I am extremely disappointed with the care I received at Barosum Dental in Upland. My experience…read moreleft me feeling unheard, misdiagnosed, and ultimately traumatized. While I was out of town on July 12, 2026, I developed severe pain on the lower right side of my mouth. As soon as I returned, I scheduled an emergency appointment for July 15. I also had a previously scheduled deep cleaning appointment for July 16. During my emergency visit, the female dentist appeared to minimize my concerns. Instead of focusing on the area where I was experiencing pain, she asked whether I had seen an endodontist for a referral from a year earlier and questioned a shadow in my gums that had existed for over 30 years on the opposite side of my mouth. I requested X-rays, and a 360-degree scan was performed. After reviewing the images, she told me everything looked fine, that I had no cavities, gave me Sensodyne toothpaste for tooth sensitivity, and said I was cleared to proceed with my deep cleaning the following day. Later that same day, the office coordinator called and told me they wanted me to see the endodontist before my cleaning. I went to the appointment, and within five minutes the endodontist identified a cavity. My primary dentist confirmed the finding and recommended that my wisdom tooth be extracted. I was extremely upset that my condition had been missed during my emergency visit. I asked to speak with the female dentist who had evaluated me, but she was unavailable. I scheduled the extraction for July 17, 2026. Because I had previously had a successful experience using nitrous oxide during another tooth extraction, I requested it again to help manage my anxiety. I was numbed for the procedure and was told I was receiving nitrous oxide, but I never felt its effects. I noticed the dental assistant was on the phone for much of the procedure, and it appeared that no one ensured the nasal cannula was properly positioned. I informed both the oral surgeon and the assistant that I did not feel like I was receiving the nitrous oxide, but my concerns were dismissed. I remained anxious throughout the procedure, and the extraction was ultimately unsuccessful. I left the office emotional, traumatized, and deeply disappointed. This was the worst dental experience I have ever had. As healthcare providers, listening to patients is essential. I repeatedly expressed my concerns and felt they were ignored every step of the way. I will not be returning to this office. I also plan to verify that my insurance was not billed for procedures that were not completed, including the deep cleaning and the unsuccessful tooth extraction. I hope this review encourages the office to improve communication, patient care, and attention to patient concerns so that others do not have a similar experience.

I understand that they can only take you up a few levels and I would be ok with that if that's actually what I got. Even the dentist said that he knew it didn't come out as white as he thought it would and I had to make another appointment in 3 months for a touch up. Not only that, but he put the gel they use to protect the gums on the top of my teeth (I don't know if it was an accident) and now there is an arch on the top that wasn't whitened at all, which looks even more yellow than before because of the contrast. My teeth are very patchy now, with more yellow spots than white. I'm so upset, this was my first time getting my teeth whitened after being insecure my whole life and now I don't even know if I want to go through the whole process again not knowing if it will work.

Rose in the office also was VERY neglient on calling for her crown. It should have been weeks from the time she got her root canal to the time she got her crown. NOPE. After months of pain, calling the dentist they finally made an appt and the Endodontist said her tooth was UNSAVABLE and she had to get it taken out!!!!! So she lost her permanent tooth and of course they wanted her to get an implant. Her other root canal never got a crown either. After months of waiting for it , on the day she was suppose to get her crown Upland Dental cancelled her appointment and said they could no longer see her!!! These people are the most unprofessional people/business I have ever seen. They wanted to do thousands of dollars of unnecessary stuff of which I said "No we will just get necessary things done first. Wow, FRAUD ALERT.

I've received compliments from other dentists at how well it has healed. I still retain my increased range of motion with is a huge blessing. I followed his post op instructions to stretch it daily and because of that I did not need any revisions. The package came with a few follow up visits and if any revision is needed he includes that too. Besides the numbing the procedure was painless and recovery was not more painful that what is expected. Recovery does kinda suck but is worth it and the bulk of the pain goes away in 1 week. He uses a lazer to do the frenectomy and I believe this helped me heal so well. If you need a dental procedure of any kind I highly recommend him. Dr Mand is the Man!

I would highly recommend this office!

Updated review:…read more Hello again fellow yelpers, I am updating my last review because I feel like I wasn't entirely fair. I recently left this office and had a great experience. I am, self admittedly, bad at getting dental work done. I have sensitive teeth, I need a lot of sedation, I sweat uncontrollably due to anxiety, and my tongue has a mind of its own. Dr. Ramos and her assistant made sure that I was completely fine at all times and even put the fan on me for sweating and had a sign for of the pain was too much. It is hard to find a good dentist, but I believe this will be my new one. I apologize if I was rash or pushy, that's on me. Now, I know that Upland Smile Center is the place to go if you need work done. The operation wasn't painless obviously due to my personal, let's say, eccentricities, but it was made as comfortable as possible. I was even seen a lot sooner than I was supposed to be, so I am grateful. Thanks again and see you next time!

Along with the pain, I developed swelling in the area and was concerned that something was wrong. When I called the office seeking help, I was repeatedly advised to find another dentist instead of being offered an emergency evaluation or a timely appointment. As an established patient who had received treatment at this office, I found this response frustrating and disappointing. Despite explaining my symptoms, the earliest appointment offered was about a week away. Because I felt my condition needed more immediate attention, I ultimately sought treatment elsewhere. I also called the doctor's emergency number for guidance but did not receive a response until the following day. When I was finally contacted, I was told to call the office, which I had already done.
