I went in for a consultation for an extraction of a broken premolar--what remained was a severely decayed root tip. Given my experience, I knew this was a tough case, and I was nervous. Yet, Dr. Fagin performed a surgical extraction of the root tip, bone graft, and membrane placement. In just five minutes, with what felt like a flick of the wrist, my tooth was out--ZERO pain and I was all set and ready to go. The result was a beautifully clean, tight, and well-managed surgical site. From start to finish, the team was well-prepared, efficient, and professional. Mar at the front desk immediately eased my nerves with a kind compliment, and Angeleigh, the assistant, was on top of everything--before I knew it, she was set up and ready to go. The teamwork was seamless. I left humbled and grateful, and I can't recommend them enough!

From the first consultation, it was clear I was in the right hands. Dr. Ahani is calm, focused, and incredibly thorough. He explains everything with clarity and care, which made a complex process feel thoughtful and well-organized from the very beginning. The procedure itself was handled with skill and precision, and every follow-up visit reflected that same standard of excellence. Dr. Ahani takes the time to answer questions, check healing closely, and make sure nothing is overlooked. You never feel rushed -- only well cared for by someone who genuinely takes pride in doing things right. His team is just as impressive. Heather, Lolita, and everyone else in the office are always warm, welcoming, and highly professional. There's a real sense of kindness and coordination at every step. It's clear that Dr. Ahani has built a practice rooted in excellence, empathy, and respect -- and that shows in every interaction. If you're facing a more involved dental procedure and want to be sure it's done right, I can't recommend Dr. Ahani highly enough. He sets the standard for what great oral surgery care should look like.

On the day of the procedure, the staff was kind, organized, and calm, which really helped reduce everyone's nerves. Dr. Ahani's bedside manner was reassuring, and you could tell he is both highly skilled and genuinely caring. The surgery itself went smoothly and right on schedule. Post-op care was just as impressive. We received clear written and verbal instructions, what to watch for, how to manage pain and swelling, and when to call if anything seemed off. They followed up, responded quickly, and never made us feel like a burden. My son's recovery was much easier than we expected, with minimal discomfort and no complications. I'm extremely grateful to Dr. Ahani and his team and would recommend them without hesitation to any parent whose child needs wisdom teeth removed.

This is a longer review, but it's absolutely worth reading if you have the time…read more I'd like to start by sharing that I previously worked as a dental assistant. While I'm no longer in the field, I do have firsthand knowledge of dental practices and procedures--and I genuinely loved the work I did. Dr. Kim is truly exceptional. Having worked with many dentists, I can confidently say I have never seen the level of care, knowledge, patience, and compassion that Dr. Kim consistently provides to his patients. I found Dr. Kim while searching for a dentist for my elderly stepfather, who needed extensive dental work after decades of neglect. In his 70s, he hadn't seen a dentist in over 40 years and required full extractions in preparation for dentures. To complicate matters, he had recently suffered a heart attack, is on medications that make dental procedures more complex, and is not in the best overall health. From the very beginning, Dr. Kim took the time to truly understand my stepfather's situation--not just dentally, but medically as well. He approached his care with a thoughtful, conservative, and team-oriented mindset, which is not something you find with every dentist. Trust me when I say that. Although this has been a long and ongoing process, Dr. Kim continues to go above and beyond in ways that are far from typical. He personally follows up after hours, prioritizes continuity of care, and takes the time to thoroughly explain procedures to both patients and caregivers. He is always accessible for questions via calls, emails, or other communication, and he makes every patient feel seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. I truly cannot say enough good things about Dr. Kim. His level of dedication, communication, and willingness to take on complex cases is rare and deserves recognition. Had I known about him earlier, I may have stayed in the dental field because providers like him make such a meaningful difference. His office staff is equally wonderful--friendly, professional, and supportive--and the office itself is always clean, bright, and up to date. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Kim to anyone looking for a dentist who is not only knowledgeable but also deeply compassionate and committed to patient care. I am incredibly grateful for everything he has done for my stepfather, especially for making him feel respected, understood, and comfortable throughout this journey. Thank you, Dr. Kim and team, for being one of the best dental practices I've ever experienced. Please understand I wished I could truly get across how amazing Dr Kim is and I hope him and his team sees this review and accepts the amount of gratitude I hold to them

I only got to see Dr. Konrad a handful of times before he retired but I can say that he was a…read morecompletely unremarkable dentist in the best possible way. I never had any remarks to make about him because he did everything anyone ever expects a dentist to do. He listened to your problem, took a look around, proposed a solution or two and told you how much each one was going to cost. If something he did didn't work out, he'd have you back to correct the problem. All very normal and fine and not something you run around talking about for any reason. Shortly after his farewell I had an old crown pop off while flossing. Not the end of the world but not something you want to leave for too long either so I set up an appointment with the new guy because I didn't feel like hunting around town for a new patient appointment. The crown was damaged but I didn't have $3K to blow on a new one so the new guy said he could re-cement the old one in and see how much longer it would last for $350, I said fine and we did just that. He seemed very ill-at-ease and awkward throughout the visit--like he really wanted to be anywhere else--but it was all over and done with soon enough. As with most crown placements, what feels okay in the chair after you've had your jaw wedged open for 20 minutes doesn't always feel okay once you go home and start actually chewing on it so some minor adjustments were necessary. I've never had any dentist in any town charge me for follow up adjustments immediately after they'd just glued the thing in, but new guy wanted another $150 for his five minutes after the grinding had been done. I wasn't in the mood to argue about it so I just paid and left but it's really been bugging me ever since. Especially considering the stoic, unconcerned attitude I had to push through just to get him to do his damn job. I get that he didn't make the crown so he might not feel any pressing need to guarantee someone else's work but it still just felt punitive and gross and he very clearly didn't want anything to do with me so I have little choice but to reciprocate the sentiment. Trust fund kids and other little emperors may very well have an altogether different experience than I did.

The front desk staff and Dr. Yang was very friendly and helpful throughout the scheduling and in providing important information about the pre and post oral surgery care. The surgery itself was performed by Dr. Yang, who did an excellent work with the help of his assistant. There was no pain felt throughout the surgery (thank the lord for anesthesia) and Dr. Yang fills you in step by step as he performs so that you know exactly what to expect. The operation lasted about 30-35 mins and I was fortunate that all teeth came out without having to drill. This oral surgery practice does not accept dental insurance, however, if you have dental insurance they will automatically initiate a claim on your behalf to your insurance and the amount reimbursed to you will depend on your insurance; this will include a filed claim for the initial consultation fee as well.

"Not all dentists are created equal." This is the conclusion I reached after Dr. Ronderos treated…read moreme. Let me explain: I went to Dr. Ronderos at the recommendation of my Endodontist, Dr. Jean Yang. I had been going to my regular dentist for 10+ years (not naming names, but let's just say I will not go back to that dentist anymore). For about 2-months, my teeth grinding (bruxism) had gotten worse, and it was giving me progressively worsening SEVERE pain on my left lower molar. When I went to my regular dentist (actually 2-times). Without taking an X-ray for either exam, he visually examined me and concluded that my teeth looked fine. He said to keep using the night guard. And if the pain persists or gets worse, he would recommend a tooth extraction and an implant - due to the worsening pain. After my 2nd (and maybe last) visit, I knew I needed a 2nd opinion. So I went to see my client, who happens to also be a Peridontist (just like Dr. Ronderos). He agreed to examine my left lower molar and took an X-Ray and did a full exam on all the teeth. The X-Ray showed an active infection, so he prescribed some antibiotics, and his recommendation was that I do a Root Canal for that left lower molar, and he gave me a referral to his Endodontist, recommending a Root Canal. Thinking that I would need to do a Root Canal for sure, and wanting to locate a good Endodontist, I called around various Endodontist based on Yelp Reviews and I luckily found Dr. Jean Yang (Woodside Endodontics) on my own. At this point, I am completely on my own, with a severe and worsening tooth pain from severe daily teeth grinding and an active infection, thinking the worst - that I needed a Root Canal ASAP to relieve myself from the daily, VERY SEVERE tooth pain. Dr. Yang took a very methodical approach and gave me a thorough exam, and she first took X-Rays, then examined the teeth carefully, then she recommended to take a CT Scan to ensure there is no crack or fracture on that teeth. Her conclusion, after the detailed exam, is that the Root Canal may not be the correct solution. Given my teeth grinding and bruxism, she said even if she performed a Root Canal and saved that teeth, the bruxism would eventually crack that teeth and the Root Canal would be useless, because I would likely need an extraction and an implant. She said I have a peridontal issue, and she recommended me to see Dr. Ronderos. She said Dr. Ronderos is very busy and it might be difficult to get an appointment. I chose Dr. Ronderos because he was recommended by Dr. Yang, and I really want to best, most qualified dentist to work on my teeth. I was luckily able to get an appointment due to a cancellation, and saw Dr. Ronderos last week. Dr. Ronderos may have saved my teeth and made it unnecessary to do a Root Canal or an Implant. Dr. Ronderos looked at my CT Scans, and he carefully examined my teeth and my bite, and he concluded that I have an uneven bite, causing my teeth to exert significantly more pressure to my left bottom molar teeth. Imagine if that left bottom molar is the only teeth at the highest location, and is the only teeth that comes in contact with the top left molar, essentially getting ALL the pressure exerted throughout the day and into the night with bruxism. And even with the night guard, I would still wake up with a loose, shaky left bottom molar with SEVERE pain because that 1 singular tooth just got pummeled DAILY with all that grinding and pressure. So, Dr. Ronderos explained to me: I have 2 options: Option 1: Extract and Implant. Success rate is 98%. But there is Option 2, which he recommends, which is: adjust the teeth (grind/level down the teeth enamel slightly and grind down the night guard slightly - so that when I bite, the pressure would be evenly distributed throughout all the teeth, and not just on that 1, poor left bottom molar). He did a careful exam with the color strip, asked me to bite down and grind my teeth. He looked at the coloration on my molar, and my night guard, and did some careful adjustments on both the bottom left molar and the night guard. He also tested to ensure the nerve under that bottom left molar is still alive and well, and responsive to electric magnetic test, so that it would be worth saving. After all these tests, and careful adjustments, I left Dr. Ronderos' clinic with a renewed sense of optimism, and asked myself: "Why isn't every dentist like Dr. Ronderos? A dentist who carefully examines the patient and makes proper adjustments to really address the root cause of the problem." I left his clinic with a lingering tooth ache (from the grinding), however, 2 days after Dr. Ronderos' adjustment of my left bottom molar and the night guard, I now no longer feel pain, and I feel like that bottom left molar is becoming stronger and better, and now it no longer hurts. When I wake up, I no longer feel pain, and I don't need a Root Canal or an Implant. Dr. Rondero's and Dr. Yang are the only dentists I trust. Go see them!
