I was a bit nervous about getting veneers, but I decided to trust Dr. Rahbar's recommendation to improve my overall smile rather than just treat the one tooth...and I couldn't be happier with the results. I had seen the before and after photos and knew it was going to look great, but the final result exceeded all of my expectations. I'm amazed at how natural and beautiful my veneers look. I definitely smile with much more confidence now, and I'm incredibly happy with the final result. A special shoutout to the entire Dentique team. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the process. They made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Brandi checked in after each appointment to make sure I was doing well and not experiencing any pain or issues. I truly couldn't be happier with both the results and the overall experience. If you're searching for the right dental studio, I hope this review helps, you'll be in great hands at Dentique!

    I've been a patient here for about five years, and I can honestly say I'm one of the most…read moreparticular (some might say picky) patients a dentist or orthodontist could have. Over that time, Dr. Brian Mananquil and the entire Bella Vita Dental team have consistently gone above and beyond to make sure every concern I've had was addressed with patience, transparency, and genuine care. My treatment has been pretty extensive, to say the least. Dr. Brian has handled everything from implants and sinus lifts to numerous rounds of Invisalign and refinements, along with all of my general fillings, crowns, and other dental work. You name it--I've probably had to get it done; my teeth needed the whole kitchen sink. Throughout the entire process, he has always taken the time to clearly explain my options, answer every question I had, and make adjustments whenever I wanted to explore different approaches. I never once felt rushed or dismissed, which is incredibly important when you're making decisions about major dental work. What stands out most is how accommodating and patient he has been. Even when I've been very detail-oriented about my results, he's always been willing to work with me to get things exactly right. That level of commitment and professionalism is rare. The office is also consistently well-run, the staff is friendly and organized, and appointments are handled smoothly. If you're looking for a dentist or orthodontist who is skilled, thoughtful, and truly invested in achieving the best outcome for their patients, I can't recommend Dr. Brian enough. After five years of complex treatment, I'm extremely grateful I chose this practice.

    I've been a patient at Bella Vita since 2019. For years, I raved about their services…read more Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. At my last cleaning, I was repeatedly pushed toward a deep cleaning I didn't want or need. It took three firm "no" responses before the receptionist finally dropped it. I went into my most recent appointment already hesitant, and to no surprise, the same thing happened again. This time, I confronted them about it and ultimately walked out without receiving the cleaning I scheduled. Their entire process seems to have been reversed. What used to be: X-rays cleaning recommendations has become: X-rays gum measurements a sales pitch for $3,000+ worth of treatment pressure to commit before receiving the service you came in for. After I told the receptionist I simply wanted the cleaning I had scheduled, the hygienist came in and immediately asked, "What's your hesitation?" That felt less like patient care and more like a sales tactic. When I voluntarily schedule and pay for a dental appointment, I expect to receive the service I came for - not a high-pressure sales pitch. I will not be returning, and I will not be recommending Bella Vita. What was once a practice with great service and kind people now feels more like a dental dealership focused on upselling before patient care. It's a shame. You had something good, and you squandered it.

He's not like your typical dentist who guilts you for your whole appointment, but instead he actually genuinely cares about you, your life, and will give you such useful tips when brushing & flossing your teeth! I love this place and would recommend it to anyone who's scared of the dentist like I was! Now I actually do enjoy going & always have a good experience. I've had so many services done by them - cleanings, filings, crowns, implants, and the service & experience has been so incredible! They also have pretty top notch technology - which is super cool because they will explain it to you if you ask. But because they take so many pictures and scans, they really can explain to you the status of your teeth and help you get back on track. I know some people are worried about getting scammed, but this place will show you x-rays and pictures taken in real time so you can understand everything as well. 10/10 experience. I've been coming here for years and after your first appointment the staff gets to you know pretty well. This year I also got a Christmas gift (chocolates). All the people are so easy to talk to and it really creates a solid community in such a big city!

The entire staff is so helpful and friendly. Dr. Abordo is extremely soft spoken, kind and knowledgeable. We have been burned a couple of times at previous dentists where all they want is your money. Making up dental work that doesn't need to be fixed. Here we feel seen and heard. Highly recommend

Let me tell you how much I love Dr. Collin's and team!! They took all of my concerns a seriously, I mean really listened to me. I like that they have laughing gas as a backup option to help with my anxiety during these visits, but I found myself perfectly fine going without. This place is generational family-owned and you can just really feel the warmth and care that comes from that. After a cleaning I came back in for bonding to fix the chip I've had in my front tooth for literal DECADES and found that process to be nice and painless as well (literally and figuratively). Last little note is I've been impressed with their willingness to work with my insurance to make sure I'm keeping as much money in my pocket as possible.

Last year I decided to do the major work needed to bring my smile back. This decision was done in large part to the confidence I had in Dr. Collins. The process took about nine months and involved removing all existing teeth and crowns and putting in 28 new crowns. The process was easier and quicker than I expected (I did opt for sedation dentistry which certainly helped relieve almost all of the of the discomfort of the procedures). Today I can smile again and have beautiful teeth. Also, everybody in the office is very friendly and supportive of all patients. Special shout out to Ashley, Dee, Winford and Diedre, all are great to work with. I very much recommend Dr Collins for any dental work you need.
