I went in to Dr. Latha after my pediatric dentist told me it was time to graduate ;) I had not been to a dentist in over a year and had some cavities. Dr. Latha has the latest technologies that she reviews and explains thoroughly. Upon finding a cavity underneath a filling I had gotten 10 years ago, she performed an Onlay and was incredibly patient with me. A few months later, she was performing a sealant and discovered a cavity that was a lot deeper than originally thought. I have very sensitive teeth and a 40 minute appointment quickly turned into 2 hours as I kept raising my hand, asking them to take breaks. Dr. Latha remained patient and steady, going at my pace and making sure I was comfortable. She helped make sure the procedure was FULLY covered by my insurance and followed up with me via text message later that evening (around 9 pm!) 100% recommend seeing her! read more

Still 6 of us receiving care from Dr. Latha. She's worked with me to design a mouth guard to address my sleep apnea which she diagnosed. She's adapted care for my dad who has increasing physical mobility issues. I've thought for years that the vendors at the dental conventions must grin when they see her coming because she's always ready to learn about cutting edge technologies and how to implement them into her practice. I can say it was very fun watching my dental implant get 3d printed in the waiting room. read more

When you find a dentist to be gentle and caring you hold on to them. Dr Latha has been my dentist for 20 years and am writing this now as I broke my tooth over a holiday weekend and she came in to take care of it. As you walk into her office, not only do you see her stellar credentials but also the many art work which affirms how artistic and talented she is. She has taken care of my parents and my my now adult children also go to her. Dr Latha stays on top of her field with her fellowships also. Overall the best dentist I have ever seen. read more

Incredibly rude dentist. She really lacks manners on how to speak to people. She seemed rushed and snapped at me when I asked questions about my procedure, making me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. A dentist should be not only skilled but also compassionate. I left feeling more stressed than when I arrived and will definitely be seeking care elsewhere. I cannot recommend this practice. read more

I have been a patient under Dr. Latha and her care and attention to detail is impeccable. Her office staff are super approachable and friendly. read more

I am always very nervous to go to the dentist, but I almost forgot that I was at the dentist having work done on my teeth. Jackie, Julia, and especially Dr. Latha were very professional, kind people who made me feel comfortable and in good hands. Not only does Dr. Latha do a good job cleaning my teeth, she's a pleasure to spend time with. Great personality and conversation. The team and clinic really go out of their way to make sure the patients have a great experience. They even offer a choice of different flavor chapstick (the carrot one is divine). I will definitely be referring my friend and family. Thank you Dr. Latha. read more

I really appreciate Dr. Latha, she treated me 3 times, and made nightguard for me, about one month later, I feel like my TMJ issue is cured and I dont feel pain in my face recently, Dr Latha is prefessional! read more

There is no negative rating, hence giving 1 star!!! Our Insurance changed, so we had to change our dentist. I went for the first time with my teenage son (he turns 16 years old in a few days) for his dental cleaning yesterday. He has NIL cavities but needs regular Dental Cleaning as he is on braces. Right from minute 1, she sounded condescending, dismissive and behaved a "know-it-all" without even asking us any questions and explanations - I was expecting the opposite (Since it was our first visit, I expected her to spend the 1 hour for which the appointment was booked. She spent exactly 32 minutes in total). Out of the 32 minutes, she spent 15 minutes explaining why I should take the Pano Xray at her office and not at the orthodontist and how the dentist needs the XRay more than the orthodontist to check for diseases (our orthodontist is one of the best in the area and has modern equipment). Keep in mind this is our first visit, and our previous dentist had no issues in us taking XRays anywhere as long she was able to review it. I calmly told Latha that going forward we can do the XRays at her office, however since it was already done the previous day at our orthodontist's office, we can request our orthodontist's office to send the XRay. When the XRay arrived from our orthodontist WITHIN 5 MINUTES of our visit for Latha to review, she spent less than 1 minute on it!! She kept on mentioning what & how I should have parented (!!!) 6 years back instead of focusing on the work at hand (which was just Dental cleaning and my son has NIL cavities). My teenage son who is ALWAYS quite calm and composed, came out of her office and told me "I am not coming back to this pushy, arrogant and know-it-all dentist. You find me a different one". I called the office immediately and cancelled my daughter's dental cleaning which I had taken for next week (Yes, we had planned for our entire family to be treated by her going forward, but were appalled by her snobbish and scornful behavior in our first appointment itself. We are no longer going back to her). She has a long way to go to learn how to NOT rub people on the wrong way. Do note that all the other reviews which have glorified her (& fooled us too) seem to be fabricated. I just realized that if I put the two-&-two together, the timeline of folks saying that she has been an excellent dentist for decades just does not match!! read more

Very unprofessional; didn't inform us they were no longer in network with our dental insurance which ended up costing us thousands of dollars due to frequency limits on necessary services read more

Dr. Latha and co. are great! They use new laser technology to make procedures faster and more efficient. They are easy to work with and take care of insurance claims. Getting to their office is easy and parking is no problem. They open early which is convenient when you prefer to go in before work. As a bonus, I get a free chap stick when i go in for services. :) read more

Latha Subramanian, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Mountain View, California

its reall y something to smile about when you find the right dentist who understands your every fear and has the gentlest hands. I have been a patient of Dr Latha's for about 7-8 years now and every time am blown away by her expertise and constant skills update.The office is MODERN and she has all the tech gadgets one would need,super convenient to make an appt with texts and emails.Yes they take care of you're insurance, make everything easy, give you blankets and chapsticks and fun over you.But my reason for going here is the honest and sincere care I receive. I trust the work immensely. Have had several gum issues with food getting caught everywhere and used to be so embarrassed when I go out for dinner even.Now I have finally gotten my gums better with her laser treatments and wear my night guard and my TMJ and me at my happiest.Love to be pain free and have faith that my teeth and gums are in the best care and no more dental nightmares. read more

I was seeing Dr. Latha for 7 years before moving out of state. I am devastated at losing the best dentist I've ever had. Here are the top 5 reasons that Dr. Latha's office is like no other: 1. They use lasers to fill your cavities. That means no more drills. Ever. 2. I HATED getting dental work before Dr. Latha. She and her staff went above and beyond to find creative solutions to lessen my discomfort like no other dentist had ever tried. I finally wasn't miserable in that dentist chair anymore 3. Incredibly qualified - Dr. Latha is dedicated to continuing to learn the latest methods and increase insurance coverage for those new methods. She is never content to just do the same thing over and over. 4. The office assistant, Amy, always worked closely with me and my insurance provider to make sure I got the maximum coverage with the smallest effort. 5. Dr. Latha, her assistant Amy, and everyone else in the office are some of the warmest and sweetest people out there. They always ask about my daughter and follow up on any other recent life events. It feels like visiting family. read more

Covid protocols in place even now and I had no doubt that I was in safe hands at Dr.Latha's. Dr.Latha's dentistry skills are superlative and fine tuned ,I am usually not in discomfort after a procedure . Highly recommended Covid prepared office . read more

Dr. Latha has been my dentist for 18 years. She was as good with me as a child as she has been with me as an adult - I have NO fear of dentists because I've been in her safe hands from the start. Across all dental issues, from cavities, to anxiety induced grinding and wine/coffee stains, her team has always been incredibly professional. The highlight of my experience with her, though, has to be the time she helped my procrastinating bum out by going into office during the COVID shelter-in-place to get a print of an invoice that was 15 months old - so I could meet an FSA submission deadline. That's so far and above what you can expect, and I couldn't have appreciated it more. Go with Dr. Latha for a healthcare professional who truly cares. read more

I did not have a good experience with Latha Subramanian, DDS. Her bedside manner was unpleasant. She made it seem like a favor when answering any questions. She was condescending to the point where I felt uncomfortable coming into her office. Her procedural skills were subpar, her tools old. Her drill was incredibly loud compared to other offices. Her cavity filling was much longer and painful than other dentist I have been to. Recovery time was much longer and I am still feeling pain after her procedure. Her office is old and not as clean as you would like from a dental office. It is difficult to get a hold of anyone at the office as her dental assistant is also her front desk receptionist. Her prices are also significanlty higher than other dentists. Please do your research before committing to a procedure with her. Her treatment plan also consisted of far more work than the second opinion I recieved. After my visit with her, I do not trust her skills nor her decision making. I initially picked her from all the positive reviews, however I learned first hand that she was not the right fit. read more

I've been a client of Dr Latha's for many years and she is an excellent dentist. She is caring and prides herself in her pain free dentistry. I highly recommend her. read more

Best experiences every time I go in! I go every 3 months to have my teeth cleaned and checked. read more

I retract my influential review. The focus is not on provided Excellent dentistry! The focus is on how to charge the maximum for the most basic to complex dentistry. The staff Amy is no longer there, "cause she did not get the billing charges" Latha Subramanian. My adult daughter sad, she felt pressure by the dentist on her visits. She went to car a cried. She got her teeth checked and cleaned every 6 months although she was pressured to get her teeth clean every three months as regular treatment. How could her have a "whole" in her tooth caused by the cavity. Cost of pain and emergency attention, $900.00. My other adult daughter had complex dentistry due to braces. She made her feel so bad that she left in tears. Repeated not provided planned service as she waited In the lobby! Stating that she needed to have a total mouth of veneers at the age of 27. At the cost of "a small car" end quote. And other issues with my personal care. Needless to say we left her service. Going to our new dentist my daughter received the treatment needed in two appointments. At the cost of NOT A SMALL Car, and she has ALL of her teeth that are restored at the cost of a responsible ethical service and professional dentist. read more

I feel that this office is very focused on sales, sales, sales and scaring people into a lot of expensive procedures. The office is fine for a cleaning, they did a good job. But they will fine all the faults they can to create a lot of charges. If you like a lot of procedures then you will like this office, otherwise, I would stay away. Dr likes to talk more than listen. read more

There are dentists who have a knack for finding teeth that need work.. There are dentists who can't wait to get you out to maximize their returns.. And then there are dentists (much fewer) who genuinely care about your well being. Dr. Latha and Maria belong to the third category. I had gone to them a couple of years ago when I had a serious problem with my gums. The two of them not only went about taking care of my dental issues but they made me realize what my role was in keeping my teeth and gums healthy. Their biggest accomplishment (even beyond bringing my teeth back to health) is getting me to floss daily!! read more

I have been sitting in dentist chairs since I was wee and fell victim to my sister's pratfalls (she tripped me from her walker, resulting in a terrible accident that caused me to have surgery as well as 10 years of orthodontics). So, I'm pretty comfortable around dentists, and can tell when someone is trying to press me into something I don't need. Dr. Latha is always very thorough when explaining to you all your options, the costs, and the importance of each -- she will tell you what you need now, what can wait, and any discounts she can offer. She is an EXCELLENT communicator and always will go into more detail about any procedures. Her work on me thus far has been great, and I have suggested her without hesitation when people ask me for a recommendation of a dentist that I like. When I recently had a daughter, she took time to explain to me what I should do for her as her teeth came in, and how she would work with her from a young age to ensure that she, like myself, is comfortable in a dentist chair. Amy, at her front desk, is possibly the nicest woman alive, and is ALWAYS incredibly helpful -- even when trying to slough through annoying insurance mazes. The office is email-capable, meaning that you can make, confirm, and cancel appointments without ever having to talk to someone. That's great, for a technojunkie like myself! :D read more

I've been doing to Dr. Latha's for a little less than a year now and just had my first real procedure done today. I've been meaning to write a review earlier but never got to it. First of all being in the medical field I know how things can be behind scenes. If you need a break-down of all the pluses, here they are: 1. Very courteous and professional staff AND I mean VERY VERY!!! 2. Sensitive to your needs and tries to help you ASAP. 3. Very precise and thorough when explaining treatment plans and treatments. 4. Care is top of the line, meaning I didn't feel the shots at all and the dental hygienist are on top of everything. Overall I think this is a great practice and would/will refer anyone who needs a dentist to go here! read more

I have never given a one star review, but I have to for this dentist. I want to make sure people are aware of what they are getting into if they want to bring their children here. I was trying to find a kid friendly dentist in Mountain View and decided to bring my kids here after reading all the good reviews on Yelp. Although Dr. Latha's staff is very nice to children, Dr. Latha herself is not. She does not say appropriate things to children and is very condescending to adults. It is clear that she does not really like to work with kids and that she quite full of herself. I am having trouble understanding why she has so many good reviews. read more

Being new to the area I did not have inside scoop as to where to go for my healthcare needs. I 1st found an amazing chiropractor (Vanderhoof Chiropractic) but when my tooth started to hurt I asked his office who they would suggest. The doctor and the staff took such great care of me when I went in for my checkup. Going to the dentist usually isn't fun, but they make you feel as comfortable as you could be at the dentist. The doctor was very knowledgeable and thorough with my checkup. Explaining every step of the way, what was going to happen and what she was doing. The equipment in the office is high tech and they seem to be very up to date on procedures. I would definitely recommend going to them for all your dentist needs. I am so lucky to have both of these highly competent and caring professionals taking care of me read more

I called Dr. Latha's office for a last mtinute cleaning before my wedding. They were nice and fit me in that afternoon. From the huge questionaire, it was clear that they specialize in dealing with people who don't like going to the dentist. They work hard to put you at ease. When I met Dr. Latha, she offered me a discount on having my teeth whitened that day. I didn't appreciate the sales pitch. The cleaning was good and thorough. The office is very aggressive with its mailings. I got several reminder postcards, a holiday card, and I think a birthdya card with a personal note about my pets. It was nice that they personalized it, but I don't have any pets. I never went back because I moved to a different city. read more

I have been going to Dr. Latha for the past couple years and I must say, she has done beautiful work with my teeth. She has a unique sense of humor and makes me feel like I just saw her the week before--old friends catching up. She is professional, very upfront and honest about the condition of my teeth and has only made me feel as comfortable as humanly possible every time. I believe she has rid me of my irrational fear of the dentist. Big props on that one! Amy, her receptionist is exceptionally pleasant and courteous and Roxy, one of the hygienists is such a sweetheart and extremely thorough. So glad I found this dentist! It's a nice place to go if you're looking for a green practice and an office that doesn't make you feel far from home. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Latha for about a year and I'm very happy with the treatments/services I've received from her and her staff. She's highly skilled in her craft and she keeps up with the latest technological advances in dentistry. What impressed me even more is how careful she is in recommending treatments. When an old crowns of mine failed, I was told by 2 different dentists that I needed a root canal. Dr Latha was able to save my tooth from a root canal with extensive repairs and a new crown. Although her charges may be higher ($250 Laser Treatment Fee not covered by insurance), the results she delivers are worth every penny. read more

I've been going to Dr Latha for over 10 years and the quality of service is outstanding! Her staff are so friendly and helpful. I feel very confident trusting her with all my dental needs. read more

Been going to Dr Latha for years. Always a wonderful experience. She is up to date with the latest tech --- no numbing or drilling as she uses a laser. How cool is that? Also if I need more work than a filling it's done the same day, Dr. Latha did a crown for me with just one appointment, no temporary crown. Armida her assistant is so fast and right there to answer any question I have about my appointment. Amy gives me all of my insurance estimates before the appointment and has even had my exact payment amount from delta before I leave. She also is great at remembering my preferred appointment times. Grace cleans my teeth and they have never felt cleaner. All in all a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone! She also is great with my little one who won't sit still for anything. read more

A very pleasant experience from the time you first call to make an appointment! The receptionist, Amy, is friendly and knowledgable. I was met with a big smile when I walked into the office for the first time and was given a tour of the office. The rest of the staff is wonderful as well. Roxy, the hygienist, is very nice and is highly skilled at her job!! This brings me to Dr. Latha herself. She has a calming personality that just made me fell very at ease. After the initial exam and cleaning, she explained to me what I need to have done and exactly what that will entail. I feel very comfortable knowing that my dental health is in the capable hands of Dr. Latha and her staff. Please don't review this business if you received a freebie for writing this review, or if you're connected in any way to the owner or employees. read more

Love Dr. Subramanian! She's so kind and gentle. And her office is really great with text notifications, and virtual check-in.

I went to Dr Latha for the first time with severe pain in my gums. I had called in late the previous evening and due to my condition they had accommodated me in their tight schedule. Dr Latha came across as a very friendly and sociable person. She clearly explained my condition to me and what she was going to do to treat it. She also took my insurance information and clarified my coverage and out of pocket expenses prior to starting my treatment. She took great care of me, kept a very close watch on my cavities all through my pregnancy and made sure that they did not worsen! I am now taking my baby son to her and would do so in the future too. A special mention of her receptionist/insurance coordinator Amy who is very polite and v helpful in co-ordinating Referrals. Kudos to Dr Latha for her commitment, friendliness and great staff. I would highly recommend her to anyone!! read more

Dr. Latha and her assistant Armida are both amazing. They have a great sense of humor and it's easy to tell they are both very passionate about dentistry. read more

Our family has been coming here for dental services 6-7 years. We are always happy and satisfied with the service. My most recent visit was an extremely exceptional. Dr. Latha is more than happy to spend an extra time to make my teeth look exactly the way I want. Dr. Latha is very friendly to talk to and she is very good with children. The office is cute with Dr. Latha's art works; those are amazing. I enjoy looking at them while I am waiting for my appointment. I am highly recommended Dr. Latha for anyone that is looking for a new and professional dental office. read more

What's up with depleting the maximum insurance amounts whether you really need a treatment or not?. She said "oh we have this medicated cleaner that you son could use" and asking my child "we have 5 flavors which one do you like?" kind of giving an idea she is offering it for free, then the front desk says "that will be $20", I did have a choice to give the toothpaste back, but out of embarrassment ended up paying, I believe they knew this trick. read more

I took my 4.5 year old son here today. First off, I have to say that Amy the receptionist/assistant is very nice. The dentist, Latha comes across OVERLY friendly and it is so fake. She is proof there is no connection with education or credentials as far as customer service and 'bedside manner' is concerned. I would not trust her to do any work on my son. I brought my son to her for a cleaning and to get a cavity taken care of, which was clearly explained before the appointment. The receptionist even reiterated once my son was in the chair that she, the dentist, would clean his teeth. He has a cavity between his front teeth which causes him no pain, no discomfort, nothing. Instead of trying to solve the problem, she just berated me in from of my son. "Why didn't you bring him in sooner?" "Do you know what dental pain is like?" "Have you ever had tooth pain?" Seriously? I had to explain to her that regardless of me being a horrible parent, we are here to address his teeth. "We'll have to take x-rays." Right, that's why were are here.... I asked if she was going to clean his teeth. She said that she thought we were just there for a 2nd opinion. Then she walked out of the room. What a disconnect. The dentist is basically a smart-ass and knows absolutely nothing about good business practices one of which is being empathetic with her clients and patients as well as being respectful to her customers. We ended up leaving and not doing anything as it was such a negative experience with her. I paid $75 for a brilliant opinion and consultation! What waste of time! I would not trust her nor would I recommend her to anyone. read more

Since my first appointment at the beginning of the year, Dr. Latha and her team keep blowing away my expectations Her attention to detail along with an incredibly soft touch makes the entire experience comforting and pain free. After my last appointment both her and her team called me to make sure everything was going well and if there was anything I needed. Simply incredible work! read more

Stay away from this place. When you visit they speak really sweet, and you wont find anything wrong until you start treatment. I had following bad experiences. 1. My daughter had tooth filling done here, and it came off by the time we reach home. We needed multiple visits to get it fixed. After her first bad experience with dentist she is really scared of any dental treatment. 2. My wife same experience for her dental treatment for filling and crown. And needed multiple visit to get it fixed. 3. When I changed dentist after she started suggesting all super expensive treatments, I realized those were not necessary, at least new dentist says so. 4. I am not going here for almost last one year, still I keep getting bills dated as recent as last 3 months. So I send email to check whats happening, but no one replies and I keep getting new bills. read more

I just had my first visit today and I only have good things to say about it! They were extremely thorough for a first visit, it included a cleaning and exam. I met most of the staff at one point during the visit and they were very nice...one even brought me a heat pillow for my neck during the cleaning! I could have fallen asleep if I had tried :) I've never experienced such an organized dental visit. They explained my treatment plan and presented a print out describing every single thing that is going to happen to my teeth. I loved that. I plan to stick w/Dr. Latha for a very long time and would recommend her to all! read more

I started gong to Dr Latha some years back after not going to the dentist for a few years. .. I had some extensive dental work that needed to be done and Dr Latha is wonderful! I mean wonderful.. She is very caring, funny and really makes you feels relaxed. She has done all my dental work now for years and I'm always referring people to her.. Recently my dental phonic son was having some pain due to wisdom teeth and she was very good about calming him down and working with such an anxious patient.. He really likes her, and he's a tough critic. Dr Latha , love you and your staff!! read more
