Had me come second time so general dentist, Dr. Cabana could do a full evaluation, she would not refer me to specialist even though I was in pain for 3 weeks now. I could not see the in office periodontist without the general dentist evaluation. I was in pain and frustrated with thier red tape policy. She wrote on MyChart I was rude! As a trained doctor she should know it is frustration with being in pain so long. The staff was rude and unempathetic, and Dr. Cabana is unprofessional. I would not go to thr office under any circumstances, very bad experience. I went to another office and was seen by a specialist within a few days. They understood it is a priority when a person is in pain. Poor medical decision made by periodontist at Rancho Mirage Dental Office insisting I have full eval from a general dentist first. I was there twice, why didnt Dr. Cabana do the eval on the first visit. Trying to make money off my insurance? I dont understand their thinking. I reporyed them to a few boards and to my insurance. Do not go there for quality care. It does not exist. ​​​

Seemed like a good, competent dentist, but…read more.. The office doesn't look like a typical dentist office: it's located in a poorly maintained 1960s building that was clearly built for some other purpose. Instead of the usual bland or soothing music, they were playing a rock radio station with at least one political commercial that would have caused me to change stations, if I could have. (Maybe not the right environment, if going to a dentist makes you anxious.) Office was decorated almost exclusively with covers from those advertising magazines you get in the mail proclaiming "Best Dentists in Coachella Valley!" They charged me for services I didn't ask for, and they didn't explain why they were necessary or say it wouldn't be covered by insurance; specifically, they asked for $25 as I was leaving. I thought it was odd, but paid it. When I got the explanation of benefits from by insurance (United Health Care), it said I didn't owe any copay or deductible for the visit. When I called Dr Aguilar's office about it they had an instant answer (as if they're asked all the time); "We took photos [not x-rays] of your teeth and applied fluoride, and that's not covered by insurance." I remember getting these services at my appointment but thought it was odd because no other dentist has ever done that for me. It was an upsell without any selling.

To charge an additional $500 for a cleaning that takes an extra 5 minutes is crazy. Wouldn't recommend this office to anyone. My current office said my hygiene is perfect and my teeth are looking great (which they are) BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR BILL. They will double charge you on basic things to cover their butt with insurance companies. They must be covering up these reviews as well. With how many 0 stars they have it's impossible for them to have a 4 star review. They're frauds

She was very considerate and empathetic of my situation. I went to Mexicali where my teeth are at risk of no longer existing due to their horrible care. I wish I would've known sooner if this office. They may have been able to save my teeth. It was pricey as all dental care is but my insurance did help tremendously. The gentleman that cleaned my mouth took excellent care of me and would stop if ever I was in pain. I can't wait to go back and that's something I never thought I'd say about a dental office. Please give me a try. Ask for their opinion and please consider them for your next evaluation and your next appointment will be wonderful.

I was very dissatisfied with my experience at this dental office. I was given an extensive and…read moreexpensive treatment plan that included several procedures I do not believe I need and that differed significantly from recommendations I received from another dentist I have seen for years. This included a surgical wisdom tooth extraction and oral surgery consultation rather than the simple extraction I had previously been advised I needed, as well as over $300 out of pocket for ridge preservation, even though I specifically explained that I was not planning to have an implant or bone graft. I also was especially concerned that a broken tooth my previous dentist believed could potentially be restored with a post and crown was instead recommended for extraction and replacement with a denture. When I questioned the treatment plan and costs, the front desk employee was rude and ultimately told me I would be better off going to another office. I agree. I will be getting another opinion and taking my dental care elsewhere. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this office, and I strongly recommend getting a second opinion before agreeing to an extensive treatment plan here.

Dr. Kim and his team are FANTASTIC! If I could give them a 10 star rating, I would. My dad was in a…read morevery dire situation with his teeth. He had lost most of his back teeth (upper and lower) and the ones in the front that were remaining were in horrible shape. His lower front teeth were almost all gone due to years of grinding and the upper ones were breaking away one by one. We were in a desperate situation to find a solution other than completely removing his remaining teeth and putting him in complete dentures. With the care, knowledge and talent of Dr. Kim, his assistant Gina, and their lab, my father now has a gorgeous smile and fully functional teeth. Since my dad did not have enough bone mass for implants, Dr. Kim still found a way to create a PERMANENT upper and lower bridge. He also added an extra tooth on the lower set as well as on the upper set. This created an elongated surface that allows my dad to chew food better since he has NO back molar teeth. Dr. Kim, Gina, ad the lab performed a miracle! We can never thank them enough for what they have done. I've included some photos so everyone can see the smile my father now has. He truly looks and feels 20 years younger!!! His confidence is back and he is once again social. Without Pure Dental, my dad would have lost all of his teeth and I know that emotionally, it would have taken away his spirit. We are eternally grateful to have found Dr. Kim and his team.
