The Experience

Service dogs by your side, warm towels in your hands and a team that knows your name. This is the dental visit you never knew was possible.

Comfort Dentistry

Relaxing at the Dentist? Totally Possible.

Many people dread the dentist. We set out to change that. From the moment you walk in, every detail — the calm of a trained service dog, the scent of a warm towel, the show playing above your chair — is designed to replace anxiety with genuine comfort.

Meet Our Service Dogs

Dr. Drew’s lifelong passion for dog training led to one of the most-loved parts of a Rappaport visit. Our gentle, well-trained service dogs greet you in the lobby and, if you’d like, settle in right beside your chair — a steady, calming presence that makes first visits, longer treatments and anxious moments feel easier.

Patients of all ages tell us the same thing: a few minutes with our pups and the nerves simply melt away.

  • A reassuring presence for anxious or first-time patients
  • Calm companionship during longer procedures
  • A welcoming, stress-free atmosphere for every age
  • Your visit, your way — just tell us your preference

Designed Around You

Comfort in Every Detail

On Time, Every Time

Patients notice: our office runs on schedule, so your visit is calm from check-in to checkout — no waiting room marathons.

Fewer Visits

Same-day CEREC crowns mean you walk out with a permanent restoration that afternoon — no temporaries, no second appointment.

A Team That Knows You

Our small team takes time to listen, explain every option clearly and treat you like family — because that’s how dental care should be.

Our Favorite Refreshment

Proudly Pouring Saratoga

Dr. Drew is a big fan of Saratoga spring water, so we keep it chilled and ready for every patient.

Grab a bottle when you arrive or after your cleaning. It is one more small comfort we have added to make your visit feel easy, refreshing and a little bit special.

In Their Words

From Dread to “Can’t Wait”

This is a phenomenal dentist’s office. I used to hate and dread going to the dentist, but now it’s something I genuinely look forward to and no longer feel is a hassle. Dr. Drew is incredibly kind and friendly and is always happy to see me, answer my questions, and review any potential dental care I may need. The dental hygienist I see, Sarah, is also amazing—she’s so bubbly and positive and makes getting my teeth cleaned fun, which I never thought I’d say. The office staff are just as wonderful and easy to work with when it comes to scheduling appointments and handling billing. The waiting area and treatment rooms are always spotless and feel cozy and relaxing. This office has completely changed how I feel about going to the dentist, and my teeth are the healthiest they’ve ever been.

I can honestly say that my visit to Rappaport Dental was the best dental experience I’ve ever had in my life. From the moment I walked in, the entire team made me feel comfortable and cared for. Mollie and Carie welcomed me and were very informative. The staff is warm, professional, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is perfect. Dr. Rappaport is incredibly skilled, gentle, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. Angel was very accommodating and comforting during my procedure. I even got my crown the same day, which was amazing! I’ve never felt so relaxed and confident at a dental appointment before.

Dr Drew and team are the best in the biz. They always make you feel comfortable and informed on any necessary procedure. Recently had to have implant and PRF procedure. It was a breeze and this is coming from someone who used to hate going to the dentist.

Just had my latest dental cleaning and x-rays. Minda did her usual superb job! Very thorough. Dr. Drew is outstanding! Very thorough. Explains everything. Dr. Drew’s office is always on time. No waiting. This is the most professional office I have ever visited and the staff there are the nicest people too. Highly recommend this practice. 5 stars.

Amazing experience. The entire team is just wonderful. Going on three years now and never anything less than "excellent." Super hygienist (Minda) and same-day crowns, chip repairs...great service.
