I came back as a walk in visit to fix my temporary crown that cracked over the weekend, and this…read moreexperience was much better than my initial one. I arrived around noon and Noemi helped schedule a same day appointment since the dentists were out for lunch. When I returned later, Debbie went over and showed me the documents before I signed anything, which made me feel a lot more comfortable. I also spoke with a family friend in dentistry, and they reassured me that the procedures they proposed were actually necessary, which helped ease some of my concerns. During my visit again, Dr. Gaffino explained that my pain was due to the tooth needing a bit more shaving since I couldn't feel it while numb from the other day. Once she adjusted it, the pressure and ache went away almost instantly. The whole visit was quick, efficient, and I walked out with no more pain/discomfort. Overall, I appreciated the improved bedside manner, communication, and quick and effective work this time around! This visit felt much more helpful and fair.

I was in the area and walked in. The front office was friendly and answered my questions. I ended…read moreup scheduling an appointment that day and was scheduled later that week. My exam went well and the staff was great. I very much recommend this dental office. I go back next week to finish what needs to be done.

Can I give a 6 out of 5 stars? I'm writing this review after…read morehe did a crown for me on a front tooth. The color of the crown was not quite there and even though I couldn't see it in the dental office, he pointed it out. We decided to keep the crown on temporarily so that I could whiten my teeth a bit so that my teeth color would be closer to the crown color. Anyways I am super pleased with how it looks now and he was able to fill out some gaps on the front teeth with some bonding. I am finally able to smile and not see my old discolored crown and gap in the gum line.

I finally found the PERFECT DENTIST. After years of another…read moredentist in Brea who was not so honest..... My Son turned me on to Dr Bae. First off the office is new and has all the latest equipment. The X rays are easy and for those of you who hate having to take impressions.... Hate no more. They don't use those nasty impression trays that ooze all in your mouth and make you GAG. I don't recall what it called but it's like a pen they put around your teeth and it takes a digital picture of your teeth. Dr. Bae will tell you what procedures you need now and what can wait. There is absolutely no pressure. Dr Bae and his staff are all about making you feel comfortable. I highly recommend Angelica for your teeth cleaning appointments. I also have to mention that if you need a crown...you can have it the same day. How awesome is that? No temporary crown and waiting weeks for it to come in. That's so yesterday! Dr. Bae also has their own dental plan. It is a so worth it. As we all know most Dental insurance is not so great. I also have to mention how great Dr. Bae's office staff is. If you are looking for an HONEST DENTIST with a great staff go see Dr. Bae in Brea. PS if you are Petrified of Dentists..... Dr Bae recommends you just come in and talk get to know him and tell him your concerns and have X-rays on the initial visit. He will tell you what needs to be addressed......Then you can decide if you want to proceed. Don't neglect your teeth. Be true to your teeth and they won't be false to you!

Denise has been cleaning my teeth for x number of years. I've lost count. Dr Lee is great too. He replaced my cracked silver filling 6 months ago at my last appointment. Ugh, the drill anxiety was high along with the Novocaine shots. But it was expected since I haven't had any major repair work in several years. This check up was great, as was said by Denise and Dr Lee, no issues to report from my X-rays = boring... I like boring! Lol.

I sort of "inherited" Dr. Lee from the former dentist in this location and I could not be happier!…read more Dr. Lee and his staff are so thoughtful and friendly. They treat their patients with respect and understanding. Although I'd never had any dental work done on my teeth (besides vanity braces and wisdom tooth pull), I had to have my first procedure done at the age of 55 years old. And it was a crown! Ugh. But, finding the root of the problem (pun intended) was done so with care and with accuracy under the watchful eye of Dr. Lee. He eased my fears of having the work done and he sent me to a fantastic endodontist (see Reid Pullen). Together my root canal and crown was a breeze. Dr. Lee is always such a happy guy seems to honestly care about my well-being. He listens and hears me. I haven't had a dentist in quite a few years that I would highly recommend, but I do now!! Thank you Dr. Lee... and Denise (my hygienist) for always taking care of me.

I found Zion Family Dental while looking for a second opinion from another dental office. Creating…read morean appointment was so easy. The lady at the front desk has been the kindest person I have ever met at a dental office. Dr. Daniel and Dr Christiana have been very knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. They were able to explain things to me that I have not heard from other dentists. I looked for a second opinion due to the first office wanting to pull 3 teeth and replace with implants. Zion Family Dental did an exam and thought that was very extreme. They have been conservative and are more focused on saving your teeth and doing what is best for the patient, than pulling and replacing any minor incident with an implant. I have had such a wonderful time there that I have my wife and kids now going to Zion Family Dental. Each time we have gone there we have been greeted by the front desk, they have been on time with each appointment start, and Dr. Christiana has even remembered minor information unrelated to my teeth when I came in for the second time. She definitely goes out of her way to get to know her patients and make them feel comfortable. I am very fortunate for having found them.

My experience with Gentle Dental Brea and Dr. Peter B. Tafesh was extremely concerning and fell far…read morebelow the professional and ethical standards that patients have the right to expect. I was not informed in advance that treatment could not be performed on the same day. This was only disclosed after the examination and presentation of the treatment plan. I was also not informed that my prior X-rays might have been sufficient, and new radiographs were taken without clearly explaining whether they were necessary. After learning that treatment would require a second appointment, I declined the proposed treatment and withdrew my consent. Despite this, the office still submitted claims to my insurance company and later sent billing statements. This raised serious concerns regarding transparency and billing practices. Equally troubling, I later discovered that my dental record contained inappropriate and disparaging comments unrelated to clinical care. Medical records should be factual, objective, and professional. Including subjective or demeaning remarks about a patient is unprofessional and inconsistent with ethical standards of dental practice. In addition, my record noted limited English proficiency, yet no interpreter or adequate explanation was provided to ensure informed consent. Patients have the fundamental right to clear communication, informed consent, accurate medical records, and ethical treatment. Unfortunately, my experience at this office did not meet those basic standards. At the same time,my experience at Gentle Dental Brea was deeply disappointing and unprofessional. During my visit, I was repeatedly presented with multiple expensive treatment recommendations that were clearly not covered by insurance. These procedures would have required significant out-of-pocket payment. I was given the strong impression that these costly options were being promoted without sufficient explanation of medical necessity or alternatives. When I declined these treatments, the doctor 's attitude toward me changed noticeably. Instead of respecting my decision as a patient, I later found that my dental record described me as "rude." This was shocking and completely inappropriate. A patient has the absolute right to accept or decline any proposed treatment, especially when it involves substantial personal expense. Labeling a patient negatively in their medical record simply because they declined costly, non-covered procedures is unprofessional and raises serious concerns about the office's ethics and respect for patient autonomy. Patients should never feel pressured into expensive treatments or be treated disrespectfully for making informed financial and medical decisions. Based on my experience, I strongly advise others to exercise caution and carefully evaluate any recommended treatments, especially those requiring significant out-of-pocket costs.

This location has cancelled my daughter's teeth cleaning FOUR times in a row. They told us the…read moredentist was not in when we arrived today at the office. This time say they called to let us know the dentist was not in this morning. I have no missed calls and have no messages. I have confirmation texts confirming the appointment. They had a sign visible in the check in area for month saying their sales goals for the month which doesn't make you feel great when you are being charged large amounts of money out of pocket and being upsold. Come here if you would like to waste your time driving in circles. Changing dentists.
