Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth in function and appearance. Our board-certified specialist performs surgical placements using advanced imaging technology for precise positioning. These titanium-root replacements integrate with jawbone tissue to support crowns, bridges, or dentures while preventing bone loss.
Sedation Dentistry
We offer multiple sedation options including oral sedation, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation for patient comfort during procedures. This enables complex treatments to be completed with minimal discomfort while maintaining safety through continuous monitoring by our trained specialists.
Preventative Dentistry
Our preventive program combines professional cleanings with patient education to maintain optimal oral health. Regular exams, digital X-rays, and specialized cleaning techniques help detect and prevent dental diseases before they progress to more serious conditions.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer comprehensive smile transformations using veneers, whitening, and restorative treatments. Our approach combines aesthetic improvements with functional dental health considerations to create natural-looking, long-lasting results that boost patient confidence.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Our surgical extractions address impacted or problematic wisdom teeth using minimally invasive techniques. We employ local anesthesia and sedation options to ensure patient comfort while preventing future dental complications through timely interventions.

I got a molar implant in November of 2017 from Dr. Epstein. At the time, I found the office to be a bit odd, but the implant was good. A month ago, my implant started wobbling. I got an emergency visit right away with my regular dentist as Epstein is closed on Fridays. My Dentist said that the post was fine, the tooth was loose. I wanted to have Dr. Epstein fix it, and my Dentist did too. I called a couple of times the following week and finally got an appointment for the following week 7 -8 days later. Dr. Epstein was clearly very irritated with me as they had suggested to me to have my Dentist fix the implant he did.

He was rough with me, and when the tooth went back on after screwing the post back down, he proceeded to grind the tooth down. I'm thinking to myself, what the heck is he grinding my tooth for? Before I left, he made sure to tell me that my bite was because of the lack of orthandonic work, that I chewed like a cow, which caused the screw to loosen. Great manners Dr E.! I got a sore throat from the tooth dust. On top of all that, they charged me $461.00 for maybe 30 minutes. I will not go back there again. Beware!

I have been a patient since 2001. I never liked going to the dentist until I met Dr. Epstein. He always makes sure to go above and beyond for making his patients comfortable. It is important to me that he has state of the art technology and he always spends time educating me! It sure says a lot that my whole family as well as extended family are all patients of his. I highly recommend his office - clean, friendly and passionate about what they do.

Been going to Dr. Epstein for at least 10 years and he has turned my oral health around as well as cosmetic work with Invisaligns. Everyone in the office is so nice and pleasant. Recommend him to anyone.

Some of my husband's coworkers recommended Dr. Epstein so we took their advice, and went to Dr. Epstein for routine cleanings. Dr. Epstein immediately began up-selling us on his "preventative care".he advised we needed treatment on teeth that looked like they were beginning to form cavities. We trust our medical providers, so we said we would do everything he so highly recommended. We scheduled these future appointments, and got an estimate of costs; approx. $8,000.

We immediately asked if everything would be covered by insurance, we were told YES. We had a LOT of work done, received a bill and received a bill for approx. $7000. We were confused! We asked how this could possibly happen and we were told "some of it was covered, but we are not in your network". We ended up moving to the Sacramento region and our new dentist told us ALL of the seemingly necessary preventative care, as advised by Dr. Epstein, was bogus and he was just trying to make more money!
