I absolutely love Dr. Allred and his amazing team! This is truly the best dental office I've ever been to, and I've visited quite a few over the years. They use the latest technology for cleanings, X-rays, and scheduling, making every visit smooth and efficient. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. I can't recommend them enough--if you're looking for a new dentist, this is the place to go! read more

Dr Allred and his staff are excellent and I highly recommend them to new customers. They are a highly professional and ethical dental practice and are extremely customer oriented. I have been there three times for exams and cleanings and not once did they recommend any procedure, unlike some other dental practices that sometimes "find" problems that are either non-existent or very marginal. My two cleanings have been excellent and very comprehensive. Their pricing is also lower than I was paying at another local dental practice. Their technology is also cutting edge. An A+ dentist from top to bottom. In summary if you're looking for a new dentist, I know you will like Dr Allred (he's so friendly and kind) and his entire staff is the same ... professional and friendly! read more

Really nice people! They stay in touch and are always available if you need them. Very patient and gentle. I found my new dentist. This is holistic dentistry so they do things other dentists don't. From sleep studies to tongue tie release, they do it. They also offer financing. read more

Best dental place in the world! Amazing staff and friendly. Finally people who know what they're doing

They discriminated against a disabled patient. They told my husband their elevator was too small for a gurney, but transport service was able to get me to outside office where they refused to allow me to enter, saying should be treated in a hospital setting, My son spoke to them calling internationally, explaining my stroke and other medical problems. I am in pain continually and cannot sleep. They could have discriminated against me on the phone instead of wasting my limited transport benefits preventing me from receiving other treatment. Often, five star reviews are fake or patient receives discount for reviews. This harms patients and has harmed me even more. I know dishonest dentistry is so common a dental rating website was taken down, likely due to legal threats. Dentists not only create positive reviews for themselves; they create false negative ones for their competitors. I understand liability fears, but they were aware of all my medical issues and had my medical records. Hopefully YELP is sufficiently lawyered up to handle legal threats to remove negative reviews as Healthgrades does and now removes negative ratings too. I want to continue to trust Yelp, so please look into phony glowing reviews. Honest dentists who do IV sedation, please reply. read more

The staff here is incredibly friendly they even stayed later than closing to make sure my daughter was taken care of. Dr. Allred was wonderful, very kind, and made my daughter feel completely comfortable. He took the time to explain everything clearly, which I really appreciated. The office is extremely clean and welcoming. We had an excellent experience and highly recommend this dentist! read more

I waited four months because I am lazy and I couldn't use my mouth properly. I attribute this to muscle memory. My new teeth seemed clunky and misaligned. All of those uncertainties have been completely resolved and I'm exceedingly satisfied and grateful for my full mouth restoration. My old dental situation was deplorable, and I lived in fear and shame of the shape that my teeth were in . Everything started to change with a simple evaluation by Dr. Allred. That day fear in shame were replaced with hope and excitement. Once the decision was made to move forward, the procedure moved fast! The first day was the longest 4 to 5 hours and I had 14 temporary crowns and four post for implants installed. All of this was painless as I was put under anesthesia!. I returned four weeks later for about two hours and had all permanent crowns and implants installed. ( Dr. Allred has his own CNC machine on site so all crowns and implants can be made as needed. No waiting for an outside company to get the teeth manufactured!) I can't close without mentioning how well the Office ran from reception and organization to the dental technicians. Thank you, Dr. Allred. Ps... I will admit, I shed a few tears out of gratitude! read more

I took advantage of their $149 new patient special which included exam, x-rays and teeth cleaning. The teeth cleaning was a joke. She only cleaned my bottom front teeth. I also wanted a premolar looked at because it had chipped and there were two deep cracks at the chip traveling down to the gum line. I explained several times that I was interested in having the tooth extracted due to financial hardship. Not once did they listen to me. Dr. Denise said you need a crown at $2,100 and tooth #15 filling needs to be removed and refilled due to a cavity at $438. The following day, I called and had my x-rays emailed to me. Tooth #15 pictures show that the cavity is a micro cavity. A complete removal of a composite filling and refill, removing a micro cavity? Greed! I have had dentists in the past just drill out a micro cavity at no charge because it hasn't penetrated the protective enamel. Not to mention, when you remove a filling, the refill typically weakens the tooth and usually ends up cracking in the near future, especially if it's a molar and then you have no choice but to get a crown or possibly a root canal and crown. After reviewing my x-rays, I noticed that tooth #18 also had a micro cavity, but Dr. Denise made no mention of that. I decided to reach out to an oral surgeon to have the pre-molar extracted, again, due to finances. The oral surgeon unfortunately needs a referral from the dentist. They reached out to the dentist, but Allred dental said we already have a plan in place and was unwilling to give a referral. Greed! I scheduled a 2nd opinion with Citracado Dental Group and met with Dr. William Jungman. I had emailed them my x-rays and after explaining all the above, including my desire to have the tooth extracted, Dr. Jungman was convinced that all I needed was a three-surface posterior composite filling on the pre-molar, not a crown. I was still very hesitant and insisted it be extracted due to the cracks. He put me at ease and had the time to complete the procedure on the same visit. He did a great job, saved the tooth and it looks and feels great. Needless to say, I have found my new dentist. read more

Trustworthy, doesn't upsell, equipment they use is generally new (not modern, not old). If you have anxiety over going to the dentist, this is your place. Dr. Allred will make sure you're comfortable. The staff is also great, even their billing person, very upfront and clear. read more

A tour de force of dentistry! ...From the friendly, proficient staff, to the good doc's calming chair-side manner and impressive multiple areas of expertise. read more

I am EXTREMELY pleased with my experience and results at Allred Dental. I have found an amazing new dentist and oral surgeon in one office. I arrived with a horrible toothache and infection. I was able to get an appointment quickly over the phone and seen right away. My very first visit met with an empathetic and friendly staff and a doctor who literally found the "root" of the problem and solved it. NZB read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Allred now for several years and I'm updating my review to basically say I won't ever need to find another dentist again, because he's it! His team is truly wonderful, friendly and make you feel at ease. Shout out to Aimee, Ariel, Jacqueline and team. They all are like family to me now, especially because I'm there a lot getting new smile aligner trays to straighten my teeth. Dr. Allred also helped give my mom a complete smile makeover. She's a young-at-heart 72 and looks amazing after the high quality work he did to improve her smile. If you're looking for natural-looking veneers and other cosmetic solutions, you can trust Dr. Allred's work 110%. He understands your face structure and what will look gorgeous and natural. Plus, the whole process is as painless as possible. My mom didn't have bad teeth either -- she had braces back in the day and had some staining, aging teeth. Nothing that was seemingly awful. However, now that she's had them worked on by Dr. Allred, the difference is incredible and she wishes she did something earlier. So, even if you think your teeth are "fine as is," you'd be surprised how bright and beautiful they can look. My mom looks much younger thanks to her updated smile and she gets compliments all the time. Thanks Dr. Allred for just being you, especially for those of us -- let's face it, most of us -- who don't enjoy going to the dentist. read more

This is just about the cost at Allred. Service was just fine, but after my cleaning I was told that it would be few minutes before the doctor can give me an oral exam. I explained that I did not want to see the doctor, but was told 'it was part of the service.' End result was $163 for the cleaning and $95.00 for the exam for $258 for the visit. Kind of expensive so if you go get your costs up front. read more

I first met Dr. Allred when he was consulting at a different dentist office. I found him very knowledgeable and willing to explain everything to you. When he left that dentist office and they had a different dentist consult with me, the difference was remarkable. The second dentist just didn't seem experienced and was a little eager to jump into recommending the expensive procedure. When I learned Dr. Allred had his own practice, I was willing to make the drive all the way to San Marcos to find him. The office is modern, very clean, and the chairs are actually pretty comfortable, both in the waiting room and in the procedure rooms. All the staff members were not just courteous, but very friendly as well. All smiles for you and willing to laugh. Apparently my nighttime teeth grinding was worse than I thought, because I ground through the enamel of my back molars and they needed repair. The other dentist immediately recommended two crowns, which would have amounted to around $3000 before insurance. That seemed a little extreme to me, so I got a second opinion from Dr. Allred. He thought crowns were a little "aggressive" for the amount of damage being repaired, and instead recommended onlays. That was the moment I decided the extra 20-minute drive was worth the trouble. (My previous dental office was right next door to where I work.) So I made an appointment to have him fix my ground-up teeth. The day of the procedure, he said one tooth was not as bad as the other, and that a filling would fix it just fine. This made my visit even cheaper! The total would come to just over $600 before insurance. I was amazed. This dentist is not the kind eager to recommend expensive procedures to you, even though he is perfectly capable of them. He is there to help you within your budget. He also knows his stuff. He offered explanations for my nightly grinding that no other dentist or even the internet ever offered (occlusal disease - where your bite is off and your jaw muscles unconsciously try to correct it). It's hard to find doctors and dentists who like to get to the source of the problems rather than simply treating your symptoms. I highly recommend Dr. Allred. Your teeth are very important to your happiness and well being, so he is worth the trip! His office is called Allred Dental and it's near Fry's Electronics in San Marcos. read more

Allred Dental - Front door - General Dentistry Near Me - San Marcos, California

The dental care staff was excellent the one time I used their services. I was impressed initially with customer service as well, until today when I called ten minutes after my appointment, had unexpectedly had to work today so last minute didn't have time to comply with the 48 hour notice to avoid a charge. The last time I had an appointment I missed due to a medical emergency. They told me today that they had waived a fee last time, which nobody informed me of at that time, so I didn't realize that was the case in general. I was told it was in my new patient paperwork I signed over 6 months ago. The reason for the five stars today is because they did call back and make it right. I was pleasantly surprised that they called me back after taking my credit card to charge me this fee. It shows that they do care about their customers and are hopefully using this experience as an opportunity to improve patient/provider communication. Good on them! I know fully understand their cancellation policy and will continue to use their services. read more

Wanting to give Dr. Allred and his staff another shout-out. They are so helpful and encouraging. Best dentist I've had in quite sometime. Once, again, they saved me with an emergency I had. Dr. Allred is so patient and is staff really do care about their patients, and all have always been willing to help over and beyond!!! Thank you guys for always being there for your patients. read more

Allred dental is fantastic. I drive over 40 minutes to go here because they're so good. Dr Allred and all of his staff are truly the best

I was recommended to Dr. Allred by Zoe B. She had heard me complain time and time again about not being happy with my previous dentists. She told me she had found Dr. Allred and to give him a try. So, I did. First, I get really nervous every time I visit any dentist. My tongue seems to have a mind of it's own making it super hard and difficult for any dentist to work on me. Most of them get frustrated and annoyed at me. Ah then there's Dr. Allred he has been so patient and extremely nice to me and my crazy tongue. I know, what am I 5yrs old? No, I just don't know how to relax and have control over my own tongue. Crazy!! Dr. Allred is friendly, knowledgeable and will ALWAYS make you happy with whatever procedure you do. I had veneers done because I grind my teeth at night. The grinding is so bad that my teeth were down to nothing with major gaps. Now my smile looks great! Thanks to Dr. Allred. He is one of the best dentist I have been to and it's willingness to work with you and explain every detail of any procedure. And to be honest that's what makes him top notch on my list. So happy and blessed to have been referred to him. If you are looking for a dentist that makes you comfortable and that is nice, knowledgeable and handsome? (a big bonus) ;-) Look no further. Now let's talk about the staff always friendly and welcoming. Clean office what more can you ask for? If you're in the area and looking for a dentist? Dr. Allred is the one to turn. read more

Allred Dental - My smile is so pretty and I feel more comfortable and happy. Thanks Dr. Allred! - General Dentistry Near Me - San Marcos, California

I'm not usually one to give a 5 star rating to a dentist, but Dr. Allred has been amazing! As soon as I met with him all my usual worries about the dentist were alleviated. You can just tell that he is a family man that is passionate about what he does and is willing to work with you to make you comfortable at a price that is actually affordable. While he has been great with my relatively healthy mouth, the real testimony comes from others I know have seen him that have had a LOT of dental problems. From friends that are petrified of the dentist to acquaintances that have lost almost all their teeth - not matter how bad, Dr. Allred makes everyone feel welcome and accepted. I put my full trust into my referral of Total Smile Family Dental. They take care of you as if you are family. read more

First and foremost....Tawny the hygienist is fabulous!! Their new office is gorgeous and of course Dr. Jeff is just as awesome as ever. You will love this office, I come from Temecula to have my dental work done here, they are very accommodating, super friendly and very professional! Love you guys read more

Dr. Allred is a great dentist who cares about his patients. The office is a bit hidden in San Marcos but it is clean and the equipment is all modern, cutting edge -- not your typical torture devices for the mouth! He offers invisalign and whiting but does not push anything just to make a buck. The staff is super friendly and Dr. Allred is about as nice as they come. The only reason he is not a 5 star, he is only a PPO dentist and does not work with HMO's so that hinders all of the family being able to see him! read more

I was recommended to Allred Dental by my neighbor, and I'm happy to report it was a great recommendation! The whole operation is top-notch, being able to fill out my paperwork on-line prior to my first visit was a treat, and the office staff couldn't be more knowledgeable, kind and helpful. My first visit went great! We took some X-rays, some photos, did a little background info stuff, and then dove into the cleaning. It seems like they have all the latest and greatest stuff there - this office had more gizmos and devices than my old dentist did, by far. Getting the X-rays done was far more pleasant than it's been int he past, there wasn't any biting down on some plate that cut my tongue or roof of my mouth, the whole process took about 2 minutes, and was completed while I was sitting in the same seat I would eventually get a cleaning in. The cleaning was amazing, and I could definitely tell my teeth were a whole hell of a lot cleaner than they had been the last few times I had a cleaning done at my old dentist. We talked a little bit about some potential issues I had, and the awesome thing about it was they weren't all super hyper about it, and they didn't make me feel like I was some sort of derelict because I don't brush and floss like 15 times a day. They acknowledged some of the things that my old dentist had pointed out, but didn't make it sound like all my teeth were going to fall out next week if I didn't make an immediate change. It really made me realize how much of a kook my old dentist was. It was very nice to be able to talk to folks about my teeth in a calm, rational manner. They gave me some advice on things I should probably be doing, but it wasn't high-pressure stuff at all. Super great. I scheduled a subsequent visit to get a chip in one of my teeth fixed, and I could not be any happier than I am with how well the repair feels in my mouth. The last time I got it fixed I could definitely tell that something was off, and the thing popped off within the first couple of months. This thing feels great, and I hope it lasts quite a while. This may sound more like a review about how crappy my old dentist was - but honestly, it's not. I was actually fairly happy with them. I think it's just that I'm so much more impressed with what the folks at Allred have going on, it really puts what the old goof was doing in perspective. If you need a dentist, I would highly recommend them! A+! read more

One of the worst things you have to do growing up... getting your wisdom teeth out. Not only, it is really close to my house, but the office is beautiful! I thought all their technology stuff was pretty cool and nifty. Anyways, I came in for a free consultation on the same day I called in. Everything was explained thoroughly especially to a college student. When I got the procedure done, they made me feel comfortable as possible and even called the next day to see how I was doing. Talk about great service! Even though I had some problems with my teeth during the healing process they did everything that they could so that I wasn't in pain. I highly recommend Dr. Allred and his staff to all the locals of San Marcos :) read more

Honestly you couldn't find a better dentist or dental office in North County. The staff is the most professional and kind group that you'll ever meet. Dr. Allred's talent, hard work, education and premium technology is unrivaled. We've trusted him with countless issues from maintenance, ortho, to surgical. Our family includes a reluctant husband, a frugal mother and 4 children ranging from teenagers to toddlers and we all are loyal and enjoy going to Dr. Allred's office equally. Together they make every experience, every dental need as pleasurable as possible. We can't say enough about, it's just something you'll have to experience for yourself! read more

In my 50+ years and in the 6+ different areas of the country where I have lived, I have been to at least 6 different dentists. It's not that I don't like dentists - it's just an uncomfortable situation. "Dr. J." has a gentle touch and is as honest as the day is long - doesn't try to pour any more dentistry into your mouth than is necessary. Honest, gentle, patient and professional - what more can you ask for in dentistry? read more

Best dentist I've ever had. Staff is great, and Dr Allred is friendly and skilled. I'll never switch to another dentist!

As someone who is terrified of the dentist, I can say with great pleasure that Allred Dental eased a lot of my fears and worries about the work that needs to be done. The dental assistant and receptionist were friendly and pleasant to work with. read more

Sub par dental work. But the kicker is the rude customer service provided by their billing lady. She is rude and talks down to you. You better make sure your dental benefits are in order, she will screw it up and you will get a surprise bill later. Avoid this place! read more

I've only been coming here for a few months but all the work I've gotten done has been great. Dr. Allred and all his staff are very nice and welcoming! read more

I went to another dentist first. Mission Dental. My bridge cracked and the doctor gave me an estimate of over 7000 to replace the bridge. They said to me. Good luck in finding someone who will do what you want I found Dr Allred in a Google search and boy. Am I glad. Very modern equipment. They are so thorough. Not rushed. I really would recommend them to anyone read more

Today was my first visit! Everybody was kind,professional and welcoming can't wait for my journey with Allred dental!

Dr. Allred and his office are wonderful. I have been going to him for a few years now and have never had a bad experience. Everything is handled nicely and explained thoroughly. Its a very comfortable environment. Even though I moved out of San Marcos I continue to go back. read more

Dr. Allred and his staff are wonderful on so many levels. We have been going to Allred Dental for over 8 years, they have always provided the best service for all our dental needs from our children to us. Dr. Allred gives thorough check ups with honest assessments of all dental details. He provides clear options that fit our need, budget and timeline. We'd refer him to all our friends and family. read more

This place is far from where I live, but, the Dr. and staff are pretty cool and nice. The assistant is hilarious. They have a massive huge MAC screen, which I totally want now. And the x-ray machine they took on me looks like a portable blow dryer. The place looks clean. The only gripe I have is that the magazines are news types, I like the gossip People magazines. Oh wells. He is a nice guy, not trying to give you dental stuff you don't need just to make a buck. So I felt he's the real deal. And their door slides! Japanish?? So it was worth the drive. read more

If you like to go to an incompetent office who sarcastically speaks to you. Then this is your place. Besides lying and not calling you but saying they left you a message is quite comical. You're best off seeing Dr Travezian or Dr Michelle Scott. Dentist is Allred is good, office staff will take this practice down. read more

I will be recommending this office to anyone that is inquiring about a dentist. I switched to Dr Allred's office after going to a different dental practice in the area. I have a fear of the dentist and had been putting off going for too long. I had my teeth cleaned yesterday and honestly was the best experience I had ever had going to the dentist. The staff listen to their patients and do everything they can to make your visit as comfortable as possible!!! read more

Allred Dental is awesome! I've been going there for years. They take care of my whole family. I like to promote small local businesses that go out of their way to take care of their customers and Allred Dental is one of those businesses. If you're looking for a good dentist I highly recommend Dr. Allred and his team. read more

I have not seen a better dentist since 2002! I have had some pretty bad experiences in the past but Dr. Allred turned that all around today. He and the staff (front desk and assisstants included) are all super calm, friendly, and reassuring. I felt like I was a family member. I am pretty sure I asked an annoying amount of questions and I always got a detailed answer and never felt rushed. Literally the most thourough dentist I've ever had. I have been pretty scared of going to the dentist for nearly 15 years but Dr. Allred completely turn my fear around. I cant say enough good things. I have definitely found my life-long dentist! Thank You Allred Dental!! read more

Best dentist in San Marcos! Awesome staff,easy to make appointments,very clean, and modern. I would definitely recommend going here! A++
