Agree with Sam E. Probably good place for basic cleanings and nice staff overall but poor quality work. read more

Best Dentist Ever! I wish I still lived in the area I'm miss Dr. Coffey and his amazing staff, and how they took care of my smile! read more

Encinitas Dental Art - General Dentistry Near Me - Encinitas, California

Probably skip this place. The main dentist there isn't great. Ok for cleanings but low quality work & overall dentistry unfortunately. read more

All I can say is AMAZING! Had a cleaning my teeth feel great. Good check up. Doctor was kind and informative. Scheduling was easy. They have great products and take the time to tell you how to use them and improve what you do at home. Historically dental offices have made me feel bad about not Doing my part. Not here! No judgement just extra helpful and educational. THANK YOU read more

Dr Coffey was wonderful and we were loyal to him for over 20 years. He retired and we gave the new practice few chances. There was Dr Thompson who seemed nice and knowledgeable, but she left the new practice when we called to make another appointment, was not there long. They quote one $$ price and charge another. They up sell as soon as you walk in from X-rays to procedures. After several months we found a dentist in Carlsbad. We were hoping to stay but it is not a good fit. read more

I saw Dr. Ismail at Encinitas Dental Art and it was such a great experience! Usually I have a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist because I don't understand what I need to get done from their recommendations and I end up paying a lot out of pocket. I had the exact opposite experience here. Everyone who helped me from the moment I checked in was so kind and knowledgeable. They took the time to really help me understand my dental health and answered my questions. Their office clearly uses best practices and up to date technology. Dr. Ismail has the best bedside manners, she is incredibly compassionate, and gives great quality holistic care. I've never had a dentist review x-rays with me in such detail and I really appreciated it! I had anxiety from going to the dentist in the past but I'm actually happy to visit here again in the future. If you're looking for a dentist, definitely come see Dr. Ismail and her amazing crew! I can't say enough good things. You won't regret it. read more

I went to Encinitas Dental Art for the first time last week. I haven't been to the dentist in over 3 years so I was very nervous. Jen took great care of me and made me feel so comfortable. Highly recommend this dental group for their prompt and professional service! Jen will definitely be my go to during my next dental visit. read more

Dr. Coffey no longer owns or operates the practice. The new people tell you one price and then send you a bill for $1k more. They don't return calls or emails . It has changed for the worse. Find someone else. Lot's of turnover. read more

I have seen Dr. Coffey for years, and was a bit concerned when he sold his practice. He took great care in selecting who would replace him, and it certainly is evident in the care I am receiving from the new team. The office is welcoming, the staff is friendly, and the dentists and hygienists are skilled. After a few visits, I couldn't be happier with the service I am getting. Thank you, Dr. Coffey for leaving all of us in such wonderful hands. Enjoy your golf! read more

I had such a great experience at this office!! Shannon was so gentle and friendly. Both doctors are so thorough and efficient. I love that I can trust in my dental office! Definitely coming back! read more

Dr. Ismail is our favorite dentist of all time!!! She is so caring and kind. She explains the steps of the treatment process with care and detail. I take my legally blind mother there for her cleanings and dental work .. and Dr. Ismail not only provides excellent care but she has wonderful bedside manner and held my mothers hand while she spoke to her. I don't think I have met any dentist that cares as much about her patients as she does. She is truly a blessing! The office staff are also super friendly and always meet you with a smile. I'd also like to mention the dental hygienists there are some of the friendliest people you can meet and also so knowledgeable. Believe or not I was flossing the wrong way until one of the hygienists showed me the right way. I would 10/10 recommend this office. They are the best! read more

I had a great experience at this dental office. I had a bad taste in my mouth from the last office I went to. Everyone here was very kind. They took the time to explain everything to me. It was easy to schedule and they are very accommodating. See you soon! read more

Doctors and staff have created a caring and professional environment. I am very happy with the dental treatment I received.

They have been sending me bills and I've been laying the last one over 300 dollars. Tired to get an explanation detail but they would not send me one. I went in and paid it. They said that's was all I owed. All paid in full. Now I'm getting texted saying I owe the 31 dollars. For What? I'm paid in full. They don't respond just keep demanding more money. This is the worst dental office in Encinitas it's and I've been to many. read more

Expensive but good level of care. Not sure its a recco becuase the costs staff friendly and so on

Dr. Coffey and his team are amazing! They do a great cleaning and are honest and not salesy. I went for a second opinion after a horrible experience and they were highly recommended by friends and he didn't recommend unnecessary dental work. I highly recommend too! read more

I give Dr Coffey office a zero rating, I had to chose one star in order to be posted. I had my X-rays sent to a different dentist after a really bad experience with Dr. Coffey staff over another issue. Now The X-rays were marked wrong. Tooth number 19 is always on the left. It's human error to make mistakes at times as long as there are corrected. No one checked and the X-rays were sent out with an error on the films. This is a tooth that needs a root canal. It's like operating on the wrong leg. Very disappointed in Dr. Coffeys and his staff. Dr. Coffey didn't notice as well. Sloppy and careless. read more

They are amazing. Felt very safe. Cleaning was fabulous and the DDS was very nice and informative. Didn't push to have a bunch of work done. Will never go Anywhere else again. read more

Great office and staff! Quality cleanings w/out all the pushy sales pitches. Get in, get a great cleaning and get on w/ your day! Dr. Coffey and his staff are AWESOME!! read more

Dr Coffey has a fantastic personality, sense of humor, and bedside manor. He is professional, caring, and honest. He doesn't give sales pitches or recommend unnecessary procedures. The hygienists and front desk staff who work there are friendly and efficient. I've been going here for years and have always have a quality experience. I don't want him to ever retire! My husband and in-laws all see him and love him and his staff. read more

I have been going to Dr. Coffey for many years. During this stressful time, I am grateful that I can get the care I need at his office without any added stress! I love Dr. Coffey, adore Barbara, admire Olivia (she is doing a wonderful job) and especially appreciate the young lady at the check-in/check-out desk! I feel terrible that I don't remember her name. She is always kind and patient, even when she has several things going at once! read more

Staff is efficient, on time and VERY gentle... They use the latest in dental technology... couldn't be more happy with a dentist..

Dr. Coffey is a great dentist. He is the only dentist that has been able to give me a shot in the mouth with no pain! He is processional and caring. Highly recommend. read more

I have been going here for two years and have had a wonderful experience to date. Just had my last appointment two weeks ago. The office is located on Encinitas Blvd and El Camino Real by the Jack in the Box. The staff is friendly and the office looks clean and organized. The plus - Dr. Coffey does not recommend unnecessary treatments. This and proper billing without surprises are the most important attributes of a good dentist. Most, unfortunately, will provide a 'treatment plan' of a litany of unnecessary dental treatments. I have been hoodwinked by this practice before and will never again. Look at other dental reviews and you will see it is common. Always have a second opinion. In fact that was the reason I started going here and the reason I stayed. Our insurance had changed and we had to find a new dentist. This was a process I hate because a good dentist is so hard to find. The first told me I had two 'small cavities' that he could take care of quickly. I said not now and decided to get that second opinion. The second dentist saw no cavities but said my teeth were awful and I needed 2000 of periodontal work instead. I passed. They were completely different opinions. I then tried Dr. Coffee. They took x-rays and cleaned my teeth. No cavities (nor have they found one in the two years since). And I did not need all this periodontal work either. Guess those others were just trying to pay off their new Mercedes ;-) I am so glad I did not waste money or worse, having my teeth drilled into unnecessarily. I know that has happened in the past. It is how most dentists operate. It just took me about 50 years to figure that out. I hope that others will always get that second opinion because of my review. My only concern is that Dr. Coffey is nearing retirement age and when he does, I will have to find another one who has Dr. Coffey's ethical attributes. read more

I found Dr. Coffey several years ago when my previous dentist messed up a crown application. Dr. Coffey set things right quickly and painlessly. He has a fun personality (if you have an appointment on Halloween you may find a vampire checking your bicuspids) and an office full of friendly staff. He makes eye contact and really talks to you, not at you. He also practices common sense dentistry. He'll tell you all the advantages and disadvantages of each avenue of treatment and let you decide, unlike my previous dentist, who insisted I needed to replace all of my childhood fillings (I had lots of cavities as a kid) because "they're about to fall out". Dr. Coffey recommended we wait and see how my old fillings lasted, rather than replace them all as a preventative measure. It's been over 10 years since then, and most of those old fillings are still hanging in there. Now my whole family goes to Dr. Coffey -- even my husband, whose childhood dentistry experiences were even worse than mine. For a guy who used to hate going to the dentist, he is now one of Dr. Coffey's most loyal patients. read more

I went to Dr. Coffey today for an emergency root canal. The receptionist was so polite and kind to me when I called for an appointment, and squeezed me in even though they were booked since I was in pain. Everyone I met there, from the receptionists to the dental hygienist to Dr. Coffey were extremely friendly and accommodating, and had great bedside manner. I was very anxious about getting a root canal, but they answered every question, were respectful, and the hygienist assured me that it would be painless because he's such a good doctor and very conscientious. And it was! I don't know what he did, but the novacaine was "ouchless", and I didn't really feel much at all throughout the whole procedure! The office was comfortable, and they did so much to make me feel relaxed. I loved their TV on the ceiling, so I was able to watch Project Runway while they were doing the work- I even had a blanket and a pillow to hold on to! I'm very happy to give this dentist five stars- the best dentist I've been to in over twenty years. read more

Dr Coffey is in my view simply the best. His concern for his patients comfort borders on obsessive! He also takes pride in the quality of his work. I have had extensive work and I told him the crowns he has made for me are the best looking teeth in my mouth... He has been my dentist since 1997, and I only wish I would have gone sooner, after suffering some pretty poor dentistry. Besides the great work of Dr Coffey his TEAM is also great, and take care of your every need... and always with a smile. Thanks to all Dr Bruce A Parker read more

The staff is great and accommodating.Dr. Coffey is efficient and caring to manage dental issues. The hygienist was very gentle and personable. Thank you. read more

The best dentist and staff that I have ever experienced!

Best Dentistry I have ever herb to!!! So kind, absolutely caring and Dr Coffey can gives the best oral numbing shot, which can be terrifying! The staff are so friendly and actually makes going to the dentist very enjoyable. I am in and out of there so fast! Best dentistry in town. read more

The front office is friendly and helpful. My teeth feel as clean as they can get thanks to Petra. Dr Coffey is always friendly and professional. The office is well kept and has a professional staff. Thank you! read more

This dental office, the staff and Dr. Coffey are wonderful, caring people. They always make sure that I'm as comfortable as possible whether it's a cleaning or procedure. I recently had 4 special gumline "fillings" placed on teeth where I was showing signs of recession. The numbing shots were entirely painless and so was the procedure. I highly recommend this office to anyone who has dentist office anxiety like me! read more

All I had done was have an old crown removed which had popped off twice before while flosing. I was in so much pain when I got home and the anasthetic wore off that advil couldn't help. I ended up taking an old hydrocone pill from 2 years ago just to sleep.The base of my tongue hurts as done the inside of my lip which is torn up; I can barely eat and my throat, near the base of my tongue hurts like crazy. If I had known there was going to be this much pain and it was going to take what sounded like a roto-hammer to get it off I just would have left it alone! read more

My husband, son and I all had a great experience with Dr. Coffey and his team.

Dr. Coffey and his staff are wonderful! Our family has been going here since 2007, my sister's family and my mom have also joined.

I absolutely love this office and will be so very sad if Dr. Coffey ever retires! And I've been to several dentists over the years, no one compares. I normally see Petra, who has such a gentle touch and is just a really neat person. There is never pressure to "upsell" or replace crowns, fillings that don't need to be replaced. I just feel very comfortable in this office, with all who assist me. Dr. Coffey runs a great practice and you can see it in all the staff that works here. read more

Dr. Coffey's office is wonderful. I am a new patient referred in by a friend after having been away from the area for 10 years and I could not be happier. Each of front & back office staff that I've interacted with thus far in my 2 appointments (cleaning & surface fillings ) are warm, personable, professional & efficient. The office is exceptionally clean, open and inviting. Most importantly, Dr. Coffey is extremely professional, easy to talk with, always eager to make you comfortable and does a wonderful job. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Dr. Coffey and staff. read more

Dr. Coffey and his staff are AMAZING!!! I am on vacation and broke a temp, I contacted Dr Coffey's office and was given an appointment to be seen as soon as I could get to the office. The front desk staff were warm and friendly and checked me in immediately. I waited maybe 5 minutes before being taken for the appointment. Dr Coffey's assistant was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the doctor was awesome! The entire appointment only took 20 minutes. I cannot day enough good thing about this practice and the staff. They are so good that if I ever move here, this will be my dental office. read more

After trying 5 other dentists in the area, we were thrilled to find Dr. Coffey. He is gentle, fast and professional. He will neither ignore potential problems nor suggest unnecessary work. His staff is great, and we've never been left waiting past our appointment times. read more

Great job Dr. Coffey, Barbara, and everyone at the office. I know my teeth will be alright now. :)
