The team is crazy good--super professional, genuinely friendly, and clearly ahead of the game when it comes to modern dentistry. They actually listened to my concerns and mapped out a plan with both short- and long-term options. No pressure, just helpful guidance. Bonus points for the vibe: clean office, great energy, and a crew that makes you feel more like a guest than a patient. I hear they've opened a new Lakeview location that's even closer to me, and I'm absolutely planning to check it out. Modern Smiles, you've got yourselves a loyal fan.

I have always avoided dentists my entire adult life. I had an accident and broke out most of my…read moretop teeth. I was forced to get care. I had to have all of my teeth extracted and got fit for dentures. It was a long experience. Dr Singh made the experience fantastic. She made me feel comfortable from minute 1. She is very knowledgable and she listened to all of my concerns. And she addressed all of my concerns. I've heard nothing but horror stories about people who get dentures. After all of the fittings, when I finally did get my permanent dentures I was very pleased. They fit perfectly with no irritation or issues. It's been over a month now and they still feel very comfortable. It's great to be able to smile and eat solid foods again. If I could leave more than a 5 star review, I would. Dr. Singh took my bad situation and fixed it. My quality of life is so much better after this experience.

Went to another older family dentist after this who said I didn't need any of the recommendations they kept saying I needed to get done and makes sense with a younger dentist who wants to pay off school debt.

Stay away from here and find someone who has been in the business for longer!

Dr. Mullarkey is THE BEST dentist I've had…read more Upon our first appointment, Dr. Mullarkey identified a chronic bone loss issue that no other dentist had pointed out, and I'm so grateful she did because it could've gotten way worse without taking action. In addition to having a few dental issues, I also have dental anxiety, which causes me to ask a million questions :) Dr. Mullarkey is always patient, compassionate and thorough. She makes me feel at ease because I'm confident I'm in good hands. Lastly, the office staff is great. They are friendly and organized and were able to get me in last minute today because I had some tooth sensitivity. I will continue to stick with Dr. Mullarkey and Cusp Dental even though I have to drive 30 minutes to get to their office. I'd definitely recommend them.

Absolutely terrible…read more I visited Elite Dental multiple times over a short period because of a dental emergency, and my experience with Dr. Shin was completely unacceptable. During my first appointment, Dr. Shin took X-rays and told me everything looked normal, suggesting I might have a bite issue. I trusted that assessment, but my pain continued to worsen. Just a few days later, I returned because the pain had become unbearable. Another set of X-rays was taken, and once again Dr. Shin told me there was no dental issue. By this point, my face and cheek were significantly swollen. When the hygienist examined my mouth, she visibly recoiled and immediately asked when I had last seen my primary care doctor. She then brought Dr. Shin in, who also appeared very concerned. Rather than recognizing what turned out to be a severe dental infection, I was told the swelling was not related to a dental issue and that I needed to see my primary care physician immediately. I was also referred to an oral surgeon. The way this was handled left me believing that I might have something far more serious, even oral cancer. Instead of receiving reassurance or a clear explanation, I left terrified that I could have a very severe condition while still having no answers for the horrendous pain I had been experiencing for over a week. After enduring days of excruciating pain, barely being able to eat or sleep, the oral surgeon advised me to see an endodontist before proceeding any further. The very next day, the endodontist performed a scan and immediately identified a severe tooth infection that required an emergency root canal. The infection that Dr. Shin repeatedly failed to diagnose was identified and treated immediately by the specialist. It is incredibly frustrating that despite multiple appointments, repeated X-rays, worsening symptoms, and obvious facial swelling, my infection went undiagnosed while my condition continued to deteriorate. Being repeatedly told there was no dental issue delayed the treatment I desperately needed, prolonged my pain, and caused unnecessary emotional distress. To make matters worse, more than a year later I am now receiving collection calls from a law office over an outstanding $85 bill for the second set of X-rays that Dr. Shin ordered. Those X-rays did not lead to a diagnosis or appropriate treatment and ultimately failed to identify the severe tooth infection that another provider diagnosed immediately. Being pursued for payment for x-rays that, in my experience, provided no benefit to my care only adds insult to injury. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Dr. Shin or Elite Dental. I expected competent care, an accurate assessment of my symptoms, and timely treatment. Instead, I endured unnecessary pain, fear, delays in receiving the care I needed, and now collection calls over charges related to a visit that failed to address the actual problem. Save yourself the time and the trouble and go next door to First Dental Center.

I went there for a regular clean up that is cover by my insurance, after the Dr. Cardenas check my tooth she came back telling me she Could not do a regular cleaning cause what I need was a Deep cleaning and that was 525$ , I said ok well I understand that but can you please do a regular cleaning and other day you do the deep cleaning , and she refuse to do it even thou I had my insurance . So I went ahead and did my appointment somewhere else and they did normal cleaning without any issue and what is even worst is that the other dentist told me I don't even need a deep cleaning. It's amazing how this place they will just squeeze your money and create false testimony so you pay for stuff you don't need. I found out that 3 coworkers when to this place as well and also they told them the same thing " you need the deep cleaning" and there Dr. also refuse to do just the regular cleaning cause that's the one cover 100% by the insurance. Same story they told me. Stay away from this place .... I report this place with the insurance company and I hope everybody that have gone thru this with this people do the same thing. They should shut down , scammers....

My time and presence was completely disrespected at this clinic. My first visit and routine…read morecleaning was mediocre - it was not a thorough cleaning and only lasted approximately 20 minutes. I decided to return for a second visit several months later to see if anything would change. I ended up waiting 1 hour to see the dentist. During this wait, I was not told exactly how long I'd be waiting - just that the doctor would "be with me shortly". After 45 minutes of waiting, I asked an assistant when the doctor would be available and she rudely asked me, "how much time do you want or have"? No apology or understanding in her expression. I then explained to her that I'd been waiting for nearly an hour and that is when she finally brought the doctor. The doctor explained to me that it was her first day and she was double booked. What upset me is the complete lack of regard or respect for someone else's time. If you are aware that you'll be with another patient for another hour, it is your responsibility to inform the other patient who is waiting for you. Needless to say - I will never return to this clinic and I DO NOT recommend them to anyone.

Everything seemed fine until two weeks later when one of her front teeth started turning gray. We called the office and were reassured that all should be fine, teeth bruise, and as long as long as she is not in pain and her gum looks ok we can wait until her next exam which was only a week and a half away.
