At first, I was really taken back by how high-tech this office is! They have many cool specs like taking 3D images of your mouth. I was quite impressed and excited to start my dental journey. Upon walking in, the receptionists were all very kind and welcoming. They have coffee and water in the waiting room and were helpful answering questions about insurance and scheduling. I was taken back by a dental assistant and she was very kind! She took xrays and got me ready for the doctor. Dr. Shah was very informative and let me know everything that needed to happen to make my mouth happy! I needed some fillings and a crown done. I appreciated the payment plan option and put it to use for my visit/work that needed to be done. Upon coming in for my fillings and crown, I was quite nervous. Dr.Shah knew of my anxiety, as it was in my chart. I was visibly nervous and the needles didnt add anything good to how I was feeling. I let him know I would need more numbing as my teeth as sensitive from my grinding. He numbed me up and then wanted to work on me immediately after the injection. I asked if I could wait a bit to let the numbing kick in and he agreed but seemed to be a bit annoyed. After waiting a minute or so, he began to try to work on mh teeth and I continued to experience pain. I asked for more numbing and he agreed. Again, he seemed to be annoyed. Maybe because he had another patient to get to? After asking to let the numbing kick in again, we proceeded with my treatment shortly after. This time, I was more numb. When I was called to come back for my new crown, I was excited for my process to be done! I sat down and the dental assistant removed my temporary crown. She gently scraped at my tooth as I had some adhesive stuck to it still. She was very gentle but my sensitivity was severe. She let me know that we can apply topical anesthetic to see if that helps and if it doesnt, I can get the numbing injection. I agreed and she prepared the tray with the topical and injectable anesthetic. When Dr.Shah came in to apply the crown, he was ready to get to work. I let him know of my discomfort/pain and what I had discussed with the dental assistant. He applied the topical numbing and it instantly lit up my face with pain. My teeth are so sensitive! I closed my mouth and held my face. He asked if I was okay and I said "Yes, but I am in pain". He proceeded to attempt to dry my tooth off with the air and I continued to express my pain in tensing up, vocally moaning and at times letting him know it was painful. He just kept asking if I was okay but never seemed to think to give me the injection of anesthetic. As he was preparing to blowing the air to dry my tooth, I could feel the air circulating around me and in my mouth even though it wasnt being blown directly on me. It was painful and he chuckled saying "Im not even blowing air on your tooth yet". The dental assistant kept saying "just 10 more seconds" over and over again. What was supposed to be "10 seconds" of pain turned into minutes and minutes of pain. It was a lot to go through and the service could have been made comfortable by taking the time and giving me the injection of anesthetic. I felt like he was rushing to get to his next patient and didnt want to take that time to make me comfortable. To be completely vulnerable in this review, I had a panic attack in the car and cried all the way home while still in pain. I was in pain for about an hour after this all happening. I couldnt fall asleep because I was having flash backs of being in the office and feeling the pain I had. All of this could have been prevented. The following day was my last encounter at the office. I was coming back in to have my bite guard adjusted after getting my crown. I have to admit, I was quite traumatized by my last visit and asked my wife to come in with me as support for this last appointment. I was dreading going back but I needed this guard fixed. Dr.Shah came in and got right to work and asked about my sensitivity. I did let him know of my experience pertaining to him laughing and how I didnt feel like that was professional. He apologized and thanked me for my feed back. I did not get into what other things I experienced as I was not ready to talk or deal with that. The dental industry has a strong record of being something that people are afraid of. I was taken back to have that become my reality after my visit here at Riverbank Modern Dentistry. I have never had an experience quite like this before. read more

Dr. Shah and his team are wonderful. They greet you once you walk and assist you immediately. They took my father in right away because he was having dental issue. read more

Best dental experience I've ever had! I've always been nervous at the dentist and Dr. Shah and his team are so kind, efficient and professional! We just moved to the area and needed a new dentist. At my initial visit Dr. Shah was so kind and patient in explaining what work I would need to get done. I needed to get a crown so I was incredibly nervous about the procedure and he explained in detail what to expect and the cost. I just finished getting my temporary crown put in this morning and the whole process was so quick! He and his dental hygienist we're so sweet and kept me up to speed on where we were in the process and made sure to touch base on my comfort level/pain level. Im also a huge fan of all the modern equipment they use, normally the worst part of the dentist for me is the numbing shots and it was almost completely painless! The device they used to add the numbing shot played this cute little song and said how much medication was being administered lol I really felt so safe and comfortable the entire time which is such a new feeling for me when going to the dentist. My husband had to get a mouth guard because he grinds his teeth and they gave him the 3D printout of his teeth lol how cool! read more

I have always had a ton of anxiety around dental care. Dr. Shah and his team treated me with the most respect and care possible. Explaining every step of the process. I needed quite a few things done and the team was patient, kind and understanding. They answered all of my questions and have been great accommodating appointments and schedules. In most cases they were able to complete more in a visit to reduce the amount of visits I needed. I have completely changed my attitude about seeing the dentist every 6 months! I will never miss another appointment. I am grateful they are close to home and provide fantastic care. read more

I highly highly recommend Riverbank modern dentistry. Dr Shah is fabulous. Very thorough. Kind and gentle. I had two separate issues that I had to go in for and he was just so accommodating. I got in easily taken care of and got out. I've recommended him to several friends who are going to be getting in touch with him. The entire staff is outstanding! You couldn't ask for anything better. You won't be unhappy. read more

My experience here was amazing. Especially if your regular dentist no longer takes Delta Dental and you are thinking about changing. I have a long history of needing constant dental care and a short history of finding dentists who believe me about my sensitivities and work with me to deal with them. I feel very comfortable that anyone scared to go will find this a dental practice that actually cares, deals as best as possible with the patients issues, and appreciates your business. I got in quickly. They were very gentle with me. read more

Dr Shah and team are absolutely AMAZING!! I called on a Friday afternoon to inquire about their acceptance of new patients and was able to get an appointment same-day! I'll admit that I was nervous going in due to not being able to see a dentist regularly for many years, but the entire staff was so welcoming and non-judgmental. Thankfully, I don't need too much work done, but I will definitely be returning to them for my dental needs! read more

I was having pain from a gum infection that needed attention. I searched the internet for a dentist near me and discovered Dr. Shah had great reviews. I made an appointment and when I arrived at the dentistry I encountered a pleasant staff. Then, when I got to meet Dr. Shah, and while he was diagnosing my dental problem, I was confident that I chose the right dentistry. He explains every move he makes and ensures the patient experiences the least amount of discomfort. The dental technicians working with the doctor are very competent and pleasant. This dental facility is neat and clean. I needed to have two molars removed and replaced with a bridge. After many weeks of treatment, removing teeth and installing the bridge, I can say that this was the best experience I have ever had being treated by a dentist. The bridge is comfortable and looks good. I definitely recommend Dr. Shah and his staff. read more

I had been in search of a practice for several years. Came across Riverbank Modern Dentistry in my research and thought i'd give it a try. I was in for service within 5 days as was my husband. The staff at Dr. Shah's office along with Dr. Shah were so very very welcoming and explained everything thoroughly and clearly. Each person I had the opportunity to meet was a pleasant experience from start to finish. The practice is warm and welcoming and Patricia at the front desk is so very kind and knowledgeable! Krista was amazing once I got to the back and explained everything precisely and made taking xrays easy going. Beyonce was also great and can tell she is very knowledgeable and caring. . Dr. Shah thank you for pronouncing my name right the first time and for your excellent care during my visits. I have no doubt that the delivery of your office and care was more then 5 stars! I am looking forward to long term care with you and your office. Mahalo for all your help. Highly recommend Riverbank Modern Dentistry! read more
