I waited four months because I am lazy and I couldn't use my mouth properly. I attribute this to muscle memory. My new teeth seemed clunky and misaligned. All of those uncertainties have been completely resolved and I'm exceedingly satisfied and grateful for my full mouth restoration. My old dental situation was deplorable, and I lived in fear and shame of the shape that my teeth were in . Everything started to change with a simple evaluation by Dr. Allred. That day fear in shame were replaced with hope and excitement. Once the decision was made to move forward, the procedure moved fast! The first day was the longest 4 to 5 hours and I had 14 temporary crowns and four post for implants installed. All of this was painless as I was put under anesthesia!. I returned four weeks later for about two hours and had all permanent crowns and implants installed. ( Dr. Allred has his own CNC machine on site so all crowns and implants can be made as needed. No waiting for an outside company to get the teeth manufactured!) I can't close without mentioning how well the Office ran from reception and organization to the dental technicians. Thank you, Dr. Allred. Ps... I will admit, I shed a few tears out of gratitude!

I first met Dr. Allred when he was consulting at a different dentist office. I found him very knowledgeable and willing to explain everything to you. When he left that dentist office and they had a different dentist consult with me, the difference was remarkable. The second dentist just didn't seem experienced and was a little eager to jump into recommending the expensive procedure. When I learned Dr. Allred had his own practice, I was willing to make the drive all the way to San Marcos to find him. The office is modern, very clean, and the chairs are actually pretty comfortable, both in the waiting room and in the procedure rooms. All the staff members were not just courteous, but very friendly as well. All smiles for you and willing to laugh. Apparently my nighttime teeth grinding was worse than I thought, because I ground through the enamel of my back molars and they needed repair. The other dentist immediately recommended two crowns, which would have amounted to around $3000 before insurance. That seemed a little extreme to me, so I got a second opinion from Dr. Allred. He thought crowns were a little "aggressive" for the amount of damage being repaired, and instead recommended onlays. That was the moment I decided the extra 20-minute drive was worth the trouble. (My previous dental office was right next door to where I work.) So I made an appointment to have him fix my ground-up teeth. The day of the procedure, he said one tooth was not as bad as the other, and that a filling would fix it just fine. This made my visit even cheaper! The total would come to just over $600 before insurance. I was amazed. This dentist is not the kind eager to recommend expensive procedures to you, even though he is perfectly capable of them. He is there to help you within your budget. He also knows his stuff. He offered explanations for my nightly grinding that no other dentist or even the internet ever offered (occlusal disease - where your bite is off and your jaw muscles unconsciously try to correct it). It's hard to find doctors and dentists who like to get to the source of the problems rather than simply treating your symptoms. I highly recommend Dr. Allred. Your teeth are very important to your happiness and well being, so he is worth the trip! His office is called Allred Dental and it's near Fry's Electronics in San Marcos.

My smile is so pretty and I feel more comfortable and happy. Thanks Dr. Allred!

I've been going to San Marcos Family Dental for about 8 years for regular cleanings, checkups, and…read morethe occasional cavity. Everyone is friendly, the office is comfortable, and Miguel is a great hygienist. Both dentists are always happy to explain what's going on and answer questions. The reason I'm finally writing a review is because of a recent emergency. After a fall, I broke both of my top front teeth and called the office right away. They were able to get me in the same day, cleaned everything up, and placed a temporary crown. I later went back for my permanent crowns and follow-up visits to make sure everything was healing well. Dr. Reppas and Sophia were amazing throughout the entire process. They were calm, kind, and took the time to answer all of my questions, which made a stressful situation much easier. One thing that really stood out to me was how well they worked together. It was clear they have a lot of respect for each other and function as a true team, and that gave me a lot of confidence that I was in good hands. I hope I never need that kind of dental work again, but it's reassuring to know I have such a great team if I ever do. I highly recommend San Marcos Family Dental!

Insanely predatory practice. Will quote you pricing before the appointment and then when you're in…read morethe chair suddenly everything changes. Save your money and sanity and don't do business with these people. They even called me after I left before they even looked at my teeth to belittle me and make me feel bad for "agreeing" to a price beforehand and being sketched out when it changed. They had told me the set price would cover everything as far as x-rays and the exam and when I was asking about specifics once in the chair they didn't even know how much it would be and kept having to leave to ask their supervisor. The assistant was very sweet, but there seemed to be a very vague and confusing lack of communication between everyone. I wouldn't recommend this place.

I recently scheduled another appointment to be seen specifically by her. When I arrive the woman at the front desk says "we've been trying to get ahold of you. The dentist wont be in until 10 AM" My appointment was at 830 AM. What? The front desk women says "Didn't you get my message?" The only correspondence I have is one voicemail. I present it to her and it's for insurance verification regarding payment and nothing more. I asked why didn't they cancel my appointment. "Oh we can't do that" They knew they couldn't fulfill my appointment and allowed me come in knowing the dentist wouldn't be in. No emails, no messages in the patient portal. Only a voicemail that was allegedly left that I don't have. She then runs in the back to see if someone else can take care of me. She returns saying another dentist I've never met with who's new to the office will take my appointment. No, thanks. I specifically scheduled and requested Yaseri. She's not here so I'm outta here. They managed to waste my morning and my travel time both getting there and now on the return home. I guess Yaseri could care less on top of all this. I sent a message directly to her and absolutely no response after five days. Time to locate a new dentist.

They said they cared about my overall health and needed to take it because it was their policy to protect their doctors and care for me. I don't need them to care for my blood pressure-my primary care doctor already does that. I need them to clean my teeth. Now, I won't be having my teeth cleaned for a year - until I can switch to different insurance and find a dentist who actually treats me with respect and dignity due to any human. I left the office crying - feeling uncared for, discarded, broken and less than.

I ended up speaking with the Dr about what additional work needed to be done. He was extremely polite and helpful when explaining the consequences of putting off the work.

If you are putting off going to the dentist, don't! Go see the friendly team over at Family Dental and they will take care of you. Thanks - Desiree, Jasmine, and Dr. Nguyen....

To my pure delight, I didn't need a crown, he said "we can fix this with a filling, no crown needed" LIKE WHAT??!!! Not only was he kind & patient BUT he wasn't out to get money from me. He was honest and did only what was necessary. THIS is a RARE quality these days. I hope he is my dentist as long as I have teeth :) I'll be going back with pure confidence and no fear!!
