Fernando J Juliao, DDS

I recently got hit in the mouth with a baseball, knocking out half of my front incisor. Given the prominence of this tooth, the only dentist that I trusted to handle the repair was Dr. Juliao. Minutes after leaving him a message, Dr. Juliao returned my call and worked me into his schedule. He explained all the options open to me and helped me to make the decision that made the most sense for never having to repair the tooth in the future. At the end of the process, I have a beautiful crown that looks even better than my natural tooth!

What a nightmare experience it has been. I won’t get into the details but I had gone to Dr. Juliao for a second opinion on just some cavities that a previous dentist had recommended filling. Two root canals and two crowns later (both of which were redone a second time), I am horrified by Dr. Juliao’s aggressive treatment. I don’t know how he convinced me to go down that road but before I knew it one thing lead to another and I just wanted the pain to go away. I should have seek a third opinion right from the beginning but I didn’t and now I’m left with two badly done crowns that still ache on occasions and I have a hard time flossing one of them. I will definitely go somewhere else after this fiasco.

I’ve been going here for over 7 years and have referred friends. Outstanding doctor who gets to know his clients. Personable. His staff is also friendly and they make it a point to be on a first name basis with patients.
Prices are reasonable and the space is beautiful.

This guy is awesome. I had lost 4 crowns put in by a previous dentist (only two teeth with root canals, wondering why he said I needed the other two) and visited Dr. Juliao for a consultation. He was very understanding of my situation and explained the work I needed done. After numerous sessions I have my new crowns back and he even guarantees them. His staff are super nice and pleasant, and in fact I kind of missed them after I finished my work! His prices are great as well compared to other doctors in the Chevy Chase area. I referred my wife to him (who is VERY picky) and she is now using him as her dentist as well.
One other note — the work he did on the two teeth that did not have root canals needed anesthesia. Unlike other dentists, I felt absolutely no pain. I was amazed as I had to tell my previous dentist numerous times to «increase the anesthetic».
Very good dentist, good price, good, guy, good staff, good work.

DO NOT go to this dentist. He injured my mouth on multiple occasions, to the point that I was unable to eat or talk and had to stay in bed. Be careful!
