Having a degree isn't the tell all. It's the skills, the heart, the desire to be the best and sincerely so. This is my observation of Granite Hills Dental. Dr Tyler, his staff, and his pre team mentor Dr Dennis Scharer are great human beings. If you want the best in care, this is it! Cheers. read more

I was a patient of Dr. Kennedy and after he retired, Dr. Sharer for probably 15 years until Dr. S retired and sold the practice to Dr Tyler. Along with other routine dental work, Dr. Tyler replaced a crown 2 1/2 years ago. Some of the crowns in my mouth have been trouble free since installed by a different dentist in 1973. Dr Tyler's work lasted 1 1/2 years, fell off, was recemented by Dr Tyler's office, lasted six months, fell off again. I called the office Thursday, had a return call Tuesday. By then I had paid another dentist to recement it. The other dentist informed me that it will probably keep falling off " if you want it done correctly, I can do it". He said the margins were not done properly. Dr Tyler called a few days after I told the office that I was unhappy with his work, he left a message to call him, I did, of course he was busy, office staff said he'd call me back, I haven't heard from him. I'll be notifying my insurance about the quality of his work. Like my mechanic mentor said, "people never have time to do it right, but they always find time to do it over." read more

I have been going to Granite Hills dental for years. The original dentist DR. Sharer had been my dentist for many years and then (As people do) decides its time to retire. Then I meet the new dentist DR Tyler. Not sure how I would feel about having a new dentist but but I gave him the opportunity. And. I Am glad I did! He is not only a an awesome dentist but a really good person! YOU just get that feeling when he speak to you and he also really cares about his patients too! I had an issue with one of my teeth over the weekend and felt I needed help and called his office. I Left a message with the answering service and 30 minutes later he called. NOW keep in mind this is his off time and he STILL Called me to make sure I was ok and what he could do to help. That is above and beyond customer service! I am really glad DR. Tyler is my dentist and if you feel you need a dentist that will take care of you then he is your guy! Thank you sir! Pat read more

I've always been hesitant about getting dental work done because I feel like dentist are always trying to "upsell" the work. I don't worry about that with this dentist. I was wowed with first impressions here, and second, and third.... they've delivered high quality service every time. The office is clean and up to date. There are complimentary beverages available, a little relaxing fountain. They have blankets available if you're cold during your exam. The staff is amazing. Very friendly, and they all really know their stuff. I've learned so much about my teeth and the care of it in my last 3 visits that will make a huge difference in my dental care. The only down side is that they are out of my insurance network, but they're so good I'm ok with paying the out of network costs. It'll save my teeth in the long run! read more

I had a root canal and it didn't take so they gave me the root canal for free what a great deal. Five-star yelp for these guys! read more

Granite Hills Dental Team - General Dentistry Near Me - El Cajon, California

Best dental experience ever! My wife has been going here for years and she referred after a bad experience at town center group in Santee . The staff is amazing , very attentive, courteous, friendly and you can have confidence that they will treat you right and take care of your dental needs. The facilities is very clean and uses the latest technology and the pricing is very reasonable . The best part is that they are great with kids. Two weeks ago my 4 year old son needed a filling on one of his teeth, Dr Tyler did an amazing job putting my son at ease , and educated him on the process at a kids level of understanding. He was very gentle, minimizing pain and created a fun experience for my son who actually loves the dentist now due to his wonderful experience. I highly recommend Granite Hills Dental to any family in need of a great dental hygienist! read more

This is a late post. They did not tell me that they were OUT of network with my insurance. When going in and receiving my "needed treatment" the prices were outrageous! I asked how this is possible when I have 2000 coverage she said "its only 1500 here" Now someone is calling me demanding a check that I have yet to receive? The office was very clean. Susan seemed very nice and understanding. I really liked her. I REALLY do care about my mouth, the dentist seemed like he did not. read more

Horrible customer service, and it's been getting worse and worse! They are out of network for every dental insurance I have tried over the years, and I've tried every one my employer offers. Their prices are extremely high, much higher than other top rated dentists in the area. Both dentists have their own practices, separate from the Granite Hills dental group and they seem to have very limited office time at this practice. If you need dental work you can expect that you'll be waiting months and months to complete the work and expect to pay exorbitant prices. The level of care has been decreasing over the years, the technicians are condescending, billing is vague, and Dr. Tyler was very rude during my last visit. And it was my last visit... read more

I've been going to Granite Hills Dental Team for a few years now and I love it. They are friendly, professional, and always do a great job caring for (and teaching ME how to care for) my teeth. I would recommend them to anyone. read more

Had my first appointment at Granite Hills after seeing a military dentist for the past ten years on active duty. The place far exceeded my expectations and I couldn't be more satisfied. The staff was friendly and professional. My hygienist and Dr. Tyler taught me more about my teeth in 20 minutes than I'd learned in the past 20 years. I will certainly be staying with Granite Hills in the future. read more

This is office is always outstanding! Everyone is friendly, honest, professional, time-conscious, thorough, and kind. I firmly believe having a great dentist and hygienist team is ESSENTIAL- you only get one chance to do it right with your teeth! I can honestly say, I go to this office and bring my children here for a reason: they are the BEST! read more

I love the staff here!! I love coming to the dentist. I have been coming here for years and I think they are part of the reason I feel comfortable in the chair most people find so scary! Janelle is my hygienist, though I love them all she is who I usually see. There is a new dentist now that I have yet to meet but I hear he's pretty handsome...that can't hurt your comfort level! Anyway always great service, great at reminders and friendly people! read more

I have been with this office for over 23 years. I have 4 crowns that were done by this office in 1999. They are my 4 front upper teeth. I called about getting them replaced since the porcelain worn off and you can see the metal. The response I got was very disappointing. I have to pay full price to replace them. I have no insurance and at $1360 per tooth I can not afford it. Very disappointed. No discount for the fact they did the work. read more

Love Granite Hills dental team! Quality care and professional staff. The place to go if you need dental care.

I really appreciate a good dental office. Having just switched to Granite Hills Dental, I think they are professional experts who really care about their patients. Highly recommended! read more

Hands down the best Dental office in San Diego! Staff is so friendly and nice and Dr. Tyler is awesome. They made me forget about all my phobias in going to the dentist and now I look forward to go! Would recommend them to everyone! read more

After Dr. Sharer retired the new dentistry team has gone down hill. The new dentists are not as kind and personable and you do not experience the same amount of care as you once did with the previous dentist. Also a family member of mine has also been misdiagnosed by one of the new money hungry dentists. I have been going to this dentist almost my whole life, its sad to say I will never be returning. read more

Love everything about this place! Awesome staff... EVERYONE is sweet as pie. They do awesome dental work. It is clean, easy to find, nice amenities like coffee, water and granola bars. Oh, and every visit you leave with a fresh flower! read more

A great dental office filled with friendly and knowledgeable staff.

This place is top notch. I drive from la Jolla to see them. It's important to see an office where not only the doctors are wonderful but also the staff. Experience is cumulative and really sets the bar for what dental care should be. This is an area of your body you need to pamper yourself and this is the place to do it. Keep up the great work! read more

One of the people I work with introduced me to GHDT about 5 years ago. Techno advanced, polite and courteous. I'll never go anywhere else to have my teeth worked on. Yesterday I had my teeth cleaned. Easy and quick. I made Sher tell me the story of her life while i had my mouth open. Imagine having a good time during a teeth cleaning. read more

This office is extremely friendly and knowledgeable.....you can tell they've been doing this for a long time. The dentistry is high quality and you can tell they really care about their patients! I can't think of a better office in the east county area! read more

I would like to start out by saying that I have a history of being terrified of going to the dentist. In fact so much so that I would do anything to avoid having to go to see the dentist in the past ! Well this is not the case anymore. From the first visit to this office I was treated like family with genuine care and concern. Dr Tyler and Dr Gonzalez have done amazing crown work and implants on me! I love my dental hygienist Jean she is incredible , there is no other like her! I can not say enough about The support team that helps the dentists they are all equally amazing! This includes the girls at the front desk! Yes this office is right up there there in my opinion. Sometime there are places you go and you know that all they care about is making a buck and let's be honest here we all need to make a living but we can be caring and treat each other with respect and dignity as we are making a living! This office has never overcharged me in fact is competitive with other decent dentists and is downright loving to their patients. I just want to thank them for making me overcome my fear of going to the dentist, in fact I look forward to the experience today, something I never thought possible. If you are reading this and are afraid don't be afraid to come to this office you will be in the best of care, you are in great hands, thanks Granite Hills Dental Team for making me smile pretty!

To rate a dental office 5 stars is counter intuitive to me since I really don't like getting my teeth worked on. But this place is great! I'm always happy afterwards. The staff is top notch. Everything from making an appointment, to the excellent hygienists (nearly pain free, fast, efficient, friendly, and beautiful!), to the x-ray technician (although I don't like bitewings!), to the financial/insurance rep (knowledgable, helpful, and when finished there she even makes my next appointment for me so I don't need that extra step), to the Doctors (sensitive, caring, communicative), to the whole front desk staff; they are ALL excellent at their jobs and friendly. This office is one reason I like living in this area. Thanks! read more

It is my pleasure to let anyone looking for a dentist, this is the team to take care of your every want and need. Team is aways pleasant, thoughtful,kind and always follows through on all tasks, questions, appointments, reminders they even say thank you and give you a choice of a colored Carnation to take home. The dentists and assistances always make sure you understand the work they are going to perform and guide you through each step before they perform it. It is now possible to leave with a permanent cap made in a computer driven mill that cuts and shapes the cap in the office and no temporary cap and no more appointments to deal with. Yahoo! They are the best. read more

I have been a patient at the Granite Hills Dental Office ever since is was led by Dr. Scharer. Through any and all changes they have gone through with Dr. Scharer's retirement and the introduction of Dr. Tyler and others, they have been ever so consistent in their amazing treatment. I LOVE going to the dentist, I look forward to my appointments and I rave to my family and friends about this dental office! I highly highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great family dentist! Everyone i refer (at least 6 people who now religiously go to the dentist themselves), totally agrees about the great work they do... My smile is healthier than ever, and I have the great staff at Granite Hills Dental Team to thank for that!! read more

I've been a patient for several years now. If you're looking for quality care by a trusted dentist, look no further. I just had a crown put in today and was amazed at the new technology and state of the art equipment in this office. Dr. Tyler "designed" my crown using a high tech computer and machine and within 15 minutes my crown was done! That's right, you don't have to wear a temporary crown and waste precious time returning a second time for a permanent crown. Yay! Dr. Tyler did an outstanding job today. He is very professional, kind, personable and most importantly, has the perfect bedside manner which is hard to come by these days. Dr. Tyler is a dentist who cares. Sadly, I read the one and only poor review by another Yelper. Wow, very harsh and so untrue! Never has this office recommended or performed unnecessary treatment nor do they try and "upsell" treatment. I trust Dr. Tyler and his staff to the fullest extent. They are professional, knowledgeable and very capable. You get what you pay for. We all know dental work is costly, but my teeth are worth it and yours are too. If you are looking for inexpensive dental work, go to a dental mill and good luck with that. Trust me, you'll regret it. Book your appointment! You can thank me later! read more
