They always have a good visit, the texting confirmation thing is awesome and really helps me keep track. The office staff is helpful and friendly, both on the phone and in person. Thanks to Yelp for helping me find this place, I'm lucky I didn't have to search!

I appreciate the systematic kids focused dentist experience here. We have been going here since my…read moredaughter turned 2. The check in process is simple and they have you sign any necessary forms as you arrive. Any payment is taken care of at the end. Reception staff are always kind and attentive. Most forms that I need to sign are prefilled with my daughters name and the date. In the waiting room, there is a play area for kids with books, legos, a play kitchen, and hand sanitizer is available too. They have one tv in the front that plays a movie, and that movie continues in the back when they take the kids back. We have never waited long and are usually called back pretty quickly. The dental hygienists and RDAs are all very friendly. They all have kind personalities and it definitely feels like they were called to work with kiddos. The first couple of visits, as our daughter was getting used to the idea of a dentist visit, they allowed her to sit in my lap and tilted her back to check out her teeth. (I also have caught on that as she ages, there is one thing they add to the appointments each time. They kind of just brushed her teeth and felt her teeth at age 2/2.5-they they did an x-ray at 3 but only of certain angles, then they added the scraping tool, and did x-rays of more angles. I think that helps kids adapt to the dentist and also doesn't throw everything at once.) 1.5 years and a few visits later, she lays on the table and watches the movie while they work. She enjoys using the sunglasses offered for the bright light! There is also a train table in the back, and in between the DH/RDA visit and the Dentists visit they let the kids go play if they want. We usually only get about 5-8 minutes with the dentist, but this is not unlike any other dentist office. We have seen Dr. Kunkel and Dr. Addie, and we thought both were great and offered good suggestions and encouragement. They have also been clear about treatment plans, if any, and answer all of our questions. Reason for loss of star: I will say, the only thing that may not be enjoyed by some families, is lack of privacy in the main treatment area. The treatment tables are side by side 4 on each side, in an open space. I think the most patients at one time that I have seen are 6. This configuration definitely helps kids understand the visit process, they can see other kids having their cleanings and maybe younger ones catch on that "it's not that bad". But then if a kid is upset, the rest that are present hear and see that too. Additionally, the lack of privacy has lead to our family hearing what is going on with another kiddos teeth and the treatment they have to go through, when really you would think due to HIPPA, that would/should be a more private conversation. For me, and our family, we don't mind...yet. I also know they do have private rooms too- but I'm unsure what those are used for/we have never been offered that as an option for cleanings. So maybe if privacy is a concern for you and your family, ask about options for private space? With that we would still recommend!

Can't seem to locate a separate listing for the Fig Garden location, so I'll add our review here…read more We really felt at ease with Dr Vu and the staff, from the front desk ladies to the hygienists. Everyone was easy going, warm, and kind. After moving here not too long ago and searching for a dentist that fit our schedule and needs I'm so happy to find this office. Yesterday was my sons first visit and today we were able to get in for treatment since he needed an extraction. The treatment was fast with no pain or downtime. He has a few more visits to go and he'll be in tip top shape and I'm looking forward to that. Thank you to all the staff there for getting us in so quickly and being nice people.

He's actually the one that noticed my son's teeth grinding at night so we were able to take the necessary steps at the ENT dept. to set an appt for what we have to do next. I like that he gets to lay down and watch a movie while he's getting treated. They have tv on the ceilings. And the waiting room has a kitchen toy area on one side and a Lego table on he other side. And after certain visits they give him toothbrush and toothpaste and a toy. And I love how they recognize the kids with no cavities and have them put their names on the wall. It makes him proud lol

Updating my review from a year ago! So my daughter is now 3yo and no longer cries when we see Dr…read more Davis! She enjoys going to the dentist. Today I took my son. He just turned one a few months ago and this was his first dental appointment. Per usual I got a text message reminding me to schedule an appointment for my daughter. I called the office and scheduled an appointment for her and asked if I can include my son. They took his info down and scheduled an appointment same day and time for both kids. When we arrived we were greeted at the front and I signed some forms and we sat down in the waiting area. No more than 10mins later they called us back. They took dental X-rays for my daughter and they both had 2 chairs side by side ready and cleaned. The RDA were all so nice and gentle with my kids and gave my toddler an option to choose what type of polish flavor. Once Dr.Davis got around to seeing us he was professional, kind, knowledgeable, he's great with the kids and he still sings lol He took the time to explain and gave all the rational behind his recommendations. They had balloons today! My kids made it to the No Cavities Wall. This where they can write their name on a paper they provide and stick it on the wall. They also give tokens so that the kids can get a prize at the end. When we got to the prizes my daughter usually gets a ball but today they didn't have any and she said it out loud and one of the staff members heard and came to us with 3 of them in his hand and offered it to her. Such a kind and generous gesture. We were in and out of our appointment all within 20mins!!! I truly enjoy taking my kids here. Staff is friendly, they do an amazing job with the kids. Dr.Davis is wonderful! Love that they work fast too, as a mother of two who takes my kids to their appointments alone it's always nice to be in and out because managing 2 kids alone can be a bit much. This place really caters to the kids they have different play areas for the kids as well. Highly recommended!

We deny fluoride every time due to an allergic reaction of my child feeling very itchy. The last cleaning the technician applied it anyways even though the chart and forms said it was denied. I brought it up at yesterday's appointment as well which they confirmed they did put fluoride on her the past appointment without my consent. I told them again we do not want it we deny it, I watched my son for his cleaning and went to check on my daughter in the middle of them applying fluoride on her AGAIN WITHOUT CONSENT. Thank God the allergy has not worsened for it to have ended up in a trip to the hospital but if you choose to go here watch every move if you deny something. I will say the front desk staff is very nice and the actual dentist is knowledgeable but I wouldn't come here if there's any sort of allergy you're worried about.

EVERY SINGLE CAP THEY HAVE PUT ON MY SONS CAVITIES HAS FALLEN OUT AT LEAST ONCE!!! one of them twice! Now I know it happens but come on. On top of that you have to wait months to get an appointment. The appts he's had for other work have been pushed back to fix the caps that continue to fall out. It's to the point I took him to another dentist who sent us to a specialist who now say the tooth may need to be removed!? Their whole thing was that he needed these teeth capped because it's the last teeth he will lose and now they are needing to be pulled anyways because the caps keep falling off the tooth is exposed and compromised and it takes months to get in to have it fixed. Never been more upset. And we brush and floss twice a day and he's not eating sticky foods either. So saddened and disappointed. Also my other son had a minor cavity they just needed to fill but we had to wait 6 months for an appointment and despite brushing and flossing the tooth got worse and now needs to be removed. SMH I know this isn't everyone's experience and I really did love the office and staff but I just feel like something isn't right here.

I've reported this office to the Dental Board of California and the BBB and I highly suggest anyone…read moreelse with a billing complaint do the same thing--and, judging by the negative reviews, there are quite a few. Are the dentists and hygienists amazing? Absolutely. Unfortunately, the billing department is horrendous, deceptive, dishonest, and all-around appalling. Like others have said, they lied and tricked me into authorizing services based on a small dollar amount they promised I would owe, which was vastly incorrect. Each conversation I had with staff following the incorrect billing amount resulted in inconsistent reasons, assuming I could get a response at all. I was a patient here for nearly 12 years and genuinely loved my dentist. When my insurance changed this year and they became out-of-network, I called billing on January 26th to confirm expenses for OON since paying a small fee might have been worth it to stay with my dentist. They took my insurance information and said they'd "run" it and call me back with a dollar amount. On January 29th, they called back and confirmed I would owe $0 for my exam and cleaning. I specifically reiterated this and they confirmed. At my February 11th appointment, when I found out I needed my 5-year x-rays, I told my hygienist I couldn't authorize them without knowing my cost given my OON status. She went to billing, returned with "$38" written on paper, and confirmed billing had verified it. I authorized solely based on that number. Then I received a bill for $254, which included fees for the cleaning, exam, and more than $38 for the x-rays. I immediately paid $38 online and left the remaining $216 unpaid. When I disputed it over the phone, Yesenia repeatedly said "services were rendered" and then claimed staff CANNOT give a dollar amount I'll owe and have NO way to do so. Yet they had. Twice. I explained this, and that I can't be held accountable for staff making mistakes, to which she explicitly repeated "services were rendered." I asked to speak with a manager who acknowledged the mistake, saying staff should never have given me a cost and that they can't, but that only my dentist could waive the balance. She promised a follow-up that never came. When I called back myself weeks later, a third staff member, Gabby, had no knowledge of my previous conversation and completely contradicted what the first two had told me. She stated that the staff had given me an "estimate" and it was my insurance's problem to resolve. (It isn't my insurance's problem. They covered 100% for my exam and cleaning and 80% for my x-rays. The problem is the billing department billed ABOVE that coverage limit and lied about what I would owe in order to get my money.) I told her that the manager a few weeks prior told me staff should NOT have given me a cost at all and that I was awaiting a bill adjustment decision. Gabby repeatedly responded with, "we gave you an estimate" and had no interest in listening or following up with the manager. As I was currently in the middle of a big life change, I couldn't afford to be sent to collections, and I paid the deceptive $216 I shouldn't have owed. I let Gabby know I'd be filing complaints. There is a very common thread in the 1-star reviews here and I beg people to listen. The billing department is filled with deception and a lack of empathy. Had they been honest from the start and told me that they couldn't give me a dollar amount, I'd have understood and canceled my appointment, as I can't afford extra medical expenses of that magnitude. I should never have trusted these people. PLEASE FILE YOUR COMPLAINTS WITH THE DENTAL BOARD.
