Michelle is such a wonderful hygienist! She knows a lot and she's super professional. She's really funny too. She will go out of her way to get you the help you need for your teeth. I got my first laser gum treatment and it was over in no time. The technology here is amazing. The x-rays are also super fast. I really love desert dentist. Truly recommend for anyone in the area!

RIPOFF! Totally wasted visit. They did NOT clean my teeth, but billed my insurance for cleaning. I'm from out of state & was working in CA for the summer. I made and appointment here and went in for checkup & cleaning. All they did was X-rays and the dentist looked at them. Told me I had a cavity, which later turned out NOT to be a cavity. The lady literally cleaned 2 of my teeth and told me to make another appt to get a cavity filled.

She was driving out of the parking lot when I walked out the door. Obviously, she was in a hurry to get off work and go home. I returned home to Missouri 2 months later & made an appt with my dentist to get my teeth cleaned, but my insurance wouldn't cover it, because they had already paid Desert Dentist for teeth cleaning! Also, I did NOT have any cavities! I find it hard to believe that all of the positive reviews are real. There is an epidemic these days of fake reviews for cash.

Dr. Shin was super great! I have a VERY GREAT fear of needles, he was patient with me when I cried. He even checked on me the falling day to make sure everything with my fillings worked out! I love this dentist office, the assistant I had yesterday was new to me but she did fabulous with encouraging me that I could do it. They didn't make me feel bad that I'm 25 and still act like a kid about the dentist.

I always have a great experience here. Everyone is friendly and kind. The dental hygienist is gental. They don't try to upscale you like other dentists I've been to. I will continue to go there.

Best dentist I have been too. The staff is so friendly and answer all questions and concerns you have. They also check up on you when you had a procedure done. THE BEST DENTIST IN THE HIGH DESERT!

Probably the best dental experience I've ever had. Caring and professional staff along with a skilled and knowledgeable dentist! So grateful to have found them!

Service is great they answer all your questions if any. Also staff is amazing shout-out Cynthia and Carlos!
