Very nice staff who perform quality services. Encountered impactful scheduling/insurance entry difficulties but met me halfway as much as possible. read more

I found Brighton Dental when I was really struggling with my health and had no answers through traditional medicine what was "wrong" with me. After 5 months of struggling I found Dr. Woods as a last ditch effort based on intuition that my underlying issue may be due to a root canal I had done the prior year. Every traditional dentist or doctor I met said my symptoms (chronic nausea, unable to eat, chronic fatigue, achy joints to name a few) couldn't possibly be related to my tooth because everything "looked fine". Dr. Woods made me feel seen and validated in a way that no other dentist or medical professional has, she listened, validated my feelings and said "you know your body better than anyone" so let's take a look. Sure enough after completing a Cone Beam CT scan she validated that the root canaled tooth was in fact infected. I had no pain in the actual tooth, but my body had been fighting a "silent infection" for over a year. She got me a few days later to have the tooth extracted (on a Tuesday) and by Friday of that same week I was able to walk my son around the neighborhood for trick or treating on Halloween. My walking heart rate went from over 130, to under 90 that same week, my blood pressure has stabilized, the daily panic and anxiety has gone away, I've gained over 5 pounds back (from losing 20) and I can eat, play with my son and function again. My body and nervous system still have healing to do after being in a state of chronic illness for an extended period of time, but each day I feel stronger. Thank you, Dr. Woods and everyone at your practice for not dismissing my concerns and helping me get my life back. If you have an intuition that your body is speaking through symptoms and it may be related to your oral health, go see Dr. Woods for a Cone Beam CT scan to confirm. You are your biggest advocate, and we need holistic practitioners who believe the mouth has a systemic impact on your entire body. read more

I've been going to Brighton Dental for years. Had to stop after highly skilled hygenist Brittney was replaced by Elizabeth. Liz multitasks; rushes through every cleaning and is always very rough. My teeth became sensitive and my gums always bleed and hurt after her cleanings. She is reckless with the laser and had removed gum tissues while cleaning my teeth. I became anxious of going there which never happened before because Dr. Woods is great and her assistant Sheila is a sweetheart. Recent years, they've started aggressively upselling and repeatedly asking to change the time of the appointments to suit the office's needs. My last straw was the anesthesia shots by Liz, she brutally jabbed my jaw totally traumatizing me both physically and mentally; i couldn't open my mouth for days and it hurt for almost a month. Her sadistic treatments created a dental anxiety that never existed before she worked on me. I will never go back!! read more

Do not go here. My first visit one of the front office staff was arguing with another employee in the lobby. They tried to upsell me on a super expensive treatment that was unnecessary. The day of my second appointment they called three times changing the time of my appointment from 5 to 4 to 3 which I couldn't do so I just had them cancel it. Super unprofessional, I wasn't planning on returning after my second appointment anyways, but this just takes the cake. read more

By far the least painful cleaning I've ever had. Incredibly professional here and every staff member is very personable. Will definitely be recommending them! read more

I've been going here for over 10 years now. Me, my wife and my son all go here. I love the attention to detail, the care and how the dentist remembers us all. They are clean and helpful, easy to work with. I highly recommend this place for any family. read more

I posting my Google review here just in case you are looking for biodenstist. Be aware. It's been several months and I want to share my disappointing experience with Dr. Woods' dental practice to help others make informed decisions. Over the course of 4 months, I was repeatedly ignored by the front desk (Maria), the manager (Natasha), and Dr. Woods regarding my concerns about a nickel allergy. Despite informing them of my allergy, they placed a crown they claimed was '100% gold,' which I later discovered contained nickel and other metals. This is especially troubling because they claim to remove metal fillings regularly, yet they disregarded my health and biological preferences by placing this crown in the first place. After months of persistence, they tell me today they can remove But once again total disregard since there are safety guidelines with proper removal with rubber dam and ventilation. Why even put metal in the first place this goes against biodentristy principles. I feel Dr. Woods' actions reflect misrepresentation and a lack of care for patient well-being. Also, Dr woods states she is a bio dentist but practitioner is not part of the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine, which influenced the outcome. If you are seeking a biologically conscious dental practice or transparency in treatment, I urge you to be cautious with this office. read more

Dr Paige Woods extracted 8 of my teeth that had root-canals to help improve my oral microbiome and holistic health overall. I didn't expect such quick and amazing results. The next morning I got out of bed without the usual inflammation in my back. I went for a walk without feeling a little dizzy, and later I drove to the store without feeling light headed. Thank you Dr Paige. read more

I am not one to post negative reviews, but almost 3 years and THOUSANDS of dollars later, and I'm still dealing with the fallout from using this dentist. Since I haven't been to this office since 2022, i have no idea how or if there's been any change so I'm refraining from posting my experiences while being a patient there. I will say that the flippancy in my care ended up with me losing 2 teeth, having an extremely painful and expensive Oral surgery, a massive infection that had me in antibiotics for almost a year and then another surgery for my sinus. Now, 2 years later the crappy job they did with my expensive bridge has come to a head and several more thousands of dollars is being paid for another new bridge and root canal. Not to mention the lack of professionalism, extremely long (2 hours or more) wait time while listening to them laugh and chat despite telling them I had to get back to work, them scheduling me then when I show up they said "oh oops, I forgot to put it in the computer so you'll have to come another day"...the list goes on into more situations that weren't appropriate at all. One of the biggest mistakes I made was not listening to my gut about this place before it was too late. read more

The staff made me feel right at home here! It was my first time in and I typically DREAD the dentist office! I have cavity prone teeth so I rarely get good news. The staff were all very friendly and reassuring and all of my worries felt addressed! I'm not dreading coming in for my additional treatment as the whole experience has been really positive. Glad to have found a place so close to home that has a great office manager AND dentist! It's rare to find both. read more

Great place review written on 2/5/2025 they are great at holistic approach, they don't only care about fixing your teeth for cavities etc... they consider your over well being for health as all our teeth are connected to something in are body's which is very important this is a great dentist and highly recommend it's not as cheap as a normal dentist where they focus only on oral care they give you option to do payment plans and figure out what's best for each individual "SINCERELY, EDDIE URENDA" read more

I recently started going to Brighton Dental this year after it was recommended by my fiancée. I needed to get updated veneers and they were able to give me the smile I always wanted. I've been told by a number of other dentists that they could not help me or the work that was needed would be too cost prohibitive. Dr. Woods was amazing as well as the rest of her staff. I would highly recommend her office. read more

The office was efficient and smooth sailing from the entrance, to X-rays and photos. My cleaning with Elizabeth was very informative and educational. Elizabeth gave suggestions to help enhance my home routine. I'm not the biggest fan of going to get Dental work but Jasmine, Elizabeth and Dr. Paige were so inviting and lovely. They made me feel right at home. Dr. Paige is warm, loving, brilliant and professional. I have heard great things. I live in Carlsbad and I will travel far to be a patient of Brighton. Alex the office manager is was great! read more

I've been going here all my life and I love this place (: great service and nice dentists

Great dentist, the staff is very helpful. 5/5 I would recommend it to anyone. They make sure they do the best job they can do.

I love Brighton Dental and Dr. Woods! A recent change in my job situation no longer allows me to go to their office, unfortunately. However, I was a patient of theirs for about 6 years, and I have always been happy with their work and with their treatment of patients. Dr. Woods is a skilled dentist, and she is also one of the most friendly and compassionate people I've met. She and her staff are all amazing people, and I am kind of sad to not be able to go there anymore. But if anything changes in my work situation, I would very likely come back! read more

Thank you so much Dr.Paige Woods for taking care of me during my dental emergency. I appreciate your help in such short notice. The staff was very friendly, Maria was very welcoming in the front, office was set up nicely and decorated cute. read more

This is a long-due review. The staff was friendly. The prices are questionable. I was told I needed an additional x-ray that my insurance would not cover. When I inquired about the type of x-ray, I was given a vague answer. It was immediately removed from my bill. As for the estimate I was given, I can only compare their estimate to another estimate I received based on what is exactly on paper. I made a side-by-side comparison. The estimate I received from another dentistry was $1,200.00 less. read more

Once again, Brighton Dental has exceeded all expectations. Even 7 years later and I still receive the best service and they genuinely accommodate my severe anxiety. read more

Brighton Dental is one of my favorite dentists I have been to. The quality of care is amazing and the staff is always very friendly. I've always enjoyed going to the dentist but now I look forward to it. Kaya and Alex are the sweetest and make you feel welcome the second they see you. I am always excited to see and talk to them. They have a really girly vibe inside which I love. It isn't your typical white walls dentist. You can tell time went into how they wanted the place to look like and the feeling you get when you walk in. read more

This place is great! The office is neat and clean and very friendly! I came for either a deep or regular cleaning and the staff is always nice!

Dr wood is a great dr, very knowlagable and quick And knows her work. She is very fast as well. Office is taking all the consideration for Covid 19 prevention. I took one star off because their scheduling and staff sucks. To get Jan appointment you have to call 3,4 times. They are extremely unorganized and when you go to their office they make you wait for hours before seeing the dr If you have 2 extra hours to waste and sit in different rooms in a dr office choose this office! read more
