I am a recently retired dentist after practicing in Mammoth Lakes for 40 years. My reviews are…read morestill online. I moved to the Santa Barbara area and asked my new P.A. for a recommendation as I did not know any dentists in the area. It was a strange experience to be on the other side of the chair with someone new as I was used to having dentists that I knew personally treat me. I am very impressed with Dr. Scartello and his office. The up to date technologies, efficient spotless office, very friendly staff, and total comfort was over the top. My choice in treatment options were given and explicitly communicated. The office was designed for patient comfort and not flashy with unnecessary attempts to impress, similar to how I also built my own office. I appreciate those all the details. I learned things that I would do in my practice if I was still working, such as the R.D.A. massaging tight jaw muscles in a free moment. Highest recommendation!

I did not have to take any Aleve or Tylenol. Dr. Scarcello is so gentle and really truly one of those individuals who just makes you feel better by being in his presence. I realize some people can be afraid of the dentist but there's nothing to fear with Dr. Scarcello he provides five star service with a smile and ability to make you feel safe. Thank you so much!! I appreciate you Dr. Scarcello and Polly!!

I have been a patient for over 12 years. 3 years ago I was told that I was "getting away with it"…read morefor too long. That is not having my very small cavities filled that have not changed over time. They are on "watch" and I'm happy to have them stay that way until they change. I went to another dentist that did not find the small cavities that have been on watch as something that needed to be taken care of immediately. I was scolded by Dr. Scarcelo that I am bringing my car in for service and letting someone else do the mechanics ( my cousin is a dentist and did the last cavity that really needed attention) and he is left in the dust. I go once a year to get my teeth cleaned.. this last time at $131 and he said he doesn't make any money off that. He told me I should see a periodontist instead of a dentist for my cleanings. That it is a waste for me to do my cleanings with him. (A financial waste to him) He said I should only see a periodontist if I'm not going to let anyone take care of the cavities (on watch) So basically he was educating me that he is "entitled" to do the work on my teeth. I told him we were not a good match and I am going to search for a new dentist that doesn't bully me or make me feel bad for having good teeth that do not need to be drilled. I

Unnecessary treatments, no numbing application was applied for my veneer when getting it put on,…read morereally high-end prices I decided to go here because I saw good reviews on here. I will say I have had no issues with the staff and they've all been very kind even doctor Denny as well no issues as far as hospitality. In fact, I loved everyone there. As far as the appointments, though, something was off and a little fishy. He had said one tooth had too many fillings and it needed a veneer so I did that and it was a huge amount of money. I think it was around $800. After that I had problems with the tooth and he said it could've been a hairline fracture or it could need a cap and he was ready to schedule an appointment for that. Not only that is he pointed out that I had about three teeth with cavities in it. I also asked him to shave down my teeth and some areas from some bad fillings. I had gotten previously from a different dentist and he never did that for me. I decided to go to Kendall Rhodes associates. They didn't find any of the cavities. There was nothing wrong with the tooth that he wanted to fix a hairline fracture for. Not only that is on a very first appointment the dentist smooth out my fillings without me having to ask, she knows it and said how terrible and just went into it. I'm blown away. I want to believe that this is a good dentist and that money isn't a contributing factor to the decisions he made on my teeth. But I'm having a really hard time justifying all the money that I've spent. I'm very thankful I went to another dentist where I feel like they aren't just trying to milk my money.

Frank at the front desk is always Says hello, to everybody and goes the extra mile to get you in there if it's some type of a dental emergency. One thing, I have always noticed about Doctor Jeff. If you call up, then you have a problem. He usually tries to get you in there with a couple of hours. Other dentists, maybe 3 weeks later after you've had to deal with your issue.

(Please note that other comments below are about OTHER dentists and not about Dr. Cowan!) Why do I say 'best'? Dr. Cowan has a very deft touch. He is careful but sure. He is confident, but meticulous. One example: When using a drill, he will lightly touch the place on your tooth he is going to address, before spinning up the tool. Sort of like a practice swing in golf. Then, he applies the tool with a confidence you can feel. He is always very tuned in to any discomfort you may experience. One of the things I like best, is that he tells you what he's going to do next so that nothing comes as a surprise. It's impossible to ask, "How much longer?" Or, "What is the next step?" He knows this and answers the question before you have to ask. He is also aware that insurance plans are all over the map so he has always explained what sort of work I need done - and might need, and then advises that I work with the staff in the front office to figure out a game plan. And the staff are really nice, from the front office to the hygienist to the dental assistants. All of them capable and experienced and have all been working as a team in a way that makes every visit run smooth and any procedure devoid of anxiety. After a decade of regular work (root canal, cavities, crowns, and even an implant), I am a strong advocate.... So much so that when my (soon to be 90!) father moved to Santa Barbara, I did not hesitate to make this recommendation. Thanks for the crummy teeth, Dad!
