Linda M.

Our whole family has gone to Dr. Fallah numerous times. He is the best Dentist we have ever gone too. We have fillings from years ago that are still in great shape. My Dad in his 90's still brags about Dr. Fallah to this day. He is very gentle, smart and such a nice man. I would definitely without a doubt recommend him.

I'm so thrilled to have found Proper 32! From the moment I walked in, everyone has been incredibly…read morekind, welcoming, and helpful. The entire team makes you feel comfortable and genuinely cared for. Dr. Matt McDonald is excellent at what he does. He is knowledgeable, professional, attentive, and takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable and understand everything along the way. It's clear that he truly cares about his patients and takes pride in providing great care. The office itself is also such a standout. The vibe is amazing--warm, modern, relaxed, and incredibly unique. It feels perfectly suited to our coastal town and has so much more personality than a typical dental office. You can tell a lot of thought went into creating a space that feels welcoming and comfortable from the moment you walk in. I've had such a positive experience with everyone at Proper 32 and feel very confident that I'm in good hands. I would highly recommend Dr. Matt McDonald and the entire Proper 32 team!

They even had kombucha and beer available while you wait, which was such an unexpected touch. Definitely not your typical dentist visit in the best way! They even had a gift for signing up for their membership which was well priced.

Overall, I really like this clinic. I am surprised that others are having bad experiences. My…read moredentist is Dominique Winfield, DDS. She is sweet, kind, gentle, and listens. The hygienist, Kat, is fantastic! The best I've ever encountered, and I'm in my 60s. Prior to using this clinic and due to my own neglect, I had gum disease with pockets in the 4, 5, and 6 numbers. This required a deep gum cleaning every 3 months and brushing after every meal and using a WaterPik and professional dental pick. A WaterPik is much more effective than floss; I don't even floss anymore. I've been able to move my cleanings to every 6 months. Kat has done the deep cleaning 4 or 5 times. She is very careful, steady-handed, and gentle. I use a dental savings plan, Principal Dental Access Plan (formerly New Dental Choice), not insurance. In my experience and opinion, it's much better, less hassle for the patient and the clinic, and less costly than an insurance plan. At my first visit in 2023, I was treated by Dr. Kringel. He was great, but has moved out of state. My previous dentist in another clinic had warned that a 2-year-old Cerec crown had a lip/edge bad margin and needed to be replaced. She had also said there was a cavity in another tooth. I adored and trusted her, but it was too expensive and they didn't accept the dental savings plan, only PPO. After the very costly out of pocket initial deep gum cleanings and a filling on another tooth, I changed offices to this one. Dr. Kringel said there was no cavity and the crown was good, no need to replace. That built 100% trust, because I told them what the other dentist said, and they could have gone along with the other dentist's findings and done unneeded work. Some visits, I'm seen right away. Some, it's about a 15-min wait. At my first visit with Dr. Kringel, it was about an hour. I asked about it, and he explained they didn't have a hygienist at the time, and he was doing the cleanings too. Office staff should have relayed that to me while I was sitting in the tx room waiting and waiting. I know clinics also have emergencies that aren't on the schedule, or patients show up late and make everyone run late. In 2024, the Cerec crown with the bad margin (done in 2021 in Mexico) cracked in half. Dr. Winfield showed me how thin the crown was to begin with and due to my occasional jaw clenching when stressed, Cerec crowns were not a good choice for me. She replaced it with zirconium. Four months after, there was intermittent pain with chewing in that tooth with the new crown. I went in for my gum cleaning. She looked at the x-ray and found tooth resorption. Dr. Davis gave a second opinion, and we all discussed a plan. Wait to see if it worsens and pull the tooth at a discount if done within a year of the new crown, or see if it doesn't worsen over time and leave it alone. At other appts, I had seen Dr. Davis talking with patients in the waiting room, and he always seemed so nice, very soft-spoken and gentle. This was my first interaction with him. I thought he was great, so again I'm surprised by the experiences some are having. I am taking off one star for three reasons. (1) This coincides with other reviews. At my first visit after x-rays and seeing Dr. Kringel, the office manager at the time (Jennifer) came in and gave me a major pushy sales pitch. It really turned me off. I declined some things and Dr. Kringel came back in to do what I approved of - disinfectant flush and laser to help the gums heal faster. I wanted the laser with the former dentist clinic, but she didn't offer it. (2) In 9/2024, I had a temporary crown done by the dental assistant to replace the cracked Cerec crown (never had one by a DA before, it was a surprise that they can do them). The gum tissue swelled up and got red, with slight pain. I dug out a bunch of food, as the space between the temp crown and other molar was so big. The swelling went all the way down. At my perm crown appt, a different DA removed the temp crown and a tiny bit of food that was under the temp crown. She left the room. I smelled a bad odor like old food. She returned and looked and found two more globs of food that had been stuck under the temp crown. This should not have happened, it was a poorly fitted temp crown. I reported this to the office manager and provided a photo of the food on the dental tray. Dr. Winfield made absolute certain there was no food left before cementing the perm crown. (3) The receptionists do not smile or act friendly when I approach the counter. I'm sure they are often overwhelmed with phone calls like all clinics get. I am an office coordinator/receptionist with a heavy workload, yet always smile and am friendly to coworkers who approach me needing assistance. Good customer service means hiding from customers/patients that you're frustrated or overwhelmed.

I took my son in for his 6 month appointment today. Now, every single time we have been here we…read morehave had to wait a LONG time after our scheduled appointment time to be seen. The dentist and hygienist today were both very pleasant but the front office staff checking out was TERRIBLE. Extremely rude and condescending. She explained the same response to my question several times as if I didn't understand what she was saying when in reality she either wasn't listening or didn't understand the question I was asking. Nonetheless, she was explaining it to me as if I was a child and she was incredibly annoyed I didn't just say "ok" to her telling me there will now be a change and cost impact to what the dentist and I discussed. I will not be returning here even though my son has been a patient for close to two years now. Too bad you can't give less than 1 star.

"I HATE MY DENTIST!..." is what I used to say! NOT ANYMORE!!! This dental office is very different…read morebecause all of the staff there are such professionals who truly care about the success of your dental needs and goals! They demonstrate such rare and amazing excellence in their interactions with all their patients yet are balanced with cutting edge, technological expertise one hopes the dental team possesses! I must say, they have made my drive from Yorba Linda all the way to Carlsbad ALL so worth it! The work I've had done so far has not gone unnoticed in a very positive way! 3 of my friends plan to take the drive as well and discover the same quality dental care I have! The lead by example style by the very talented and knowledgeable Dr Ilien says it all! Ilien, to your obvious credit, You've built a warm, loving and kind hearted team who makes the patient's satisfaction your central theme, and for that, I say, Thank you all!!! If you're looking for a great dental experience, come here! They never disappoint!

My last dentist was wonderful, but stopped taking my insurance, so I switched to Carlsbad Smile…read moreStudio. What a blessing!. Not only did I get a phenomenal cleaning from Paige, but the doctor and Paige worked together to make sure my teeth are well cared for long term. I also love the natural products they use and the training they gave me on how to holistically take better care of my teeth. The spirit of excellence, joy, and gratitude shines at this dental office in everyone, from the front office staff to my hygienist to the dentist. Hallelujah! I found an even better way to care for my teeth, and they even take my insurance! I'm so thankful! Now that I have had two crowns I want to continue to sing the praises of my new dentist, Dr. Minter and her assistant, Jenna. In the last six months, I have had to have two crowns. One was on a bottom tooth where the former crown had to be removed, and the other was a top tooth where a crown had to be placed. I have never felt so cared for by a dentist. Jenna continually put Vitamin E oil on my lips, especially on the corners because they have cracked and bled from past dental work. Not only that, Jenna met me with a hot neck wrap that instantly put me at ease and relaxed my body. Of course, the proof of a phenomenal dentist is her skill level and my pain level. Dr. Minter exceeded all my expectations in every way. At the end of both treatments, I did not feel fatigued or weary from the process, and my two new crowns are flawless in every way. Surprisingly, my pain level was almost. nonexistent for dental work. There is a spirit of excellence, benevolence, and compassion in Dr. Minter's office. I felt it from the moment I ambled in from the smiling and helpful front counter workers, to Jenna who met all my needs. Finally, Dr. Minter, with her cheerful countenance and dental savvy, makes the office the only place to get your dental needs met. What a gift they are to their patients and the public! Hallelujah!
