My dentist recently retired, and as of January 2026 I learned that I have Delta Dental coverage…read more So I started from scratch and looked at every single one of the 178 dental practices near me covered by Delta Dental. Most of them were large practices and had Yelp reviews in the 2- and 3-star range. San Marcos Modern Dentistry was one of about two or three that had 4-star reviews. When I called to make an appointment, the receptionist explained the insurance procedure very clearly, letting me know what I needed to do next. She answered all my questions with patience and friendliness. My first appointment was really positive. Everyone on the staff from the ladies at the front counter to the hygienists to Dr. Aldaz were very caring, friendly, and professional. Everything was completely explained to me - what my X-rays and scan revealed, the treatment proposed, the cost, etc. I ended up having three temporary crowns placed by Dr. Aldaz at that appointment which was late on a Monday afternoon. She placed the permanent crowns at an early morning appointment on Wednesday less than 48 hours later. I have never had such quick turnarounds on crowns. These are fabricated in house, so they are much quicker than being sent to a lab. In addition to all the positive features of this practice, what impressed me greatly was the CBTC scanner. It revealed a deep cavity almost reaching to the bone that I had no idea that I had. If I had not had it taken care of at this visit, I probably would have had to have had a root canal which I certainly do not ever want. This cavity was a shock because I had just had bite wing X-rays taken and an exam by the new dentist who had taken over the practice of my retired dentist. She told me that everything was fine at that time. In my opinion, it is important to choose a dentist that performs the CBTC scans as they apparently reveal much more than the customary digital X-rays. My former dentist did not have such a scanner. They also have a periodontist on staff so if further procedures are necessary, they can be done in house. At this point, I feel that Dr. Aldaz is the best dentist for me that I could ever find. My feeling was that every person on the staff was truly committed to giving each patient the very best care possible. This is a business that serves everyone who walks through the door and who calls on the phone. It is very unusual to find this nowadays. Everyone there made me feel as if I were their most important patient. I believe you will be highly satisfied if you check them out. If you are looking for an excellent dental practice that truly wants the best for you, give them a call!

After sharing that I preferred not to have my blood pressure taken because it gives me extreme…read moreanxiety, they refused to do a simple check up and cleaning. They said they cared about my overall health and needed to take it because it was their policy to protect their doctors and care for me. I don't need them to care for my blood pressure-my primary care doctor already does that. I need them to clean my teeth. Now, I won't be having my teeth cleaned for a year - until I can switch to different insurance and find a dentist who actually treats me with respect and dignity due to any human. I left the office crying - feeling uncared for, discarded, broken and less than.

They also send a confirmation text/e-mail a month before and the two days before so you really can't forget. Dr. Schmidt and Theresa, the hygienist, went above and beyond to make my kid feel comfortable.. and even made him enjoy his visit, which as a mom is everything. It's such a relief to find a dental team that genuinely cares. Highly recommend them for any family looking for a kind, stress-free experience.

Through getting an adult Invisaline retainer they referred me to another dentist (who was also great but then retired later) who then referred me to Dr. Thylin's practice. I haven't ever had a cavity while coming here religiously (every 6 mos) for the past 4 years. We are planning to move to the Murrieta are in the future and I would still drive here each time due to the experience l get here.

Not knowing where to start made it difficult to choose an implant dental office and dentist from…read moreall the possibilities in San Diego County. My 4th consultation was with Dr. Christopher Henninger at North County Cosmetic and Implant finished that search. His team took the necessary X-rays, which determined that I was a candidate for implants. After our conversation Dr Henninger understood what I wanted to accomplish. It is simple to say that I wanted a beautiful smile but along with that smile comes the ability to eat healthy, chew food properly, feel good about myself, improve my attitude, improve social confidence, and something I've wanted to do for a long time but my smile and dental condition prevented me from doing. That is to publish my own music. At 79 years old I wanted to be very careful selecting the proper dental team that would make me feel comfortable now and the rest of my life, so I did my "Due Diligence" and made the decision with no regrets. My procedures consisted of the following; My upper full denture was replaced with a full arch bridge of new Zirconium/Ceramic supported by implants. My lower procedure required extractions replaced by a full arch bridge of new Zirconium/Ceramic supported by implants. These procedures were all done in-office using IV anesthesia or Nitrous Oxide administered by Dr. Henninger. He made sure that I was comfortable, relaxed, and without pain. Ali, team leader and one of the many ladies of the team, informed me that they have financial advice and assistance within the office, which I took advantage of. Other members of the team include Claire, Mari, 2 Haleys, Bella, Jasmine, Bethany, Ashlee, and Katy. They are all part of the practice of "Complete Health Dentistry", which focuses on the "Oral-Systemic-Connection", the relationship between your mouth and the rest of your body. I am a strong believer in this practice. As for the office itself, it is gorgeous in appearance and 3D state-of-the-art in depth beyond my explanation. Dr. Christopher Henninger and team have a warm, friendly, and comfortable environment to fulfill your dental care needs. I have been self-conscious of my mediocre smile ever since an unfortunate childhood accident broke and chipped my front teeth and over the years the problem became worse. Thanks, Dr. Henninger, for your unique ability to listen and understand your patient's rationale for implants and genuine interest in total mental and physical outcome. Thank you for the beautiful smile. I'm looking forward to publishing my first Christian song, after all, I now have a Christian smile. Jim S PS: Amen

About seven hours later, I received a text asking if I could come in at 8:30 AM for the repair. I went in and was out in less than 20 minutes with my smile fully restored. It's that kind of dedication to patients, combined with genuine skill, that will hopefully keep this office as my dentist of choice for many years to come. The staff are all friendly and professional, and Dr. Wernick himself is just a genuinely good person. Thank you, Doc, for rearranging your schedule and taking care of my situation so quickly. It's appreciated more than I can say.
