They've been great. In addition to modern amenities like being able to watch Netflix during your…read moreprocedure along with modern payment options, they're just a well-run practice. I've had teeth cleanings and a filling repaired, and they've always been gentle and considerate. The parking is easy too :). I moved to One Dental over a year ago when my longtime dentist Dr. Ravizza retired and his new replacements suddenly recommended multiple fillings and even a crown, despite me never having issues before. That didn't sit right with me, which is what led me here--and I'm glad it did. They confirmed that I didn't need that work.

Very disappointing experience with the front desk staff. I can't comment on the dentists since my…read moreappointment was canceled for no reason. In March, I made an appointment for May 28th as a first time client. Shortly after scheduling, I received a text asking if I'd be interested in an opening sooner to which I replied yes. I provided my availability and stated I was flexible and could come most afternoons. I received a reply shortly after asking if I'd like to come the next day for a morning appt. Um no. I had already clearly stated I could do AFTERNOONS. Two weeks later I get a call and then a text asking if I'd like to be added to the "ASAP list". I thought I already was?! I was contacted AGAIN a few days later asking about my availability. How many times do I have to spell out I can come in the afternoons?! By this point, they're too much and I ask that they take me off the list. It's too much communication. May 27th comes along and I realize I've received no communication about my appointment on the 28th. I text them to find out they canceled my appointment. I NEVER told them to cancel my appointment. I simply didn't want to be constantly bothered about their "ASAP list". It's really unacceptable that they canceled an appointment I waited almost 3 months for. I was really hoping to have a good dentist 5 minutes from my house but no such luck. I was not interested in rescheduling as I completely lost trust in this office.

I have been a patient of Dr. Fatima Vafai for over 15 years, and I cannot imagine trusting anyone…read moreelse with my dental care. I actually met Dr. Vafai as a child, before she even earned her DDS, and I've followed her throughout her different practices because I have complete confidence in both her expertise and appreciate the kind of person she is. Going to the dentist has never been my favorite thing, but Dr. Vafai has always made me feel comfortable and at ease. Last year, I began my Invisalign journey with Dr. Vafai and her amazing team. Every step of the process was explained thoroughly, and it was clear how knowledgeable and detail-oriented they are. Their professionalism and genuine care made the experience so easy and reassuring. From the moment you walk into the office and are greeted by Christie, you feel welcomed and supported. I've worked with Daisy, Dr. Vafai's dental assistant, for years, and I genuinely enjoy seeing her at every visit. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain each step of the process, so I know exactly what to expect. There are other hygienists at her office I have worked with as well and enjoyed my experience. After Invisalign, I decided to move forward with veneers because I had complete confidence in Dr. Vafai and her team. My biggest fear was ending up with bulky, fake-looking teeth, but I knew I could trust Dr. Vafai's skill and attention to detail. She listened to exactly what I wanted, and the results exceeded everything I hoped for. My smile looks incredibly natural, and I still feel like myself! Now with a more confident smile!!! Dr. Vafai and her staff are not only skilled but also warm, honest, and genuinely invested in their patients. They take the time to answer every question and make sure you're comfortable throughout the entire process. I am so grateful for the care I've received over the years and would recommend Dr. Vafai and her team without hesitation to anyone looking for a dentist they can truly trust.

After 10 years as a faithful patient, I cannot bring myself to return…read more Between the suspiciously "free" x-ray wand clearly supplied by a vendor to push Invisalign sales, and the tsunami of marketing texts, I opted out of texts. Apparently this also opted me out of receiving any human communication whatsoever, because instead of an appointment reminder, I received a collections notice. Bold strategy. When I called to ask for an exception, I was promised a callback. No callback came. Another collections notice did, though. Called again, went back and forth with the accounting manager, I offered to send a screenshot proving no call had ever been made to me. Total indifference and saying they had records a call was made. The care used to be genuinely great, which makes this all the more disappointing. The vibe here has changed, and not for the better. It's a real shame.

I also usually see Dr. Bauer when she drops in to say hi or answer questions or if she does my cleaning (I have never had the head dentist do my cleaning before!)

I had some really horrible scammy dental experiences right before starting care with her, and she helped me sort out the mess the last dentist had left of mine of my teeth (they lost my crown impression somehow after months of telling me my permanent crown was on the way). She also told me my previous dentist told me I had more cavities than I actually did, saving me money and unnecessary pain. As someone with pretty bad dental anxiety, she is the best dentist you can go to. She even let me (a fully grown woman) bring a stuffed animal into the office to help. She even pet the stuffed dog and asked his name You will not find better compassion and quality of care anywhere else.
