During the initial examination, we will be able to determine the best possible treatment for your individual needs.
If you're missing one or more teeth, you may be embarrassed to smile and may have a hard time chewing and speaking. Bridges help maintain the shape of your face and improve your bite by replacing missing teeth. Fast completion time (2 weeks or less), convenience of cemented appliance, and reasonable cost have made bridges the most common replacement option with our patients. They often comment that having the confidence that their glued in bridge will never come out and embarrass them, improves their self-esteem.

TERRIBLE! Please if you are in search for a new dentist office I beg you to go somewhere else. This office FEEDS off of the low-income black and hispanic customers and scams them out of their money. The office ladies are constantly yelling on the phone to customers, giving everyone terrible attitude, my little brother hates going to get his braces checked because he knows he'll have to interact with the mean office ladies and dental assistants.
But wait that's not all! The Dentist never walked through what she was doing to my little brother but to her next patient, who was a white girl, she coddled and explained to her everything and was even laughing talking about their days. The Office ladies are even more terrible! All they do is flirt with the male doctor. Screaming loudly about getting drunk, going to clubs, and getting tattoos in an office full of children!
Their professionalism is terrible. I know for a FACT that all these 5 star reviews are written by them or their family's because as soon as you want into this place, there is always a customer not satisfied with their service. It is so sad to see this place still operating. They take advantage of low income minorities. PLEASE DO NOT COME

We paid the full braces treatment for my brother and when they shut down for covid he missed some appts. They reimbursed him just 2 treatments then said that he needed to pay $145 monthly for 6-9 more months and that if we don't want to continue treatment that we look for somewhere else to remove the braces because they dont want to be liable. Dont ever come here unless you want to be scammed out of so much more money.

This Dental office has an advertisement for new patients first visit $49 on their exterior. I called and asked about it and they confirmed that indeed it was $49 so I made an appointment for my 2 year old son, my wife, and I. Upon arrival they asked for payment up front. They stated that for my son it was $115 because children are harder to deal with to perform x-rays on.
My son went in and cooperated with them making his visit literally no more than 15 minutes total. The dentist looked at his teeth for about 2 minutes and rinsed his mouth with fluoride. That was it. So I was still confused as to why it was $115? I asked the so called "office manager" if it was possible to get a discount because of how smooth it went and she said no. that the dentist who saw my son was a "specialist"?
I thought every dentist Is considered a specialist. This is really false advertising and sad that they would charge $115 for the most easiest 15 minute appointment of their day. Taking advantage of people and lying to make easy money is the worst you could do. Definitely taking this up with the California Board of Dental.

Highly recommend this place, I came in with a toothache and Dr. Kim was so kind and did so well in explaining my different options. He was very gentle and cool and I didn't feel a thing! Lucy the office manager is so sweet and kind, she explained my copays and different payment options. Definitely recommending people to come here. Great staff! Thank you guys!

Dr. Kim is awesome! I hate the dentist but he's so funny and tries to distract you that I'm able to sit in the chair long enough to get my work done! He did a great job of making sure I'm numb enough. My mom indeed up switching dentists too after my experience and I can confidently say I've found my dentist!

Going to the dentist is never fun. I had huge Anxiety and these guys were excellent! Doctor Tim rocks! I've never been happier with my dental work. They made me feel comfortable and I had a major procedure done. My procedures were a lot of money and they were able to arrange financing that I could afford. Worth 5 stars
