Now I am not gonna lie I have been taking my 15 year old daughter to this dental office since she…read morewas 8 and it was grate until about 3 years ago. 3 years go when covid-19 occurred it seems they got lazy and dirty. Such as for one my daughter got braces from there orthodontist and they put the brackets and wire so close to her gums to the point her gums were bleeding and sore almost every day but every time I told the doctor it was just "she just need to brush better". After that I was soon getting tired of my daughter in pain so I had them take them off and I told them and myself I would find a different orthodontist. About 1 year later they said she needed a felling for 2 teeth and I agreed to the felling but it only took as long as 15 mins. Every time she got a filling it would be quick but she would always still have to get more and more every visit. So I followed my motherly instincts and switched dental offices. She had her 1st appointment with the new dentist and they found 3 cavities, 2 of them were so deep they had to numb her 4 times and it took almost 3 hours to get out. They said she is gonna need a root canal within 2 years. I told them how at her last few appointments at the other office everything seemed ok but turns out the Kakar dental group was just putting a clay on the tooth and patching up not actually getting the cavity out. When I found this out I was very upset. So for anyone looking for a dentist office I DO NOT RECOMMEND Kakar dental group.

My child went in for a cleaning and was told she had eight cavities.

I called again on Tuesday, 05/06 to cancel my appointment. I was told it had been canceled on Monday afternoon.

If they can't manage to do something as simple as canceling an appointment, I definitely wouldn't allow them to "practice" their dentistry on me. Maybe this is their way to generate some income from no show fees.

I highly recommend Serene Smiles for your regular dentist! I've been a few times now, and every…read moreexperience has been wonderful. Booking An Appointment Part of the reason consistently taking care of my health is difficult is because navigating websites, setting up accounts, loading information, calling phone numbers, consulting various sources, etc. is mentally exhausting. Serene Smiles makes it SO EASY to book online. Now that I'm a regular, I've also taken advantage of being able to text their number to set or reschedule appointments. I also love that Serene Smiles texts me my appointment information and reminders. It truly couldn't be easier! Your Comfort Is Important Before my very first appointment, I shared during my booking experience that in the past I've had dentists who have grabbed my mouth and roughly poked around without me knowing what they were doing. I shared that my preference is to know what they are doing and why. Serene Smiles exceeded my expectations in every way, first with Sarah as my initial hygienist, and then with Kaitlyn. Both Sarah and Kaitlyn were so kind and patient with me - they explained what they were doing and why, showed me the tools, told me what they were doing, and told me there were some alternatives if I felt discomfort. They consistently asked me if I was comfortable and overall made me feel very cared for. Dr. Zain is also very gentle, and he goes out of his way to explain everything you need to know about your teeth and facial muscles. He also doesn't push unnecessary treatment - he prefers to try less intrusive options and wait to see if there's improvement. After my first appointment was so wonderful, I encouraged my spouse to give them a try, and he has had the same experience. Now I will encourage you to give them a try. You won't regret it!

After their departure I had a root canal there that was not good. Went back many times because it just didn't feel right.

Then, a piece of their grinding/digging equipment was broken off in one of the canals that was treated!! I was NEVER told of either of these problems. I am now paying additional $$s to treat and retreat the canals.
