David P Brock, DMD MS

Just went there after a horrible experience at another office and 3 years (because I was skeptical).
But the office was clean and well taken care of.
The staff along with the Dr. Himself was very friendly and amazing because they were all welcoming and just made you feel like they were genuinely glad that you chose their office.
I had to bring my youngest (almost one year old daughter) and Dr. Brock’s wife (Rebecca) took care of her the complete hr I was in their and even had her sleeping!!! She also have her a teething banana toothbrush was just the cherry on top!
Obviously, I didn’t expect this and told them before my appointment if my daughter is too much, I will gladly leave and reschedule. Very apologetic but they were having none of it — they were soooooo sweet!
The cleaning went beautifully and took their time! I believe her name was Lauren — she was super sweet and thorough! She answered my concerns and just took her time!
I will definitely refer everyone I know to them!!!
Thank you!

Here is I have a great story to tell. I was looking for a new dentist and went to a doctor in Santa Cruz. She found four (!) caries in my teeth. I was shocked. I don’t have a dental insurance and was facing a thousand dollar bill, minimum. Since I work in Monterey, I decided to deal with my caries there and went to Dr. Brock’s office. Much to my astonishment, he found nothing wrong with my teeth! I was stunned. He explained that some coffee/​tea discoloration might, in fact, look like caries and some inexperienced doctors wouldn’t make a difference. I couldn’t believe my ears. Besides saving me a lot of money, Dr. Brock saved my healthy teeth! I had no idea that the second opinion matters so much at times. Plus, apparently it’s crucial to have a super experienced and educated dentist. Thank you!

Not the place for dental pain caused by this guy. Never returns call. Moving on and for the better.

They did exactly what I needed and billed my insurance correctly.

Dr Brock is awesome! His dental hygienists super friendly. I was having a tough time keeping my mouth open when he was drilling and I had a splitting head ache he stopped and got me Advil for my head ache and never got upset with the many times I had to take a break. I also appreciate the multiple text reminders they send out before an appointment. Extremely professional. I would highly recommend him!!!

I just recently had the Zoom teeth whiting procedure and love the results. Great doctor and staff. I highly recommend this practice.

dental factory. gets you in and out. no concern for quality or patient aftercare. not the place if you need a individual care or need complicated dental work. get em in and out and get the bucks is the motto here. thumbs down

Went to Dr. Brock’s Monterey office for several years — by far the best dental experience I’ve had to this date. Rebecca at the front desk was always organized and friendly. The dental hygienists that give you cleanings are professional and do a great job. I always got the feeling here like the staff was being honest with me, but at the same time being sensitive to my fear of people poking around in my mouth. They had no problem billing both my insurances and working out a payment plan for the remaining balance. I recommend checking them out.

Dr. Brock is one of the most honest dentists I have ever met in life. His staff and his wonderful hygienist, Lauren, are the best! 100% trust his work and his staff, extremely competent and honest. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me. Thanks to Dr. Brock and his staff for a wonderful experience for the past few years. By the way, my entire family goes to his office!

I had put off going to the dentist for over 5 years due to terrible dental experiences with rough, unprofessional dentists, and my teeth were in horrible shape as a result of my lack of dental care. I was in desperate need of a dental checkup and a friend recommended me to Dr. Brock. I went on Unilocal,read his reviews, checked out his website and decided to make the call to set up an appointment! Now, as a new patient of Dr. Brock’s, I can say that I have never felt so comfortable being at the dentist as it was something that I absolutely dreaded before. His front office staff, hygienists, and dental assistant, along with Dr. Brock himself are WONDERFUL! His hygeniest Lauren was very sweet and kind. She was so thorough with my teeth cleaning and explained how important it was to floss my teeth every night. I knew I need a lot of work done on my teeth and was a bit embarrassed about it but when Dr. Brock came to look at my X-​Rays he never once made me feel bad about my poor dental care and immediately began setting up a treatment plan. He is truly the nicest dentist I have ever been to! I was completely impressed about how calm and relaxed I felt throughout the entire appointment. They were able to set up my next appointment for fillings for a week and a half later and today I had those fillings done on two big cavities. Dr. Brock had prescribed me Valiums to take before the appointment because of how anxious I get before dental procedures which made me relaxed the whole time, and I even dozed off for a bit. He used plenty of anesthetic so I couldn’t feel a thing. I could not believe how pain free the procedure was. They even took a little break in between fillings so I could take a breather. It was a two hour appointment that felt like one. Once again, Dr. Brock and his entire staff make up an AMAZING dental office and I would highly recommend him to anyone who has had a miserable dental experiences in the past. They will definitely turn your fears around!

My first appointment they had me waiting 10 minutes to get in. Not a big deal. Most Dr. places make you wait. Second appointment. I called to let them know I had been caught up at work, and that I was going to be 10 minutes late. I missed a meeting for this appointment and was already on the road for 20 minutes. I had 10 minutes left to get there, but wanted to at least give them a courtesy call. They told me I would have to reschedule my appointment, that they wouldn’t be able to leave by 5. This makes no sense, as my first appointment I didn’t leave until 5:10 when they finished my cleaning. Thank you for making me miss a meeting, drive 20 miles one way, make me wait 10 minutes for my first appointment, and then cancel my appointment. I will never go here again nor would I recommend a place that is such a hypocrite and doesn’t care about it’s customers! I would give it zero stars if I could.

I would give Dr. Brock and his staff 10 stars if I could! He is a wonderful dentist, his dental staff and front desk desk and friendly and professional. I have a VERY low tolerance for pain and for added fun, my teeth are highly sensitive to cold. I have always been accommodated and never made to feel I am high maintenance (as another unnamed Monterey dentist did). I have a spiffy new crown and it was attached with minimal pain and fuss. And it looks great!
Highly highly recommended!

I highly recommend Dr. Brock! Not only is he a great dentist, but his front desk staff and hygienists are so wonderful, I’d probably keep coming back just because of them!
Dr. Brock took me, a new patient, on short notice to take care of an emergency root canal. Upon finding out that I had no insurance, he kindly did as much work «in-​house» as he could to avoid sending me to a costly specialist. I felt they did their best to ease the pain, or at least be comforting and communicative throughout the procedure. The Dr. and his assistant told me what to expect, and what to do after the procedure. I believe they took their time and did quality work, unlike previous doctors I’ve seen (the reason for this root canal was due to a recently placed filling that fell out).
The ladies at the front desk know me by name although I’ve only been in a few times, and I’ve witnessed how they greet other patients – like old friends they haven’t seen in a while. They really are genuine and kind and help ease any tension you might feel when heading to the dentist. I was only more thrilled when I found out Dr. Brock is educated through the Harvard School of Dental Medicine! What more could you ask for?

If you are looking for a dentist in Monterey, I would highly recommend Dr.Brock. I had been procrastinating about going to the dentist for a long time partly due to bad experiences and painful memories! I don’t feel scared about going to the dentist now. The treatment I had was seriously pain free. All the staff there are fantastic, genuinely friendly and helpful.

I live in Los Angeles and was visiting my daughter in Monterey. During my visit I had an unexpected problem with a procedure I had done on my teeth prior to my visit. My daughter called her dentist, Dr. Brock and explained the problem and his office made a space available for me immediately. Already having a fear of dentists, I was really nervous going in regardless of how wonderful my daughter and son in law told me Dr. Brock was. The second I walked into the office, i was greeted by his wife
who works with Dr.Brock. I immediately felt a sense of relief from her sincere warm welcoming. Once I met Dr. Brock and he looked at the problem, from what was suppose to be a «temporary fix» till I returned home, became a far more thorough repair. He not only took the time to fix the problem, he ended up doing a better job on the procedure than my regular dentist! He was warm, friendly and, most importantly, expert at what his profession is all about. I told him I might have to drive 5 hours to start coming to see him! I highly recommend him!!!

I really feel like I can trust Dr. Brock. He doesn’t try to do unecessary procedures. I went to this other Dr. first and the dental hygienist who cleaned my teeth said when I meet the Dr., I should be prepared for her to tell me I have some cavities!!! She was already setting the stage so I’m not «surprised.» So I didn’t go back there ever again. Instead, I went to Dr. Brock. Over the past couple of years, I haven’t had any cavities.
