    I have been coming here for over 15 years. I originally looked for another dentist for a second…read moreopinion, since the previous doctor was trying to tell me I had eight cavities! Eight! I think not! I scheduled am exam here with x-rays, and, guess what? Dr. Contreras said everything looked fine and I just needed a cleaning. Go figure. I was nearly scammed for insurance money, if I had believed the other office. They were very aggressive in pushing their payment plans and making an appointment. This is what made me seek a second opinion, and I have stayed with Dr. Contreras ever since. He has a gentle chairside manner, and tells you exactly what you need, never upsellng you anything like deep cleanings, teeth whitenings, etc. They take only certain I insurances, so I missed a year when I lost my insurance. This is a very efficient, reliable, trustworthy dentist and office. Always get a second opinion when in doubt...I am very happy coming here. I will be very sad if he retires!

    This is a sad and unfortunate situation…read more Dr. Contreras is actually a good dentist. He is kind and gentle, everything one wants from a dentist. The problem is his staff - in particular a woman named DEBBIE who is mean and ugly to patients (to me and my family) and you feel like you're speaking with an IRS collection agent. She has created a nonprofessional environment -- that after being with Dr. Contreras for six years, we have decided we must find another dentist that offers professional staffing. I wish with all my heart I could recommend Dr. Contreras but I don't want anyone to go through the torture of Debbie. Her tone is condescending, and she speaks over you while you try to talk. She calls you an hour before your appointment to tell you how much money you MUST pay at that visit to receive services -- something never communicated beforehand in previous conversations in making the appointment until that moment. Unprofessional to the core. This is my second review. 3 Stars on 2/16/21 -- now it goes down to ONE STAR because the good doctor has not seen fit to create a better staffing environment - that is on him.

    Having extensive dental work done can be stressful under any circumstances, but it can feel…read moreespecially overwhelming when you are doing it in a foreign country and placing your trust in a doctor, a team, and a dental lab you do not know personally. From the beginning, Dr. Manriquez and his team made that process feel much more manageable. At my first visit, they took the time to listen to my concerns, explain the treatment plan, and answer my questions clearly. I never felt rushed or pressured. Dr. Manriquez was professional, thorough, and attentive throughout the process, and his calm approach gave me confidence in the decisions being made. I also want to give special recognition to Angeles, Dr. Manriquez's assistant, and the office manager Citlali. Both were incredibly caring, patient, and attentive to detail. They consistently made sure I was comfortable, understood what was happening, and had my questions addressed. Their warmth and professionalism made a real difference during a process that can otherwise feel intimidating. What stood out most was the team's communication and willingness to take the time needed to get things right. They made me feel like a person rather than simply another appointment, and that level of care is not something to take for granted. The entire office was organized, welcoming, and responsive. By the end of the process, I felt genuinely comfortable with the care I was receiving and grateful that I had placed my trust in Dr. Manriquez, Angeles, Citlali, and the rest of the team. I would highly recommend Dr. Manriquez's practice to anyone seeking thoughtful, high-quality dental care, especially to those who may feel hesitant about receiving treatment while away from home.

The place has great service and you don't have to wait like other dentists offices in the US. They get straight to work but are still patient when it comes to their craft. My Spanish is not good but I was glad to know the front desk was very helpful! I have dental anxiety and have low pain tolerance. I'm not sure what kind of trick Dr Metzler does but I didn't even feel the numbing shot! That instantly got ride of my anxiety and calm my nerves! It was 100% pain free, something I have never experienced before! Highly recommended!

    Great team, very friendly and good communicators, fair pricing, and a great front desk (they even…read morelent me a phone charger while I was waiting... It's the little things...). I've been a client for for about 18 months and found that they stand behind their work too. After I had a tooth repaired and had a small cosmetic issue (minor chip), they repaired it at no cost again since it was recently done and to me that shows integrity and pride in their work. Opportunity to improve: it's a small office and they have small office systems. I wish they had online portal for managing payments, scheduling, and retrieving records/receipts. I would also love to store my HSA card with them (I always forget to use it there) but they don't have the ability to archive credit card securely so they don't archive them at all. (I appreciate that policy and then looking out for my financial details, but wish they would have a secure system so I could spend those HSA dollars more easily).

    This dentist off is highly efficient, friendly and professional. The receptionists are very…read morefriendly and knowledgeable. I had a bad experience at another dentist in IB in which I Waited 2 hours to be seen and ended up walking out. I called IB family dentistry and told them I was in pain and they offered to get me in the same day but due to my time constraints I was in a few days. After filling out paperwork I was in and out in 30 minutes including x rays. Unfortunately I needed a root canal and instead of waiting, they referred me out to a very nice specialist to get me out of pain ASAP! Dr Robinson does a good job of explaining what's going on and the plan of care. A good dentist is a hard thing to find and I have definitely found my regular dentist.

    I came to Dr. Rahbar with a discolored tooth that had been bothering me for quite some time,…read morelooking for a solution. I was a bit nervous about getting veneers, but I decided to trust Dr. Rahbar's recommendation to improve my overall smile rather than just treat the one tooth...and I couldn't be happier with the results. I had seen the before and after photos and knew it was going to look great, but the final result exceeded all of my expectations. I'm amazed at how natural and beautiful my veneers look. I definitely smile with much more confidence now, and I'm incredibly happy with the final result. A special shoutout to the entire Dentique team. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the process. They made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Brandi checked in after each appointment to make sure I was doing well and not experiencing any pain or issues. I truly couldn't be happier with both the results and the overall experience. If you're searching for the right dental studio, I hope this review helps, you'll be in great hands at Dentique!

Since I walked in I felt so welcomed by the staff. Brandi and Jess make you feel like family and always put your needs first before anything. Dr. Rahbar explained everything perfectly and made sure I was comfortable with my treatment plan. They have so many different affordable options adjusted to your needs too! I got 10 upper porcelain veneers with gum contouring, and my smile was changed within 3-4 appts ! Please don't overthink and come here if you want your life and confidence to change forever! I will forever be grateful! I'm a loyal Dentique patient and go every 4 months for my cleanings with Paris! 10000/10 again!
