I went here today. I had appointments for myself and my 2 teens. They are reasonably priced, and very kind. We came here after going to a different dentist and feeling shamed and couldn't afford care there. Not only did the team at Aspire make us feel comfortable, I was able to pay for all 3 of our care at the apt, which included deep cleanings and cavity care. They had payment options available but we didnt need it, but want to mention for those who might. Im so happy we found these guys. I am one who is nervous for dental care, and I can confidently say I will be back for my continued care with them. read more

Came here for the first time about 2 weeks ago. I had an initial exam and cleaning done, as well as fixing a chipped tooth. The cleaning and dental work was satisfactory but the customer service is enough to turn me off from ever returning. As someone else mentioned, when they came to give me quotes for the proposed treatment plan Sandra would randomly decide the price could be lower for certain things and just crossed off the original price with her new quote. Lower price would be fantastic except in the end I was charged the original higher price. That was my first red flag. I was told I needed a night guard during the first visit so they scanned my mouth for the mold. The dentist tells me they can just add a note saying the chipped tooth was fixed so the lab could account for that. As I'm checking out Sandra (who apparently works in the front and the back?) asks me to come back so she can scan the chipped tooth now that it's fixed. Fine, I go back. I sit there for 20 minutes while she tries to make the machine work, gives up and tells me they will just add the note like they said originally. Next day, I get a call saying they DO need to scan my mouth again so I go back for a second time. I went in today to pick it up (3rd visit). There is no night guard - they ordered a stay plate instead (which I don't need). Sandra comes out telling me they will rush order it and I can pick it up soon, no offer to send it to my house, no credit for my troubles nothing. I'm so annoyed I tell them to cancel the whole thing and refund me because I refuse to drive out FOUR times for a night guard. Five minutes after I leave I get a call from Sandra saying she realized it would be "too much of a hassle" to reimburse the insurance and myself so she can just ship it to me because that'll be easier for HER. I refused and will now be on the lookout for my refund which I'm sure will be a whole ordeal as well. read more

I came in to have an implant done. The whole procedure took about six or seven visits, which apparently is a normal experience. Got to know the staff and even my doctor, doctor Smith. On my last visit I came in in there's an entirely new staff and the doctor that I got to know was no longer working there and a woman doctor took over for him. The staff never even gave me a courtesy before I came in for my last visit saying that Dr. Smith no longer works there. Needless to say, I was quite surprised and shocked. If you're looking for a dental agency where you would like to get to know the doctors and staff this place is probably not the place for you. read more

Prior to seeking care from Aspire Dental, I was very apprehensive about visiting the dentist. Past experiences made it clear that many dental professionals get bogged down in the administrative and insurance side of the business. That being said, Aspire Dental has done phenomenal work to ensure that patients are comfortable and included in their treatment planning. I highly recommend Aspire Dental to anyone seeking excellent care, regardless of the distance. read more

I just changed from a PPO to an HMO and a new dentist Mahboubeh Najariantousi. 1ST The x-ray machine didn't work and after the perio Probing she told me very bluntly are you going to do what i tell you? ! After all was said and done she hit me with a $50,000 list of work that she said I need. I went in for a cleaning only .So i went back to a PPO dentist and received my normal cleaning and a filling ! VERY RUDE AND MONEY DRIVEN. read more

Terrible terrible. One problem after another. First, got my wisdom teeth to removed and the nurse couldn't remove the tourniquet before they put me out. And then I was still partially awake for the extractions and could feel and hear everything. Also, the charges for the anesthesia that didn't even work on me were out of this world. Most expensive procedure for extractions. Then after wisdom were removed, he said I needed a root canal. Did that. Then they said I needed a crown. Well that crown didn't fit, twice! So I had two different temporary crowns for almost a month while the crown was being made. Finally got it made right, and when they put it in, I said it was still feeling weird. Well a couple months later, was having pain around the area and the crown came out. Went back to have it put on and the dr said everything looks good, not sure why you have pain or why the crown came out. Well, came out again earlier this year, same thing. And now yesterday crown popped off again. Seems like other people are having similar experiences. They all seem nice, but it's obviously a scam. Something needs to change and I would like them to reach out, otherwise I will be showing up and raising hell in that office. read more

Dr Najar and all the staff at aspire do a fantastic job and everybody has very positive vibe . My procedure was well explained and executed.Surgery was done with minimal discomfort . So far the most pleasant experience I have had at the Dentist. read more

The worst dental office I have ever been to. My wife waited over an hour after her appointment time just for the dentist to not do the cleaning she had scheduled. She was nickle and dimed for things they pressured her to get and left us with a hefty bill. Salesmen office with no organization. read more

I went here for a toothache. And they said that I need to get a root canal and a crown and mu insurance were not going to pay for either I found another dentist in a different city he looked at my tooth and said it needed to be filed down a bit which he did and all the pain was gone the next morning I told him what these people said about a root canal and crown and he said both of those are unnecessary and wouldn't help this at all I feel like this dentist just wants to make money and doesn't really care about their patients Avoiding this place in the future 0 out of 5 wouldn't not recommend to ANYONE read more

If I could give a zero or negative star I would! It's almost been a month since I was told to reach out to Charlotte from the supposed "business owner" according to yelp but her email says something completely different. I'm assuming no one has reached out because they're hoping that I would just forget about this whole nightmare of a situation and for them then not have to rectify this situation. If they truly cared, why couldn't Charlotte call me? Why pass this off to some incompetent team who either can't dial my number correctly, or don't know how to leave a voicemail? Thus, reinforcing my argument of THEY DON'T CARE NOR WILL THEY EVER! I am not the type of person to complain or write reviews. I am so sick of being in pain from this botched root canal that cost a fortune! Thankfully I am going to Menifee Lakes Dental Group this Sunday to hopefully get my tooth fixed and color matched at the office!!! Two hours in the office they are capable of making a new crown! I am attaching the correspondence between me and the "business owner". I hope someone can learn from my mistake and run from this place as fast as possible! I do NOT wish this agony on my worst enemy! read more

See all

The office estimator quit 4800 for crown.then he reduced to 2800 then he reduced to 2650.it is disrespectful and bad environment. I don't recommend going there read more

Dr. Smith is good. He's good with his hands, his procedures are swift, quick, and precise. His relaxed nature is contagious. He's conservative with his treatment plans, I know this because I had a consultation at another dental office before visiting his office for the first time. He came up with a very simple, easy going, and easy on the wallet plan. He will also explain his treatment plan in such a relaxed manner, it'll just make you feel like everything's going to be ok. When most dentists give me their treatment plan, they'd leave me feeling completely doomed. The staff there are wonderful, they are all genuinely kind people. Maria will easily put anyone anxiousness at ease with her gentle and patient nature. Brittany and Marlen in the front office are extremely personable and will make you feel like you've been coming around for years. And if I were honest, I was really hesitant on leaving this review for selfish reasons. Don't you people go taking up my appointment slots! But they deserve it, its been a great experience through and through. read more

Don't go here. I had a collection agency call me on behalf of this dentist. I paid whatever was owed and They never sent me a bill nor have I been to this crook in over 2 years. On top of that, they charge you full price for work you don't need done then take you to collections without sending a bill. What a Scam read more

Typical Bait/Switch. Answered an ad in mail for cleaning and exam for $59. When I arrived I was told Dr had emergency and would be little while. I asked if there would be enough time to do the cleaning and they said, no problem. And so I waited. I ended up waiting a full hour. The doctor, who was very kind, took photos/x-rays and then brought in the person to give me a quote for $1500 worth of work. Then told me they weren't able to actually do the cleaning today because we ran out of time. Spent 2 hours, nothing to show for it. I guess this is how dentists offices work these days, charge for providing a quote and then trick you into leaving with nothing. Wish I could charge my clients to give them a quote. Paid the money, they need more than I do, won't be back again. read more

I am just had quite possibly the most gentle dental hygienist ever work on my teeth at Aspire. I used to be terrified to visit the dentist, but Aspire has helped me overcome my dental fears. I highly recommend Kris as a hygienist. read more

I went in as a new patient based on my 90 year old mothers experience who in the past has never liked her dentist. I thought I was just going to get xrays and a cleaning. Well, there were other more pressing issues. Knowing that I don't live close by, he took care of problems that could be done that day. There will be follow up appointments so there may be more reviews to come. This review is also based on the support staff there. All amazing careing people. The doctor must be a good employer to have such a great team around him. read more

First off, they nickel and dime you. Charge you for items you don't need( UV light on your gums then hand you a 200.00 bill) Seems like they are trying to squeeze every cent out of you. Also quote you highest prices for procedures before seeing your teeth then never altering the price. Scam!! read more

I have spoken with the front staff at Aspire Dental, I believe a lady named Tyesha, and she was so patient and helpful! I have yet to make an appointment, but I can't wait! I stopped by on my way to Marshall's and the office is clean and professional. !!!!! If i could give this place 30 stars i would i truly appreciate this place and their friendly staff i will be coming back read more

Just got my teeth cleaned by Laura. I have *crazy* sensitive teeth and it was one of the best experiences! I'm coming back every 3 mos to get my teeth back to health since I've been afraid to get them cleaned. I've found my hygienist and I hope she never leaves.

Walked in with a small chip on my front tooth and left with a happy smile! Thank you to the people at Aspire Dental for being so accommodating and fixing my tooth! Never thought it would be so easy. read more

The staff are extremely nice, accommodating, and explained any questions I had. I moved to SJC from LA last year and have been putting off finding a new dentist, this is where I landed after looking up some offices near me through my coverage and I'm so glad I did. The office is comfortable, updated, and clean. Oh and I love the dentist! It's hard to find a good dentist these days and he seems to be the real deal. Thank you for being so great to me! read more

Outstanding! Facility is very modern, specklesly clean, and elegant. Equipment is state of the art. Everyone is patient, friendly, informative, and skilled. Examination was very thorough and considerate. Dr Smith listens to his patients. He did everything I needed, and nothing I considered pointless or harmful, unlike some other dentists I've been too. I booked because I'd broken a crown. Tidying that up and fitting a temporary replacement was quick and painless. Office Manager explained everything and worked with my insurance company, so the crown, plus cleaning, and repairing/replacing a few old fillings, is costing me considerably less than the last dentist I saw had quoted, and with fewer visits. Thanks read more

My dental visits have always pretty run-of-the-mill; nothing to brag about. That changed when I went to Aspire Dental! This is a new office with a great staff, and a really awesome dentist, Dr. Smith. The ambiance is very welcoming and they are taking extra precautions to help patients feel safer during COVID. Brittney was very friendly and helpful throughout my entire visit and Dr. Smith was so kind and personable. After a few minutes of speaking with Dr. Smith, my normal ' dental check-up nervous jitters' were all gone. Dr. Smith took his time to explain my treatment and check on me during my cleaning. So happy to have tried Aspire Dental and even happier to have a wonderful new dentist/dentist office. read more

I was very impressed with this dental office... It was very clean and newly remodeled with new equipment. This was my first time to this office. I had an appointment for smile direct teeth straightening and I was so impressed with the office, Dr.Scott and his staff that I ended up having a full work up, a cap and deep cleaning all at the same time. I am 57 years old and this was the best dental experience I have ever had... I did not feel the injection nor any pain during my procedure. read more

I am so happy to have found Aspire Dental. It is a brand new office staffed with super friendly, efficient and professional people. Dr. Smith is absolutely amazing. He is so knowledgeable, thorough and took the time to explain everything to me in detail. I did not feel at all rushed, felt comfortable asking all the questions I had and had all my dental issues addressed. My teeth feel and look so clean and I have peace of mind knowing that they are in good capable hands from now on. Everyone at the office was very welcoming and helpful. They took my temperature at the door, provided clean sterile pens for filing out forms, and had lots of hand sanitizer available for patients to use. I felt very safe because I could clearly see how sparkling clean everything was. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to get the best possible dental care. read more

I'd like to start this review off by first thanking Dr. Smith and Brittany Gutierrez on the very successful surgery today. I have been putting off a surgery for 3 years and they were very helpful making this process less stressful and painful on me. Dr. Smith has the lightest hands in all of Orange County hardly felt a thing. Very nice and understanding people. Not only did they remove my tooth but recommended that I get in invisaline as well so that I can straighten out my teeth in the process something that a lot of dentist that I have talked too haven't said. I very much appreciate the hospitality and care that was put into my surgery. Really grateful to have the staff be the ones to take the tooth out and for future dental needs. If you are looking for a dentist that actually cares about his patients and amazing staff that are very nice helpful and respectful then you make your appointment today! read more

It had been years since I had seen a dentist l, but after I chipped my tooth, I knew I had to bite the bullet and be seen ASAP! Everyone here took such amazing care of me and made me feel very comfortable. I was very nervous, not knowing what to expect... I mean don't we all get nervous going to the dentist? Well you honestly have nothing to fear here. They will make sure you leave overly satisfied!!! You guys are simply the best! I couldn't be more grateful for the care I received! read more
