Before you book

Five-minute checklist before you call

Federal data tells you a dentist exists and is enumerated. It does not confirm insurance acceptance, current availability, or office fit. Use this list when you call so the visit isn’t a surprise.

  1. Confirm insurance & out-of-pocket cost

    • Do you accept my exact insurance plan? (give the carrier, plan name, and member ID)
    • Are you accepting new MassHealth patients right now?
    • What is the out-of-pocket cost I should expect for the type of visit I need?
    • If you are out of network for me, can you bill my insurer or only me?
  2. Verify the dentist & availability

    • Is Roozbeh Kashefi the dentist who will see me, or another provider in the practice?
    • Are you accepting new patients? When is the next available appointment?
    • Will the same dentist handle follow-up visits, or rotate?
  3. Verify the license yourself

    Search the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Dentistry license-lookup to confirm the license is active and in good standing — federal records do not show state-level discipline. Open the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Dentistry site →

  4. Match office services to your needs

    • Do you offer emergency or same-day appointments? After-hours number?
    • What languages do your front desk and clinical staff speak?
    • Is the office wheelchair-accessible? Any accommodations available on request?
    • Do you offer sedation options for anxious patients (nitrous, oral, IV)?
    • Do you treat pediatric patients in this practice, or refer them to a pediatric dentist?

About dentist (other)s

What is a dentist (other)?

A dentist whose NPPES record does not specify a sub-specialty. Most providers in this category practice as general dentists; some are specialists who simply registered under the broader category. Always confirm scope of practice with the office.

Training. Four years of dental school after a bachelor's degree, ending with a DDS or DMD. Some have completed additional residencies that aren't reflected in their primary NPPES taxonomy.
