Toothache or broken tooth? We keep same-day emergency slots open every weekday.
4120 Alder Street, Linden Park (555) 010-0142
Dr. Elena Reyes and Dr. Daniel Aziz have looked after families on Alder Street since 2011. Checkups, clear aligners, implants and same-day emergency care, explained plainly and priced before we start.
New patient exam, X-rays and cleaning: $189 without insurance.
With insurance, most plans cover your first visit completely. Includes an oral cancer screening and a written treatment plan if you need one.
No jargon and no surprises. Choose a treatment to see how it works, how long it takes and what it usually costs.
Most of what we do is here. A thorough cleaning, a proper look at your teeth and gums, and an honest answer about whether anything needs attention (usually it doesn’t).
Founder, general & cosmetic dentistry
Elena grew up four blocks from Alder Street and opened Brightside in 2011 after six years in a busy practice downtown, where she learned how rushed dentistry feels from the patient’s side.
She studied at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry and has completed over 400 hours of continuing education in orthodontics and cosmetic work. Outside the office she coaches her daughter’s under-10 soccer team, badly.
Implants, crowns & restorative dentistry
Daniel joined in 2018 and brought implant surgery in-house, so patients no longer have to be referred across town. He trained at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and completed a residency in advanced general dentistry.
Patients tend to mention that he explains things twice without making you feel slow. He’s also the reason there’s a very good espresso machine in the staff room.
Hygienist since 2009. Ask her about her rescue greyhounds.
Our children’s specialist. Speaks Spanish and fluent seven-year-old.
Plus Tamsin and Joe at the front desk, who will find you a Saturday slot if one exists and remember your kids’ names.
We’re in network with most major PPO plans and happy to file claims for the rest. Before any treatment you’ll get a written estimate showing what insurance covers and what you’ll owe, and we stick to it.
Prices without insurance. Interest-free monthly plans are available on treatment over $600.

Four treatment rooms, all with ceiling TVs and noise-cancelling headphones. We renovated in 2023, so it no longer smells like a dentist’s office.

I hadn’t been to a dentist in almost five years because I was embarrassed. Dana didn’t make a single comment about it, and Dr. Reyes showed me the photos and gave me a plan I could afford over a few months.
Response from the owner
Kristen, thank you for trusting us. See you in March! – Elena

Cracked a molar on a Saturday night. Called Monday at 8, was in the chair at 11. Dr. Aziz had a temporary crown on it before lunch and the permanent one fits perfectly.

Both our kids actually ask when they’re going back. Marisol is magic with nervous little ones and the ceiling TVs are a stroke of genius.

Straightforward pricing, which is rare. They told me what insurance would pay before starting and the bill matched to the dollar.
Tell us what you need and when suits you. We’ll call within one business hour to confirm a time. For pain or a broken tooth, please call us instead.
Not at all, and you won’t get a lecture. Your first visit is a conversation and an exam. If there’s work to do, we’ll show you the photos, explain the options and prioritise what matters most.
Yes, from their first tooth. We recommend a first visit by their first birthday, and we can often book siblings and parents back to back.
Tell us when you book. We can schedule longer appointments, use numbing gel before any injection, give you a hand signal to pause, and offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for $65.
Please give us 24 hours’ notice so we can offer the time to someone on our waitlist. We don’t charge for the first late cancellation; after that there’s a $50 fee.
Yes. Treatment over $600 can be split into interest-free monthly payments over up to 12 months, and we work with third-party financing for larger cases.
