I had an amazing experience here at dental 2000. They did an amazing job on my cleaning, and informing me on next steps regarding my teeth. The office was very clean and very professional. I will definitely be back again. read more

This dentist is a joke. They'll sell you a "warranty" with a smile, but the second you actually need it, they'll twist the fine print and refuse to stand behind their own work. Instead, they push you toward the cheapest patch job possible--something that saves them money while leaving you with a bigger problem down the road. It's not about patient care here; it's about padding their pockets. They cut corners, dodge responsibility, and act like you should just be grateful they're offering anything at all. Dentistry is supposed to be about trust. If you value your teeth, your wallet, and your sanity, find literally any other dentist. This place is nothing but a scam wrapped in a white coat. read more

Dental 2000 provided me great care and service with my teeth. I recently came in for a cleaning, and I had not had my teeth cleaned in awhile. The staff here were able to provide a deep cleaning and whitened my teeth to a level I had not had in at least ten years. Also, I had previously had braces and retainers, and unfortunately I had a cavity that started at the base of the backside of one of my front teeth where a previous dentist had not removed the glue from an area. Nimesh was able to diagnose the problem, and while I needed a crown, he was able to quickly fit me in his schedule to put in a temporary replacement, and then later the long term crown. The crown looks exactly like my other teeth, performs well with apples, and harder foods to eat. It's also perfectly placed around my gum line and easy to clean. My teeth are so much better now, and very grateful to Nimesh and his whole team for their excellent service. Everyone was kind, professional, and made me feel like a first class customer. The office was also professionally designed, very clean, and the cost of service was reasonable for the Irvine area. I would definitely recommend Nimesh and his team at Dental 2000. read more

Dr. Patel and his staff in Irvine should be avoided. I was a patient and had 5 implants done in Irvine in September 2024. They all have failed or were so poorly placed that they are not usable for crowns. Dr Patel destroyed the bone in the front lower jaw area to where the implant had no chance of taking but yet he stuck it in anyway and jammed the area with bone graft hoping that it would somehow recover. I was in horrible pain for weeks afterward and he lied to me and told me the surgery to place the implant went great! I had to go see another oral surgeon to get a second opinion of why I was in such pain and he showed me how Patel had broke the bone and drilled out the backside of the bone . he told me to demand a refund and have Patel remove all of my implants as they were all unusable. I went to Patel and told him what the other oral surgeon told me and so he admitted that it was a mess and he had lied to me and he removed this one very loose implant but refused to remove the others as it required another oral surgery and he would not do it for free He offered a full refund but has never sent the check and now the office will not return my calls? I have had terrible pain and suffering and all of this was for not. The other oral surgeon told me that all 5 implants should never have been attempted. Mira, and Vineeta (The sales staff) in Irvine also misled me and when I asked them why I was in so much pain told me that this was normal and that the surgery went great (lies). read more

How it will be done, and when it will be done. State of the art technology top notch! I would recommend anybody a thousand times. read more

horrible!!!!! dont waste your time!!!!! i went in just for a consult, and i didnt even make it in to see the doctor, who was running late, and wasnt even in the office yet!!!! then i was rudely greeted by the receptionist who is very unprofessional!!! she told me that they dont take my insurance. i had asked her 10 times before i came in if they accepted my insurance, and the receptionist said yes!!!! she was so over whelmed with her duties up front that she was actually having a dam anxiety attack right in front of me!!!! i couldnt believe she was working with her unwelcoming, and over exhausted attitude!!! so, she told me to fill out the paper work anyway, and to apply for a loan without even seeing the doctor for my consult!!!!! omg!!! this place only wants money!!! then there was a language barrier because she could barely speak or understand english!!!! disgusting and unprofessional!!! they never even apologized after i refused to sign any loan and then walked out before the doctor came in late!!!! i wouldnt bring my dam dog there!!!! pathetic and unprofessional!!! i think they discriminate if your american and not persian!!! read more

I had major surgery that had to pull all of my teeth and put in 10 implants and I have to say they are the very best!!! Dr Patel hands are very surgical also Jose and staff are awesome and friendly I highly recommend them to anyone I've already referred 2 people to them. read more

I've never had such a thorough teeth cleaning before! I was actually in for an implant, and at every visit Dr Patel does a complimentary teeth cleaning and polish because he notices my calculus build up. And I must say, my teeth have never looked more shiny and white, even after a deep cleaning! I just wished I lived closer so that he could be my regular dentist. My implant was also reasonably priced compared to other offices I looked at, it's definitely my go to place for major dental work from now on read more

Dr. Patel is very kind and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend if you want a great dental experience!!

Office was in a good area with easy parking around. Doctor and staff are very professional and explained my options thoroughly. I can tell they put a lot of attention, detail, and focus into their treatment. I can not thank them enough!!! read more

After years of dealing with Walnut Dental, I went to Dental 2000 to have an implant done. Disregarding that their cost was considerably less, their service and professionalism was levels higher. Great place, excellent doctor, wonderful and knowledgeable staff! read more

Watch out for this Dental Facility, they are most intrested in $$$$$ not your teeth they advertise a low price for Dental Implants but "suggest" that the higher priced option is much better. They smile in your face while picking your pocket. read more

The advertised price of $699 implant was nothing more than a "BAIT & SWITCH game!! Total waste of time for more than an hour to be told the real price of $4200...!!! Balking at that was a second offer to a reduction to $3000! At that point there was no need for anymore conversation, that was when I left there without a word..!( They may have state of the art equipment, yet they don't have the basic ETHICAL sense of honesty!!( read more

doctor patel is extremely patient and calm dentist ,even when i was 200% upset at his most disappointing service of bait and switch by having given me twice 4 cosmetic crowns with 4 grooves at the root of each crown ! i politely asked him to have my front cosmetic crowns as nice not flare out like the dental model he showed and promised! he agreed no no hideous unprofessional groove like a mini stepladder again making my upper lip puffy like cotton is inside my upper lip = extremely embarrassing but he did not keep his promises of 4 non-flared front crowns. thus i give zero star to both his associates dental labs. the technician in dental lab in burbank was very friendly , but zero star for the extremely hideous 4 front cosmetic crowns my iphone technician said the dentist cosmetic work is as good or bad as his dental lab! his 2 associate lab technicians in 2 cities produced 4 unprofessional flared out super thick built up all slanted about 15-20 degrees angles front crowns with 90% color 90% too white i asked the record of 2nd dental lab what color number he used ? the same as suggested by doctor patel office helping me to choose a color not matching or shockingly fain front i am still 200% shocked twice by how hideous the 4 front chis 2 associate dental labs in 2 cities. the owner was not friendly and he is also the dental technician of the first dental lab received from me zero star refused to give me doctor patel's model of my teeth conclusion: i hope dr patel will compensate for the various sudden pain he inadvertently gave to me! since july 2020. i have no plan to come back again to doctor patel who also accidentally slipped his brand new mini polishing disk cutting my upper right corner of my lip making me suffer sore open mini wound on upper right lip more for 2 weeks! until my upper lip cut by his new mini disc finally healed 2 days ago after scabbing and bleeding when i talked etc. yes, i did say to him immediately: u hurt my lip with your mini polishing disc. his first time to use that brand new disc on me? no one is perfect. dr patel also gave me sudden pain from his 4 poorly produced front crowns since june 4,2020 from oc register weekly dental ads . he did try 4 times to adjust or file down a little the grossly flared oversized front crowns . in june 2020, doctor patel also did not cover my nostrils and a lot of dental water drip down to my ear = i was 90% dizzy all day suddenly for over a week (i went to my g p doctor who examined my ears and informed me of dental water inside my ear ) his optimism was excellent = he kept saying : it is work in progress... it will be better ... but still zero luck for my front 4 crowns his efforts was genuine. 3 or 4 stars depending on how long he left me on the dental chair to step out and work on another patient !? but i give zero star for his fast talk to justify his ladder step up groove and super flared out front crowns i also give zero star for a) unexpected sudden pain in 4 front ugly flared out b) totally off color front crowns c) not keeping his promises of non flared out and no groove step up ladder crowns d) having slipped polishing disc and cutting my lip e) his secretary not agreeing for partial refund for my 5 months pain and sudden pain to bite apples rice crackers toasts pizza etc... please please pray for me that the sudden pain from his 4 slanted oversized front crowns would stop soon ‼⁉ honestly dr patel and other patients if u were in my situation of bad luck from a newspaper weekly dental ads? would you want to go back to any dentist to be victim of more and more sudden extra pain read more

This dentist is the best in town! He is the only one I trust with my teeth! I would highly recommend Nimesh to any and all. Great work at an affordable price also. read more

Dr Patel and his staff are very professional and friendly. That being said, I experienced a TOTAL bait and switch. I booked an appt. and informed them that I had a coupon for an implant, Abutment and crown, and that I had already had the tooth extracted and bone graft placed. When I arrived at the office , I was informed that the Doctor has no intention of doing an implant for that cost........I have 4 implants that were done in that fashion and they are all fine. Instead,,,,I was told he will do a "special" improved method....blah blah blah...Got the same , exact quote that Terry K did....... Instead of a pateint,,,I left there feeling like a Mark !! They should be ashamed of these ridiculous coupons of which they have NO intention of EVER honoring . Screw you , Dental 2000 , just like you wanted to screw me !!!! felt like I was dickering for a used car,,,this is shameful. Plus I drove an hour in the pouring rain to get there !!!! I feel like an idiot ! Thanks for the kick in the ass !! I wish that going to the dentist was more about caring for you and less like going to a car lot,,,,they ought to start calling it the Tooth Lot,,,,because these guys are nothing more than used car salesman....... Funny thing is,,,I could tell by the look the receptionist gave me ,that the coupon was utter BS ! So........ here's that review I promised you !!! read more

Dr. Patel is great and attentive! His goal is to make sure that you are happy with the result and services.

For their cosmetic treatments Do Not Go. First of all, they are not easy to find and don't make it easy to find. They're not updated on their Google address and they're hidden away in a building of offices that looks like a parking structure in an alleyway with no indication whatsoever of where they are. I called them and although they were nice their instructions were horrible. I went in for a PRF under eye treatment and the doctor couldn't explain a simple question and kept trying to get me to watch a video about PRF - I explained I know what it is and that's why I'm here but he kept repeating the same script to me and it felt very weird. He also stated that PRF requires monthly treatments - no other injector/expert ever said this they've all said it requires 3 sessions a year -. He then proceeded to point out issues on my face that were non existent/false to upsell I guess even though I was only there for undereye. The location and equipment looked very old and outdated. I really do not recommend this place. I walked out not doing my treatment because of the bad feeling I had and also one of the injectors who I never spoke to and was not in the room at all came into the room later to tell me to not do it because she felt like I had high expectations and PRF won't show any results. Mind you, I never once stated my expectations and frankly my expectations were low. All I wanted to know was the difference between micro needling PRF and just injecting PRF Under the eye and they could not answer. I asked for a refund and they said they don't know how to refund a Groupon because they redeemed it. I now have to figure it out myself and hope they follow through with a refund. This place is not professional. read more

I was returning for a second implant, as it was reasonably priced and his work was adequate. After speaking to the same front desk employee, they assured me that the dentist would love to honor same (might be a couple hundred more)cost as the original implant that was completed a year prior. I went in and had x-rays, met with Dr. Patel. Then I met with the most unprofessional new office staff who was insulting and placated the whole dialogue. She insisted that we don't really "pay for insurance, its free money". The cost of the implant, that was relayed to me, was OVER double what the original cost. I was so disappointed that I reached out to Dr. Patel. I sent him a confidential personal letter via email(as suggested on their site), explaining everything. I shared my frustration and concern about the treatment plan that was explained to me by his very unprofessional staff employee. After several months,He still has never replied. I felt this needed to be shared. I give out positive YELPS all the time, when deserved. This deserved a 0! This YELP needs to let everyone know to proceed with caution. Respectfully, L read more

I visited this dentist in response to $699 ads for a dental inplant. Turns out the cost was really $3,700. A total "bait and switch" used car sale approach. This should be illegal but is surely unethical. read more

Dr. Patel and his staff at Dental 2000 are amazing! I've gone to Dental 2000 for years and have always been treated with the best customer service and care. Dr. Patel goes out of his way to ensure amazing treatment for his patients and is always willing to find creative solutions for difficult situations. Despite the difficulties of COVID-19, Dental 2000 has come through for me on several occasions and I'll be sure to only return to them for my dental needs. read more

Thank you Dr.Patel and TC the assistant for helping me out with my missing tooth, I am able to chew again on that side.

I HIGHLY recommend this dental office! The dentist here is extremely knowledgeable and great with pain management. The ladies at the front desk are SUPER friendly. Mari and Tara are extremely helpful . I never had a long wait either. You won't regret coming here read more

This is a very shady dental office. We should have listened to the one star reviews and never gone here. They are not ethical and will not give the patient the quality of care they deserve. Teresa has no place working in a business like this. She is the worst! The dentist was good. They have messed up the transplant and only care about money. We are seeking legal means and considering filing a complaint with the dental board about this. read more

Purchased the GROUPON*** Front desk was nice, but unorganized My appointment was at 10. Started my actual teeth cleaned at 10:50. Teeth cleaning was sup par. He cleaned it really fast and rough. My gums bled a lot and I was done in 10 mins. TEN MINUTES?! I noted my concern for how fast he finished because every teeth cleaning I've had has been an hour. The dentist office itself looked outdated and it was cramped. I also wanted to CHECK-IN for the free toothbrush and hygiene kit (as it says on the yelp) but the receptionist asked me to write a review in order to get the toothbrush and hygiene kit. I opted out and left. I don't like businesses that pressure you to write good reviews in order to gain a reward they advertise on yelp. Parking was fine. It was around other medical offices, so plenty of parking. Won't be back again. read more

Dental 2000 - General Dentistry Near Me - Irvine, California

My name is Roman Basin. I have been a customer of Dental 2000, in Irvine, since 2015. I have been going there for regular teeth maintenance (cleaning/ check ups) twice a year, as well as getting 7 teeth implants done (4 implants in 2015, 2 implants in 2017, and 1 implant in 2019). Dr. Patel did a good job in 2015, and the price was reasonable when compared to the industry pricing in our area. That's why I returned in 2017. This time it did not go as well. After the implants were finished in 2017, I developed an awful infection and Dr. Patel had to completely redo the implants. I reluctantly returned in 2019 for 1 more implant to complete all the work. At this point in 2019, Dental 2000 hired a Treatment Coordinator, named Mari L. The title on her card does not match her job description. Mari L does not coordinate anything. She is worse than a Used Car Salesperson. I spent more time with her, than Dr. Patel. She created a price chart with unbelievably high price rates and tacked on unnecessary procedures, that were priced at least twice higher than anyone would normally charge. I then asked to talk to Dr. Patel directly, after my unfortunate encounter with Mari, and he was very reasonable and reduced the price to one that was customary and fair. I did not have any medical issues with my last implant in 2019. That's why when my adult daughter needed an implant, I referred her to Dental 2000 and Dr. Patel. At the same time, we found a Groupon Deal for Dental 2000 for 1 implant with abutment and crown for $1,499 (regular price $3,499). I called the dental office and inquired about the Groupon deal that they advertised. I was told not to purchase the deal on Groupon before having my daughter come in for an office consultation Secondly, I was told that the office prefers not to share the profits with Groupon, and they would honor the Groupon price of $1,499 for all listed services, just have her come in. My daughter went to her scheduled appointment/consultation. She waited almost an hour to be seen. She spent about 5-7 minutes with Doctor himself, and then the heavy selling started. It was the same "Treatment Coordinator", Mari L., that I had a bad experience with in 2019. She did not want to hear about the Groupon Deal. She proceeded to hard-sell/ quote a price of $3,600 plus added another line item, a"Sinus Lift" for $1,500 (the price for this procedure in our area is typically $800-$850). I called 3 offices in our area, as well as did an internet search, to verify pricing. When I saw the written proposal from Mari L., I called the office twice and both times spoke with Mari L. She was unpleasant, rude, and short with me. She refused to answer any questions directly. She was worse than any politician and/or used car salesperson. Both times I asked for Dr. Patel to call me back, and also asked to talk to the Office Manager. Mari L. refused even to provide me with the name of the Office Manager. I was told by Mari L. that Dr. Patel and/or the Office Manager will call me back, but nobody ever did. After waiting for 2 weeks, I decided to write this review. How does Dental 2000 expect people to come to their office, and rely on other customer referrals, when they are represented by a pushy salesperson, rather than a good, quality dentist? The salesperson's agenda was only to price gouge the customer and cheat another business, in this case, Groupon, rather than build a respected business. Coordinators like Mari L. should not be allowed to work in Dental offices, or any other industry that requires working with clients, because she exhibited anything but the qualities of being a professional, or an honest person. I put the blame on Dr. Patel, who employs such an individual that is clearly not in the dentistry business anymore but rather focuses on the big money cheating business. I have also filed a complaint with Groupon, BBB, and The American Dental Association regarding this matter. read more

So my mom finished both Chemo and Radiation therapy, my mami is a survivor, as a result she needed 6 implants; that's a lot of money. After much soul searching I finally came across Dr Patel, and let me tell you we are extremely happy and thankful. The process has been phenomenal, the front office staff is very sweet and helpful, Tara the office manager, Kathy who helped with our financing and Maritza who always made sure we had our prescriptions or anything else we needed, and Dr Chandni who is always smiling and asking my mom "let me know if you need anything" it was very comforting to know my mom was in good hands. We came in today for our finally appointment and its official she's having corn on the cob and steak tonight ! Thank you God that I found this place, worth the drive and the time and everything else We found our dentist for life ! Did I mention how they teach you about your teeth ? And our hygiene ?

I was first introduced to Dental 2000 from my friend Narat & they advertise in the local newspaper. I was looking into getting a implant for myself & my fiancé. Dental 2000 has a wonderful staff!

If you need a dental implant don't hesitate to call them, Theresa their front office is such a doll! Thank you dental 2000 for giving me my smile ;) back! read more

The dentist does a decent and professional job. I've only been here once, and was satisfied with the experience. My wife has been coming here for years and recommended the 4 stars. Be careful about how you agree to let them use your personal info. Within a few minutes time, I just received 8 texts and 2 emails with some lame promotional offer. I believe it said that if I make an appointment, give a referral, or create a review on yelp I would be entered into a raffle for an iPad Mini. Here's your review. How do I get my raffle winnings? In summary, good dentistry, but the lame marketing needs to work out some kinks. read more
