Have never been a big fan of the dentist, maybe it's because of experiences that I have had in the past. Smile World is pretty close to my home and after taking a look at their Yelp page, I thought that I would give them a shot. I was extremely pleased with my first visit to Smile world. The entire staff was very warm and welcoming and made me feel well very comfortable. I had to have a root canal performed and I couldn't feel a thing (very important) Needless to say, I am back for my second visit and I am actually pretty excited to get the work done, I never thought I would say that about a dentist visit. I would be very happy to recommend Smile World to my friends and family. read more

I went in today for a second opinion about implants. I never saw the doctor need to say before I scheduled this appointment. I asked the question if they did sedation, I have now wasted twice with two appointments that have deceived me and not been honest. I do not recommend this place. I have decided to take my business elsewhere, especially when I'm having to deal with thousands of dollars out of my pocket I wouldn't even get them one star if I could read more

Smile World Dental has been a treat to work with during my recent dental issues. Their office staff -- particularly Beatrice and Rosa -- are attentive and efficient, and overall pleasant to work with. read more

Doctor C & his assistant Jessica were so patient with my daughter. She is very afraid of the dentist and doesn't sit super well but they kept being patient and were so sweet to her. Not only that, but a previous dentist told us she needed a root canal--when we got to Doctor C he said he isn't sure she needed one. He ended up just giving her a filling. Go to Smile World Dental and get a second opinion!! He saved my girl from an unnecessary root canal. read more

Just clear your whole morning, because I was there for nearly three hours. It was my first appointment and I filled out paperwork for a few minutes but mind you they already had my insurance info prior. An hour passes, another customer comes in and she's seen in five minutes and I hear her get her entire appointment while I wait one more hour. I asked if I can at least get my xray's done for my teeth and the lady says sure, seats me in the x-ray room, 30 minutes pass of just sitting. I told the lady I have class at MJC and she said she'd let the doctor know and THEN she sent an assistant in to do my xrays. I heard her tell the doctor I was waiting and he still continued with the second lady. The doctor comes and I'm already late for class, he says every first appointment takes this long, he really didn't care at all. Very indifferent with me compared to his other patient with large a** veneers. Whatever I left and now my teeth still effing hurt and I'm just going to look elsewhere. read more

This was my third dentist just to get a tooth pulled ,my initial appointment :they took pictures. Everybody was very friendly. The doctor was very knowledgeable. Kept telling me he wanted to pull XYZ tooth and get implants and then after that sent me to his Finacial person who ran a credit check on me, which my credit isn't that great. Anyways, I have Medi-Cal dental, which they accept 2nd appointment , I went back. He filled two cavities. They said they call me that was in August here we are in December. I called back because I really need this one tooth pulled and they were my third dentist asking to pull this tooth. They gave me a full runaround told me that they had to do a bone graft which my insurance won't cover just pull the tooth even though I don't want an implant. ,however, my insurance covers partials, but they won't Order a partial for that tooth so they referred me to another dentist. I called that dentist they referred me to and they said they needed their referral sent over ,so I called them back and they gave me the runaround again , say that don't do referrals? so basically.... I'm the dentist was wonderful and I'm sure if you have money to spend. This is the place to go. I don't have $20,000 for five implants, all I wanted is one tooth pulled so once again I'm shopping for a fourth dentist just to get this tooth pulled before it abscess. Seems that they are just for Cosmetic only which should've been explained to me when I made my first appointment because this is a money making operation read more

Bad vibes all around. Everything was going well until I was introduced to Reema, she gave me creepy car salesperson vibes as she went over the treatment plan. She is very rude and has horrible customer service skills. Will not be returning. read more

Excellent customer service and very friendly staff! Reema, their office manager, was kind and very helpful in providing dental work consultation and a pleasure to work with. Beatrice, Esmeralda and Isabella were also very friendly team members. Our dentist, Dr Pradeep K. was very knowledgeable and I was impressed with the quality of service provided by him and his entire team at Smile World Dental. I would definitely recommend this dental office to anyone seeking quality dental work. read more

Had implants done here that cost me a fortune, 2 of the 4 implants have fell out , complained since day one they hurt, constantly told it was this and that , said screw it and just lived with it, not counting the 3 sets of teeth that kept breaking, been told by the surgeon they sent me to that it wasn't a very good fit, but kept with them , now have a problem with a lower tooth from the denture being crooked and grinding on one of the lower teeth, had a appointment cause in pain and they call and want to change another week , even though I already took the day off per their schedule, all i can say was they were my best friend when getting thousands of dollars out of me and now im a piece of shit to them , thats fine , lawyer it is, studs that fell out are on my table , anyone that goes here good luck , they are hustlers and scammers, i had to hang up on whoever the rude person was that told me oh well , if im in pain then find a new spot , great business attitude right there , good luck people read more

Smile World Dental - Showing off my new teeth. - General Dentistry Near Me - Salida, California

The staff and dentists are always friendly, They are all professional. I always go here for all of my dental care.

If you are a new patient or are continually having chargeable procedures you will be treated very well, I had a full extraction and denture implants put in, within the first year3 of my bottom implants had to be removed, they said it was due to smoking, I agree it didn't help but no bone graphs were ever put in, I had been told by previous dentists that I would need bone graphs if I wanted any kind of work done like this, I asked the dentist if any bone graphs were put in,he said he didn't know and never spoke of it again. My first set of teeth were very set back, didn't look like me at all, they made another set, looked better for the first year, but they started setting back as well. It has been a constant struggle getting a appointment to have the bands replaced when they wear out, I tried making a appointment for for 3 months last summer with no return phone calls, finally got a appointment in December to have it canceled due to being out of bands until the middle of January, went in, the Dr replaced the metal cap that is in the denture that the band goes in, now 2 weeks later the cap has came out of the denture and is stuck on the stud implant, I called and they couldn't see me until next week, no regards of how hard it is to eat when you only have 1 stud holding the bottom plate down and now it doesn't want to stay in, it only takes 15 minutes to fix. I have had it with this place, I will be finding a new dentist ( more money out of pocket) but it will be worth not having to be constantly ignored by this office. read more

By far the worst dental office I have yet to experience. I scheduled an appointment for a general check-up and cleaning one month in advance. The office staff kept calling me every week leading up to the appointment claiming that my insurance was not received. I called my insurance, and they indeed did send over the paperwork and had recommended this office in particular since it was closest to me. On the day of the appointment, they treated me and afterward dared to bill me out of pocket. Over $2,000 for a checkup, X-rays, and cleaning!! You have to be kidding me. I called the office, and they made some pitty excuse that their system was down!! Please do not waste your time with these incompetent thieves!! read more

Had my first appointment today and it went great. Beatrice one of the Dental Assistant's took my X-rays & photos and walked me through their process and was extremely caring and gentle ! The doctor who did my exam was very nice, informative and listened to my concerns. Can't wait to come back for my cleaning in two weeks. read more

Had a great experience here all staff was extremely friendly and very informative! Dentist was gentle felt no pain!! I'm looking forward for my next appointment!! Thank you everyone! read more

Be vigilant and be careful, they will scam you. Went in for some work that I had already paid for and told them that's all I wanted done and they agreed. then maybe like 2 or 3 weeks after those procedures had been done they charged me for like almost $5,000. I also had crowns and permanents put in and the next day after I got the procedure done the permanent fell off. It's been months and I now have an uncovered tooth that's sensitive but I don't trust them to come in and get it fixed. read more

I absolutely love this dental office. All the staff and super nice. The dentists there are super quick and efficient in their work. They are on the higher end pricing wise (as i do not gave dental insurance currently) but I feel like it's definitely worth the money for how amazing this staff is. Thank you!! read more

They have a friendly staff and also the Doctor is very really nice and have a light hand . It's 100% all your problem for your teeth, he or they can solve it. read more

My family and I have been coming to smile world dental for about 3 1/2 years since moving from Southern California. Dr Prakash is AMAZING!!!! I'm very pleased with his work. And his staff are very friendly and professional. They really do go out of their way to make sure their patients are taken care of. My kids and I have never had a bad experience since coming here. If there's someone reading this post hesitant about making that "initial" visit I would highly recommend giving SmileWorld Dental Team a try! You will literally be in good hands I love my dental office always kind and professional! read more

Best dentist in the world. At 63 seen several dentist .Smile world is the best !!! Implants are top quality, changed my life !

This place has been a life changer for my husband. His teeth were horrible and he never smiled. After working with him for 2 years, he's got his smile and confidence back. I loved how carful and patient they were with him. He hates Drs and Dentists. Even though he went through some unusual issues, he said he would do it all over again. We never would have gone here, but a friend referred us. Both of us are so thankful to have found them! read more

First let me say that this place is very discriminating and I feel like if my skin was a different color I would be treated with the respect that everyone deserves. I absolutely do not recommend this place and I hope no one ever goes through what I went through at this place. read more

Dr. K Thank you for your kind and patient spirit! You made my blood pressure go down when I needed it! Today I'm feeling so much better now. Thank you to the kind dental assistant who had my medicine ready for me to help relieve the pain. I didn't even have to ask you ... you just did it. Ashley I am so glad you are back at work! You are an asset to this office, Please don't leave until this project is complete. I miss you and usually schedule appointments before 1:30 knowing you will be there to give me a play by play on everything that is going or will be done! Anna Belle Thank you for the professional attitude you bring to the front desk.... I know I am not the only patient your office has when I come in but you are the person I see first so thanks for alwas being there. Yikes! Lucky you! Wait ... Lucky me (lol). Paz! Cindy M. read more

I have always been afraid of dentist. This dentist is amazing. He made me very at ease. This was a clean, knowledgeable and friendly office. Thanks to this Doctor arranging for me to make payments on the major work I need done. I was able to get all my dental needs done at one time. If you have been searching for a old fashion caring dentist that has state of the art training, the finest dental equipment and truly cares about helping you, this is the place to go. read more

I have been a customer to Smile World for the last 5 yrs. you get treated with dignity and respect. My kids have been here as well and like the level of care and treatment they have gotten. The staff is very careful in making you feel comfortable for any procedure given and Dr. Prakash make you feel cared for. He gives you a step by process of your treatment with clarity and explains anything that is not familiar to you. I really highly recommend him and his office. I would go no where else. I love his dental office. You won't regret your decision to go with his practice. read more

They gave me the run-around for a month. For three weeks, they told me that my insurance had not approved removing my wisdom teeth, when in fact it had. Then, after I called them for the umpteenth time about the issue, SmileWorld told that the office had in fact received the confirmation, but no longer took my insurance. They did not call me about policy changes. They did not inform me any of the other times I called to find out what was going on with my surgery. They gave me the run-around. I do not recommend this office for anyone who wants an office that actually does its job. read more

Execellent people! I've always had a phobia and many other dentist office didn't understand that and always made me even more hesitant to go. With smile world it has been a complete different experience even with my little one and filling her cavities and the patience and care that they always show to our family in every visit. I am definitely thankful to have found them and will continue attending their office always. Will definitely recommend. read more

I'm amazed by how friendly and how comfortable the staff makes you feel. Always making sure you don't feel any pain.

Went in after another office screwed up. They gave me a quote. Never followed thru with more info as requested. Found them to not be very thorough. They dont have in office crowns which is a turn off to me with where dentistry is now a days. Told me the dentist is only in office twice a week! Wont be returning. read more

I had the most amazing experience here. The staff are so sweet and patient! I've never been treated so great by any other dentist office! I have found my permanent place for all things dental! read more

Since it's close to holidays I called everywhere in Stockton and couldn't get seen today at all. However, I contacted Smile World Dental in Salida and they were able to squeeze me in. Thank goodness because I have a very bad toothache which needed to be seen right away. I went in and the staffs were very friendly. Their bathroom was very clean and they even have a waiting area with toys to keep the kids busy. All the staffs including the dentist were very polite, friendly, and welcoming. Their service was beyond exceptional! It was so worth the drive from Stockton to Salida. read more

Avoid this place at all costs liars and thieves had to go here in a pinch because my dentist wasn't available They said I needed two root canals and five cavities but needed oral surgery before they could do their work .tried to charge me $4000k for their work before it could be done so that they could suck all of my insurance first before I went to the oral surgeon . Went to my doctor the next day had two cavities and one root canal and referred me to an oral as it turns out I did not need oral surgery and for all the work that he needed to do was only $780 including my insurance again thieves and liars read more

We have been patients with them since , we moved from Elk grove maybe a year ago.Every time we go back they don't have records of some of the procedures they done in the past.... That makes me think they don't document all the things they do...They took my Husband to an office and told him my insurance didn't cover removing both of his wisdom tooth and he needed to applied for Care credit . They did talked to him about risk and consequences, charged about $5,000.00 for the work. They never said his teeth will separate with time . Now his teeth are separating and I am afraid it's because of the work they did . They changed technicians very often..you can tell with no much experience in the field. I wanted this office because it was local, close to home but my family wants me to look for another office. read more

This is by far the worse place I have been to. I've been here four times in the past 6 months and have waited over an hour to be to be called in. I went in about two days ago and waited 20 minutes after my cleaning for the doctor to come in and explain my x rays. They told me to come in in two days to get my results read to me. Why am I going to make a double trip?? Makes noooo sense. They always overbook themselves and it's just chaotic. I wouldn't recommend this place at all. read more

Everyone from the front office to the back treatment area were so extremely helpful and friendly. I had to reschedule my appointment a few times due to work and emergency situatuons but the scheduling staff remained very accomodating and understanding and I was very surprised that I could be seen so quickly. I had been to another dental office in the area where the waitlist was more than 1 year!!! I was also very nervous about going back to the dentist after so long but was reassured that they will take care of everything that I need and I am so excited to have that beautiful smile again!!! read more

I brought my whole family here, ages varying from 3 to 29. The staff was very friendly. The office is clean and there is a play are for the kids with big windows so the kids can watch the cars go by. They also offer refreshments in the lobby while you wait. I especially liked the hygienist, she was very knowledgeable and gave thorough demonstrations on how to care for your teeth at home. This office is conveniently located in Salida and we will definitely continue coming. read more
