Original Review: I had a crown I needed re-cemented and this man didn't check the fit or my bite…read morebefore sticking it in. He didn't check the margins or even remove the old cement from the tooth. I told him multiple times that it felt horrible and he shrugged and sent me on my way (after paying him). The crown fell out 2 hours later. Borderline malpractice. He obviously doesn't care about the quality of his work. Not only would I not recommend, but I will actively warn people to avoid him. Multiple dentists I've told have referred to him as a quack. Save your time and money. *Update 1: was reimbursed for this "service" after the crown fell out, which I felt was decent. But after reading this yelp review, in which i stated fairly my experience with this dentist, *he called me* and then re-billed me, claiming that the crown did not properly fit (in which case, he should've said something at the appointment, no?). I have since gone to a dentist in Fremont who had no problem fitting the crown and cementing it properly. At this point, I'm considering contacting a consumer affairs attorney and whichever licensing bureau is relevant. **update 2: I didn't have time to listen to the full voicemail when it was initially received (it was almost 3 minutes long), and I have just discovered that at the end of it Dr. Alderete expressly stated that he would rescind the second billing if I remove my negative yelp review. Obviously, I will be filing a complaint with the DCA imminently as this is explicitly vindictive billing and extortion.

Dr. Schellentrager is a "business" dentist. After your first visit you will end up in a room with…read morehe and his business manager, typically with a very expensive treatment plan to bring your teeth to what he considers an optimal state. I have visited several dentists who operate in this manner. I am not implying he is not a highly skilled dentist., nor that one's teeth would not look great when he completed all of this work, but I just need the basics: cleaning, fillings, and crowns, as needed. Most reviews indicate that he is perceived as competent, but it is jolting when you are presented a treatment plan in the tens of thousands of dollars. There was a sense of indignation when I declined to initiate services given "all the time we spent putting together this plan." Perhaps if I was wealthy I might have considered him, but I am just interested in the basics. I followed up the visit with a dentist I had been seeing in the North Bay for some years (for a second opinion), recommended by another dentist I had seen for over ten years. He told me I had no cavities and all of the work proposed was unnecessary, other than for cosmetic purposes. I found an honest dentist who met my needs very well in Aptos.

As a long time 'dental-phobe', I am always apprehensive before an appointment. The crew at Soquel Dental go above & beyond to help me manage my anxiety, and never make me feel embarrassed or ashamed for my fears. I never feel rushed during my visit, as they are patient, calm and take the time to explain what is happening. I am offered headphones, videos, fidgets, nitrous - whatever I need! The staff members are always kind and supportive, and I am grateful to have found a dental office that I will continue to visit. It is a 'pay-up-front' office, however, they will submit paperwork for Delta reimbursements

I had a tooth pulled and a couple of cavities filled by Dr. Shyba. The process was unnecessarily…read morepainful. The dentist I have now (Five Gables on Mission) is incredibly gentle and numbs my mouth with gel before inserting the needle that numbers the gums, making the experience completely painless. In contrast, the work done by Shyba felt so harsh and rough, and when he pulled my tooth, it felt like a pair of construction pliers trying to rip a tooth out. It took about 45mins to pull one tooth. I also developed a pretty nasty infection. My new dentist tells me it is a protocol to prescribe antibiotics even before a tooth removal to ensure one does not have a chance to fester. I was never prescribed antibiotics by Dr.Shyba. I noticed an extreme amount of pain and a foul smell, sent photos, and went into the office to have Shyba look at it. I also have a very high pain tolerance, so when I think something hurts, it's incredibly alarming. He brushed me off and said it was normal. It wasn't until the infection smelled like a rotting carcass that I was finally taken seriously in a checkup on my tooth removal. He didn't apologize for how long it took to take me seriously. One positive note- The front office staff were always very kind.

Upon first entering the door we were greeted by professional, welcoming staff that made sure all of our paperwork was in order. The patient I was bringing in needed extensive dental work and Dr. Perkins generously offered to take her on as a patient. After a particularly difficult appointment, Dr. Perkins followed up with a personal phone call to reassure me that he was aware that the appointment was unusually difficult and addressed some unspoken questions I had. Talk about intuitive! Each of his staff members were courteous and encouraging. The greatest moment was today, when this young girl told me her mouth was still sore, from the latest extraction, but it was healing and she could never remember a time in her life when her teeth had been pain free. Dr. Perkins and his staff literally made a life changing difference. I would comfortably recommend this dental office to anyone. They are a judgement free, service oriented office that truly cares about the individual!

First, she…read moreput on the numbing agent but then didn't come back for 45 minutes and it was all completely inactive by then. I felt everything fully and it was excruciatingly painful. I kept telling her that it was too painful and she just seemed inconvenienced rather than concerned. In the end, the color wasn't any different than my regular lip color, and I definitely like an all-natural, subtle look so for me to feel that way says something. The main draw of the blushing for me was to line just outside the lips to make them look fuller but she didn't even do that. When I asked her about it, she told me we would do that in a second session but when I booked and spoke about the procedure with her, I was never told I would have to come back for a second session. It was so incredibly painful and with lackluster results that I just never came back. It ended up being a waste of my money, time, and a LOT of pain.
