Definitely one of the most up-to-date dentist I've been to in a while. Amazing staff amazing service highly recommend these guys.

5 stars all around for Dr. Kubina and his staff. Very professional, friendly, and truly go out of their way to make your experience as comfortable as possible. Unlike other dentist, which I feel can be a bit extreme in their solutions, Dr. Kubina is focused on preserving your natural teeth. Therefore, he's approach is very non-agresive, which is very rare these days. He's very detailed in his work and shows a lot of empathy for his patient's concerns. A true professional in his field. I've been looking for a dentist for a couple of years, and have visited several, but something just never felt right. I can't express how happy I am to have found Dr. Kubina and his team. Truly Exceptional! read more

All the staff is very careful and professional. I really appreciate Dr. Kubina's complete honesty with me (l am a complex case). I was lucky to find him and his staff. read more

I love this dentist the whole staff is welcoming and makes you feel at ease. They take time to get to know you and put your fear of dentist out of your mind read more

I had a crown replacement yesterday. I can't say enough about Dr Kubina and his entire staff. I absolutely hate going to the dentist, but Dr Kubina makes it easy. He explains everything he is doing, his equipment is state of the art, and he is so gentle. His new office is gorgeous, with calming colors and beauty everywhere you look. If you are looking for a great dentist, I would recommend Dr Kubina! read more

It might sound silly, but I love going to the dentist at Dr. Kubina's office! The entire staff is delightful and I have been very pleased with every treatment. read more

Dr Kubina has been my dentist for years. I would not go to anyone else. The care my whole family receives from Dr K is first rate, but more importantly, he and his incredible staff truly care about their patients. read more

I have been to a dozen dentists in my life and Dr. Kubina is by far the best. I came to him for a second opinion 15 years ago and he told me I did NOT need all the procedures my previous dentist recommended. He is very concerned about minimizing pain and the quality of his work is unsurpassed. Wendy in his front office is amazing too! read more

A few months ago my husband and I were looking for a new dentist and I asked a group of friends. The referee spoke highly about Dr. C. Kubina and how happy both she and her husband were to have Dr. Kubina as their dentist. So we thought we would try him out and we are glad we did. My husband and I could not be more happy to have such a wonderful and knowledgeable dentist. He is very thorough, professional and has a great personality. The office is very nice and clean. We would proudly recommend him to any of our friends and be sure they would be as pleased as we are . Oh one more thing, all his staff are pleasant and professional too. read more

Dr Kubina and his staff make you feel like family. He explains everything so well and my comfort is his top priority. I highly recommend him! read more

On a scale of 1 to 5 I give Dr. Kubina and his staff a 10 . Dr. Kubina is kind, caring, and takes the stress and anxiety out of dental work. I have referred several people to him and they have all told me how pleased they were with both Dr. Kubina and his staff. read more

Dr. Kubina is a great guy and a very good dentist. He's seriously awesome at giving shots. Not exactly sure what he does, but he makes it really non-eventful. My whole family goes to him, and we all feel the same way. We love how honest he is and does not try to do a bunch of work just for the sake of cashing in. The office is conveniently located just off Fletcher Parkway and has ample parking. Highly recommended. read more

My son tripped and damaged his two from teeth as a baby. After a few horrible experiences with a not-so-Super Dentist chain, I felt hopeless in getting regular check-ups for him. A few days ago I noticed a bump in his gums above one of his damaged teeth. After a quick web search I saw it was likely an abscess and would probably need to be pulled. I was overcome with tears and anxiety--not knowing who I could go to. A friend takes her 3 children to Dr. Kubina and speaks so wonderfully of him, so we decided to turn to him. Though we were new patients with no history, he made a same day appointment with us. After an x-ray, he was able to identify the problem, explained it to me, discussed options and calmed my fears. He spoke to my hesitant and shy son very kindly and was patient with him. I decided that pulling the tooth made the most sense. It did not take long and my son did not shed a single tear. After the appointment, he was happy and excited to have a tooth to put under his pillow. Dr. K's assistant was equally friendly and amazing! I'm confident in knowing that we have a new family dentist! The office is clean, professional, and quiet. The staff is knowledgeable, compassionate, and professional. Thank you!!! read more

Craig Kubina, DDS - My 4 year old son holding his tooth. - General Dentistry Near Me - La Mesa, California

This is a great dental office. Very easy to work with and Dr. Kabina knows what he is talking about. Very through and honest. All of the staff is awesome. read more

I've now been to Dr. Kubina's office for an evaluation, 2 routine cleanings and 1 procedure and really love everything about the office. Dr. Kubina was a recommendation from a friend and he hasn't disappointed. Everyone in the office is very friendly, very helpful, and is genuinely nice. My evaluation and both of my cleanings started exactly on time. The procedure started about 10 minutes late, but in that time 4 members of the staff, including Dr. Kubina, came to the waiting room to apologize for the delay. Everyone seemed to feel very badly about making me wait even though the delay was far less than what seems to be the norm at other doctor's offices. The evaluation was everything that I hoped it would be. Dr. Kubina was friendly, took plenty of time to get to know me and as much time as needed to ensure that all of my questions were answered, and gave his opinions and recommendations when needed while making it clear that they were exactly that and that I was perfectly free to opt not to follow them. I felt no pressure whatsoever and was put very much at ease. Both cleanings were quick, friendly and uneventful, and the procedure went exceptionally well, exceeding even my highest expectations. I'm not easy to please but Dr. Kubina's office has done so and then some. As long as I'm in San Diego and Dr. Kubina is practicing, he'll be my choice for a dentist. read more

Dr. Kubina is a fantastic dentist. I have been to his office about 5 times and he has been awesome every time. I had x-rays, cleanings, and 4 cavities filled. He is ALWAYS on time which is very important to me and his staff is so friendly and efficient. They greet me by name and ask about my new son. I feel very comfortable there and I really appreciate how nice they all are. Having cavities filled is never fun, but Dr. Kubina is fast and gentle. He did a great job numbing me (I felt a small prick but it was not nearly as bad as I've has at other dentists) and he worked quickly. I didn't feel anything while he worked and didn't have any pain or irritations went I went home. He took care to match the color of my teeth and made sure I was doing OK throughout the procedure. I give this office two thumbs up and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new dentist. read more

What a great find. The entire staff was extremely welcoming, professional, and friendly. The exam Dr. Kubina provided was comprehensive, thorough, and comfortable. Dr. Kubina took the time to explain the exam, results, and recommendations. The cleaning was excellent, I was very happy with the results and it was very painless. Also, they were very considerate with treatment and care given that I am pregnant and that was a bonus. Being a military spouse we have moved countless times and I have encountered many different kinds of dentists who have pressed unnecessary treatments, procedures, or even tacked on surprise bills at the end of treatment. This was not the case with Dr. Kubina. Dr. Kubina's office is straight forward, has the patient's best interest at heart, and overall is very caring. If you're looking for an honest dentist with quality of care in mind then I would recommend Dr. Kubina's office and staff. Very satisfied and the office indeed deserves a "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" 5+ star rating. I'm actually looking forward to my next dentist appointment in 6 months! read more

Ive been going to Dr. Kubina for almost 2 years. I couldn't be happier with my experience with him and everyone at his office. I have always had lot of issues with my teeth unfortunately, so I have seen them quite a bit. Not only is he professional, but he has come up several creative solutions to unusual problems, and he has come in during on his day off see me when it was important. Also, they have helped me significantly when dealing with insurance. I am very grateful I was referred here! read more

A friend at work referred me to Dr Kubina. He is thorough and has a personality as well. I feel like I am receiving quality care from the Dr and his entire staff. The office is very clean and there is plenty of free parking. Look for the building number if you are having a hard time figuring out where to go. It's #1. Dr Kubina is a little further drive for me but so worth it. He has a website where you can see their pictures and read about their business model. He takes my insurance and Wendy takes care of all the details for me. read more

Dr. Kubina is an amazing dentist. I have been going to him for over 8 years. I now live in Boston, but when coming back to San Diego I always make sure to go and see Dr. Kubina for my cleaning. Dr. Kubina's number one priority is patient care and I can always count on him for an honest assessment of my dental health. read more

Dr. Craig Kubina, the super dentist, absolute cordial and professional in ways that you forget that you're with a dentist getting your teeth worked on...where it can be very discomforting but not here.., not with Dr.Kubina DDS!! My wife had several visits with him; extensive work done to her several over due teeth which were giving her horrific problems for years and no dentist could help. But we were told he is one of the best; a true dental artist with great work ethics and great attitude. After a few visit to get every single one of problem teeth fixed, my wife has never been more at the height of comfort, no pain, no numbness, just all better she can actually chew and eat and drink. And one more important thing is that he is not the type that will tell you you need this done and you need that done just to make extra bucks off of you. He is honest and fair. Truly One rare breed of dentist left these days. I'm confident that you'd be absolutely gratified if you visit him with any dental work you may need done. Shopping for Dentist isn't like shopping for shoes where it doesn't hurt and you can always put them back on the shelf. Going to a bad dentist, you not only lose a bus load of money, you lose your teeth and your time..and it sure as shit hurt like hell. read more

Dr Kubina and all of the support staff in the office are exceptional. I always feel that they are interested and genuinely care about their patients. I have had veneers, fillings, and a root canal done, as well as uneventful cleanings. In all cases the work was done in a way that made me feel confident and comfortable. Everything was explained in advance. I think Dr Kubina is great. I guess the thing that really convinced me was when I was in great pain and Dr. Kubina agreed to come in to the office for me even though it was over Memorial Day weekend. You just don't find a dentist like that everywhere. read more

I have been going to this office since I was a kid. Wendy (the receptionist) has watched me grow up back when when the office was formerly Dr. Wecklerly's and before her Dr. Bliss. Dr. Kubina is very knowledgeable and friendly and Ashley the hygienist is gentle and thorough. I actually love coming here and having my teeth cleaned. Appointment times are true appointments times and the office is clean and a comfortable temperature. 5 stars will go here forever! read more

Staff is pretty good. This dentist is one of the worst I have ever been to. I would not recommend him ever.

I have been going to Dr Kubina's for quite sometime now. He is very caring about his patients, and I always have the #1 best quality care given. He has the best people working for him too, always happy and smiling. They make you feel at ease when you first walk in. I have known Wendy as long as I have been going there and she's just awesome. I highly recommend this dentist to anyone! read more

Dr. Kubina is amazing. My 4 and 6 year old daughters had fillings done by him and he was so gentle and kind that they actually enjoy going to the dentist! He has an awesome personality, but not only that, he is a perfectionist and has done a great job with my teeth as well as my entire family. I highly recommend him for a job well done. He treats us like family and I have a very positive experience every time. Thanks Dr. Kubina!!! read more

Yes, my friends, there is a Santa Claus. And there are still good, honest, caring dentists out there. Craig Kubina is one of them. Because of the substandard care that I'd received elsewhere (don't get me started), I had to have a number of crowns replaced. Nobody likes that. But Kubina has made it as tolerable as possible. I can tell that he actually cares. With some dentists you can tell that they're burned out on caring about what the patient feels, and they just want to get the work done. Kubina still cares. He cares about the quality of his work, and he cares about my comfort. I have TMJ and he actually massaged the joint of my jaw twice during treatment, just to make me more comfortable. Nuff said. I'm glad I'm older than he is, because he mustn't retire before I die. No one else will ever work on my teeth again. read more

As far as I am concerned, I have found the best dentist and dental office in the world and I will never go any where else. Any time I deal with Dr. Kubina or his office, I feel like I am being treated like a family member. I am a big baby and have never liked going to the dentist but now, I don't mind. They are all so friendly and make me feel so comfortable. Dr. Kubina walks you through his process and tells you what he is doing as he goes. He is great with the needle as I have never even felt a shot! He always has a big reassuring smile and always makes me feel like he will take good care of me. Wendy is always so friendly and accommodating and always a pleasure to deal with. I live in north county but the 30 minuet drive is well worth it. I love my dentist and will never go any where else. read more

Simply the best. Dr. Kubina and his staff have taken care of my family for many years. He's cared for my elderly parents as well as my husband and myself. He's cared for our two children since they were in junior high, and they're in their 20s today. He's extremely knowledgeable about dentistry and only recommends what is absolutely necessary. His costs are in line with other dentists in the area, but you can have the confidence that you're getting the best care available and not being billed for unnecessary procedures. His office personnel are so nice. Wendy has been his front office person from the beginning. She's so nice and very efficient. His hygienist is so gentle but thorough. Don't go anywhere else! read more

Super awesome doctor. Treats you as if you were a friend. Doesn't have the typical doctor mentality that some possess. Place is clean staff is friendly. Really relaxed setting. read more

Dr. Kubina and his staff are the best dental team out there. They provide a caring and personable atmosphere while doing their jobs thoroughly and well. The office is exceptionally managed and clean. The Dr.'s assistants are professional, caring and knowledgable. Kubina himself is a great dentist and one of the nicest people I've met in my life. I'm writing this as I search for a new dentist because I can't afford to go out of my health insurance network. It was awesome to see how many stars Dr. Kubina had, and simultaneously terrible to see the dentists in my network/area and their scores.. I will miss Dr. Kubina and his wonderful staff, at least until my work switches insurance.... -Chris Young read more

If anyone asks me for the name of a dentist I tell them about Dr. Kubina. After many years of neglect, I realized I had a serious dental issue that was getting worse by the day. After reading reviews on Yelp and looking through names on my insurance company's list, I called Dr. Kubina's office. I was so relieved to find a friendly and caring person on the phone who wanted to make sure I was seen as soon as possible. After that first visit I have been back many times and every time has been a pleasure. I completely trust Dr. Kubina. He is personable and gentle. I can honestly say I look forward to seeing my dentist and all of his staff. They are truly a pleasure to see. Even if I leave numb, I am smiling ear to ear. I was so confident in Dr. Kubina and his Hygienist that I took my seven year old. It went better than I even thought it would. My husband and daughter will be seeing Dr. Kubina as well. I could go on and on. Positives: * Gentle * On time * Courteous * Enjoyable * Plenty of parking * Great with kids too Negatives: * No Friday appointments (which would be good for my family) read more

Dr. Kubina has been our dentist for several years. He and his staff treat patients respectfully, professionally and kindly. I have recommended him to other family and friends. Any fears of dentistry have disappeared since placing our oral health in his hands! read more

Dr. Kubina (and formerly Dr. Wecklerly) has been my family's dentist for over 10 years, and I love this office. No matter where I move, I'll continue to drive to La Mesa. He is obsessed with teeth and does a GREAT job on cleanings. And the office does not book so that you're kept waiting forever when you get there...usually get right in. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Kubina's for quite sometime now. Besides very caring about his patients, I feel like I always have the #1 best quality care given. The staff working for him too are outstanding. I have known Wendy as long as I have been going there and she's just awesome. I highly recommend this dentist to anyone! read more

I was introduced to Dr Kubina and his staff a few years ago and must say if I have to see a dentist i will always choose this practice. Wendy always has a smile and a solution and Dr.Kubina is gentle and honest. Did I mention my irrational fear of the dentist.... it has not gone away but he is quick to reassure me and calm my nerves read more

Honestly, I enjoy going to Dr. Kubina's Office and I can't rave enough about my positive dental experience. I found him to be gentle, caring, and most importantly pain-free, while providing outstanding quality care. His staff Wendy, Jen, and Yvonne are polite and friendly, and the office always runs on time. I wouldn't hesitate referring my family and friends to Dr. Kubina, because he is simply the best!!! read more

Have you ever loved going to the dentist? Probably not. After recently moving from Los Angeles, I was faced with the endeavor to find a new dentist. Yelp led the way. After reading Dr. Kubina's reviews, I felt it was worth a try. Wendy, the office manager was friendly and professional. She made me feel like I'd been coming to the office for years. I was dreading getting my cleaning that day until Yvonne, the dental hygienist, made me feel at ease. Now when I tell you it was the best teeth cleaning I've ever gotten, I am not lying. With a gentle but effective touch, Yvonne proceeded to clean my teeth better than they've ever been cleaned before. Finally, I met with Dr. Kubina and his assistant Jennifer. Jennifer promptly sat me in the adjacent room and with a friendly smile, then notified me the Dr. would be right in. After Dr. Kubina introduced himself, we had a pleasant discussion about my dental history, some of his concerns, and some ways I could help with my own dental care. Never did I feel pressure or like I was being sold on any treatment. I look forward to going to Dr. Kubina for years to come. read more

Dr kubina is the best!! I've gone to him for years now his whole staff is friendly professional and all around nice good people. He always on good time, and on point. For someone who hates going to the dentist he makes it a very good experience all around, and the office is always clean. There's a ton of parking in the lot so that's never a problem either. read more

No one looks forward to going to the dentist, but if you go to Craig Kubina then you at least wont dread it. Everyone in that office is an absolute pleasure to be around. A genuine person is hard to find and despite how uncomfortable dental procedures can be, I always leave Kubina's happier then when I came in because of the genuine smiles, genuine conversation and mutual respect that the patients have for them and they for us. Whether your coming in for a teeth cleaning or something more serious, Dentist Kubina and his staff make it as quick and painless as can be. They are always ready for you when you arrive and make it their mission to not waste your time. They are the definition of professionals and know their field inside and out. You can trust Craig Kubina's advice. He would never want to put you through anything that isn't absolutely necessary, but at the same time, he is there to keep your mouth healthy and will be honest with you about the truth of the situation. No one in this office makes you feel bad or guilty for having a cavity, they know we are all human! I can't recommend this Dental Office enough!! My dentist even gave me a recipe for the best Fettuccine Alfredo ever, can you say that? read more
