    Ask the Community - Gerald E Chang, DDS

    Do you do root canal? Do you extract teeth and do implants there all at same dental office? If you…

    Hi Cindy. Yes we do root canals, extractions , and implants here at our office. However, depending on the difficulty of the case there are times we will refer the treatment out to a specialist.… 

    If, after consultation , your suggestion is for dentures, do you do full dentures?

    We do fabricate full dentures here at our office. If the case is complex due to lack of bone we may refer out to specialists if necessary.

    One more x-ray question. Are your x-rays the newer, more comfortable digital or the old style that are difficult for some (like me) to tolerate?

    Sorry I don’t know but our X-ray sensors are standard size and shape. We try our best to make our patients comfortable while we take them but it can be uncomfortable for some people.

    Do you do the panoramic x-ray or only bitewings?

    We do not take panoramic X-rays here at our office. We only take full mouth series and bite wings X-rays.

    Do you accept Liberty Dental, a PPO?

    We are not an in-network provider for liberty ppo however we do bill them as an out-of-network provider.

    Do you perform root canals?

    Depending on the case we do some at our office. However, most root canals are referred to a endodontist.

    Hello, is Dr. Chang accepting new patients and he is able to do a root canal (redo/Re-treatment) if needed in addition to the crown replacement? I see he is on the delta dental provider list and the website describes root canals.

    Hello. We do accept new patients with emergencies. However, we do not redo root canals. We would need to refer you to a endodontist for that procedure.

    I call to make teeth cleaning appointment with your office, I have ppo Delta dental insurance, but you don’t take new patient, when should I call back for appointment?

    Hi Betsy. With patients feeling safer now to come to the dentist since being vaccinated we are finding ourselves to be fully booked. You can try calling back next month to see if we have any openings for new patients. Thank you for your inquiry.

    Do you Accept Delta Dental thru Kaiser Permanente?

    If it is a PPO plan yes we do. If it is a HMO plan no we do not.

    Do you accept the New Dental Choice plans?

    We do not accept the new dental choice plan.

    I recently learned that your office is charging $10 per visit for "Unspecified preventive procedure, by report-Code D1999." This is to cover PPE for the office during the pandemic. Why was this not communicated to patients before billing them for it?

    This is charged out to the insurance company, not to the patient directly. Please contact our office for further explanation. But in the meanwhile we will look into ways to efficiently communicate this to our patients.

    Hi! Do you accept any dental discount plans such as iDental, Aetna Dental or Ameriplan? Thanks so much!

    Yes we do accept certain plans at this time.

    Do you accept United Healthcare?

    No we are not an in-network provider. However, we accept UH as a out-of-network provider for PPO plans.

    Does your office take Delta Dental PPO?

    Yes we do accept Delta PPO

    Do they take Guardian?

    Yes we accept Guardian as long as it is a PPO plan.

    Is Care Credit accepted as a form of payment?

    Hi Rylan, Yes we do accept care credit as a form of payment. However, there are requirements and limitations. Please contact our office if you need specific information.… 

    What does the insurance actually cover?

    Hi Ruth. Sorry I missed your question. Every insurance policy is different so its hard to say what they will cover and what they will not cover. If there is something specific you are looking to see coverage for you can call your insurance company… 

    Dr. Chang do all of the dentists you have set up to cover for those 3 days you are not available take the same insurance that you do?

    Each dental office has their own list of insurances that they are providers for. Some of them may or may not be in-network providers but all of them can bill your insurance…

Most doctors' offices are staff tense,.worrying about angering their bosses. There is none of that here. On top of that, there is excellent dental care.

    Extremely poor customer service from the front desk. When I declined an X-ray because I already…read morehave several medically necessary X-rays scheduled this year, I was told it was a "legal requirement" and that my August cleaning would be canceled. After I challenged that claim, it suddenly became merely "office protocol." There was no empathy, no effort to understand my medical concerns, and no basic courtesy. I suggested to have it done closer to my cleaning visit in late August. I was then told there were no X-ray appointments available before August 20......then, after I questioned that, an appointment magically became available the morning of my cleaning. The qualified clinical staff have been so far ok. Unfortunately, this administrative staff I interacted with came across as arrogant, dismissive, hostile, and deeply unconcerned with the patient experience. She did not even acknowledge me as I left. I have zero tolerance for made up lies and rude people. Absolutely unacceptable.

    Dr. Elraheb and the rest of the team at Precision Dentistry are terrific!…read moreI chipped a tooth while moving to the area and needed to get that urgently fixed while in the middle of an extremely busy week. I called the office in the late afternoon and they made time to fit me in at 9am the next morning. The front desk team and dental assistants were both friendly and helpful, and Dr. Elraheb did a thorough job explaining how the repair was going to work, and the various steps he was taking, including offering me different options for anesthetic if I was uncomfortable at any point. They had me in and out the door in about 90 minutes, and that's including all the paperwork required at a new dentist! Highly recommend this team if you're looking for a dentist!

    Honestly, I am super late writing this review. I relocated to the Coachella Valley and have been…read moreamazed at the " upselling " that is rampant in this profession.! Wow! This dentist is one of the purest dentist that evaluated issues. He was SO honest and could have profited from my vulnerability and I would have left devastated and still in pain with another scheduled appt. He is NOT like many that I have frequented over the past couple of years. He helped to stabilize me and advised to continue with my UCLA dentist. It was so refreshing to have a dentist that did not see me as $$$$. I so hope that he continues his path! I had a really great experience. Be careful in your selection of a dentist!!! It's truly transformed into a major profit seeking vocation
