After previous dentist dropped my insurance I found Dr Rivera who practices at Gentle Dental in Vista on Melrose Ave. The care from Dr Rivera and all the staff was more than wonderful. Dr. Rivera first did a complete exam and explained in detail all the issues I had and I had a lot! I liked her care and gentle nature but because I was told I had many problems I was fortunate that I have a family member who is an experienced hygienist and works for a large insurance dental provider to handle appeals. . I asked for my X-rays ... read more

Gentle Dental Vista has been key to getting my smile back! After years of not making oral health a priority, and an inherit fear of the dentist, I was nervous to take that first step. From the first deep cleaning, I could tell that the team truly has your best interest at heart. They take time to explain everything and are very kind in each interaction. Recently I've had several fillings taken care of and Dr. Ramirez and Liz were amazing. It's never fun to be numb for several hours but I never felt any pain while they were... read more

Gental Dental Vista is the Best! Dr. Rivera and her staff of Lovely Ladies are so talented and comforting! Dr. Rivera saved my smile, she crowned all my front teeth that had hairline fractures. She shaped them with her drill to look exactly like my originals ( without the gap I had in the front ) she is an artist! I am so Grateful to have found this office! The prices are fantastic also, I paid almost a third of the cost for a porcelain on ceramic crown, than I did last year at Emerald Dental ( who didn't address 11 cavities... read more

This dental office gave me the best dental experience I've ever had. Scheduling was a little challenging. I think they're probably corporate, because the gent I spoke to on the phone I never saw in the 4 times I've been there. He told me someone would make sure to verify my insurance was in network with their office, but that didn't happen before my appointment. When I walked in, the ladies at the front desk immediately called my insurance to verify and got me squared away within a few minutes! The exam was fine - routine... read more

I started coming to Gentle Dental a few months ago. They have put me on a cleaning program every 3 months. I really like Christina who is very thorough with the cleaning. Dr. Rivera has also been great with doing fillings & bonding for many teeth that needed the repair. When I chipped my tooth & called for an appointment, they got me in the same day to fix my tooth. The girls up front are very helpful & explain what is covered & what is not. I would recommend Gentle Dental to family & friends. Keep up the great work!
