    Horrible orthodontist. He will destroy your teeth. He's very absent minded and doesn't care about anything but the money.

    Let me start off by saying that my experience with the x-ray tech and the actual doctor was…read morephenomenal... Unfortunately, my experience with the receptionist left me absolutely sick over the carelessness and disrespect of my time, money, and resources: I was very transparent when I first contacted Ever After Dental regarding the poor experiences that I received at a previous dentists office and I provided all of my insurance information well in advance before physically visiting the office. The receptionist verified that their services were covered under my insurance, and we even had an email correspondence where I verified that I did not need to complete the out of network authorization paperwork because it did not apply to me. I scheduled the suggested follow up services, then received a predetermination that stated the doctor was out of network. I contacted the insurance and subsequently Ever After Dental: ultimately the receptionist was able to contact the insurance and verify what the insurance said is true in less than 20 minutes with no additional information from me, but could not do that prior to my visit. When questioned as to why this wasn't done prior to my visit despite my providing all of the information required and having the email correspondence regarding this explicitly, she could not take responsibility for her actions. She kept asking what I wanted out of this conversation and I had to explain to her that I needed to know her negligence was the reason I wasted an entire days worth of sick time for this visit that wasn't going to go anywhere. She could not. Don't waste your time. Find another dentist who's receptionist is responsible enough to do their job 100%

They went…read moreoff an old xray from years ago and what was suppose to be a cavity filling turned into a tooth needing a root canal and crown. They hit my nerve put a temp filling in once the numbness went away I went so much pain! I couldn't sleep I couldn't close my mouth they didn't give any medicine. When I called the next morning they couldn't squeeze me in to fix the pain and issues they caused! My husband comes to San Dimas family dentistry and highly recommended them. I called was a new patient and they were able to get me in same day, take care of the root canal and do the temp crown all in the same day. My pain was wrong. The dr was gentle explained what was happening through out the way. Him and his staff are very honest and explain everything. Being able to be seen as a new patient and have so much work done the same day meant so much when the dentist I've been going to couldn't even do that. I will no longer be going back to them and sticking to San Dimas Family Dentistry. I highly recommend them and promise you won't be disappointed.

    This was by far THE WORST experience ive had at the dentist. I went in for a crown and later found…read moreout from another dentist that I didnt need a crown on that tooth. Also, the dentist was VERY rough...I cant remember the last time I cried at the dentist and boy did I...also the crown was cracked and was extremely bulky. I had to get it replaced (at another dentist) which was a far better experience.

I wanted to make sure my kids had a good…read morefirst experience at the dentist -- as this sets the tone for all future appointments -- & after reviewing their ratings I decided it sounded like a good place to visit. Every person we talked to was very welcoming including the doctor. My toddler is very curious and they were friendly towards him as well as my 1.5 year old who was giving a little push back towards her cleaning. The doctor was even humming a little Lullaby while doing her cleaning that calmed her down immediately and she let him do everything he needed to. Sometimes doctors offices have this passive / passive aggressive tone to them and this is absolutely not the case here. I loved my kids first experience, I look forward to coming back for their checkups

The office was clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed with a fun beach and underwater theme that feels more like a little aquarium than a dental office. As a mom, I really appreciate when a place goes the extra mile to make kids feel comfortable, and Caring Kids Dental absolutely does. We've always had great experiences with this practice, but their new location makes it even better. I'm so glad we followed them after the move. I highly recommend Caring Kids Dental to any parents looking for a positive dental experience for their kids.

    It's a high pressure, buzz word sales clinic, I came into this office because I had changed dental…read moreinsurance and my old dental office which I had been going to for years was no under this coverage. I have always been on top of all my dental visits, check-ups, X-Rays and cleanings (3x/year). Come the appointment for cleaning, the hygienist comes in hot and tells me I have major issues with my gums and need to have a deep cleaning ($140 OOP) and laser gum treatment ($400 OOP) then maintain deep cleanings every 2-3 years with routine cleaning every 3 months because of my "advanced gum deterioration" keep in mind my other dental office with routine check-ups and X-rays never found anything wrong nor have I felt anything out of the ordinary. I asked her to just perform routine cleaning and she refused stating that there is no point to doing that and only a deep cleaning and/or laser gum treatment is what is recommended, I was stuck in the moment and the chair I said go ahead and deep clean it. Also note, the only time I ever did a real deep cleaning it was done in two visits with 2 quadrants cleaned at a time, she cranked it out everything so fast so it was basically a normal messy cleaning labeled and charged as a deep clean. After the cleaning I consulted a few hygienist friends I have and got their opinion, a deep cleaning is pretty extreme and almost unnecessary if you've already had one and maintain good hygiene and regular check-ups/cleanings and they all pretty much summed up how some clinics will absolutely be sales driven and up-sell or recommend unnecessary procedures to rack up the bill. I'm going back to my old dental office and paying out of pocket, I had no idea there's a dark side to this industry and it showed here. The whole process did not feel right at all, it was rushed, sales pitch was fast, filled with strong buzz words and fabricated urgency like a used car lot or old gym memberships. I should have just left and went for a second opinion at another office.
