Great endodontist. No pain and quick healing. Also, the infection above that tooth has healed.

Can only speak for experience with Dr Bokhour not Moattar Pretty unpleasant and short I can live with --if your skilled as a professional I'll take good over nice . However a year later when my regular dentist noticed a file left in my canal after an X-ray-- after her work I was shocked. Not because it happened-- as it's a possible result sometimes from the procedure especially tricky canals but because she never told me about it - then doubled down weeks later when I called and said that yes she did let me know Yea I would just forget someone telling me that there will be a piece of metal in my mouth for the rest of my life 1)No bedside manner 2) Questionable skills 3) Then the lack of taking accountability for your own actions as a health care provider Strike 3 read more

Ali is great! Very accommodating and professional. He is the guy to go to if you need a root canal!

I was sent by my primary care dentist to assess if I needed a root canal or surgery. I have to say that Dr Farinaz Bokhour, DDS is the worst dental professional I have ever seen. She is uncaring, unprofessional and almost delights in causing pain. When asking her questions she makes snide remarks and uses sarcasm to belittle you. I filled out all the paperwork before getting in the chair to be worked on including how I would pay. But while sitting in the dental chair with my mouth numb, she brings me my jacket and says, "we need you to pay with your credit card before we begin." I'm a retired person with very good credit but have never been so humiliated by a medical professional. After doing multiple tests, scans and X-rays, she worked for an hour on the tooth trying to do the root canal and finally gave up and said, your tooth is cracked and this won't work. You'll have to see a dental surgeon. When I asked why it took so long to figure this out, she says sarcastically, "do I look like a fortune teller." Unbelievable!! So I got charged over $1400 for something she should have been able to figure out in much less time, tests and pain. At one point when giving me the anesthesia shots I almost jumped out of the chair in pain. She says, good, that means I got the right spot and they will work. No "I'm sorry" or compassion at all. She is mean and unprofessional!! Very traumatic experience!! It's a wonder she is allowed to practice! I don't know anything about her husband, Dr Moattar, but she is terrible! The next day I went to Sonoma County Oral Surgery office and had a very good experience with a very professional surgeon! read more

Dr. Moattar and his team in Santa Rosa made what I expected to be a stressful visit surprisingly easy. He explained everything clearly, took the time to answer my questions, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. The staff was professional and welcoming, and the office had a calm, clean atmosphere. The treatment itself went smoothly and was much more comfortable than I anticipated. I appreciated the level of care and attention to detail. If you need to see an endodontist, Dr. Moattar is a solid choice. read more

Dr. Moattar and Dr. Bokhour are, without a doubt, the most skilled and knowledgeable endodontists in Sonoma County. I say this after getting two other opinions from different specialists--none came close to the level of care, expertise, and communication I experienced here. I had a very complex tooth issue that most dentists wouldn't touch, and I was determined not to lose it. Dr. Moattar took the time to clearly explain the pros and cons, and thanks to his calm confidence and excellent communication skills, I felt informed and empowered to move forward with saving the tooth. He has the precision, expertise, and reassurance you want when dealing with something this delicate. The entire team is fantastic--professional, efficient, and kind. The office itself is clean, modern, and focused on delivering top-notch care without any fluff. We're incredibly lucky to have Dr. Moattar and Dr. Bokhour practicing here in Santa Rosa. I can't recommend them highly enough. read more

I had a deeply awful experience with Dr. Moattar. I found him a horribly unclear communicator, rude, deeply uncaring, and not about patient care. Before setting the appointment, I asked a very clear question about the scope of what he could do, to see if it would meet my needs. He said that it was worth coming in for him to take a look. And a second time I asked the receptionist, who said she asked him, and he said that yes he could help me with those needs. BUT at the appointment, the first thing he said was that what I wanted wasn't in the scope of what he did, period. Adamant, arms crossed! Wow. Then he should've said that on the phone beforehand! But, instead of taking responsibility for that or caring about patient communication, he was quite patronizing and arrogant, as if I was supposed to know the right answer and being scolded for being a problem. His thinking was unclear. When I asked, "Is X within the scope of what you do?" he responded that he couldn't tell me about my situation without an exam. Those are two different things! He got very clear on his scope after I went to the trouble of coming for the appointment. Maybe if I were just an obedient patient, he might've behaved better, I don't know. But I'm sure that there have to be better options than this! read more

Incredible experience with getting a root canal treatment. Aliraad was kind, patient and had me feeling calm throughout this entire process. Getting. Root canal is not fun but the office and all of the staff were incredible kind! read more

Dr. Moattar is extremely professional, caring, and skilled. He explained everything clearly, made the procedure comfortable, and delivered excellent results. I highly recommend him for anyone needing endodontic care. read more

After my root canal I actually thought to myself, "this was not a terrible experience." Dr. Moattar is exceptionally thorough, providing step by step guidance throughout the procedure. The periodic check-ins to assess my comfort were reassuring that my well being was being tended to along the way. I was even complimented on my humming technique as a way to relax and breathe through the part of the procedure I feared most. As someone with extensive dental work from a variety of practitioners, I not only recommend Dr. Moattar without reservation, I will only be returning to them when the occasion to do so arises again. read more

The Endodontist Clinic is of Dr. Moattar & his wife - Farinaaz Bokhour. Their clinic was referred to me by a dentist Dr. Farid Bashti who we had called up during an emergency, from the list of network doctors recommended by United Healthcare. On visiting Dr. Bashti due to a sudden and extreme intolerable pain in my molars, he asked us to visit this place. On the phone we were explicitly told (in view of the diagnosis received from the Dentist) that the appointment is for an immediate root canal treatment on the day to be done by Dr. Moattar, to be preceded by a compulsory 3D X-ray (3D Xray cost of $200 is not covered by the insurance). We visited the Endodontist, the lady prepared me for the root canal (took my BP and other parameters), did the 3D X-ray and then called in Dr. Moattar. Dr. Moattar came in, examined my teeth and the X-rays and then stated that he will not be able to do the root canal that day and not until next 2 weeks. I was really surprised, firstly, coz I was in extreme pain and were here coz the appointment had been given by their clinic for a RCT to be done that day. Secondly, coz they had already prepped me and now the Doctor outta blue refuses to do it - for another 2 weeks as he is super busy as per him and thirdly, coz he himself saw that it was a deep cavity and needed an immediate treatment. To add to that, he asked me who would I like to get it done from - him or his wife, Dr. Bokhour (as if I was in any position to tell the difference between who was going to provide a better treatment; I was a first timer with them both and she was not even there at the clinic at that time). Having paid $200 for a compulsory X-ray already and being numb with pain, I was left with little choice but to come back to whatever date they gave and get done from whichever doctor they can make available. As I was approaching the date (enduring great pain and sensitivity all this while), I was given a call four times by Valerie, their staff lady, to change the appointment timings and dates. And to add to that, when I met Dr. Bokhour on the date of the treatment, she was very upset with me - coz on my last call with Valerie I had to finally request her to not change the appointment dates & timings, any more. Dr. Bokhour was stern, told me it seems my tooth was cracked already and maybe after the treatment too (signatures and undertaking were taken to absolve her from responsibility) the tooth may need an extraction. She did the procedure in a very unempathic way, it was very painful too (not experienced dentists to be so cold ever before) and then told me that sorry she was wrong, the tooth was never cracked. Now that's displaying highly irresponsible behaviour yet again! Post RCT too, I was experiencing a lot of pain. After the pain killers got finished, I called her clinic to make me speak with her. She was yet again rude and almost scolding like. I followed whatever advise she gave and experiencing pain even after 10 days when I called her reception again (left 3 messages for her to call back) she did not call me. After 8 days of my last call she finally decided to leave a voice mail saying she has been very busy, by then I had already decided to show another more competent, empathetic and patient Endodontist. Please do not visit or seek treatment from Dr. Moattar and/or Dr. Bokhour. My experience says, you will only get to be going in circles (while already going through your very bad tooth pain). Not recommended at all. read more

Good quality care. Office very organized and clean and friendly. Doctors very knowledgeable and skilled. Really listened to my needs. I highly recommend. read more

My dentist referred me to Dr. Moattar as I needed two root canals asap before leaving on a vacation. I arrived at Dr. M's office the same day, and was greeted by his office staff, who were very friendly and helpful. Dr. Moattar actually fit me in for the procedure at the end of that day (before leaving on his own vacation). His assistant stayed late as well. Dr. M. is great at his craft because he loves what he does. His assistant said the opportunity to do two at the same time was like best day ever for him! I plan to refer all my friends and family to Dr. Moattar if they need a root canal. I had zero pain after the procedure or next day. Hands down best care. read more

I was referred to Dr. Moattar with excruciating tooth pain and severe swelling in my face.

Doctor Moattar and his team not only deliver a highly professional care, but also make you feel comfortable and welcome to their office. During my procedure I was given updates of what was going to be done, and how much longer to the end. Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Bokhour was amazing and so gentle. She could fit me in her schedule the same day I called their office! I had root canal done many years ago and remember it being a long and uncomfortable process. This appointment with Dr. Bokhour was not nearly anything like my previous experience. It went so smooth and like a breeze. Her office called me the next day to see how I was doing. I highly recommend this practice and Dr. Bokhour! read more

My dentist referred me to Dr. Moattar because I needed two root canals. Both teeth were badly infected. There was bone loss in the jaw. She told me she could probably save one, but was doubtful about the other. We decided to fix both. Today, six months after the surgery, I came back for for a follow-up exam. Both teeth are healthy. The jaw bone is growing back. I've been pain free the entire time. I am grateful for the fine job she did. Highly recommended. read more

I came in last April for a procedure and the staff here have made the whole process a breeze.

Thank you and your staff! read more

I needed a root canal and my dentist referred me to Dr. Moattar. His office was able to schedule me for the next day, and they called me with the details of insurance coverage in advance so I knew what was covered. Going in, I was nervous, however the staff and Dr. Moattar put me at ease explaining in detail the procedure and how long it would take. The next day I received a call from his staff and another by Dr. Moattar to check up on me. This is by far the best service I've ever received and I highly recommend him and his team if you need to see an Endodontist read more

Not friendly. Pompous. Bad care. Hypocritical. Not attentive. Bad listener. Don't go here.

My regular dentist believed that I needed a root canal but did not have the equipment to do the 3D imaging necessary to finalize that determination, nor was she qualified to do that procedure. She referred me to Doctors Moattar and Bokhour's office. I was able to get an appointment promptly. The treatment I received was excellent. I had some concerns, as this was the second root canal on this tooth and it is the anchor tooth for a bridge. Dr Bokhour answered all my questions very clearly and patiently. Her treatment was gentle and professional and the results of the treatment have been excellent. I am grateful for the excellent care I received. read more

I saw Dr Bokhour for root canal treatment today. I have had a lot of bad experiences with dental treatment, especially root canals. It has given me a lot of anxiety around the dentist. I'm also 20 weeks pregnant. Dr. Bokhour and her assistant Amber, were absolute angels. They were very compassionate and thorough. Dr. Bokhour made sure I was pain free and comfortable during every step of the treatment. She was extremely gentle and kind throughout the treatment. She was quiet and swift with her drill which I appreciate because the noise can certainly add to the stress and anxiety of root canal treatment. She went over any and all expectations of how I would feel over the next few days and even looked at the neighboring tooth on x ray and found an infection that she is going to treat. Her dental assistant made sure I was comfortable, and kept my mouth clean and dry during the whole treatment while assisting the doctor. They were very mindful of my pregnancy. Obviously not a procedure anyone wants to have to get done, but I'm very happy I found such a compassionate, gentle endodontist with great bedside manner. I also have to commend the front desk staff. Most medical offices have cold dismissive staff. The front desk staff here is so welcoming and friendly. I was immediately greeted with a warm welcome smile. The woman at the desk was very helpful, polite, kind and discreet. read more

I've been to many dentists and specialists. I found that Dr. Moattar is good at his craft b/c he loves what he does. He genuinely cares about his patients. If you are interested in a long lasting treatment by a perfectionist medical professional, he is your man. read more

I needed to get a root canal and it was my first one so I was fairly anxious about it. The front desk was super helpful in getting me all set up, there is not much paperwork at all and they will tell you prices and what your insurance covers and what you will need to pay outta pocket before bringing you in the back. Once I got to the back the Dental assistant was super sweet and comforting. My whole root canal experience was super good, I was numbed and did not feel anything through the entire time. They kept me updated and reassured me through it. Overall great experience! I would definitely recommend coming here for your root canal, especially if it's your first one ! read more

Skillful and experienced endodontist. Highly recommend him if quality of work is your priority.

I went into Dr. Moattar's office on a multiple visits for root canals. Each time, I was very delighted and satisfied with the work done on my teeth.
