    This was my 1st dentist visit since moving here from outta state. One of my customers referred. I…read morewas sad bc I love my Dallas dentist, DNA Dental. They always took great care of my chops. Very pleased to report Modern Dental picked up EXACTLY where DNA Dental left off. A very seamless dental transition. Not one but two dentists examined. Very thorough xrays. Hygienist demonstrated great attention to detail. I get the feeling this practice will take good care of my smile. I'll be back.

    This is sad. This is my 4th experience here, and I wanted to be fair before putting up a review…read more Appointment times mean nothing to them. They called me to move my appointment earlier, and I agreed to come in 30 minutes ahead of schedule. An hour before the new appointment time, I even called to ask if they were running on time because every previous appointment had already been 2 hours behind. The front desk told me, "Yes, we are on time." I arrived 15 minutes early, signed all the paperwork, and still ended up waiting until almost my original appointment time. Once I was finally brought back, the doctor cracked a joke, gave me Novocaine, said he'd be back, and disappeared. Forty minutes later, I was still sitting there numb with no doctor or staff in sight. At this point, it had been well over an hour without the doctor even starting the exam. The front desk staff should not be working in customer service. They were unhelpful, showed no remorse, and acted like this is something they constantly hear complaints about. Sadly, I doubt anything will change, but do yourself a favor and find another dentist

    This place is awesome. Especially when you want your child to go somewhere and they're afraid of…read morethe dentist both of my daughters have had traumatic experiences with other dentist office. But they love this place and if your child has an issue they're willing to give them laughing gas to keep them calm while they're working on their teeth. My oldest daughter had her weapon teeth pulled. My oldest daughter had her breaker done. My younger daughter is getting dental work done today. She loves his face. If you have children. I'll tell you that this is the place to go. They love and cater to your child. To the point that your child wants to come here when her appointment come up. They also have an adult office that are just as good.

It was my first time meeting Dr. Arce, he was as gentle as possible and explained my procedure and options , which help put me at ease. Kaniya and Ara were very friendly, warm and attentive. You are in good hands at this office! October 1st Today , I had an initial exam and consultation. I'm always nervous about going to the dentist and did not know what to expect. Manfredo was very professional, warm and gentle when completing my X-rays. Dr. Paralles' presence further put me at ease , he has a very calming demeanor. He explained my treatment plan thoroughly and was very gentle during my examination. Both periodically checked in on my comfort level throughout my entire visit. Surprisingly, I'm actually looking forward to my upcoming procedures and can't wait to update this review with a 5th star! Also, the office is very clean and beautiful!

    I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Stephen Hiroshige for his excellent care…read more Although I now live more than an hour away due to a work relocation. I chose to return to his office because of the trust I have in his expertise. Before coming back, I consulted two dentists closer to my new location. One said the procedure could not be done and recommended a root canl specialist, while the other explained that the treatment would be too complex and would require three separate visits. Dr. Stephen Hiroshige carefully evaluated my case and personally completed the root canal treatment. The entire procedure was virtually painless, and I felt completely at ease throughout. While the drive was long, it was absolutely worth it. Dr. Stephen Hiroshige is a highly skilled, professional, and trustworthy dentist, and I would confidently recommed him to anyone in need of excellent dental care.

    I just left Dr. Hiroshige and his staff and I can honestly say they are 5 stars all the way. I…read morefound him through Yelp and I knew I was in the right place when I saw all the USC paraphernalia all over the office. I knew immediately I was in good hands. Dr. Hiroshige is the dentist to go to in Gardena and the South Bay!!!!!! Parking is super convenient and he has all the latest technology. The XRay tech was super nice and made sure I was comfortable with my X Rays. They took both an XRay and a 3D photo of my bite. Luckily I had no cavities but i needed a very deep cleaning! Dr. Grace worked on my teeth for a good hour. She took her time and was plugging that tartar away from my teeth. Im so grateful for her and her expertise! After the cleaning Dr. Stephen explained my crowded teeth and the consequences if it was not fixed. I took the advice and am getting them corrected. Overall super happy I found a new dentist!
