Such a friendly office from the front desk, hygienist, to the doctors - everyone is so nice and welcoming. I have terrible cavity prone teeth but they never make me feel bad. They truly care and I don't feel nervous or uncomfortable going to the dentist which in the past at other dentists I have had terrible anxiety and dreaded going! Bonus they're hygienist are really good!

This is the most phenomenal dentistry experience I've had in my 41 year life. The hygienists and dentists are the most educated I've ever met. Not only are they educated but they do an amazing job of helping to educate patients. I would recommend anyone looking for a dentist in Ventura County area seriously consider coming here and giving it a shot.

From the minute I walked in the door, I felt warmly welcomed and put at ease. There was genuine kindness and friendliness from the staff. Christy and Sarah made me instantly comfortable. The culture of Camarillo Smiles was palpable kindness and consideration. I had been in such extreme pain I would have been happy to have been a guillotine tester. Dr. Brett professionally, and quickly fixed my fractured tooth.
He did not try to upsell anything. By that alone, he earned a role as my lifetime dentist. PS. Extra bonus that helped calm me was a screen on the ceiling of underwater gorgeous fish and corals.

Hands down recommend this dentistry! I can't lie, I will never be comfortable with metal tools in my mouth. I hadn't been to the dentist in a few years before coming to Camarillo Smiles. They were all really nice, even Dr. Ehde did my Invisalign consult, she's super chill and nice. But I have to say Brooke is my favorite. She did my first scans and went over everything with me, she even started a small cleaning after my scans! Then, she did my deep cleanings. She's very nice and listens if I feel any discomfort or pain. I feel comfortable when she does my teeth and I've noticed a significant change with my teeth and gums. Thanks Brooke. 10/10 recommend Camarillo Smiles!

Nothing says going to the dentist like the lyrics "hello darkness my old friend" resonating in my head. My anxiety is always so high but every time I sit in that chair Dr. Bret takes every bit of that fear away. He explains everything he's doing and always seems to have a plan that's better then the alternative. While the shot's not fun he has a great technique and it's really not that bad. at all really.
The truth is if you can get over the anxiety none of it is bad and that's what makes him and Camarillo Smiles so great. Their work is top notch, they don't sell you what you don't need, they pay attention to detail and everyone is so nice. For as much as I hate going, I always leave smiling and happy and I'm never short on compliments at how good my teeth look! I love these guys and am grateful at the care they give knowing that going to the dentist isn't so easy for everyone.

Camarillo smiles was the absolute best dental experience I have ever had. From the front desk to the back office staff, everyone treated me like royalty. I was so impressed, that I immediately made an appointment for my entire family, as they get nervous when it comes to dental work. It was my first time in the office, and they took two hours on making sure to answer all my questions and making sure I felt comfortable. Great job Camarillo Smiles! You are an amazing team!

Just had my teeth cleaned with Maretta and saw Dr. Bret! It was an excellent experience, as always. Camarillo smiles has their own insurance program. I have 3 cleanings, 2 doctor visits and x-rays annually for $368.00. A real value! Everyone at Camarillo Smiles is helpful knowledgeable and friendly.

I was looking for a new dentist and after looking through my insurance website for in-network providers Camarillo Smiles was the recommended place for me so I scheduled an appointment and the front desk staff were all amazing to talk to and accommodating. I was able to get in and get my feelings filled in and they were accommodating in all ways that were unique to me.
And I was able to watch my podcasts with the tv on the ceiling. I am looking forward to going back for other work I need done and will be recommending this place to my family and others who need work. I am very satisfied and the doctor clearly and with good details explained what was happening to my teeth which my other dentist basically said otherwise. This dentist was in alignment with what I already knew so go here and get Honest and high quality work done.

I ended up here because most dentists were booked way out, but they were wonderful. Everyone was super friendly, and they actually informed me that what I thought was a cavity was not. Definitely not trying to scam. They were also more holistic than I expected, which was a plus for me! But lower priced than an advertised holistic dentist.

Cass and Dr. Ehde are amazing! They do amazing work; fast, efficient, friendly, everything you could hope for. Had a really great conversation today with Cass during my cleaning my appointment. I have also went to Dr. Czubiak since I was a kid. Haven't seen him in awhile but always appreciated my time catching up with him. A lot of great people at Camarillo Smiles to go along with their top tier work! Thank you Cass and Camarillo Smiles team!

Truly one of the best dentists office I've been to. Every member of the staff is super kind and warm. They take the time to talk with you and help you comfortable while they prep to poke around your mouth. The dentists aren't impatient, but take the time to explain and answer questions. And I feel they are very honest! I've been swindled by a dentist and was really scared to try to find a new one after that, but this has been a great experience so far. My son (3) is always well cared for and they're very gentle and attentive to his needs. I would 100% recommend this office to anyone!

I told Facebook friends as well how wonderful Dr Ehde and crew were. Thank you Dr. Ehde and her assistant Eddie for emergency attention to a painful dental problem just days before a major family event. Special time was set aside for me because of the pain and the infection which Dr Ehde addressed. She also fixed a cosmetic issue in time for the event. I've been coming to Camarillo smiles for well over 20 years.

This dental office and staff are amazing! We had an emergency with my son. We called Camarillo smiles dentistry first and they got us in right away! The receptionist was so nice and helpful. The dental assistant sat us down and was nice as can be. Before we knew it the doctor was at my sons side checking him out and letting us know everything was going to be fine.
She took her time with us and made us feel heard. We absolutely loved the experience and are so grateful offices like this exist! Plus the office is gorgeous and so so clean! Thank you Camarillo smiles, you guys are life savers!

Amazing! I have a wedding coming up in November and decided to do something about my smile :) Like a few people here, I've done a lot of research on Invisalign and really looked into Smile Direct Club. After a lot of YouTube videos and articles, I found that Smile Direct Club simply doesn't have the hands on service needed for something like aligners.
After a few calls to different location here in Camarillo, I decided to go with Camarillo Smiles because of the overall helpfulness of their staff. Everyone from Lainee that helped set up my first appointment to Sarah who did my initial exam and took my pictures. All this was before I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Edhe who is amazing! Initially, I got my pictures taken and all and then. businesses shut down due to COVID-19.
At first, I was a little worried I wouldn't get my treatment completed by my wedding date but Dr. Edhe contacted me, gave me her cell phone number, and set up an appointment where she set me up with my first set of aligners. Since then, I've had nothing but GREAT experiences from getting teeth cleaned by Maretta a couple times to working with Eddie and Teri to get some other work done.
Highly recommend Camarillo Smiles not only for their affordable and flexible pricing but also for all the staff. Everyone is amazing and I couldn't be happier with my decision. Thank you to everyone at Camarillo Smiles :)

Maretta is the best hygienist I've ever had! I actually look forward to going when I used to dread it in the past. Super friendly staff and doctors and they accommodated me really well since I'm in a wheelchair. They also had checked my insurance ahead of time so I knew what was covered and what would be out of pocket. Highly recommend going to Camarillo Smiles!

Awesome dentists here. Both my son and I who's 5 come here and have loved our experiences. everyone is super kind and thorough and they take their time to really explain to you all procedures and make you feel comfortable about what's happening. The office staff is also terrific and really friendly when you get there and they do a great job with billing and explaining all of your charges and insurance.

I am one of those - OH GOD I HAVE TO GO TO THE DENTIST types. I think if I had been to see Dr. Czubiak and his staff earlier in my life I would have felt very differently. They are simply awesome. I had extensive work done. They were understanding of my anxiety and did not make me feel foolish - which relieved some of the initial anxiety. I trusted them immediately.
The procedure was painless (yes, really). They made me very comfortable, to the point I spent quite a bit of my time laughing (not from gas- which much to my surprise I didn't need). i have seen a few of the dentists in this group and all have been wonderful. I urge anyone who needs a great dentist - and would like to start going to the dentist without fear, go to Camarillo Smiles.

I've never been a fan of the dentist and it showed. When I finally decided to take the leap to do Invisalign, I did A LOT of research. Finally, I settled with Camarillo Smiles / Dr. Ehde. I could not be happier now that my treatment is complete! Dr. Ehde, the front office and back office team are AMAZING! All very sweet, upbeat ladies who are great at their professions. Dr. Ehde is detailed, flexible with your life schedule and just an overall pleasure. Thank you Dr. Ehde and the entire Camarillo Smiles team. Keep up the amazing work!

I felt well taken care of at my first visit to Camarillo Smiles recently. The hygienist and dentist were both very thorough and friendly. The reason I took a star off was because of the sales pitches they both gave about needing to buy a water pick, I would benefit from teeth whitening, and that I need a retainer so my teeth don't shift. Well, they haven't shifted in over 25 years, so.
Lay off the sales and you'd get 5 stars. And if you just can't lay off, don't have the dentist repeat the same pitch that I've already heard from the hygienist. The office staff for sure gets 5 stars. They are friendly and helpful and very professional. I might be back.

I like the dentists, I like the techs. Billing sucks. Billing is unclear and convoluted. They will charge you before they tell you what you are being charged for and not tell you until AFTER a procedure is done that they don't take your insurance anymore. Not worth staying. It is too much of a headache.

Lisa, you are always so pleasant at your job that I actually enjoy going to the dentist for the first time in my life. To see your bright smiling face. You seem to be such an upbeat person, that you always make what I'm there for tolerable. I hope this review helps you and your company grow. I'm not sure that you are as excited about this than I am. I'm not so happy, if you get too busy, you may not remember my name every time I walk in there. Well, anyway this is a very positive review for you, Dr Pez.
I know she's out on new bonding leave, but hopefully she'll return to us one day, and Lauren who very professional and though and pleasant. I really enjoy coming to your facility in general

I had my wisdom teeth removed yesterday with Dr. Monica. I was very nervous about the procedure because I was only doing numbing shots and no gas or anesthesia. I have been getting my teeth cleaned with Mona for a few years now and she always makes me feel so comfortable so I asked her if she'd sit with me through the procedure. She seemed happy that I asked her to do this and said of course she'd be there!
When it came time for the procedure yesterday Dr. Monica was very kind to me and explained everything that was going on. She has a very soothing voice and that really helped me to stay calm. I was done within an hour (all 4 wisdom teeth, they had all grown in already) and on my way home. I woke up the next day with minimal pain and virtually no swelling.
No one noticed any facial swelling and everyone warned me that I wouldn't be able to really open my mouth. well I didn't experience that either. Dr. Monica is so gentle and sweet!

I used to love it here, but I can't give them more than 3 stars based on the attitude from the new front desk lady. I had to reschedule an appointment a few times (just my general cleaning appointment), which I did with more than enough time (at least a week ahead of time) and she was so incredibly rude each time. She attempted to lecture me on how I HAD to come in because I had to have my retainer fitting.
I don't even own a retainer, nor was I ever fitted for one. When I corrected her, she sassed me even more. If it was an isolated incident, I'd give her the benefit of the doubt, but every interaction with her over the phone is horrible. She's rude, condescending, and entitled. If I never had to speak to her again, I may give this place back its 5 stars, but I haven't found a way to avoid her yet.

Dr. Czubiak is a class act. I moved up to the bay area a year ago and recently went to a corporate dental office on a Groupon deal (x-rays/exam/cleaning). They told me that I had a very large cavity under an existing filling and that I needed a crown ASAP. The dentist was shocked that it was giving me no pain and that it may even need a root canal, but they wouldn't know until once they got in there.
They quoted me $1280 for the work. They also told me I had another small cavity on another tooth. I called my dentist's office of 10 years in Camarillo, Camarillo Smiles, just to get an idea of prices for dental procedures without insurance. They were happy to talk to me and told me what they charge for all their procedures ($975 for a crown).
Since I was going to be in So Cal for a visit anyways, I made an appointment to get it taken care of and had Randhawa Dental in Alameda email me my recent x-rays. When I got there, all prepared to have my tooth drilled out. I was filled with anxiety and bummed out that I had to spend my vacation getting dental work. Dr. Czubiak told me that I did not need a crown, in fact, I did not any cavities at all.
He pulled up my x-rays from 6 years ago to compare them to the recent ones and showed me that there were two very small shaded areas that were caused by different features of my teeth, but since they had not grown obviously they were not cavities. NO CROWN NEEDED! The moral of the story is stay away from corporate dental offices! Dr. Czubiak is as honest and kind as they come. Cass is an amazing hygenist too : )

I've gone to Camarillo Smiles for over thirty years. I used to be afraid of the dentist, but since I started seeing Dr.Czubiac I have no fear. The office staff is wonderful and welcoming. I can't say enough about how caring and kind Dr. Czubiac has always been. Once a friend and I were discussing dentists and we both insisted that we went to the best dentist. Finally we discussed who our dentist was, and guess what! We both went to Dr. Czubiac. I highly recommend him and the entire group.
Bonnie Sterling
I have been coming to Dr Czubiak for years. I drive from Simi to come just to this location. From Lisa at the front desk to my hygienist Lauren, I always receive the very most modern and quality dental office experience. Dr Czubiak is a great guy. In the 20 years I have known him he has always taken care of me perfectly. I love that he doesnt rush to perform procedures but is happy to "keep an eye" on something and see what develops. The pricing is fair but not cheap. If you are looking for excellent care, you will find it here. I'm a raving fan, I would give this office extra stars if I could.
Morgan Laue-Locker
Today was my first time here. I've always been terrified of the dentist because of bad experiences in the past, but not anymore! Jenny and Dr. Ehde were great! Both were very informative, gentle, and made me feel so comfortable. Lisa, at the front desk, was also very helpful! Happy to have found a great dentist office!
Tracy Johnson Turley
Everyone in this office makes you feel completely comfortable and welcome!! During my cleaning, Jenny explained everything she was doing and the importance of each step (I've had many cleanings from many different hygentists and this was the first time anyone has explained the process). She is excellent! The Doctors are friendly and extremely competent and the entire staff is so friendly!! I highly recommend Camarillo Smiles!!!

Dr Mike created an atmosphere of dental fun-professionalism back in 1989. It continues today with the added staff. Got to meet Dr Ehde yesterday and would you like to hear her wonderful advice? (Other than flossing, etc . . .) It's all in the breath. Place the tongue to the roof of my mouth and breathe through my nose, out the mouth - relaxes the jaw, too. :)
Excellent hygienists, every one! We travel 200 miles one way to see Dr Mike and staff. It's worth every mile to get to Camarillo Smiles!
