If you are looking for a great dentist, Dr Chavez is the dentist for you. From the minute I called to schedule an appointment I felt comfortable. I had a bad experience with my previous dentist so I was a little apprehensive. The staff was friendly and Dr Chavez was so kind. I am sure she knew I was scared by the way I was holding on to the arms of the chair. She eased my mind and she had a great sense of humor. At no time during my exam was I ever in pain. I have already scheduled my next appointment and have recommended her to my family members. The office has more than ample Covid precautions in place. If you need to go see a dentist, give this office a try. You won't be disappointed. The phone number is 714 439-9800. They are located near South Coast Plaza. read more

Another shout out to my trusted Dentist and team! I fractured my tooth (vertically) this morning during breakfast. At the time I didn't know this and made that not so fun, Urgently Page the doctor press 9 call. Within minutes Angie called to gather data on what happened. She got me prepped and ready for Dr. Chavez to review the tooth in question by 830am!! As always the personal service that Dr. Chavez promotes shined again. Educated me on what happened and explained my options. I got setup with a top notch Oral Surgeon and out comes the tooth tomorrow! So grateful to be a patient of this wonderful team.

Angie at the front desk is warm and caring! Overall amazing customer service! I refer all my friends and colleges to her! Exceptional dentist, exceptional staff! read more

A real 5 star! Today I had my regular cleaning which I had been postponing for months because of Covid. I knew Dr Chavez was very detail oriented in her profession but what I saw today was beyond. She had taken Covid precautions to another level. She had put vinyl curtains in each section, so you are totally separated from the rest of the office when you are seated. Instead of one air purifier for the entire office she had put air purifiers in each section. Also there were other patients in the office but none of us did come across each other. Everything was very well planed. Great job Dr Chavez! I am impressed! Thank you for taking good care of your patients and your staff. Erica, you did a great job on my sensitive teeth today. Thank you so much! read more

this dental is thee best!!! everyone you come in contact with from angie to dr briana have the absolute best personality! i have fallen in love with dentist visits because of them.

Dr. Chavez is really the best dentist! I take my 4 yr old son to her and I go myself. She is so gentle and caring towards my son and I know he truly feels comfortable in her hands. The whole office staff is great as well; very friendly and warm hearted. They even have massaging chairs and heated wraps that go around your neck! This is by far the best dentist I have gone to! read more

Excellent service!!! The staff is very welcoming from the time I got there they offered me a hot/cold pack for my neck and then put dark glasses on me then started the massage chair I felt incredibly comfortable I forgot I was even at the dentist ! Best teeth cleaning I have ever had . Dr Chavez is very down to earth and easy to express your needs to. The one thing I loved there was no up selling when leavingI new I would be a lie to for life read more

I am writing this review on behalf of my wife because she doesn't have a Yelp account. Beautiful office and the entire staff if friendly and attentive. Dr. Chavez is the consummate professional who is both personable and a perfectionist. read more

Possibly the best dentist we have ever been to. Dr. Chavez and her team are beginning to end are the utmost professionals. My family and I needed to make the switch to a new dentist after 19 years and we came across Dr. Chavez. Our experience with her and her team has been stellar to say the least. From Angie & Katie who greeted us with the warmest of welcomes, to Celia who was the hygienist who gave me one of the best and thorough cleanings I have ever had. Dr. Chavez sets the standard pretty high for herself and her staff. She is thorough and clear in her communication and has an incredible bedside manner. Our family is hard to please but in this instance they all exceeded our expectations! So happy we found her! read more

I was recommended to this dentist office by my coworker. The whole staff at Mrs. Briana Chavez office is very friendly. As soon as you walk your are greeted in a genuine way. You can seriously hang out there and talk all day with the staff they are so friendly. You can tell they truly care about their patients. read more

Hands down the best dentist I've ever been to!!!She LISTENS, she's meticulous and uses shared decision making with her patients! I live 4 hours away and I will make the commute just for her dental care. It goes without saying...I highly recommend Dr. Chavez! read more

Great experience! They are clean, friendly, and professional. If you are looking for a dentist, I highly recommend you stop here!

I wish Dr. Chavez could be my eye doctor, my OBGYN, my Vet for my pups. I mean. The sweetest ever!! A few month back, my husband woke up with insane tooth pain. I jammed through Yelp to try and find someone that would take him quickly. They sweetly said they were booked, but when he grabbed the phone and nearly begged to get in, they said come right now! Maybe an hour later I got a relieved phone call from him with a fixed tooth, and him saying we have to use her! She is the nicest Doctor ever!! Fast forward a few month. True confession: My name is Celena, I am 30, and I am afraid of the dentist. With his coaxing, and finding out I was newly pregnant, I made my appointment. Fear of a dental disease and a new baby made me do it. As soon as I walked into the office I was greeted by Irene, who 411ed me they were finishing up their morning meeting and would be right with me. This made me happy because it felt like they were family. Dr. Chavez came running out not long after her with a huge hug and big congrats for our baby news!! I was floored at how genuinely excited she was for us, and all the dental jitters went out the window. The dental cleaning was a piece of cake, and I know I needed a little work with not being at the dentist for a year. But with the massage seats, cold neck pillow, awesome tunes, and Dr. Chavez saying I was doing great, it went a ok! Ohh and just last week, I had a cracked tooth fixed in I swear 20 minutes!! She's like the tooth fairy. Super sweet, flutters in and out super fast, and most importantly, painless. Thanks Dr. Chavez!! read more

Dr. Chavez and staff are awesome. Appointments are scheduled timely, office is clean. Always a positive environment. I have referred 2 people since I have been a customer. read more

I hadn't been to the dentist in a long time, and thus had no regular dentist to rely upon. Fortunately, I hadn't much in the way of teeth problems, however, two weeks before I had to be in Finland on business, one of my upper back teeth literally broke in half exposing my nerves. The pain! The timing! I began to look up nearby dentists on yelp and through other online avenues. I struck gold with Briana Chavez. Her and her staff go out of their way to make you feel as welcomed and comfortable as possible. This goes a long way with me when interacting with people in the health and medical professions. Too often, I've run into jaded doctors, receptionists, nurses, etc... Briana made absolutely certain that I was in shape for Finland and worked with me on costs, since I work in a mobile startup and do not have medical insurance - this alleviated not only my pain, but my stress as well. I'm forever grateful for her and her staff's help, and happy to know that I have a reliable, friendly dentist I now know and trust. I would definitely recommend anyone to her that is in need of dental work, emergency or otherwise. read more

Excellent dentist office! I have not been to the dentist in about 5 plus years, could not have made a better choice for my first visit back. Dr Briana Chavez is hands down the BEST dentist I have ever had the joy of seeing. And too top it off you will be hard pressed to find a better office staff! Clean, friendly, professional, I could go on buy you get the point. read more

Briana Chavez, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

See all

I want to give Dr. Chavez a trajillion to the power of infinity stars. She is, by far, the best dentist I have ever been to. She is gentle, warm, thorough, and authentically invested in helping you keep your mouth healthy. I am a board certified, full freak-out, breaks-out-in-a-sweat dentalphobe, and Dr. Chavez has helped me turn my fears around. Dr. Chavez's practice is unconventional in the best possible ways. For one, she returns phone calls and e-mails. For two, she follows-up with you after treatments. Three, she plays good music and not the creepy, "soothing" stuff you associate with The Chair. She takes her time. She's upfront about what's going on in your mouth, and involves you in decision making. She makes a genuine effort to get to know you. Dr. Chavez even tries to make her practice as green as possible. Really, I could go on and on. Like I said, a trajillion to the power of infinity stars. If every experience with dentistry in your life so far has made you shudder at the thought of going to a dentist, you need to go see Dr. Chavez. This woman is going to redeem the trade. read more

What I like about Dr Chavez is the wednesday evening appointments. Angie at the front desk is more than helpful with my crazy schedule and calls to remind me of my appt. Lets face it most people don't want to go to the dentist, but I don't have that fear at Dr Chavez's office. She make's it a painless experience and she has a very gentle touch. read more

Dr. Chavez has been my dentist for 4 years now. Even though I now live in San Diego, I make the trip because I can't imagine getting the attention and quality that I've gotten accustomed to here anywhere else. Starting Invisalign now and will be returning even more often but she is totally worth it. Highly recommend her. She's great for kids and adults alike. read more

Others here have already expressed so well and in detail everything that's great about Dr Chavez and her staff. They are indeed extremely professional and warm, attentive and communicative, skilled and empathetic. Yes, all that. Dr Chavez and all her staff also build a long-lasting relationship with their patients. They are our (medical) family. I've been going to Dr Chavez for several years and when my kids were of age to see a dentist, I brought them too. Kids are so well taken care of, too. I simply would not go anywhere else when it comes to our dental health. On a side note, coming from a different country, with different views on dental care than what is common in the US, I must say I feel very safe and respected as a patient. Thank you Dr Chavez and each and every one of you on her team. read more

Had an great experience here. The staff were so kind and helpful. The office was very clean. I was comfortable throughout my entire visit and would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for an experienced and friendly dentist. The chairs even have little massagers built into them (: read more

Briana has taken over Jane Franklin's practice and I am a holdover from Jane's. I have been very happy with Briana and her people. read more

Best dentist I've ever been to. I had a really good dentist in Vegas but Dr. Chavez raised the bar even more. She's very nice and friendly.. Everyone in their office is very courteous and kind. Me and my husband came in for our cleaning with our son and we planned to take turns in taking care of him.. but my son wanted me for sometime and they let him be with me. That's pretty awesome!! We even ditched our pediatric dentist just because we love this place so much, and they do take kids. So now, our while family goes here.. Dr. Chavez also listened to my concerns and she developed a treatment plan for me. Oh!! Can't forget about their warm/cool neckpicllos and massage chair! Yay! Hands down, if you're looking for a dentist, this is the place to go!!! read more

My wife and I have been going to Dr. Chavez for almost 10 years not. She and her staff are friendly, caring, and considerate. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. I've had some dental issues (just part of getting old) and they have always made me feel at eased. I've moved further from her office, but I still make the drive for my appointments. Can't see myself going anywhere else. read more

I love this place!! They are nice and not quick to do a bunch of procedures. I came for a second opinion on something and just felt so much more at ease and trusting. Highly recommend!! read more

We fly 6 hours to see Dr. Chavez! Seriously! When we moved to the East Coast last year due to a job transfer, we decided that when we came back to Orange County to see our family, we'd continue seeing Dr. Chavez as our regular Dentist. Her office is very flexible and fits us in during our brief stays in California. Both my Wife and I agree that Dr. Chavez has the lightest touch and is the most gentle Dentist we have ever visited. A big bonus is that her staff and Angie at the front desk are very sweet and genuinely concerned for your comfort. Do yourself a favor and book your next dental exam with these great folks! read more

Dr Chavez is awesome. My three year old had so much fun and asked me when we could come back! ha!

My former dentist of 22 years sold their practice and retired. The new dentist was qualified, but I had an 18 year old bridge with a small cavity right at the gum line. He wanted to remove and replace the bridge, and possibly do an implant. About $10,000 so I started asking around for referrals from friends. I went to see Dr Chavez, and she told me she would NOT remove the bridge, but just fill the cavity and that is what she did and it was a fantastic, pain-free experience. But I am not done. She sent me to an endodontist, as something looked a bit 'off' with my xrays. He in turn, took a quick CT scan and the dental part is fine. However he noticed inflammation in my sinus and urged me to see my ENT which I did. My sinuses are badly inflamed and I have infection and so will be having a procedure to drain them. The ENT also noticed that the post of one of the anchor teeth of the bridge, may be touching the sinus wall. Once the sinuses are drained, I may need a sinus lift and bone grafts, which is fine. I have had bone grafts before but many years ago. So by Dr. Chavez taking a more reserved dental approach, and sending me to a great partner, I found that I needed a medical procedure that I may not have realized. I am looking forward to having this done and starting my dental hygiene cleanings done, every quarter. Oh, and Dr Chavez actually called me TWICE herself, after she did the filling, and again, after I saw the endodontist. That is not something I have experienced. I am grateful to have found her. read more

I'm definitely someone that cringes why I hear the "D" word... it's been a while. That being said my experience with Dr. Chavez and her staff really turned me around. The service and care from the entire staff was top notch. Dr. Chavez really makes you feel like she's there to help, professional and caring. I really felt taken care of and my mouth feels 100 times better. read more

Is there a hidden option to select 10 stars some where? Simply put, Dr. Chavez and her entire office staff rock! She's extremely gentle, friendly, upbeat, professional, and makes sure to thoroughly explain everything. Her entire office staff is fantastic, and my experience was great from start to finish. Honestly, I don't think I could have found a better dental office.Trips to the dentist have gone from bleh to amazing since I started going here. Seriously, expect nothing but the best with them. Dr. Chavez, Angie, Irene, and Whitney.....Thank you all so much! read more

This is long overdue!!! But love love love Dr Chavez!! I have been seeing her since May for my regular checkup and then Invisalign! She is so sweet and really does have the best bedside manner. Her staff also is so friendly and accommodating. So glad my realtor referred me to her!! And now I refer her to anyone/everyone who is in search of a dentist! I can't wait to bring my child here! read more

My initial visit with Dr. Chavez was a pleasant one. Everyone in the office is so nice. I had X-Rays done and a cleaning. All went seamlessly and they definitely make you feel comfortable knowing that people don't like the feeling of going to the dentist. I got a hot towel wrapped around my neck and the chair was a massager as well. Dr. Chavez was so nice. She has such a great aura and super personable. I love how cheerful she is and you can tell she loves what she does. The thing I loved most about this visit was that I wasn't waiting forever to be seen. A lot of times I find myself sitting in the lobby waiting until dentist's are done with patients. I understand sometimes things take longer but I used to wait for eternity with my last dentist. She is good with time management and you are in and out of there at the times they scheduled you for. I am so glad I found Dr. Chavez's office. It will make going to the dentist not such a traumatizing experience anymore. read more

I am so glad we were referred to her! Dr. Chavez has done a great job with my boyfriend teeth! I would highly recommend her if you need a Dentist in Irvine! Her staff if amazing as well! read more
