Hands down the best dental office in Ventura County. Dr. Bucci and her team are incredibly kind and give you a peace of mind when you're sitting in their chair. If you are looking for a great dentist/team that will not only make you feel like family, but also give you a happy and healthy smile, then this is the place for you!

I have been going to Dr. Bucci for years now and highly recommend her office to everyone. Doctor and staff are all extremely kind, efficient, professional, and are masters in the field. She takes her time to make sure you are not in pain and are feeling comfortable and explains what she is doing as she works on you. Oakwood Dental is a 10/10!

Honestly the best dentist I've ever had. Dr. Bucci and team are so thorough in their exams and have been nothing short of incredible in their skill and demeanor. They are more than happy to indulge your questions and are very up front with the information they provide you. I've never felt pressured for any work needed to be done and any concerns that they have shown were more than valid. I would highly recommend them if you are even on the fence about which dentistry to work with next.

I've been a patient of Dr. Bucci since 2011 and she has been the best dentist I've ever had. She is a caring, perfectionist in a good way and wants to make sure that you are satisfied about the result. I recall an event that she returned twice my crown because she didn't like the way it was looking and fitting. She always makes sure that all her work is done perfectly and correctly.
This is what you call someone who loves their job and cares about their patients. I really love the office staff too. They are amazing and Lisa at the front desk always makes you feel welcome and when ever it's time for reviewing your cost, she explains all the options to you in detail. I recommended her to my husband and he has been a patient too since 2012. I would really recommend her because she is outstanding at her job.

Dr. Laura is very pleasant and seems knowledgeable as you would expect from a doctor. Pleasant staff although there has been some change over in recent years which is a shame as some of the people that left were very kind. I had a broken tooth which was extracted and a few fillings and a temporary crown put in for another tooth. They accidentally left a little bit of tooth or concrete or something in my gum so it felt like I was chewing with a sharp shard for a week before my next appointment which was annoying but not there fault; I guess I should had said something but I'm a guy so;. Anywho the recommendation was to yank my wisdoms to prevent something or other and they did just that.
But now I have a hard time chewing in the corners of my mouth and I have a massive underbite lol so chewing has become a challenge I never thought about before so in hindsight maybe don't get the wisdoms yanked unless u truly need to. Also once the wisdoms were gone some of the teeth next to it moved a little leaving annoying wider gaps for stuff to get stuck inbetween so the gums get enflamed by food irritation since bigger chunks are now allowed to get stuck in these gaps than before.
None of this was the doctors fault however I am sure she is aware of these possible changes and maybe should have explained that these things could happen instead of lets just get these wisdoms out before the world ends or something. Nevertheless I would go back some year but I'm not a glutton for suffering cuz dental offices are obviously the modern day torture chamber.

Dr. Bucci came highly recommended and for good reason! She is amazing. She has great chair side manners, knows her stuff and gets it done. Dr. Bucci found issues that were not found by previous dentist and fixed, re did previous bad work. Dr. Bucci is gentle and thorough. If you have a fear of dental work-she is the go to. If you have a lot of work to be done, she's the go to.
From the time you make the appointment with Lisa, until the minute you leave, you are treated with respect and kindness. The entire staff there are kind, courteous and knowledgeable.

I hadn't gone to the dentist in quite some time and was naturally nervous as I had some work to get done. Dr. Bucci, Nelly, Lisa and all the wonderful staff at oakwood dental made my experience easy. Dr. Bucci's work is excellent and she has an eye for detail. The staff is very welcoming and makes you feel like family. Highly recommend!

Dr. Bucci and her team are amazing. They listen and communicate with you so you know whats going on the entire visit. She is a perfectionist and that is the highest compliment I can give! She will do whatever it takes to make it perfect, good enough just wont do. Our family visits her and the team regularly. Our kid looks forward to going to the dentist! Keep it up Oakwood Dental!

Just had two fillings and bonding on my two front teeth. I can't begin to explain how easily this all went. Dr. Bucci has such a great touch and I truly consider her an artist as well as a Dentist. NO PAIN WHATSOEVER, and I was out of there in 90 minutes. The staff is super professional and everyone is friendly. Appointments run on time and the office is meticulously clean and state of the art. Don't listen to the haters. Dr. Bucci is a wonderful, compassionate and talented professional. Oakwood Dental is my happy dental place after a lifetime of dental paranoia with other providers.

GET A SECOND OPINION! My entire family has been going to Dr Bucci for years, since she took over the practice in 2011. Initially we were happy with her cleanings and typical run of mill dentistry. However, over the past year and a half, we have been sold services that were unnecessary and extremely expensive. Most recently, my husband went in with tooth pain and was told a prior root canal tooth had cracked and needed to be extracted and an implant needed to be put in (at a cost of roughly $4k AFTER insurance).
He was also told that he had gum disease that needed a "deep cleaning" at an additional cost of $200 after ins. We went to another highly recommended dentist in the area and were told that not only does he not have any gum issues (and absolutely no need for a deep cleaning) but the tooth that they claimed was cracked based on xrays they took, was in fact NOT cracked and did not need to be removed.
In addition, our new dentist saw 2 failing fillings (put in by Dr Bucci) that needed work BEFORE they failed to avoid costly and invasive treatments. Why was this not brought up during my husbands most recent visit where an exam AND X-rays were done by Dr Bucci? My feeling is that Dr B would rather wait for them to fail and possibly need more extensive/costly work done.
Finding out that a permanent removal of a tooth and a $4200 bill were completely unnecessary was the last straw. Please ALWAYS go get a second opinion, especially when it comes to the advice of Dr Bucci. We are thoroughly happy with our new dentist who is honest and more reasonably priced. Also, When I tried to get our medical records from them to forward to our new dentist, they stopped answering my calls after the second time I called. (They have caller ID). I attempted 5x to get them, still have not received anything from them. DEFINITELY GET A SECOND OPINION!

What started out as our older daughter, getting a referral from her, now husband, then fiancee. She needed work, and she has a fear of dentists, due to a few bad experiences. She continued to talk about Dr. Bucci, and was so pleased with her bedside manner, and her immaculate work. She uses the top of the line material's, and does all the work herself.
She has an excellent cleaning girl, who is the absolute best! Doesn't miss a thing! After the reviews from our daughter, we wanted to try her out. For our 31st Anniversary, she paid for us both to get a full, and very thorough check-up. I asked which insurance could help us out. My husband needs over $10,000 worth of work, and I luckily, just needed a cleaning, and 4 small cavities to fill.
With Aetna, it cut the costs in half. Our youngest who is 26, ended up trying her out, also, and is now a patient. The premium for the year was only $269.00 for all 4 of us for a year, and it saved a lot!. It also, includes vision, and prescriptions. The front desk can give you their information in case your uninsured, excetra. She takes PPOs etc. She is worth every penny! She knows more than the average dentist, and will help with preventative care also. Dr, Bucci is the best! You will her also!

Yay! Love getting my teeth done with Dr Bucci and you will too. Office staff is super nice and the equipment is state of the art. Went in for one tooth and came out with two as Dr Bucci found a solution for a tooth I lost a long time ago. Who knew that could happen. Very happy now. Time to go eat some steak!

How trips to the dental office can be enjoyable sounds impossible, But Dr. Bucci and staff are truly second to none. A HUGE quality they have is everything (from my experience) runs on time! No annoying waits in the lobby, then annoying waits in the chair, etc. They are usually waiting for me, and once I step in the office I am out in no time. Dr. Bucci really cares about her patients and only suggests what needs to be done, but also has called me out on things like.not flossing!
She does it with a smile but get the message across loud and clear, all for her patients well being! Staff is fantastic, office is great, and their follow up is incredible. Mystified why there are a couple of negative reviews on here. I guess some go on Yelp only to complain. That being said, this place is the best (and yes. I am flossing regularly!)

We moved here in Thousand Oaks last year July and needed a new dental place for cleaning every 3 months. My husband found this place on Yelp and he took me there. First appointment went fine and we set up another appointment for cleaning. A week before my appointment I called them to see if they can re-schedule my appointment since it's my working day.
The lady who answered my call was rude. I explained her I can't be there and asked her if there is any available appointment for me and this is what she told me "It's booked till June". I called her mid March and she said their place is booked till june instead of offering me another appointment. They haven't followed up with me since.
I am in need of cleaning and here I am still searching for a new dental place I can rely on. I am so disappointed with this place. Save your money and go elsewhere if you are busy working person like me. They will not even bother to reschedule the appointment for you. You should hire professional people to answer the phone calls. P.S: They still haven't send us the refund check from our first visit. It's almost a year now from our first visit. Not happy at all.

So the first visit was good. Hygienists are really nice and friendly, but the admin side could use a drastic improvement. They owe me a refund of over $200 from overpaying in December. It's now June and I have yet to receive it. They told me in March that it was in the mail. Also, I haven't seen the dentist since the first visit. In my last dental office, everyone was super friendly and accommodating, and the dentist would always stop by to say hello and check in.
I felt like part of the family there. This dental office, however, I don't look forward to at all. Disappointed after reading so many great reviews initially. On the search for a new dentist.

I moved to the area a few months back and I'm so glad I found a great dentist. The office has state of the art equipment and a fully paperless process to get you setup as a patient. Dr. Laura explained to me every issue with my teeth, created a plan and was very clear about what and why did I need. She is very gentle and hardly felt any discomfort during my visits.
I felt very well taken care of, and they worked with my insurance company without me doing anything other than providing my information. Oh and I love they provided me with headphones and the music of my preference while working on my teeth :

Loved the experience I had at Oakwood Dental. Dr. Bucci was so good at explaining what she was doing. I really feel that I can trust her with my oral health. She did a great job putting me at ease while she was working on me. Her office feels very new and she has a lot of state of the art dental equipment. My office visit was very positive and I would recommend anyone that needs an outstanding dentist to go to Oakwood Dental.
