Best dentist ever! Talking with Dr. Pennisi is like talking to a friend. His demeanor makes you feel comfortable even while you are sitting in a dental chair! He explains everything about a procedure, as well as what he is doing while working on your teeth. He always checks that you are doing ok. He’s amazingly patient-oriented. His staff is absolutely wonderful and a delight to be around. There are several dental offices closer to my home, but I will continue with Dr. Pennisi!

I had a great experience today with my dental hygienist and the dentist. The hygienist met me outside to do the my temperature and they followed the COVID 19 rules. They both wore mask and shields .The office is very clean and sanitized.I would highly recommended my dentist( Dr. Pennisi ) if you need a great professional dentist .He is the BEST!!!

I have been a patient of this practice for 34 years and I have retired two previous dentist that owned this practice. LOL Dr Pennisi was the perfect choice to take over such a wonderful Dental OFFICE. He has continued the vision of keeping it small and personal. He and his staff treat each patient like a person and not a dollar sign. Hard to come by these days! You are always greeted with a smile, they do their best to respect your time and you will leave knowing your teeth are clean and whatever issue you might be having, that you will be a good hands. I give them 5 STARS because they all have earned it!

After moving to Raleigh from out of state I was recommended Pennisi Dentistry from a co-worker. Best advice ever. Everyone in the office was extremely friendly and considerate including Dr. Pennisi. I didn’t feel rushed as I do in many healthcare providers offices, instead I felt like everyone I encountered went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable and all of my questions answered. I had seen my previous dentist for 20+ years so this made a transition to a new office so much easier than I expected. Thank you!

★★★★★

Everyone at Dr Pennisi office is friendly and helpful. They stay on schedule and use appropriate Covid precautions. I feel very comfortable being in their office. Dr Pennisi does not perform unnecessary and costly procedures. Twice over the years I’ve gone in thinking I needed work, but Dr Pennisi found the problems would correct over time by changing the way I brush and that something I had eaten caused trauma to the tooth. He is a man of integrity and I highly recommended the practice. They also file most insurance.

Staff is great and Dr. Pennisi is a great DDS. He has made my smile, smile worthy. Such a classy office, very well up kept (clean) and Dr. Pennisi is easy to get along with and knows a lot about teeth and is an outstanding dentist!!

★★★★★

This group of professionals is absolutely awesome! They take care of me every time I come into the office and even when I’m NOT there. Dr. Pennisi called me the evening after having a root canal done to check on me. That was a first among any of my medical specialists. I love the energy in the office and don’t mind being there…even if it is for a root canal or crown. They’re friendly and professional. If you’re not a patient here, I can honestly say (scream), “MY DENTIST IS BETTER THAN YOURS!” Thank you, Pennisi Dentistry! �

Dr. Pennisi has provided dental care for my retired father for several years. Being 101 years old, his teeth and crowns have outlived the normal range of usefulness, but Dr. Pennisi has found a way to extend their life. Dad says he is the best dentist he has ever had. All the work is done at reasonable prices.

★★★★★

Dr. Pennisi bought the practice from Dr. Smith who bought it from Dr. Kitchell way back in the day, and I’ve been a patient through all of them, since 1983. The previous 2 dentists took excellent care of me through my youth and Dr. Pennisi is now doing the same as my teeth are aging. He’s knowledgeable, gentle, kind, and warm. I’ve had fillings and a crown done by Dr. Pennisi and he has an excellent bedside manners and professional skills. I also feel like the staff have a great rapport with him and each other.

★★★★★

Dr. Pennisi and his staff are super professional and he has a great “chairside” manner. I am not a fan of needles. So, when he had to fill two cavities at the same time, I was beside myself. He was gentle, patient, and extremely careful to make sure I was comfortable. I appreciated his kind demeanor. Love this practice!!! Thanks everyone and especially, my hygienist, Pat!

Just moved before Christmas and had an abscessed tooth/crown. They worked me in immediately as a new patient, got me through the holidays, and did a wonderful job with my first root canal, which was a piece of cake! These people and Chris himself are top notch folks only surpassed by their professional skill and expertise. I was also impressed by the latest in technologies they utilize including ultrasonic plaque removal (super fast) and the ability to create a “virtual mold” for my crown, have it made and “delivered” the same day! TV on the ceiling too!! I never knew I could be so enthused about a dentist, thanks guys!

I moved to NC from out of state and just recently had my first appointment with Dr. Pennisi. I had been going to the same Dental practice in Ohio for a long time, so I was a little nervous about going somewhere new. Everyone at Pennisi Dentistry made me feel right at home. The Hygienist, Pat, did an amazing job and was super friendly. Dr. Pennisi was wonderful!! I had broken a tooth, so I was concerned, but he and his Assistant, Leah, took great care of me. If you are looking for a new Dentist, I would highly recommend Pennisi Dentistry!!

★★★★★

Dr. Pennisi and his team are wonderful and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dentist in the Raleigh area. The whole team is very genuine and caring, making it an easy and enjoyable process for cleanings or anything that needs to be taken care of. He has a lovely hygienist Kelly Miller who I would recommend to anyone and takes great care of your teeth! Thank you to their whole team!!

Been going here since I was 2 years old (over 30 years now) as has my entire family and they have consistently been kind, punctual, honest, and reasonably priced as dentists go. Made a change to lane and associates once for convenience and quickly regretted it and switched back! Dr Pennisi went above and beyond when my 1 year old had a dental accident with grandma.

★★★★★

My husband recommended me to Pennisi Dentistry and it has by far been the best decision I have made regarding my dental health. They are friendly, polite, professional, and absolutely amazing! They get new patients in quickly, and make you feel very welcome. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a great dentist!

★★★★★

I would 10/10 recommend Pennisi Dentistry! One of the least stressful, pain free dentist appointments I’ve been to. I get very anxious when going to the dentist and had to have a procedure done. The dental assistant, Kaitlin (I hope I’m right with name and spelling) and Dr. Pennisi had me calm and pain free the WHOLE TIME! They talked me through the entire procedure beforehand (price breakdown, different plans and also exactly what was wrong with the teeth that needed work). I will no longer avoid the dentist or be nervous! I even booked my next appt. very happy 🙂

★★★★★

My family and I have been going to Dr. Smith for dental care for what seems like my entire life and I have always had a great experience. This may be biased because they always tell me what great condition my teeth are in, but as long as no one is doing any drilling in my mouth I’m a happy camper! The dental hygienists always leave my teeth feeling squeaky clean and Dr. Smith is perpetually tan and cheerful. A few years ago, he added a partner, Dr. Pennisi, and I was reluctant to switch my care over to him, but he has been nothing short of fantastic. I always enjoy going for my semi-annual cleanings and leave satisfied with a well scrubbed mouth and a fresh toothbrush in hand. As a note, they will file with any insurance company, and under my insurance provider, MetLife, my biannual cleanings are completely covered. They do offer care credit and Invisalign services, for those that are interested.

I just had my first appointment with Dr. Pennisi and Kim, his hygienist. I can’t say enough good things about them and the entire office staff. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. The office was very modern, with the latest digital X-ray technology, but the atmosphere was incredibly warm and personal. Both Dr. Pennisi and Kim were extremely responsive to any concerns I had. I felt very valued as a patient. Also, the cleaning that Kim did was absolutely painless. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.

Very happy with Dr. Pennisi and his staff. They are always friendly and helpful and willing to put in the time to do the job right. I’ve had 2 crowns and a few cleanings done there and have been impressed with their explanations of what to expect, the quality of the results, and the thorough follow-up.

I and my family have been a patient of this dental office since 1973 and have received excellent dental service beginning with Dr. Kitchell, then Dr. Smith, and now Dr. Pennisi. The office has always had an excellent staff providing excellent care. The transition from Dr. Smith to Dr. Pennisi was seamless with Dr. Pennisi continuing with the same great staff. The staff turnover in the office has been extremely low over the years. The attitude of the staff makes the visit as pleasant as a trip to the dentist can be. Dr. Pennisi has provided a full range of dental services to me and my family, all with excellent results. Dr. Pennisi keeps up with the latest dental technology. Recently, when I broke a tooth, I expected to be at the office for an hour getting the tooth prepared for a crown and then having to return a week later after the crown had been made. Instead, Dr. Pennisi made the crown in his office. I was out of the office in an hour and a half with my new permanent crown. I recommend this dental practice.

★★★★★

Dr. Pennisi is awesome! He did a crown for me and it was painless from start to finish. He told me exactly what would be done throughout the entire procedure. He personally called me that evening to see how I was doing and gave me his cell phone number in case I had any questions or problems. He is friendly, funny and he genuinely cares about his patients. Everyone in his office is so helpful and wonderful. It truly is a pleasure to visit them and I highly recommend Dr. Pennisi!

I can’t say enough about this practice. I am the patient that is scared to death to go to the dentist and I hadn’t been in a while. Dr. Pennisi and staff made it so much better. I also had a dental accident in which I was worked into the schedule which took most of the afternoon to take care of it. Dr. Pennisi himself even called to follow up on my treatment. I lost my husband a year ago and he even came to the viewing. Hard to find a great dentist like this. They really care about their patients.

★★★★★

Have always enjoyed the patient care at this office! I recently had Kim Masteller clean my teeth before Dr. Pennisi came in and she was SO kind! She could tell that I did not enjoy/got nervous at dentist visits so she kept me distracted and even offered numbing gel so that I would not feel the teeth-cleaning as much. It was obvious she really cares about the patients at the office. Would highly recommend!

Thorough. Professional. Knowledgable. Pleasant. Gentle. Instructive. Staff excellence. And more. Helpful: Adapt to my needs such as significant vertigo means I’m unable to recline to only limited angle. Good adaptation for me! Long time patient: 20 yrs at least! My place for caring dental care. Referrals: Close friend. Son. Neighbor. And special friend. All …transferred from their prior dentists to Pennisi Dentistry!!

I have been a patient at the dental practice since 1985. I have “retired” two previous dentist who owned and sold the practice. Lol What I have always loved about this Dental office is their continued commitment to stay small and keep it personal. Dr Pennisi is such a fabulous dentist. He treats each patient as an individual and not a number( as many Dr offices seem to do these days). The entire team are engaging with patients. You are greeted with a smile when you check in. And they do a great job staying on time. One thing I always notice when I am there is the laughter you hear among patients and staff. Tells me employees are happy where they work:). You won’t be disappointed if you try Pennisi Dental! I give them 5 STARS because they have most definitely earned them!!!

He personally called me that evening to see how I was doing and gave me his cell phone number in case I had any questions or problems. He is friendly, funny and he genuinely cares about his patients. Everyone in his office is wonderful. At 63, I’ve had many dental procedures done in my life and as long as Dr. Pennisi is in practice here, I will never go to another dentist. I highly recommend him.
