Bright Dental Of La Mirada

DO NOT COME HERE! Honestly I hate to write this review. I love the staff the people who work here always make me feel welcome and know me by name. However I will NOT be coming back here for other reasons. I came for a problem I had grinding teeth and was made to come back 4 times in between to get my night guard (which I may add is over priced and they told me if have to replace in a few years) and every time I left empty handed. Then I was told the receptionist would finally call me to reschedule a time when the doctor would be in to fit and shape my night guard and two months later I never got the call (AFTER I HAD ALREADY PAYED) I finally called back and got my night guard and it doesn’t even fit well. Then before that I had an on lay that I had to get and same thing, at least five appointments where I came waisted three hours of my day and left with nothing done but had to reschedule. They kept ordering the wrong color and one time they even numbed me and after that decided it didn’t match and sent me home. They gave me shots for NO reason. This place is absolutely F***ing terrible. Really sucks because staff is so friendly but I’m never going back!

Totally regret coming here and spending $ 965…
Billing lady is shady and greedy. Overcharges here. Don’t go here

My daughter goes to this dentist every three months due to a disease that she has in her mouth. They are always accommodating and very friendly. My daughter has very serious issues and is very comfortable with not only the office staff that with the dentist as well. No complaints here.

They charged my credit card $ 3,800.00 with out doing any work, so I fired them and went somewhere else to have the work done… There like CROOKED CONTRACTERS.

If you aren’t trapped by your HMO, keep looking. That is, unless you like appointments that don’t start on time, receptionists that schedule you for «emergency appointments» instead of cleanings even when you are very clear, aggressive sales atmospheres, rude reception of questions, sneaky referrals and more. Because of them, we might actually be stuck with $ 600 of unnecessary fees. That is completely unacceptable. Unless you like paying out of pocket for unnecessary things, I guess. Now, I won’t get into the prolonged affair of my crown, which was put on poorly during a long visit and required yet another temporary and another crown on a subsequent visit. But, in case you’re wondering, no, the second crown’s placement is hardly better.
I really wonder how many of the positive reviews were posted in the hope of snagging the $ 50 the office offers for leaving a review?

I have been a patient at Bright Dental since 2005. The staff are friendly and efficient. I absolutely LOVE Dr. Skinner and the hygienist — Lynda.

Friendly and on time dental practice. Good with elderly patients. My 93 year old parent got teeth cleaned and was satisfied with everything.

Staff was nice but i felt that it was too sales oriented. The billing lady came to me immediately after a quick consult to «follow up» on a 40k procedure that I was never provided with informational materials to take home with.

Staff is very friendly and concerned with patient comfort. They got me in right away when I needed a crown. Prices are about average for the area. Ended up having crown and deep cleaning and all went well. Would recommend.

I am a long time patient and have always had a good experience with the entire staff at Bright Dental. They seem to do everything they can to accommodate my busy work schedule and normally get me in and out pretty quick. The Doctors and Dental Hygienist are pretty straight forward about your dental needs and are always willing to work with you on the price to keep your smile at it’s best.

I had a wonderful experience here. The staff is friendly and made me very comfortable. My appointment was at 1 and didn’t have to wait very long before I was seen. The dr was aldo very warm and put me at ease. The x-​ray tec and all the staff were always smiling and happy which means alot. Its bixe to nit dread going to the dentist.

I am utterly disgusted at the shameless tactics of this dentist office. I called for an emergency appointment because I cracked a molar and was in pain. I called and asked if they would take me as an emergency appointment and they said sure come on in.
I arrived at 4:15 and was seen at about 4:30 by a pleasant woman who took my x-​rays. Then at about 5:00 I was ushered into a room where I was seen by a Dentist I believe her name was Molsen. She asks me basic questions and then says“because you are in pain I need to numb area so I can see the extent of the damage. I say ok she leaves and never comes back! At about 6:00pm I get up to use the restroom and only then does the old chola type receptionist tells me oh I have your estimation of charges. I come back from the restroom and she tells me your cost will be $ 800plus dollars for services. So the dentist hasn’t even touched my mouth and they know it’s $ 800 dollars!!! At this time the old chola says oh we’re not doing anything today! By then I’ve lost it and demand to see that dentist that was supposed to be coming back with the numbing agents! I was told that she was busy with patients! I then not so nicely asked her why did you guys make me waste my time? I could have been looking for a dentist to help me!!! The old chola states oh we helped you, we saw you and took your ex-​rays! I could not believe what I was hearing!!! I was furious!!! They wasted my time and wanted me to come back the next day at 10:00!!! THANK GOD FOR DR. WANG AT BREEZE DENTAL AT WHITTWOOD CENTER. I called him and I arrived at his office at 6:45 and just left there at 8:45
He was truly caring doctor who saved me from a hellish night of pain and the best part he was cheaper!!!
I will be looking into how to file a formal complaint against bright dental.

Best dentist I’ve ever went to very loving and nice. Dr skinner is very communicative even though your mouth is open she tends to make the visit more comfortable. I myself don’t enjoy the dentist but I never mind coming here.

I have been going to Bright Dental of La Mirada for a couple of years now, and have had a number of complex dental procedures performed by Dr. Emma Kim, DDS and Dr. Farinoush Gaminshi, DDM. While going to the dentist can never be one of my preferred things to do, at least when going to Bright Dental, I know that I have highly trained and skilled doctors performing the procedures using the most modern state of the art equipment available. I am very pleased with the dental work that I have had done to date, and would not hesitate to recommend the staff at Bright Dental for any dental care needs.

Dr. Kim and Dr. Skinner are very nice and gentle when doing my dental cleaning. I need ‘no water no air’ style cleaning and they are able to accommodate my need.

I’ve had some really bad experiences in the past with my Dentist and I never thought I would say that I LOVE my dentist and his fabulous team! I love coming here knowing that I’m going to be well taken care of. I also love the fact that they have later times in the evening so that I don’t have to take time off of work.

Here with Sherri, she’s being seen by their staff. They’re kind, gentle, and genuine professionals.
She’s going through a pretty complex procedure and the pain management with them is exceptional.
And waiting in the lobby was minimal. They get you in ASAP

I went in for a teeth cleaning and had a great experience.
The office is cleaning and welcoming. They have the TV on for the kids showcasing movies at a reasonable volume which I also enjoyed. The front staff was welcoming and warm. Toni and Susie welcome you when you come in and make sure that you are comfortable as you wait.
The teeth cleaning went well and my mouth felt fresh and cleaning. the doctor came in to check my mouth and x-​rays. She recommended that I take care of some problem areas and that there is some work I needed to take care of which she explained and pointed out. I did not feel forced to make an appointment and did not feel pushed to schedule a follow up.

It is very nice and quiet while you wait. The dentists, especially Lynda, was very sweet, funny, and great to work with! She talked about herself and answered all my questions about my teeth and my gums. All in all, it was a good place to get my teeth done and am planning to make this my dental office!

Funny… I stumbled across the reveiws here. I happened to check out why it had low reviews. My sister came here with her 3 kids, I came here, and my mother came here. Needless to say I HATED IT. I felt I was approached by a salesman every time. I had PPO that is untouchable these days mom n sistets kids had no insurance. They overcharge and are dishonest. I ended up going to Sycamore dental in Buena Park. Staff is awsome not pricey and not out to make a fortune off u. My neighbor priced around for implants and he went to Sycamore dental too Very nice location and clean.
Bright Dental is horrible. .Unfortunately for me it was just down the street and I had to change.
