Just sucks Anyway if you want to pay big bucks and want a good dentist you can go here they do offer quality care staff is kind but seems to be all about the buck

I visited a periodontist surgeon in Elk Grove recently for laser deep cleaning. The doctor said I…read morewas a candidate for the procedure; however when reviewing my paperwork with the office manager it was much more extensive including the use of foreign tissue. I had questions about what appeared to be major gum surgery instead of Laser and the office manager replied: "Would you rather lose your teeth it's your decision". That's when I decided to get a second opinion. It was the best decision I ever made. Dr Thomas and her staff were amazing. Dr Thomas answered all my questions and concerns. I had my Laser deep cleaning procedure a week ago and I feel great. I would advise anyone who is considering this procedure to make an appointment with Sacramento Periodontal. Sincerely, Steph S. RN

I am very disappointed in the office of Dr. Arora. I have two Delta Dental insurance policies that…read moreI pay over $240 each month for and I have 100% coverage with a DD provider. I was referred to Dr. Arora's office by my dentist office but was not informed that his associate, Dr. Warda, was NOT a Delta Dental approved doctor. I absolutely would NOT have agreed to see him if I had been informed that I was not going to be covered by my insurance. I am out $200 for non-covered service in addition to my monthly insurance payments. When I talked to Heather today and she told me that there was nothing they can do, I told her I was really disappointed. Heather then threatened me that they would send me to collection if payment was not rendered. I never told her that I wouldn't pay, just that I was disappointed with their office's unethical practice. Be warned!

10 years ago I had fractured my lower jaw and was starting to get an infection. My dentist and I…read morehad no idea it was fractured at the time and were confused on what was happening in my gums. I was referred to Dr. Arora. When they opened my gums they had to perform an emergency surgery to get all of the infected bone out and replace it with new bone. It effected all four of my front lower teeth. The decay was so bad and so quick he could see the roots of my teeth. The odds of me keeping those teeth were incredibly low. However 10 years later all of my lower teeth are still alive and strong! My gums are and the bone that he had put in are all great as well. Couldn't recommend Dr. Arora more!

I am writing this on my teenage son's behalf after an exceptional experience at Sacramento Valley…read moreDental Specialists. We specifically researched and decided on Dr. Dana Jensen, and he lived up to his reputation. Dr. Jensen is professional, amazing, and soft-spoken; he explained everything clearly and answered every question we had regarding the procedure. The efficiency was incredible--he removed two fully erupted top wisdom teeth and two horizontal impacted ones in less than 40 minutes under general anesthesia. The recovery was just as smooth; my son was pain-free by the second day using the provided ice pack and post-op instructions. The prescription was sent directly to the pharmacy, making the whole process seamless. His recovery was so fast that he was able to attend his first year of college just three days after surgery! I also loved the office layout, which includes a discreet side door to wheel patients out to the car. Tarah, the receptionist, was a pleasure to deal with and clearly explained our insurance coverage. I've also had the pleasure to deal with Nora (over the phone) and she was a sweetheart. While they require an appointment security fee over the phone, it is applied directly to the procedure. From the text reminders to the expert care, we are so glad we chose Dr. Jensen!

While on vacation I started experiencing extreme sensitivity and a throbbing sensation on my bottom…read moreright wisdom tooth (32). Upon returning from my trip, I scheduled an emergency appointment with Luc Dental Care. An x-ray confirmed a large cavity in my wisdom tooth. I was immediately referred to Sacramento Valley Dental Specialists for a tooth extraction. I spoke with a friendly representative at Sacramento Valley Dental Specialists who was able to schedule a next day consultation and oral surgery. The following day I arrived to a group of friendly employees at the front desk that greeted me. Since I filled out the intake form prior to the appointment, I was only seated for two minutes before being ushered to the back. An employee took my blood pressure, administered an x-ray, and informed me that the surgeon would be with me shortly. Shortly after Dr. Fries entered the room and introduced himself. He gave me an overview of the procedure that would be conducted, asked if I had any questions, and then started a short video that informed me about post-extraction care. After the video concluded, I was ushered to another room where Dr. Fries and an employee began administering the local anesthesia. Roughly 10 minutes later, after confirming that the anesthesia had kicked in, Dr Fries began the procedure. Throughout the procedure Dr. Fries and the employee did a great job of communicating what was happening (the wisdom tooth was very stubborn in coming out) and verifying that I was not in pain (although there was slight discomfort). Three days later, strictly following the post-extraction rules, I have no pain (thankfully)...thank you Dr. Fries and the rest of the Sacramento Valley Dental Specialists team!

I am a local orthodontist and I have worked with Dr. State for over a decade. I have referred many…read morepatients to him and the results are always excellent. His communication is second to none. He stands out as perhaps the most knowledgeable and skilled periodontist I have ever worked with. He recently removed an infected wisdom tooth. There were multiple complicating factors. He took his time and did the most excellent job possible. Thank you, Dr. State!

Dr. State was not the issue with this business. The problem lies with their billing department. At…read morethe time of service, you are required to pay what your insurance doesn't cover. Surprise! The person who takes care of making sure your amounts are correct doesn't seem capable of doing this well. I received a huge bill months later letting me know that I owed this amount because my insurance maxed out. Mind you, this was all supposed to be taken care of before having my procedure done. She stated that I had to have gone to my primary dentist in the meantime, which I did not do. Clearly, she didn't do her job and I am supposed to take care of this now. I now have to go back and do her job to get this bill paid. I would not suggest going to this doctor due to this problematic issue.

They called the office to see if this was something they could repair in house and they told them they couldn't see him for a few weeks and that He needed an appointment in order to determine whether they could repair it or would need to send it out. Weeks??? They asked if they could bring it by and could he take a peek real quick to see if it was fixable so they could pursue other options. No. They refused to even try and help. They just didn't care. My sister was really upset but thanked them. They found another dentist who actually took the dentures to the lab himself and had them fixed within a few days. They now go to this office. My sister got a call from the old office trying to schedule a cleaning and she said they had gone elsewhere. She asked why. My sister asked if she wanted the truth. Yes she did. So she told the story and the person who called her got defensive and nasty. They STILL didn't care. So glad they went elsewhere.
