FOR YOUR SAFETY do not see Dr. Edwardian for any of your dental needs. I went to his practice to treat a toothache that he claimed needed a root canal and was shocked by his distance from the truth. I endured 2 weeks of pain caused by 3 of his "temporary" plugs failing within days of operation, one of which before I even arrived home. It wasn't until I went to another dentist that the terrifying reality came to light.
It was clear that the tooth never needed to be opened in the first place leaving me, in my early 20s, with a tooth that will later in life need to be removed due to Dr. Edwardian's false judgment. I do have faith that he once ran a wonderful practice, however, in this modern age of medical technology, and his aging along side it, he has clearly lost his ability to find the best approach to meeting dental needs.

I'm exceedingly happy with the dental service I received. The work was excellent with a quick turnaround time on my crown and bridge. They made it as painless as possible. Even the little things you bite down on for an x-ray didn't have sharp points on it! They also went the extra mile to make sure the fit and feel were perfect. They referred me to an excellent endodontist for a root canal as well. I'd recommend them to anyone!

I've been going here for about 2 months now and it's alright. The actual dentists, dental assistants, and hygienists are good. They are friendly and get the job done. However, the front desk/reception team I am not a fan of. They hid prices and just overall not friendly. Even while I'm waiting for my appointment, I've heard how they communicate to others on the phone or in person. Very shady and rude. Like I said the actual people doing the dental work are friendly and get the job done but the front desk really makes you not want to come back

It's difficult finding a dentist from a list, which is what I i had to do. I'm so glad I choose them. I needed a lot of work done. I got a root canal, 3 fillings and 3 crowns. My last dentist said I needed my last 2 wisdom teeth removed but I was told from this dentist that it wasn't necessary. I like that the dentist asks if I'd like to view my xrays while he tells me what treatment I need.
He is also nice to his patients and the technicians. He's always asking if I need a break or if his technician needs anything. Asks them periodically how its going. A lot of dentists just bark orders. I like that the office has specialists on staff so I don't have to find one that takes my insurance. The periodontist on staff was great with my root canal. My crowns look perfect. They blend in perfectly. He also didn't do a lot of drilling once they were glued in. The mold was pretty much perfect and that never happens.

I was referred to this place by a dentist and so far I have to say this place is very shady in terms of hiding prices from you. I called in to setup an appointment and asked for the pricing for wisdom tooth removal, but they were able to change the conversation to setting up an appointment. They called me back to confirm the appointment so I asked them again to verify the pricing, the lady on the phone insisted to come in to do the X-ray in order to figure out how much it would actually cost.
I told the lady I needed to get a clear idea of what I'm getting into and call my insurance to verify the pricing, but the lady kept insisting me to come in and do the X-ray first. This is very unprofessional and it seems like they care about money than customer experience. It took me a few times to get her to tell me the average pricing for 4 wisdom teeth removal.
I understand that you have to see what your working with, but you can not simply give me an estimate? People want to know what they are getting themselves into! I should have checked the reviews on here first and I will not be visiting this place EVER. Word of Advice Call your insurance to verify the pricing they give you, save yourself the trouble.

If I could give this office a negative 10 I would. I recently went to see the endodontist there. Before I went to my appointment I called and gave the receptionist my insurance information. This office is contracted with my insurance. when I got there, they had a endodontist that was not contracted with my insurance do the exam. I did not know at the time, that this endodontist was not contracted with my dental plan.
I have PPO insurance so I can go anywhere, but if I go to a contracted dentist My insurance pays more. the next day I got my estimate by email. The total estimate was $2310. for a root canal. My portion was $713. So I called my insurance and was told that only one icd code was covered and the rest were not. At this point I called several other dental offices and their estimates came in at 1/3 of the cost North County Dental was charging.
I called back spoke to Peggy, asked her to pre-authorize my treatment and she flew off the handle. She stated she was already giving me a discount, and if she has to pre-authorize my treatment the cost will be more then what she quoted me and she will charge me then higher amount. At this point I told her "Then I'm going somewhere else". I called the office and spoke to the office manager Debbie Connoly.
She apologized for what happened and she would take if upnwith Peggy. I asked to speak to the owner Dr Edwards. Debbie said he was not in. I called back the next day left a msg. No call back. Debbie called and said that the doctor wanted to know if I wanted to add anything else to my complaint. I told Debbie I simply wanted to speak to the owner. That never happened.
I ended up going to the office of Stuart Chang DDS. in VIsta. They were professional explained everything to me and my estimate was $828. My out of pocket was $196. The ICD code included everything I needed. The endodotist there also was very professional. as he did my root canal he kept asking if everything was ok.

The night of December 30th I cracked my tooth, it was very painful and I was embarrassed of my new look. My regular dentist was closed the next day due to New Years Eve. I was getting anxious that nobody would be able to see me but luckily North County Dental Care was one of the only dental offices open and able to see me so last minute! My first impression of the place was that it was very clean, friendly, and helpful.
Overall I'm super happy and thankful for Dr. Joe and everyone else who took their time to really help me. Luckily I didn't need a root canal, just a crown. I was super worried about how it would look but I'm very happy with the end result. Thank you!

These guys are absolutely AMAZING!i ended up with a massive tooth infection which was causing me serious amounts of pain. They fit me in on a Saturday afternoon while they were super busy and helped me out big time! Dr. Aznavour was so amazingly patient and kind to me seeing I'm a gigantic baby when it comes to the dentist! I couldn't recommend him and his entire team more!

I needed extensive work on my teeth, and was also suffering from severe gum recession. I was a bit worried about the quality of the limited number of dentist available in my current plan, however I'm happy to report that my fears were unfounded. Dr. Adourian and his team are truly a top-notch organization! Their professionalism is impressive, not to mention the added bonus of kindness, caring and old-world manners. I love my new gorgeous new smile, enhanced by my now healthy gums!

Update: They did not honor their treatment plan price agreed upon and paid for prior to the procedure. They insist through the whole process "we will honor this price" and sure enough here come more bills months later. Dishonest And shady in my opinion. I am extremely fortunate to actually have legal benefits at work and thus the means to deal with this kind of nightmare, but I think it's a good idea to find another dental office if you need a large procedure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr Edward and their team did a great job on my implants.
They look great, and they were much cheaper than I was expecting to pay. NCD also helped me get 0 interest financing over 2 years. Thats awesome so they get a big thumbs up from me.

First time going to this dentist and reading the yelp review's as Im sitting in the lobby you know I definitely had my guard up. but I was taken back by a really awesome dude I think his name was Cole. from start to finish my entire experience was nothing less than perfect the girls at the front counter took a little while to greet me because there was nobody there when I walked in but other than that it was awesome and I definitely am excited I found a new dentist and I will be going back here for all of my dental care needs dr. Joe was amazing and was up front with me and said my teeth look great I really had no concerns just a small cavity but hey after not being to a dentist in 4 years what could you expect that's amazing!

All I have to say is make sure you get a second opinion. This place tried telling me and my wife we needed work that we didn't. We went and got a second opinion (paid out of pocket) from a reputable family dentist and they confirmed they tried to upsell us for stuff we didn't need (9 extra non-existing cavities, unneeded deep cleanings, etc). This place is the Jiffy Lube of dental care. All about the dollar bills and not about the patient. You've been warned!

I can't say enough about this office and ALL the staff. After too many years of fears, I had to find a dentist for a broken tooth. I told them up front my fears and they were amazing. They took their time, they were SUPER gentle and very knowledgeable. Didn't try to "sell" me things I didn't need. In fact, I started bringing my son here too! I'm no longer afraid of the dentist! Thanks, Dr Edward, Dr. Beck and all the staff!
