Hillview Dental Group

This has got to be the best Dental office ever!!! Elle’s greeted me warmly as soon as I walked in. She was the right mix of professional and friendly. Once I was done with paperwork, Caesar took my X-​rays. His instructions were clear and I have to admit the discomfort was minimal. Dr. Odden did the examination and what struck me was his genuine concern for my teeth. I’m used to most dentists scaring you into unnecessary treatment … but none of that here. I was supposed to come back for cleaning but they were able to accommodate me and I had a cleaning right then and there. Check out with Reanatta (a sweetheart) was quick and easy. I was booked for my next cleaning and was out the door without the usual sales pressures. What a great experience overall. Can’t wait to tell everyone about this place. Looking for a dentist in the Fremont area … Look no more. This is the place to go to!

What else can I say if you have to go back and redo treatment at least 5 times this year. Can’t they just make it right so my husband doesn’t need to come back every 5 weeks? It is not like he can take sick time like others who are not self employed.
I would NOT recommend this place to anyone

Hillview Dental Group has been the family dentist for almost 18 years for my husband, 2 daughters and myself. Dr. Odden and Dr. Thomas are AWESOME! Renata and the rest of the staff are warm and excellent.

Terrible, and I mean horrible office personnel.
Dr. Oden is pleasant, but the front desk make errors, and give you a bad time, and try to act like they know more about dentistry than the doctor.

I was referred by my coworker to this place. Not the most aesthetic looking or high tech place, but this place is clean. No biggie since genuine service and expertise is what I look for!
I had Dr. Oden, a very friendly and accommodating dentist! Makes sure that my questions are answered and very gentle with my teeth!
Rennatta (office admin/​receptionist) is the most amazing staff person ever! She makes sure everything goes through thoroughly, fits you into the schedule that’s best to your needs, and very informative with patient education. She’s very straightforward when it comes to the cost and billing, and will not proceed with a procedure that’s outside your insurance and makes sure to get your consent.
Big thumbs up from me!

Best Dental Office in the Bay Area! Renatta takes care of everything! She always puts our needs before the insurance companies. Dr. Odden and his staff are the best around at what they do. I am always in and out in a flash and no waiting ever! AAAA++++++
HILLVIEW DENTAL… You have a customer for life!

Renatta is amazing and really sweet. I always freak out at the dentist but she helps calm you down and explain /​patient education with you. She asks a lot of questions so she can find what’s best for you.
Jessica was the assistant that help the dentist. She was new at the time when I went but she’s excellent at her job!
Thank you

Got checked up and a cleaning which I was informed that I had three cavities. I did not choose to fix the cavities and when I cam back 6 months later for cleaning and a checkup I was told that I had NO cavities.
As I was scheduling my next appointment the receptionist inquired how I went from 3 to 0 cavities and asked the dentist, who then took my back to the examination room. After a very quick look he then told me I had 1 cavity.
I went to another dentist and I have NO cavities. How do you go from 3 cavities to 0 cavities in 6 months and from 0 cavities to 1 cavity in 10 minutes!!! Obviously they are trying to get money from me, regardless of my dental health.

Be sure to choose a dentist that cares about your dental health not just doing the work quickly to make as much money as possible. I had alot of work done here over about four years and I had several procedures re-​done because of their carelessness.
I had a terrible experience with a cleaning during which the dentist (not hygenist) was knocking the metal utensils against my teeth in her rush to finish. When I asked her to be careful she was knocking my teeth she tried to end the cleaning and I had to insist that someone finish the cleaning! I’m sorry I don’t remember her name but she is a caucasian dentist with brown hair. Renatta (the receptionist) apologized and gave me some sort of medicinal mouthwash as a gift.
My usual dentist was Dr. Odden who is nice but since several fillings and a crown had to be re-​done obviously isn’t a capable dentist. I do not recommend this dental office. Do some research and find a professional dentist who is gental and thorough and cares about your dental health.

This place is really easy to miss as you drive by Grimmer along where Tri City used to be. From the outside, it looks like any of the other dental offices along the row, and it’s not super glammed up, but the office is the best dental office I’ve been to.
Renatta out front handles everything in the office, and how smoothly things run really does depend on the manager. She’ll squeeze you in at the end of the day for emergencies, and she’s very on top of everything from billing to scheduling.
They also have digital x-​rays, which is much more efficient and less painful. It’s very clean inside, and the dentists are all very professional. They give you glasses to wear to shield your eyes during cleaning/​tooth work, and you can also get some ibuprofen on your way out, so as to counter the pain before the local anesthetic wears off.
Don’t be fooled by the ordinary exterior. I’ve been to so many horrible dental offices in the past, and Hillview has definitely exceeded all my expectations.
