    First day getting aligners, i was so excited to hopefully see improvement here :(

    I deeply regret pursuing orthodontic treatment with The Tooth Co., and I am writing this review in hopes of helping others avoid the same financial and emotional stress I've experienced. I was recommended a treatment using their off-brand Invisalign system called Spark. I trusted Dr. Perrin's opinion and signed a payment plan based on his confidence that this treatment would resolve my misalignment. After many months of following all instructions exactly, and wearing my aligners full-time, my trays continued to stop fitting properly week after week or two. I had to return for multiple emergency appointments and rescan visits, which repeatedly interrupted my work schedule, yet the aligners still failed to fit. Despite all the time invested, there was no visible improvement in my teeth. After seeking a second opinion from a licensed orthodontist, I was informed that my misalignment was never suited for clear aligner therapy in the first place, and that only braces will achieve the results I originally came here for. It is extremely upsetting to now learn that thousands of dollars and (more importantly) months of effort were spent on a treatment that I may have never an appropriate candidate for. The office itself is clean and the staff is relatively friendly, but the handling of this situation has been extremely disappointing. When I respectfully asked to discuss a partial refund or any form of resolution, I was told by Vivian that despite the failed results, they do not provide refunds under any circumstances, and that because I signed a contract, I MUST continue to pay for a treatment that did not work. As someone who only wanted to improve their smile, I've been left with the exact same dental issues I started with -- but now with a $3,000+ debt for a service that was sadly ineffective for my case. I wish there had been more transparency from the beginning to prevent this outcome. I do not leave negative reviews lightly. I'm sharing this only so that others don't end up in the same position- stuck paying for treatment they cannot use, and left searching for real orthodontic care afterward. Please, if you are considering aligners for complex misalignment, go to an orthodontist who specializes in tooth movement rather than a cosmetic dentist offering orthodontics. I fully hope this office will reach out and make things right, but until then, this is my honest experience.

    A dental office never looked so good! I am so excited to be here and it's the dentist!!!

    I am blown away! This office is not just pretty. They take such impeccable care in how they treat you and explain things. Dr Perrin provided a thorough examination and showed me pictures of my teeth and he was SUPER GENTLE!! I am kind of a chicken so this was a big deal for me. The office is very modern and clean. They gave me a tour also. I would highly recommend Dr Perrin and his staff!

    Entrance

    The Tooth Co. is the most first class dental experience you can get in SoCal. When you enter, you feel like you're at the Four Seasons or Montage Laguna -- LUX!! Jasmin helped me schedule my appointment and offered water / coffee upon my morning arrival. She was so kind, friendly and personable at the early hour of 7am! Jeremiah then took me back and gave me a tour of the immaculate space. He was a superstar and made the prep process seamless and easy. The scanner used to capture my teeth was state of the art along with all the equipment and tech in the office. Dr. Perrin came in and was communicative, clear, so beyond friendly and thorough on the ins and outs of my corrective Invisalign journey. The same attention to detail to the office space was given to my personal Invisalign plan and the steps that will ensue for the next few months. Dr. Perrin's rates were also better than many other quotes from dentists I received. Parking in the structure is a breeze as well -- always important! I'm so excited to enhance my smile with Dr. Perrin and his incredible team. Will be coming for cleanings / whitening and all other general dentistry needs as well!

    AFTER. Beautiful, natural, personalized to my mouth. The perfected version of my original smile that I always had hoped for.

    After going through a terrible experience getting veneers done at another dental surgery in OC that specialized in cosmetic surgery, I decided the only thing left to do was begin the search to find a new dentist that could provide natural looking veneer revisions for me, which was my initial vision. I came across Dr. Perrins work on Instagram, where he had highlighted other veneer revisions he had done. The results were beautiful. From fake, overly white, blocky, "chicolata veneers", (which is what I had unfortunately ended up with) to stunning, natural looking veneers. So I decided to go with him. From the very beginning of contacting his office, to being greeted by his staff, the whole experience was such an incredible contrast to what I had previously endured. His receptionist, Almira is an absolute darling, so warm, personable and fun, an absolute delight to organize everything with. I fell in love with her. Dr. Perrin's hygienist, Jasmin, is equally as amazing. Gentle, sweet and compassionate, and I felt so comfortable with her the whole time. And then there's Dr. Perrin himself. He intently listened to my every need, concern and paid close attention to what I was wanting and the vision I initially had for my teeth. What I loved about this whole process was the communication from both him and his staff. From calling me to check up on me after the first long appointment to remove the first set of veneers, to communicating with me in detail about the shape, colour and size of my new ones. Even down to the details of slight translucency in the new veneers. All things that were very vague and dismissed in my first experience of veneer placement at the prior dentist. Dr. Perrin completely set my heart at peace. I am someone who is such a baby in the dental chair, and yet, I found myself so relaxed as he is incredibly kind, gentle and understanding. Not to mention, thorough. When he found that the previous veneers were placed roughly and incorrectly, having flared up my gums, he took special time and attention to correct the issue and sent me home with care instructions to help heal it. I will say as well, Dr Perrin's composite veneers were equally amazing, I would have been happy to settle with those alone. Just a few days ago, I had the placement of my final veneers and I cannot tell you how happy and relieved I am with the end results. Dr. Perrin nailed the vision I initially had, of a natural looking, beautiful smile. Every time I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I burst into tears. This time in joy. The previous veneers had made me cry with sadness every time I saw myself. The previous colour was so bright white (the before photo doesn't depict how unnaturally colored they were) that it was extremely contrasting to my natural bottom teeth so it felt and looked as though I had dentures in. Now, not only do my new teeth look beautiful, they are perfectly matched to my lower teeth and it just looks like the natural smile I always had hoped for. My only regret is that I did not find Dr. Perrin in the first place and I would have saved myself time, drama, money and even the health of my gums. I cannot recommend him enough, from the detail to attention, to the warm and kind manner of his staff, his beautiful office, to the personalized production of my new veneers, I would have to say, his is the best dental surgery I have ever been to. This experience has healed me of all my past dental trauma. If you're on the fence about finding the right doctor for your teeth, take this as your sign to look no further. Thankyou Dr. Perrin for giving me my smile back. I am so beyond grateful to you and your wonderful team.

Overall, Dr…read more Kevin Su and RDH Shyla have been professional and trustworthy, which is why we kept coming back. However, our recent experiences have been very concerning since a new dentist, Tara Norouzi, joined. First, both my wife and I specifically scheduled appointments with Dr. Su, but without prior notice, our exams were handled by Dr. Norouzi instead. We were not informed or given a choice, which felt inappropriate. Second, my wife had a troubling experience last year. After learning she had prior Invisalign treatment, Dr. Norouzi strongly insisted that her teeth were in very poor condition and recommended crowns, dismissing her request for conservative treatment. She was told that without crowns, her entire dentition could deteriorate. Concerned, she sought a second opinion overseas at a top dental hospital, where doctors determined it was a minor issue treatable with medication. The problem resolved quickly at minimal cost. More recently, I experienced something similar. I went in for sensitivity in a molar that had previously been filled. Despite explaining clearly that the tooth was sensitive to temperature and pressure, I felt my input was not fully understood. Based on testing, Dr. Norouzi concluded that the tooth nerve was "dead" and recommended extraction and a crown, which seemed inconsistent with my symptoms. When I asked about more conservative options like a filling, those were dismissed, and I felt pressured toward more aggressive treatment. The communication was tense and not patient-centered. After these experiences, I've decided to cancel my future appointments. I strongly recommend patients seek a second opinion before proceeding with major dental work.

I've been going back and forth between veneers, gum contouring or both and Dr. Scott Rice was able to explain pros and cons to both options without being pushy. My teeth and mouth were perfectly fine and healthy. I've had braces twice in my life, so they were already straight and aligned as well. Many of the other dentists I had gone to were trying to sell me on a full set of veneers, but I wanted to keep my natural smile/teeth but just achieve a more improved look with less gum when I smiled and an even gum line. That's exactly what I got and I'm so happy I found him because I decided to switch over to them as my regular dentist now. Their service, professionalism and expertise is so worth it! The fresh baked cookies don't hurt either Lol! It smells amazing in there everytime! The thing is there are many well trained, knowledgeable doctors out there who can give you what you want, but the ethics and moral character are hard to find. He was more focused on what I wanted, what made me happy than achieving the perfect smile (unless that's what I wanted of course). Your smile is an investment and at the end of the day you're the one paying. You want to be sure it's the look you want and are happy with it and also find a dentist who can provide their expertise, knowledge and opinion without feeling like their trying to sell you on the most expensive procedures. He kept my well-being at the forefront and I can't ask for anything more. He made me feel safe and heard and that's what won me over. Dr. Scott Rice actually cares and listened. I trust him with my care. He's a rare gem! During the procedure, I was involved every step of the way. Asking for my opinion, telling me what they were doing, asking if I was okay. Answered all of my questions. Healing was pretty fast, no complications. I had gum contour and composite veneers done. If it's not already obvious, I highly recommend coming to Rice dentistry for all your dental needs. I'm beyond happy with them and will continue to come back and recommend them to anyone asking. The staff are amazing as well, the whole team are very thorough and provide A+ customer service and treatment.

I recently came back for a check up and cleaning and I have to admit I got the best cleaning from Cindy. She started with asking me about any concerns I had and I mentioned enamel erosion.

So of course cleaning was really rushed. I went to my old dentist a month after and they said it looked like my teeth were not cleaned or polished since they last saw me. I sent the X rays/imaging from the visit to a dentist friend and they said it was a very extreme solution for something that can be managed with personal routine changes. They are entitled to their opinion and how they operate as a business nothing against them. This is a heads up if you decide to go in.
