My daughter came in to get her wisdom teeth removed and was absolutely terrified. There were several moments where I thought she might refuse to go through with it, but Dr. Yagoubian and his team showed so much compassion, patience, and understanding. Instead of turning us away, they took the extra time to talk to her, soothe her anxiety, and gave her medication to help calm her down so they could complete the procedure smoothly. They truly went above and beyond for us! If you or anyone in your family needs oral surgery or dental work, this is 100% the place to go.

    I'm a bit heartbroken with this review. First of all Dr Boots is absolutely AMAZING at what he does…read moreno doubt about that. I can agree with those comments that say he's absolutely great in every aspect he's gentle, understanding, and doesn't push procedures you don't need like others do. Almost every time I've gone to him for over 10 years he's been the best with all my dental needs as well as my families. As a small practice I understand why he doesn't take any new clients cause his hours and his family needs are important and I understand that and respect that. When it comes to the front office it can be a bit frustrating & upsetting at times when phones aren't answered during work hrs or when appointments are canceled so last minute. I understand there are emergencies but contacting patients is important as well because they stop what they do to be there on time and part of customer service is communicating that. I've had pretty bad pain these past few days on a top right molar that I'm sure is going to be a Root Canal but I haven't been able to get a hold of anybody. I've called when they just open and have had to come in person during their work hrs and they are closed. No sign as a warning for patients. I understand the holidays are coming and at times they do close but I feel posting it in their front door or something would be the professional thing to do or The Staff taking care of that but at times it seems they don't care. The hours they have on their Yelp doesn't match in reality. I've tried calling several times and it's the same recording since we started coming 10 years ago it rings 2-3 times and then voicemail that It feels they never get to. I don't think I'm asking for a lot to be in the loop and know they will be closed from this date to further noice if that's the case. Maybe a new recording would be great it takes a few minutes to make one that sounds friendly and a bit more professional in my defense. Like I said I'm heartbroken because I really genuinely love coming to Dr. Boots but a bit more effort has to go into the front to feel some sort of compassion or to feel heard when someone is going thru some sort of pain and especially someone who is a recurring customer of 10+ years and has referred so many people here.. As desperate as I am I contacted another Dentist that gave me an appointment for Friday and even sent a text as a reminder and to save on my calendar.. that's all it takes and I felt heard. That's all...

    After my dentist of 24 years retired, I struggled to find a suitable replacement -- until now. The…read moreinterim providers did not meet my expectations for professionalism and patient care. However, Dr. Boots has far exceeded those expectations. He took the time to listen to my concerns, explained the necessary treatments clearly and thoroughly, and provided exceptional care. I have complete confidence in his expertise and trust him wholeheartedly to manage my dental health for years to come.

He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything in great detail along with answering all of my questions with much patience. I was especially impressed with the surgical planning report and how much detail and time went into creating that. Dr. Huang called me to go over every little detail of the report so I knew what to expect as well as answered my questions. It's been 6 weeks since my double jaw surgery and genioplasty and I am so happy with my results so far. There's still a ways to go with recovery, but I'm finally able to breathe through my nose and feel much more rested when I wake up and throughout the day. My airway has greatly improved as well. Throughout my recovery Dr. Huang has been quick to respond to my questions or concerns that I have. He even adjusted his schedule for me on multiple occasions after my bands broke. Dr. Huang has been so caring supportive throughout this journey. I am beyond thankful. I highly recommend Dr. Huang!

After getting a second opinion at FACES, we immediately felt confident moving forward with Dr. Crum based on our experience with him and his entire team, and we're so glad we did. From our very first visit, Dr. Crum was exceptional. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, patiently answered every question we had, and made us feel completely at ease. His expertise was evident, but what stood out even more was the genuine care he showed my son. He has a wonderful way of making both kids and parents feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. Dr. Crum also brought in Dr. Stafford, the dentist anesthesiologist, who was equally outstanding. He met with my son and me a few days before the procedure to walk us through exactly what to expect when "going to sleep." His calm, reassuring approach helped ease any nerves, and on the day of the procedure, everything went exactly as he had described (but even easier, it seemed like!). The entire team at FACES was incredible. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and genuinely personable, making the experience seamless from start to finish. The office itself is modern, spotless, and welcoming, creating an environment that immediately puts you at ease. When your child needs oral surgery, it can be an overwhelming experience. Thanks to Dr. Crum and his amazing team, ours was anything but. They made what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth, reassuring, and incredibly well cared for. If you're looking for an oral surgeon, I can't recommend Dr. Crum and the team at FACES highly enough. They exceeded our expectations in every way. Thank you Dr. Crum and FACES!

    I didn't see many reviews for Dr. Kyle Yamamoto, the other resident oral surgeon and had him…read morerecently. All I can say is -- exceptional. I had wisdom teeth that I didn't get extracted at a younger age due to financial constraints. It was a difficult extraction and we suspected I might have some sinus complications going in. Part of my tooth fractured and I had to come back for a followup to get it removed. I was pretty nervous, but Dr. Yamamoto spent a lot of time describing the procedures and making sure I was comfortable. I had remarkably no pain following either with his instructions and recommendations. Also, the staff were very nice and heartwarming (also fellow bruins!). If you come here and need oral surgery, you can't go wrong with either surgeon. Thank you so much Dr. Yamamoto!! You rock!!

    If you have any anxiety about medical procedures, I suggest seeking a consult with any of the other…read moreoral surgeons in the South Bay that have substantially better reviews and do not resort to teasing a patient for their concerns. For context, my son had to have a tooth removed when he was 7 years old with Dr. Kawahara because he was too anxious to have it done with his pediatric dentist. Now almost 10 years later, we saw Dr Kawahara for a consult on removal for his impacted wisdom teeth. Upon seeing Dr. Kawahara years later and discussing how it had been a while, he teased my son about how he remembers my son crying and screaming before....which in reality my son didn't do in his office - since he had been prescribed anti-anxiety medicine beforehand for the minor procedure. (I think this comment was meant as a joke, but Dr. Kawahara's delivery is very dry; regardless we shrugged it off as a bad attempt at humor and a weird way to attempt to reestablish trust with a patient.) As we began discussing the surgery process for wisdom teeth removal, I shared that our son is slightly anxious about the surgery after hearing friends talk about their experience. With dry humor, Dr. Kawahara teased "most people survive." He repeated this phrase during our consult at least 3 more times. It began to be rude since he clearly heard me attempt to reassure my son about the IV that would be needed and recovery. Dr. Kawahara STILL insisted on repeating the phrase, "but most people survive." It became annoying to the point that I literally asked Dr. Kawahara, "Why do you continue to use that phrase when I have repeatedly expressed my son is slightly anxious about the procedure?" His response was that he was just joking. I found his way with my son to be quite insensitive and lacking in emotional intelligence. My teenage son also found the whole experience off-putting, so we are happily having his surgery done with another oral surgeon. If your dentist or orthodontist initially refers you to this office, I suggest scheduling a consult with another oral surgeon (to avoid wasting $200+ for the consult fee). There are multiple other surgeons with better reviews, so don't settle when you can see someone better.

When I explained that this was incorrect, she dismissed my concern and simply stated that the doctor would decide what I needed.

I have been a patient at this dentist offices for about five years, tolerating previous poor experiences solely due to the convenient location. It is clear they are now overbooking appointments to prioritize profit over patient care, and they no longer show basic concern for their clients' time or well-being. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this practice.

What…read morestands out about Dr. Tchon and his staff is how comfortable and welcoming the entire office feels. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a friendly receptionist, and here's the surprising part--you aren't left sitting in the waiting room forever. Within moments of arriving, you're usually brought back to a treatment room. The entire team treats patients with kindness and professionalism, and Dr. Tchon himself is honest, straightforward, and easy to talk to. He explains things clearly without making you feel rushed or pressured. I'll be honest--I actually look forward to my visits here, which is not something I ever thought I'd say about a dental office. As for my implant surgery, it's still a work in progress, so I can't give a final review on the outcome just yet. However, based on my most recent follow-up appointment, everything appears to be healing and progressing well. I felt compelled to write this review now because exceptional service deserves recognition. The level of care, professionalism, and positive atmosphere at this office has made what could have been a stressful experience much easier. I'll be sure to update my review once the implant process is fully complete.

    I received a VIP experience at TorriMed, from scheduling my appointment to the needed extraction…read more One of my most significant concerns with the service at TorriMed is if they are in my Guardian network. Once confirmed. I told the receptionist about the urgency of my situation, and I was scheduled ASAP. On the day of my appointment, I received a call from the doctor's office asking if I could come in earlier. I did, but I completed the digital intake forms they sent before arriving. I was glad to complete the forms at my own pace at home. Plenty of parking was on site, and the atmosphere was clean, bright, upbeat, and open. I provided the receptionist with my dental referral information. One of the first things I notice is the state-of-the-art equipment. They could have me stand at a machine that scanned my face, and within moments, they had an x-ray of my mouth on the display. Dr. Samuel introduced himself and assessed the situation. I asked if he would be able to do the extraction that day. Dr. Samuel responded, "That's why I called you in earlier so that, if possible, we could do the extraction today." I was all in. So Dr. Samuel prepared me by telling me what to expect and explained a procedure he uses to promote rapid healing. The only drawback for me was the cost of the procedure and that it involved drawing some blood from me. That was the first drawing of blood at the dentist. We came to an agreement that included the Dr. providing a 200-dollar discount. I am happy with the excellent service from Dr. Samuel and his entire staff. One suggestion: pipe some soothing healing vibration music in the surgery room. I highly recommend Dr. Samuel and the TorriMed Oral Surgery and Dental Implants office. I will be back again. When you go, tell them Omar sent you.
