Gentle Dental Brea

"WOW! Literally one of the best dentists I have been to. I am a very big scaredy cat when it comes to the dentists but this clinic really took my worry away from me. The atmosphere is clean and welcoming and the staff are super friendly. It felt as if I was a lifelong client (which I 100% will be after this visit)! The dentist and hygienists I saw were gentle, nice, and informative. I asked a lot of questions and they were able to answer all of them. Overall, my experience was fantastic and I recommend this dentist 100%!"

"Gentle Dental Brea Review: Let me start by saying that I am absolutely terrified of the dentist. I have been traumatized and horrified with previous visits at OTHER dental offices which kept me from going regularly. I knew I had to go since it’s been quite some time since my last dental visit— and I am SO happy that I decided to come to Gentle Dental in Brea. The entire staff was nothing short of amazing! On the night before my appointment (mind you, it was a Sunday), I got a text saying they had a water leak, so I would have to reschedule my 9am appointment the following morning. I thought “oh boy here we go, have to come another day” but nope. They re-scheduled me as soon as their leak was fixed on the same day as my original appointment at 2pm. They are on top of their scheduling and very efficient. Tommy (Reception) - was quick, friendly, competent and productive, while answering ALL my questions and simultaneously being on the phone. Talk about master multi-tasker! Great at his job and was happy to do it! Miriam (Billing/Reception) - was really straightforward and great at explaining next steps along with pricing. I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed but she made dental jargon easy for me to understand and was overall just very helpful and sweet! Dominic (Dental Assistant) - Wow! Talk about some of the best vibes and energy I’ve ever come across in any medical setting! Like I mentioned earlier, I am absolutely traumatized from past dental visits. Dominic really knew how to keep me calm every step of the way, whether he was singing, making a joke, or distracting me when need be. He is an absolute gem and this dental office is VERY lucky to have him! Lisa (Dental Hygienist) - What an amazing, kind, and funny woman. She did my cleaning so quickly— and the entire experience was very different (in a good way!) than any other I’ve ever had before. She was cracking jokes and laughing the entire time. Plus she checked on me multiple times throughout my cleaning to make sure I was doing okay, which I really appreciated. Such a cool chick! Dr. Malak (Dentist) - quick, calm, honest, and very sweet. She explained everything to me in layman’s terms. She never rushed, nor tried to upsell me on anything that wasn’t necessary, which speaks volumes of her character. I know plenty of medical professionals who will try to upsell you on anything just to make a quick buck— and Dr. Malak is NOT one of those. I am incredibly grateful for the kindness, patience, and empathy I received here. Overall this office has THE BEST positive vibes and energy! Definitely recommend for anyone that is afraid of dental visits or just anyone in general who needs to go. 10/10 and will definitely be back here! Thank you Gentle Dental Brea staff for everything!"

"I had a cleaning & replacement of 2 old fillings done the other day and it was an overall great experience! Front desk was good. Dr Malak did a great job, she was patient and made sure to explain everything I needed to know. Hygenist Dominic was also great and kept it fun which was a very nice distraction from the sometimes not so fun dental work. I'll be back in 6 months for my next cleaning."

"I came in the morning for my routinely check-up and a cleaning, and the girl at the front desk helped me immediately. After waiting a short while, I had my x-rays taken with no trouble or pain at all. For my check-up, the doctor was very nice and patient, especially with my wisdom teeth concerns. For my cleaning, however, the dental hygienist, Vivian, was incredibly gentle and thorough - I left the office satisfied with my stain-free teeth! Can't wait to come back for another cleaning; I hate visiting the dentist, but her passion for her work and the tangible satisfactory results make it all worth it."
