RDA Claudia is super friendly, knowledgeable and makes you feel really comfortable while getting your dental procedure done. Dr.Shah is great. He will answer any questions you have and he is very thorough, precise and quick in his work as he values your time. I would highly recommend Sky Dental!

​I have been coming here for 18 years, shortly after they opened, and the dentists know what they…read moreare doing 100%. I respect, appreciate, and actually enjoy my dental visits with Dr. Siamak Jafari. He is personable and has diagnosed things (such as stress grinding) that have made me feel seen and helped me pursue other types of holistic care. My kid recently transitioned from her long time pediatric dentist to Dr. Zara and has worked with Dr. Wong. My kid is a creature of consistency and loves warmth, so I hope they can develop a similar relationship over time. ​In my 18 years, I have experienced general, cosmetic, implant, endodontic, perio cleanings, and now family dentistry here. I have also benefited from some of their cutting edge tech during some of their trial periods. It is clear Dr. Jafari is a cosmetic dentist at heart, but I have watched him shift my care mid-appointment to prioritize overall health--even calling in specialists to confirm or address concerns. At the center of this cosmetic "smile guy" is someone who truly wants his patients to be whole and healthy in every way, and I cannot speak highly enough of that. ​Beyond the dentists, the hygienists, dental assistants, and back-office team do so much to make this practice special to me. To name just a few, I deeply appreciate Claudia, Debra, Maryanne, and so many others. There have been moments when personal life challenges impacted my health and finances--including once right before a follow-up appointment--and the staff simply allowed me space to tear up. People like Claudia and Dr. Jafari still check in on how I'm doing. The hygienists, including Alysha, Ivette, and my favorite Joycee, are always focused on education, care, and kindness. They will get your flossing into shape quick fast & in a hurry. Lol. While the clinical team and Dr. Jafari provide outstanding, compassionate care--which is why I've stayed for 18 years--the front desk and billing experience has noticeably declined. Over the past few years, especially since Desiree (front mgr?) left, the interaction feels more transactional than patient-centered. A few specific areas need improvement: ​Billing Before Care & Timing 1: Being asked to settle bills immediately before treatment--including being asked to pay again when a bill was already paid five days prior--wastes 15-20 minutes of appointment time and cuts into actual clinical care. Advance notice of costs or flexible payment options prior to the appointment day would make a significant difference. Billing Before Care & Timing 2: Previous trauma in my life has included financial abuse. Jafari has been understanding & Desiree would set up payment plans. Currently, the focus has changed. They seem to lack the flexibility & are seemingly desperate to collect prior to receiving procedures. ​Insurance Follow-Through: On multiple occasions, staff promised to check EOB discrepancies where insurance showed lower patient responsibility, but they never followed up. ​Excessive System Reminders: Text confirmations are overly frequent, continuing even after replying "C" to confirm (including Sunday am during church texts). ​I value Dr. Jafari and the back-office staff immensely for their dedication to patient health over profits. I completely understand that front staff are HARD WORKING & are doing their jobs. Addressing these front-office workflows would bring the administrative experience back up to the high standard set by the dental team.

They are also a bunch of very attractive ladies that do their jobs well to. Shirani's experience and expertise in the dental field is unmatched in my opinion, my family and I have been going to him for years and have never been left in pain. Over the past 10 yrs I have been to several dentist in the Antioch area, who have done to say the least mediocre work that Der. Shirani has corrected. Not only corrected but never ever throwing the other dentist under the bus. His other absolutely Gorgeous dentist, whom name evades me "sorry" is a tru- BOSS!!! She so sweet and gentle as Shirani, and always a pleasure to see and speak with. The manner in which the team is managed definitely reflects in how they treat us the patients . So thank you Dr.s.

I usually don't leave negative reviews but i was pretty disappointed with the way I was greeted on the phone by the receptionist when I needed to change my appointment. I never cancelled last minute & always wanted to reschedule in hopes of being able to be seen. Completely rude. Just a reminder that the person who's answering the phone is making an impression on future patients. Especially ones like me who were coming to you out of network. Disappointing experience.

Dentist is polite and nice, I never have problems switch days if we need modify it appointments…read more All the assistants are usually on the rude side. Poor social skills. Recently I was asking the main doctor to give a referral, my daughter needed wisdom teeth extractions, she sent me to an endodontist. . I also contacted them again about a concern for my kid , I left 2 messages and she never called back. I was talking today with someone that has a horrible experience there, fillings falling off, wrong tooth extracted, that is a very serious concern. I am not changing dentist at this time, I am glad we have good teeth in this family, just a 20 mins cleaning, but I will be more careful. This services are not free, we need to make sure we get great services and care.

As a registered dental assistant with over 10 years experience, this is the dirtiest and most…read moreunprofessional office I have ever seen. There is only one doctor that has any chair side manners but even that can't make up for all the other issues this office has. The office manager is unprofessional and should stick to his role as husband of the doctor and stay home. The office is a revolving door of employees that never have any experience. The front desk is barely keeping things afloat and can't manage their patients accordingly and professionally. If you feel like going to an office where you always feel squeezed in with 3 other patients seeing one doctor at the same time, and with a waiting room that smells like vomit then you will enjoy coming here. I recommend staying far away from this place.

We walked in and were instantly greeted by the sweet and smiling receptionist. I really liked the green color scheme it gives a calm and warm feeling & the air smells so nice and fresh. We checked in, my 4 year old son proceeded to play in the play area and they had play boxes, magnetic toys which he loves! They also had the office decorated for Halloween and it was so cute. We waited about 10 mins, we were called to the back and the dental assistant asked a few questions, asked if my son liked Bluey and she put on Bluey for him ( they have a tv on the wall and one on the ceiling) he hopped in the chair and we waited for Dr. Anwar. About 10ish minutes later Dr walks in, introduces himself to my son and I and asked about any concerns and then started explaining how things would go. My son was very calm with the Dr and did very well. Dr gave us a cute bag with a toothbrush, toothpaste and some other goodies. overall I was very very happy with our visit, no complaints and we will see them again in 6 months. Thanks KANOPI :)

My son had fear of going to the dentist previously and since being with Dr Anwar , he no longer does . I truly believe it is all due to the dentist's skills, positivity and gentle nature. They always talk to the kids directly ensuring they are okay and comfortable. The visits are always thorough. In addition to the services the kids have received~ I have always loved how calm and inviting the waiting room is for families. The toys are fun and engaging and there is usually always a movie playing. We appreciate all the extra efforts and are so happy to have found such an amazing dentistry for the kids. Thank you :)
