Testimonials

I was a little nervous about making an appointment with this dental office because of the reviews. But after I arrived & received nothing but excellent customer service & a super friendly atomsphere, I (became) relaxed. The hygienist, assistants & doctor were knowledgeable & pleasant. I knew I had a few cavities because I'm not the best when it comes to flossing ;) I would recommend this office to my family & friends, in fact I made an appt for my mom :) I've been a dental office manager for 10 years so I know when I receive quality dental care!

$240 for two fillings is not high even by Des Moines, IA standards. I should know, I'm a dentist in Iowa, and that is quite competitive for midwest, let alone the coast. Remember people: dentists cannot sit and bicker online about every claim, let alone if you are a patient, due to ethics and HIPAA.

The staff at Sun Smile Dental are super friendly and helpful. I didn't feel rushed and they actually asked questions and listened to my concerns. Dr. Shah, Ruth, and Dan are wonderful and very professional. I got some fillings, treatment, and a deep cleaning. I still have some work to finish, but they did a great job so far and I didn't feel any pain at all. They didn't push me to do any work I didn't want to get done and treated me like family.

Finally, a positive dental experience! For years my family and I had been going to another local dentist in Vista that always seemed to try and screw us over - they told my sister she needed a root canal (after a second opinion, she certainly did not) among other recommendations for countless unnecessary services...

I've been a patient of Dr. Shah DDS, for about three years now. The staff is always so inviting, knowledgeable and compassionate, which made it easier for me to come forward to Dr. Shah earlier this year with excruciating jaw pain. I was experiencing broken sleep, headaches, pain, stiffness and popping in my jaw. After an exam, Dr. Shah concluded that I was suffering from TMJ! He strongly recommended a mouth guard to wear while sleeping and during the day, to help with my symptoms and to help prevent my TMJ from becoming much worse. I admit, I was hesitant at first, but after Dr. Shah explained all the benefits of wearing the mouth guard, how could I not give it a fair try. I used my mouth guard as directed, and today I feel great! my symptoms have subsided dramatically! my quality of life is so much better, and to top it off I'm not having to pop pain meds just to get through my day. So, if any of you out there are on the fence or skeptical about using a mouth guard for your grinding or TMJ problems, just think how much worse you will be if you don't! I highly recommend it!!!
