    I had an awesome experience at Ladera Ranch Dentistry and Orthodontics. Dr. Nik recently did a…read morecrown for me, and she really does incredible work. Beyond being so knowledgeable, she is genuinely friendly and takes her time to make sure everything is done right. It's clear she really cares about you as a human being and is fully focused on fixing the condition at hand while making sure you're comfortable. Chanel, the office manager, is just as wonderful. She truly cares about every patient in the office and goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of in every way possible. It's rare to find a practice where everyone is this invested in your well-being. I'm so happy I found them!

    I originally went to this practice after my previous dentist of 40 years retired. It was close and…read morefairly new looking. On my first visit, I should have turned around after I went to the men's bathroom and found it was also being used as a storeroom for supplies, ala Mar-a-Lago--MY mistake #1. When I mentioned the sanitary implications, the scheduler said it was just temporary storage for an upcoming humanitarian trip. To describe this assembly line office is difficult. Everybody has a task, and the treatment rooms are open concept, just low pony walls separating treatment areas with no doors. You can literally hear four different conversations going on at once; if you want privacy, this isn't your place. This is a large practice composed of merry-go-round 1099 dentists--never saw the same one twice in over 10 years. The great hygienist I saw was the only reason I kept going back, since I have good teeth and only had one cavity in 60 years. The pressure to upsell with fluoride treatments, shorter cleaning intervals, deep cleaning, and sometimes concerning observations about gum and bone issues (which turned out to be nothing) were just part of the upsell routine. Dealing with this by saying no, was worse than dealing with the F&I closer at a car dealer. I had one twenty year old crown that was examined by the dentist on duty and told there was hidden decay under it that should be dealt with. After the dentist poked around under the cap, I got home and noticed it affected the bite. Afraid I was going to have it come off, I reluctantly scheduled to have it replaced by the examining dentist--MY mistake #2. I had to pay ahead of time to have the appointment scheduled, and showed up in a room next to others where multiple caps were being done at the same time by one dentist. Hearing the uncomfortable sounds from adjacent rooms made me realize somebody was having major issues! Unfortunately, I was the low guy on the treatment totem pole, I was waiting uncomfortably supine more than being worked on. My tooth was hurriedly ground down A LOT and my delay was supposedly linked to the cap being "printed" and cured. After the procedure was done, the dentist said the root was close and that "we'll have to monitor it", MY mistake #3. Fast forward after weeks of dull pain in my lower jaw, which would not subside; the pain becoming acutely worse. I emailed the office and got the equivalent of a "take two aspirin" recommendation, after being told it might be a bite misalignment, supposedly a common post treatment problem. I then called the office requesting a "head" dentist appointment. Since he only works Fridays, I would have to wait the week. The pain got so bad, I got a referral from one of my doctors to his personal dentist, who saw me within the hour and immediately set me up with an endodontist for an emergency root canal, all within four hours! If the owner of Ladera can't be bothered to take care of one of his long time patients in pain, how do you think you'll fare as a newbie? After I called to cancel my Friday appointment after I told them I had an emergency root canal, they offered not even an apology or refund of the botched cavity/crown job! Learn from my mistakes and go elsewhere. No matter who your general dentist is, if you need a root canal, this is a procedure where you want a specialist. An Endodontist requires an extra two years of specialized training above a general DDS, with the specialized training, equipment, and staff who do these procedures all day.

    Complete disregard for patient's time. I have already made plan to go to this appointment that I…read moremade 6 months ago. I was given two contradictory voicemails. On one, I was told that my appt time for Saturday confirmed then on second voicemail, about 45 minutes later, it was canceled due to not confirming. All this while I was still at work and all calls went to voicemail. I have proofs of both contradictory voicemails. I won't be coming back. Update: This is in response to the Dr. reply... Per the first voicemail, it says that I was confirmed by not having to respond. So your policy seems inconsistent and it is not fair for patients who made appts for Saturdays 6 months in advance. And you're not saving me money from cancellation fee, when I didn't plan on canceling. I knew of my appt and made plans to go. Your business hours say your office closes at 1pm on Fridays. Maybe you should update that. I would never recommend a place that doesn't respect patients' time.

    I have been going to Dr. Samra for over 20 years. There was a period where I was not in his area…read moreand went to another dentist. That dentist specialized in implants. The other dentist said I needed an implant and wanted $4500 for the that.

Samra after 12 years and much to my surprise Dr. Samra did a a root canal and a crown and saved me $2500 vs the implant. Plus the trauma of an implant.

    Front desk action and doctor communication get 5 stars, Dr. Fatehi (Don't know if I spelled that…read morewrong) is so cool! They seem to really take care of you. OK First let me tell you about the bad experience from the last office that brought me to this office so you'll understand why I like it: Basically, my other dental office wanted to charge me $1650 for an implant crown and to me that is outrageous considering when this is all over with I would have been able to buy a car. There are other types of crowns but my last office said I could only have one (Blue Block) and perhaps another that was similar in price. I looked online though, and found out that that wasn't the case. I could get the regular porcelain fused to metal if I want to. But nope, they wouldn't do it. Hmmmm empty spot where tooth used to be and buy a car? Or new tooth? OK well I care about myself so I went with the new tooth, that doesn't mean I am just gonna say ok when someone presents me with a $1650 bill for a crown (that's including insurance).... so I called around. While hardly any other dental offices would give me prices over the phone, Ladera Ranch Dental did which shows me that there is no BSing with the pricing. They obviously charge everybody the same price, no negotiations here and I like it like that. It's obviously a place that doesn't rip you off. In the past, my last office had lowered the price by saying, "Oh I can give you a special deal". WTF!!! Special deal? We are not buying trinkets at a swap meet! This place was just straight forward and it was much, MUCH cheaper, without insurance!!! So, that's what got me in the door. Obviously I care more about things then my wallet, but money can make or break a decision.... So, now I am here. The experience has been great and they have been great. They are so professional and comforting and just overall a great experience.

    My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Fatehi's since 2004. The staff, hygienists, and Dr…read more Fatehi are all wonderful people. I've never had a problem here. Appointments are promptly started, the office and equipment are clean and modern. Dr. Fatehi oversees all of his patients even if it's a hygienist you've been worked on. Computerized x-rays are instantaneous and painless (compared to the old school sharp and stiff xray pieces I used to have to bite down on). Each visit has been pleasant. I've never felt rushed or had pain after a visit. Our daughter is also a patient and they are really good with children.
