First of many visits to Smiletheory!
Gurjyot N.

As a new patient at this clinic, I had a very smooth experience at Smiletheory. Dr. Singh and her staff were super friendly from the beginning of the visit to the end, very accommodating as they were able to fit in a last minute appointment for me at my convenience, and the service provided was highly professional, thorough, and detailed. The staff in particular made me feel very comfortable. From the get go before even visiting the clinic, the receptionists were polite in their correspondence and due to a slight hiccup on my end I had to request a change in my appointment day and time. No problem for the team at Smiletheory! They were understanding and went above and beyond to accomodate according to my convenience as early as possible. Never have I seen such efficiency and customer care at other dental clinics. During my visit and cleaning, the staff was very knowledgeable and took extreme care in doing their job precisely. It felt reassuring to be under the care of people who really care about their job and doing it exceedingly well. Secondly, the ambience of the clinic made it even more relaxing for me as a first-time visitor. The modern, chic feel and look of the clinic was definitely something new for me and it felt like I was entering a new and futuristic clinic not many else seem to have in the area. It was clean and the equipment also felt new and advanced. This environment contributed to how calm and at ease I felt throughout my visit and I can't stress enough how important that is as a new patient. Smiletheory's contemporary approach to dentistry will have you coming back for more! Lastly, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with and consult Dr. Singh. Even with a mask on you could tell she was smiling all the time and excited to be talking to a patient concerned about his teeth. She was very personable and her expert opinions, advice, and quality of care were all beyond reassuring. You can tell when someone truly cares and that's clearly obvious with Dr. Singh! My experience at Smiletheory exceeded all expectations and I'm glad to have found a permanent place for my dental needs. I highly recommend this place and it's people to everyone.

As good as it gets! Had a wonderful experience at Smiletheory, right from the friendly staff to the modern office and the high tech machines. I'm a new patient here and I liked how streamlined the onboarding experience was. No waiting in the office trying to fill out paperwork in the middle of the work day sitting on an uncomfortable chair. When I first requested an appointment online, I was sent a couple of digital forms which I happily filled out at home sipping on my khombucha. The visit itself was very smooth except for the drive there in 100 degree SJ heat! Good thing they had effective air conditioning. From all my past experiences with other dentists, the offices are usually pretty run down, old, probably passed on from generations, possibly make-shift (horror) movie sets, and often shared between multiple dentists from the same family! (In one instance my dentist was swapped with her husband at the last minute, which didn't help my nerves!) But Smiletheory feels like a new era of dentistry with its modern office and digital workflows. When you first walk in, you might mistake it for a luxury hotel spa! It's a very contemporary office, super clean, almost new space. It could probably double up as a spa if they add lavendar fragrance in the air. Within a few minutes of arriving, I was introduced to MJ who showed me the office and to my room. In all my years going to different doctors and dentists, the new patient introduction was less talk, more interrogation: about not only my own health, but my family's health & disease history, my lifestyle habits and food choices (read mistakes), etc. But with MJ it felt like a real conversation with a friend. We spoke about my goals (of having a Hollywood smile as they call it) and other concerns right from trying to avoid any cavities to keeping my teeth white. Then I had my X-rays taken with like-new machines and appliances. I met Dr. Singh who went over my X-rays and addressed my concerns. Compared to other dentists, the conversation was very comprehensive and easy to follow. Her explanation of complex scenarios regarding my wisdom teeth was simple yet detailed, with a few analogies to real life examples. In the past, these talks with dentists have unfortunately been very rushed, but that wasn't the case with Dr Singh. For example, one of my previous dentists simply gave me a referral card to a dental surgeon for my wisdom teeth extraction - without much explanation or counselling or advise. But at Smiletheory, Dr. Singh went over the reasons for and against the surgery, her recommendations, and suggested time-frames for it. Finally it was time for my regular cleaning, and Ms T did that very well. She's very polite and looks quite harmless, but oh boy the cleaning was pretty heavy duty and thorough, as it should be! I remember the cleaning being less painful than at other dentists'. Again, following the theme of the visit, it didn't feel rushed at all. All in all I had a heartwarming experience, and I realized that a visit to the dentist doesn't have to be defined by nervousness or anxiety, but rather by one that exudes confidence, motivation and the simple feeling of happiness.

Reception
Japna C.

I have always been scared of going to the dentist as a kid. I don't think the childhood fear will prevail after seeing DR. Singh. She effortlessly dealt with my cavities and I didn't even feel I had something done at all. I now trust her with my teeth and dental health. Everyone in the clinic is very friendly too! What works is it's convenient location in San Jose. Seeing Dr. Singh again regularly for checkups.

Paola at the front desk checked me in and clearly explained my copay and insurance information. Alejandra, the dental assistant, was wonderful while taking my X-rays, and I was especially impressed that the office has advanced 3D imaging technology. And then there is Dr. Javidan--absolutely outstanding! She greeted me with a warm, kind smile and has an amazing bedside manner. She made me feel comfortable immediately and explained every step of the procedure as she went along, so I always knew what to expect. She was gentle, thorough, professional, and genuinely caring. From check-in to the completion of my procedure, the experience was seamless. It is not often that you find a practice where every interaction leaves such a positive impression. I would highly recommend Dr. Javidan and her team to anyone looking for exceptional dental care. Definitely deserving of a 5-star review!

If you're a fellow procrastinator with dental anxiety, this is the place. They earned every star. Thanks to Dr. Shirani and the entire team.

Both my husband and my mother have been under her care, and Dr. Chen made the entire process smooth and worry-free for our family. For my husband's root canal, everything went seamlessly, and we were especially impressed by her financial integrity. We received itemized receipts, and as soon as Dr. Chen received the insurance payment, she promptly issued us a full refund for the overage. When it came to my mom, Dr. Chen went above and beyond. She was incredibly patient and, to our wonderful surprise, spoke fluent Mandarin with my mom! Dr. Chen conducted a thorough, comprehensive exam and took the time to clearly explain which teeth could be saved through endodontic care and which ones would need an oral surgeon. She created a detailed treatment plan so my mom fully understood every option. After hours of consultation, my mom ultimately decided not to proceed with the root canal right away. Dr. Chen totally respected her decision without any pressure and even kindly waived our consultation fee. On top of that, her front desk ladies are super friendly and welcoming! If you or your family members need a compassionate, skilled, and honest specialist, Dr. Chen is the absolute best. Highly recommended!

I was extremely nervous coming in because it's my first ever root canal treatment but Dr. Monzavi is great and I felt comfortable during the treatment. He checks on you throughout the treatment to make sure you are OK and that the procedure is painless, then after the treatment thoroughly reviews with you what has been done and what the next steps are. I had 2 appointments so far (due to the severity of the infection) and each of them took less than an hour which is way quicker than what I expected. They scheduled me another follow-up appointment to check on the healing progress. You can tell the people here care about their patients. Overall I would highly recommend this office to my family and friends and anyone else looking to get a root canal done. :)
