What Our Patients Say

“Dr. Chandran has done a few fillings for me and it was the best experience ever. She's very nice and made me very comfortable. She's very thorough with everything! She even adjusted my bite 20 times till I thought it was right! The best part was I wasn't numb long after she was done.”

Brandi B.

Shady Side, MD

“Dr. Chandran is amazing. I came to her after I had a tooth that was root canaled and crowned by another dentist that was causing me some discomfort. She listened patiently to my concerns and put me at ease. She came up a with a conservative plan that takes into consideration the health of my tooth. I wish I had come to her to do my original crown. I totally trust her.”
