I had my consultation and was able to begin treatment immediately. My treatment plan was followed exactly, and today, I just completed my treatment. I am so pleased with my results and the entire experience! All of the staff are so friendly, welcoming, and professional. I absolutely love Renee, Nina, and, of course, Dr. Nassiri! They made the entire process comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend Solan Smile Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry to anyone looking for excellent orthodontic care!

I can't say enough good things about Solano Smile. My son just finished his orthodontic treatment…read moreand had his braces removed today--and to my surprise, I felt genuinely sad (!) that we won't be coming in as often to see the team. That says everything about our experienc From start to finish, it was seamless. Everything went exactly as planned--no unexpected delays, no surprise costs--just thoughtful, high-quality care delivered by a team that clearly knows what they're doing and genuinely enjoys doing it. Dr. Ramtin Nassiri is exactly the kind of provider you hope to find when trusting someone with your child's care: deeply knowledgeable, meticulous, funny, and incredibly kind. You can feel how much he cares about his patients and how invested he is in their progress. He has a rare ability to connect equally well with kids and adults--warm, personable, and thorough without ever feeling rushed. A special shoutout to Renee, the patient coordinator, who went far beyond what anyone would reasonably expect. Navigating a kid's care with two co-parents in the mix can be a tricky proposition, and she nailed it. Renee brought so much empathy, clarity, and grace; at times it felt like she was part patient coordinator, part family therapist. Truly special lady :) Finally, the space itself deserves mention: a beautiful setting in a vintage Spanish architectural home. Original fireplaces, exposed beams, and tile...it somehow makes going to the dentist feel...cozy? Thank you, Solano Smile, for not just delivering outstanding results--but for making the entire experience something we'll actually miss and look back on fondly.

They always make the kids feel comfortable and even excited to go back and get toy surprises. The office is clean and totally geared toward kids, with toys in the lobby and even a horse saddle for the x-ray chair! There's lots of colorful fun artwork on the walls, TVs on the ceiling make our kids smile! while getting their teeth cleaned!! They also have fun contests a few times each year, like send in a postcard with prizes for nearest, furthest, most colorful, etc. They don't take accept insurance, but we keep going even though they're out off network for us. Plenty of off-street parking in a small free parking lot. I would usually like to add lots of photos with my review. Sorry, I got photos only of my kids getting their teeth cleaned.

The clinic itself is setup very well with several entertaining play areas , retro arcade games and definitely puts the kids to ease.

This is a profit maximizing practice if there ever was one. We feel (and a second opinion…read moreessentially confirmed) that they attempted to over-treat our son to maximize their revenue. When I asked them questions about the extent of treatment recommended, I got filibuster responses that were anything but reassuring. Visiting a different dentist generated a treatment plan that was ~50% of what Primary Teeth was trying to get away with. The treatment you receive and bedside manner here may be quality, but who wants to work with someone who will look you in the eye and say your child needs expensive invasive treatment that they actually don't?

They took care of me quickly and I have been a loyal patient ever since. We book our appointments well in advance but the front staff is always helpful if we need to make changes as the appointment gets closer. My 2 year old is also a patient and has had two visits so far. Everyone here has been very patient and kind to her as well. She loves choosing a prize after her visit is complete. Street parking is plentiful and this office is located in a lovely area - you can take a stroll on Solano Ave or grab a coffee or bite to eat before or after. It is hard to find a good dentist; I sure am glad I found Berkley Hills Dentistry.

I switched away from Crown Dental Care in recent years due to a change in employer, which resulted…read morein Crown Dental being out of network and no longer having great coverage for services provided. But during my time here, I always found everyone here friendly and attentive. Run by a husband-and-wife team, Dr. Farahmand does the dental exams while his wife serves as the dental hygienist. Equipment here is very new, and they even have personal tv monitors directly in front of you to watch shows on during your appointment. Only small gripe I had initially was after my first appointment when they got my address mixed up in their system and put in my former dentist's address in as my own. Imagine my surprised when I received a confused call one day from my former dentist informing me that Crown Dental sent them my dental bill.

My experience was that Crown runs like a sales office where unneeded dental procedures are continually recommended to you. I regret having chosen this office for my dental care last year and trusted the advice given too many times. It is terrible to feel exploited by those entrusted to caring for something as fundamental as your dental well being.

It's hard to find a good dentist. Dr. Lopez is an excellent one. We are very lucky we found Dr…read more Lopez 10 years ago, when our child was a toddler. I am a physician, have seen many dentists myself, and learned the hard way to be picky. Dr. Lopez has all the qualities I look for: she connects with us and communicates well, knows the current science, is highly skilled and experienced, takes the time to get to know us and make personalized treatment plans, is transparent and includes us in decision-making, and prioritizes prevention over procedures. Her office staff are also friendly, easy to reach and responsive. We trust her so much that we have chosen to pay out of pocket to see her when our dental insurance changed and no longer included her practice. Dr. Lopez clearly values the quality of her work and patient relationships, a rarity in this modern era of high-volume practices, and we are so fortunate to have been part of it. Dr. Lopez is a gem in our community and has our highest recommendation!

A dear longtime friend recommended Louie Mendoza's location and because of trust we decided to give Mendoza's office a shot. Overall we are happy we did. Really the only issue I personally have is out of my control - it's a bit of a drive to get there. But easily accepted for quality care. And that is what we've gotten so far with Louie Mendoza and the staff. The office is very bright, airy and clean. The staff are very kind and welcoming. And we've been treated almost like we are long term family when really we are new patients. I am quite curious how they handle pain management for more troublesome processes, of which I have at least one pending.
