    Had an amazing experience at this office from start to finish. From a warm greeting by Kayla and…read moreSasha. To Denise calmly taking my x-rays and explaining the process and Dr. Nochez taking the time to answer all of my concerns. He explained simply what I should prioritize for my overall health. I was able to get treatment started same day and left with a clear plan on what I should prioritize next. Highly recommend coming to this office.

    I would not recommend this dental office…read more I was a patient here since last year. I wanted to see one of their specialists. I scheduled an appointment, only to find out when I arrived that the specialist only comes in once a month and that nobody had actually scheduled me for the specialist's day. It was a complete waste of my time. I initially took advantage of their promotional offer for X-rays and a partial deep cleaning. After that, I felt like the focus immediately shifted to selling me a much more expensive full-mouth treatment plan. When I wasn't interested in moving forward with the additional services, the staff's attitude seemed to change. The deep cleaning I did receive felt rushed and incomplete, as if the provider just wanted to get it over with. Another major concern was privacy. The office is so open and loud that I could hear staff discussing other patients' dental conditions, including details about gum recession and treatment plans. Patients should not be able to overhear information that should remain private. I was also quoted a very high price for a laser-assisted deep cleaning. Later, I overheard staff discussing different pricing for what sounded like the same treatment with other patients. When I questioned it, I was suddenly offered a "deal," which made me wonder how consistent and transparent their pricing really is. When I returned for treatment, my blood pressure was taken with an automatic machine that consistently reads higher than manual measurements. Because of the reading, I had to come back another day. Only after advocating for myself was a manual blood pressure check performed. The specialist I saw also seemed dismissive of my concerns. I left feeling like I was simply being told information I could have found online rather than receiving meaningful guidance specific to my situation. The biggest issue, however, involved an infected tooth that needed a root canal. I was quoted nearly $3,000 for the procedure, which I simply could not afford. I decided I would move forward with an extraction instead. When I called to schedule it, I was quoted over $2,000 because the doctor wanted to preserve the area for a future implant. If I couldn't afford the root canal, why would anyone assume I could afford a $2,000+ extraction? After explaining my financial situation, it felt like the conversation quickly became, "Well, okay then, goodbye." No one took the time to explain more affordable options or discuss a basic extraction as a last resort. For a practice that claims to work with patients, I felt pushed aside the moment I couldn't agree to the more expensive treatment plans. I understand that dental care in the U.S. is expensive, but this office felt more focused on sales than patient care. Between the inconsistent pricing, lack of privacy, aggressive upselling, and dismissive attitude toward financial concerns, my overall experience was disappointing. The one bright spot was Kayla at the front desk, who was friendly, helpful, and professional throughout my visits. There are plenty of excellent dentists in the area. Based on my experience, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

    This review is years in the making. I don't typically write negative reviews, especially for small…read morebusinesses, because I understand one experience may not reflect the majority. But in this case, I feel it's important to share. I came to this office years ago after moving to Cerritos, right before my wedding, simply looking for a new dentist and a routine cleaning. They had great reviews, which is why I trusted them. From the start, I was told I had extensive issues--multiple cavities needed to be redone and several crowns were recommended. This was surprising to me, as I've consistently gone to the dentist and had never been told I needed such drastic work. Still, I trusted their assessment. The procedures that followed were some of the most painful dental experiences I've ever had. They took hours, felt extremely aggressive, and left me in severe pain afterward--far beyond what I've ever experienced with dental work. I have a high pain tolerance, and this felt very wrong. What was most frustrating was what happened next. I returned multiple times explaining that I couldn't sleep, eat, or function due to the pain. Each time, my concerns were dismissed and attributed to things like not flossing (umm I couldn't floss because of the extreme pain), which didn't make sense given the level of pain I was in. After pushing back repeatedly--especially with my wedding just days away--I insisted something was seriously wrong and requested further evaluation. It turned out I needed three root canals as a result of their prior work. Separately, the crowns that were placed caused ongoing issues. Eating anything with texture would cause gum pain, and I noticed unusual gaps that trapped food. When I brought this up, I was told the only solution was to redo the crowns at additional cost. My crowns also came off. Later, I happened to see a different dentist at the same office (a female provider who may have been temporary), and she immediately noted that the crowns had been placed at an awkward angle. She corrected them, and since then, I've had no pain and no further issues such as crowns falling off. I ultimately switched dentists and have not needed any major dental work since--just routine cleanings every six months, with no recurring problems. Based on what I went through--particularly the aggressive treatment, the outcome, and the dismissal of my concerns--I feel it's important for others to have full context before making a decision.

    When hubby had to change his dental group, we picked Dr. Lim Dental…read more First, the good stuff: 1. Easy to make an appointment 2. Nice front desk 3. Both dentists are also nice 4. Cozy and home-like office Now the not-good stuff: 1. Initial appointment with exam and x-rays was time-consuming as it included unnecessary, extra exams (neither hubby nor I ever experienced). We aren't sure, but it seemed like exams for cosmetic upgrades and maybe(?) a way to bill hubby's insurance for additional exams. I waited for hubby to come out almost 2 hours later and we both felt pressured about his experience. 2. Hubby received a basic dental cleaning but it only lasted about 7-8 minutes. At previous dentists, it always lasted at least 25 minutes. There was no fluoride paste or even polishing. We know that some offices don't do the fluoride, but no polishing, post cleaning flossing, nor manual pick work seemed rather odd. Hubby said that the cleaning was no more effective than his daily flossing. 3. WORST: We received letter packets from his dental insurance every other week for about 2 months. They were appeal letters stating attempts to bill hubby's insurance for a premium cleaning (worth about $800), rather than the basic cleaning that he actually received (worth about $75, which insurance covered). So we don't want to make assumptions, but when you received a $75 fully-covered cleaning but see paperwork that the insurance received a $800 claim, it is an unnerving feeling. This was also a hassle because hubby had to call his insurance each time to let them know what actually happened. We both work, but even though I have more flexibility, I wasn't able to make calls on his behalf because the appeals were under his name and account.
