Dentists

I consulted with Dr. Tran on June 17, 2014. A thorough exam was conducted. It was determined that I needed some amalgam fillings replaced. I received notification that my insurance would only cover two fillings. I scheduled an appointment for the replacements after Dr. Tran’s assistant assured me that the doctor could do the four needed fillings during the same appointment. It was a go. Dr. Tran’s mouth numbing technique is the absolute best I’ve ever experienced. I felt nothing during the needle insertion, not one twinge. Dr. Tran expertly and efficiently, removed, replaced, aligned, and polished four fillings in less than 1 ½ hours. This time frame included full x-rays. I am thrilled to give Dr. Tran and his staff a resounding two-thumbs up and a five-star acknowledgment! I have discovered my new dentist for life.

They didn't answer the phone during business hours and they didn't return my call like their prerecorded message said they would. Zero stars for service.

What an awesome staff. I love Dr. Endo and his hygenists. Dr. Endo is competent and patient. My wife and I really appreciate how Dr. Endo explains things so well. We feel totally comfortable with Dr. Endo and his staff!

My daughter and I LOVE Dr. Thai, Kelly, and the staff. They are friendly and do a great job. Highly recommend Dr. Thai's office.

I came to get a bi-annual teeth cleaning here and was very unsatisfied. I would not recommend this place for a teeth cleaning. I paid around $100 and my teeth were not even clean. I literally felt sticky plaque still on my back teeth. I informed the dentist of this and he made up some excuse and did not bother removing it. I had to go home and brush my teeth to remove it. Who has to do this after a teeth cleaning by a so- called professional dentist? It's no wonder this place was empty when I got there.

Super friendly and knowledgeable dentist.

Dr Doshi is awesome.

Not only do my children see her, I refer many of my patients to her. Her level of knowledge and experience enables her to intervene appropriately and her bedside manner has made my kids love her. Her staff is excellent too.

He is knowledgeable in current dental practices and will personally provide a good old fashioned teeth cleaning by hand. No scaling for me! Dr. Grasanti is funny and gentle.

Dr. Bistrain does a great job. Most thorough teeth cleaning I have ever had.

Refresh wasted my time. I'm an outdoor educator who spends a lot of time away from technology. I got back from 6 days of backpacking and showed up to my appointment the next morning. When I arrived, they let me know that they had cancelled my appointment and wouldn't see me because I hadn't responded to their email or text reminder during their office hours the previous day. If you value your time, go somewhere else, because Refresh Dental doesn't.

Knowledgeable and efficient. I had my wisdom teeth taking out by Dr Adel he took the time to explain the process and procedure. He did accommodate my needs for a different kind of meds. He's staff is friendly and swift as far as solving any paper work issues.

Best kept secret (dentist) in the Bay Area. Perhaps the world.

So this was my experience, I went to Dr. Benson office. Nice guy. He seemed a little bit different though. Staff was nice great. Next. I had a check up because I knew that I needed some work done. That was fine. I scheduled two appointment to have something like 3 or 4 teeth drilled. 3 sided filling to be exact. Cost me About $1500 dollars for everything I paid out of pocket. After my first visit I was leaving and some guy came in and complained of tooth pain Dr. Benson says no problem sit down. During my second visit things didn't go exactly according to plan and I was in the chair for a little longer then normal. No worries Dr. B finished everything and I was good to go. Two weeks later I bought a mechanical toothbrush and after using it for a week one of my teeth started hurting. I haven't been to see a dentist yet and I know it was in the area he was working, but I can't be positive if it is the same tooth he worked on. Look I know if I went back he would fix any problem he caused. I don't live in Berkeley anymore so going back really isn't an option for me. Never the less I wanted to share my experience.
