Chestnut Hill Endodontics, LLC

Based upon a follow up appointment concerning the sloppy filing, dr. Peterson changed up and is very rude. Not helpful and kind. Boy it is a mistake selecting Dr. Peterson to perform a root canal retreatment. It is going to be redone at a professional practice. Dr. Peterson should be investigated and go out of business. Not good. Not truthful. Unilocal community beware of dr. Peterson threats to not satisfied patients.

Boutique root canals? Well this was my first, so I can only tell you. 1. Basically no pain. 45 minutes and done. No waiting. Quiet office. Excellent equipment and technique. Spends time answering question. In 60 years of life and many dentists, I would put him in the to2%.

Dr. Petersen seems like a nice guy and I like that Mary Jane called to check up on me the day after the procedure. I got a root canal done by him and he did a very thorough job. After the procedure, he took an x-​ray to make sure it looked good and he noticed that he missed small section, so he asked if I could come back for about 15 minutes one day the next week because it would be «too much» for me (the patient) to do it then. I let him know it would not be too much and I’d actually prefer to do it while I was already there instead of having to take off work again. Then, then he said that he couldn’t do it right then because he had another patient… ah, the truth. It bothered me that he wasn’t just up front with me from the beginning. If he said he had another patient, I’d understand. He also has a way of talking to adults like they’re 5 years old, which I didn’t really care for.

Excellent at root canals. I’ve had 2 done before with different dentists and the difference between them and this dentist is unreal.
This makes root canals feel ok.

Knowing I was in a lot of pain, Dr. Peterson (whom I was not a patient of, and did not know me) returned to his office after having left for the day in order to see me. That’s just a remarkable person. Would give him 6 stars if it were possible.

You need a root canal, this is your guy. Dr. Peterson is fast, efficient, highly empathic, and in an elegant office with plenty of parking in back. His receptionist Mary Jane is excellent as well.

Awesome endodontics office! The root canal took less than an hour and Dr. Peterson talked me through it all the time, letting me know what he was doing and explaining the procedure well. The secretary was kind too, they both helped abate my nerves in the office. They even called me the next day (July 4) to ask how I was doing (fine!). I’d highly recommend Chestnut Hill Endodontics!

I was referred to Dr. Peterson by my dentist, Dr. Cherie Bishop of Brookline. I was immediately given the soonest appointment available by the nice receptionist on the phone. During the consultation, Dr. Peterson was kind, caring, patient & thoroughly explained my tooth ‘situation’. The office was bright & clean. Easy parking. Thank you Dr. Peterson for being so good!

(writing on behalf of my friend who got his root canal done by dr peterson) dr kevin peterson is definitely most absolutely first person i would go to for a root canal based on what i’ve heard my boyfriend tell me about his experience.
dr peterson was recommended by dr login (dentist in brookline, ma i highly recommend) for nerve treatment part of a root canal. according to my friend, dr peterson is the best dentist he ever had (competent and caring)! he explained everything as he was performing the procedure and also explained using the x-​ray what he had done. throughout the procedure, dr peterson made sure the procedure was as as painless as it could be and that the patient was comfortable as possible.
i have never had a root canal but if i ever need one, even though i moved to ny recently, if i could, i would go back up to boston to get my root canal done by dr peterson.
