I had my first visit at Brea Dentists today and it was a breeze! The receptionists were very friendly and welcoming the minute I walked through the door. I did the pre-paperwork online about medical history and was seen right on time. The x-rays were digitally done and they did a full jaw one that I did have done at my previous dentists. It was cool to see the full view and it come up immediately. Dr. Vidovich was awesome. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed the whole time. It was a pain free and easy experience! After the exam he educated me on my teeth and ways to help take better care of them. The pricing was great and I will definitely call this my new permanent dentist office. Highly recommended! read more

The best treatment I have ever received!! The Team was amazing , Friendly and very professional. Extremely clean office . Thank for taking great care of me. read more

Worst experience for the whole family! Incompetent dentists and, although nice, totally incompetent office staff as well. Daughter was told several years ago that front tooth needed to be extracted. Since it was a permanent tooth, we went to get a second opinion. We paid out of pocket, and, with a not even major procedure, saved the tooth - which, years later, is still in perfect condition. After that experience, we decided that from then on, we will only have cleanings and X-rays done at this place - as the location is convenient. They always push for extra services - I assume simple cleaning paid by insurance is not profitable enough. However, seems like even the extra services are not done correctly. Last time I went there, I was told that deep cleaning was necessary - which I agreed to. Deep cleaning was done in 19 minutes! We had appointment scheduling issues as well: 2 family members were made cleaning / exam appointment when there were no appointments (or just one of the scheduled 2) available; or only exam (full mouth dental exam was done by Dr. Gaffino in 3 minutes!) available. Do not go to this office if you want to keep your teeth and have quality work done. Nice office staff doesn't make up for incompetent!! read more

Very good dentists, very reasonable prices. Always available for an appointment, great dental work, good location, very professional and a supernatural ability to not only remember all my dental details from six months ago, but to remember _the details of my insurance plan_! read more

I love my new dentist!!! How many people can say they have a pleasant experience at a dentist? I can!!! I was in fear and was so untrusting, but then I walked into Brea Dentists.. And I felt at peace with knowing I was in good hands. They are so kind and are very thorough. I feel at home and have no fear, no discomfort, no worries... Thank you Brea Dentists :) Words can not express how grateful I am to have found them... The staff are like friends now, kind professional and they really care. Im in good hands and feel like I can open wide and not worry about a thing.. Thank you SOOOO much Brea Dentist read more

I went to Brea Dentists today, and saw Dr Gaffino. I am typically terrified of the dentist, so I was really hoping for a good experience. What I got was a great one! She is SOO nice - and very caring, understanding, and willing to explain everything. I am actually pregnant so she is fixing my issues conservatively until after baby is born, which I appreciate. I also really appreciated her bedside manner. She was friendly, somewhat young but not too young that you think she may not know what she is doing! The office staff were also super friendly, and very nice. They were all congratulating me on baby, and just treated me so well. When it came time to figure out the financial aspect of what I need doing, they sat down with me, explained it all, and made it easy to understand. Also, I called for an appointment and got in the very next day because I was in pain. The root canal I now need, I only have to wait a week for when the specialist comes to their office, so I don't have to go back to a different place. Also - when I was setting up the appointment on the phone and going over insurance info etc, whoever I spoke to was so pleasant, nice, and friendly. You know how sometimes when you need to go over that stuff with office staff they are impatient and just in a rush to get you off the phone? She was not like that at all. Bonus - having a Will Smith movie playing on the screen while I was being examined! Distracts you! read more

Barbara and Sergio did an amazing job on my cleaning. I have always disliked going to the dentist but this was a pleasant, even enjoyable visit. Sergio was super friendly and made me comfortable talking about basketball. Dr Barbara was nice and made me comfortable when she started my cleaning. I also got a free teeth cleaning kit. I thought it would be a cheap kit but they took my impressions and left me surprised. I have always hated the dentist and if my dentist as a kid were Dr Barbara and Sergio, I would have a different opinion for sure. Thank you guys for the cleaning read more

Hands down the most amazing experience I have ever had in a dental office. The staff was beyond helpful, going out of their way at every opportunity. Their office is beautiful, the technology is up-to-date, and all the procedures were quick, easy, and painless. They even have a Keurig in the waiting area with different flavors of coffee for the guests! Absolutely unbeatable service, kindness, and comfort. Plus, the staff is very knowledgable, and doesn't make you feel worried, like they must have printed fake degrees to open a practice (I've been to places like that, just saying). Coming from a small town, I expected this place (like so many others) to be cold and all about making a quick dime, but I really felt welcomed and cared about here. That's something you can't find just anywhere. I definitely look forward to going back every six months for my check-ups! Thanks guys! :) - Steven read more

Best dentist office in town, I have been to a few dentists offices but this is the best, don't hesitate to see for yourself.

Great experience, knowledge Dr. Gentle and expedient care. Honest and comprehensive. Friendly staff. They worked with my schedule and accommodated my need for immediate care due to insurance lapsing. Loved it! read more

On Aug. 8/11/2020 I went to this office for check up. They suggested three procedure. Which was three crown each $478.00. luckily I had my insurance price list. It should been only $350.00 each. On 8/11/2020 I did go there office and she modified the quotation. But I did not trust them any more. read more

This is the most well kept and professional dental office I've been in. From The smiling faces in the front of Kristina the office manager and Alyssa at the front office to the dentist that we saw Dr Nguyen also the dental assistants May and Sal. they have the most up-to-date dental equipment as well as a super nice well-kept office and the most professional staff we are definitely making this our family dentist. read more

So.... I read ALL of the reviews and of course some good and some bad. So I decided to try them knowing that they will up sale me. I do call my insurance regardless before I agree to anything, because that is something that EVERYONE should do! With that said....my son had quite a few cavities which I already knew. So they wanted to charge me $30.00 for each composite (which was correct) plus $95.00 for a Desensitizer per composite. (So that's $125.00 per cavity) Hmm interesting right? Well I called my insurance since this is the 1st I have ever heard of this separate charge. They told me there was no code for this. I checked the ADACDT Dental Coding Manual for 2013 and it states that this should be included with every composite. I called 2 other dentists and they said they do not charge for this and is included with every composite they do. Also, they said my son needed an Onlay which was $805.00 or a crown which was $780.00. So my insurance says that the inlays are not covered but the crown should be $180.00 and if they use a certain brand that is more expensive, then they have to give me another alternative which cannot be more than $180.00. So I spoke to the office manager who handles these fees and she said that it is $780.00 because there are lab fees that are extra and the post is also an extra charge which makes up the difference of $600.00. Really? I don't think so! The Office Manager kept giving me stupid excuses as to why they had to charge me that amount. So I have filed a complaint against them and will never go back. Oh and they will try to charge you $40.00 for a Fluoride varnish which really isn't necessary. I will say that the Dr was very nice and the facility was clean but that's it. Please read all reviews! I hope this helps and if you see any of these charges please call your insurance and do not agree to anything. I will be going back to my dentist whom only takes PPO and will go as a cash patient which will be cheaper than this place with my insurance. Oh well I tried! Good Luck! read more

I was absolutely impressed when I walked into Dr. Gaffino's gorgeous, high-tech office. Not only was the environment welcoming and friendly, but it lacked that dreaded "dental" smell. The staff was kind and asked if I was too cold. I was seen within a couple minutes of arriving early and the appointment began very smoothly. I warned the hygienist that I have had some dental trauma in the past, as well as an insanely high gag reflex during procedures. She made sure to work quickly during x-rays and did not force them down my throat as some hygienists do. For the first time in years, I didn't gag during x-rays. So why the one star you might be asking? As soon as Dr. Gaffino walked in, the bad news started to drown me. Being a person with great oral care and someone who visits the dentist every single 6 months, I was shocked when she told me I needed an $800 "onlay"- something I had never heard of. I started to become concerned when Dr. Gaffino started using fear tactics to make me want to get only the porcelain $800 procedure as opposed to the $50 metal option. (Which I found out later is because of an expensive Cerac machine that dentists have to pay off- hence the scamming...) anyway she could see I didn't have the budget to pay for this $800 cutting away of MOST of my healthy tooth, so she "kindly" offered to give me a $200 student discount. I felt pressured, uncomfortable, and fearful even though she masked the experience in gentleness and kindness. Needless to say, I got my butt outta there, requested my x-rays, and got not one but two second opinions from skilled dentists who both told me the same thing: Dr. Gaffino runs a business and she's trying to make a profit off her expensive $150,000 Cerac machine. Shameful. Not only was my tooth not in need of a ceramic onlay, but the bad "decay" that Dr. Gaffino "saw" was in fact just staining. My $800 quote was truly a $0 problem. For these reasons, I would not return to Brea Dentist nor would I recommend it to anyone close to me. Dr. Gaffino, though a nice woman, is running her business and running it well- she's convincing probably tons of people to get work they don't need. Disappointing experience to say the least. I HIGHLY recommend, however, seeing Dr. Winston at Whittier Square Dentistry for an honest, gentle experience without the fear tactics and the guilt tripping. He turned my Brea Dentists nightmare into a lovely worry-free experience. read more

I can't stand Amy (i think) at the front desk's attitude. After talking to her this week ill find a new dentist.

As a frequent Yelp user there are very few establishments with all 5-star ratings. Especially when there are more than 10 reviews. My first thought when i came across Brea Dentist on Yelp was these reviews must have come from the employees or friends...right? Either way, as a terrified and total spaz of a patient, I chose Brea Dentist to have a root canal gone bad retreated (like having another freakin root canal) and my husband went with me (he had broken a back tooth a few days before). Well, I don't care where those other reviews came from, although I'm now convinced they came from real patients, this is the best dental office I've ever been to. Cost are not much cheaper than other places but they do take most insurances and have alternative payment plans. Here are a few other details I appreciated about our visit: 1) SUPER friendly. 2) Every detail of the work that needed to be done was clearly spelled out. I had asked for nitrous but seeing the fee and confirming my insurance would not cover the cost they quickly got me a prescription for killer Valium to calm my lame nerves. 3) Unlike most other offices, this facility has specialists on site so, in my husband's case, they were able to treat his tooth (root canal) and get a crown on the same day. Tell me that isn't better than driving back and forth over multiple days/weeks from dentist to Endodontist back to dentist like most other cases. 4) The facility looks brand new. Everything is clean and high tech. All of the patient rooms have flat screen TVs playing movies to help distract us :) 5) Dr. Gaffino is experienced yet young enough that I trust she's not "old school". She has great bedside manners and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Not that I will ever be "excited" to walk in their doors again I certainly would not go anywhere else. read more

I really liked this office and had an overall good experience with the dentist but the lady at the front desk is clearly not happy with her job! She wasn't helpful with information not friendly and seemed annoyed with my questions! There was another lady there who had to chime in cause it was so obvious that she was not helpful read more

I read the reviews prior to my first visit with this dentist and was impressed by all of the positive ones, although took note of the negative ones. Unfortunately,the more negative reviews are far more appropriate than the glowing ones. (By the way, they have a sign at checkout encouraging patients to give them a positive review.) I walked out of my first visit without having my teeth cleaned because the doctor insisted I needed a deep-cleaning. Scare tactics were used generously and lots of pressure to allow them to do the procedure that same day--all for over $2,000! I called my former dentist in another state and he looked at my xrays and indicated that I do not have periodontal disease and do not need the deep cleaning they were so insistant on. He indicated that this high sales pressure and insistance on deep cleaning seems to be pretty rampant in California. So, do not go to this dentist! read more

This is the best dentist office around. The staff are so friendly, and kind and I find that rare these days. Brand new office, everything was clean and very welcoming. I dread going to the dentist, and I feel like I cant wait to go back. Please check this place out, you will be amazed!!! read more

Very nice dental office, I usually hate going to the dentist and its been years since i last been to one. But I'm glad I came to this place after all the reviews I read. This place looks very nice and the feeling you walk in it doesn't feel like the dentist. It was a very peaceful place.All the staffs are super friendly and Dr.Gaffino knew I was scared so she was very gentle and careful with me. She was very informative and helpful. Michelle that took my xray was very nice and she was calming me down the whole time. Lily at the front desk was very helpful and found a great plan for me to get my wisdom tooth remove. Coming back here on the 21st to get wisdom tooth taken out, not looking forward to the idea of that, but I'm sure Dr.Gaffino and her staff would take good care of me. Definitely gonna be my dentist that I would go for all my fillings and everything :) Super recommended for people that hates the dentists like me! read more

Wonderful group of professionals who really care about you! No high pressure fear tactics, just kind and concerned real people trying their best to help you in everyway possible to make going to the Dentist a pleasant and affordable experience. I was shocked. I thought the days of medical professionals who really cared about their clients was over and like everyone else just wanted to make a fast buck. From the excellent main Doctor, to the dental expert who did 3 root canals in the time it normally has taken me to get one. Sweet dental assistants and the awesome woman who helped me figure out the best way for me to pay, I was blown away! I can not say enough about it. I get very leery when I see all "the fancy high tech equipment and think, great how much am I paying for all this?" But they used everything to my best advantage making my appointment quick and easy, and pain free! So if you are like me and worried you are in good hands here. Thank you Brea Dentists! God Bless! Mike Murphy read more

Came in to this office a few days ago and couldn't believe how great my experience was. Everybody was extremely professional and nice. I left my last dentist for charging me more than what my insurance said I should pay. My last dentist told me I need so many different procedures when in reality I did not. Dr. Gaffino was very thorough with what I needed which was just a cleaning and a filling. Don't listen to the bad reviews posted on here. A friend of mine comes here as well and is more than satisfied with this place! The Dr. is very honest and genuine. read more

What an amazing dental office! Just wandered in last week after lunch at Thai Specialiaty next door and wanted to take a quick look see, saw their amazing special and booked an appointment on the spot. Brand spanking new office with all the latest in high end technology equipment and highly experienced, kind beyond words dentist and staff. Awesome dentist who is friendly, gentle and thorough. Amazing also comes to mind when thinking of this staff, Lily (front desk) and Sergio who did my digital XRays and cleaning. No fear from me, one who is "phobic" in this type of environment! Such kindness and patience from all, feeling very blessed. Fantastic opening special too, $39 includes digital xrays, cleaning and trays/teeth whitening! Just came to check it out for me and the rest of my family and I am so sold on this practice for the 5 in my family! Sorry old dentist of ours... I have found a new home for my family to "Open Up" to! I can only suggest everyone do the same! Really! It's a 10+!! read more

I love Dr. Gaffino!!! She and her team are a wonderful group of professionals. They have such excellent bedside care. She and her team are also extremely inclusive of the patients as part of the entire dental planning process. The team's work ethic and the quality of their work is remarkable! There is absolutely no way you can go wrong with this dental office. The team works collaboratively and in unison. This denal office is truly OUTSTANDING! read more

I had been going to Dr. G. for years in RSM so when I heard she was moving her practice to Brea I decided to follow her there. When you find a dentist as good as Dr. G. you will follow her anywhere. She is just amazing! She is totally sweet and kind and, of course, a skilled and caring dentist as well. I would recommend her to anyone. I've received nothing but the best of care with the latest technology. Her new office and staff does not disappoint. She even had a neat little camera to show me a close up photo on a monitor of one of my teeth. Amazing! Take care of yourself and go to see Dr. G. at Brea Dentists. read more

I had another wonderful experience at Brea Dentists this morning! I have been going to Dr. Gaffino since Brea Dentists opened a couple of years ago. The staff at the office are great, I always leave with a smile and look forward to getting to go back. Dr. Gaffino definitely instills a strong feeling of trust, I know that any treatment she suggests is needed. She's also the first dentist I've ever had check for any signs of oral cancer, slightly unnerving that no other dentists have done that. I've referred a number of friends to Brea Dentists and they've all been equally satisfied. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone in North OC looking for a dentist! read more

This is a awesome place! Very highly recomended, friendly staff and flexable payment plans-they will work with you!

During the grand opening of Brea Dentists, we were impressed by the state of the art facilities and staff friendliness. I finally had my first appointment and was equally impressed by the efficiency and quality of the service I received. I hate feeling like my time is being wasted which is usually the case at most dentists and doctors... at Brea Dental I was in and out in a timely manner. Overall, highly recommended. read more

Dr. Gaffino is the most compasionate easy to work with Dentist I have ever seen. If you have any issues with dentistry, she will put you at ease. I HIGHLY recommend her. read more

Great dentist! I went there for the first time yesterday and was very impressed! Not only was the office very clean and very nicely decorated in a modern theme, but they have great little touches to make you feel comfortable (good music playing throughout office, nice lotions in bathroom, TVs, coffee in waiting room, etc.). Most importantly though, the people were nice and the appointment was painless and quick! read more

I really enjoyed my experience here. The staff was extremely friendly and professional. I found them through an internet search and because I don't have dental insurance, I was drawn to their $39 promotional deal for a cleaning and exam (including digital x-ray). They're fairly new, opened about a month ago, which you can certainly tell with all the new equipment and nicely decorated office. But in regards to their experience, it's as if they've been in this business for a very long time. I highly, highly recommend this place! From the second I walked in to the moment I walked out, I was treated very nicely. They informed me of a very good dental insurance deal, and I'll be returning to this office from now on! read more

Great experience once again for my 6 month checkup. I walked in and they saw me same day. Best staff, Dr Gaffino was fantastic- my teeth have never been cleaner!! Thanks Brea Dentists! read more

The brea dentists is the best dentist office I have ever been to. They are friendly and help you understand what your long term dental plan is. The team is professional, yet fun, so you can relax. They have great, up-to-date equipment so you know you're getting the best care! Today I was helped by Sergio, and he was wonderful! He did his job very well, and I felt so comfortable during my crown procedure. Dr. Gaffino came in and checked in on my procedure too, ensuring I was doing well! I love her because she doesn't recommend something you don't need, and makes sure you get the right treatment/procedure for you; unlike other offices I have been to. She runs her practice with honesty and integrity. I highly recommend this office, you will love them! read more

Another excellent visit to Brea Dentists! They always seem to go above and beyond at every visit. They have me on a treatment plan that I am actually excited about! Dr. Gaffino makes it worth the drive :) read more

I had my first visit at Brea Dentists and I left with a very positive experience. The office is very modern, very clean and run efficiently. All of the staff members know their role well and I never felt lost or confused during my appointment. I saw Dr. Charshafjian and she was thorough, friendly and informative. She gave me my options and didn't make me feel pressured. The financial lady (I believe her name is Amy) helped me understand how to best use my insurance. I had some fillings done that day and I felt so comfortable. My teeth feel great and I am very happy that I found a new dentist. read more

Just had my biannual checkup and I'm all clear! Dr. Vidovich did a bunch of work on my mouth earlier this year to fix some sloppy work from my previous dentist and in my second trip back all I needed was a cleaning! This has literally never happened to me before so you can understand my excitement! read more

I surprised by how quickly I was serviced upon arrival. I'm used to waiting in the reception area for about 15 minutes, then sitting in a dental chair for up to 1 hour. I highly appreciated their efficient use of time, including the online pre-exam forms, to save me time (which is money). Everyone (Michelle, Debra, and I believe Dr. Charshafjian) was extremely nice, professional and informative on the phone and in-person. read more

Very pleasant first time visit. It's not easy to find a good dental office, but I think this is it. The Dr. Gaffino and her staff are very nice and friendly. This office is very modern and high-tech. They explain everything in detail and no pressure at all to do any procedures. Looking forward to my next visit to do the procedures I need to be done. read more

I just wanted to express my gratitude for the past few years of being one of your customers. Dr. Gaffino and all of the staff there have been amazing. I moved out to Hermosa Beach and decided to seek out a new dentist closer to home. Thanks for everything, you guys have a great practice there and I hope to find something out here that comes close to the level of service you provide! read more
