Dr. Cortadi is one of a kind! Office space is great and easy to get too. Amazing care when visiting this dental office. Left with a smile on my face literally. Very professional and everything was simple and easy. Thank you again and will be back! read more

The service, a routine visit, with Dr. Cortadi was fine. The problem was billing and complete lack of response despite 15+ follow up calls over several years. Even though I had full insurance through my employer, the office made me pay in full at the time of service, saying they would refund me once insurance paid. When I saw that insurance did pay them, I had to call several times to get a refund check - no one from the office offered to refund me. If I had not been on top of the issue, they would likely have kept both payments. Once they did issue a refund check, the check was uncashable because it had been cancelled. Despite multiple calls, they never reissued the check. So I am out $273 despite having insurance for a routine visit. At every call, the office staff put me off and dodged responsibility. If I ever get a response for the proper reimbursement, I will update my review. read more

As a new patient, I recently had several dentist appointments at Ablantis Dental. Besides my initial exam and cleaning, I needed some old fillings replaced with a crown. Everyone in the Ablantis office was friendly and very good at their job, especially impressive is the dentist / business owner, Dr. Cortadi, who is easy to talk with and an exceptional doctor. Excellent service and care in every way. read more

I don't trust dentists in general; however, Claudia and her team earned my trust and confidence. It's clear they really care about their patients and not just about the money. The office is clean and they have the newest technology compared to other places I've been. As a local who's trust reputation matters, I have zero hesitation recommending this dentist. If you're looking for a dentist this is the place. read more

Very unprofessional and dishonest. Just like another review described, you don't even believe that these ladies call them professionals.... Their demeanors, their tactics, like a group of chatty women but definitely have the ambition to get as much money as they can from everyone who walks in the door. I happened to have some knowledges about dental procedures. I needed to laser off a little bit of my gum for a filling to be done easier, which is called "gingivectomy", and it's a simple procedure, around $120 insurance contracted price. But both the doctor and her billing person shamelessly and blatantly tried to fool me and said it's called "crown lengthening" and wanted to bill the insurance/me for over $600. So shameful. Stay away from them. read more

Without any doubt, Ablantis Dental and specifically Dr Cortadi is the best dental office I have ever been to . She utilizes the latest in high tech equipment to complete dental procedures in a short time. The staff are very welcoming and carry on their duties with smiles. The attitude here is a direct result of the superb all female connection to Dr Cortadi's leadership and professionalism. read more

Great Dentist!! Dr. Cortadi and her team are professional and caring. I'm very grateful to have found this wonderful office.

Dr. Cortadi and her team have been a huge comfort to me as I get older and so do my teeth. She is caring, highly skilled and always there for me when I have problems. My deepest gratitude to her and the wonderful people working with her. read more

Listen..I absolutely hate going to the dentist. I avoid them at all cost because of previous bad experiences. But that's not the case today! I am extremely happy to report that I've had the best experience ever with Dr. C and MJ. They both were extremely thorough, and provided me with important tips to improve my dental game. If you're like me, and are hesitant on going to the dentist, give these guys a try. I promise you'll be satisfied. I've got some work to do but I couldn't be happier with my visit today. I'm looking forward to coming back for my follow up. Yea I just said that.... read more

So happy to have found this dentist near me. The doctor is very knowledgeable and the office is very high-tech. Everybody is very sweet, kind and helpful. read more

Nobody likes going to the dentist. Especially when it's not just an in-and-out cleaning. I had to go in for a filling and a deep cleaning today. Everyone at this office is kind and personable. Dr. Cortadi is fantastic at what she does and thorough in explaining what she is doing. Her staff was involved and helpful throughout the process. Michelle, the hygienist is equally as amazing. All were patient and kind, even taking a moment to massage my jaw knowing it's uncomfortable to keep your mouth open for an extended time. As I said, no one wants to go to the dentist. When you have to go, I highly recommend Albantis! read more

Not only is the dentist rude but she over charged me $200+. I went to her for a problem with my gums and she charged me for work she never did. When I looked the proceedure up and called to say this was not part of the treatment she returned my money but never said a word. I wouldn't hire her to mow my lawn. read more

Since there are so many happy reviews on here, I am going to let you be the judge. My experience really deserves no stars, I find it hard to believe that there aren't more honest reviews here. You will have to go into the office and experience this yourself. Areas of issues: Quality of work Cost of work Billing to customer and insurance False advertising Over referring Excessive "confirm" appointment times Retaliation for canceling upcoming appointments Misuse of credit card numbers I think I'll stop here. If you are customer and don't experience any of this, lucky you! If you are considering this dentist, buyer beware, if you are an existing customer and have experienced some of this and it seems to happen the more you come in, time to write a review about it. read more

I was at this dental office awhile back after I received numerous emails offering a good package for cleaning/x-rays etc., almost on a daily basis. After awhile I finally called and made an appointment. Twice I received a call that I had to change my appointment do to the dental hygienist not being available, twice. I told the lady that called me that if they were to cancel again, I wasn't going to go, I was tired of them keep cancelling me, never once an apology or an explanation that made any since as to why the cancellations were happening. Finally the third time I was given an appointment for 12:15pm and this time they didn't cancel. I arrived at my appointment before noon knowing that even though I was told, surely some paper work was going to be given to me. After I was given the paper work, I filled it out and returned it, the receptionist says to me "someone will see you in half an hour", which would have made the appointment not at 12:15 but way after 12:30 and beyond; however, no explanation as to why so much later from her, so I thought that perhaps the hygienist was running late so I said "oh ok". I guess I will take responsibility for not asking why things were running late, but, it was definitely her job to let me know, I guess she didn't want to speak. Next thing I notice however as I'm sitting in this tiny office, was that the receptionist that I dealt with, disappeared, she got up and went somewhere in the back, then after that, the actual dentist started to leave the office with another lady that also worked there and they were carrying flowers and a balloon and were going to another office close by. I thought that they would be right back and were simply bringing flowers for someone's birthday. Did not see them again either. Next thing that happened however was the icing on the cake as they say, the dental hygienist, the one that I was suppose to see before seeing the dentist was also leaving with another co-worker, and both of them were carrying a lunch in their hands, they looked at me and one of them said "we will be back around 12:30 or so, we are going to launch now", the door will lock automatically but you can still go out if you need to do so, and closed the door, leaving me all alone, with no one else in the office at this point, no one, just me, myself and I. Nothing else was said to me, as if it was all so normal to all of them. I couldn't even believe what was happening, how unprofessional on everyone's part to treat me in such manner, but totally normal to each and everyone of them, including the dentist herself that runs this place. Awful customer service. As soon as I realized that this wasn't a joke on their part, and it wasn't April's fool day, I immediately opened the door, and I stopped one of the ladies and said "are you guys for real?" why was I given an appointment at 12:15 when you guys obviously all know that between noon and 1pm is the time that all of you are going out to lunch? One of them simply replied with no understanding and no apologies, "I'm not the one that schedules the appointment". That was it, and that was all. They kept walking, set on a bench outside the office and started eating their lunch, totally oblivious as to what just happened, and to me, the customer, and couldn't care less about what just happened to me. I went outside for a minute, then went back in and looked at both of this unprofessional and careless people and told them " do me a favor and cancel the appointment for me when you are done with your lunch" I'm not going to stay here and wait until you are all done with your lunch and ready to see me. All they replied "oh, ok". I said "enjoy your lunch" and left. Since over two weeks ago now, no one from that office reached out to me, cared to apologize or explain or anything at all, including and mostly the dentist herself, the owner of this careless establishment, nothing whatsoever. I will never go back to this place of course I don't need to be treated like a second class citizen by anyone, but I just can't believe that starting from the dentist herself, the one that owns this place, to the rude receptionist and the rest of the staff, how anyone can give this place a 4 or 5 star review, when all they deserve is a 0 star if it were available, I can't believe that they chose to ONLY treat me in this manner, and treat everyone else with care. I am so thankful that I didn't have any of them do any work on me, I probably would have left the place with no teeth left in my mouth do to "I thought you wanted me to remove all your teeth" attitude, without consulting me first. Terrible and unprofessional staff all around. My opinion, and definitely an awful and uncalled for experience. The first person to blame is of course the dentist herself for allowing her staff to treat anyone in such a sad and careless manner. Shame on all them. read more

I'm not sure what the other review is talking about -- from personal experience, everything has been very easy and straightforward here. I got my veneers from Dr. Cortadi and couldn't be more pleased. She is very gentle and meticulous -- I could barely feel the shots! Dr. Cortadi also has amazing bedside manners -- very patient and keeps you entertained while she's working. It's clear that she takes great pride in her work; she never rushed me and always seemed happy to see her patients. She addressed all of my concerns and even called me afterwards to make sure that I was doing well! I am absolutely thrilled with my new veneers and working with Dr. Cortadi was a delight. She is hands down the best dentist I have ever had :) read more

Honestly, this is the very best dental offices and dental services that I have ever experienced throughout my whole life. I must say that every detail is perfect and couldn't be better. I have been sticking with this office no matter my insurance or no matter their location. They used to be in Solana Beach a long time ago. I was less than 5 minutes drive. Now I am downtown and they moved to Encinitas and I will make the drive. It's worth it. I briefly shopped around and spent a few years switching dentists after every appointment until I found Ablantis and Dr. Cordati and her crew. 5 stars. When they moved from Solana Beach to Encinitas, they also changed what insurances they accept and I had to go through the slow and painful process to switch my insurance in order to continue with Ablantis. It is totally worth it. It can be challenging to get appointments however whenever I was having a hard time finding an opening, they went above and beyond to accommodate me. I can tell that they are passionate about what they do and truly care about me. Grateful. read more

I greatly appreciate Dr Cortadi's Cerec Crown services--my only would wish--that they had a smoother texture. I appreciate Dr Cortadi's integrity, work ethic and advanced dental skills. The entire staff is very friendly and makes me feel comfortable when I am there. I have very sensitive teeth and was fearful to get my teeth cleaned from several bad experiences at other dentists, but so far they have been very good at keeping the treatment pain free. read more

Dr. Cortardi, My 2 daughters have their dental care with Dr. Cortadi and they really appreciate the personal attention, care and explanation what is going on with the treatment. She is caring as well as the staff. Very easy to make an appointment and always on time. read more

Claudia is amazing, very friendly and great at her job. Her staff is professional, caring, and accommodating to your questions and scheduling needs. I go in for my routine teeth cleanings and every time over the last 4 years it's been a pleasant experience. I highly recommend Claudia and her team. read more

Dr. Cortadi and her team are outstanding. I just saw her today for a filling which was an unexpectedly soothing and calming event. The whole experience took only 25 minutes and was completely painless. She even had me laughing most of the time. And I'm terrified of needles! I was blown away at the level of service and professionalism. I highly recommend Dr. Cortadi for all your dental needs. read more

Claudia and her staff are the best. She has designed numerous crowns and veneers for me, and recently provided me with a hydrogen peroxide based gel treatment for deep pockets. I was able to reduce all but a few 4 and 5's to 1,2, and 3's by using the gel that they recommended in my custom trays every day for 15 minutes. I get compliments every day for how beautiful my teeth are. All of the women who work there are professional, courteous, and smart about the latest most effective ways to restore and maintain health in my teeth and gums. They are also very personable and confident and take what could be a fearful situation and turn it into a relaxed experience. I can tell when Claudia is in the zone because she hums when she is totally focused! read more

Most stellar experience I have had at a dentist office in my 29 years of life. Everyone from the moment I walked into the office gave me the most courteous and genuine care and friendliness that one could ever ask for. My cleaning, mouth examination, and whole experience was an absolutely wonderful experience. Thank you team!! You ROCK! :) read more

I have been a client of Dr. Cortadi for close to a year now. I visited her office for the first time with what I would consider to be a mouth full of problems. She took great care to make sure that we not only fixed the issues but also addressed what was causing them. I have since returned for multiple treatments and would recommend her and her staff to family and friends. This past week I went in for a routine teeth cleaning and checkup and experienced the most thorough and enjoyable service from a fantastic dental assistant (I am terrible with names but thank you!). read more

Sadly we (family of 5 including 89 year old grandfather) leave a bad review after 14 years of service. Knowing patients this long should warrant fair service. The over charges we received and then questioned by us, were ignored. Bad business practices lead to bad reviews. read more

Dr. Cortadi and her staff exceeded my expectations! They were very professional, accommodating, organized and overall a really nice group of people. It was my first visit to Dr. Cortadi and it was an emergency since I had broken a molar. She diagnosed the problem, developed a plan and even cemented my tooth so I could still partake in a work event the following day. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and efficient Dentist! read more

Been coming to Ablantis for a few years now. Honest and efficient people. Fantastic service. Highly recommend.

While this dental office does decent work, the way they run their business sucks. Three times my family had fairly major dental work done here, but they didn't tell us how major it would be until they started. Then they told us how much it would cost! We couldn't even afford it. This is the kind of thing that we should report to the better business bureau, but at least this is a good start. Also, they supposedly sent a referral for oral surgery for two of us in the family, but it never went through. We called two months later, and they said, "Of course we sent it." They didn't even bother to check to make sure. Then when we called Delta three months later, they said that a referral was never sent. Don't go here. The good dental work is not worth the hassle of the horrible customer service. read more

For the past 5 years I have had Claudia Cortadi as my dentist. She is full service and offers excellent dentistry .Her pricing is reasonable and she works with your insurance company to help defer the cost to the customer. I have recommended her to all my friends. Her dental hygienist is one of the best for cleaning the teeth. I am a very satisfied customer. read more

Staff is professional and super friendly. I've had a fantastic experience each time I've had my teeth cleaned. The dentist and hygienist do a superb job. I highly recommend Dr. Cortadi and her team! read more

Dr. Cortadi and all of her staff are excellent. I am amazed that they have never been late or had to reschedule an appointment in the 7 years I have been a client of Ablantis Dental. They don't try to oversell services as many dentists will try to do. 5 stars. read more

Start off by saying I hate the dentist usually! Went in to start the procedure of fixing my underbite. They were soooo nice and actually made my visit really fun and personalized to my own needs! If your searching for a good dentist look no further! Thanks Ablantis! read more

I absolutely love Dr. Cortadi and her staff at Ablantis. From the front desk to the dental chair they make you feel right at home. I had not been to the dentist in awhile so needless to say I was very nervous and within five minutes I knew this was going to be my dentist for life. I had a cleaning and went back for some aesthetic teeth contouring and I have to say I am so excited. I have a new smile in less than 2 hours and I already feel more confident than ever. Dr. Cortadi is very meticulous and definitely keeps you entertained with her vibrant personality. The office was very accommodating to my financial situation and I did not feel pressured or forced to do anything at all. Thank you to the whole staff at Ablantis, i'm happy I found a new dentist office that is honest, sincere, and really cares about their patients. read more

BEST dentist out there! Dr. Cortadi and her Staff are amazing at what they do, they care for you and try to help any way possible. This was my first time at the dentist in years, and i was frightened from the begining. Dr. Cortadi is so sweet and caring she made me feel at ease. Definitely recommending her to my friends and family! read more

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Cortadi as a dentist. My mouth is in much better shape after seeing her a couple of (long) times. I had some issues with billing, but the accountant was happy to work with me to fix them. read more

DDS Claudia is such a good dentist that I take my whole family to her office for regular check ups. My wife just had a root canal and you should see the techno-tooth maker. AMAZING! Thank you Claudia and crew! read more

Dr. Cortadi is a wonderful dentist- knowledgeable and kind. Dr. C creates beautiful Cerac crowns the same day. The staff is friendly staff & scheduling is easy. The office and all equipment is clean and state of the art. I have recommended Ablantis Dental to my friends and family, and they were also very pleased. read more

I've been going to Dr. Cortadi for years. My whole family, in fact, goes to her. Even though we've moved further south and the trip to her office takes a little more time, we still continue to go to her for dental care because she is that good. Her staff, as well, is professional, knowledgable, and courteous. Our teeth are in good hands. read more

Great dentist and such a friendly welcoming environment and staff. It's like enjoying yourself with close friends. Dr. Cortadi does fantastic work, has a warm and friendly manner and her staff is great. I always enjoy seeing them. read more

I've been going to Dr. Cortadi for almost seven years and have absolutely always had tremendous service. Her work is excellent, and she is friendly and professional. I'm not the easiest customer, and not (was not) particularly fond of going to the dentist in general, but she has made me more comfortable and confident about having work done. 5 stars. read more

Honestly I hate going to the dentist, I have switched dentists countless times due to various reasons. Now that I have found Ablantis Dental I do not plan to ever switch my dentist again. The staff and Dentist go above and beyond to make sure your comfortable and not in pain plus they're very gentle compared to every other place iv been, a dentist visit is never 'fun' but I would recommend this wonderful office to anyone looking for a great dentist. I have finally found a dentist office that's a keeper. Dr, staff and atmosphere are all A+ and they do quality work along with their awesome attitudes. Thank you read more
