Scott R Helle, DDS

I’ve had myriad dentists and Dr. Helle is by far THE MOST professional. Also, the gentlest. He pays particular attention checking in, continuously, about any hint of pain felt. I’ve had cavities filled, root canals and crowns done and can honestly say I have NEVER felt any pain.
Both my spouse and I drive in from New Hampshire. We each had our own dentist in Boston for over 20 years. After a move to NH we tried numerous NH dentists but after 2 stellar recommendations re: Dr. Helle we tried him and switched immediately. It’s worth the 3-​hour round trip; he’s that good.
He, and his staff, are most helpful with scheduling. I’ve seen the results of his Invisalign and whitening treatments on other patients I know personally and I’m impressed. And all 3 of those patients recommend him highly.
We had an emergency issue and I was stunned at just how accommodating Dr. Helle was in getting us in immediately as well as following up afterward.
Can’t recommend him highly enough.

Dr Scott Helle has to be the absolute best doctor I have ever seen. He truly cares about his patients and is passionate about dentistry! I was previously seeing a dentist for 6 years and that dentist had scheduled me to fill two cavities. I ended up moving and seeing Dr Helle who told me I actually do not have any cavities and saved me a tremendous amount of money. He utilizes some of the most up to date technolgies and always ensures you are comfortable throughout the entire visit.

Dr Helle and his staff are top shelf. I highly recommend him for Invisalign. My case was tough to treat with invisalign but the results have been amazing. Dr. Helle is super knowledgable, patient, accommodating and give 110%. A very skilled dentist with precise hands and stellar people skills. Monica rocks too!

Best. Dentist. Ever. I have had a lifetime of dental work, being in my early 50’s. Fillings, crowns, the usual and not all successful in the past. Dr. Helle has almost made dentistry fun, did I say that? Well, when I had a crown that failed, Dr. Helle replaced it in one day– a short AM appointment for the mould and an evening appointment for the fitting– done! Scott makes the crowns himself, right there, in-​house. He was trained as an engineer first and uses CNC technology with the most durable materials.
I was in need of a root canal, the worst pain. Dr. Helle got me through it with ease– craftsmanship, patience, no rushing, very thorough and no pain I would bother to describe. Gentle, kind and very good at explaining what he is doing and why and what the options are in easy to understand terms.
My dentist for life!

I think the best thing about Dr. Helle is that he absolutely LOVES what he does. No detail, no matter how minute, is insignificant to him. That, plus his incredible expertise, up-​to-​the-​minute technology, and painless-​as-​possible technique make him the best dentist I have ever had.
No only that, but but his chair-​side manner marked by patience, gentleness, respect for the patient, and willingness to explain every step along the way.

This dentist is AMAZING. I have had dental work done over the course of more than a half century in Manhattan, Montréal, San Francisco, Dallas, Princeton, Tel Aviv, London and far flung places I strain to recall.
Dr. Scott Helle is by far the best. Four other Newton dentists were unable to accomplish what this fellow achieved at a cost that turned out to be $ 400 less than his original quotation. And 60% less than all four of those other Newton dentists.
The primary advantage this fellow has seems to be the investment he has made in the latest and most advanced equipment. After several visits to create and implant his custom designed titanium adaptive implant he was able to create a perfectly fitted and superbly color-​matched synthetic porcelain crown. Since he manufactured it IN HOUSE it took him just TWO HOURS.
All of the other significantly more expensive Newton dentists I consulted would have to sub-​contract the manufacturing to an outside dental lab. Thus significantly increasing both the probability of error, color-​mismatch, cost and instead of TWO HOURS I would have to return in a week or 10 days time.
Teeth grow and change position every minute, every hour, every day. Waiting a week or 10 days would guarantee a less successful fit. Other dentists get the incorrect caps and just sand and reform to make them fit. No retrofits had to be preformed on the final cap produced by Dr. Scott Helle.
Additionally Scott called me on two separate occasions after appointments to check in and provide comfort and advise. I was quite surprised to hear from him in the evenings following my appointment. In my half a century of dental patient experience this was a first.
If I were if Africa I would do everything I could to get back to Newton to have Dr. Scott Helle attend to my dental requirements.
