Great first visit. Everybody was polite and went to great lengths to make me feel comfortable during my visit. I think I found my new dentist! read more

Came in and they did a great job cleaning my teeth. The staff was friendly and helpful. They definitely live up to their reputation.

Dr. Vane at Moonlight Beach Dental is the best!! She is straight forward and honest with her recommendations. No up-selling, which I can't stand. She presents the diagnoses, lays out the options and allows the patient to make educated decisions. The waiting room is cozy with soothing decor. Her front office staff is welcoming and efficient. Cheryl, one of the dental assistants, greeted my 7 year old with a warm smile and was super friendly. The overall experience is better than any dental office I've ever visited. We are actually looking forward to future visits. She will be our family dentist for life! read more

This is the best dental office I have ever been to. I love the entire staff, so friendly and helpful. Dr. Vane is an amazing dentist and is very gentle making it less painful. I had a temporary bridge that came out over the weekend and Rachelle who is one of the dental assistants came in to glue it back in on a Sunday. Obviously if you have the same problem it won't always work out for someone to come in especially for you, but the stars aligned and I really appreciate her going the extra mile. So happy with this entire crew! read more

I'm a big fan of Dr. Vane and team; they're all professional, friendly and great at what they do. I may have even fallen asleep WHILE getting my teeth cleaned here a time or two... thanks for the excellent service. read more

Hands down best dentist of my life. People come to San Diego for the beaches but they stay for the top notch dentistry.

I hated dentists, until I went to see Dr. Vane. She is extremely talented at what she does. She always makes me feel at ease and clearly describes what she will be doing and why. She gives sound advice for at home care as well. Her entire staff is very friendly and provides great service. I travel over an hour to go to this office and it's well worth it to me! I actually don't get anxious over seeing the dentist anymore. I had an appointment with the hygienist Natalie yesterday to have my teeth cleaned. She was very gentle, it felt she was giving my gums a message instead of cleaning them. No lie, I fell asleep in the chair as she was cleaning. read more

ive looked at a lot of dentist websites lately and this one stands out .im glad they are on yelp i found them here 1st and im going to make an appointment , even if its a bit of a drive. the reviews and the services offered on their website looks great . i going there asap read more

Dr. Vane and her team provide exceptional care. I don't particularly enjoy going to the dentist, but have grown much more relaxed since becoming a patient here. Dr. Vane is extremely personable, has exceptional dental technology and is very skilled as a dentist. If you're in search of a dentist where you can feel at ease and are not pressured into extra products look no further. read more

It's a shame that Dr Vane's staff treats her customers so poorly. I would still be a patient of hers if they treated their patients better. I had a very simple question on my bill, left a message when I first received it, and never got a call back. Since no one called me back and I never got another bill, I figured they found the mistake and corrected it. Fast forward 60 days later I get a nasty email about an unpaid bill. I emailed them back, left a voicemail...no response from her office. I called AGAIN and talked to someone that couldn't answer my question and she made it clear that she didn't have time to "deal with me", and said that someone else would call me back. Still no phone call back. Who would have thought that trying to ask a simple question about my bill would be so difficult. read more

Never been to such an awesome dentist before! Cheryl was also a great hygienist, very friendly and gentle on the gums... Dr. Vane was very friendly and personable, and explained everything going on with my teeth - the TV with the live same day pictures and x-rays was pretty impressive. Also, little extras like the sunglasses and swag bag did not go unnoticed. Would definitely recommend to anyone around! read more

If you want a dentist who knows their stuff and is highly professional yet knows how to give exceptional service then you found her! I have a HUGE dental phobia as well as my kids and we have no problem going to her. I have been seeing Dr. Vane for about 3 years and she's worked wonders even on my teeth! She's fabulous, gentle, pain free, caring, extremely knowledgable and gives legendary service to every one of her patients with no questions asked! You will not be disappointed! Trust me! 10 stars in my book!! read more

Moonlight Beach Dental is great - Dr. Vane is friendly, professional and caring as is the entire staff! I really appreciate their more conservative (read: less aggressive) approach to dental care. Dr. Vane is thorough and favors maintenance and monitoring to procedures (at least so far). 4 stars because the office is a tad small/cramped, but I believe they are in the process of expanding their current location (don't quote me on that), which will be awesome and 5-star-worthy! And though it's not as important as their mad dental skills, the decor is super beachy and stylish, which I appreciate. read more

Dr. Vane is a dream dentist. I looooove her approach to dentistry; from her beautiful and unique office decked out in coastal-chic, to the fact that she is always dressed in beautiful dresses and heels while drilling away on patients. I can't stress enough that this is not a typical cold and clinical dental environment. My comfort is always a top concern and she and her entire staff make sure I am good with whatever they have to do, especially because I have a small mouth and I can't be the easiest person to work on. (2 crowns, 3 amalgam removals and replacements). The chill Spotify playlists and Moving Art help distract me and create a very calm ambiance, though you can watch movies if that's your thing. Dr. Vane is as friendly and personable as she is talented, which makes for a really great experience in the chair. read more

This place is like a spa and everyone treats as if you were in one! I felt pampered while getting a tooth repaired. Love this place and actually look forward to my appointments. read more

The staff was as friendly and comforting as they get! Thoroughly explained everything that I was having done and/or needed to have done. Thanks for a good dental experience! read more

Dr. Vane is as good as it gets! The Dr & staff at Moonlight beach dental are second to none. They think of every detail and they never forget to Thank me for my referrals. I know I am in good hands when I go to Dr. Vanes office. I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

My first experience with this office was amazing great bedside manners. But in my second appointment I was told I was schedule with dr. Vane and was seen by someone else thank good he was good. But this last visit dr vane removed by fillings and then a dental assistant end up doing my four fills. I am truly disappointed that I was told on the phone that dr vane would be doing my fillings. When I got home my filings were breaking and I can't even get the flossing string in my teeth. This last experience was truly disappointing. I am going to have to pay another dentist to fix my fillings totally not acceptable for a dental assistant to do my fillings. I will not go here again I drove two hours to get dr. Vane not her assistant. read more

I loved Dr. Vane and her staff! Everyone was super friendly from the time you walk in until you leave. The office is super cute. There are a lot of dentists in my area, but I chose Dr. Vane to be my dentist and feel comfortable entrusting her with my dental care, even though it is a little drive for me. She has a plethora of knowledge and is very informative. Her office is very modern with the highest technology. You can even pick a movie to watch while you're there. I even received a follow up phone call and text the following day. I love Dr. Vane and her staff! Will definitely be back :). read more

I went to multiple dentists in San Diego and had pretty bad experiences until I finally found Moonlight Dental. They are so great there - very friendly and they don't try to upsell you, which is an issue I've had with other dentists. It's very clean, cute, and they play good, relaxing music. I just recently moved to Orange County and am very sad I have to find a new dentist since this place is seriously the best! read more

I have known Dr. Vane for many years and I have always had a very pleasant experience working with her and her team. I recently had some work done and it was painless, easy, and fast. She uses all the most technologically advanced equipment that gives a great representation of exactly what is going on with your mouth including creating unique solutions to any issues one might have. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Moonlight Beach Dental to anyone. read more

From the moment I walked thru the door I knew I had FINALLY found a place to call my dentist. Dr Vane and her staff are so warm, welcoming, calming... and funny. My first visit was to get a second opinion.. She performed the exam and explained her suggested treatment plan.. She also confirmed what I already knew... the former dentist did poor work. My crowns were way to large and a totally different color than my teeth. The news was upsetting and yet reassuring that from this point forward things were going to be done correctly. Forward a week to my appointment for a crown and to replace a silver filling. Dr Vane was so upset and concerned that the other crown from the previous dentist would affect her work, and my health, since it was causing irritation to my gums because of the size she told me she was going to replace it.. free of charge. Who does that!!!! She does... because her patients are that important to her. So today I informed all of my co-workers about my dentist and encouraged them to make a change. Avis N. read more

I never want another dentist. I've hated even the idea of the dentist due to family practice- I pray they don't read this- but it's true. Dr. Vane is incredible. She and her staff are very knowledgeable, hospitable, and hilarious. Not only does Ms. Vane go above and beyond to explain everything, she makes the most timid comfortable. (Easy boys, her fiancé is a great dude. No lie.) I've had the blessed opportunity to have Dr. Vane work with my teeth a few times now, both fixing broken teeth and a superb detail job (a.k.a. Cleaning..) and I am headed back in to finish some more work that needs to be done. (Thanks heredity.) Thank you Dr. Vane and to your GREAT staff. Be seeing you again soon. Oh.. I must mention the new office- great work from the home sweet beach home touch.. To the big T.V.'s with a surf video wilst workin away at my mess. These girls are amazing at what they do!! read more

Dr. Vane and her staff are amazing! I have had extensive dental work done and have been more than pleased with the results and care I received on each visit. The atmosphere is so peaceful and zen. It's a relaxing and cheerful space, which adds to the comforting experience. The technology and advanced treatment approaches are unmatched. Moonlight Beach Dental will be my choice for eternity. Highly recommended. read more

This is an amazing office with a real focus on preventative care and maintenance. Clean, bright, you can watch tv while you get your cleaning done - I love it. I initially came here because I had a very tiny cavity on the side of a molar from my braces 15 years ago, and Dr. Vane was able to fill it with a material that allowed the enamel to grow back without drilling. She also made a new night guard for me that is small enough that I can close my mouth around, replacing the gigantic crappy one I got when I was on active duty. I normally have Cheryl as a hygienist, but have also seen Shannon - both are really great! I appreciate that they measure your gums every time you come in and look at the density of your teeth to find weak spots that might be developing so they can address the problem before it becomes catastrophic. They give you a super cute dental hygiene bag that is perfect for travel or your desk when you leave. They do take Delta Dental Insurance - a set of x-rays and cleaning was $48 after billing insurance, which is an awesome deal for the level of care! I have referred several friends here and those who have made the trek have said it was well worth it. read more

I loved everything about this office!! A peaceful location, incredibly friendly staff and loved the safe/non-toxic approach to dentistry! I'll definitely be recommending to friends :-) read more

Dr. Vane and her staff are awesome! You will get the best quality care by Dr.Vane. She truly loves her practice and patients. Dr.Vane is also always on top of the newest technology. She did my invisalign, which I LOVED and I also just starting bringing my 13 year old. The office is in a great location and her office manager is great about taking care of all the insurance paperwork. I recommend!!! read more

Efficient, polite and professional. Patient centered care. Comfortable, clean and nicely decorated space. Thank you.

Dr. Vane has been my dentist now for a few years. I never thought I would say this, but I actually enjoy going to the dentist now, thanks to Dr. Vane and her incredible staff. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and Dr. Vane is a true professional and master. I have always felt very comfortable with everything she has done, even when she's drilling! Also, it's clear that a lot of thought has gone into creating the perfect office space. The office is nestled into a cozy area, and it has a beachy feeling that almost makes you feel like you're on vacation, and not visiting the dentist! In short, if you are looking for a dentist, or need a second opinion on some dental work, I strongly recommend you call Dr. Vane's office. read more

BEWARE!!!! STAY FAR FAR AWAY! I came in as a new patient after reading all her wonderful reviews. Which I now know she pays patients with gift cards to leave these reviews... Which is against Yelp rules. I came into her office and was please with the cute decor and sweet receptionists. I was early for my appointment as asked my the staff and sat patiently reading her books on anti fluoride. It took them over 1 hour to see me. I saw Dr Vane repeatedly storm up to the reception area yelling at the receptionist. They looked very upset and stressed! I was very uncomfortable and felt like it was unprofessional and just plain mean. When I was finally called back for my appointment I sat and waited another 30 minutes for her to do my exam. When she came in she was all over the place with things that needed to be done but gave no clear explanation to why I needed to do thousands of dollars on so many crowns. My previous dentist that I loved took great care of me until the day he retired and the last appointment I had he said everything looked great. So I'm confused as to what happened. After seeing a different dentist for a second opinion my suspicions were confirmed and I did not need that many crowns. It's scary to think that a dentist that you should be able to trust can take advantage of patients like that. The entire exam seemed really rushed and I felt uncomfortable again as she criticized her staff in front of me another time. The staff was always very nice and accommodating but for some reason she was very rude to them. She even told one staff member that they were "WRONG" in front of me. They looked humiliated. Another thing that I thought was very odd was that she claims to be very holistic and has many holistic books in the waiting room that advise against fluoride, yet she gives out fluoride toothpaste and they polish my teeth with fluoride paste. I guess I'm just confused as to what her views really are. Another thing that drew me to her office was the fact that she advertised as having a very relaxing environment. The entire experience was anything but relaxing. It was VERY loud and chaotic. I would never suggest this place to anyone who does have dental anxiety. I didn't want to write a negative review but I also want other people to know what they are getting themselves into. I'm very surprised there are not more one star reviews read more

Avoid this place. I went to Moonlight Dental because of all the great yelp reviews, but take note of the negative reviews because they are spot on. Their egregious disorganization was extremely frustrating and unnecessarily wasted a lot of time. My husband and I got our teeth cleaned here (the hygienist was great -- thorough and nice-- this was the only highlight) They had a lot of high tech machines and Dr Vane spoke like she was on top of it. She recommended that I redo my crown/root canal and made it seem like it was urgent. However, I never received any follow up from the office after they told me that they'd send me a treatment plan that day or the next. I called several times, and they kept telling me my treatment plan was on its way. I got tired of their bad follow through, so I went to another dentist for a second opinion and treatment. When I finally did receive a call from Dr Vane's office, they let me know that they were delayed because they lost the notes from my appointment but will call me back when they found them. I never received a call back after that, not that I would consider going back. Not sure how they lost my records considering they had at least 2-3 people working the front of the office. On top of that, they lost my insurance information, and billed me instead of my insurance ... over 3 months later. This is after I called before my appointment to confirm they took my insurance and them photo copying my insurance card. Losing my appointment notes and insurance information shows their lack of diligence and that they cannot be trusted with private patient information. I had to pay out of pocket for my cleaning; since they did not bill my insurance until the following year, those charges were not included when calculating my maximum annual benefit and unfortunately I maxed out my dental benefits that year. I regret choosing Moonlight Dental, but I'm glad that I only had a cleaning and got out quickly. read more

From the waiting room to the chair, the service and quality of care from Dr. Vane and her staff was exceptional. I've been to several dentists in the area and there is no comparison - Moonlight Beach Dental out stands them all. Dr. Vane uses state-of-art equipment and technology leaving me assured i'm receiving the best dental care available. The supporting staff is organized, on-time, and professional. Additive is the newly renovated office - clean with a calming environment. Good healthcare providers are hard to come by - I'll always take the chance to acknowledge them to give deserved recognition. Moonlight Beach Dental, thank you! read more

This place was referred to me as I had moved and needed a new dentist. I went for my check up and all was good. Had a new crown put on... Minor issues with insurance.. You know the drill they tell you what you owe then you get work done then you owe more? How is that? They already confirmed with your insurance how much you will have to pay? Then I was in an accident and had face trauma.. Emergency doc said my teeth were okay but I wanted a second option. I called Moonlight Dental and they were going to get me in before Xmas.. I get it people are busy.. The receptionist took my call and said she would call me by 12 noon to verify appt. Never heard from them. 2 days later I called again and the voice mail said my call was to be returned by the end of the business day.. Never heard from them.. It's 2 weeks later? read more

My wife went there for some work with Dr. Godes before she left to go somewhere else. Our x-rays were there and we needed them for our NEW dentist. My wife called, the Dentist called, for over four days at least seven time we tried to get the x-rays. This morning, Thursday July 7 the Dentist called and said, "we need them now, the patient is coming in one hour." ALAS nothing. No time left. How can I recommend a practice who treats people like this. That is WHY I must give them a "0" read more

I love Dr. Vane and her staff! It had been two years since coming in to see her. I completely ignored my reminders for cleanings. You know how it goes - life gets busy. I finally came around to scheduling a cleaning, but also needed to be seen ASAP because I thought I had some sort of infection in my gums and didn't want to take a chance waiting out the 4 day holiday weekend. Lamar was able to get me in for a last minute appointment the following day. He put me on standby that day and called me the next day to let me know an appointment opened up. The hygienist was so thorough, gentle and super nice. I love that Dr. Vane is very holistic and natural-minded, too. Dr. Vane is really gifted at what she does. I love that she never stops learning. There's too many doctors/dentists who just reach "it" and stop. Not her. She's always learning about something new! She's sweet, upbeat, and funny. Her office is really clean and modern, yet it doesn't have that unwelcoming/sterile feel to it with that funky clean dental office smell (one of the things I used to hate about coming to the dentist!). She's truly a diamond in the rough. It's way too hard to find a truly holistic dentist out there these days. I'm so grateful to have found this place!!! Thank you, Moonlight Beach Dental! read more

Very professional and clean office. The whole staff was absolutely wonderful and welcoming. I get very nervous about dentist visits but I left this office visit smiling with extremely clean teeth! Thanks to the gentle yet effective hygienist Shannon Godfrey! Thank you to the whole staff for a pleasant experience. read more

I can't begin to say enough about Dr. Vane and the entire staff at Moonlight Beach Dental. I recently moved down here from Newport Beach and was in real need of a good local dentist. I always thought regardless who I use, I would always go back to my old dentist once I move back in a year or so. I'll tell you right now that even if I lived as far away as San Francisco I would without a doubt continue to go to Moonlight Beach Dental! Let me tell you why. First of all they are Professional and extremely knowledgeable. How calm and comfortable they make you feel when you are there is just short of amazing. And talk about top notch work at very reasonable prices. My old dentist in Newport was an okay guy but talk about expensive! Just another great thing about Moonlight Beach Dental, incredible work at very fair prices. If you want to talk about customer service they are over the top! Here's one reason why. Today is Saturday the day before Super Bowl Sunday and I'm experiencing the worst tooth pain because of a cracked molar. I called Dr. Vanes office to leave a message to see if there was anyway I could see her this week. She actually checked her message (on a Saturday at the office) and called my cell phone because she was genuinely concerned about how I was feeling. When I explained to her what was going on she not only called in a couple prescriptions, she is going to see me tomorrow on Super Bowl Sunday! If this isn't somebody who cares about her patients and there well being, I don't know what is. Thank you Dr. Vane, you guys are wonderful! Whitney R. Wills read more

Spending money at the dentist has NEVER felt so good until now! Recently I finally educated myself on the dangers of amalgam (mercury fillings)-something that I had a whole mouth of since probably early teen years. (and I'm 46 now) Looked up certified IAOMT dentists in the area and so glad I found Dr. Vane, her wonderful staff, and beautiful office!!! To have a medical professional accept and understand the dangers of these amalgams first off, is a blessing in itself. (dentists are brainwashed early on in school that they are safe) But to also have a strict and certified safe removal and even help with chelation information afterwards I am so impressed. I just had 1/2 my mouth fixed yesterday which included a 3/4 crown on one tooth. I literally sat in the chair and watched her 3D printer in the corner chisel/make my crown in minutes. It actually fits and works better than my tooth ever did and have absolutely no discomfort, pain etc. Going back Monday to have the left side of my mouth fixed and have 4 more of those ugly, toxic fillings removed and can not wait! I just can't say enough about my experience at MBD-it is so nice dealing with a competent business/staff. Dr. Vane cares and it shows-the night before my first sitting I got home to find in the mail a hand written note from Dr. Vane thanking me for finding MBD and for entrusting them for my care. I have NEVER received that type of formal correspondence from anyone in the medical profession EVER! That is the way to run a business and keep people coming back. I'd give 10 stars if I could! read more

Bright, clean and welcoming office. Friendly and professional. Gentle touch with the tools. I'm glad Dr. Vane and her staff are my dental providers. read more

Thorough cleaning, state of the art equipment, nice, friendly staff and a very thorough analysis of the state of my teeth! Great visit. ....um, or as great as any visit to a dentist can be... :-) read more
