[[HIGHLIGHT]]Professional, Friendly and Kind![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is the best dental office, hands down![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The moment I walked in, Eileen was friendly and very helpful with assisting me with my insurance coverage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She repeatedly said, "we'll take good care of you here." [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was able to get an appointment with Dr. Setareh the same day, within minutes of me walking through the door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The wait was short lived, with only a few minutes in the waiting room before I was taken into a room to get x-rays. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kimberly was gentle and kind. She always let me know what every different technique of x-rays were for and what was next.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Within minutes, I was introduced to Dr. Satareh, who I realized was my dentist, many years prior. She immediately began by explaining her findings from my x-rays and what the most important issues were and which ones to take care of first and why.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Through the steps of the procedures, she always asked if I was comfortable and she asked if I was experiencing any pain. She was concerned with my comfort, always. She was gentle and thorough, explaining the procedures and what she would be doing next. I didn't catch Dr Satereh's assistant's name, but she was as professional as any other doctor. She was concerned about my comfort and took care of any problem I had right-a-way. Before I knew it, it was over. I was surprised how smoothly everything went. What is also great about this dental office is the dentists, endodontist and periodontists are all at this one location so, you don't have to travel from one place to the next for these services. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Dr. Sateher is worst dentist ever.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Her insurance girl lied to me and told me it was $6,600 for my bridge and I called my insurance company and it was $4,200. Then I told Dr s that my tooth was hurting and I don't think we should Crown it because it will go bad she said no, here I am 2 years later and I have to have the whole Bridge removed pull that tooth and spend $37,000 on implants. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am furious because I knew better and she lied to me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do not go to this dentist Simi Valley. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wanted zero stars but it's forcing me to give her one star[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Another dental office that racks up the bill with unnecessary procedures and then splits them up into multiple visits to confuse you into overpaying. They even charged my insurance $88 for oral hygiene instructions which I 100% denied from the hygienist. She then continued to push different products so they could feel justified in adding this charge. I would have been able to afford my deep cleaning had they not been trying to pad the bill wherever possible. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Woman at the front was condescending when I brought up my concerns.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would never return to this dentist. Ask what is actually needed before signing anything here! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I honestly can't say enough good things about this dental office, and especially about Leah, the dental hygienist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment she walked in, she made me feel completely at ease. She's incredibly kind, patient, and clearly knows exactly what she's doing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Leah was gentle but thorough, explained everything she was doing in a way that actually made sense, and checked in with me the entire time to make sure I was comfortable. Cleanings can be stressful, but she somehow made the experience calm and even pleasant. The office itself is clean, well-organized, and the staff is friendly, but Leah is truly a standout. If you're someone who gets nervous about dental visits, ask for her-you'll be in great hands. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly staff and doctors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I took my mom today to see Dr. Mark Yafai and he explained everything in details and the process seemed pretty efficient for the procedure (tooth extraction). They provide a comfortable waiting room with a free Keurig coffee machine. Overall it was a great experience. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Dr. Setareh and her staff are truly amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The way they took care of my mom was great. She was gentle and listened to her concerns. Sad to see a few negative comments on here as the experience we had was fantastic and I would recommend this office to anyone looking for a nice and caring dentist. read more

I have waited quite a while to write this review but cannot let it go any longer. I visited this Dental office and let them know that I was on Medicare and a limited budget. They do accept Medicare patients so I asked for a basic exam and a cleaning, both covered under the Medicare program. This company, like others in the area, takes your appointments and then it's all about up-selling or adding extra procedures that are very costly. In my case, they insisted on a "deep cleaning" that entailed some laser treatments that cost $500.00 above and beyond the basics. This is common practice with or without Medicare, it's what they do to increase their bottom line. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I felt very much taken advantage of and won't be going back there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just wanted to let others know, especially those on Medicare who can't afford to get ripped off so badly. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fantastic work and friendly office staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All types of dental care and gentle healthy care.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The way this SCAM of a dental business treated my mother is a shame!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Be warned Simi Valley!!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This dental office is a bait & switch, rude business out to mislead & scam people, especially the elderly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Don't believe what they advertise. I hope this places tanks for how terribly they treated my mother, who made an appointment for the cleaning advertised in the window for $59.95 & explained what insurance she had when making the appointment & also at her appointment. However, when she came to her appointment was only given x-rays by someone who seemed so inexperienced she nearly choked my mom trying to get all the x-rays. Then she was told she had to come back for another appointment for the cleaning, when her appointment was supposed to be for a cleaning. Then they recommended a ton of work to my mom that she said wasn't in her budget (including all sorts of oral surgery & expensive work) but she just wanted the cleaning advertised & they actually told her "go to the free clinic" when she called to find out the next steps. I am appalled! My mom recently moved to CA from the east coast, is retired, & is on a fixed budget. I'm so livid by how they treated her. Shameful! They do not honor their advertisements, and are trying gouge people for unnecessary dental work. read more

Dr Bo Yu and Katherine were so professional and gentle in my crown procedure. No pain and discomfort on my part at all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From start to finish they made sure I was comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you so much for taking such good care of me. read more

I have been a patient here for several years. They have completed a whole mouth reconstruction on me. My smile looks amazing & the quality of work is second to none. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everyone in the office from the front desk, assistants & the doctors are so welcoming & accommodating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a patient for life! I highly recommend.​ read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I can't even put into words how much I love the staff and professionalism of this office.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am normally so nervous/anxious to go the dentist, and when I get to this office, it's like we've been friends for years.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The dental care is excellent too! Dr Yu, Kat (or is it Cat), Nathaniel and the front office ladies put me at rest (I actually fell asleep during my latest dental procedure!!). If you currently don't have a trusted dentist, try going to Simi Smiles. I did, and I'm glad I switched to them. read more

Shady and try to scam you. Even if your insurance covers you they still try to rip you off by overcharging.

This office has been amazing through all my journey thus far. I was pregnant had an emergency tooth cracked and they got me in next day as a New patient. Then after my son was born I came back for wisdom tooth extractions and they did great recovery was easy thanks to this team. Now I go in for regular check ins and Mimi, Katherine, and my Dr. Setareh sure know me as if I were family! I will always make the drive to this office every time because they know how to handle every situation and they always make time for you and your loved ones! Keep it up ladies! See you soon for my night guard ;) so I can keep on smiling! read more

Simi Valley Smiles Dentistry - This is my doctor and I Highly recommend you switch today you won't regret it! - General Dentistry Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Best. Dentist. Period. I worked in the dental field in the Air Force and met so many amazing dental professionals, and know from my work as a dental lab tech which ones were good or just so so. Dr Setareh is my fave dentist of all time. She cares about her patients and insist on only giving them the best treatment options available. A true professional. Her office manager, Mimi, is also quite caring and does her best to help patients get the most from their dental benefits. An amazing dental office, for sure, and highly recommended! read more

This is the worst dentist I've ever been to. They're impossible to get ahold of when you call - multiple time I've been put on hold and hung up on. And their billing system is terrible - you'll pay in office and they'll send you multiple follow up bills afterwards. When you ask questions about the billing they have no clue what is going on and when you ask for confirmations on what they claim to tell you in office about your bill, they never send anything but promise they will. Terrible service. In addition to that, I've gone to another dentist since getting crowns here and my new dentist has pointed out ways that my last crown job (here at simi valley smiles) were done poorly. read more

BEWARE! Worst dentist. I spent hours in this office just waiting on multiple occasions. My dentist Dr M forgot I was even there one time. The cap he put on my tooth was so big he spent an hour grinding it down to fit. So now my bite is all messed up. read more

Root Canal experience: I've finally found a Dental office that I can trust and the Dentist's are really good at what they do and not to mention the Manager and staff!! After searching for a few years for a dentist who wouldn't overcharge me and who have Dentists that are patient and know what they're doing, I'm so happy with this choice!! I had a fear of Dentists from previous experiences and I had a tooth that was bothering me for the last few years of the pandemic which I put off way too long. After assigning myself to Simi Valley Smiles, I called for an emergency visit because the tooth infection had become unbearable and even had to go to the hospital from the pain. The office Manager Mahnaz Tavakoli was super nice and understanding. She got me in Asap and she was wonderful about NOT overcharging me! Dr. Khalili did my Root Canal and I was shocked it wasn't painful, he was really patient with me, his assistant was awesome as well. Dr. Sehtareh did the filling post procedure and she was very nice and quick, no pain at all. Looking to change my daughter over soon and looking forward to going back and taking care of my teeth. read more

Always excellent service at Simi Valley Smiles! Easy to schedule and they're accommodating when you have an urgent situation. Great front desk staff and Dr. Memarian is pleasant and takes his time to get to know you. read more

Bad care bad quality My tooth was pulled due to infected inlay from Dr Meriman The rest of my teeth never had a problem read more

I was so impressed on how nice, caring and professional everyone is here! Going to the dentist is not my favorite thing (but who likes it?)and the staff actually made me feel comfortable and I had a pleasant time. Dr M is really nice and knowledgeable. Elizabeth who took my Xrays is the sweetest person on earth, she made me feel so welcomed and at ease. And the hygienist Naomi Jordan is extremely nice and efficient. I tried so many dental offices, this one is definitely a keeper! read more

Loved the dentist but the person responsible for informing you what you owe is awful. They we supposed to call before the end of year with our coverage and out of pocket that my husband needed done. We wanted to put the 2022 and 2023 benefits a week or so apart so he could get the most done with low out of pocket. They never gave us the information. Went in person after first of year and person was supposed to call or email within 24 hours. Never happened. Called this AM and that person was on the phone and would call me right back. Never happened. Guess I will have to contact Medicare/Kaiser and tell them we need to change offices because although the dentist is great the staff is bad. Or at least this one person is. The other front office staff are great. NOT THE WAY TO RUN A BUSINESS for repeat customers. read more

I have written before regarding my praise for this practice; I write again because I have had years of bad dentistry and disappointments (I am soon to be 75) until I came into this Smiles office under Dr. Setareh and Mimi, office manager. I recently had complicated work done... to perfection. Dr. Khalili did the root canal and he and his assistant Henry were so very professional and the work was excellent. Dr. Setareh and Katherine, assistant, did the hard work of breaking a 3-tooth bridge and takin care of the cavity and infection near the root, and also did the prep work the week before and then followed up after the root canal -- again, an incredible experience for someone who has, as I said, suffered from bad dentistry. As is NORMAL for this office, Mimi and the office staff were upbeat and helpful. This is why I am always at ease with this practice -- forgot to add the upbeat and "upper" personalities here -- no gloom and doom, no rudeness, just cooperative and caring ways. read more

The WORST dentist experience. I absolutely loved my dental hygienist at Avenue of smiles, Nina. Going to see her was like going to see an old friend, always such a pleasure and she actually cared about my teeth and rejoiced in the progress we made! I couldn't have asked for better. Unfortunately, we switched insurance and I went to see Dr. Setareh and she barely spent maybe 10 minutes on my teeth at most and kept complaining about how she can't do anything because they're bleeding too much and it's too painful for me. She repeatedly said I grind my teeth so I need to get fitted for a sleep guard, for which I'm definitely getting a second opinion because I'm not too sure about that. I'll try to keep it in mind though. The assistant Marlee (I think that's her name) is the absolute worst!! She repeatedly lied to me. Told me that she would call me if she had any openings after scheduling my appointment months out and I never heard from her. She told me this several times to the point where I didn't even bother scheduling the appointment thinking they'll have openings for sure. Then she told me repeatedly she would email me my referral and of course never did. Then I called to follow up and asked to have the referral emailed to me and of course, never heard from her. I'm definitely switching dentists. read more

We love this dentist office so much. We have followed Dr. Setareh from office to office. Recently, I had a tibia plateau fracture. I have never had such good care from a dental office in my life. Mimi was especially caring for me. She went and got a wheelchair for me to make it from the car, Around inside the office, And take me back to the car again. So happy for this wonderful, caring dental office. Thank you all so much! read more

Be sure you go here with eyes wide open. I was scheduled for a teeth cleaning today, I was called 5 days ago saying they would have to cancel because they don't have a hygienist ??? Naomi cleaned my teeth last time and did a great job. When I asked Simi Valley Smiles about when I can expect to reschedule, they couldn't give me a date??? Possibly December, they will put me on a list??? I don't know how you can run a dental office without a hygienist. My insurance changed when my wife and I retired, this is who our insurance provider recommends. We have gone here a couple of times each, every time we go it seems like their practice is to try and up sell you on something that is not covered by insurance. I'm sure you will be advised that you need a bite guard, or a scaling and root planing procedure, or a antibacterial procedure. I was quoted a price of $460 for the scaling and anticbac procedures, I declined as this is not covered by insurance and was never suggested by may last dentist of 20 plus years. I asked their hygienist after my last teeth cleaning how my teeth and gums looked, she said great, never said anything about the up sell procedures recommended. My wife did get talked into the bite guard for $135 that is not covered by insurance. On my last visit while I was waiting in the lobby, I overheard multiple customers being recommended to get a bite guard ??? BEWARE OF THE UP SELL On a positive note, the facility is clean and equipment seems to be modern. read more

These people are crooks, and they ruined my teeth. My teeth were worse after I visited them. They quoted me real prices and lowered them after I called my insurance company to complain. read more

BEWARE! Dental staff themselves are talented and nice, but should leave and go find another office. The front office billing practices are questionable to say the least. Mimi, office manager never responds to calls and when I requested estimates for work - each time the prices of everything was different. One time the crown would cost $898, another $999 and still another for $1200 for the same tooth - all of those prices were hundreds above the allowed maximum billing by the insurance company. Instead of dealing with me directly, returning my numerous phone calls or even answering my mailed letter they turned me over to collections because they don't have any idea how to properly bill dental insurance companies. I question whether or not this misbilling is done on purpose to get more money out of patients who don't know any better. If you look on Nextdoor.com there are several additional complaints from several other past clients who have also had billing woes with Simi Valley Smiles some even having to go as far as small claims court. My next step is with the BBB and disputing charges. Do yourselves a huge favor and stay away from this headache inducing office. read more

Quoted $1200 for inlay and an onlay. When they found put we were looking for a new dentist/second opinion, they tried to drop the price to $950. Got a second opinion and only needed a filling replaced for $300...SHADY. HIGH PRESSURE SALES BY DR SETERAH. Speaks to my wife like a child and degrades her for not purchasing dental work. Gives me the guilt trip and "You're the man of the house" speech to try and pressure me into buying. I have had 2 crowns, 1 inlay, and 1 onlay done at Simi Valley Smiles. I still have issues with ALL of these and will need to fix them. STAY AWAY FROM SIMI VALLEY SMILES!!! read more

Do not use Simi Valley Smiles Dentistry on Tapo Canyon Rd suite 107! I've been paying on my account regularly. I was sent to collections without any notice for amount owed. No warning, nothing. I had just made a payment then in the mail today a notice from a collection agency. It is the worst customer service I've ever encountered and I highly advise NOT TO USE THIS DENTAL OFFICE! read more

Like many others I've always hated the dentist . They made me feel comfortable and less anxious. The staff was super nice and worked with me. Was also able to get to the root of the issue and help me feel better quick. Couldn't recommend them enough. :) read more

Undoubtedly the best dental office in Simi Valley. From the first day I visited this office I've felt as though I've been cared for and treated like family. We have been patients of Dr. Setarehs and her staff since 2004. Simi Valley Smiles Dentistry is conveniently located on Tapo Canyon near the 118 Freeway. They have a great staff who are knowledgeable, friendly, personable dentists/hygienists -- I would highly recommend them! read more

Went for a few years. Enjoyed Shari, the hygentist. Office help friendly. After a couple years with crown replacements, I was told I needed 2 more crowns replaced, one of my gold ones. I was happening to travel to Mexico in a month, so opted to have it done there. When I went, I was happy with dentist in Cozumel. He spent over an hour with xrays, full mouth pictures. I told him of the two crowns SMILES told me needed replacement...he came back to me and said.."wish I could find a reason to remove these crowns, but cant find a good reason to do so." I just returned from a new dentist in Simi, again no need to replace those crowns. Just makes me wonder..... :( read more

First of all, Dr. Ramina is the coolest dentist EVER! For the first time in my life, I'm excited to get dental work done because the entire team at Simi Valley Smiles has such a warm and caring energy. Patient comfort is prioritized and I was treated so respectfully. I feel extremely confident at this office that all of my needs will be met with a high level of compassion and attention to detail. The pricing is extremely reasonable too considering their state-of-the-art technology. If you aren't already a patient here, you should be! Switching from my old dentist to Dr. Ramina is the best decision I've ever made. read more

Everyone was friendly and attentive. Katherine spent extra time making sure my teeth were clean and polished. Dr. Ramina was honest, on what I needed done. My previous dentist always insisted I needed a deep cleaning (not 100% covered) even after just 6 months. Everyone made me feel at ease and as if I had been coming to this dentist forever (1st time). The front desk girls where quick at getting everything processed so I could be seen right away, and very nice. Pre-filled out paperwork on line making process even faster. Would definitely recommend, I was in and out within an hour! read more

I have been to some horrible and so so dentist before in the past. My last dentist had problems keeping a schedule and wouldn't be sharp when it was my appointment. Would have to wait 20 mins from my 2:30pm appointment. It was so annoying. But when coming here, it was sharp. The staff that took pictures of my teeth with the machine was super friendly, and the Dr. Was really nice as well. I would recommend this place to any person having trouble with there dentist right now. Update::: July 18th If you need cleaning, and need x-rays, ask for Sabrina. She is super chill and laid back, awesome to talk too, makes you feel right at home! Her and the doc make a great fun duo, makes you want to come to the dentist in a regular basis. read more

When it comes to finding a dentist I trust it has been a difficult journey to say the least. After my first appointment with Simi Valley Smiles Dentistry, I knew I had found the right dentistry office that I not only trusted but had a wonderful experience with. Dr. Setareh was very caring and detailed when reviewing my x rays and gave me sound advice on procedures I definitely needed but not pushing me at all like other experiences I've had. Mimi, their office manager, was absolutely lovely and very supportive in answering my questions and helping me schedule follow-up appointments. My partner and I will be long term patients here and are so happy we found this gem in Simi Valley. read more

Simi Valley Smiles Dentist - Dr Memarian is an amazing dentis. He has been so patient with my mother who is 86 years old. She had 11 teeth pulled and partial dentures put in.

Thank you everyone for all your help. read more

First off, I, like many others hate the dentist! Not anymore now that I have been to Simi Valley Smiles!! This is the best dental office I have ever been to. Professional employees, clean rooms & bathrooms, the newest technology & very compassionate doctors & assistants!! I am so grateful to have found this office right here in Simi. What made me choose this office is they have all the speciality doctors, ie: endodontist, periodontist & oral surgeons all in one place!! So much more convenient than running from office to office. I will recommend this office to anyone who asks me if I know a good dentist. Thanks for having the patience & sense of humor to deal with me & my mouth!! read more
