Leon B Bastajian, DDS

The best of the best!!! My parents started taking me to Dr. Bastajian at the age of 3. 25 years later I am still seeing Dr. Bastajian! I could never go see anyone else. His work is beyond excellent and he is so gentle. He does the most amazing work I have ever seen. Very very experienced!!! He is also very kind, sweet, and has so much compassion for his patients. He shows a great amount of care and will do everything possible to make sure you are happy and comfortable! I would recommend anyone to him because I can assure you there is no other dentist out there like him!. I am so happy and greatful that I have Dr. Bastajian as my dentist.

Dr. Bastajian is the best dentist, period.
Before going to see him for the first time, I hadn’t been to the dentist’s office for nearly a decade. During that time, visits weren’t covered by my insurance, and I grew increasingly wary of uncovering what I knew to be a host of cavities and periodontal issues.
When I finally decided to visit Dr. Bastajian’s office, based on positive reviews, I found him a warm and welcoming practitioner. He did an initial cleaning, then helped me work out a schedule to fix the long years of dental neglect. Over the course of six months I visited him frequently: he performed deep cleanings, fillings, and bondings.
Dr. Bastajian is very flexible, personable, and I’ve never had to wait long for an appointment. Nice man, good dentist — highly recommended.

I found Dr. Bastajian by reading online reviews when I moved to Watertown. I now live in JP and still choose to travel to his practice. He is quick and always painless even without novacaine. He is flexible with my busy schedule and has even stayed late for me. I’ve never had a long wait and there are plenty of magazines in the lobby. Everything is clean and organized. He is also very friendly and personable.

Most horrible dentist ever to go to. I went for my daughter’s and mine cleaning on Delta Dental PPO Plan. He merely did touchups and said cleaning was done. He also pointed out several cavities and took a few X-​Rays — not the whole mouth because he was afraid he will not get paid from the Insurance company! That time I thought he did a good job. I don’t know anything better, right.
Chance is I had to go to my home country for a few weeks and I saw my family dentist there. He was appalled to see the tartar on the teeth of both mine and my daughter’s. I told him that we just got it cleaned in this good old Watertown office and he was taken aback. He said cleaning should have done better considering the doctor is from the US. Or at least the doctor should have warned that the teeth need deep cleaning. I said he never recommended anything like that.
Such is the state of affairs that the dentists want to get paid a fortune for a 6-​monthly cleaning that the Insurance company pays money for. Since it is Delta Dental PPO (which means payouts are not high), all they would do is poke around with their instruments, take a few X-​Rays, apply fluoride and say you are done. Come back in 6 months…
Would never visit again or recommend to anybody in a lifetime.

I have been going to Dr. Bastajian since the mid 1980’s. He is very thorough and best of all he can fill my fillings and repair the old ones without giving me nova cane. He is that gentle, and there is no way I will let anyone else work on my teeth.

Dr. Bastajian is fantastic! He is very personable and gentle and he works quickly but efficiently. He is very accommodating and a joy to chat with. I would definitely recommend him!

Dr Bastajian is my favorite dentist for the most part.
he is ridiculously gifted with his gentleness, i suppose as he has never hurt me at all. i hate going to the dentist 175% but its a lot more like a breeze going to see him.
he only does the very basicwork though that’s why only four starts.
for anything semi serious you will need to go to another dentist. i don’t know if he has it set up w/​other doctors that work with him or nit. i would just much rather have him do everything. this makes me think of possibly switching docs but i am not sure.
He also doesn’t have a cleaning technician or receptionist. i am not sure about that either but he doesn’t hurt me at all that’s the main point of all this.

I’ve been going to Dr. Bastajian for 3 years now. I can say that he is THE BEST in the AREA! His compassion for patients is excellent, and he is genuine. He takes pride in his work, and always a joy to go see him! The 6 months between visits goes fast. He takes his time when working, BUT it is quick! I will never stop going to Dr. B.

I hate going to the dentists. I always have, and I still am. Especially the ones that hurt you…
Dr. Bastajian doesn’t hurt you. He cleans the teeth but unlike other dentists that I hate, he doesn’t hurt at all. All I can say is, as much as I don’t like going to dentists, I don’t mind going to Dr. Bastajian, because he is good and he doesn’t hurt me. And he is great with my kids, which is a huge plus.
