Orange County’s $12 million funding brings dentists to school
With tooth decay being the most prevalent recurrent disease leading to a yearly loss of 51 million school hours, young school children can just walk to another classroom in their school for a dental check-up and teeth cleaning rather than traveling outside their campus. The grant provided by the California Department of Health Care Services will expand teledentistry services in the next few years and cut down visits to dental office by children who have a risk for cavities and can’t access such care.

- Meeting Dr. Pierce just by itself is a great experience. He has a strong presence and you can tell right away that he is someone you can trust by his body language, tone of voice, choice of words and calm demeanor. - This was my first visit but it felt like meeting an old friend that you haven't seen for a long time. - He started the conversation by sitting next to me while we were looking at my xray and explained to me the current situation. He used very little technical jargon and gave me several options to choose from, I've already done my research myself and he knew that, so some information i have missed he supplemented that with what he knew and even detailed the advantage and disadvantage of each one of them. - He understood what my concerns were, He actually listens and was able to understand what my issues are even if I couldn't articulate them, I've already been to two dentists before this. Both just gave me a list of operations, a few exchange of greetings, circled what I have to pay and left. - He also also opted to do the "least" amount of procedures needed to be done, only doing what was really essential to address those issues that needs immediate attention. Here's to compare what I need to pay with other dentist after insurance coverage: 1st dentist: Dr.X ($4000+) 2nd dentist: Dr.X ($1700+) 3rd dentist: Dr. Pierce ($300+) - Yes, they may have some differences in opinion but one cannot help but think that it can also mean differences in values especially during these times. - I understand that professionals also need to make money to cover their expenses but doing unnecessary procedures also harms the integrity of the patients health and financial health. - Ginnie and Maria (front desk) also reflects these good values as well and are very accommodative. Overall it was a great experience, the 20min drive was well worth it. - I've met a lot of people in my life as a teacher before . I can easily say that Dr. Pierce is one out of a thousand. They're literally a dying breed. After meeting him, my partner and I took a short walk outside the business complex and reflected upon it to redefine our criteria of what a "good person" is and how we can become one. - I honestly think the world needs more people like him. - Oh btw did I mention that he looks like Nicholas Hoult from the movie Tolkien?

Dra Mate Moreno is a highly qualified professional. She runs an impeccable clinic with friendly staff and updated equipment. I had some implats done at her clinic in Tijuana 4 years ago, and every dentist in the San Francisco Bay Area that looked at my mouth complimented her work. Like me if you go to her clinic, you will be proud to say that you had dental implants done in México. Thank you.

I have been a patient of Dr. Askari + team for the past 5 years and highly recommend her practice. Dr. Askari is friendly and it always a pleasure speaking with her. She always provides detailed information, explanations, and cost breakdown prior to doing any procedure. The rest of the team is just as amazing, always smiling and happy to see you. I was hesitant about going to the dentist during the COVID pandemic, however Dr. Askari made me feel completely comfortable and safe (hand sanitizer at front desk, sanitized pens, temperature checks, plexiglass barrier, open door for fresh air etc). If you are weary of the dentist, please be sure to check this practice out, you will not be disappointed!

Dr. Newman was incredibly kind and compassionate. Dr. Newman and her assistant were very reassuring and talked me through the entire root canal. She made a stereotypically scary procedure very easy. The APEX office was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and exhibited the utmost professionalism. I cannot recommend Dr. Newman highly enough.

From the moment you walk in your greeted by an amazing staff that I energetic and excited to help. They are highly educated to help with any questions you have on insurance coverage, or the specifics of certain surgery's. Coming to this dentist office set the bar so high, with the service Dr.Askari provides there is no way I'll ever go anywhere else.

Dr. Askari is the BEST! Honest, professional, and precise. My family has been going there for 6 years. Every other dentist I went to before told me I needed fillings, crowns; even possibly a root canal. Immediately! Dr. Askari said, continue to floss/clean and you will be fine. Six years later, and not one filling. Unfortunately, this past year my mother passed away, we moved into a house, and we had a child. Good & bad stress. Hence, my teeth were neglected. This past month, I did have to have fillings and one crown (which I knew were my fault). I was nervous, since I hadn't had any work done. And, my previous dentists either left me in pain for days or the bill was excruciating that I was hindered financially. Neither happened! Dr. Askari did everything in 2 days, with the help of her amazing staff, and I was pain free! Also, our bill was large (not a surprise) but reasonable compared to others I had spoken to about what I had done. I feel like I am selling this place but I hope that's not what you perceive. My experience (over the years) have been so positive and I know how hard it is to find a GOOD dentist. I hope my feedback will help. I couldn't recommend Dental Care of Ventura enough. Good luck!

Saw Dr. Newman for an emergency root canal. I got seen right away and it didnt hurt. I hope i never need another root canal but if i do i will go back to her. She was really nice and explained things well.

Very disappointed with this office. They over charged me and my insurance. I have called them numerous times and the receptionist keeps saying the office manager will call me back but has not called me yet. It's been months now. Be careful with what they charge you, check with your insurance!
Sara Pacheco
Dr. Newman is really friendly and kind. I don't want to call a root canal wonderful, but it was really no big deal. I had no pain afterward and could chew on the tooth the very next day. Would totally recommend her. The office is super nice as well, totally brand new.

I saw Dr Newman at her new office, Advanced Perio Endo experts. It was super nice, and she was so friendly. I was in a ton of pain and she saw me immediately. She talked me through everything and made me feel really comfortable. My dentist couldnt get me numb but she got me numb without any problem. I woke up the next day and felt a million times better! I would totally go back to see her for another root canal if I ever need one.

I had an overall nice experience, as far as dentist office visits go. The staff is courteous, kind, and they made sure that I felt safe during this COVID19 pandemic. I was happy with all of the work I had done because it was done right the first time. I have a million dollar smile! I highly recommend this office to anyone who needs dental work done.
Jerome Rabago
Love this place! So friendly and they make everything about visiting the dentist easy!

It has been close to three years since I have been down there for dental work. Just a note to hope that you and your staff are in good health and that things are going fine for you and your dental Patrice. You and your staff take care and enjoy all things. It was a pleasure to meet you and your staff.
