I've had all the treatments (fillings, root canal, a tooth implant, two emergency visits) after previous out-of-state care left me with deferred maintenance.

On top of which he allows (even encourages) his patients to seek out natural alternatives to some of the standard mouth chemicals on the market. I've been very happy with his work--and the fact that he takes care of insurance billing for me.

I've been coming here for 13 years now. Why?…read moreBecause of Deb! She's at the front desk and the best! I always feel welcome coming in, and well taken care of when I leave. She's been here since the beginning, and through the 4 doctors I've seen. Oh wait. I've known Deb the longest, but seriously, I keep coming back for all the other personnel I see. Kim is also very nice at the front, though I haven't built up as nice as a rapport with her yet. Stevie is also the best! Currently my doctor is Dr. Anderson and my hygienist is Stevie. Dr. Anderson is nice and straight forward, and explains things very well for me. I've mostly only had normal check ups and cleaning since I've been seeing her and haven't had any procedures done. But she is sure-fingered and confident, and I would be happy to get any treatment done with her. Well, I guess I won't be happy to get anything done with my teeth... Cleaning is like pulling teeth as it is. lol. Stevie is another reason I keep coming back here every 6 months. Despite her having only one day available out of a week! She's gentle and kind, but gets my teeth feeling polished. And so friendly. And so informative. I seriously have all my teeth related questions answered here without feeling like I'm asking for too much. Thanks for making my scary dentist visits pleasant, always!

Five stars simply aren't enough for Dr. Eslami and his incredible team…read more From my very first consultation through surgery and recovery, I felt genuinely cared for. Dr. Eslami is one of the kindest, most compassionate physicians I have ever met. His calm demeanor, patience, and genuine concern for his patients immediately put me at ease. He took the time to answer every question, never made me feel rushed, and treated me with such kindness that I always felt I was in the best hands. Dr. Eslami is also an exceptionally skilled periodontist. I originally expected gum grafting on two teeth, but during surgery he was able to successfully treat four teeth in addition to performing my frenectomy. His precision, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome far exceeded my expectations. The results have been nothing short of amazing. The before-and-after photos I attached were taken just one week apart, and I was blown away by the transformation in such a short time. Knowing that I'll continue to heal over the coming months makes me even more appreciative of Dr. Eslami's expertise. I also want to recognize Shauna, Sarah, and Aubrey, who made every visit a positive experience. They were warm, compassionate, reassuring, and genuinely fun to be around. Their kindness helped turn what could have been a stressful experience into one where I actually looked forward to my appointments. Thank you as well to David for helping coordinate my care throughout the process. It is rare to find a practice where exceptional clinical skill is matched by such genuine compassion. That culture clearly starts with Dr. Eslami and extends throughout his entire team. Thank you all for changing my smile and for taking such wonderful care of me. I am incredibly grateful and recommend Dr. Eslami and his team without hesitation. I need more periodontal treatment again, and I won't hesitate for a second to return to Dr. Eslami.

My last review of Modern Touch was 10 years ago, and I've been a client for about 15 years…read more I've seen a multitude of dentists at the office over the years as staff has changed, and the work has consistently been really well done. Cheryl, my hygienist, and Dr. McDonald and Ashley have been the most amazing team over the last year, in particular as I cracked two teeth as a result of extreme stress. They guided me through a very painful process and made sure my mouth feels and looks perfect at the conclusion of the work. The work performed is of high quality (as are the labs that they use - for crowns, implants, mouth guards). They have stayed on top of technology so imaging is easy, painless and comprehensive, including 3D digital models. They show the utmost care to their patients before, during and after procedures. The staff is friendly but still professional. The work above all else is thorough and exceedingly well executed. My husband has also had good experiences over the years (although he has needed less dental work, thankfully!) but as a family, we are beyond pleased. I couldn't recommend this dentist more highly. There are some cases when work is authorized by insurance at a certain expected amount, but the actual charges are different. I have never had an issue with this, as it's clearly explainable (the procedure had to go a different way, or the insurance covered something at a higher percent). The clinic "banks" any overpayment for us, and we use it for any charges we might accrue going forward. They have offered to reimburse us as well, but with a family that goes to the same dental clinic, keeping the overpayment there simplifies things for my purposes and I appreciate that they are willing to do that. Highly recommend the team at Modern Touch!

When she questioned her about it and tried to explain that she was wrong about the payment and offered to provide proof, she was rudely told she either had to pay what she was asked to pay or cancel her appointment. Then when asked if we could prove there was an error after the fact if we could get a refund, she rudely said "we could talk about." She ultimately ended up making my wife reschedule for TWO WEEKS later. I called to complain and talked to a different woman who was very understanding, professional, and patient. (despite my frustration) She correctly identified my insurance, walked me through what I should have been asked to pay, and rescheduled my wife for two days later. This first woman, who again, turned away my wife who was in pain for her appointment despite her having the correct insurance she claimed to have, was completely unreasonable and unprofessional. She extended the pain my wife was having in her tooth and embarrassed her in front of the other people who were in line behind her. If I were you and this lady was the receptionist I would wait until someone else was available and refuse to work with her. She no idea what she is doing and a miserable person to interact with.

The office and lobby *look* very nice. The receptionists that I have interacted with were mostly rude and unhelpful. This is the type of place that will find all possible ways to make money off you, whether it's necessary or not. The fake-nice Barbie doll dentist barely looked in my mouth during the "exam". My son who has only had a couple of fillings in 17 years, suddenly incurred 5 cavities since our last dental appointment 6 months ago??? Like a dummy, I went ahead and had the work done on 3 of his teeth. (I was charged $438 for 3 surfaces on cavities that were described as tiny. There was an issue with our insurance coverage, and I later found out they weren't covered. They quoted me around $120 copay which I paid at the time of service. Then several months later, we received a bill for over $1000. They did not even have the decency to mail me a bill. They emailed it to my minor child. What?!?! I called to request someone to review the situation & work with me, since I am a single mother and I cannot afford a dental bill like this. they mis-quoted me and their prices they charge are outrageous. I thought that they would try to work something out, based on the multiple errors made by their staff. No one called me back. I waited 10 days and called again. The woman who answered the phone, lied and told me that someone had already called me back. Nope! they did not. She also told me that they would not consider adjusting my bill at all. Horrible service!! Additionally, at my exam, the dentist had told me that I needed a crown and my co-pay would be over $1000. I had 2 crowns placed in the past two years (at another practice) each co-pay was $500-$600. That gives you an idea of how they will appoint the highest price materials and/or overcharge you. (I was never offered a less expensive type of crown when I balked at the price). I said I'm not going to do that right now, and they harassed me multiple times to make the appointment. I have since switched to a new Dentist. I made an appointment for them to quote me on the crown. Guess what, they told me that I do not need a crown on that tooth! However, I did have a cavity on another tooth, in which I had complained about sensitivity. There was clearly a cavity on the side of that tooth, which the LFD Dentist should have seen if she actually looked in my mouth. Nicole called me back. She was condescending and unapologetic and refused to even consider adjusting my bill. She did offer a 10% uninsured discount which brought the bill from $1100 to $1000. Really no help at all!!! This place is a total scam. I will be contacting the DSPS regarding my experience at this place!
