the Mosaic office were all so wonderful. They made sure I was comfortable and understand every step of the whitening process. I was their last client of the day and yet the hygienists offered me extra time to ensure I was satisfied with my results. Highly recommend Tend for any dental needs!
I enjoyed my visit at Tend today. The facility was nicely designed and the staff were friendly. I was impressed with my care and the information I was given and how timely my service was. I’d definitely recommend Tend to everyone if you are within network with your insurance!
Love how Tend has completely up-leveled and modernized the dentist experience, with upscale technology, clean aesthetics /hygiene, and the professional staff. Dr. Mary Taudel, Bohdana and Xavier are incredibly knowledgeable, trustworthy and explain everything, so you understand the why and walk out confident. This place is if all your dentist dreams came true. Thank you!
Wasn’t looking forward to my root canal but Dr. Yu made it painless. Managed to go about my day right after the procedure. It’s been a few days since the procedure but so far so good. Also the Studio Manager, Neday was so extremely helpful. Thank you all.
My hygienist...was sooooo awesome and sweet! Loved the attention and care that went into this visit. She was very attentive to my concerns and eased any anxiety I had!
I had a great experience at my cleaning today - the facility was clean and aesthetically pleasing, staff was amazing and their equipment was top notch. I received a welcome pouch with a tooth brush and toothpaste, custom tv sign, fun glasses to wear, beats headphones for my pre-selected show - truly and experience not expected at a dental office. I walked away with a thorough consultation and feeling excited for my next visit in 6 months!
I had such an amazing experience! 👏 They transformed my teeth in one appointment, like magic! Mary and Dr Li were so kind and gentle. The staff was nice, the space was beautiful, and everything was done very thoughtfully. I greatly appreciate it!! 🙏
Literally the same dental procedures you can get done at any dentist, but such a more relaxing and enjoyable vibe. Staff was attentive and helpfully explained every part of the process. Gorgeous modern office. Laid back and watched Netflix during my cleaning - didn’t even notice time was passing! Definitely a “millennial” dentist.
[My hygienist] really cared about my teeth and took the extra mile to properly clean it, take pictures, explain to them, answer my questions, and give me suggestions. I would usually be at the dentist for about 20-40 minutes at most, but I spent over an hour with her, and honestly, I think she did a 5-star job.
Love the locations, the cleanliness, the decor, the friendly staff Emily. They hygienist was very friendly, always checking that I was okay, patience with me and informed me of everything. Also the doctor was super nice, always smiling and asking if I had any questions. Love Tend and will go back
[My hygienists was] amazing. I used to have bad experience[s] with dental cleaning[s] due to some level of pain. But [she] handled it with extreme care.
My husband and I both had appointments at Tend, and our experience was fantastic. Everyone I interacted with was incredibly pleasant, especially my dental hygienist, Brittni. She was so kind and took the time to explain every step. I had my 3-year-old daughter with me for part of the appointment, and Brittni was wonderfully accommodating to her as well. Overall, it was an outstanding experience at Tend, and we're looking forward to our next visit.
From the time I walked in to the time I walked out, a class act! II thought it was going to be really expensive and someone hovering over me just ringing up the cash register. This was not the case. If you don't need it, they won't push it on you, however, they give you the option and pricing up front.
Amazing staff. My Mom had a dental emergency. They got her right in and out in no time. Top notch medical facility.
Great experience getting a tooth filling redone in my first visit. Both the doctor and dental hygienist were super friendly and made the procedure quick and easy. Although my insurance is paying for most of the treatment, I really appreciate how upfront and straightforward they are about the cost of the treatment.
I had a great experience! I Came here for a cleaning/ general checkup. Doctor was very thorough and went through X-rays with me and answered all my questions. And the hygienist i had did an excellent job. He was super thoughtful and left my teeth sparkly clean without hurting me. And the office itself is adorable, it’s very clean and well decorated. Overall it was a great experience and I will be returning!
One of my favorite parts at the end of the visit was after the dentist gave me his recos his staff showed me on the screen what my next few visits would cost me out of pocket and what my insurance would be covering. This is what visiting the dentist should be like.
Frequently asked questions
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.
However, some patients may need to come in more frequently, especially if they have a history of gum disease, wear orthodontic appliances like aligners, or are more prone to plaque buildup. Your dentist will work with you to create a personalized care plan based on your needs, so you’re always getting the right level of care at the right time.
Even if everything looks great, cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that you can’t get rid of with brushing and flossing alone—and they’re key to keeping your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.
