The dental rooms felt outdated, older equipment. She rushed me through an appointment I booked same day since I had some pain, and the visit was quick. She gave me meds. I felt it was time to go.

Dr. Hedvat is nice, and a straight shooter. I am not sure he knows he has a sense of humor, but he makes me laugh. Dolores, the hygienist - well, she is amazing. I let her know that I am very sensitive to the epi when I am there for the deep cleaning, and she conquers it, and allows me to be epi free with minimal discomfort. She's gentle, kind, and funny.

I have seen the other side…read more I was a patient of this office for almost ten years. The quality of work was exceptional. My experience was always extremely positive. Sadly, I my insurance was no longer accepted by this office (due to a job change) I then transitioned to another dental office. That experience has been night and day between Advanced Dentistry. The other side is quite awful. Today, I reached out to this office to see if I can return. They were quick to respond. My hope is that my new insurance will get approved. The Smuddes and Dr. Cho (the Cho-sen One) are absolute rock stars!

The worst dentist. I won't waste my time saying anything…read moreexcept that if you are getting a dentist don't go here. He ran the drill across my lip He shoved the temporary in before cutting the excess off and then tried to shove it in again! I took it home and worked on it with a dremel for 2 HOURS before I could get it in and had to wait days to even try after he cut my gums up and then wanted to numb them so he could do it again. Thanks to his terrible work and manners I have not been to any dentist since except for extraction. After the 3rd time I couldn't bring myself to go back. After everything -- they hit us up for another $400 omg. couldn't care less about the debt notes but for no amount of money would I return. Is there a 0 ?

If I could give a negative star, I would! I have NEVER had such an unprofessional, petty, tacky,…read moreand overall gross experience as I did with Dr. Fridman and a male staffer. I had a front tooth crack in half and break off (a veneer I had previously done with another dentist). I was able to get in to see Dr.Fridman that same day which was great! She advised me that I needed a crown instead of a new veneer which I was skeptical about, but I figured she knew what she was talking about so I said ok and my tooth got shaved down and a temporary was placed on it until I would be returning for the crown. I went home and immediately questioned the choice to do a crown instead of a veneer. I was also concerned about matching the color of the new crown with my other veneers (I have 10 veneers on my top teeth). At this point, I decided to have all of my veneers redone and the 1 crown as it had been over 20 years since I had my veneers done. I decided not to go with Dr. Fridman who is a general dentist that also does cosmetic dentistry. I wanted a cosmetic dentist who SPECIALIZES in veneers and ONLY does veneers. I should be able to make that decision without the worry of having my general dentist drop me for making that personal choice. Well, that is exactly what happened. After getting my veneers done by Dr. Joshua Ghiam in Beverly Hills (his work is absolutely AMAZING!!!), I called to have a teeth cleaning done at Dr. Fridman's office. At first, I was told they could not find my information and then I was scheduled to go in. I got sick and had to reschedule, but this time I got transferred to the male staffer. Are you ready for this?!! He told me I was no longer an active patient in their system. Which clearly there is a lack of communication in that office because they had scheduled me for a cleaning weeks prior. When I asked why, he said "well you decided to go to another dentist". We went back and forth about why I chose to go to a specialized dentist for my veneers which in itself is ridiculous. His example was, "Imagine if you cheated on your boyfriend and then asked him to take you back." I still can't believe he said that....so unprofessional, tacky, petty, all of the above. So I got dropped by this dentist without ever being informed and apparently because I "cheated" on Dr. Fridman. I don't know who trained this male staffer or how old he is but WOW!!! SO UNPROFESSIONAL!!! He told me I could write an email to Dr. Fridman and ask her if she would reactivate my account. Seriously!!! NO THANK YOU!!! Needless to say, my husband and I both have a new general dentist. I DO NOT recommend this dentist! Nice job losing 2 patients!

I had the worst experience of my life with this dentist. First of all Dr Fridman purchased the…read morebusiness from Dr Barry and Susan Weber and only found out upon arrival for an appointment. I saw the Weber's fir 20 years and could never expect a better dentist. I arrived for a double crown which I was never advised by Dr Weber of a problem with the present crown. I never had any pain. Immediately Dr Friedman indicated I needed a double crown replacement which I had done. I knew right off the bat this was going to turn out badly. Dr Friedman was inexperienced in my opinion and regret the date I stepped for in her office. My double crown constantly has a throbbing pain. The staff are very polite so no complaints there but they are not performing the work. I personally would never go back or recommend Dr Friedman. You have been warned.

Dr. Okayama has a light hand. I didn't feel much when he numb my gum. He was so gentle that made my fear go away. I'm really scared of seeing the dentist sine I was a kid. I don't like the noise of the machine. But doctor Okayama made me feel less scared . He kept asking me if I'm doing Ok, how do I feel, is it hurt while in the procedure. (I have sensitive teeth).

I was scheduled for a deep cleaning today and was previously told it would take 1 hour and 20…read moreminutes for the treatment and I would have a $35 co-pay. The hygienist took 30 minutes and did not do a deep cleaning. She used a water tool and scraped for less than 15 minutes. I addressed this with the hygienist and she said I wasn't scheduled for a deep cleaning today and also that my teeth were "fine" so this was the end of my session. Previously at my initial cleaning, the hygienist said preferred to use the water tool over hand scraping as it hurt her hand. Today I felt a bit of callousness from the hygienist and figured she didn't like to scrape, hence she never asked me how I was doing during the cleaning or checked on my comfort level. Now I see she was annoyed that she had to scrape my teeth when she thought I did not have an appointment. I made this appointment at my last cleaning and was told that Wednesdays are best if I wanted to be treated by the hygienist. I cleared my work schedule for an hour and a half today so I could get a true cleaning at 9am. The office staff (lady) was kind, very apologetic and wanted to correct this, but there was nothing to resolve. If there was an error with this appointment, then I should have been told this when I checked in and should have been told that I was not going to receive a deep cleaning. The staff also did not make me pay the co-pay as it was not a deep cleaning. The staff overall are kind and warm, but I won't be going back to this office.

I had an emergency dental situation with a severely swollen wisdom tooth and unbearable pain, and I…read morehonestly can't thank Valencia Aesthetic Dentistry enough for what they did for me. I had called multiple places, but no one could accommodate me the same day. Most clinics only offered a consultation, and even after X-rays, I was told I'd have to wait a few days to see a surgeon. Meanwhile, my pain was getting worse by the hour. From the moment I called Valencia Aesthetic Dentistry, the experience was completely different. The front desk team was incredibly caring and understanding. They gave me a same-day appointment, and when I called again a few hours before my appointment saying the pain had become unbearable, they immediately asked me to come in earlier without any hesitation. When I arrived, I met Dr. Peyman, who evaluated my condition and explained that the wisdom tooth needed to be extracted due to the swollen gum covering it. Although the surgeon was only available after a couple of days, seeing the level of pain I was in, he took the initiative to perform the extraction himself. He reassured me that we could stop anytime if the pain was too much, which gave me a lot of confidence to proceed. What stood out the most was his expertise and care -- I didn't feel any pain during the entire procedure. It was smooth, professional, and honestly a huge relief after what I had been going through. After the procedure, not only did I feel immediate relief, but Dr. Peyman also personally followed up with me the next day to check on my recovery. That level of care is rare and truly appreciated. If you're ever in an emergency dental situation, this is the place to go. They don't just treat you -- they genuinely care about getting you out of pain as quickly as possible. Highly recommend.

I was a patient of Dr. Fealy, DDS for approximately 30 years and never experienced billing issues…read moreuntil the practice was taken over by Valencia Aesthetic Dentistry. During a routine annual check-up, I was told that one of my crowns was beginning to recede and that corrective treatment was recommended. Because I live on a fixed income, I specifically asked the office to verify my insurance coverage and confirm my exact out-of-pocket expense before I agreed to any treatment. I provided my insurance information and was told the office would verify everything with my insurance company. After supposedly confirming coverage, I was quoted an out-of-pocket cost of $792.30, which I paid on the day of the procedure in reliance on their representation. Approximately two months later, I received an additional bill for nearly $800.00 more. I immediately contacted the office and explained that this was NOT the amount I had been quoted. The response I received was simply: "Well, that's insurance companies for you." That explanation is unacceptable. The entire purpose of requesting a pre-treatment estimate was so I could make an informed financial decision before authorizing the work. No additional procedures were performed, there were no complications, and nothing changed regarding the treatment itself. In my opinion, quoting a patient one amount to secure approval for treatment and then billing more than double afterward is deceptive and unethical. As a result, I filed complaints with both the California Dental Board and the District Attorney's Office regarding these billing practices. Patients should be extremely cautious and insist on detailed written financial disclosures before agreeing to treatment at this office.

You know the routine, I saw the advertisement, completed a questionnaire, someone called, we spoke,…read morethey asked more questions and I scheduled an appointment. Once I arrived the wait was a bit longer than I expected. Finally I was called by the receptionist who whispered, "I don't know if they told you, but there's a $450 payment due before you can see the doctor, and we don't accept insurance." "You can see if your insurance will reimburse you, they might since this is considered preventative." I laughed and said No, I wasn't told. I'd driven over an hour so I paid it. After I paid the $450 I sat about 10 minutes and someone came smiling to take me on a "Tour" of the office. Yes, the office is "High Tech" I felt as if it was staged and all who played a part would get a bit of the $450 I payed that day. The two brothers, I believe one is a DDS were very relaxed and there was just something different about them. I felt as if they were putting on an act. After showing me the office they took X-rays, showed me and explained a bit of the procedures, answered questions and back to the waiting room. I was then called into an office and presented with some suggested minerals to take prior to beginning the procedure, $165. Next came the cost. Glad I was sitting down because $46,000 would have floored me. This spoke volumes to me. I honestly didn't feel comfortable from the receptionist whispering, to the DDS coming in the room gocking at me, to the person selling me the minerals. Have you ever been somewhere you know you're not welcome. That's how I felt. I'd actually spend the money if I felt welcomed and treated the same as the others who came in. So for me it's a NO! If I'm to spend that amount of money it's going to be with a business who values my business and respects me as a person. And know, it's not what you say, but how you are treated!

I did my research you see & I came to the overall conclusion that Dr. Lang who've I yet to personally meet & Dr. Ramsey are here to do GOOD work. Let me explain... My son who is 11 years old has a rather complex case with the Ortho. They recommended we get ANCORS aka TADS to retrain the JAW, (we have/had an underbite) as the first faze face mask did not work. We went to multiple Oral Surgeons for consults. I had heard many stories online about the different cultures of offices here in our community. I dived right in. It took me months to decided. It was an investment. Not many Drs are educated in this particular SURGERY!! Ramsey is tho! He is so educated and so YOUNG!! I loved how Ramseys office had a very comfortable vibe to it. The surgeon had his regular assistant and she was so nurturing to my child. Every time we went in she was there!! I loved the consistency!! Ana became like my son's MAMA DURING THE SURGERY!! He felt so at ease with her since I couldn't be in the room. She had it all UNDER CONTROL and was super calm!!! We had the surgery done in January and it is JULY now!! wow! time FLIES!! MY SONS JAW THO!! WOW THE TRANSFORMATION!! He's turning into a man!! its working and its so beautiful!!! his jawline. & With this tads surgery it will keep him from having MAJOR JAW SURGERY at 18 years old!! yay!!! A few more simple, but notable comments. Office was opened on time as we were one of the first appointments in the a.m. Office was/is always clean for surgery & follow up appointments. Office ran on time Doctors notes for school were super easy to get and I didn't forget for once, because the office was so calm. I was able to "think". *** If I had to pick on (-) Negative thing to say I would just say for the front office to work on phone wait times. There was a few times I had to wait 15-20minutes on hold which with children and life moving top speed is very difficult. I was able to stay patient tho cause I knew the wait was worth it for Ramsey!! You won't be disappointed! I want to THANK THE ENTIRE OFFICE Staff FOR CARING FOR MY FAMILY!!! I am so appreciative!!!

The day of my tooth extraction I was nervous and my anxiety was off the roof. But the lady that took me back first to sign the paper work was so friendly and helped me. But the tech that brought me back and got me ready was an angel. My anxiety was high and all I can do is talk and she was so kind to sit and talk with me. She gave me my aftercare and again answered all my questions. Once the surgeon started it honestly took less than 9 min to extract my tooth. The Dr also went over the after care. The only thigh I would have to say that I would have liked is that they made sure my ride was here and not just walk me out of the side door. I had to wait for my ride 20 min outside. I wish they would have asked if my ride was here and if not had me wait inside. Besides that the office is great! I will be returned for my implant soon.
