    Two weeks after the procedure was done. Should've been healed by then.

    Got my wisdom teeth removed, they fractured my jaw and dislocated it They only prescribe me ibuprofen, and I actually gotten an argument with the lady at the front desk writing the prescriptions (only the doctor supposed to prescribe medicine) saying that it's normal and I'll be fine. Had to go to the ER three times after that, my face was swollen beyond belief Finally got an appointment with a different doctor at the same location and they told me I would have to go to physical therapy after my mouth heals. I was in pain for weeks after and it seemed like they didn't care at all. My face was so swollen no one in my family recognized who I was until I told them it was me I was under anesthesia and not even 30 seconds after the procedure was done and I walked myself out of that building almost falling over, no one escorted me out to make sure I was OK after being put under and as soon as I opened my eyes, the doctor was gone. Completely unprofessional, and when I called them to see if they could prescribe anything for the pain, the lady laughed and hung up on me.

    Entrance

    About 6 months ago I went to a dental office which did X-rays, cleaning and full first patient exam in under 25 minutes with no follow up visit scheduled and perfect bill of health. At Golden State Smile, I had a completely different experience with Dr. Elisa who wasn't simply addressing my mouth, but each tooth individually, front and back. She then retraced her steps and measured each one which allowed her to order deep cleaning for my teeth which is covered by my insurance since there were findings to warrant it. At the other place, I had no cavities and no problems after an extremely quick exam while here, after a very thorough exam, I ended up needing deep cleaning and filling of 3 cavities. The way she spoke made me feel like I was an individual she cared for rather than just a number; it could have been her subtle Colombian accent, but whatever it was, I was extremely happy and confident that I've finally found a highly knowledgeable and caring doctor who wants to see me have a bright beautiful smile full of teeth for a long time. Oh and I read some of the other reviews with people complaining about the doctor's here finding issues which others couldn't, and all I could say is that I would rather have a smaller issue fixed today before I have to face a bigger issue down the line because I prefer a true bill of health over a false clean bill of health.

    Took my mom there to get some teeth extracted and I was very satisfied. The process was very fast and she had no complications.

I really appreciate Dr. Han and his staff. My only honest feedback was for them to check their appointments and when a staff member last talked to a patient when it comes to setting and confirming appointments since I had 2 calls that were confusing. It was quickly resolved.

Not only did I see Dr. Han at my scheduled time (instead of waiting 40 minutes like a lot of other doctors in the area) but he spent a total of 50 minutes with me going over my issues. He recommended another specialist in the building and even walked down with me to go see them. He kept saying "I'm very honest, not trying to be rude..." which I never felt at all - tell people what they need to know, not what they want to hear. I hope I'll be able to use Dr. Han with some of my mouth issues, after spending a little time with him I absolutely trust him.

    Dr. Iranmanesh removed my four wisdom teeth a little over a week ago and the experience has been as…read moregood as I could have hoped for. The extraction itself was very smooth, and I was done in less than 30 minutes. Dr. I's team had me take Valium, they gave me some nitrous, and IV sedation so I remembered nothing. The local anesthetic took about the rest of the day to wear off and they sent me off with a little baggie full of everything i'd need, including teabags to stop the bleeding, a tablet of Zofran, toothbrush, mouth rinse, and a little tooth-shaped container with my wisdom teeth inside, lol. They even wrapped me up with a little ice pack headband which helped a lot. The healing process was extremely smooth. I was given a sheet with info about what to eat and how to take care of the extraction sites. I followed the instructions and had almost no swelling at all. I was able to start eating and drinking soft things and experienced no pain either. I was so relieved as I had been extremely worried about this. After 9 days I returned for the follow-up appointment, they gave me a long syringe with a curved tip for irrigating the sites, and gave me the go-ahead to return to my typical diet and habits. What really stood out to me was how caring and attentive Dr. I and his team were throughout the whole experience. I received a handwritten note in the mail a few days later letting me know that the surgery had been smooth and telling me I'd been a great patient. They had some difficulty finding a good vein for the IV sedation and poked me several times, but they took great care to wrap my arms and hand where they poked me to prevent bruising. The chair for the surgery was heated and they covered me with a blanket during the procedure. Their attention to detail makes a huge difference especially since a lot of people have a lot of fear of dental procedures.

    I have a loose implant that I originally did in Mexico. I did my research and got different quotes…read moreand second opinions but my general dentist referred me to Dr. Ali Iranmanesh and said he is the best. I went to the consult and was a complete wreck because I was so afraid of what the next steps were and what it was going to cost. The team was very reassuring and, instead of just telling me "I need to do a whole new implant for you", he referred me to a prosthodontics specialist first. Depending on what she said, would follow up with him. He consulted with her, my general dentist and potential ortho on what the best course of action would be. He was also very understanding of my financial situation and worked with me. Super thankful for their kindness. I am hoping I don't need to replace my implant (fingers crossed) but I would definitely go back there to do it.

I've been through many things in…read moremy life, but the whole process involving instruments in my mouth just bothers me to no end. Dr. Yen is an honest and straight forward man. I appreciated his gentle humor and his understanding of how I feel in the situation. When I asked him for a simple extraction, he told me that he would try. He then told me that more than likely, my tooth would shatter and require more attention. He told me what I could expect and he explained the whole process. Dr. Yen numbed me and made sure that I was completely numb. He frequently checked to ensure that I was feeling no pain and he went about his work quickly. He also kept communicating with me the whole time which I appreciated. It was a welcome distraction from what was going on inside my mouth. I recommend Dr. Yen to anyone requiring dental surgery.

I called, made an appointment, took her in, he removed the three wisdom teeth, we were done in under an hour. Great job. However, when I got the post-insurance invoice, it had a line item for "CHUN:D9310:Consultation" dated the day before the extraction. Not only was there never any Consultation, certainly not the day before the appointment, but when I called to request it be removed, they refused. The billing lady claimed it did happen, I was there and know it didn't happen - and yet she refused to remove this fraudulent charge. Dr. Yen is fine - but beware beware beware - his office will charge you and your isurance company for fraudulent non-existent line items.
