PATIENT REVIEWS

I hadn’t been to the dentist for about 18 years. I had a lot of issues that I have to pay out of pocket and already knew it was going to be a pretty penny. I have a heavy gag reflex too so it only exacerbates my anxiety going to see a dentist. From the moment I arrived the front desk staff was very friendly and attentive. The assistant was sympathetic to my gag flex when taking the x-rays. The doctor was very knowledgeable and had great bedside manners, he was upfront with everything and let me know all the options available for the procedures I want to have done. When it came down to the financial, they really stepped up. They gave me a great price for everything. I had planned to pay all cash since my credit wasn’t great and had saved up maybe half for the procedures. Figured in a month and a half I’d be able to save up for the rest. But life kicked in and I had drop most of my savings into fixing my car and moving expenses. So, I went in again and tried to see what they could do for me. Elizabeth really worked with me. She actually got me a credit line after several failed attempts and even got me a way better price for everything. I went in for my first procedure immediately. They knocked it out of the park and I’m very happy, finally, getting much needed dental work!

I give the dentist, the radiologist and the assistant all 5 stars. The front desk leaves a bit to be desired. I have to agree with the other reviews , personality is definitely lacking. The girl that came out to take my temperature did not say hi, NOTHING, just snuck up on me and pointed the thermometer at my head. I thought it was strange also that she took mine and one other guy, but there were 4 of us all arrived around the same time and she didn’t take anyone elses. If it weren’t for the Doctor and the back office staff, Id go somewhere else. I want to give kudos also to the girl in the billing dept. She was super sweet and helpful.

This is by far the best dentist office I have ever been to, and I’ve been to quite a few these last few years while dealing with braces/crowns/cosmetic issues. I can honestly say that every single one of the employees truly cares about you and your experience. They have gone out of their way to make me happy and comfortable every single time I go in. I’d like to add that I am not an easy patient. I’m never satisfied and I’m constantly finding something cosmetic about my teeth that I want changed. Dr. Nigoghosian has always remained patient with me and has gone above and beyond to get my teeth looking exactly how I want them to. I’m so appreciative that he really listens to what I want and understands my concerns. Everyone is extremely professional at this office and all the assistants are so sweet. They understand that sometimes dental work can be painful and/or uncomfortable, but they seem to make it easier for me somehow! They walk you through every process and are very gentle. Like I said, I’ve seen a lot of dentists these past few years, but I have never actually enjoyed my dentist appointments until now!

I usually hate going to the dentist it’s one of my biggest fears, from the receptionist the all the staff everyone is so friendly and accepting that I forgot I was at the dentist office. I had a cleaning and filling changed my first time and returned back for teeth whitening. They worked on my teeth so patiently that I didn’t even feel the process when unusually can’t even handle a cleaning. I recommend you give them a try! You won’t regret it.

The staff & dentists at Golden Smiles Dental are super nice and friendly. I was looking to change my dentist and a friend referred me to Dr. Ankin. This place is amazing – super clean with friendly staff! They are in network with all dental insurance and will work with you if you don’t have insurance. The dentist and staff were really informative and gave me all my options and pricing, so that i can make my own decision instead of just going with whatever one person says. They were super attentive to make sure i was comfortable throughout my entire appointment. I will definitely come back, and recommend this place to friends and family. I think this is how a dental practice should run!

I heard about Golden smile Dental Office from a few of my coworkers. I was looking for a dentist here after I moved to Rancho Cucamonga, and my first experiences with them went so well that i felt like sharing. First of all, they are conveniently located, down on Milikian and Fourth Ave, only a few blocks from my job. Their website is clear and complete, you get all the information you need to know prior to your visit. I requested an appointment online, and an hour later, front desk called me back to set up my first visit. A warm and welcoming phone call tells you a lot about their excellent customer service. So far, I had a great impression. On the day of my appointment, I was welcomed by the assistand. Everything went smoothly and the comfortable atmosphere put my at ease… I get kind of nervous going to the dentist   I met with Dr.  Nigoghosian. I came in for a check up and to schedule a cleaning that was overdue. On top of being very nice and caring, she is such a professional and I really trust her diagnosis. I was worried about cavities, I tend not to floss as often as I should, and didn’t get a cleaning in a year after moving and the irrational fear of the dentist. Her diagnosis revealed that my teeth were healthy and in great condition and she also gave me advice on teeth whitening, which I am considering to get done there in the coming week. A few after my first visit, I came back to meet with the hygieni st for my cleaning. That was efficient, worked fast and great! Not only she’s a really good hygienist but we also had such a great talk, which made the experience better and faster. I loved the attention I got from all the staff, which makes my visit feel safe and painless. They don’t try to oversell you things like I’ve seen in the past with other doctors, they work with your insurance to limit your expense and give you the best pricing, I couldn’t find a better dental office in the area. I get why all my coworkers talk about this place.

Absolutely love this place! I moved to Rancho and needed a new dentist and looked to Yelp to help me find one. The reviews I read were all pretty positive, so I decided to give them a try…and they weren’t wrong!! I’ve had such wonderful experiences with everyone who works there. The ladies at the front desk are so sweet and helpful, especially Bridgette! She has taken so much time to answer all my questions and concerns with my Invisalign (she had it too) and is just so helpful and nice. I’ve had work done with both Dr Ankin Deragobian  so awesome! Dr Ankin is the one who is over seeing my Invisalign and I couldn’t be happier with the process so far. It’s a true delight to go into the office! I’m so happy with everything here so far and I look forward to being a patient for years and years to come. I highly recommend this office.

My experience with Golden Smiles has been nothing but excellent!!! I’ve been going to see Dr Ankin  for almost the last 3 years since they took over the office. Bridgette, their receptionist is amazing! Very pleasant, accommodating to my schedule and always greets me with a big smile! The office is clean and very modern. Dr Ankin is very knowledgeable in the field. During my visits they explain my options for treatment and give me payment plans. Let’s not forget to mention how light their hands are when they work on your teeth, you don’t feel a thing!!! Their fees are very affordable and competitive. You can tell their priority is the patient and not their profit.

Just had my first visit here and it was absolutely wonderful! Like most, I’m anxious before visiting the dentist, but everyone is so nice and pleasant here that it’s easy to feel relaxed. I felt very welcomed and well-taken care of. The examination and following treatment were thoroughly explained including what I would face in terms of cost. The cleaning was nice and quickly done. I believe the first-time paperwork took about as long as my time in the chair, and not at the expense of quality or conversation. I’m actually looking forward to coming back. They’re are absolutely wonderful!

This was my first time visit and first impression is it is a very nice,  new,  clean and efficient dental office. The ladies in both front and back office were extremely friendly. Customer service is an A+. The Dr introduced herself and reviewed every xray with me,  notifying me of what I did/didn’t need. She listened to my concerns and addressed each one with a solution. This office was recommended to me and I am now recommending it to you.

I have never been a fan of going to the Dentist. I had an enormous amount of pain on the side of my mouth. I came into Golden Smiles and Dr. Ankin told me I needed a root canal. I instantly was terrified about it.   Dr. Ankin friendly, but they are AMAZING dentists. I felt totally at ease with them, the atmosphere at Golden Smiles is great. Both doctors make you feel right at home. The facility is very clean, the staff are super nice, and both Dr. Ankin  do superb work. Golden smiles has some unbelievable pricing as well. I thought I was going to pay through the nose for the procedure, and it actually ended being  ery reasonable. I would highly recommended them to anyone who is looking for a top notch dentist.

My daughter was injured during an early morning cheer practice. Hit right in the mouth. You could see her front teeth had moved. I was extremely scared because the blood just would not stop and I wasn’t sure if her teeth were loose or not. I frantically began looking for a dentist to take her too. It being Easter weekend I didn’t want to wait. I called and Bridgette was extremely helpful. She advised me to walk in and they would squeeze her in. I got there and maybe 30 min later (which was nothing to me cause they were busy) she was in and had X-rays done. They were all super attentive the Doctor spoke to a level where my 13 year old daughter was able to understand the extent of the trauma to her front teeth.  Its scary to be in that situation especially for my daughter. She’s not to found of dental work lol but she felt comfortable and said “I really like this place” I then knew we had gone to the right place! Some preventive work was done so her teeth wouldn’t move glad I made the decision to do that.

Golden smiles is wonderful. I went in feeling ok and thinking they would check my cavity and I would come back in a few days to do the root canal. They wanted to start right away. I was terrified. My anxiety of the dentist kicked in and I started to cry. My fear of the dentist is really bad. The doctor and the nurse made sure I was ok and continue to ask me if I was ok. They made me feel more comfortable and walked me through every step. He stopped every so often to make sure I was ok. It was a good experience and hopefully when I go back my anxiety won’t be as bad!

After many years of bad experiences and MAJOR dental problems I was so happy when my husband found this dentist office for our family . They are all absolutely amazing! I have a overwhelming fear of the dentist and after bringing my children in and speaking with Bridgette I decided to go ahead and make a appointment for myself she was beyond helpful in making me feel comfortable with the whole process and she always happy to see me when I walk in the door. The dentist themselves are also amazing. On my first visit I saw Dr Ankin and she was a such a blessing. I have seen Dr Harry every time since and he has made sure that I am comfortable and he always explains everything to me. I would definitely recommend this dentist to everyone!

When we moved to Rancho Cucamonga from Huntington Beach, I was skeptical about taking my 8 & 12 yr old to a new dental office we didn’t know. I saw Golden Smiles was directly across the street from our apt and I decided to call. From that very first call that I had with Bridgette I was sold. She greeted us as we came in with such a cheerful and vibrant personality and was excellent with my girls. The doctors and dental assistants have been very sweet to my girls as well. They now feel comfortable attending their appts on the regular. I highly recommend this office to anyone of any age. 🙂

My experience at Golden Smiles was extremely pleasant. The office was beautiful and the doctors and staff were all extremely friendly, and I felt very comfortable during my visit. I went in for a cleaning and some minor work. Dr. Ankin N was very Pleasant and lessened my anxiety. I had nervous feeling initially, but once I got there for my appointment the staff and doctor quickly made me realize my anxiety was in vain. I felt nothing during my cleaning or procedures and was so relieved after everything was over. I would 100% go back to Golden Smiles for my future dental care.

First things first, I’ve never been a big fan of going to the dentist. I don’t know anyone who is, but I avoided going for years. I found Golden Smiles when I was looking for Invisalign providers and I’m so glad I came in. I now come to them for all my appointments, not just my Invisalign treatment. Bridget and the girls at the front desk are always so welcoming and remember your name. The staff are so caring and keep you calm (and entertained) while you’re there, and both doctors are amazing. Dr. Ankin has always been very gentle and understands that the dentist isn’t my favorite place to be. The entire staff make an effort to make sure you are comfortable for your appointment. I have felt confident and happy with Golden Smiles since day one. I would recommend this office to anyone who dislikes the dentist… which is basically everyone.

I had some trouble getting my correct appointment in on the day I requested but they were able to fix the issue and have me seen the same day. The ladies at the front desk and Bridgette are very lively and friendly. The duration of my visit was a bit long but I am sure it was because I was a new patient. The dentist that gave me my fill-ins was able to answer all of my questions and also has a great personality, 3 fill-ins took less than about 25 minutes and she and her assistant had me laughing the entire time. I would come here again

Hands down this is the BEST DENTIST IVE EVER GONE To. Yesterday night I was having dinner and my tooth filling from a previous dentist fell out I called early this morning and was told to come in as I arrived I was nervous and extremely scared from past experiences but everyone I mean everyone was extremely nice and understanding of my fear. I was talked through everything made me feel so comfortable I always read yelp reviews but never knew how a fear could go away I actually made a appointment to go back to complete my full mouth X-ray tomarrow ! Thank you so much golden smiles you guys are hands down then best ever

Switched my whole family to this office and I have to say…..I am SOOO happy I did. The staff is outstanding! My 5 year old had his appointment first and Bridget is a doll! Bridget interacted with my son so well that he was so comfortable. To tell you the truth I had anxiety taking my son but both Dr. Deragobian and Bridget put me at ease. Dr. Deragobian is awesome! She interacts greatly with children and is very patient. She communicated with my son throughout the entire cleaning and explained to him everything she was doing so that he wouldn’t get scared. Just amazing!Very professional and definitely people pleasers! There are not many sincere dental practices like this office nowadays especially having great customer service all in one. This is definitely the place to go to!

As a insurance broker in Alta Loma who offers dental coverage, it is always a pleasant surprise to receive 5-Star service from a new local dentist like Golden Smiles in Rancho Cucamonga. The entire team including Bridgette, Glenda and of course Dr. Ankin Deragobian are committed to providing the best quality care at competitive prices. They accept many types of insurance and have some great new patient specials.  I did not feel pressured even though I will need an implant soon. I plan on referring our clients to Golden Smiles Dental. Thank you for the care package too!

I really like this team, the dentists are very kind and make me feel very comfortable, the staff too is very friendly and treat me like someone special. I am having a lot of work done including implants and even though its not a cheap process, I feel good investing into my future smile with this team. I have sensitive nerves in my mouth and I literally feel no pain with these dentist. The facility is state of the art and they even have TV monitors for us at their dental chairs. Thank You  Dr. Ankin

So far just from my phone call I felt good its so hard to take something so personal as your smile open your moth and say theese are my flaws please help me with no judgment. After calling 4 dentist they seem to fit. To help me get out of Paine and smile when my daughter starts school this year will keep u posted on my Golden dental smile. K.W.

So I was working three weeks straight in Rancho Cucamonga and of course my tooth starts killing and I had been neglecting it on top of it. Now I am horrified of dentist, but I guess most are, that being said I had to get my tooth looked at. So I call Golden Smiles because they were close to my hotel. I was thinking maybe i would have to take a day off to go get my tooth checked out but they saw me when it’s was convenient for me! Awesome! They were able do my procedure easily and both dentists are amazing!!!! Loved my experience, definitely gonna make them my primary dentist even though I live an hour away If you are looking for a great dental experience this is the place!!

I needed to find a new dentist because I was unhappy with bright now dental. I turn to YELP to help aid me in my decision. I’m so happy I did. Golden Smiles got great reviews, so I had my first visit today. The front desk was great, what was neat is she have me a gift card because my birthday just passed. The Dr. And his assistant were very patient and explained everything they were going to do. I’m not an easy patient but they handled my fear with compassion. I thought I would never sat this but I am looking foward to my next appointment.

I cannot tell you how relieved I am to find a good dentist! I have had horrible experiences in the past and I HATE going to the dentist! The dentists at Golden Smiles Dentist have been so patient, so kind, and they work with you financially. They are genuinely concerned for you and they Make sure to do a great Job. I actually feel bad for them because I think I am a little difficult. But they take great care of me anyway! Obviously, I highly recommend them.

I had to switch from the welfare of dentistry mills (Western Dental) to another place that was open on Saturdays.  I was tired of being at Western Dental all day long because they would over book appointments and try to rush through treatments in what was clearly a money grab by upselling more expensive proceedures that weren’t required.  Then there is the corporate office that relentlessly bothers you because they bill your insurance wrong and refuse to talk to the insurance company to work it out. The great news is that Golden Smiles is not the Western Dental Nightmare!  This office has a small town feel because everyone I met was friendly and personable.  There is no carosel of dentists where you never see the same one twice, and they keep your appointment time so you don’t spend hours in the waiting room or unattended in the chair.  Dr. Deragobian took the time to explain and show on the x-rays what she was looking for.  Dr. Deragobian made her recomendations after the x-rays and exam, but I didn’t feel any pressure to get the most expensive treatment possible.  She gave treatment options and explained the benefits and shortfalls of each. Bridgett the financial guru proactively worked with my insurance company to ensure that I knew what my portion of treatment was before I agreed to anything.  She also offered to break up my co-pay portion into payments rather than lump sum due that day without having to fill out some long contract with interest.

I love this dentist, very down to earth. This says a lot for me since I’ve feared them all my life. I don’t feel like just a number here. I can explain my fears, my past experiences and they accommodate those issues from happening again. The procedures and recommendations are explained throughly prior to work being done. I’m very happy here. I just need better insurance to cover more of the work. The entire staff is nice, very clean place. Just bring a set of VR goggles or ear phones if you need a distraction during the work. Overall, I highly recommend golden smiles to anyone.

This dental office is the most caring and patient sensitive I have ever worked with. The attention to your pain is handled with such caring and humanity from the moment you enter. I highly recommend that you ask for Bridget upon arrival because she welcomes you with a genuiness that makes your procedure as uncomplicated as possible, from  the paper work to the insurance coverage, she exceeds expectations. Her next day followup is spontaneous and comforting which is very appreciated. She has more than a Golden Smile she has a golden heart.

I just need to put this out there. Best dental service I’ve ever experienced. I am one of the millions out there who never looks forward to going to the dentist, but after my visit at Golden Smiles, that fear has become irrelevant. Went in for a deep cleaning which required numbing with a needle and I was freaked out. By the time I knew it, the numbing process was over. I didn’t feel a thing. Both dentists that worked on me had the most calm and gentle hands. I, literally, enjoyed the cleaning process because it was painless. I’ve had many deep cleanings before and have always hated myself afterwards for not taking care of my teeth so I can avoid having to go the dentist for reasons other than a regular bi-annual visit. Overall, this place deserve a 5 star and will recommend to anyone. Thank you, Golden Smiles!

After moving to California, I was worried about finding a dentist that was as great as the one I had in Chicago.  But worry no more!  The entire staff at Golden Smiles in Rancho are some of the most dedicated to helping you not only feel at ease, but at providing the most quality customer service out there.  Unlike most dentists I’ve had in the past, Dr Ankin  incredibly honest regarding the level of care that is needed, and do phenomenal work!  The location is very easy to get to, is incredibly clean, updated, and filled with new technology such as digitalized x-ray imaging!  SCORE…. I was super worried about finding a dentist because of a chipped front tooth… the small chip was filled several years ago in the past, but the filling came out after mistakenly using my teeth to untie something.  Drs Ankin  to the rescue!!!  They were able to restore the chipped tooth for me, with an almost flawless cosmetic result afterward!  Thankfully I saved the cost and time of having to get a crown or veneers… in an incredibly cosmetic area!  Ive never felt more confident smiling! Not only that, but I needed a few fillings replaced, and a new crown…. (yes, was in desperate need of a good dentist)… and Dr Ankin  able to provide me with the best care.  They are both incredibly patient, and the fillings were done as pretty pain free as it gets, which for me, is really important because I’ve had some bad experiences in the past.  They worked with my insurance to make sure that I received the most affordable care as well.  Compassion and empathy like that is not easy to find in the dental world, but with Dr Ankin  you are definitely in good hands

I’ve never felt compelled to write a Yelp review until I recently visited Golden Smiles Dental. Not only did I receive the best quality of service, I left feeling absolutely cared for.  Dr Ankin are true professionals, and masters at their craft. On even the busiest of days, they were attentive, courteous and dedicated. Every procedure was explained thoroughly, and for once, I was actually not terrified to have dental work done. Golden Smiles Dental is truly a hidden gem!! I wholeheartedly recommend you visit!

Just had the greatest dental experience of my life getting a deep cleaning and my wisdom teeth extracted and I was a basket case for the books! I cannot express my utmost gratitude for my beautiful doctor and her beautiful staff for making me feel like i was amongst family in a super high anxiety situation for me. The entire team went above and beyond to make me feel comforted and informed the entire way through by their thorough explanations, holding my hand, constantly checking if I was ok and support. I’ve never seen a happier Dentist and staff. My doctor was a beautiful and vibrant young woman (Ankin I believe) and everything from her demeanor to the softness with which she speaks will take care of any anxiety you can have. I literally adore these women and want to be their friends, they are that special. For all the work i had to have I was out in an hour. Absolutely spectacular, i will never go anywhere else. Thank you so so much.

Office and bathrooms were clean. It isn’t one of these offices that has tv’s everywhere so if you like to watch something while you are there just know that. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I loved Dr. Ankin. She was the one doing the cleaning which really surprised me. She wasn’t pushy, she recommended and showed me what I needed. I don’t know if it was because it was my first appt but I arrived there at 9 and left at 11:50! I had a deep cleaning, x rays and teeth whitening. Nothing took as long (except teeth whitening which was about 45min) as them setting up and plugging things or re-doing one of my x-rays (which I am not a fan of) because the lady ( in her defense she seemed new) didn’t take it right. Overall, I liked the place and most of all the Dr so I will be back. Recommendations: fast paced staff.

GREAT DENTISTS. Truly I’ve never been a fan of dentists offices I even switched from my prior dentist because of bad experiences and came here to Golden Smiles; a choice I’ve never regretted since! Dr. Anakin are very friendly, efficient, and  knowledgeable! My family comes here now for our dental needs and the staff is great and help out in any way they can. If you need a trustworthy, reliable office, this is it!
