Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures, offering durability and a natural appearance. Implants stimulate jawbone growth, preventing bone loss and preserving facial structure. Fremont Star Dental uses advanced 3D imaging for precise placement, ensuring long-term success and patient comfort.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. The system corrects crowding, spacing, and bite issues without metal brackets or wires. Patients benefit from comfort, convenience, and predictable results through digital treatment planning. Fremont Star Dental offers personalized Invisalign solutions for teens and adults, combining expertise with cutting-edge technology for optimal outcomes.
Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively correct complex alignment issues using brackets and wires. Fremont Star Dental provides customized treatment plans for patients of all ages, focusing on comfort and efficiency. The practice combines experience with digital X-rays and 3D imaging to ensure precise adjustments and lasting results for improved oral health and confidence.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry services include porcelain veneers, crowns, bridges, and professional teeth whitening. These treatments address discoloration, chips, gaps, and misshapen teeth to create radiant, natural-looking smiles. Fremont Star Dental emphasizes artistic precision and patient-specific solutions, enhancing both aesthetics and oral function for long-term satisfaction.
Preventive Services
Preventive care includes exams, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and sealants to maintain optimal oral health. Regular checkups help detect issues early, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease. Fremont Star Dental educates patients on hygiene practices and offers personalized plans to protect teeth and gums for lifelong wellness.

I took my time and consideration into writing this review. My teeth were perfectly fine and I only went to here to get usual check up(cleaning etc). I had my clean and needed 3 filling which came at cost of $220(copay). One the of filling started hurting and still hurts now. I told dentist and she said I need to see root canal specialist. I went and paid $45 and she found nothing. Dentist did refilling and pain is still there.
She told me I need to see to see the specialist again. I told her i did and she found nothing. She said "just tell to do root canal anyway". I said okay and didn't go back. I contacted old friend who is studying to be DDS and he said me to look for another dentist. I went this place because of high ratings on Google. And I wish I had checked yelp review instead. There's people who had similar experiences as I did(CHECK YELP BEFORE GOING HERE). Going into doctors is already scary and when they don't give you clear answer, it's even worst.

My family and I have been going to Dr. Uma for over 2 years. She is a very humble and great dentist and has a wonderful staff. We were looking braces for my 13 yr son and we came to know that she is very experienced, so we visited and finally we got what we were looking. Last 2 years we are visiting to her clinic for any dental related work without second thought. Last but not least the staff is wonderful, very helpful. This was my best experience ever, I would definitely recommend to others.

Dr. Patel and her entire staff is very professional and helpful. My husband and I have been going to her for the last couple of years and she is amazing. She always takes time to explain the procedures, answers all our questions and never tries to rush through patients. As someone who has always been scared of doctors, Dr. Patel and everyone in her practice made me feel comfortable and safe. She is very capable and her team is very well trained.
Special shout out to Charleen for always making my experience a good one! I have had to see Dr. Patel multiple times during this last year for Invisalign treatment but even during Covid times, I have always felt safe here. I would highly recommend her.

Dr. Uma Patel is the best dentist ever! My wife and I started seeing Dr. Patel about 2 years now and we are glad to be part of Dr. Patel's dental family. We were recommended by one of our family friends who is with Dr. Patel since last 10 years. She is patient-centric and builds long lasting relationship. She is very persistent, listens to her patients, extremely knowledgeable and performs dental procedures with an excellency.
My wife recently had her two implants done and both went very smoothly. Before the surgery we met with her and she thoroughly explained us what the procedure is and what to expect after its completed. She has tremendous amount of experience which puts you at ease. She takes really good care of her patients and is truly exceptional in every way. Nevertheless her staff is very accommodating and friendly. She and her team are amazing and we will continue to go there and would highly recommend Dr. Uma Patel to anyone.
