I had a really great experience at Aaron Santos DDS office and wanted to share, especially for anyone with kids who might be a little nervous about appointments. I brought my twins in, and the entire staff was incredibly patient, calm, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. They took the time to explain everything in a way the kids could understand, which made a huge difference. What could have been a stressful visit turned into something smooth and surprisingly easy. Dr. Santos was especially good with them--gentle, attentive, and genuinely engaging, which helped keep them relaxed the whole time. On top of that, I also had a consultation for myself and really appreciated the thorough approach. Instead of just focusing on quick fixes, they laid out a clear, preventative care plan that actually makes sense long-term. It feels like they're focused on keeping problems from happening, not just reacting when they do. The office is clean, well-run, and you can tell they care about doing things the right way. If you're looking for a dentist who is great with kids and also takes a thoughtful, preventative approach to dental health, this is definitely a place worth checking out. read more

I met Dr. Santos through a friend of mines. My experience at his office was very good, I haven't been to the dentist for a couple of years so i was a bit nervous coming to the dentist. I just came in for an exam and cleaning. Staff is really nice and helped me get started. before we got started, Dr Santos made me feel really comfortable and walked me through what he was about to do. I enjoyed my exam and cleaning and there was no discomfort. Will visit him more often as I live close by down the street. read more

This will be a lengthy review. I'll start with a bit of back history. I lost my father to cancer. He went to his dentist with a toothache that was actually a tumor causing the pain. He was diagnosed and gone within 2 years. So, when I started having tooth pain my anxiety set in. I did some research in my new area and Dr. Santos was at the top of my list. After speaking with a few friends he also came highly recommended. Then I reached out for a recommendation from an oral surgeon that worked with my dad and Dr. Santos' practice was the first name he said. So I made the appointment. Turned out, I too had a type of growth. Dr. Santos was extremely kind as I sat prepregnant in his chair with tears in my eyes, yay for hormones. He sent me over to the oral surgeon, the mass was removed and benign. When I returned to Dr. Santos, he was left with a bit of a mess to work with (and on a budget, as I was paying out of pocket as a SAHM) my gum line had receded greatly and was mostly scar tissue and I desperately wanted to have that "pretty smile everyone else has". We agreed on a process and everything was set up right in his office with 3 different specialist! Dr. Santos being a one-stop shop is so convenient, especially at this point in the process with a newborn at home. Dr. Santos' staff is unmatched! They are so sweet, from greeting Jolie at the front desk (she works hard on the schedule and timing of appointments), and the hygienists, to working with all of the staff in the back (and I mean all of them). There is not a single person in this office I don't trust to do the best work. By this point, I felt more like I was visiting family. I received the best care in such a fragile state. I am truly thankful for the kindness Dr. Santos has shown me. His amazing vision for my new smile came to life and far exceeded my expectations. With the help from all of his team I now have a smile I'm proud of. Thank you Dr. Santos for making this all happen for me, I appreciate you so much! IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR DENTAL CARE, LOOK NO FURTHER. read more

As someone who used to be scared of the dentist, I can honestly say that Dr. Aaron Santos and his team have changed that for me throughout the years. Not only are all of the staff friendly and welcoming, but you can tell that they genuinely care about their patients. I have been going to Dr. Santos and his team for over 13 years now, and they are the only people I trust to work on my son's teeth now as well. If you are looking for a new dentist, Aaron Santos and his team are the best of the best! read more

I wholeheartedly recommended Dr Santos! Dr Santos and his team are simply wonderful. My teeth look fabulous and my routine cleanings are always pain free. He is very thoughtful in his approach to caring for me and my family. He pays attention to what my insurance covers and is clear in the billing so there are no surprises and he is flexible. He is the best dentist! read more

I'm very impressed with the care I received at this office. Monica did an excellent job with my deep cleaning very thorough and gentle. Sheila was warm and helpful during the checkout process, and Dr. Santos provided outstanding care and clear explanations. A truly great team! read more

This wasn't my first time visiting Dr. Santos's office but I've always had the best experience. The office staff if so friendly and welcoming. The office is very clean and their equipment is all very new and state of the art. Becky was my hygienist and she was so knowledgeable and gentle. Dr. Santos is very professional and made my long appointment very manageable and he made sure I had ZERO discomfort during my procedure. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist. read more

The Clinic is clean and the admin staff is very kind. However, I found this dentist highly non-transparent, very pushy to do certain procedures at high cost for his own benefit (which was not needed as I figured out through another dentist later on), and very irrespecutful to other cultures. For me, I do not care how good a dentist is if his ethical principles are not in place. Not trustable. read more

Doctor Santos and his staff are extremely kind and thorough. I have major anxiety regarding dental visits and they always make me feel comfortable and walk me through all steps of the procedure. The dental hygienists Monica and Becky are extremely efficient and gentle as well! I highly recommend Dr. Santos's office for anyone who is looking for quality dental care. read more

Aaron A Santos, DDS - To my new Dentist Dr Arron Santos DDS and his super nice and efficient staff ! Thank you !!!!! - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Los Gatos, California

Aaron is a wonderful dentist, I've had some issues with my teeth, and I'm not really a fan of medical procedures. But they have been so professional and were able to do it all in a peaceful environment. The office is very clean and have air purifiers everywhere since the pandemic started. I definitely recommend it. read more

I was recommended to Dr Santos by my dentist in Orange County after I moved up to Los Gatos. The Staff is friendly and the facility is clean and with the latest technology. Dr.Santos is a perfectionist and does amazing work. He has been extremely friendly and listens and understands his patients. I have had multiple things done from fillings to crowns to root canals and it has always been as pleasant as a dentist visit can be. The hygienist is also extremely friendly and careful and makes sure that your experience is positive. I would definitely recommend . Thank you Everyone at Dr. Santos' dentistry! read more

I went here because I was having issues with crowns that were not lasting and were falling out that were done by a previous dentist. I was a project but Dr. Santos and his team of magicians are amazing! From the front office team to the team that controls the chairs. I have never been so please with a dentist. I would fully recommend this place to anyone that has a fear of the chair or has a project that needs to be handled. They are truly up to the task. read more

I can't say anything but how awesome Dr. Santos and his staff are. The first time going in their was because of the ad I heard on KRTY like 50 times. I wasn't happy with the dentists so I decided to try them out all bc I have listened to Gary and Julie in the mornings on KRTY and I trust what they say. I was greeted by Alex and Tina and they are super sweet. Becky cleans my teeth and what she has introduced me to has literally changed how I take care of my teeth and noticed the difference from July to Nov. She is the best! I've also had a very awesome visit with Sarah and the rest of the staff. In less than 5 months, I can tell you, they are great! Dr. Santos is funny and very knowledgeable. I referred my husband and my mom to this dentist and I will continue to refer people there! I absolutely hate, hate going to the dentist but I make sure I keep all my appointments here! Thank you to Dr.Santos and his staff!! You guys are awesome!!! read more

Wonderful dentist office! Dr. Santos is very thorough, gentle, and polite. The front desk ladies are amazing and always work their magic to fit you in at the times that work for you. Bushra is the dental hygienist who I always go see although they are all excellent. She is so kind, gentle and friendly and always does what she can to give me options. I never feel like I am getting ripped off when I leave here.The office is located in a convenient area and the equipment they use here is top of the line. Dr. Santos and his staff really care about your needs, they always make sure you are comfortable during the whole appointment, and the overall procedures are very efficient. Dr. Santos's office does Invisalign and I am halfway though my treatment and already noticing a major difference. I can not wait to see my new smile. Convenient text appointment reminders that you can click on and just add to your calendar on your phone, love it! If I were anyone else I would leave my previous dentist and come here and see Dr. Santos. I highly recommend this office. read more

Dr. Santos is solid. His use of TOP of the line technology is better than most. I also think one of the best qualities a dentist needs to have is being a perfectionist. Dr. Santos is just that and when it comes to your teeth he won't settle for less. read more

Aaron A Santos, DDS - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Los Gatos, California

Dr Aaron is Great and he has Gentle Hygienists! My Wife found him on 1-800-Dentist several years ago when Dr. Aaron's Dad Anthony was working. Dr. Anthony is enjoying retirement! Since then, the Wife & I have been going back and are happy with the service! The Hygienist our relaxed and gentle to your needs.

My previous dentist was located in south san francisco, and living in the south bay made it difficult to schedule appts and want to drive over an hour for appts.. Dr. Santos was recommended by a friend and I'm very happy I listened to that recommendation. I've been going to Dr. Santos for over a year now and it's been a great experience, though I'm not really a big fan of dentist offices. His staff is extremely professional from the office team, the dental hygienist, to Dr. Santos. Over the years I've had quite a bit of dental work done and with the years, there's a need to do maintenance and updates and Dr. Santos been great researching the previous work that had been done with my previous dentist. The first appt with him, he went over the previous work that had been done and a game plan of what I needed to take care of, no pressure to get anything done, but to maintain a healthy smile. Not looking forward to having any dental work, but with Dr. Santos, I'm in good hands. read more

Dr. Santos has fixed my smile! For years I've not been able to find the right dentist and thanks to my wife and the radio I found Dr. Santos! My teeth are white again no more silver! Quick and easy. He has worked with my insurance and everyone in the office is amazing! read more

If you are like I was and you are looking for a dentist, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Santos and his team! I went into his office 5 months ago and I hadn't been to a dentist in close to 20 years. Dr. Santos and his team did not judge or condemn me for the neglect that had taken place in my dental hygiene. They were very supportive and instead created a solution to help me correct the many issues I had in my mouth. The receptionists are very helpful in scheduling around my work and if I need to cancel or reschedule for any reason, they are very understanding. Every person in his office has helped me work through my fear of the dentist that I have had since I was a child. They are so caring and sensitive to my needs and fears. On February 9, 2017, I went in to have a broken tooth removed. Dr. Santos and his team were amazing!! They walked me through EVERY step and put my nerves at ease. The day after my procedure, his staff followed up with me to make sure I was feeling alright and that I wasn't having any issues. The very next week I had a check up to make sure that everything was healing properly and again the very next week he did the same thing! The whole process was awesome, and to be able to say that about getting my tooth pulled is HUGE! I used to panic at the thought of going to the dentist and now I look forward to going. Thank you Dr. Santos and your AMAZING staff for all that you have done to help make my smile the best it can be!! read more

I agree Dr Santos is NOT amazing at all. I can see if you had a bad tooth and he made room for you and relieved your pain you may feel that way. After all he did a $1800 root canal on the same day as a dentist that pays better than a tooth cleaning or cavity fill. If you asked me to fit you in for some work that pays like that I'm fitting you in also. We were looking for a family dentist so I visited 1800dentist.com and found Aaron Santos in Los Gatos. (local) We called and booked appointments for our entire family 2 boys 8 years old, my wife and I. My wife and the boys arrived first when I arrived I found it odd that this guy was Anthony Santos DDS and not Aaron Santos as shown on 1800dentist. However I concluded that his father was the one on 1800dentist and he was taking over the practice, so i assumed he was fully capable, wow how wrong I was. With in the first 6 months we all had major dental work by Dr Santos based on his recommendation. He would tell us we have great insurance and we should take advantage of this while we can. Keep in mind we all came from good dental care back rounds with long history's, having check ups and cleaning every 6mo. Dr Santos is quit pushy I could certainly see where a woman would feel like he is a bully. He had my son in tears and my wife was pissed...lucky me!!! He is not very personable and the conversation that he does carry is between him and his assistant about the remodeling of his home and how his wife wants this and that and how expensive it is but how he has to get it. Then came the remodel of the office. I felt as if I was caught up in a mans dream of material things as he yanked drilled and filled our teeth to fund his and his wife's desire to live the vanity life style. Maybe he feels a need to impress me? Mean while he never considered the people just their money.. He is young and inexperienced, he became a Dentist for the money, not to give people beautiful smiles, shame on him! read more

Since my last review Dr. Santos's office has grown and his service is just getting better and better. read more

Aaron A Santos, DDS - The latest tech... - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Los Gatos, California

Going to the dentist is never at the top 50 of things I want to do. I have had some really terrible experiences, resulting in a seven year fearful hiatus of the dentist. Dr. Santos was recommended to me by a friend who not only goes there, but has been friends with him for quite some time. There was hope. The entire staff here is fantastic. They are all not only awesome at their jobs, they are comforting on a level that dentist-fearing people like myself really NEED. There is no "you're a bad flosser" shaming, and they are fantastic about working with you and your timeline/tolerance (I needed a lot of work, and needed to spread it out over time) for what you need done. The office is lovely! Bonus. I can't wait until I am done getting everything fixed so I only have to see them twice a year, but at least until then I am 100% comfortable with this office and everyone in it. read more

They cleaned my teeth with an ultrasonic scalar! My teeth have never been so clean! The hygienist was very gentle and articulate, and Dr Santos was quick and accurate like a surgeon. I felt very happy there. I can't wait to come back and get my laser periodontal therapy! read more

Dr. Santos is very professional and thoughtful. I like that he's the only dentist here so I know I'll always see him and not a random new dentist each time like when you go to some other bigger dental offices. I also like that he's originally from the San Jose area and also lives in Los Gatos. The office is very nice since it's been recently remodeled, which shows me he's willing to invest back into his patient's care. I also like that it's just minutes from the freeway so it's easy to get to. If you're looking for a dentist in the San Jose area I definitely recommend Dr. Santos and his well trained staff. read more

ok. This is a dentist...This is not exactly the most pleasant thing to do. But the doctor and his assistant are really nice! I am not the easiest patient to work on ! (I move my tongue, can't breather properly, my teeth are smal, I cough...) But they do their best! He calls sometimes if I complained about some pain. The assistant is super cool too. So, I recommend it. Or, if you can just keep your teeth perfect! ...and FLOSS ! That's what he says! read more

I was a bit traumatized by a previous dentist experience and I was very nervous about going to a new one, so I put it off for a long time, too long really. When I finally went to Dr. Santos I was completely put at ease by everybody in the office. I now travel over the hills from Santa Cruz to see these guys and it's totally worth the trip. read more

My wife and I have been going to Dr. Santos for over a year now, and have both had nothing but positive experiences under his care. He's done a lot of work on both of us, getting our oral health back on track after a couple years of neglect from our past dentist (who in hindsight always suspiciously gave nothing but positive feedback). One story that stands out from a couple weeks ago: after having a temporary crown put on, I was feeling some pretty bad discomfort from an inflamed salivary gland around 10:00 at night so sent Dr. Santos a text message. He called right away from the E.R. where his wife was IN LABOR to diagnose my issue and call in a prescription. If that doesn't show commitment to his patients I don't know what does! Also have to give a shout-out to ALL of Dr. Santos's staff. Every one of them without exception is sincerely friendly, extremely professional and exceptional at what they do. read more

Becky was a great hygienist! Gentle and was fast without feeling rushed. My teeth felt really clean after and she did all the things I am used to when getting a cleaning, including using the small metal tools to scrape off plaque and a polish at the end. She even gave me a great tongue scraper that helps a lot with fresh breath. She seemed really knowledgeable and was friendly. I felt comfortable at Santos Dentistry. The staff were nice as well and so was Dr. Santos himself. I finally found a regular dentist again. read more

Dr. Santos is amazing. My co-worker suggested him when I came into work one morning with a terrible tooth ache, I called him at 9am, he got me in for a consult at 9:30 (even though he was booked full with patients that day) and even had me come back for a root canal at 2:30 that same day. Not only was Dr. Santos very gentle, he also was very sensitive to the fact that i have a phobia of dentists. Later, when it was time for me to have an implant finished, Dr. Santos went above and beyond helping me get records from my old Oral Surgeon. When my old surgeon lost my records, Dr. Santos continued to stay in contact with me and the old surgeon via email, even on the weekends to let me know what the progress is. I really appreciate all the work he's done for me so far. I'm very happy with him and will recommend anyone I can. He's the best. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Santos since we relocated to California. I have always had a terrible fear of Dentist to the point of panic attacks. I heard a lot of positive things about this office so I decided to give them a try. I went in for a consultation and was really happy with the staff. I needed extensive dental work done very extensive. This intimidated me and I was ready to just walk away. The office assured me we could go slow and take one step at a time. It has been 3 years and I have an entirely new smile. I feel wonderful about my teeth. Dr Santos and the staff held my hand when I needed it and made sure I was completely comfortable. When I go to the office it is like visiting family. We laugh, joke,talk and I feel like they care about me. This is a great thing. read more

I couldn't be happier with Dr. Aaron Santos Dentistry. The people at the desk are very helpful and do their best to fit me in at times best for my schedule. Hygienists are great and Dr. Santos is very thorough. The office is very modern and is always clean. When I had a question he got back to me quickly. I'm looking forward to being a patient for many years to come! read more

Dr. Santos has been my dentist for years and I think the world of him! I am completely confident in him and he always proves he is skilled and knowledgeable. My whole family goes to Dr. Santos now; my husband, my daughter and her husband. He recommended that I get Invisalign to help my correct my teeth, and I am so happy that I did it! He also advised me to wear a night guard to help with grinding my teeth. He tells me everything I need to know to keep my gums and teeth as healthy as they can be. He really cares about teeth! We love him and his staff too; Mirabelle, Becky, Heather, Shiree, Tammy and Shawntel. It's no problem going to the dentist because everyone is so very nice to me and they feel like family. read more

The office staff is very helpful, polite, and accommodating. Dr. Santos is very professional and thorough in all of his explanations. Throughout Covid, they have done a fantastic job of keeping the office clean and safe for all. I would highly recommend Dr. Santos. read more

I love this dental office. I mean who says they love their dentist but they truly treat you like family. Dr Santos transformed the health of my mouth and improved my smile. All the stuff at the front desk is very accommodating and recognizes you when you come in the door and their dental hygienist is one of a kind. read more

Dr. Santos is by far the best dentist I've ever had. Three years ago, I was studying for the BAR exam when a filling popped out a week before the test. Safe to say I was freaking out and in pain, without a regular dentist to call. A friend referred me to Dr. Santos, and from my first contact with his staff I knew I had found my new dentist. His staff put me at ease and fit me in immediately. Dr. Santos was able to repair the filling right away and get me back to studying! I've been going to Dr. Santos ever since, and I'd highly recommend him to anyone in the bay area. He is extremely professional and skilled, but I also like that he is young, energetic, and likes to talk local sports. He developed a long term plan for my dental health, and checks in with me after any procedures. Most importantly, I trust his judgment. You should also know his office is state of the art - with TVs and all these cool features. His staff does an amazing job as well. I have had to reschedule a few appointments, and Cherri is always extremely professional, and great with reminders about appointments. I also want to thank his hygienist who is always so pleasant, and very gentle! A huge thanks to everyone at Dr. Santos' office! read more

My girlfriend has been going to Dr. Santos for about a year and she says "He's the best dentist in the world!" Dr. Santos' office is clean and very updated. The staff always makes us feel comfortable. Dr. Santos always explains exactly what he is doing and neither have ever felt discomfort with any procedure. If you need a family dentist, check out Dr. Santos! You will be happy you did. read more
