Did you know that dental implants are frequently the best treatment option for replacing missing teeth? Everything from your morning cup of coffee to your glass of wine with dinner contributes to discoloring of the teeth. Just like on Extreme Makeover, we can completely revamp a person's smile with the use of porcelain veneers and crowns!. Dr. Ryan is a graduate of the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco.

He completed a residency program in Hospital Dentistry at the University of California at San Francisco and was a member of the faculty in the School of Medicine and School of Dentistry for nine years.

At CCD we understand that many people have deep-rooted fears and anxiety related to going to the dentist. Virtually half of the population does not seek regular dental care due mainly to anxiety and the fear of pain associated with dental treatment. At CHICO CREEK DENTAL, our mission is to provide state-of-the-art dental services in a safe, relaxing, and anxiety free manner.
I have always had a severe gag reflex and ever since I found out about Chico Creek Dental and IV Sedation Dentistry I love it! I recommend them, the relief from the gagging and the additional benefit of no pain is wonderful! We have not used mercury-containing dental amalgam (silver) fillings since 1988 at CHICO CREEK DENTAL.
I had found what I had always wanted from a dentist but didn't think existed; dental work with little or no resulting discomfort before, during or after procedures performed on me. Did you know that dental implants are frequently the best treatment option for replacing missing teeth? Rather than resting on the gum line like removable dentures, or using adjacent teeth as anchors like fixed bridges, dental implants are long-term replacements that your dentist surgically places in the jawbone.Thirty years ago patients with missing teeth would have had no alternative to a fixed bridge or removable denture to restore their ability to eat, speak clearly and smile.
A root canal or endodontic treatment is used to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or has become infected. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. Without treatment, the tissue surrounding the tooth will become infected and an abscess may form.

Wow! Wonderful experience for a dental procedure. Dr drew me a beautiful detailed picture of my tooth while explaining the circumstances surrounding the tooth and procedure that I underwent. I'm going to frame it, lol it's beautiful, I kid not!. and I learned a ton about the anatomy of the tooth. He's the real deal! and his help is all top shelf. Huge recommendation to all. I understand they're great with kids too. Location, good parking puts Chico Creek Dental at six stars!

I have been a patient at Chico Creek Dental for 40 years. Dr. Ryan is a true professional in every sense of the word & has met all my dental needs. Candy does a wonderful job cleaning my teeth. The staff in this office are great as well. Everyone makes my visits a pleasure!

Dr. Ryan took me in over the holidays when I needed a root canal. My regular dentist screwed up and even though their message said they were on call, they weren't. I returned to Dr. Ryan's office today for a cleaning and met their hygenist, Candy. She did a great job. The front staff were friendly and helpful too.

I would NOT recommend this place at all! They overcharged my husband by $244! $538 for 2 basic fillings. The dentist left one tooth blue and this same tooth now needs to be pulled because they didn't get the cavity all the way out. They refuse to refund us. They charged us the full amount while accepting $180 from insurance and now will not even reimburse the money the insurance payed even tho we already payed it. We will be taking them to small claims court. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! ABSOLUTLET HORRIBLE! I WILL ALSO BE CALLING STATE LICENSING AND BBB.

Dr Ryan and his staff are exceptional. I had been avoiding the dentist for forever and before even coming in for my first visit he was on the phone checking on me over the weekend because I was in such pain. This office is full of understanding knowledgeable and kind professionals. I would recommend their services to ANYONE and EVERYONE!

Everything was nice in the beginning, as soon as they found out I had work done in Mexico, suddenly I had violated a rule, because I have denti-cal they cannot see me. Even if I pay out of pocket. the fact is that he didn't want to give me dental care. His staff is more concerned with some arbitrary law then helping people. More and more I'm seeing this type of violence

Hi, I would not recommend this business. He is not honest and overcharges the insurance for Everything. I would get a second opinion and make Sure he was upfront with all billing.

Dr. Ryan is exceptional at his work on so many levels. I am so grateful to have found such a great dentist. I had a terrible infection that was the result of some work done by another Dr. Dr Ryan recognized that my infection wasn't responding to the antibiotic my former Dr. had prescribed and called me in on a Saturday to change my antibiotic.

The infection which had been persistent went away. The first time he worked on my mouth I was shocked that I never felt the injections. After having a few procedures done I am finally trusting. I expect to be treated gently and always am. I used to suffer terribly from dental pain and now I don't. Excellent bridgework. The staff at Chico Creek Dental are also amazing and this is the only office that I have Ever been to where I am seen when my appointment is scheduled. Thank you Chico Creek Dental for making going to the dentist a great experience.
