Dr Del Core has been my dentist for almost 30 years now.. Since I was just a little 3-year-old with my baby teeth. Him and his staff have always made sure my teeth are in the best possible condition, even if I might not floss every day.. Oops. I've never had a cavity, I've never had any tooth problems - and I'm sure I have Dr Del Core and his wonderful hygienists to thank for that. In June I decided to get Invisalign through Brian, and I have to say I'm extremely happy with the results. He's been suggesting I get them for 5+ years now for my bottoms that were coming out alignment. I finally gave in and got em after chipping a tooth because my bottom teeth had become so crooked in front. Just 4 short months and my smile and bite are back to new. If you're eligible for the 'limited' Invisalign series, my suggestion would be not to wait until your teeth are so misaligned you need a full series. They cost more and they take more time. Just do it now. ;-) I haven't been this happy with my teeth in a long time, very glad to have made this investment in my future. Thanks Doc! I'll see you in 6 months for my regular cleaning. read more

I have been going to Brian for over 25 years! Only person I trust with my teeth. Thankful that I have a confident smile thanks to him and his team. read more

I have been going to Dr. Del Core for a little over a year now. I am not a fan of going to dentists in general, but he makes you feel very comfortable and well informed on what work will be done. I remember my first visit there I was very impressed with the technology he used. A tiny camera was placed in my mouth and images then popped up on the computer next to my chair and he showed me what areas needed work, etc. I also had Zoom whitening done a few months ago and was very happy with the results. If you are looking for a dentist in the Aptos/Santa Cruz area, I highly recommend going here. read more

Brian J Del Core, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Aptos, California

My son goes to Dr. Del Core and always receives top notch care. Dr. Del Core always spends a lot of time explaining what he finds or what he recommends for procedures; the hygienists are also really good, careful, and kind. In December, my son had a medical procedure at Stanford that required general anesthetic and a tube. A few days later, he was having severe pain in his lower jaw, and I was worried that something had gotten misaligned during the procedure. I called Dr. Del Core's office and they said they could see him right away, that day, after school; it was their last day before closing for the holidays, and they were in the middle of a holiday party, but they still made room to see him, and Dr. Del Core spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the problem was. He was thorough and reassuring. Whatever he did, it did the trick. We're so fortunate to have such great dental care for our son! read more

I finally found a Dentist I really like! Not only is he a genuine person but he knew how to tackle all of my teeth conditions in the right manner. Easy location and great staff, no need to say anything more. read more

I have been a patient with Dr. Del Core for several years now. I have always been impressed with his professionalism, competence, and compassion. He takes the time to get to know you and makes sure you understand the procedure. He has an well trained staff full of wonderful people who share his caring attitude. He has a pleasant office, that is comforable and inviting. He keeps up to date equipment with digital radiography, lazer technology to check for hidden decay, and a new whitening system that works in just 20 minutes! I have referred my wife there, who is not of fan of dental work, and she was also very pleased with Dr. Del Core. Dental work is never fun, but Dr. Del Core and his staff make the experience as pleasant as possible. I always leave with a big smile! read more

I've been with my Dentist, Dr Del Core, through 2 recessions now, and my teeth have never been in better shape. Not bad for a reformed Brit (me not him)! Like all dentists he'll push for timely treatments to make sure you keep those pearly whites for years to come, but unlike some he's always been willing to work with me when life or finances have got in the way of the ideal plan. A good solid bloke who's just as happy chatting about his family, mountain biking or road trips as he is about your teeth. read more

Dr. Del Core is an exceptionally good dentist. He just saved a tooth that needed a very difficult cap replacement due to decay under an old cap. I can't recommend him highly enough! read more

I have been a patient of "Dr. Evil" for nearly 20 years. He is awesome!! I call him "Dr. Evil" because I HATE going to the DDS....the noise...the smell of your teeth being ground down...being allergic to regular numbing agents and the alternate not working....the list goes on. In truth, I am a pit-bull in the chair and he is the calming agent. He actually gave me chocolate-chip cookies one time (I know--right?). He took all of my 70's mercury fillings out and replaced them with perfect porcelain. If you need a good DDS and you are afraid ...he is your guy. He is also not bad on the eyes ;) read more

I just received a phone call from this dental office to edit my yelp rating. She said she had sent me the X-ray of the 4 bitewings, which she did. I still would not go back. It took me weeks before my jaw felt normal after the cleaning and Dr. DelCore seemed preoccupied both visits. read more

Dr. Del Core is wonderful! He is our family dentist and a trusted resource for our dental needs. From my first crown, he has always been gentle and calm and taken extra time to make sure everything felt right for me. He has also helped our family in times of need. Years ago, my father visited during the holidays and had a partial that was bothering him. Dr. Del Core made time on short notice to see my father and worked his magic in no time! Most recently, my mother came to California for an extended visit and mentioned that her dentist had retired and she was having some issues. Without hesitation we took her to see Dr. Del Core to see if he could help her. The work was extensive, but he has worked his magic again and mom is extremely pleased and excited with the results! Thank you Dr. Del Core! read more

Dr. Del Core has the best beside manner of any dentist I've ever visited. He also has a gentle touch making the most difficult procedure comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone needing dental care. The entire staff is excellent from his amazing dental assistant to his increadible receptionist who helped navigate the complicated world of insurance making that process very easy too. My whole family gets their dental needs met at Dr. Del Core's office. My wife who is a health practitioner as well agrees that Dr. Del Core is very good at what he does. My 4 year old son who had been nervous about his first visit to the dentist has no fear thanks to Dr. Del Core and the Dental Hygienists in the office. My entire family has had nothing but very good experiences here and again I give him and his staff the highest rating and recommendation. Pleased dental patient...Jason Miller and family. read more

Five stars, taking care of my entire family for 15 plus years. Very knowledgeable, fair, relaxing, thoughtful, and accommodating!!

Dr. Del Core is a solid dentist and person. He's incredibly knowledgeable and capable for correcting any issue that may come up with your teeth. I've had him do crowns on my teeth as well as composites, all of which look great. Waits are typically short. The hygienists are awesome and really care that you take care of your teeth and will give you helpful hints on how best to do that. Just had a few fillings done. No pain and I was out in less than an hour. read more

I have been going to Dr. Del Core for 20 years and have been completely happy with the professionalism, attention to detail and friendly approach I receive from him and his staff. He takes a long term perspective about dental health, anticipating my needs and helping me with strategies for keeping my dental need to maintenance rather than repair. Under his guidance I have improved my dental health over the years and, as such, my cost of going to the dentist have been reduced compared to earlier in my life. read more

Dr. Del Core and all of his staff are very friendly, helpful & gentle. My mouth felt very clean :)

Dr. Del Core and his staff are always extremely friendly and quick to help if I need to get in right away. I have been extremely impressed with their professionalism and service. read more

I'm grateful to have such a good dentist. Brian is not only is extremely proficient at dentistry, but cares about me as a person. He was able to correct a problem with my bite that I had lived with for years and was resigned to live with. Thankfully Brian corrected this and I've been pain free ever since. A great office with great people. He is also excellent with cosmetic dentistry so if you have problems there he can help you. Thank you, Dr. Del Core! read more

Great Dentist! Very friendly and cares about his patients. I highly recommend him.

Firstly I am not a big yelp fan . I think people who are unhappy are more likely to yelp than people who are happy. This creates a negative bias. This is my very first yelp review. I signed up just to give a very deserving positive review to Dr. Del Core. Dr. Del Core is not my regular dentist. It turns out my regular excellent dentist of 20 years was on safari in Africa. As luck would have it I developed a rip roaring toothache with pain radiating through the side of my face. Excruciating nerve pain no joke! Dr. Del Core was covering my regular dentist emergencies in her absence. I called his cell number and he set up a referral to a root canal specialist asap. He even offered to come in and see me on a Sunday. After a few days the pain inexplicably subsided. Nevertheless Dr. Del Core evaluated me and took X-rays. He even sent a report to my dentist and the endodontist. He gave me a copy of the x-rays. Dr. Del Core was pleasant, professional and thorough. To top it off he would not accept payment even though I insisted. Super nice. He said we do this for each other referring to my regular dentist. Wow what great service! Thank you so much. read more

I had the easiest root canal ever today, thanks to Dr. Del Core. After being with the same dentist for 15 years, I decided to change over to Dr. Del Core. From the very start he and his staff were very accommodating and warm. I let him know that my tooth was still bothering me after having a crown put on a year ago. He patiently discussed all the potential causes of the pain and possible options to relieve the discomfort. He was pragmatic and didn't pressure me one way or another toward a solution. After a month or so, though, I decided a root canal was the best option. He and his staff were extremely helpful in getting me in quickly with a time that fit with my work schedule. The procedure was done carefully, but efficiently. I was out in 2 hours and have virtually no discomfort. How many people write a Yelp review about a root canal?! I'm very happy that I moved over to Dr. Del Core. read more
