When I come in for my scheduled appointments, there is very little waiting time before I am seen for my appointment which is important to me. If my appointment is for teeth cleaning by Roxanne, Dr. Kaiser will usually check my teeth afterwards just as a second check to make sure she doesn't see something unusual. When I have seen Dr. Kaiser for something more serious, she always explains what the treatment plan will be and I get a written copy emailed to me. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but Dr. Kaiser always makes sure I'm comfortable when performing any major dental work. Recently, I had some pain and discomfort with one of my molars and it was on a weekend. I called the office and was able to reach Dr. Kaiser quickly. She gave me options to try some pain relievers, but if the pain persisted she would see me on Sunday. She checked on me Sunday, and fortunately the pain was minimized for me to wait until she could fit me in the following week and fix my molar issue!!

He was on our list of insurance covered dentists and was the one closest to home, so I made appointments for my husband and myself for exams, x-rays and cleaning which our insurance provides for free twice a year. They wouldn't make an appointment for the cleaning which should have been a warning. When we went in for the (free) exam and x-rays we were each told, separately, that we couldn't have a cleaning because we needed periodontal cleaning and that wasn't provided. He then proceeded to find $12,000 worth of work that we needed (although there is nothing wrong with either of us as our teeth have been very well cared for). Neither of us has a toothache or any dental discomfort. My husband is 85 years old. So we took the meeting with the woman in the office who tells you prices (Denise) and we told her that we wouldn't be making any appointments at this time but would think about it. She then told us that we owed her $20 each. $5.00 each for the office visit and $15.00 each for the exam. I called to check that with my insurance company the next day and they told me that there was a $15 co-pay for a cleaning (which we didn't get). So I paid $30 which I shouldn't have paid, but I guess I'm grateful to have gotten out of there that cheaply. I've gone to other insurance dentists who operated this way, but this was the most blatant, most money-grubbing place I have ever been to. Trust me, we'll never go back, or to any other insurance dentist. The next one will come with a great recommendation from a trusted friend.

I just started going here after finding Santa Maria on Yelp (two visits so far) and I LOVE these…read moreladies. I waited 9 years to see a dentist - partly because of life events and partly because of my irrational fear of dentists. During the first visit the doctor took X-rays and wrote a course of treatment for me after examining my teeth. In the evaluation she added nothing excessive, gave me ALL of my options, and even planned out for some teeth to "watch". I needed a deep cleaning and one filling so I just had my second appointment. First off, the doctor and her assistant are lovely people - easy to talk to and will explain every step of what they're doing. They make you very comfortable. Once they started my cleaning we found out how sensitive my mouth was. But the doctor told me that there was no need for me to be in pain and we'd keep administering numbing medication until I was pain-free, then she'd continue. Now, they only use local anesthesia- no NOS gas here - but honestly, I couldn't even see needing it. She numbed me so many times - which after the first couple pinches I couldn't even feel - until i was pain free. She's pretty much magical. I felt so bad for how much time we spent on medicating me - but she was so supportive and reassuring. After the procedure, when I could look at my filling - I couldn't even tell which tooth she had done by looking at it. It PERFECTLY matched my tooth shape and color - unlike another back filling I had done as a kid. She told me to expect some discomfort after since my filling ended up being larger than she thought - but honestly, I haven't felt a single pain since! I would highly recommend Santa Maria Dental to anyone and everyone - ESPECIALLY those scared of dentists. They don't have any fancy gas anesthesia or tvs for distraction, but I didn't even end up listening to the music I brought - the doc and her assistant were much more comforting. I left off a final star because of their cleaning prices. My boyfriend's dentist has better cash prices than what my insurance for this doctor covers and they won't honor any of their coupons or checkin deals for anyone with insurance - cash patients only - even if the coupon doesn't say so. I'll probably pay cash to my boyfriend's dentist for cleanings or deep cleanings, but I'm getting any/all of my more significant work done at Santa Maria. Wonderful!

Dr. Shouhed has changed my life. I left feeling confident, happy, and well taken care of. I'm smiling again!!! The only downside is parking. Parking in the area is very expensive, which can be frustrating. But a small inconvenience for the level of treatment received. Overall, an excellent dental experience with outstanding staff and results -- 10/10 would recommend!

At first I thought I had the wrong number and asked if I had the right phone number and could schedule a teeth cleaning. She said no, I'd need a referral for that. I said that this sounded unusual since I've never needed a referral to simply get my teeth cleaned and she insisted that I was mistaken and that I needed to call my insurance company because they should know that this is the policy. When I repeated that I had just gotten off the phone with my insurance about my policy and just wanted a basic cleaning she confessed that she thought I had meant a deep cleaning. But then she said they didn't have any appointments available for weeks and that even if I did schedule an appointment, they would have to do the xrays and exams on one day and the teeth cleaning on a separate day. I've moved around a lot and been to several dentists so I'm pretty sure this is ridiculous. For a basic, new patient teeth cleaning, it sounds like they are trying to scam insurance by billing for two separate days. Glad I didn't make the mistake of going to this place. Pretty sad when their first impression is that they are a mess. Oh and did I mention that the receptionist then hung up on me? Yep. If you value your teeth, you probably shouldn't go here.
