Real Patients, Real Stories
This dental practice & its staff are elite.Receptionist, dental assistant & dentist were all very friendly and pleasant. Dentist has great chair side manners.I showed up on my appointment time, was greeted promptly, was seen within minutes, and Dr. Aghdam explained the state of my teeth & told me what she was doing every step of my deep cleaning, which I appreciated. I didn’t feel rushed at all, nor did I feel like the visit took too long, and this was the most pleasant (as can be, it is a dental cleaning after all) deep cleaning I’ve had. Plus, teeth look fantastic after cleaning.Dr. Aghdam has very nimble hands, which I appreciated. She was quick and thorough; I appreciated her explaining what she was doing every step of the way & how thorough she was - I saw her referring back to my xray photos to see if she had gotten everything she needed.Facility is clean, business is very easy to find, and parking lot has ample spots so you can park easily without having to struggle for parking.I just moved to the area but this will be my dental office / dentist going forward and I highly recommend this practice.
Dr Ranjbar took over my dentists practice when he retired. I am a nervous patient and was very apprehensive. I must say, she has done great.Since going to her. She has re glued a crown and have had 2 cleanings.Most importantly, there are some teeth that need some work. I went in today to get that done. There was an issue with the current crown that the tooth may not survive the removal. After a bit of discussion, we decided to wait since there wasn’t pain or an emergency.I know it may need to be gone in the future but wasn’t prepared to lose a tooth that wasn’t bothering me. She saw the problem, did t try to pressure me, and assured me we’d deal with it when the time came.As a nervous patient, she went a long way to earn my trust. If you are looking for a good, trustworthy dentist, I’d give her a try.
Great staff, very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend for cleaning and whitening your teeth.
Had an appointment here recently to after 2 years of not going to the dentist. Joel got to work immediately and had x-rays done and did some measurements for my gums. He went over my x-rays and told me exactly what needed to be done. Dr. Maral went over my treatment plan and I felt comfortable with her. My teeth and gums are in bad shape but I have hope that they can save my teeth! The office was nice and clean and the staff were all so friendly. This will be my go to from now on!
Went to Dr Maral and had an excellent experience! Joel did my cleaning and my teeth felt amazing after and everyone was extremely friendly. Would definitely recommend
I’ve been coming here for over 10 years. Dr Maral Ranjbar’s office is a wonderful and honest establishment. I am super pleased with the work they do and customer service and care they have for each person. Joel always works on my teeth and he is a super chill guy and does a great job cleaning every time. Highly recommend this place to anyone!
Today’s teeth cleaning was done by Joel the hygienist. And I have to say, it was such a great experience. Being away for such a while it was such a pleasant experience to have someone really be kind and patient and just a great person. Please give Joel a shot! Will be coming in September for my next teeth cleaning!
I've been a patient of Dr. Maral's before, but after I lost my dental insurance, I stopped coming because I assumed I wouldn't be able to afford treatment. Like so many people, I figured I'd have to wait until I had insurance again. Eventually, I decided to call the office just to see what my options were, and I'm so glad I did because I couldn't have been more wrong.From the moment I spoke with the team, they were incredibly understanding and never made me feel embarrassed about not having insurance. They walked me through the costs, explained everything clearly, and let me know they offer payment plans, which made a huge difference for me. Being able to split the cost into manageable payments took away so much of the stress. Instead of putting my dental health on hold again, I was finally able to get the care I needed without feeling overwhelmed financially.When I came in, everyone remembered me and welcomed me back like family. The office is just as beautiful, modern, and spotless as I remembered. It's one of the cleanest dental offices I've ever been to, and the atmosphere is relaxing instead of intimidating.Dr. Maral is truly one of the most compassionate dentists I've ever met. She never makes you feel judged, no matter how long it's been since your last visit. She took the time to examine everything carefully, explained my treatment in a way I could understand, and answered every question I had. You can tell she genuinely cares about her patients and wants what's best for them, not just the treatment itself but making sure they're comfortable with the entire process.The assistants were just as amazing. They were kind, patient, and constantly checked to make sure I was comfortable. Everyone in the office works together so well, and you can tell they actually enjoy what they do. It makes the whole experience so much less stressful.What impressed me the most was how honest and transparent they were about pricing. There were no surprise fees, no pressure, and no sales pitch. They gave me different treatment options, explained the payment plans available, and helped me find something that fit my budget. That's something you don't see very often anymore, and it earned my trust immediately.I left feeling relieved—not just because I finally got the dental care I needed, but because I realized I didn't have to choose between taking care of my teeth and paying my bills. If you've been avoiding the dentist because you don't have insurance or you're worried about the cost, don't assume you can't afford it. Call Dr. Maral's office first. They truly care about their patients and will work with you to find a solution.I honestly can't recommend Dr. Maral and her team enough. Outstanding care, honest pricing, flexible payment plans, an incredible staff, and a dentist who truly puts her patients first. They've earned my trust, and I'll be coming back for years to come. Five stars without a doubt.
I wanted to share my experience because I know hearing the words "you need a root canal" can be terrifying. I was honestly expecting the whole process to be long, painful, and stressful, but Dr. Maral and her team completely changed my perspective.When Dr. Maral told me I needed a root canal, she referred me to an endodontic specialist she trusted. The specialist was absolutely incredible. The procedure was so much easier than I ever imagined. It was fast, virtually painless, and before I knew it, they were telling me we were finished. I spent more time worrying about it than actually sitting in the chair.Once my root canal healed, I came back to Dr. Maral to have my permanent crown placed. This is where her attention to detail really stood out. She took her time making sure everything fit perfectly. She checked my bite several times, made tiny adjustments until it felt just right, and made sure the crown blended naturally with the rest of my teeth. You honestly can't tell which tooth has the crown because it matches so perfectly.The entire process, from the referral to the final crown, was seamless. Communication between the specialist and Dr. Maral's office was excellent, and I never felt like I was being bounced around between different providers. Everything was coordinated so well that it made what could have been a stressful experience incredibly smooth.The staff was amazing every step of the way. Everyone was friendly, reassuring, and genuinely cared about how I was feeling. Every appointment started on time, the office was spotless, and I never felt rushed. They answered every question I had and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process.Now I can chew comfortably again without pain, and my tooth looks completely natural. If I didn't know which tooth had been treated, I honestly wouldn't be able to tell. That's the level of quality Dr. Maral provides.If you're nervous about needing a root canal, don't be. Trust Dr. Maral and the specialists she works with. The entire experience was far easier than I ever expected, and the final result exceeded all of my expectations. I'm incredibly grateful for the care I received and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr. Maral to anyone looking for a dentist who truly puts her patients first. Five stars all the way!
Went through a full process here — cleaning, deep cleaning, fillings, and a crown over multiple visits. Staff was great every time, office is clean, always in and out efficiently. Highly recommend.
My visit was so pleasant. It was very informative and moved at a comfortable pace. I didn’t feel rushed and was given all possible options that best fitted my needs. I would recommend.
Had a great experience here! Came in for a new patient exam, cleaning, polish, and whitening session, and everything was amazing. Priscilla was so kind, Janine was very welcoming, and Dr. Maral was very nice. Such a friendly office and I’m really happy with my visit! Coming back soon for Invisalign.
