I wanted to take the time to thank Dr Marty & his assistant Lindsey for an excellent experience. I had extractions and new dentures. Dr Marty patiently took the time & care. He gained my trust . He even followed up with me & gave me the confidence!! My smile is amazing!! Thank you for restoring my trust in good dentistry!!!

So far, this is the best dental office we've been to for the kids! The staff is friendly, honest,…read moregentle, and affordable. We had a hard time finding the right dentist because other offices were charging ridiculous prices and recommending unnecessary treatments. We even got completely different quotes from different places, which made us skeptical. Then we found Dr. Gire -- he was extremely helpful, transparent, and reassuring. The kids' teeth are healthy, and they actually look forward to their visits now! The office is very kid-friendly, and the kids love that they get a balloon at the end of their appointment.

One of the worst experiences in my life. My 4 year old had some cavities to take care of. So we had…read moreour first consultation to take x rays. But only x rays of the teeth that needed work for some reason? They did not take X-rays of her entire mouth and we didn't know that. We assumed her entire mouth was X-ray. so two months later, after we were told by the dentist Brandon all her other teeth looked good, she has a big cavity. Probably past the point of repairing and she'll need another cap which is outrageous. Why wasn't an xray of her entire mouth taken? If not why weren't we told to come back and take more X-rays for a more in depth inspection? This could have been caught but due to the negligence of the dentist she has another cavity TWO months later! Absolutely ridiculous. My wife called and very politely asked questions and the lady at the front desk said when you come to you appointment on Thursday you can talk to the dentist. Today she shows up to the appointment and they are refusing to help my 4 year old. They didn't call to cancel or refuse our service. They wanted to embarrass my wife and children and tell them in the waiting room. Brandon refuses to talk to us about it. What a stand up place. Very poorly handled. No apologize was given no explanation from the dentist. Save yourself a headache and more damage to your kids and don't go here.

He made me feel comfortable right away, took the time to listen to my concerns, and explained how we could make a plan to complete everything in stages--starting with the most important issues first. Now, I look and feel so much better, and all my worries have disappeared. If you're looking for a caring, understanding, and skilled dentist, you will not be disappointed with Dr. Fossett!

Honestly - look elsewhere for your children. I have been here several times with my children and…read moresomehow always feel like I am inconveniencing them by being there. Their waiting room is terrible, zero toys, a few plastic chairs - it is not a good environment for children to start out when they are nervous for the dentist. I went recently with my 2.5 and decided it would be my last visit with them - During the exam I was told by one of the female dentists (who was very rushy and unfriendly) that my 2.5 year old son had 4 cavities total, two of which required pulpectomys and that he should be fully sedated for his fillings. I was extremely uncomfortable with putting my young kid to sleep so I decided to consult a different dental office. The other dentist was patient and kind, he looked throughly at my son's teeth. He informed me that he only has 2 cavities and that they could be taken care of easily (no pulpectomy needed). I asked him if he needed to be sedated and he said, "absolutely not." He said he would never want to sedate a young kid for only 2 cavities, when they can easily be done in the office with laughing gas. I honestly feel like the dentist here was just trying to make extra money off me. Why sedate my child and do a full pulpectomy when he didn't need it?!? Do you research before you come here because you may be paying way more for unnecessary treatments.

By the time they brought me back, it was close to closing, and everything felt extremely rushed. The X-rays were done very quickly, and the process was actually painful -- something I've never experienced before. The cleaning was also done very fast. After the appointment, I was told I had two cavities, which shocked me- i have never had cavities and I take really good care of my teeth. I decided to get a second opinion from two other dentists, and both confirmed that I have zero cavities. Because of this experience, I felt uncomfortable with the level of care and professionalism. It honestly felt more focused on treatment costs than on my dental health. I will not be returning. 2 stars because it was clean and the chair I was sitting in for almost an hour was comfortable.

Beware - Second opinion needed on anything they recommend!! I was told by Dr Ferguson and their…read moreperiodontist that I needed a front tooth removed due to bone loss and possible root issue. Wait, what? I had a deep pocket at the gum of the tooth, my tooth was strong, not broken and not loose. They made me believe this was my only option and proceeded to explain that an implant would be the way to go since a bridge wouldn't work due to the root issue. The implant procedure would be 8-9 months and I would have a flipper during that time. It was going to cost me $9k for one tooth!!! Can you imagine the anxiety and stress this caused? I decided to get a second opinion. I researched best periodontist in San Diego and after his thorough examination and panoramic X-rays he was shocked and dumbfounded as to why Santee Smiles periodontist wanted to pull the tooth, he saw no bone loss or root issue. All I needed was a minor gum surgery called Guided Tissue Regeneration that costs $1500 (claim to insurance) and get this, once he was done with the procedure he confirmed no bone loss or root issue!!! Be very careful to believe their treatment plan and get a second opinion. I am changing dentists, don't even want my teeth cleaned here, it always costs me something extra... just a money grab.

They take advantage of military customers. The Navy sent my husband here for work before he…read moreretired. The billing department continually sent us the bill that was supposed to go to the Navy. When we got a collections letter, we called and they said don't worry about it and that they would send it to the Navy. We continued to get the bills until the second collections letter arrived and we just paid it to be done with it. This has been going on for over 6 months. For those who aren't familiar with military medical, they refer you out to civilian practices when they don't have capacity to get you in. All required medical care is covered by the military for Active Duty personnel. Since my husband was retiring, that's what the Navy did. It was a requirement for his discharge from Active Duty and in no way his responsibility to pay. It's really frustrating that this small business could not get their communication figured out, and now we have to try and get reimbursed $1,000 from the military.

We were referred to Dr. Jean Chan by our lactation consultant for our 5-month-old son to be…read moreevaluated for a tongue and lip tie. From the very beginning, Dr. Chan was incredibly thorough. She explained the process in a way that made it easy to understand, walked us through what recovery would look like, and made sure we felt completely comfortable with the post-procedure exercises. She emphasized that the decision was 100% ours to make, based on her expert recommendations, and we never felt pressured. When she took him back for the frenectomy, we were nervous -- but when she returned, he wasn't even crying. In fact, he looked instantly relieved, which gave us so much peace of mind. The precision of the laser she used clearly made a difference, and thanks to her guidance and our consistency with the stretches, his recovery went really smoothly. The entire office was warm and welcoming. The nurses were sweet, and the space is decorated in such a fun, kid-friendly way. A week after his procedure, when we came in for a follow-up, Dr. Chan even took a photo of him in his cute little outfit to share on her office's social media. That small gesture made the experience feel even more personal and thoughtful. Highly recommend Dr. Chan to any parent looking for a provider who is both professional and compassionate. We felt seen, supported, and most importantly, our baby is doing so much better now.
