Pinto Audra, DMD

I found Dr. Pinto via Unilocal.I had been avoiding the dentist and it was going on too long between my visits. I have never picked anything other then food with Unilocal but the reviews were so positive I figured it was worth making an appointment.
My first visit I met with Dr Pinto. She did the cleaning herself and took the time to explain everything. I have never had a dentist clean my teeth and really spend time getting to know my dental needs. Dental health after all is indicative of overall health — so why isn’t this approach more common? During my first visit I mentioned the expensive mouth guard recommended by my prior dentist– she recommended I go to a drug store and see if the drug store guards worked for me.
In subsequent cleanings she has been professional and remembers me from visit to visit. She values her hygienists opinions and treats them with respect. Staff always takes the time to explain what and why they are doing things.
To top it all off they always have good music and are on time!!!

My husband and I have both been going to Dr. Pinto for over five years. Dr. Pinto takes the pain and dread out of going to the dentist. Unlike dentists I’ve seen in the past where you get to see the dentist for five minutes max, Dr. Pinto herself does cleanings! She and her staff are gentle, friendly and efficient. Usually in and out within 45 minutes with squeaky clean teeth. Always a great experience! Both my husband and I have referred several friends. Highly recommend Dr. Pinto!

I decided to give Audra a try after reading such great reviews on Unilocal,and I’m thrilled that I did. Everyone I’ve met there is friendly and personable, and I’m incredibly impressed by their customer care: she and her staff went out of their way to squeeze me in for a last-​minute filling two days before my insurance ran out. These days, it’s less expensive to pay out of pocket for a biannual cleaning and the occasional filling than to pay for insurance, so my partner and I will keep heading back whether or not we’re covered!

Over the 13 years I’ve been seeing Dr. Pinto, I’ve referred more than 100 people (many of whom proclaim to hate dentists) to her. She walks the line between perfect professional and best pal. For the 30 minutes you’re with her, she will make you feel like you’re the most important person in the world. She talks to you like an equal when she describes her diagnosis and treatment recommendations. She listens better than any health care provider I’ve ever encountered. My children and husband adore her. Her hygienists are incredible. Her receptionists are incredible. I can’t recommend her highly enough. 10 stars!

I’ve been going to Dr. Pinto for a couple of years now and I think she’s the best. She’s repeatedly gone above and beyond to make sure my visits are as comfortable as possible (I’m a little nervous at the dentist office typically). The environment is warm and friendly and both Dr. Pinto and the staff explain everything to me thoroughly so that I always fully understand the options.
Love Dr. Pinto — in a purely odontological way of course — fan for life here.

Audra has been my dentist for… probably 15 years at least! I don’t like having anyone else near my teeth, except for her hygienists, who are excellent too. Dr. Pinto herself and all of her staff are very personable and delightful to work with, and make every part of seeing a dentist as painless as possible. I (and they) have had to deal with issues such as a strong gag reflex and a dry mouth, both of which make it challenging to work on me at times — and challenging for me too! — but they never gets frustrated, and always work to make me as comfortable as possible, whether I’m just getting my teeth cleaned or having dental work done.
Best dentist I know — I absolutely recommend her without any reservations — 6 stars if I could!
