PORT CHESTER, NY – July 20, 2026 – Westchester Gentle Dentistry is proud to recognize its inclusion in Westchester Magazine’s Faces of Westchester special advertising section, where the practice was featured as The Face of Gentle Dentistry. The feature celebrated the practice’s longstanding commitment to gentle-first, anxiety-friendly, patient-centered dental care and its mission of helping patients throughout Westchester County feel comfortable, confident, and supported at every visit.
Originally published in the magazine’s August 2025 edition, the feature highlighted Westchester Gentle Dentistry’s nearly three decades of serving the community through compassionate care, modern dentistry, and personalized treatment designed around each patient’s unique needs. It recognized founder Dr. Feryal Alidadi and the practice’s reputation for creating a welcoming environment where patients of all ages can receive comprehensive dental care without feeling rushed, judged, or overwhelmed.
The feature also highlighted what has distinguished Westchester Gentle Dentistry for nearly 30 years: a gentle-first philosophy, personalized care, modern technology, and a commitment to helping every patient feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their smile journey. These principles continue to define the practice today and have helped build lasting relationships with generations of families across Westchester County and the surrounding communities.
“Our philosophy has always been simple—we care for people first,” said Dr. Feryal Alidadi, founder of Westchester Gentle Dentistry. “Every patient deserves to feel heard, respected, and comfortable throughout their visit. Being included in Westchester Magazine gave us an opportunity to share the values that have guided our practice since 1997 and the relationships we’ve been fortunate to build with families across our community.”
Since the original publication, Westchester Gentle Dentistry has continued to grow while remaining proudly independent and family-owned. The practice has expanded its comprehensive dental services with the launch of the WGD Smile Design Center and WGD Implant Center, welcomed Dr. Michelle Gutierrez to its clinical team, and earned additional recognition including Inc. Regionals 2026, Castle Connolly Top Dentists, and Invisalign Diamond Provider status.
Today, Westchester Gentle Dentistry continues to provide comprehensive preventive, restorative, cosmetic, periodontal, and implant dentistry under one roof. Patients throughout Port Chester, Rye, Rye Brook, White Plains, Harrison, Purchase, Greenwich, Stamford, and surrounding Westchester and Fairfield County communities choose the practice for its gentle-first philosophy, relationship-based care, advanced technology, transparent communication, and commitment to creating a comfortable, personalized dental experience.
Whether helping someone overcome dental anxiety, restoring a smile with dental implants, designing a new smile with Invisalign®, or simply providing routine preventive care, Westchester Gentle Dentistry believes exceptional dentistry begins with listening first, explaining every step, and building lasting relationships based on trust.
The original “The Face of Gentle Dentistry” feature appeared in the August 2025 edition of Westchester Magazine’s Faces of Westchester special advertising section and remains available through the publication’s website.
