I'm on Medi-Cal, and I think that plays into my experience. I went in for a routine cleaning. The…read morehygienist started with x-rays, using the huge plastic things that hurt like crazy. Seeing that I was in pain (those things dig into the upper palette), the doctor stepped in and used bite wings, standing directly next to the x-ray machine while he gave orders to the hygienist to operate the x-ray machine. No problem for me, but it seems weird for the doctor to expose himself to x-rays like that on a daily basis. I at least had the lead bib; the doctor had no protection and was standing right next to the x-ray. Onto the cleaning, which didn't amount to much. They didn't clean my teeth. The hygienist polished them, but did nothing about tartar. No scraping, which I'm accustomed to at all my dental visits. The doctor told me that I "didn't have plaque" which seems suspicious to me, as I hadn't seen a dentist in about 8 months at that point. I *always* have tartar that needs to be scraped off, and my understanding is that tartar is what plaque becomes. I do take care of my teeth but tartar has always been a problem for me. The hygienist seemed new to the job and the doctor was extremely dismissive of my medical condition which is why I'm on Medi-Cal. They scheduled me for a full-cost cleaning for 6 months later, which I'm about to cancel because I simply don't trust this place. Again, maybe it's because I'm on Medi-Cal. If you've got money, your experience may be different.

I saw the stellar reviews on Google and decided to schedule an appointment for a cleaning. Here is…read moremy personal experience with this service. I believe Dr. David Garate is a very capable dentist however I think there is a practice to overbook his services to the extent of causing extensive delays to his patients. I originally scheduled a routine cleaning but was advised to get a deep cleaning. I inquired about braces and was told I needed a frenectomy before the braces were put on. I followed through with the regular cleaning, the deep cleaning, and the frenectomy. This process took several weeks to complete. Several times I was made to wait to get my procedures started as a hurried Dr. Garate was busy finishing work on previous clients. In one particular instance, once my procedure started, he was so frazzled that he numbed the wrong side of my mouth with the numbing needle. As you can imagine, this is a very painful experience which involves stabbing you in the nerve of your gums with a long needle and injecting the numbing solution. He apologized profusely for doing this. He gave me some Starbucks gift cards in an attempt to make amends however the insult remains. This should have never happened and was completely unprofessional, avoidable and unacceptable. However the most traumatic experience came during the frenectomy. Dr. Garate applied the numbing gel to my gums and let it sit less than 60 seconds before jabbing me with the numbing needle. As it was previously explained to me by one of his assistants, they leave the gel on for far much longer in order to help ease the pain of jabbing you with the numbing needle. Dr. Garate wasted no such time and I felt EVERYTHING. Then came the procedure of the frenectomy, which uses a laser to cut through the muscle tissue in between the front of your two front teeth and behind it. It is literally burning your flesh. When giving post-op instructions for the pain once the numbness wore off, Dr. Garate told me to simply take Ibuprofen. Mind you, I just had the inside of my mouth burned for over 30 minutes. When I tell you this was some of the most excruciating pain I've ever felt in my 48 years on this planet once the numbness wore off...it brought me to tears over several days. I lost 5 pounds due to my inability to eat comfortably due to the pain. I had to call in to be seen way in advance of my scheduled follow up to get relief. Once seen, Dr. Garate halfway admonished me for taking over the counter pain relief remedies such as Orajel when he left me to my own devices as he could only think to suggest Ibuprofen in the aftermath of the frenectomy. Ibuprofen could not touch the pain that ensued from the burn wounds to my inner mouth after this procedure. He then filled stronger pain relief medications on my behalf to my local pharmacist and provided vitamin E pills from the office that he instructed to burst and rub on the area. My question is this, he obviously has done this procedure numerous times in the past. Why not anticipate the pain level and provide prescriptions at the conclusion of the procedure? If not that, why not instruct on the Vitamin E remedy in the least? Why send a burn victim home with dreams of Ibuprofen? Why put a valued patient through this painful ordeal unnecessarily? What amount of Starbucks gift cards could Perfect Smiles distribute to me to make up for what they put me through???

Office staff would make my appts without my requests. They would call while I'm at work saying there's an opening right away and expect me to just drop my stuff at work and leave. I left 2 messages back on the first week of June to schedule appts for first week of July during my vacation and since then, I've received no callback. Now, if I was to get a callback regarding appts for the first or 2nd week of July, they'll most likely say there's nothing opened and that'll be because of the office staff of not responding to messages. Of course they'll say they never got my messages in June but that's not the case. I've been interacting with them at the same number for the past couple months. Again, great Dentist. Poor office workers. Dr needs to have a talk with them.

One thing that always stands out is the anesthesia. I have never once felt pain during an injection. If you have ever been afraid on the dental chair, you know exactly how much that matters.

This place is horrific. I thought i was the only person but…read morei first looked at other reviews and they do the same thing 1) they overbook their patients then they cant find any time for them as they end up being booked for the whole year!! And good luck if they drained tour insurance already for this "whole appointment evaluation" 2) they will look for all ways to drain your insurance and of course the first appointment your time will be wasted because they will say "this is only evaluation" so expect to take your annual PTO off for their highness to actually get any clean up done! Oh and good luck finding an appointment that can actually work because they close their last patient at 3. Maybe they shouldnt do business My story: I requested an appointment for cleaning ( or cavities shall they find ) they told me uh oh we are going to take the entire first appointment for just evaluation and shall you need anything you will need another appointment. I said B.S - then i said ok.. what is your available times for a second appointment because for sure i will need at least cleaning/deep cleaning. She was booked for the rest of the year and found me 1-2 appointments that absolutely dont work with my schedule. So i requested to cancel the first appointment because whats the point! That was more than 40 hours in advance. They kept saying cancellation fee $60 . Now they keep sending me the statement of $60 despite the fact thst they know!!! They are the ones that cant find any available appointments for their clients. Taking my business out of this place and fighting the $60 because if they were any respectful place they would have waived it instead of begging for a $60. Stay away. Also they do want to find all reasons to drain the hell out of your insurance and more !
