From the initial consultation to the procedure itself and all the way through the healing process, everything has been smooth and well organized.

Her teeth look great, and she's extremely pleased with the outcome. She highly recommends Dr. Shimane to anyone considering dental implants or looking for excellent dental care.

I called to make an appointment & the office staff were so friendly & accommodating. We went in for the initial consultation & it was fantastic! From the front desk, the nurses, Dr. Ericson.

Prior to surgery, we were contacted & again, all instructions were made clear & we felt reassured that we were prepared. The day of surgery, we arrived & my son was quickly taken in for the procedure & came out in less than an hour. We picked him up at the back of the building, again with instructions & went home.

The office was easy to find, beautifully designed, and had a peaceful, calming atmosphere -- perfect for parents and little ones alike. Our newborn son had a severe lip and tongue tie, and we were nervous. Dr. Yazdi took the time to thoroughly explain the condition, using clear examples so we could truly understand what was going on and what our options were. He never rushed us or tried to push a decision -- instead, he gave us the time and space to decide what felt right for our family. We decided to move forward with the laser procedure, which took less than two minutes. Dr. Yazdi walked us through every step, made sure our son was comfortable, and carefully explained the recovery process. He even called us personally afterward to check in and ensure we had everything we needed to support our son's healing. It's rare to find a doctor who combines such expertise with genuine compassion, but Dr. Yazdi truly does. You can tell he loves what he does and deeply cares for his patients and their families. The entire team are absolute sweethearts and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. We are so thankful for the outstanding care our son received and would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Yazdi and his team to anyone looking for exceptional pediatric dental care!

We went for a tongue tie consultation for our bottle-fed 6-month old who has been "snacking"…read moreinstead of drinking large meals. What we got was a sales pitch for same-day lip tie and tongue tie surgeries. I didn't think that the doctor really listened or cared about the details of our or our child's experience. He took a couple photos and talked a lot. He threw around lots of unfamiliar medical terms and then gave patronizing analogies to explain the conclusion we should be coming to. The facility was clean and the people were friendly, but you should only come here if you've already decided to have the procedure done. It's hard to know who to trust because I've read online that lactation consultants get a kickback for referring patients to get this procedure (I cannot confirm myself). As feedback for the office, I would suggest sending something more professional than the buzzfeed style "55 reasons to get this surgery" blog post ahead of the initial visit; this was a red flag for me. You can also consider a more consultative approach but you might make less money.

Their vigilance, particularly Tiffany's, led to an early diagnosis that made all the difference. If they advise you to get something checked out--please, take them seriously!

From start to finish, everything was smooth, comfortable, and far easier than I ever imagined. I had been putting off treatment for years because of anxiety, but opting for sedation was truly a game-changer. The team explained every step clearly, the entire procedure was quick and completely painless. It felt like I closed my eyes and woke up to a new smile. The implants themselves look and feel incredibly natural--like I have my real teeth back again. I can finally smile with confidence, eat comfortably, and not worry about my dental health holding me back. Healing was straightforward, the aftercare instructions were simple, and the results are nothing short of outstanding. If you're nervous about dental work or have been considering implants but are unsure, don't hesitate. Sedation dentistry made the experience painless and relaxing, and the implants have genuinely improved my quality of life. I wish I had done this sooner! Highly recommend!

I called to reschedule an appointment that the staff had cancelled earlier this month due to staff shortage. Someone named Margarita answered the phone, told me Traci moved, and proceeded to ask me to spell my name five times while trying to find my chart. When I pointed out that we'd been on the phone almost five minutes and all I've done is spell my name and I want just want to get the appointment scheduled and on with my work day, she said, "If you're going to be nasty, call me when you're not nasty," then hung up on me. WOW. I called back three more times asking to speak to Dr. Wong or Estella and she hung up on me THREE MORE times. I demand Margarita be reprimanded for her horrible customer service demeanor and apologize to me. That's just NOT how you EVER treat a customer that's been frequenting your practice for almost two decades with her three kids. IF Margarita is reprimanded and apologizes to me, I will return and edit this review to reflect the terrific service we've received by all on staff... until TODAY. I will not EVER accept being treated the way Margarita thinks it's okay to treat patients on the phone.

They also twist there words a lot especially with a bait and switch where they will tell you one thing on the phone or when you schedule and something else entirely is the case like being told an amount for a cleaning then you get a bulk for a different amount.

When we came the next morning, Shirley was super nice and helpful and got our paperwork all taken care of. Then Dr Lai did a checkup and a round of x-rays. He confirmed it was an abscess tooth and offered to drain it to relieve the pain. Then he gave us an antibiotic prescription to have the infection treated asap and gave a referral to a specialist nearby to do a root canal. He also sent a thorough email diagnosis with the X-rays to my friend's email and a copy to his own dentist. So professional and thorough! And since my friend's insurance wasn't going to cover this and we had to pay ourselves, they gave us a special discount which was very reasonable for all the work Dr Lai did! We loved this whole experience and I'm even switching my dentist to Dr Lai now!
