Soft Touch Dental Group

I saw Dr. Ali at Soft Touch Dental a few years ago for some veneers and crowns. I get compliments on my smile on a weekly basis everywhere I go. Beautiful and natural and truly a work of art. The reason I decided to write a review is because 3 weeks ago I broke a tooth with an old metal filling during the weekend. The doctor was available to talk to me over the weekend and told me to come in first thing Monday morning. Unfortunately the tooth had to be pulled as I had broken it into the root. He recommended me to pull the tooth and place an implant. I was very fearful of getting an implant and was sad I had to have the tooth pulled. Reggie and Cynthia assured me that I would be very comfortable. Dr Ali was able to pull the tooth and put the implant in less than 45 minutes! I couldn’t believe it. To top it off, I FELT NOTHING! I was shocked that all of this could be done all at once and I didn’t have to come back. He is great and his staff top notch. I highly recommend him.

I’ve been coming to Soft Touch Dental for over four years, and this office truly lives up to its name. Dental visits can be so nerve wrecking but not here. Dr. Fakhimi and his staff are so gentle, and I’ve never experienced any pain at my visits. I also had 8 porcelain veneers done on my top teeth with laser gum treatment (See before and after pic below) and what a great difference it has made! I love this office and the front staff is always timely and available when I need to make an appointment. I trust Dr. Fakhimi and staff to always take care of my smile and I’ve recommended Soft Touch Dental to all my friends and family.

Dr. Fakhimi is really nice and friendly. I had to get all four wisdom teeth out and was really scared. But they made the process easy. The staff reassured me it would not be bad. It only took around 30 minutes for all four teeth to come out. The recovery has not been too bad either. It isn’t as painful as i thought it would be. Everyone that works here is really nice as well. I always call with lots of questions and they are ready to answer them. I also love their hours. They are open until 7 on Wednesday which is nice for people who have to work late. I recommend this dentist.

Dr Fakhimi is amazing! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dental health! Thank you doc for everything!

Soft Touch Dental Group was recommended to me by my neighbor, Heather, who has been a patient for 11 years. My (now former) dentist said I needed a crown and a filling, and I told him I wanted a second opinion. I followed Heather’s recommendation and got a second opinion with Soft Touch. The office staff told me that they would meet or beat what other dentists quote, and she was absolutely right – it cost a whopping $ 200 less than what my other dentist quoted. The crown and filling work has been completed to my absolute satisfaction.
Their office is VERY comfortable and you can watch TV or listen to relaxing music.
I have already recommended this dental group to several friends. Dr. Fakhimi and his staff are professional, courteous, and top notch – 5 STARS!

Dr. Fakhimi presents a standard of excellence in personalized dental care that patients deserve. Not only does he provide the best dental services in a gentle and professional manner, he is so conscientious and patient-​focused. Building a foundation of trust by treating patients as special individuals is vital to his success. I recently had implants placed. And even though it’s a long, and (at times) painful process, the outcome could not have been better! Both he and his staff are obviously dedicated to providing excellent, personalized care and service that has made my visits comfortable and pleasant. If a dental emergency occurred, I have no doubt that Dr. Fakhimi would go out of his way to make every effort to see his patients as soon as possible…

I have been going to Soft Touch with Dr. Ali Fakhimi since I have been in SD. Crowns, Root Canals Dr. Ali makes me feel so relaxed, it’s like have just a teeth cleaning. Great service, staff is friendly and helpfull.

I truly truly truly do not enjoy going to the dentist but Dr. Fakhimi and his staff have changed all that for me. I have been going to the office for more than a year. I had a baby tooth replaced with an implant, teeth cleaned, and retainers made. I am always greeting with a smile. They also work with my crazy schedule and get me in and out of the office so I can get to my kids. Very happy with everything they have done for me and I actually look forward to going for my check-​ups!

I feel like this place is a scam they offer cleaning and x rays package deal however they don’t tell you until after you get the X-​rays that you now need a deep cleaning and that they won’t give you the cleaning you paid for on top of that I asked for my records and they put me threw the ringer! I’m still waiting for my records ! Take it from me they’re way over price and will make your life miserable! You’ve been warned!

Super friendly staff and skilled dentist. The team even stayed late (after 5 pm) to put in a temporary and a crown. I really appreciate it. Highly recommend them.

Had some work done here… root canal, crowns, etc.
Long story short, within 4 years BOTH crowns had to replaced… One crown cracked, allowed in bacteria, and incidentally infected my gums (tooth was deemed unsalvageable and extracted). This first crown was also packed so tightly against my back molar that it inhibited proper cleaning, leading to an infection and thus root canal and crown on that tooth as well. The second crown Soft Touch did was — and I’m quoting my current dentist and oral surgeon — ‘roughly done’, had a small ‘lip’ at the bottom that again let in bacteria and was replaced.
Looking back, I think the crowns, root canal, etc, etc was a shy under $ 1600 at Soft Touch, so on the inexpensive side for dental work — the result of having to have all the work redone and cleaned up though has already topped $ 4000.
I am so incredibly thankful my parents are helping cover the costs.

I have been going to Soft Touch Dental for over 10 yrs now and have been very please by the service and level of care provided by Dr. Ali Fakhimi and his office staff. I am always given several days notice by the office that my appointment is coming up which is very helpful as my schedule is very busy. I am always met with a smile when I arrive and sign in. When wait for my check up, cleaning or whatever I am always give the option to watch TV or just settle back and listen to the pleasant music that is playing. I don’t feel that the office has ever recommend procedures I don’t need and have had a few things done such as metal fillings replaced and veneers added. These were done several years ago and now I just going for my bi-​yearly checkup and cleanings. I would definitely recommend Soft Touch Dental to anyone who is looking for a dentist office that cares about their patients.

Thank you Dr. Ali Fakhimi and your awesome staff.
Husband went in to have a root canal, he had a lot of anxiety since he had not been to the dentist in years…
Your staff put him at ease, made him comfortable and the whole experience was a positive one.
Thank you again!!!

I just aw an ad in the Reader and thought – oh man, this guy?!
I went in many years ago for one of their deals and was told I couldn’t even get a cleaning because my teeth were in such bad shape. I required a special «deep cleaning» with numbing.
I went back and paid hundreds of bucks because I was a dumb kid. I remember he made me wait FOREVER – like hours – for the procedure.
There are SO MANY dentists in San Diego. Go to a good one. Who doesn’t take out full page ads to drum up new patients to fleece.

Great Office, Great staff — they really make you feel like a person in stead of an insurance claim.

I was extremely happy with everyone at Soft touch Dental Group. I had a free consultation with Dr. Fakhimi, he told me what I pretty much already knew which was I needed a lot of work due to a motocross accident a few years back. The thing that really impressed me right away is he seemed excited about fixing my smile, you can tell he is into his work. I had the same work priced at other places and Dr. Fakhimi quoted me the most competitive price which definitely factored into my decision. When all was said and done he did exactly what he said he would do, he dramatically changed my smile and I am grateful to him for it. His staff was courteous and extremely talented. His office is clean and relaxing. I have already referred several people including my mom to him and I will continue to so. Thank you everyone at Soft Touch!

Love Love Dr. Fahkimi! I’ve been going to him for dental work for years. He did my veneers a few years back and I absolutely love them, he did an amazing job. This past week I flew in from out of state to have him fix one of my veneers that I chipped. I saw a dentist in North Carolina, where I currently live, and was told there was no way to fix it and I would have to pay $ 700 to replace it. I decided to go see Dr. Fahkimi and of course he was able to fix it in half an hour. Definitely worth the trip. Job well done Dr!

Last week I went into for a Zoom! whitening treatment. It was my first visit, and after reading some of the negative reviews regarding ‘bed side manners’ I did have some concerns. However everyone was so nice to talk to. After being there I have a feeling that the saying ‘you get what you give’ may be appropriate for some of the other reviewers.
I believe it was Cynthia who I spend the most of my time with. She was extremely pleasant and she told me everything that was going on during my treatment. Even though I did deal with her the most, everyone one else I talked to was very professional and easy to work with.
The offices were very clean — so no problems there either.
Let’s face it, for any dentist group you go to, you only deal with the dentist a bit of the time. Most of time you’re dealing with tech’s or the front desk. It’s important that those folks know what they’re doing & do it in a professional/​pleasant manner. I live in SD and Kansas City & my regular dentist is back in Missouri, but I wouldn’t hesitate to use Soft Touch if I need work done while I’m here.

Total scam. They post adds in the reader for implants at $ 850 without crown, bone graph etc. when you get there, they jack the price up and say the ad didn’t include all the other things you’ll need done. For 2 implants with my insurance covering $ 2000, they tried to charge me $ 11,0000. Complete waste of time.

Scam Alert!!!
Just didn’t trust this guy so went to another dentist and found out I didn’t need ANY of the expensive procedures this guy said I had to have.
They lure you in with low price then find many non-​existent problems that will cost you.
STAY AWAY!!!
