Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable dentist.

I originally visited Kali Dental for a simple one-time exam because the office was conveniently…read moreclose to my home. I had no plans of switching dentists -- but that first visit completely changed my mind. The entire team was incredibly welcoming, gentle, and genuinely caring. They took the time to explain everything clearly, made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in, and delivered a level of service that honestly exceeded every expectation. Because of how well they treated me, I ended up bringing my whole family -- and we're now loyal, full-time patients for all our dental treatments. Every visit has been consistently exceptional. The office is clean, modern, and efficient, and everyone from the front desk to the hygienists and doctors truly goes above and beyond. We've been extremely happy with the care we've received, and I confidently recommend Kali Dental to friends, neighbors, and anyone looking for trustworthy, high-quality dental care in Huntington Beach. Kali Dental made a one-time visit turn into a lifelong relationship -- and we're grateful for them!

Sadly I will be not continuing my treatment plan as the office staff did not feel professional and I have had to call 3x and send an email to get any further clarification on the status. The billing and charges were not clear. I only got excuses and defensiveness from the office manager as to why I was not contacted or received clear information. The only answer I was given was pay in full if I want earlier treatment. (Even though the delays were on the office staffs side due to poor communication). If your insurance pays then you'll get reimbursed. Hopefully they will continue to work on process improvement regarding patient care and satisfaction with future patients. This was very disappointing as I did really like the dentist and the dental assistant.

I came in as a new patient to establish a new dentist after having moved and last saw a dentist a…read moreyear ago. I was glad to have been able to make an appointment within the week and didn't have to wait in the waiting room long. The dental hygienist got to taking x-rays right away and did a good job about not pinching my gums or cheeks too much during the process, which I know sometimes is a struggle. When Dr. Chris came in, there wasn't any niceties exchanged, barely an introduction. It felt very short, abrupt, straight to the point, and not conversational. I've always liked going to the dentist and felt comfortable at the dentist, but I can imagine for someone who doesn't like the dentist that this interaction would not have put them at ease or made to feel welcomed. I was told I had cavities and they were able to take care of them right away. Convenient for me not to have to come back another time, so that was great! What really threw me off was that during the process, Dr. Chris just announced out loud, "Time for a break!" And dropped everything and left the room with the hygienist. I was so confused and baffled. How could they take a break in the middle of filling my cavity?? I was stressing because I wasn't sure if he hurt himself and needed to go take care of it, if he went on a lunch break, or if something else was going on. I was left in the dark, figuratively. It felt like awhile before another hygienist came in looking for supplies when she asked if I was doing okay. I said I was fine and asked if everyone else was okay. She said that Dr. Chris needed to tend to an emergency with another patient momentarily. I felt a little better after knowing that. When he came back, I thought he would at least address his absence with something like, "I'm sorry for the interruption. I had to attend to an emergency." Or a, "Thank you for waiting." But instead, I got, "Okay let's keep going." As a healthcare professional myself, I understand the importance of transparency and helping manage expectation to help put patients at ease. A simple, "I will be back in a few minutes. I need to go help another patient" wouldn't have left me stressed out about what was happening and when/if he was coming back. We ended up getting interrupted again but this time I heard the other hygienist say, "I'm so sorry but I need you again." Dr. Chris said, "I'll be right there." And he left the dental saliva ejector mouthpiece in my mouth when he stepped out. I think he thought he'd be back right away so he didn't take it out but it ended up staying in my mouth so long I was so dried out and uncomfortable. I was tempted to remove it myself and honestly probably should have, but I kept thinking he'd be back any moment. Finally, he came back, again with no apology for stepping out. He finished up quickly and I was out. My mouth and tongue were still numb so it wasn't until the next day where I felt the grooves of the filling and I wanted it smoothed out. I called the office and they were able to get me in that same day. I was taken care of by hygienist Lynne and she was fabulous!! She was approachable, conversational, answered my questions, and checked up on how I was doing often. She helped me smooth out the rough edges of the filling so that it felt more seamless. She thanked me for coming in and told me to request her the next time I was in. I'm giving this dental office a 4/5 because of the timeliness of the appointments, the attentive hygienists, the cleanliness, and the good final product of my fillings. My major critique is just the bedside manner from Dr. Chris and the process of getting my filling. I'm hopeful and willing to give it the benefit of the doubt that it was just one bad fluke of a day. It wasn't bad enough for me to be turned away. I guess I'll see again at my 6 month appointment.

I was advised by Dr. Baloy that she would help and needed to speak to a prosthodonist for consultation on my jaw measurements - She told me to call the emergency line if I still had pain. I called and left a voicemail on sunday and no follow up from the office staff or the doctor. I followed up again and was told they would ask the doctor for a status and get back to me (it had been almost a week). No response again, so I called the following week and was told Dr. Baloy would be out until the end of June (how did no one tell me this previously). I said I was still in pain and they would ask another Dr to take over. Still no call back, their office is closed again today. There seems to be no urgency with a patient in pain. I like the Dr and her ideas for my teeth and jaw but I really would like some better follow up, communication and compassion from their office staff. Hopefully I hear back soon.

Before my appointment was over, she had Dr. Khan examine me to see whether braces or Invisalign would be a better option for me.

This is a very modern dental office, fully equipped with the latest techniques and technology, which gave me confidence that I was receiving the best and most up-to-date care. Dr. Trisha performed my examination, and I really appreciated her approach. She gave me practical, realistic advice about my coffee-drinking habits, without judgment (you know that feeling) or pushing unnecessary procedures. What stood out to me is that she didn't try to sell me on things I didn't ask for, such as braces, but instead focused on my actual priorities--specifically, my chipped teeth and receding gums. That kind of patient-centered care is rare and refreshing. Another major plus I discovered is that Dr. Trisha has specialized training and experience working with individuals with special needs. This is a huge benefit to our community, because there are only a couple of dentists in the area who are truly experienced in this area. I know because I work with children with intellectual/developmental disabilities. Overall, my experience here has been wonderful, and I fully intend to bring my other family members for their dental care as well. As a side note, it's important to understand that you really do get what you pay for. A modern facility, innovative techniques, advanced technology, and a staff who clearly enjoy their work are not cheap. Dental-Cal/Medi-Cal reimbursement rates are very low, so it makes sense that they don't accept those insurances. Nevertheless, if you are seeking a dentist who can actually solve your dental problems with up-to-date, compassionate, and high-quality care, this is the right place.
