Pazienza & Votolato Inc

Wayland Avenue has more than its share of storefronts that feel like part of the neighborhood’s rhythm. One of them is Pazienza & Votolato Inc, a dental practice that’s been a quiet fixture on the block for years. You’ll find it at 266 Wayland Ave, Providence, RI 02906, sandwiched between the kind of small businesses that make the East Side feel lived-in rather than polished.

Routine cleanings and exams are the bread and butter here, but the office also handles restorative work—fillings, crowns, bridges—along with root canals and extractions when necessary. If you’ve ever put off replacing a missing tooth, they offer dental implants as a longer-term solution. For anyone who dreads the drill, they provide sedation options to take the edge off. Orthodontic consultations are available too, though you’ll want to call ahead to confirm specifics.

No one enjoys scheduling a dental appointment, but sometimes it’s unavoidable. When the time comes, the number to dial is (401) 751-8046. For directions, the map will get you there without guesswork: straight shot from Hope Street. If you’re already in the area, you might as well walk—it’s only a few blocks from the Blackstone Boulevard running path.
