    Don't worry, Be HAPPY

    The dentist's office is usually a place that makes me nervous, but Paul Jang Dentistry is different. Every time I visit here I feel genuinely happy Today, I had a dental cleaning--it was so thorough and refreshing Thank you, Paul Jang Dentistry!

    Jang did not double check his assistant's work and this is what resulted. I will never let these people touch my mouth again.

    **Google Reviews did not allow me to post my review, which leads me to believe this business can flag negative reviews there. Very shady.** 4 yrs of botched work, yet I didn't leave a bad review even after I had to go into Jang's office 5 times because he and his assistants made poor temporary crowns that kept breaking or popping out, even though I ate carefully (1.5 hr total commute each time). I didn't leave a bad review after Jang said he was skilled in root canals and did mine instead of referring me to a specialist, only for it to fail, leading to a painful infection and extraction/implant. He refused to take responsibility and got angry and defensive when I suggested he performed a failed root canal. I was so upset by his response and lack of remorse, but I held my tongue. But after what he and his office did to my tooth most recently, I feel it's important to share my experience. I went in for an opinion on an aching molar, which he said had decay under a large filling and that he recommended a crown. I decided to do the procedure with him even though my gut told me to run--his services are more affordable than most dentists (for reasons I now understand). He removed the decay and told me I might be on the verge of needing a root canal, so he'd put a temporary crown on, and I needed to assess the pain for a few days. He disappeared, and his dental assistant made and put on the temporary crown. She told me I was good to go, but I asked if an X-ray was needed. She said it wasn't. Jang didn't come back to double-check her work or see if I was all good. I had a bad feeling, but I wrongly trusted them and left. I experienced more pain than I ever had as the anesthesia wore off, so I immediately emailed Jang. He said if this was the case, I definitely needed a root canal. However, when I looked at the temporary crown, it looked all wrong--the top of the crown at the gingiva (gum) was noticeably high, and I could see it was cutting into the gum. I missed 3 days of the first classes of my semester because the pain was unbearable--I had severe migraines and couldn't eat or talk. I had to take 800mg of ibuprofen and use medical MJ for 4 nights just to sleep, but I still woke up every hour because of the pain. I finally saw a specialist 4 days later. The dentist couldn't find a reason for a root canal but saw that the temporary crown was poorly fitted and too high around the edges, cutting deeply into my gums. Jang's assistant had also used a stronger cement for the temporary crown that caked around the edges and burrowed into my gums, which was visible in the X-rays. I've attached photos of the significant damage caused to my gum by Jang's temporary crown--there are large holes around the tooth, the gum is torn open, separated from the tooth, and raw. I was shocked that a temporary crown could cause this level of damage--this was the first time I had ever seen or heard of this. If Jang had taken two minutes to check his work and take an X-ray, he would've seen that the crown and cement were problematic. The crown bite was also far too high, causing severe trauma in the inert tooth below and intensifying the pain. Furthermore, Jang finished the decay removal without a build-up and just put a crown on top, even though he informed me there was a nerve dangerously close to the surface. The specialist was surprised to see that a build-up wasn't done, as this is typically necessary when the nerve is nearly exposed. How can a temporary crown cause THIS much damage? I had the most agonizing experience here, and the pictures prove it. I was afraid to speak up about the challenging experiences I faced because my entire family goes to his office, but after this, they're not going anymore. I am relieved to finally share my experience honestly and caution others based on what I've been through. UPDATE--4 days after removal of the temporary crown: I am still in so much agony because of the awful ditch Jang's temporary crown dug around my tooth. I have been woken up every night because of the horrible, aching pain. I am unable to eat solid foods. My quality of life has significantly been ruined EVERY single time Jang has worked on my teeth. I cannot recommend avoiding him enough. Like, come on. There are dentists in Ventura County who don't have reviews saying "he's inexperienced," or "his root canals failed," or "his temporary crown wrecked my gums and tooth." The fact is that Jang hasn't been a dentist long enough to avoid mistakes. Is sacrificing your health, well-being, time, and quality of life worth the few hundred dollars you might save from using his services? Please don't do yourself a disservice by believing all the good reviews because there IS a chance his short career will translate into negligent botchery. Please go to a more experienced dentist. I regret ever coming across this man. For 4 yrs he has wasted my time and caused me so much PTSD. Please learn from my mistake and don't go to him.

Dr. Batlle and his entire office staff have been nothing short of amazing. As someone who has never enjoyed going to the dentist, I truly appreciate Dr. Batlle's compassion, patience, and professionalism. He takes the time to explain everything, checks in throughout the appointment to make sure I'm comfortable, and is incredibly diligent and detail-oriented in his work. I never feel rushed, and it's clear that he genuinely cares about his patients and protecting their long-term dental health. What impressed me most is that he successfully fixed a problem created by my previous dentist. His knowledge and attention to detail gave me confidence that I was finally in the right hands. I'm so grateful for the outstanding care I've received from both Dr. Batlle and his staff. If you're looking for a dentist you can trust, someone who is skilled, honest, compassionate, and truly invested in your oral health, I can't recommend them highly enough!! Thank you!

He has one of the best dental hygienist in Ventura County for those maintenance visits which keep your teeth clean and gums healthy. The front office is professional, thorough, timely and always has a great attitude. His assistant when you are in the chair is attentive and seems to read Dr. Batlle mind. The whole practice runs like a finely tuned team. I recently had a upper molar that needed to be removed, grafted and implanted. The crown that Dr. Batlle had to create was a difficult project due to the imperfections of the adjacent teeth. His careful examinations and measurements along with his exacting patience to create the perfect crown was an impressive engagement with a life long positive result. I will continue to drive 3 hours to and from my dental appointments to stay engaged with this well run dental practice.

Before treatment, I explained that I had been experiencing tenderness in my gums on the right side for over eight months and was concerned that replacing the crowns wouldn't solve the problem. I was repeatedly assured the pain would go away and was told it was likely from chewing on that side. When I continued expressing my concerns, the dentist dismissed me by saying I was "a sensitive woman." The pain never improved. I later saw two different periodontists, both of whom diagnosed me as needing a crown lengthening procedure and confirmed there was a legitimate reason for my pain. While saving for that procedure, I continued treatment on the left side, where I had a root canal and post buildup completed. When I returned for a temporary crown, the dentist refused to continue treatment until I completed the crown lengthening on the opposite side. I explained that I fully intended to have the procedure but simply needed time to save for it. Despite having reports from two periodontists explaining the cause of my pain, he continued to question it, telling me, "In my 30 years of practice, I've never seen anything like this." He even suggested I would probably start complaining about the left side as well, even though I had no pain there. When I tried to explain my situation, he repeatedly interrupted me, told me to "calm down," and refused to listen to what I was saying. At that point, I decided to leave and seek treatment elsewhere. To make matters worse, when I called afterward to request my dental records, the front desk employee told me he would email them to me, said "alrighty," and abruptly hung up on me. Being dismissed as "a sensitive woman" instead of having my concerns taken seriously was one of the most upsetting parts of this experience. My pain was ultimately validated by two independent periodontists. Every patient deserves to have their symptoms taken seriously and to be treated with respect--not dismissed with comments like that. I cannot recommend Arroyo Dental based on my experience.

There was a puddle of rust-colored water under the chair I sat in, and several tools were visibly dirty, including ones used in my mouth during the X-ray. I went in for simple tooth sensitivity to cold water. After taking X-rays and blowing air on my tooth (which I stated did not cause any pain or sensitivity), the dentist, Dr Izadi, immediately told me I needed a root canal or I would "wake up with an abscess in excruciating pain." He pointed to squiggly lines on the X-ray claiming it was an infection. He was extremely pushy, insisting I needed the root canal ASAP the following Monday morning, clearly trying to scare me before I could get a second opinion. I asked for my X-rays so I could get a second opinion elsewhere, and that's when things got even more suspicious. When I requested my X-rays later that day, I was told their server was down. When I finally picked them up the following morning, they only gave me X-rays of my molars, even though the tooth in question was a front tooth. When I called back for ALL of my X-rays, I was told they "couldn't find them" and they must have been deleted. They offered me to retake them Monday morning before my root canal (that I had already told them I wanted to cancel). I then went to a different dentist for that second opinion. New X-rays were taken, and I was told there was no infection and absolutely no need for a root canal or crown. It is clear Dr. Izadi was trying to sell me unnecessary dental work and used fear tactics to pressure me into scheduling it urgently. And honestly, even if I had needed a root canal, there is no way I would ever have had it done in such a filthy, unsanitary office. To make things worse, when I originally had asked for pricing, the front desk woman scoffed at me and acted annoyed that I questioned the unusually high copay. I strongly advise avoiding this office. Between the dirty conditions, missing X-rays, pressure tactics, and attempts to push completely unnecessary procedures, this place is a massive red flag. The only positive was the kind dental assistant- everything else was unacceptable.
