    Though not yet required by Pennsylvania law, we have installed a device which removes mercury from our waste water and prevents contaminants from reaching our sewer system and local waterways.

  • Digital X-rays

    We utilize digital x-rays in our office, which not only offer improved imaging and diagnostics over traditional x-rays, but allow for a significantly reduced amount of radiation exposure needed to capture an x-ray image. In addition to this benefit, caustic chemicals are not needed to develop digital x-rays and no hazardous waste bi-products are associated with them.

  • Digital Charts

    All of records are stored digitally which eliminates paper waste.

  • Waterless Vacuum

    Our dental vacuum or suction system is waterless, which saves about 360 gallons of water per day compared to a traditional dental vacuum system.

  • Steam Sterilization

    Our instruments are sterilized using the chemical free method of steam sterilization. This system is not only safer for the environment but also offers superior sterilization compared to traditional methods of sterilization.

  • E-Claims

    All of our insurance claims are sent electronically to insurance carriers to avoid the unnecessary waste of paper.E-Claims

  • BPA Free Composites

    We offer composite (tooth colored) fillings which do not contain the chemical bisphenol A.

Being my first time at Dentists on Washington and my first time back to any dentist since before the pandemic, I didn't know what to expect. I paid out of pocket, but they provided great specials. I was able to have two of my fillings replaced and they feel ten times better than my original ones! All in all, I am very happy with my experience!

Very friendly, Explain everything including pricing before doing any work. They are total professionals and I felt comfortable even when they were working on fillings.

We LOVE Dentists on Washington! I have been coming here for almost 8 years now. My husband and 1 year old daughter now go here too (and she loved her experience too - no crying!!). Both Dr. Ngo & Dr. Costello are so sincere, professional, honest, and kind. Their support & reception staff is amazing too. I have no idea what the last reviewer was talking about; that has NEVER been my family's experience here. Both Drs work seamlessly together, sometimes Dr. Ngo will start, and Dr. Costello will finish up - but they are always so communicative to what's going on, etc. They always make time to answer any questions, both in person & through email. Seriously, anyone who is looking for a new dentist, go here! I can't recommend them enough.

This is one of the best dentist office's I've ever been to! They are very kind and polite, they don't make you feel ashamed if your teeth aren't the best. I always feel super comfortable and not judged. Down to the receptionist Tiffany, she's amazing and super helpful. When I was pregnant in 2020, I did not have the best insurance and due to covid was limited to working. I needed a filling and Dr. Duyen Ngo did it with no charge. That was one of the most heartfelt thing's anyone in this field has ever done for me! I really appreciate the staff there. They are the best!
