I was referred to Ethos Advanced Dental Care by friends and former coworkers after moving to the…read morearea, and I couldn't be more grateful. My hometown dentist had set the bar high, but Ethos has truly exceeded all of my expectations and set a new standard of excellence. When I first started my search, I visited another dentist who quoted me nearly $8,000 for a root canal--even after insurance (Delta Dental). I was in pain, overwhelmed, and desperate for the right care. From the moment I called Ethos, I knew I was in good hands. The receptionists are some of the kindest, most attentive people I've ever met--they listen with care, are incredibly organized, and made sure I was seen right away. At my first appointment, Paige (the hygienist) was wonderful--gentle, thorough, and genuinely kind. The office itself is spotless, modern, and so comfortable. Each room has a TV with headphones, clean cozy blankets, and little touches that make you feel at ease. Dr. Vargas has been an absolute light throughout my entire experience. He is not only highly intelligent and skilled, but also approachable and compassionate. He explained every step of my care plan clearly, always put my best interest first, and made sure I felt heard and comfortable. I needed a couple of root canals (my first ever), and while I was nervous, the process was painless, quick, and seamless. Their referral for an endodontist was also excellent. Back at Ethos, Carlos did an amazing job crafting my temporary crown--it was carefully sculpted, perfectly color-matched, and surprisingly comfortable. My permanent crown was also a perfect fit, and when I needed a minor adjustment afterward, Dr. Vargas immediately got me in and personally followed up to make sure everything felt right. The fact that he even called me after appointments to check in says everything about the level of care here. More recently, I had another cleaning and started their whitening program. The team took into account my teeth sensitivity and took the time to explain the process thoroughly and made sure my whitening trays were precise and comfortable. At that visit I also saw Dr. Sewell, who was so fun, energetic, and personable--he has a fantastic sense of humor and made the whole experience enjoyable. From start to finish, Ethos has gone above and beyond in every aspect of care. Whether you see Dr. Vargas or Dr. Sewell, you will be treated with kindness, expertise, and genuine care. I can't recommend Ethos Advanced Dental Care enough--it's truly the best dental experience I've ever had.

I hadn't been to the dentist in about 5 years due to being uninsured, and also #life. The staff was…read morevery friendly when I called to make my first appointment. Once there, my hygienist was so thorough, and it felt like she was not judging me and actually cared about helping me. Dr. Skidmore stopped in to check things out and there was surprisingly nothing of great concern, other than getting back to finish up my way overdue cleaning. They even helped me out on pricing as I'm still uninsured and I really appreciated the compassion with every interaction. I have referred some of my Medicare clients here and they all have had positive things to say too! Very happy to have found this practice and I highly recommend it.

A massive shoutout to Dr. Will, who helped plan and perform my Invisalign dental care plan. He is fantastic! Throughout the entire process, he was incredibly patient, sympathetic, and knowledgeable about both the procedure and the subsequent maintenance/upkeep. He never rushed me and took the time to answer every single one of my questions and concerns. If you are looking for a dentist, book an appointment ASAP! Their schedule gets full fast for a reason!

I had a filling on a tooth and pointed out during the exam visit another tooth that appeared dark and was told it was fine, come around to my 2nd annual visit the hygienist pointed the same dark tooth out and now I have another cavity that needs to be filled. Previously I had a tooth that had a deep cavity and they attempted to just fill it when in reality had to get a root canal done, and inevitably got a root canal by another dentist because the pain had become unbearable, also costing a ton of money out of pocket. I've initially had a good experience but these last two major issues have made it so I'm considering other places.

Dr. Lange took the time to carefully ensure that the crowns fit well with her existing dental work and made adjustments so everything felt comfortable. He was very gentle and patient throughout the process, which really helped put my mom at ease. His assistant, Rene, was also wonderful. He was kind, attentive, and made sure my mom felt comfortable during the visits. What we appreciated most was that both Dr. Lange and Rene took the time to educate us. They explained what they were doing, answered our questions, and discussed alternative options in case my mom continues to have sensitivity. That level of communication meant a lot. Dr. Lange is a private practice owner who clearly cares about his patients and the quality of his work. It is refreshing to see a dentist who takes the time to make sure things are done right and that patients feel comfortable throughout the process. We are very grateful for the care my mom received.

I had an incredibly frustrating and disrespectful experience with this office that ended up wasting…read moretwo full months of my time. I previously had dental work done elsewhere where a tooth was ground down too far, and I simply wanted cosmetic bonding to rebuild and even out the teeth. This office advertises bonding, so I scheduled an appointment specifically for that service. At my first appointment, I was expecting to see Dr. Josh, but I was seen by a completely different dentist. Instead of discussing bonding (the reason I scheduled the appointment), the entire visit turned into a hard sales pitch for veneers. I repeatedly made it clear that I was not interested in veneers and only wanted bonding. I was then told the dentist who actually performs bonding was not even in the office, so they scheduled another appointment, which had to be a month later due to my traveling work schedule. I came in for my second "consultation" expecting to finally meet with Dr. Josh and discuss the situation face-to-face. Instead, the dentist never came out to see me at all. The condescending receptionist had to repeatedly go to the back to speak with someone and then come back to relay messages. I was ultimately turned away and told the doctor "was not comfortable" doing the bonding with no further explanation as to why. So after two months of waiting, taking time off work, and showing up to my appointment, the doctor didn't even have the basic courtesy to come out, look at my teeth, or explain the decision in person. If they were never willing to do bonding, that should have been communicated from the beginning instead of dragging this out for two months and pushing veneers. The whole experience felt like they were far more interested in upselling expensive cosmetic procedures than actually helping me with the service they advertise. I travel frequently for work and am on a time crunch, and this situation has been incredibly stressful because I simply want my smile to look normal again after the previous dental work. The lack of communication, lack of transparency, and complete disregard for my time was extremely disappointing. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you're seeking honest cosmetic dental work.

While the long term, original owners are retiring, I was seen by one of the Dentists who will be stepping in. She was lovely, helpful, kind, communicative and went out of her way to help me with an ongoing issue I had with a chipped back molar filling. The Xray technician was lovely, conversing with me and taking care to accommodate my needs. All of the team members were very communicative as to what I would expect, once I was in the room. They have nitrous oxide (which is a plus for me because dental work always leaves me anxious). They offer blankets, water, chapstick, TV channel choices, etc... I was thoroughly impressed by this business and so happy that someone recommended them to me when I was in need. I have been to a lot of dentists over the years and this one receives my highest recommendation.

We checked in early and were taken back promptly. After my son's X-rays, we met with Dr. Kopal through a video screen, which was a new experience for us. Dr. Kopal was incredibly kind, patient, and thorough. He carefully explained the X-ray results, answered all of our questions, and walked us through every step of the procedure so we knew exactly what to expect. The staff was just as impressive. They clearly explained what our insurance would cover, what our out-of-pocket costs would be, and even offered flexible payment plan options. There were no surprises--everything was transparent and easy to understand. To our surprise and relief, the entire procedure was completed the very same day. My son and I left feeling genuinely cared for, respected, and confident that we had received the best possible treatment. I've never had such a positive experience at a dental office. Every member of the team was friendly, compassionate, professional, and made us feel like we truly mattered. I highly recommend Zak Dental in Temecula to anyone looking for outstanding dental care.

Very expensive, and when the work failed, accountability was not there…read more I had a crown placed on tooth 19 on 12/23/2025. After placement, I continued having pain and cold sensitivity, and I raised concerns before any root canal was done that the crown was not contacting or functioning correctly. Multiple adjustments were made, but the problem was not resolved. I was then told to proceed with a root canal, and after that the crown still was not functioning properly. The end result was a crown with no proper occlusal contact that was not functional for normal chewing. Dr. Im also stated in writing, "You won't need a new crown" and "We do not remake crowns (my crowns) after root canal treatment." Despite all of that, Dr. Im refused to replace the crown or issue a refund. In my experience, the office felt more sales oriented than patient outcome oriented, and I was not comfortable with how far discussions went beyond the core dental issue I came in to address. I have filed complaints with the Dental Board of California and the California Attorney General.

I called in because I suspected I had a severe tongue tie and they made me an appt to see the…read moredentist. The experience was bizarre. First of all it took wayyy too long (I was there over 2 hours) just for a consult - no cleaning or anything. It was totally disorganized - they were having me fill out a million forms on paper then the same forms on a digital screen which took so long and I had to stop to start the appt. Dr Im would have kept me even longer and acted annoyed I had to leave after 2 hours 15 minutes. Secondly, Dr Im has a strange bedside manner. She didn't really "diagnose me" - she just rambled about tongue ties and kept pulling up screenshots on her computer to show me. It was a disjointed "presentation" not a diagnosis and I was entirely unclear what did or didn't relate to me. I kept asking questions to clarify and she would answer nonsensically so I kept getting more confused. Her assistant took about a thousand high res images and a scan of my skull. With no physical examination or further follow up using an explorer tool to tap on my teeth and feel for irregularities, she then declared I had "leaky fillings" and dental decay. She didn't tell me which specific teeth were supposedly experiencing these issues. I explained I had just last month had a dental exam and x rays and was cleared with no issues. She stated that you wouldn't see the decay on X-rays, only on her amazing cameras but assured me it could be reallyyy bad underneath (wouldn't you see it on the X-rays then?). She scoffed at the idea that a dentist can diagnose teeth unless they have her expensive camera set up. I think it's suspect she didn't ask to review my recent X-rays and simply dismissed them outright. IMO it is highly unusual and not best practice for a dentist to rely only on images, even high-resolution ones, to diagnose the condition of a filling. She appeared to have a bias towards technology, and came across as overly reliant on her camera system. My spidey senses were going off like crazy. After wasting my time she ended by saying I'd need to make an appt with their myofunctional therapist for an evaluation - why wasn't I sent there first? I didn't need a dental evaluation - I was looking for a tongue tie evaluation. I called my dentist and reported what they said about my teeth and they had me come back free of charge and my dentist said "your teeth are fine. No cavities. The fillings aren't cracked. You want to keep them as long as possible and avoid messing with them when not necessary." I found another dental office that, when I called, directed me to their myofunctional therapist directly for a consult. I'm so glad I didn't end up using Dr Im for my tongue tie. As others say be very very careful if you go here... and if she says you need a gazillion new fillings get another opinion!
