Updating with an added star…read more After my original review, the crown Dr. Winger placed came off. I went back in and he recemented it at no charge, which was the right call since it was his work. I appreciate that. I want other patients to know how that visit went, because the response above leaves it out. Before he treated my tooth, Dr. Winger said we needed to address the elephant in the room. He told me I'd made harsh comments about employees and that some of them were uncomfortable working with me because they were afraid of ending up in a review. I pointed out on the spot that my original review named two employees positively and only raised concerns about one -- it wasn't a broad complaint about the staff, and that distinction wasn't acknowledged. This conversation happened chairside, while I was sitting there needing care, with no warning. In my opinion, that's a conversation you have after treatment, not before. I would gladly have paid full price for the recement to skip it. In the moment, it felt like the conversation was the price of care. He also said, in substance, that his employees need to feel safe in the office. What he described was staff worried something they said might end up in a review. In my opinion that isn't feeling unsafe -- it's not wanting to be reviewed. If staff conduct themselves professionally, there's nothing to fear from a review. To be fair: Tammy did later send a written apology by email, and the payment plan was ultimately honored after she escalated it. I want to acknowledge that. But across multiple visits, the tone of that written apology has not matched how I've been spoken to in person, and that pattern is what was never addressed -- not in the email, not in the meeting, not in the response above. Dr. Winger asked that I bring concerns to him first rather than post publicly. Between my original review and this visit, there was no call, no email, no attempt to reach out. The first time it came up was chairside, before he treated me. Public reviews exist so other patients can decide for themselves. Dr. Winger's clinical work is genuinely good and I've said that from the start. My concerns are about the front office, and about a response that vouches for character without addressing conduct.

I walked into Everlast Dental with a heart full of fear and a mouth full of pain. Years of…read morechildhood trauma had left me terrified of dental visits, and an autoimmune disease had ravaged my teeth, leaving them discolored, broken, and with nerves exposed. I had avoided the dentist for as long as possible, but when the pain became unbearable, I knew I had to face my fears. From the moment I stepped into Everlast Dental in Citrus Heights, I was met with compassion and understanding. The staff listened to my anxieties and took the time to understand my past traumas. They worked with me at my pace, ensuring I felt safe and supported every step of the way. Dr. Nha-An Nguyen and her team were nothing short of extraordinary. Liana, my RDA held my hand, offered breaks when needed, and used calming techniques like essential oils and weighted blankets to help me relax. Each visit was tailored to my comfort, and over several weeks, we addressed the damage to my teeth. As of May 23, 2025, I now have a beautiful set of porcelain veneers, handpicked to create a smile that reflects my true self. Dr. Nguyen's attention to detail has given me not just a new smile, but a renewed sense of confidence. I can finally smile freely in photos with my son, something I never thought possible. Even though I still experience some anxiety before each visit, the team at Everlast Dental has never given up on me. They have been patient, kind, and unwavering in their support. I now look forward to my dental appointments, knowing that I am in the hands of professionals who truly care. If you're like me, terrified of the dentist, I want you to know that you're not alone. Everlast Dental is a place where fear is met with empathy, and healing is possible. You can do it, and you deserve to feel good about your smile. Thank you, Everlast Dental, for changing my life. also, shout out to Krystal at the front desk, who cried as hard as I did when she saw my new teeth for the first time. They changed my views of the dentist, and they changed the way I feel about myself. - Breana W.

I needed to find a new dentist because I had just moved to the area and found Everlast Dental. I…read morefound the office to be very clean and pleasant. But when the dentist examined my teeth and told me I needed about $10,000 worth of dental work, I was in shock. She wanted to replace many of my crowns. I had been going to the dentist at 6-month intervals for over 30 years and never had any of them tell me that my teeth had any problems at all other than an occasional cavity, and it had probably been over 10 years since I'd even had one of those. I've been brushing 3 times daily and flossing once a day for many years. And I had no pain or dental problems in years. Dr. Nguyen told me that my insurance wouldn't cover much of it but there was financing available. She told me to make an appointment on the way out, which I most certainly did NOT do. The next day I called the last dentist I'd seen six months earlier (before moving), who'd been my dentist for the previous 13 years. I told him about my experience with Dr. Nguyen and, asked what his opinion would be, based on my last appointment with him 6 months earlier. He said the only way he would agree with Dr. Nguyen would be if I was leaving for Africa the next day and would be in an area where there would be no access to a dentist for the next ten years. He said my crowns would wear out, and one was close to doing so, but if I was seeing a dentist every six months there was absolutely no reason to replace them all now. They could be replaced as needed. That was all I needed to hear. I found a different dentist who essentially told me the same thing, and over a year later I still have all the same crowns without a single problem. Ever get the feeling that someone's giving you a quote for something while thinking about how they're going to pay for their extravagant vacation? Yeah, me too. My only regret is that I really liked the hygienist who had cleaned my teeth there. If she reads this, I'd like her to know that she had nothing to do with my dissatisfaction there.

Luckily, on the day of the extraction, my face was swollen from the infection and they wouldn't do anything until the swelling went down. By that night, I was in so much pain I ended up in the hospital where I was kept for three days fighting off a facial cellulitis infection. While in the hospital, I learned that the infection was NOT in the tooth that Citrus Heights Dental had targeted for extraction. It was actually the tooth NEXT TO the tooth they planned to pull! Thank God for that infection. It was a horrible experience, but at least I didn't lose a perfectly healthy tooth! I never went back to that place and I never will. My advice: get a second opinion and save your precious teeth. You're welcome, in advance. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I would give this place a 4.5 stars out of 5 stars. It was clear that place a premium on helping their clients. PART 2: CAN IMPROVE - I would have given 5, however the dental hygienist who came to floss my teeth simply did not know how to floss. No getting the string in between the teeth and moving up and down each adjacent tooth. At times, she skipped teeth; at others, she got the floss in between and did one side but rather than lift the string up, she cut across to the adjacent tooth hitting the gum, which I didn't appreciate. If she observes other hygienists and practiced on even herself or the staff, she would better understand how to floss.

She double checked and reassured me they could still see me, which I really appreciated. Check in was quick and painless, and I was called back within minutes. The dental assistant was super friendly and threw some compliments my way.... flattery will get you everywhere, ma'am. And then Dr. Quang gave me the ultimate boost: he complimented my teeth and how straight they are and was shocked that I never had braces. That's like winning the dental lottery! Cleaning was quick and smooth, and I was booked for my next appointment six months out. Which I will remember, thanks to their handy reminder texts and calls.
