The dentist at this location is very pushy and rude. The staff however seemed nice. Not a kid friendly place at the Santee location you'll likely get referred out as we did. My kids were excited (they have always loved going to the dentist) but well behaved. Having been to the Point Loma location, which we love but is now too far away, I was shocked with how I was treated. He seemed like an over eager egotistical young pushy dentist who needs to learn some people skills. I asked to be contacted by the office manager and never received a call. read more

My family and myself have been coming here for the past year. Dr. Marty is amazing, he is very good with my kids (ages, 5, and 6). He kept us all comfortable and they work quickly. I was never in any pain and they explained everything they were doing as they worked. Great place, clean, friendly staff. I recommend this dental office. read more

The best dentist I have been to by far! The dental assitants are all incredibly nice and knowledgeable, the dentists themselves work quickly and actually care about your dental health not how much money they make off you. Everyone is super friendly. I came in today for a check up and cleaning, I was in and out in no time! Love the cleanliness of the waiting room as well. read more

Dr. Marti is the best! After experiencing the worst at the super dentist I had little hope for my son .. this office is beautiful and the staff are the sweetest ! My son has had horrible experiences at super dentist so he is always apprehensive and tense they take their time and really make you feel comfortable and at ease, I'm so happy we found this place! THANK YOU! read more

i only have good things to say about this dental office. it took me a long time to find a dentist i am happy with because i have had bad experiences in the past and have a bit of ptsd of dentists! i love this dental office and am surprised at my experience going to Dental Express in Santee! here are few of the many positives i want to share: * easy to make appointments * staff is very courteous, kind, and friendly : beth, sherri, reyna and robert were all great! (i apologize if i misspelled anyone's names!) * they make sure you feel relaxed and try to take away any anxiety of the dentist * dr salvani extracted my tooth and it was painless and it took only a few minutes to extract. i did not experience any pain during or after the procedure! she is very easy going and takes time to make sure you are comfortable at all times. * i also took my kids here and they had a pain free experience * cute train theme * easy check in procedure you can do on their ipads or on your phone * adheres to covid protocols: mask required, temperature checks, ppes and gloves * ample parking * they don't push you to do any procedures you don't need! read more

I was a new patient and already feeling anxious about trying a new dentist. They were quick and efficient. Lisa my hygienist was friendly and had a gentle hand during cleaning which I usually dread but the use of the sonic cleanser helped ease my anxiety of scraping and future sore gums. Dr. Patel gave me a thorough exam and it didn't feel rushed. She made me feel like I was her first patient of the day. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I'll definitely be back. read more

This is the only dental office I think I will ever use. The staff and dentists are amazing! They have my loyalty and I used to HATE going to the dentist, seriously avoided it for 10 years. Thank you Dental Express!!! read more

The staff was extremely kind from the moment I walked in till I left! Marwa was amazing and took her time! She was very sweet! I'll definitely be back read more

About two months ago, I had the worst toothache of my life, my regular dentist gave me an appointment for a month, so I went to the emergency room at Grossmont, and the Dr. told me to go back to my dentist. In my desperation, I went on line in search for a clinic that could see me ASAP. By miracle I found Dental Express, and they were able to treat me the same day I call them. The staff treated me with compassion and respect, and Dr. Marty took his time examining my tooth and he proceeded with a partial root canal and administered medication that brought relief immediately, no more pain, I couldn't believe it. They Scheduled an appointment to go back to finished the root canal. Thank you Dental Express. read more

I wanted to leave a separate review for Marwa my hygienist for the day she was super nice and easy with my sensitive gums. She educated me more about flossing and and brushing the right way.overall this dental office was what I've been looking for. Happy PT here ! :) thank you Marwa :) read more

Excellent experience. Wonderful staff! They were very good with my toddler, who was upset at first, they let her sit with me during the exam. This is the best family dentist I've ever been too. Definitely worth the drive. read more

I finally found a great dental office where they are friendly and the dentist and hygenist are gentle and a pleasure to be with.

Great experience! They were patient and followed my sons (3 year Old) lead as far as what he would and would not do. They have a really neat train that travels all through the office. The office is extremely clean and all staff are very nice. Thanks dental express! read more

I was on the hunt for an office that was open and was able to take in new patients. This office was actually on the list of "dentists near me." I wanted to be seen same day due to pain from my wisdom teeth. As soon as I made the call, the gentleman who picked up the phone was more than willing to help. He had a calm and understanding voice and was able to fit me in same day. As soon as I got here, I was greeted with friendly smiles and welcoming faces. Filled out paperwork, and was taken back within 10 minutes. X-rays were fast and easy. Dr. Marty introduced himself and reviewed everything with me. Very confidently, he set up a series of phases for my care. I asked if something could be done same day and he said not a problem. I was experiencing some anxiousness, but he and his assistant kept reassuring me I would be fine. He numbed me up and did a filling and an extraction with such ease and in such a short amount of time. Overall experience was so smooth. Definitely recommending my friends and family to hop on the Dental Express! read more

I've had several bad experiences with dental offices that take MediCal, but this place was awesome. Everyone was extremely nice & the office/equipment was super clean. Martin Weinstein was able to do my work the same day and got me in and out of there. Overall, my experience was so smooth. The guy that checked me out(I think his name was Will) was so nice & even gave me a tshirt for my first time visit. We need more places like this place! read more

Very good service and everyone was really friendly! Very satisfied they know what they are doing and it seems like they care

First, let me start off by acknowledging the fact that it was my first time being seated in the operatory room in less than 10 minutes of waiting in the lobby with including the time in which I was filling the new patient forms out. I also would like to mention how taking X-rays at my dental office visits are my least favorite part because I tend to gag in the process; however, I barely felt a thing while taking X-rays at Dental Express thanks to the amazing dental assistant Alfred. I was evaluated by Dr. Marty who was passionate about treating my teeth and creating a plan to focus on one area at a time to decide on doing the best treatment. He was also super approachable and listened to me speak of what concerned me most about my teeth. My cleaning process wasn't rushed and the hygienist Duaa took her time to cause no pain and to clean the teeth to their best! Last but not least, I left the office with a goodie bag that consisted of a toothbrush, tooth paste, and a floss. Amazing experience! It is about making patients happy here! read more

Had a great experience. Shelby, Dr. Martin, and the staff overall are great. Great bedside manner! Responded and addressed my concerns with professionalism and warmth. read more

Was my first time in this office. I had a dental issue and my reg. dentist office was closed. I called and got an appointment that morning. Parking is very good and the office is super clean, all things that you do notice. Front desk was very efficient and courteous. I needed a temp. crown replaced as I lost mine yesterday and did not want to go without until next week. The dentist was very professional and I also told them I have anxiety about any dentist. I felt very comfortable and I had my new temp. crown within an hour. Checking out was easy as well. The assistant even gave me some floss to take home. So for all that they do deserve 5 stars from me and my experience. They are also open on Sat. until 2 p.m read more

This place is awesome left with my daughter askiyhow soon we can come back!!!! Thank you for changing my daughters look on the dentist!!!!

Took my 9 year old granddaughter to the santee location about a month ago. Very clean and professional. The staff was great and the surroundings comfortable. It had been a while since she had been to a dentist since she has Med I cal and not a lot of good dentists take that. She felt very well at ease and she was very well taken care of. read more

I was very happy with my dental checkup. I was able to schedule an appointment soon, the next day after calling. The office was brand new. All staff were very professional. The dentist was very through and had excellent communication skills. The cost was just $75 for the first exam including X-rays. I recommend! read more

I stumbled upon this place when I was looking through a list of dentists that were taking my insurance. I must say that I absolutely LOVE this dental office! All of the staff is so amazing, extremely friendly, and so gentle! I was almost looking for a new reason to go to the dentist just to see everyone! I had to get a filling and I must say that I had the BEST shot of my life! I almost didn't even feel it! I have never been so thrilled and excited to have found a dentist! I hope to keep them as my dental office for a very long time! Dr Patel floats between offices and I really hope they make her full time Santee, as she is now my favorite dentist I have ever been too! There are so many staff members that have stood out to me, and I adore every one of them! Thank you so much for everything you guys have done for me! I can't wait t come back read more

It's my daughter's first dental appointment every thing went smooth the doctor and staff are great thanks

This is a great place. I went here on a Friday 15 minutes before closing with my son who had a mishap from a tug of war gone horribly wrong at Project Safe. The staff welcomed us warmly and took great care of my son. They cleaned up his face and numbed him up right away to move along with the procedures to try and save my son's tooth. Dr. Marti walked me thru the entire process and put us all at ease. He called today to check in on my son, which I thought was very thoughtful. Kudos to you Dr. Marti! I'm impressed with the care you've provided so far. read more

I had a dental emergency and was able to get an appointment first thing on a Saturday morning. Dr. Marty and his staff were professional, friendly, and gentle. The problem was taken care of immediately and staff explained everything along the way, including my options. I will definitely be going back! read more

What a great Dental Office, seriously Dr. Marty, Shelby & Yuriko were extremely professional and very nice. I would definitely recommend this dental office. read more

Excellent dental office. Dr. Martin Weinstein was amazing along with his staff. I had a filling done about a year ago on a front tooth. The look of it always bothered me. Before I even mentioned this to Dr. Weinstein he said, "I'm going to be redoing that filling on the front." I was so pleased to hear that and know he cared about how my teeth looked. Now you can't even tell I have a filling. I am very pleased with the results. So happy this office opened up in Santee. read more
