    Dr. Ghassemi has been my dentist for 15 years. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a professional, honest dentist.

I came in for my bi-annual teeth cleaning and as always, I looked forward to catching up with my favorite dental hygienist, Bertie!! She is always thorough with her cleaning where I walk out feeling like a million bucks! She has really thoughtful touches like gum massages after the cleaning since your mouth could be sore, warm towelette to wipe my face after the cleaning, and personal fans to keep you cool esp during the summer heatwave! She personalizes the experience so it never feels like I'm rushed out the door. I also cannot rave enough about Dr. Scalercio where I feel like I am always in good hands. I had a lot of dental work done this year and while it was stressful, Dr. Scalercio made me feel like I wasn't alone in the journey. She always lets me know that if I feel any discomfort at any point that she is willing to open up her schedule to accommodate. LOOK NO FURTHER IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN HONEST DENTAL PRACTICE! I selfishly want to gatekeep this place because scheduling could be challenging but it's worthwhile if you can grab a spot!

Despite being an Invisalign provider, after assessing my bite digitally and manually Dr. Fred found my repeating that expense was unnecessary which showed integrity. Dr. Fred is reachable when necessary and communication with his team is simple, effective and responsive. Each member of Smile Dentistry's team is caring, friendly and supportive of your dental health. Both the hygienist and Dr. Fred recommended personalized dental care tips. Dr. Fred's exam techniques and technology choices attest to his advanced education at UCSD and USC. He explains your film findings and treatment options in simple terms for sound and lasting results.  Having TMJ, Dr. Fred examined my bite with articulating paper using the same methods as my Oral, Head and Neck Pathologist several counties away. I could not find a local practitioner skilled in these techniques. Dr. Fred took time fixing my bite to prevent further fractures without my feeling like a nuisance or rushed. Dr. Fred's digitizer results in crowns with a superior fit compared to standard impressions. When outside referral was necessary to other specialities, Dr. Fred personally ensured I received treatment soon and his entrusted network is equally advanced in training, technology and conscientiousness. All were in-network with my insurance which is uncommon. His welcoming other specialties' opinions further increased my trust. Each provider called me after major treatment checking on my recovery and answering questions.  Dr. Fred and his team are kind, patient and considerate and the office is inviting. Pricing is reasonable without pushing unnecessary aesthetic treatments. Thank you Dr. Fred and San Diego Smile Dentistry for patiently and gracefully returning my dental health.

    There is no kinder or more capable Dentist in San Diego than Dr. Nick from True Design Dentistry…read more On Saturday afternoon, September 12, I hosted a three year-old birthday party that ended in shock and dismay. I tripped on a misplaced 3 foot metal fan and flew 5 feet through the air, damaging my upper lip and cutting my knee. My 4 front teeth all were damaged and one, a beautiful crown that Dr Nick had made for me before, fell out. I called Dr. Nick's emergency number and he did a FaceTime assessment that led to his driving a half hour from his home to reset my tooth. He created a brace to shore up the others and put five stitches in my lip all without pain. I saw him two weeks later for a happy checkup. In one month he will fix the chips that remain on my teeth and most likely remove the bridge that he had created for their stability. Dr. Nick at True Design Dentistry is simply absolutely wonderful. I have been to many dentists in my life and he is by far the very best. He redid several crowns for me and the work that he did was so far superior than the other dental work I had done it was just hard to believe. He gave me my smile back, and I have no doubt he will again!

    I write this review with a profound amount of gratitude. Your health is one of the most important…read morethings in your life that you must trust others with; and I'm thankful to say I could not be more happy with Dr. Aldo and the team at Bella Vita Dental. I see a lot of reviews talking about upselling and unnecessary treatment and I feel like I must say that whilst in my specific case this would not at all be relevant, it would take truly corrupt individual to do this to what is essentially a patient in a healthcare setting. I cannot in my wildest dreams see Dr. Aldo ever doing something like this - nor do I believe her to work in an environment in which this would ever take place. I stand firm in my belief that Bella Vita Dental is not capable of fostering this sort of behavior. The front desk staff were friendly and inviting and thorough with the answers to my questions, and Dr. Aldo and her team of dental assistants were kind, compassionate, and needless to say, all my issues were addressed and I am back to pain free. Whilst I do not look forward to the next time I have dental issues; I find comfort knowing I'm in great, compassionate hands with Dr. Aldo and all those at Bella Vita Dental.

    TL;DR: The billing service that Bella Vita employs filed 2 insurance claims with incorrect billing…read moreinformation, which were denied by my insurance, and are refusing to update that info and resubmit the claim (as recommended by my insurance) and are leaving me with an outstanding $1167 bill. I was a patient with Bella Vita for about 5 years until I moved away last October. I decided to start Invisalign with them in May 2025 and paid my quoted amount ($2411) in full the day treatment started. To my surprise, in April 2026 I received a call that my claim had been denied by my insurance but they would help me out and file another claim that would hopefully be approved by Delta Dental but if that claim was denied, they would file an appeal for me. I got a text on May 11, 2026 that I had an outstanding balance that amounted to ~50% ($1167) of what I originally paid at the start of my treatment so I called to ask what happened and Emily at the front desk told that they filed an appeal for my denied claim but couldn't answer any insurance or billing questions due to the fact that their billing department is not done "in house" so they would have to relay all my questions to a separate service. The office also refused to give me any contact information for their billing department so I'm forced to play telephone with the office and their billing department but also said they could not tell me why my claims had been denied. I was, however, told that my benefits for ortho had been maxed out. I called my insurance immediately after that initial call and they told me that, no, my claim was not denied due to my coverage being maxxed out (it has not been at that point) but because there were errors with the billing information on the claims that were submitted. The insurance rep also notified me that they had no appeal on file, so either there is some technical issue on the insurance side or the office lied about filing an appeal for that 2nd denied claim. The insurance rep told me it was an easy fix and that the office's billing department just need to update that billing info, resubmit, and it should be approved. From May until August of this year, I've called 6 times asking for updates and relaying the message that all they have to do is update their incorrect billing info and resubmit the claim and it should be approved. Everytime I call, I'm met with "The claim was already filed and denied twice so there's not much we can do, but we'll ask the billing department again." I've tried asking for the practice manager and have been told "she's not at her desk but she will call you later" and I never receive that call. All in all, be wary of this place. Since their billing is not done in house, no one at the office can answer specific billing questions and refuse to give contact info for that billing office so you're forced to play telephone with them and their billing department if you ever have an insurance issue.

I have had several cleanings and fillings here in the last 3.5 years and with every visit I lose a little more trust in this place. Multiple times have I sat down in the chair and had the dentist go "today we'll be working on the right side of your mouth" and I go "no you're not - it's the left side". Or "we'll be working on this tooth", and I go, "no it's this tooth". I also think that while Dr. Qadeer took his time to make me feel comfortable and to gain his trust, being gentle - the other dentist does not. At my most recent visit he was extremely rushed - bumped into my chair, dropped the camera, almost started working on the wrong side of my mouth. Not the level of professionalism I expect from Mesa Dental - and quite frankly I lost a lot of trust in their work. The assistant also kept forcing the suction down my throat, gagging me. Very rough and not very good. I will be reconsidering my future dental work, and looking for a different dentist.
