    Worse dentist I've ever been to and I'm very upset that we ever took our child there. They have…read moreZERO bedside manner! They are pro's at upselling and pushing products/procedures as if it's the norm.... Do your research! The staff are not up to speed on the procedures, and will tell you one thing while the dentist does something completely different behind closed doors with no parent consultation or approval. Very unprofessional, I will never take my child here again and will never recommend this practice to anyone that cares about their child. Seriously reconsider exposing your child to this practice!

    After over 5 years of trusting this office to have my teeth straightened I regret ever walking in…read moreto this place. I went in to Dr. Surrillos to have my teeth and my daughters teeth straightened. After 2 years my teeth looked fantastic, yet I was told to keep coming to get the front aligned, turn, a tooth, a make room for my implant. I trusted them and did so. Then in the 2 nd year and after I had already paid them off before the 3 year, my bottom teeth began to noticeably shift higher and higher making them look completely side ways. Each time anything has happened, I had to tell them about it, otherwise they wouldn't do anything. As was the case with this. Years went by and they never addressed the issue. Eventually I asked them how much longer is this going to be it had already been 5 1/2 years and my bottom teeth were now completely misaligned. They all of a sudden changed everything around super fast and then ruined my top teeth by pulling them out and over the flared bottom teeth, flaring them and ruining how straight they had been. The canines also got pulled out of alignment and the midline also ended up being completely off center, there are spaces between my teeth that show black behind and get food stuck because the teeth are not aligned and lastly I don't have room for my implant and now I have to get braces again. He refunded my payment, however it is not enough to fix them now and does not begin to cover the 5 1/2 years I had to wear braces and the emotional damage I have experienced since they were removed. I was 34 when I got them and 39 when they were removed and you'd never think I had braces. I truly wish I would have never gone here. I would not recommend or go here ever again. Although they are all very nice, It is churn and burn and your kids wouldn't be able to speak out about it. My daughter's front teeth are not as aligned and her front tooth is already shifting back, with restrainer wear. Please review the photo attached. The bottom photos are what I now need to go to an orthodontist to fix. They are FLARED, misaligned and my bite is so off it hurts, I have gaps on the tops next to the gums and I can barley close my mouth over my teeth with out effort. DONT GO HERE.

The entire team works incredibly well together and shows so much respect for one another. Everyone is highly trained, professional, and truly on point in everything they do. Dr. Le is amazing and does exceptional work. I recently had a crown done, and I was so impressed by how particular and meticulous he was throughout the entire process. Dr. Denise also did several fillings for me using the Solea laser AND I didn't need to get numb! What an absolutely amazing experience. Thank you all for making my appointment not only memorable, but fun as well! I truly enjoyed my experience with your incredible team.

Check out her personalized stamp on my dental swag! Selena is another great reason to choose TYFD- she's organized, responsive, and doesn't make you feel a burden whenever appointment adjustments are needed. When I needed a new crown, they were able to accommodate this procedure the same day. Lastly, Dr. Nguyen and Dr.Le both are super nice and... busy. There were a few visits where I was handed off to other dentists (also nice but not them). Overall, TYFD is worth the patient transfer from La Mesa Dental Artistry.

From the front desk staff, to the hygienists, dentist, anesthesiologist, everyone was just so comforting & compassionate towards us. My son had to have dental work done under anesthesia and I cried like a baby, but they were very good at reassuring me that he was well taken care of. They updated us on him every couple minutes until his procedure was done & they stayed with us in the recovery room to make sure he was okay to go home -- even made sure we made it safely into our car. There's no doubt that this team truly cares about their patients. I would 1000% recommend this office to everyone! Thank you, Dr. Mahmood for such a comforting experience (coming from an anxious mama!).

    I can't recommend this pediatric orthodontist enough. From the start, I appreciated that he never…read morepressured me into getting braces for my kids before they were ready. He actually advised us to wait, which I respected. Three of my kids have now had braces here, and their teeth look amazing . Even my grandson--who inherited my overbite and crooked teeth--has a beautiful smile now . The real game-changer, though, was getting sealants. One of my kids didn't get them early on and needed a crown, which was stressful and expensive . After that, I got sealants for the rest of the kids, and we've avoided cavities altogether . I saw a negative review about the sealants once, and honestly, it made me sad . In my experience, sealants saved us thousands . Sedation, crowns, and dental work for kids can add up fast. $350 is a fair price for high-quality protection--and the materials they use here are top notch. I've had crowns from other offices that felt rough, but the ones we got here were smooth and well-made . This office doesn't cut corners. Another huge plus is that the doctor is both a pediatric dentist and an orthodontist--‍ a rare combo! That means you don't have to visit separate offices for cleanings and braces. The staff is amazing, the care is thorough, and the office itself is beautiful, clean, spacious, and calming--truly one of the nicest dental offices I've ever seen . They also make the process fun for kids! Prizes after appointments, and when the braces come off, they do a red carpet-style celebration with a treat bag . It's adorable and memorable. And I have to say--as the parent of a child with stage 3 autism, this office has been such a blessing. The staff is patient, understanding, and the environment is soothing and sensory-friendly. Anyone raising a child with autism knows how difficult dental visits can be, but here, we've felt supported every step of the way . And for families who need it--he's also fluent in Spanish, which is so helpful for many parents . Bottom line: this place is 100% worth it. The quality of care, the honesty, the atmosphere--it's everything I hoped for. Plus, it's in a great shopping center with everything you might need nearby . If you're looking for a pediatric dental and orthodontic office you can trust, this is it .

    We are almost done, a week more until my daughters braces come off. One thing I would recommend is…read moree-mails or text messages of what happened each appointment, and what will happen next appoint. I had to call the dentist often, for updates. My daughters dad stated that she could have the same braces on for three months, when I called the dentist gave me different information to bring her in. I think this might just be a divorced parents problem lol..... service and treatment it self as been very good. I'd just say get better at communication.
