I came to Dr. Latha due to an emergency and have been her patient for the past three years. She is very professional, thorough, gentle and patient, and she explains in details what's going to happen before every treatment. Recently, she has fixed for me a front tooth that has broken years ago and the result is so esthetic, it looks like the tooth has never even been broken :

Its really something to smile about when you find the right dentist who understands your every fear and has the gentlest hands. I have been a patient of Dr Latha's for about 7-8 years now and every time am blown away by her expertise and constant skills update. The office is MODERN and she has all the tech gadgets one would need, super convenient to make an appt with texts and emails.
Yes they take care of you're insurance, make everything easy, give you blankets and chapsticks and fuss over you. But my reason for going here is the honest and sincere care I receive. I trust the work immensely. Have had several gum issues and used to have terrible TMJ pain. Now I have finally gotten my gums better with her laser treatments and wear my night guard and my TMJ and me at my happiest. Love to be pain free and have faith that my teeth and gums are in the best care and no more dental nightmares.

I did not have a good experience with Latha Subramanian, DDS. Her bedside manner was unpleasant. She made it seem like a favor when answering any questions. She was condescending to the point where I felt uncomfortable coming into her office. Her procedural skills were subpar, her tools old. Her drill was incredibly loud compared to other offices.
Her cavity filling was much longer and painful than other dentist I have been to. Recovery time was much longer and I am still feeling pain after her procedure. Her office is old and not as clean as you would like from a dental office. It is difficult to get a hold of anyone at the office as her dental assistant is also her front desk receptionist.
Her prices are also significanlty higher than other dentists. Please do your research before committing to a procedure with her. Her treatment plan also consisted of far more work than the second opinion I recieved. After my visit with her, I do not trust her skills nor her decision making. I initially picked her from all the positive reviews, however I learned first hand that she was not the right fit.

I chipped my front tooth years ago and had it fixed twice by another dentist. Dr. Latha fixed my front tooth by using a "Laser" so the filling really stuck and this made the difference. Very happy with the work and the "Laser" was quick, painless and effective. I would recommend Dr. Latha and her very professional staff to anyone for fast, thorough and painless dentistry. Thank you!

Excellent dentist who is skilled and also caring. Have been a patient over a decade now and would highly recommend her. Its important for dentists to be honest and ethical and I find that in Dr Latha-she is conservative in protecting my teeth and explains pros and cons of any treatment. My lower tooth was cracked and she was gentle in putting a partial cap on it and helped save it from a root canal. The office is welcoming and up to date and they communicate with text/emails and send me before/after pics also. I smile big and wide with nice teeth thanks to her.

Dr. Latha has been my dentist for 18 years. She was as good with me as a child as she has been with me as an adult - I have NO fear of dentists because I've been in her safe hands from the start. Across all dental issues, from cavities, to anxiety induced grinding and wine/coffee stains, her team has always been incredibly professional. The highlight of my experience with her, though, has to be the time she helped my procrastinating bum out by going into office during the COVID shelter-in-place to get a print of an invoice that was 15 months old - so I could meet an FSA submission deadline. That's so far and above what you can expect, and I couldn't have appreciated it more. Go with Dr. Latha for a healthcare professional who truly cares.

They tried to tell me that I need services for over 1500$ while I don't. I decided to move on to another dentist and when I asked to get my x rays they told me that my insurance company didn't pay for my visit (although they already did, got a transaction number!) and if I want my x rays I can pay for my visit myself, almost 300$. To be more accurate - according to the law, I have a right to get my xrays even if I didn't pay for my visit. Definitely not pleasant experience and do not recommend.

I've been a patient of Dr. Latha's since she bought the business several years ago. I value that Latha is both a clinician and an artist -- when she's repairing my teeth, I can tell she is using strong technical skill as well as an artist's eye to ensure that my mouth ends up as beautiful as she thinks it should be. She has cared for 4 generations of my family with 6 of us currently under her care. Latha is a passionate lifelong learner. She's pushed in hard to master the craft of dentistry to her highest abilities.

Dr. Latha is very friendly and takes excellent care of her patients. Having so many dental issues, Latha is very patient each time I am there. I have been with her for the last 2+ years, her office echos her attitude as well. They are friendly and are swift in setting up appointments, following through on appointments. One can never go wrong when choosing her for a dentist.

Our family has been coming here for dental services 6-7 years. We are always happy and satisfied with the service. My most recent visit was an extremely exceptional. Dr. Latha is more than happy to spend an extra time to make my teeth look exactly the way I want. Dr. Latha is very friendly to talk to and she is very good with children. The office is cute with Dr. Latha's art works; those are amazing. I enjoy looking at them while I am waiting for my appointment. I am highly recommended Dr. Latha for anyone that is looking for a new and professional dental office.

I retract my influential review. The focus is not on provided Excellent dentistry! The focus is on how to charge the maximum for the most basic to complex dentistry. The staff Amy is no longer there, "cause she did not get the billing charges" Latha Subramanian. My adult daughter sad, she felt pressure by the dentist on her visits. She went to car a cried.
She got her teeth checked and cleaned every 6 months although she was pressured to get her teeth clean every three months as regular treatment. How could her have a "whole" in her tooth caused by the cavity. Cost of pain and emergency attention, $900.00. My other adult daughter had complex dentistry due to braces. She made her feel so bad that she left in tears. Repeated not provided planned service as she waited In the lobby! Stating that she needed to have a total mouth of veneers at the age of 27.
At the cost of "a small car" end quote. And other issues with my personal care. Needless to say we left her service. Going to our new dentist my daughter received the treatment needed in two appointments. At the cost of NOT A SMALL Car, and she has ALL of her teeth that are restored at the cost of a responsible ethical service and professional dentist.

In my young years, I had always heard of many stereotypes about dentists. Drills coming into teeth, rough dentists, dentists that cause discomfort and don't stop when you feel in pain, but Dr. Latha's office was a super different experience from the stereotypes. She was very gentle, and always stopped when I felt uncomfortable. Feeling uncomfortable was also very rare, due to the option of watching shows while you are in a cleaning. Her office is very kid friendly, and I recommend bringing your kid to her office. It is by far the best dental office I can think of.

I went in to Dr. Latha after my pediatric dentist told me it was time to graduate;) I had not been to a dentist in over a year and had some cavities. Dr. Latha has the latest technologies that she reviews and explains thoroughly. Upon finding a cavity underneath a filling I had gotten 10 years ago, she performed an Onlay and was incredibly patient with me.
A few months later, she was performing a sealant and discovered a cavity that was a lot deeper than originally thought. I have very sensitive teeth and a 40 minute appointment quickly turned into 2 hours as I kept raising my hand, asking them to take breaks. Dr. Latha remained patient and steady, going at my pace and making sure I was comfortable. She helped make sure the procedure was FULLY covered by my insurance and followed up with me via text message later that evening (around 9 pm!) 100% recommend seeing her!

I feel that this office is very focused on sales, sales, sales and scaring people into a lot of expensive procedures. The office is fine for a cleaning, they did a good job. But they will fine all the faults they can to create a lot of charges. If you like a lot of procedures then you will like this office, otherwise, I would stay away. Dr likes to talk more than listen.

I have had the good fortune of having Dr. Latha as my dentist in Mt. View CA for over 10 years. She has taken care of my entire family. She has done awesome job on cleaning, filling, fixing broken teeth, crown, on/in lay. We trust her work and her advice completely, and all of her works have been outstanding. We highly recommend Dr. Latha.

Dr. Latha and co. are great! They use new laser technology to make procedures faster and more efficient. They are easy to work with and take care of insurance claims. Getting to their office is easy and parking is no problem. They open early which is convenient when you prefer to go in before work. As a bonus, I get a free chap stick when i go in for services. :

Been going to Dr Latha for years. Always a wonderful experience. She is up to date with the latest tech --- no numbing or drilling as she uses a laser. How cool is that? Also if I need more work than a filling it's done the same day, Dr. Latha did a crown for me with just one appointment, no temporary crown. Armida her assistant is so fast and right there to answer any question I have about my appointment. Amy gives me all of my insurance estimates before the appointment and has even had my exact payment amount from delta before I leave.
She also is great at remembering my preferred appointment times. Grace cleans my teeth and they have never felt cleaner. All in all a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone! She also is great with my little one who won't sit still for anything.

I was seeing Dr. Latha for 7 years before moving out of state. I am devastated at losing the best dentist I've ever had. Here are the top 5 reasons that Dr. Latha's office is like no other: 1. They use lasers to fill your cavities. That means no more drills. Ever. 2. I HATED getting dental work before Dr. Latha. She and her staff went above and beyond to find creative solutions to lessen my discomfort like no other dentist had ever tried.
I finally wasn't miserable in that dentist chair anymore 3. Incredibly qualified - Dr. Latha is dedicated to continuing to learn the latest methods and increase insurance coverage for those new methods. She is never content to just do the same thing over and over. 4. The office assistant, Amy, always worked closely with me and my insurance provider to make sure I got the maximum coverage with the smallest effort. 5. Dr. Latha, her assistant Amy, and everyone else in the office are some of the warmest and sweetest people out there. They always ask about my daughter and follow up on any other recent life events. It feels like visiting family.

I've been a patient of Dr. Latha for about a year and I'm very happy with the treatments/services I've received from her and her staff. She's highly skilled in her craft and she keeps up with the latest technological advances in dentistry. What impressed me even more is how careful she is in recommending treatments. When an old crowns of mine failed, I was told by 2 different dentists that I needed a root canal. Dr Latha was able to save my tooth from a root canal with extensive repairs and a new crown. Although her charges may be higher ($250 Laser Treatment Fee not covered by insurance), the results she delivers are worth every penny.

I went to Dr Latha for the first time with severe pain in my gums. I had called in late the previous evening and due to my condition they had accommodated me in their tight schedule. Dr Latha came across as a very friendly and sociable person. She clearly explained my condition to me and what she was going to do to treat it. She also took my insurance information and clarified my coverage and out of pocket expenses prior to starting my treatment.
She took great care of me, kept a very close watch on my cavities all through my pregnancy and made sure that they did not worsen! I am now taking my baby son to her and would do so in the future too. A special mention of her receptionist/insurance coordinator Amy who is very polite and v helpful in co-ordinating Referrals. Kudos to Dr Latha for her commitment, friendliness and great staff. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I have been going to Dr. Latha for the past couple years and I must say, she has done beautiful work with my teeth. She has a unique sense of humor and makes me feel like I just saw her the week before--old friends catching up. She is professional, very upfront and honest about the condition of my teeth and has only made me feel as comfortable as humanly possible every time.
I believe she has rid me of my irrational fear of the dentist. Big props on that one! Amy, her receptionist is exceptionally pleasant and courteous and Roxy, one of the hygienists is such a sweetheart and extremely thorough. So glad I found this dentist! It's a nice place to go if you're looking for a green practice and an office that doesn't make you feel far from home.
