I am a 75 year old male who suffered with crooked teeth. As I understand it, my situation was a…read morebit complex, it wasn't just a matter of the teeth being crooked. I've consulted about this problem with several dentists and specialists over the years. In addition to crooked teeth, the left potion of my upper jaw was not symmetrical to the right side. This further complicated the problem. Initially, Dr Rezaei, was not overly optimistic about my situation. But, most importantly, she did not give up. Several days after my initial visit, she called to say that she and her lab may have come up with a solution and she asked that I return to the office to discuss. In addition to the problems noted above, I had one front tooth that projected out at an extreme angle beyond the surrounding teeth. This was a real challenge to correct, but Dr Rezaei explained that she and the lab had developed a solution to this. I'm not a dentist, so I don't fully understand how this was handled, but I believe it had something to do with how that particular tooth was prepared for its crown and the way that the laboratory custom made the crown, itself. I've had the good fortune to have had several very fine dentists in the past. However, without doubt, I would choose Dr Rezaei over any past dentist. She is meticulous in her work. In one of our longer sessions, I was in the chair for several hours. I was expecting that, at the very least, I would experience some discomfort, but Dr Rezaei's technique is so gentle and reassuring that I experienced no discomfort or pain at all. For the first time in my life, I now have straight-looking teeth and a great smile. My family is amazed how good the teeth look. However, there was also another benefit to Dr Rezaei's quality work. Several days after the work was completed, I noticed that for some reason, I was feeling better. The tooth that projected out beyond the surrounding teeth, had been mauling the left inside area of my mouth for years. In fact, there is a scar where that tooth hit the inside of my mouth. Dr Rezaei's procedure has not only left me with a great smile, but it also ensured that this tooth would no longer strike the inside of my mouth! The entire staff of Chico Modern Dentistry is extremely friendly and greet me by name. I've watched them dealing with other patients and it's obvious that their friendly attitude is well ingrained and goes a long way to making patients feel at ease for a visit most people rather not make. I will be forever thankful for Dr Rezaei's quality work and collaboration with her lab. I'm certain that without her personal involvement, I would not have a great smile today. Without hesitation, I would recommend Chico Modern Dentistry and Dr. Rezaei to anyone needing routine or cosmetic dental work. Lastly, I also want to thank Modern Dentistry's laboratory for the fine work they did to provide me with a great smile!

If I could give this place negative stars, I would. I had an…read moreaccident on Christmas night that resulted on 2 intruded and broken front teeth (root broken but only one had chipped on the end) and a slightly chipped side tooth, I could not get immediate treatment from a dentist (as it was a holiday) so I scheduled a visit for the next morning, since urgency is crucial in these situations in order to be able to move the teeth back in place and needs to be done as soon as possible. I came in for an appointment with Dr. Sanjay the very next morning, spent about 40 minutes at the front desk trying to get the hospital documentation necessary for them to see me since it was a trauma situation, I finally got the documentation I needed, but Dr. Sanjay said he would only see me the next morning (they were closing in about an hour), completely aware of the urgency of the situation and acting like he was annoyed by the "inconvenience" of me being there and expecting to be seen (when I had made an appointment). I get that no one likes to work on holidays, but I also didn't like having to be there on a holiday. I come in the next day and not only my face has gotten very swollen, but I am in physical pain and emotional distress from the trauma. Dr. Sanjay finally sees me and he might just be the worst dentist I have ever seen, I cried the whole time I was sat on that chair, not from sadness but from ACTUAL PHYSICAL PAIN. Not only did he apply the local anestesia multiple times by pretty much just stabbing my gums over and over, but he would proceed to work on my teeth even when I would tell him it was hurting me, completely disregarding my pain (and I mean pain, not discomfort). He pulls my intruded teeth with one of his hands holding my face back and the other holding my teeth, that was after I had told him the anestesia had not yet numbed my mouth, it was one of the most painful moments I have ever been through. Not satisfied with his damn near torture approach, he proceeded to tell me I was "too emotional" because I was crying and said it was because my face was swollen that it was hurting, not because of him. He starts the treatment and another guy makes a temporary crown for both of my front teeth (since Dr. Sanjay filed them both down, even the one that had only snapped in the top of the root but had no other cracks/chips and looked ENTIRE on both x-rays and hospital exams) and sends me home with my teeth STILL INTRUDED, a chipped tooth with absolutely no repair and a front teeth temporary crown that did not fit into my bite, so it was constantly hitting my lower teeth causing me pain and making it impossible for my top teeth to HEAL once it kept getting hit and pushed out by the lower ones. They schedule me for 3 weeks after that day to get my root canal and permanent crowns. They expected me to have tooth pain, a chipped tooth and a misplaced crown for 3 weeks before doing anything else, aside from also not even fixing my teeth position (like, excuse me???????). I was going to be charged over $10k for that (lol) The very next day I found another place and got seen, they did my root canal the day after, were able to place my teeth correctly back into place and I didn't have to cry from the pain once (my face still being swollen and more bruised now than before), the doctor only had to apply the anestesia once because he actually knew what he was doing and they sent me home with a new temporary crown that actually fit my bite and did not cause me any discomfort and, more importantly, pain. I already have my permanent ones and I couldn't be more glad that I chose not to continue my treatment in this place. Hot take is I would rather knock my teeth out all over again then ever coming back to this place and seeing this AWFUL doctor.

Long story short, I went back to Dr. Abbott and he performed a corrective root canal and he didn't even charge me! When I call to make an appointment Kerri is very knowledgeable and friendly.

I searched for highly rated dentist in Chico and found Dr. Gary Johnson's office. My experience was…read moreexcellent. I had a failing crown that was only four years old and I was concerned about the decay that was developing near the exposed root. I sought an opinion from my former dental provider, as they were responsible for the decay due to poor workmanship. They denied the obvious decay, so my trust in them was broken. A few days later, Dr. Johnson evaluated the same tooth and he found significant decay beneath the crown and recommended replacing it. He took the time to explain the problem clearly and he answered all of my questions. The crown replacement went smoothly, and I was relieved to learn that the tooth could be saved without needing a root canal. I am 56 years old and still have all of my natural teeth, so preserving this tooth was very important to me. I truly believe Dr. Johnson's treatment helped prevent further damage and tooth loss. The quality of care, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding. I also appreciate that the office provides a five-year warranty on crowns. I would highly recommend Dr. Gary Johnson and his team to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy dentist in Chico.

IF YOU ARE A PATIENT AT YELLOWSTONE DENTISTRY I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU SEEK CARE SOMEWHERE ELSE…read moreAND IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING BECOMING A NEW PAITENT WITH THIS DENTAL OFFICE, DON'T! I have had 6 month cleanings and checks up regularly with another office and had NEVER had any sort of dental problems, no pain, and no cavities. At my first dental visit in December 2024 they told me that I had a cavity. I was in complete shock but went ahead and had them fill it. It was tooth #18. This will be important later. I returned for a 6 month cleaning in June and then my most recent appointment December 29, 2025. At this appointment Dr. Lim looked at my x-rays and told me I had 3 cavities. He never once sat down and looked in my mouth or pointed out which teeth had cavities. I left in disbelief but later called to schedule the appointment to have the cavities filled and requested an oral sedative to take prior to my visit. It's simply an anxiety medication. I also had to pay my co-pay prior to my visit. Upon arrival to this appointment, I started questioning which teeth needed fillings and explaining to the gal who brought me to the chair that none of this was explained to me at my prior visit. She pointed out that #30, #14, and #18 needed fillings. Weird that #18 needed a filling, right? After about 10 minutes the gal and the dentist would no longer answer my questions, due to the fact that I "was on a sedative" and would not speak to my husband either. Let's face it, people take anxiety medications regularly all the time and can function and understand just fine. At this point the dentist decided that my appointment should be rescheduled and made it seem as if I was the one who was confused. Not in the slightest but thankful that this decision was made. I returned home and called another dental office to get a second opinion. I purposely did not tell this dentist what I was previously told, so that I could get a fair opinion. This dentist looked at my x-rays provided by Yellowstone and also looked in my mouth and poked every tooth. He confirmed that I had no cavities and that I had great oral hygiene. I called Yellowstone after leaving my second opinion appointment and requested a refund of my co-payment. I was told that they would call me back but of course they didn't. I've several more times but no one answers the phone. Still wondering if the "cavity" I had on my first visit in 2024 with Yellowstone was actually a cavity.
