I needed a new dentist for my teen children, and we loved Shoreline. From the moment you walk in the door and Emma greets you with a Nespresso coffee, everything is top notch. They have high end technology and have thought out every detail including blankets if you are cold. The entire staff is kind, energetic, and empathetic. read more

I had a really good experience at this dental office. The staff was friendly and made me feel comfortable from the start. Elizabeth, the dental assistant, was amazing. She was kind, patient, and made sure I felt at ease the whole time. She explained everything clearly and was very gentle. Dr. Nguyen, was professional and made the visit feel smooth and reassuring. Overall, the visit was easy and painless. I would definitely recommend this office! read more

Wow, One star reviews are very telling here. I wouldn't trust a dental practice whose yelp reviews take you to a sequence of ravingly wonderful video testimonials instead of clickable stars, one through five! Glad I decided not to get any work done here after reading some of the experiences of others that weren't cherry-picked. Michael C read more

Very happy for my new found dental office and love that it's 5 minutes from my house! I'll start by saying I have a ton of dental trauma...it's not that I'm just afraid of the dentist or I don't like to go, this runs deep. It's ptsd level and no amount of logic seems to really help. My first visit to the office was a new patient exam and I was greeted with so much warmth from all the staff. The tech who did my X-rays continuously asked how I was doing and made sure I was ok. I love the amenity options from lavender essential oils, eye massagers and more! They even asked if I'd prefer having things explained or not. It felt like they're very aware of people's fears and do everything possible to mitigate them. Dr. Ritzau is amazing! She is friendly and very knowledgeable too. It's obvious why this office wins so many awards in the dental field. I came back for my first cleaning the other day and my fear was at an all time high (you would have thought I was getting major surgery). I was greeted right away by the hygienist, Madeline and she was fantastic from beginning to end. I felt like we were two girlfriends just hanging out. She was not only wonderful at cleaning my teeth with 0 pain, she was also great at distracting me. She asked me questions about myself and felt very personable. It was thankfully one of the better experiences I've ever had. The office is spacious, clean and relaxing. They have refreshments in the waiting area and are always running a contest too. They even have an awesome referral program. So happy I've found my new dental studio with such a fantastic team! read more

Dr. Winters and Dr. Nguyen are AMAZING. I saw Dr. Winters when I chipped my two front teeth. She tended to me with amazing care and gave me my new pearly whites. She was phenomenal and I've had them for a couple months now and they feel phenomenal. I just saw Dr. Nguyen for my top wisdom teeth extraction and it was painless and seamless. His expertise helped me make some important decisions on when I should have gotten my wisdom teeth out. I've been to shoreline dental for a cleaning and filling as well and their entire staff has proven to be top of the line. Their front office is phenomenal and on top of it. 5 stars for shoreline dental! read more

Wonderful dental care, modern and up to date facility. Painless cleanings! Easy to get to right off the highway and plenty of parking in their private parking lot. Love them! read more

I'm disappointed to share that my experience at Shoreline Dental felt more sales-driven than patient-centered, and I hope this helps others make an informed decision. I was a first-time patient and want to start by recognizing my hygienist, Anna. She was wonderful and clearly cares about her patients. Where things went wrong was after my cleaning. Once X-rays were reviewed, I was told I had a cavity. Rather than being given conservative options or a discussion of risks and alternatives, the dentist immediately recommended a crown, an invasive and very expensive procedure. I felt uncomfortable with how quickly that recommendation was made. I chose to get a second opinion from a close friend who is a dentist out of state. After reviewing the images, they felt a crown was not necessary at this time and that a filling was appropriate. I asked Shoreline to proceed conservatively with the filling, which they did. However, even during that appointment, I was again encouraged to plan for a crown in the near future. I was also sold a night guard for $900, with the assurance that it would "last my whole life." After going home and doing my own research, I found that night guards typically last around two years. I called to cancel the order, as I would not have agreed to it had I been given accurate information. The final concern, was a follow-up email I received stating that Shoreline Dental felt they were "not the right fit" for me due to an "uncomfortable conversation with the doctor." From my perspective, the discomfort came from me asking questions, setting financial boundaries, and advocating for conservative care. I had clearly expressed that I did not want to be sold anything unless it was absolutely necessary, yet the upselling continued. I believe patients should feel safe asking questions without fear of being dismissed as a client. Being informed and cautious should not disqualify someone from care. While I won't be returning regardless, I felt it was important to share my experience. I would encourage others to be cautious with any practice that feels more focused on high overhead, tours, and sales than on collaborative, conservative dental care. read more

The staff were warm and welcoming, and they were very communicative. From waiting in the lobby to getting discharged, everything was explained thoroughly. It's very clear that their goal is exceptional customer service and to make sure that patients feel understood and their goals of the visit are met. read more

Very happy with the care I received. Everyone was super friendly and very well organized. Extremely happy with shoreline dental studio. read more

I had a fantastic and painless experience with Dr. Saad, who completely rebuilt my smile 3 years ago. However, since then my experiences with most of the dental hygienists who clean my teeth 3 x per year have been frustrating and demoralizing. I am fanatical about brushing, flossing and using a water pik yet they treat me like a child and scold me, insisting that I am not doing it correctly and implying that I am lying. They have turned what was once a great experience with dental care into one that I dread. Bummer. read more

I had such a wonderful visit at Shoreline today! The new San Clemente location is absolutely gorgeous. It's bright, peaceful, and beautifully designed. The entire experience is always top-notch from start to finish. The team at Shoreline truly cares about their patients and goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and cared for. It's the kind of place you actually look forward to visiting, which says a lot about a dental office! I have referred most of my family to Shoreline now! My mom has had extensive dental work done and raves about her results, my husband just became a new patient this week, and even my dad and sister go here and love it. The reviews don't lie. Shoreline really is the best of the best. You'll be in great hands! read more

Lack of price transparency and relentless upselling. I first want to start off by saying that the staff is very friendly and extremely nice. The new location is very nice as well. Other than that I do not recommend this office. I am never one to take the time to write a Yelp Review but felt compelled after this last visit. I was a patient for many years up until my last visit about 5 years ago. My entire family and MANY family friends left this office due to a lack of transparency when it comes to pricing, and relentless upselling in every appointment. This is consistent with the rest of the lowly rated comments if you care to look. The only reason I went back is because my crown which was put on there needed to be replaced and was still under warranty. It was a significant price reduction under the warranty, so financially, I needed to get it replaced at Shoreline. At the beginning of the first visit, when they removed the old crown and fit me with a temporary, I confirmed my warranty and that I would not be paying the full price (which was already confirmed on the phone the week prior). They went back to check and confirmed a few minutes later. This should have been in the note for my visit to begin with, and I'm confident that the warranty would not have been honored had I not made sure of it. I signed the acknowledgment and paid the full amount at the end of this visit. I just had my appointment for my permanent crown. Again, the work itself was well done and professional. While checking out, all of a sudden, I was being charged an additional $500. When I pushed back, there was stammering and backpedaling. At the end they chalked it up to the $500 amount being "auto-populated" along with a few other half reasons that frankly made no sense at all. They started listing prices in a way to show me the mental math, as a reason for the mistake. The numbers didnt even add up either. Once again, if I had not stood up for myself I would have been out an additional $500 for absolutely nothing. I hope this helps. It's a shame because the staff is very nice but this experience is consistent with why many of us in town left years ago in the first place. read more
