Does poor oral health impact brain function?

I am so very grateful to Dr. Amy and the staff at All Natural Dentistry for the wonderful feeling of having all my teeth again! My situation required surgery and a pair of implants. Dr. Amy performed all that was needed in a thorough, professional & kind way. The staff was completely helpful and friendly and also helped me deal with the logistical complications around traveling a distance to do the work. So grateful for everything Dr. Amy did to make it possible for me to have a full set of teeth again!

I have been to Pierce Aesthetics several times and they really care about their patients. I just had a dental implant done with Dr. Pierce using the Yomi technology- really amazing. The implant was quick, painless, and literally the quickest recovery. The entire staff, Dr Pierce, Joe, Ginnie, and Maria are welcoming and really make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. I am so happy to have found this practice and highly recommend any one seeking routine care and especially implants. They are fair and the level of service is the best. Thank you!

Dr. Amy is an amazing dentist! She really listens and is so knowledgeable and professional. I am forever grateful for her expertise! My bite was off from a filling from another dentist and she carefully fixed my bite so it won't hurt to chew on that side any more. Thank you Dr. Amy!

I hit the jackpot! Dr . Amy figured out a long term bite problem that no other dentist could. And she corrected My painful grind during our first visit. She didn’t even charge me. She solved my main concern and I will follow up with her for an implant next month. Luckily she also saw that my root canal a year ago was still infected and poorly done. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my smile or wallet. Dr Amy is SMART, FUN, and puts her patients first. She is now the ONLY dentist for my family and I.

Finding a dentist who we can trust is major; after all, this is our smile, our face to the world.  I'm now past 65+ - My teeth seemed perfectly fine until they started spacing in my mouth - I've always had a great smile and a healthy mouth, I thought! No swollen gums - no bleeding - what could be the problem? Even though I had cleanings once or twice a year, I discovered after visiting my dentist in Portland Or, I had great bone loss, which was the reason for my shifting teeth.  This dentist gave me sad, scary, shocking and super expensive news. After some research I found that Dentist can charge what ever they want - so in some ways they're like mechanics. If you find a good one, who is honest - go with her, and tell your friends. I'd heard about going to Mexico, for many reasons, so I began my search. I found a lot of dental shops that sounded like they were herding cattle. This is I did not want.  I prefer personal care. I found Dr. Amy Khajavi in San Diego -  Dr Amy is amazing, gentle and explains everything on the first visit, as you're looking at an Xray of the inside of your head from every angle. Her equipment is the latest state of the art Xray machines. The office is super clean and her staff is attentive and caring.

I needed a lot of dental care including implants - as Dr Amy pointed our, this is a process.  First surgery, bone loss repair, implants, months of healing time, then the final fitting of my new smile. The entire surgery, bone repair and implants were done in one visit. What I want to brag about this, I didn't even know it was happening..and NO PAIN. In fact there has been NO PAIN, for me, this entire process.  Also, a great price, at least one we could swallow without choking. What I love is the Metal Free Ceramic Implants and NO METAL or infection left in my mouth.  MY mouth feels fabulous. The process is involved and Dr Amy and her excellent staff are there if we have questions. I am now less than 6 weeks away from getting my new smile complete.  Dr Amy did make a temporary so I could at least have some kind of teeth in my mouth.  I'm soo excited to post a photo here when I'm complete. In the mean time - choosing Dr Amy is choosing a dentist who has great expertise, a dentist who stays educated not only in the dental industry but also internal medicine. Also, a dentist who is sensitive to our individual needs as we move though this.  I really appreciate her compassionate nature. Having a calm confidence that we've made the right choice and we are in perfect care is a big deal going forward with any procedure.  Personally I feel blessed to have found this Dentist and her staff.

Words cannot say how happy and grateful I am to Dr Amy! She is by far the most caring and loving medical expert that I have ever experienced in my entire life. Her work is everything for her. Much love and warm blessings to Dr Amy and her great staff they are the best!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

E.S

I can’t thank Dr. Khajavi and her team enough for helping me with a much-needed dental restoration. I had to do a complete upper and lower dental implant and after some failed procedures with other dentists, Dr Khajavi was extremely attentive and was able to an amazing job on implanting my dentals. I highly recommend Dr. Khajavi for any implants and restorations.

Monir Naderi

I want to say that I am greatly appreciative of the dental work I recently received from Dr. Amy. The implant and crown that have been placed are so comfortable! Dr. Amy took great care to fit the crown so both chewing and flossing are perfect, the new tooth never nags for my attention. And, I don’t take that for granted, having heard some people’s horror stories. Also, I am grateful for Dr. Amys skill and expertise in the ongoing work on the opposite side of my mouth, where a sinus lift is underway in preparation for another implant. Dr. Amy has taken care of the complications of that process with the same thoroughness & attention to detail. I have had minimal discomfort, and have great confidence in the eventual positive outcome.

Daniel Earl

I was so happy with everyone. They explain everything to me they took their time i didn't not feel rushed. My daughter felt comfortable with the dentist . Looking forward to see the results in my daughter treatment.

Diana M

Dr Pierce is always so kind and patient, listening to your questions, never rushed. They also have all of the latest technology making your x-rays a lot more comfortable. Thank you, Dr Pierce!

Diana M

I had a crown that needed some work. The crown fell over the weekend, I called Monday morning and they got me in by 2pm, Dr. Peirce and team fixed the crown, got my "smile" back, did not charge for the work. It is an amazing, friendly, and honest office. I highly recommend it ! Thank you team Pierce !

Fred T

Dr. Amy is a kind and compassionate dentist. If you are looking for someone who is empathetic and cares deeply about her patients, then look no further. Each time I visit All Natural Dentistry she makes me feel like I am her only patient. My implant needs are extensive so I am truly grateful so have found someone with her attributes and expertise. . Esther her inner office engineer is wonderful too she is always eager to speak with you on the phone and greets you with a warm smile when you enter the All Natural Dentistry location.

April Bellino

It was a long wait for an appointment but it was worth the wait. The scheduling was great and on point. Everyone there was very friendly, helpful, and professional. This will be a permanent place for me.

Lily Fox

Best personal dental experience of my life - state-of-the-art facility and staff with Dr. Iggy in the lead.

Bridget Harris

Best dentist I’ve ever had. The front desk is friendly and efficient. Dental exams and advice are straightforward and practical. There’s a good general atmosphere among the dentists and assistants and they accommodate any requests or questions I have. And there’s parking!

Alan Riggs

Phenomenal detail work, the staff was amazing, the atmosphere was perfect and everything was explained very thoroughly!

Elizabeth Torres

Dr. Rahmani and his entire team are truly fantastic and took great care of me and under an expedited timeframe. Truly white-glove service in all respects and far and away from the best dental experience I’ve had in New York.

Miranda Butler

Envy Smile Dental Spa is family to me. They care about you. They are not just a Dentist company but they are one big family with Excellent customer service. I would recommend Envy Smile Dental Spa to everyone. They save my life and my mouth. My son loves going there. Thank you Envy Smile Dental Spa for all that you do.

Walter Davis

So very Happy with my new teeth. Dr. Pierce and his entire staff are fantastic. My wife enjoys my smile again! Thank You so much.

William Smith

The best place to start is always the beginning. My experience with Dr. Amy began with an internet search. I’ve always been self conscious about my smile but as a full time independent artist, cosmetic dental procedures aren’t high on the feasible list of priorities. Nevertheless this is something that I’ve wanted to correct for a long time. As I searched for solutions Dr. Amy stood out. The reviews, the recognition in her field, the experience, and she’s headquartered in San Diego, CA. I hat wasn’t to love?

And it only got better. I live in Denver, CO so I had to do my first consultation over Zoom. I’d be remiss to not mention Esther. Esther is an angel I swear. At any rate between the two of them I felt more than comfortable, eager in fact, to begin the journey with All Natural Dentistry. Then things got worse, but better, but definitely worse. During my first visit for the in person evaluation Dr K. revealed to me the seriousness of what I was actually dealing with. An abscess that threatened not only my smile and self esteem, one that could very well affect my long term health. After returning to Denver it also came to light that the independent nature of my healthcare situation would seriously complicate my ability to get the treatment that I didn’t just want... that I needed. So much so that weeks before my scheduled appointment, I called to cancel.

Dr. Amy and Esther both weren’t having it. Im paraphrasing but, “We’ll figure it out” was the sentiment. To be honest it felt more like a maternal gesture of genuine care for my health. Needless to say I was floored because sadly, in today’s world... that’s not usually how that works. So I flew out and began the process under Dr Amy’s advisement. The entire day of my procedure was like stuff I’ve only seen on television shows... all the way down to Wather and Dr. K’s husband seeing me to the hotel.. The “for the good of the patient” storyline we’ve all seen and in the back of our minds been like “if only that were the case in real life”. I’m telling you straight up, it is. To the staff, Dr Amy, Esther, everyone at All Natural Dentistry, all the words truly cannot encompass or encapsulate what it is that I have to say to you... because thank you isn’t enough. There’s so much more.... but... this journey is far from over... so for now it will have to do. My most sincere and deepest heart felt thanks to all of you. To anyone that reads this trust me when I say that the good people at All Natural Dentistry have more than just your procedure on their schedule... They have your health and well being in their hearts... and that’s really... really ... awesome to realize.

Sincerely and with love, Oren Brian Lomena

This review is not a reflection on Dr. Sooferi, but is a critique on Historic Core Dental Care's receptionist/Office Manager by the name of Ana (Anna). For the past 6 months Ana has given me the run around in regard to me moving forward with my dental procedures, which include implants. The purpose of me receiving implants and other corrective dental surgery, is in order for me to be placed on the Kidney Transplant list at UCLA Medical. I am a Dialysis patient currently. The main issue according to Ana, was that my Primary Care Doctor was writing an incorrect letter, not stating the reason for my request for implants, in order for Ana to forward the letter to my Dental insurance, so that they will approve the request and cover the cost for my dental surgery. My Doctor's office wrote and rewrote several letters over the course of 6 months. Each letter written, was not approved by Ana because she claimed the wording wasn't correct. Now I am a college graduate with a double Major in Accounting/Finance & English, with a Minor in Hospitality Management, and out of respect and decorum, I went along with her understanding; but enough was enough! I followed my instinct and contacted my Dental insurance directly, after receiving my approval letter stating that all procedures will be covered. I sent the initial three letters to Ana (from my primary care Doctor) to my Dental insurance. The receptionists (From my dental insurance) told me that they didn't understand why Ana would believe that they would not approve my coverage for my dental procedures. They told me that I could've recieved approval ages ago, if only Ana had submitted the original letters. Well, low and behold, I am approved for coverage, only to find out (after i had my Dental insurance call Ana) that there is Management changes at Historic Core Dental, and that they will not be able to move forward with my surgery (procedures). Ana could have told me this as soon as she knew that Historic Core Dental would not be able to perform my procedures. I am hurt, angered, and disappointed in the services that I have received from Historic Core Dental, by way of Ana, the Office Manger/Receptionist. I feel that either she was being racist or a Colorist towards me. If she didn't want my patronage, then she could've just said so, instead of wasting my precious time. I had a deadline in order to be placed on the Kidney Transplant list, now I have to restart my procedures from the beginning. A year of testing, and other procedures down the drain. My insurance milked for every dollar, and a waste of valuable time, All because of Ana's incompetence, and misunderstanding of the English language. I pray that Dr. Sooferi's change of Management includes Ana being fired! Esta revisión no es una reflexión sobre el Dr. Sooferi, sino una crítica sobre la recepcionista / gerente de oficina de Historic Core Dental Care con el nombre de Ana (Anna). Durante los últimos 6 meses, Ana me ha dado vueltas en lo que respecta a seguir adelante con mis procedimientos dentales, que incluyen implantes. El propósito de recibir implantes y otras cirugías dentales correctivas es que me coloquen en la lista de trasplantes de riñón de UCLA Medical. Actualmente soy paciente de diálisis. El problema principal según Ana, fue que mi Médico de Atención Primaria estaba escribiendo una carta incorrecta, sin indicar el motivo de mi solicitud de implantes, para que Ana reenvíe la carta a mi seguro Dental, para que aprueben la solicitud y cubrir el costo de mi cirugía dental. El consultorio de mi médico escribió y reescribió varias cartas en el transcurso de 6 meses. Cada carta escrita no fue aprobada por Ana porque afirmó que la redacción no era correcta. Ahora soy un graduado universitario con una doble especialización en Contabilidad / Finanzas e Inglés, con una especialización en Gestión Hotelera, y por respeto y decoro, seguí su comprensión; ¡pero ya fue suficiente! Seguí mi instinto y me comuniqué con mi seguro dental directamente, después de recibir mi carta de aprobación indicando que todos los procedimientos estarán cubiertos. Envié las tres cartas iniciales a Ana (de mi médico de atención primaria) a mi seguro dental. Los recepcionistas (de mi seguro dental) me dijeron que no entendían por qué Ana creería que no aprobarían mi cobertura para mis procedimientos dentales. Me dijeron que podría haber recibido la aprobación hace mucho tiempo, si tan solo Ana hubiera enviado las cartas originales. Bueno, bajo y he aquí, me aprobaron para la cobertura, solo para descubrir (después de que mi seguro dental llamara a Ana) que hay cambios en la administración en Historic Core Dental y que no podrán seguir adelante con mi cirugía ( procedimientos). Ana podría haberme dicho esto tan pronto como supo que Historic Core Dental no podría realizar mis procedimientos. Estoy herido, enojado y decepcionado por los servicios que he recibido de Historic Core Dental, a través de Ana, la recepcionista / gerente de la oficina. Siento que ella estaba siendo racista o colorista conmigo. Si ella no quería mi patrocinio, entonces podría haberlo dicho, en lugar de perder mi precioso tiempo. Tenía una fecha límite para ser incluido en la lista de Trasplante de Riñón, ahora tengo que reiniciar mis procedimientos desde el principio. Un año de pruebas y otros procedimientos por el desagüe. Mi seguro ordeñó cada dólar, y una pérdida de tiempo valioso, todo debido a la incompetencia de Ana y al malentendido del idioma inglés. ¡Rezo para que el cambio de dirección del Dr. Sooferi incluya el despido de Ana!

I’ve been to this dental office for twice now and they’ve been by far the best dental experience I’ve ever had - both in terms of the equipments and the people! They provide affordable charges and are good at communicating it. I have recommended it to my friends!!

Icy Zhang

Dr. Amy and staff were wonderful to work with. Trustworthy and went above and beyond for my implant experience. Highly recommend!

Paramy Sisuphan

Outstanding dental service, excellent quality dental procedures and most experienced with implants and dental surgeries! Dr Pierce and his staff provided myself with the highest quality dental work. State of the art facility, easy parking convenient located right next to 5 fwy. Usually i do not review businesses but dr Pierce dental office is a one of the kind boutique dental office! There is no waiting time on appointments! The front office Maria has a very accommodating schedule. Unexpected fully functional business during the entire pandemic which is unusual for Orange County. I highly recommend dr Pierce for his quality dental work work for all ages and busy families!

After much research and consultations with several dentists on ceramic zirconia vs titanium implants, I concluded that ceramic implants would be just as strong, and a healthier biocompatible choice than titanium. At that point it was a matter of finding the best dentist to do the work. I found Dr. Khajavi on the Ceraroot website, and sent her my X-Rays. Once I spoke with her, I was blown away by how much time she gave me to explain my issues, and eased the concerns I had. Not only is she an extremely warm and compassionate doctor, it was evident that she possessed the extraordinary expertise and skill required to restore my smile to the best outcome I could ever possibly hope for! I flew to San Diego, and had my consultation with her, using her state-of-the-art 3-D imagery and equipment.

Mine was a difficult case of upper mouth severe bone loss, failed crowns, failed root canals, gum recession, and infections. One area of infection had almost penetrated my sinus cavity. We scheduled my surgery a week later at her surgery suite in Rosarito Mexico, where she performs work on more difficult cases with her team of local professionals there. Having the work done in Mexico for these more extensive surgeries also allows Dr. Khajavi to charge much less than what it would cost to have that same work done in the U.S.

Dr. Khajavi tries to make it affordable for her patients as much as possible so that they do not have to compromise on the quality of restorations that are available to them. My 6 hour surgery on Friday went exceptionally well, with Dr. Khajavi being able to give me 11 ceramic implants with bone grafting and a sinus lift. On Monday back in Dr. Khajavi’s San Diego clinic, she performed an exam and new X-Rays, and was so pleased with the rate of healing that was already evident. I will need to let the soft tissue to continue to heal before I return in a month for my temporaries, which will only be used for aesthetic purposes, and not chewing. I will have to continue to blend my food for the next 4-5 months before retuning a final time to have my new porcelain crowns placed on my ceramic implants. I can’t wait to see my new smile! I want to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Khajavi from the bottom of my heart, for her outstanding work, and making my dream to have a beautiful smile and teeth once again a reality! A special thanks to Argy, for her kindness in bringing me chicken soup and meds in Mexico, and the rest of Dr. Khajavi’s staff who take such good care of their patients! I’m grateful beyond words can convey. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
