I cannot say enough good things about this place. I felt right at home. I’ve only seen one dentist my entire life and this office/crew/dentist made my experience superb. Gina (front desk manager) is so sweet, the dentist and assistant were also very professional. If you’re looking for caring individuals, who truly enjoy their jobs and profession look no further!!

Thank You Dr. DaMacio, BJ and Gina for giving me my beautiful smile. I Love my Veneers So Much. I came in with missing teeth, discolored teeth and hated myself in pictures and in one day you gave me my smile back. I can’t stop looking at them and am taking lots of pictures again. I can’t thank you guys enough. You are the Best Dental Office on the planet!!!

I get nervous and anxious going to the dentist…All of the staff were great and took extra time to make sure I was ok and put my mind at ease. Dr Dimaccio was the BEST!!!

Jeff D. from Carlsbad, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’ve been going to Dr DiMaccio for more than 15 years and have never had a problem! Seriously the most professional and courteous dental practice I’ve seen after traveling around The world. The Dr and his staff are pleasant and practical. I highly recommend this practice for ask dental needs.

★★★★★

Have you ever been to a doctor to get a shot, and the nurse is so good at it that you barely even feel that it went in? That’s this place. I had plaque in my gums, and Dental Hygienist Patricia cleaned deep in my gums and it only felt like a normal teeth cleaning! I’ve gotten them cleaned elsewhere and it hurt so much that I probably left claw marks on the chair from gripping so hard. Anyway, everyone was really friendly and good at their job! Definitely going back!

★★★★★

Dr D has been our dentist for at least 20 years and has provided nothing but the finest care to our family. I wish all medical practitioners were as attentive to their patients as Dr DiMacio is to his. We have referred friends to him who are also very happy with the level of knowledge and care provided. They have referred their friends to Dr DiMacio as well. His Staff, Gina and BJ treat us like family. And PS…if you’re worried about injections, don’t be…you’ll NEVER feel even a pinch. This man Cares about his patients like no other!

Doctor DiMaccio is an amazing dentist!! I have nothing but good things to say about him, I’ve had my whole mouth done by him and it’s been painless! He is very careful and thorough with his work. He is also very kind and really cares about his patients!

★★★★★

First of all I’d like to say that I normally experience extreme anxiety when I go to the dentist and I didn’t even once while I was there today. The staff are all warm and friendly, and the Dr. is incredible, very knowledgeable and to the point. I have the upmost confidence in this practice. I have a broken tooth and they got me in first thing this morning and intervened immediately to get me out of pain and fight infection. They were very direct and straight forward with my treatment plan, only addressing the immediate issue, not my entire mouth. I have ran into that time after time, where they give you an overall estimate of your whole mouth. It’s much more approachable when you break it down into steps instead of an overwhelming entire mouth treatment plan. I am so grateful I found them and I highly recommend this office. I actually look forward to coming back to get my work done! That’s a first for me! Thank you La Costa Dental Care! Everyone from the front desk Traci, & Gina to the dental assistant and Dr. DiMaccio are all amazing.

★★★★★

Friendly and professional, from start to finish. The was my first time there, and the experience was first rate all the way. Addendum: DiMaccio and staff are second to none. Today, whilst having a new crown installed, I observed artistry.

Terry A. from Carlsbad, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My family and I have been patients of Dr. DiMaccio for over a quarter of a century. He is a very skilled, caring dentist. After wanting veneers for years, I finally took the plunge. He did 8 on top and four on the bottom. For the first time in many years I actually love smiling, and don’t have to cover my mouth with my hand every time I laugh or smile. His periodontist also removed some gum from above my upper teeth because I had a gummy, unattractive smile. Since I got my beautiful new smile, I have newly regained confidence – I never realized how much a beautiful smile has to do with feeling self-assured and confident. Thank you, Dr. DiMaccio – I am STOKED!! You are truly gifted! Also, his staff are very welcoming and professional, thank you to Gina and Tracey who handled the business part so expertly and smoothly, and to BJ and Abby who were so compassionate and comforting, I felt I was in good hands throughout. I am so ecstatic I finally got my new smile, BTW I receive compliments all the time. I would recommend this dentist and his extraordinary staff 100%. Competency, professionalism and compassion at the highest level.

★★★★★

Dr D and his team are spectacular!  I was referred here by a good friend and I am so glad to have found them.  I have had a significant amount of work done and I could t be more pleased.  Many years ago I worked for a dentist and I have had lots of work done. Dr. D is my favorite and this is by far the best overall team – from office staff to hygienist to assistants.  They really care 🙂 I’ve never had a truly painless injection until here!

★★★★★

Great office! Super busy but you almost never have to wait. And Dr. DiMaccio never causes any pain when doing any dental procedure. You are waiting for him to start and he tells you it is all finished!

Carol N. from Carlsbad, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My husband and I have been patients at La Costa Dental Care for 16 years. John Dimaccio is the most professional dentist that either of us have ever visited. John recommends dental work that is necessary and will provide additional services upon request, but never pushes these additional services with the patient. The office manager, Gina, is a patient advocate who will support you with any insurance/billing questions or issues. In 16 years, I cannot think of a single instance that she was not able to resolve an issue for us. John’s staff is always first rate and extremely professional. Each new team member appears to be well trained and engrained in the office philosophy of excellent patient care. We highly recommend John Dimaccio and the La Costa Dental Care office for any of your dental needs.

If I could give them a 10 star I would. I just had my Mercury filling redone with the new composites! It was quick, painless, and my teeth look absolutely beautiful! As soon as I walked into the office, the front desk manager, Gina Hirata, exceeded with customer care! She was extremely friendly, her smile lights up a room, and a lot of fun to be around. There was hardly any waiting time, they were very quick, and the staff was very on top of things. Dr. DiMaccio is very compassionate and very thorough and comforting. I had TMJ and he relieved it with his own technique that was very quick and easy. It felt like family there and I’ll always go to them for all my dental needs! Love them!

★★★★★

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Dimaccio at La Costa Dental Care since I was 16 (I am almost 29 now) and I love him! His staff is also really great and provides great customer service! The office manager Gina is also really nice. He also is very gentle and you NEVER feel the needle when he numbs you (he does this genius thing where he shakes your lip… he’s the only dentist I have ever seen do it). What is also really cool is I noticed they have a basket of toys behind the desk and when I asked what that was the receptionist explained to me that it is for little kids who visit the dentist for the first time so they aren’t afraid to come back! So I thought that was really neat. I recommend Dr. Dimaccio to everyone: family, co-workers, friends, etc and everyone I send loves him!

Going to Dr. DiMaccio’s office is always such a pleasure! From Gina in the front who greets you by name, to the hygenists who ask about your day to Dr. DiMaccio who is truly the best of the best. His dental office is one of a kind! If you need a dentist for any age or any reason, this is your place. Hands down.

★★★★★

My husband and I have gone to Dr. D for about six years.  We love him and his team!  No one really ‘enjoys’ going to the dentist but it’s one of life’s tasks that has to get done.  Dr. D has always made me feel calm when I’ve had to get a filling and confident because he’s so good at what he does!  I’ve even taken my toddler in a few times for an exam.  Thank you Dr. D!  We are big fans!!

Yesterday I had my first appointment with Dr. DiMaccio and his wonderful staff. From the moment I walked thru the door I was so wonderfully greeted and the entire appointment was informative and thorough. Every precaution was taken for my safety and my temperature was taken immediately. So grateful to have found Dr. DiMaccio!

★★★★★

The best Dentist and Dental practice I’ve found in 40+ years! Gina is an expert in navigating the insurance plans, is incredibly helpful. Dr D is incredibly skilled, gentle and does great work. The team of dental hygienists are top notch, friendly and do great work. I highly recommend Dr D, He’s the best.

Robert M. from Carlsbad, CA (Source: Yelp)

I have always been very happy to have Dr. DiMaccio as my dentist. He is patient, concerned,  gentle and good natured as are his entire staff. I am very nervous about going to the dentist but I have come to trust this man. Recently I had a toothache on a weekend. I called Dr. DiMaccio early on a Saturday. he was out of town but he quickly returned my call. He realized I needed a root canal and made all the arrangements for me to see an Endodontist over the weekend. He handled all this within the space of about an hour. Everything worked out about as well as a toothache can. Dr. Dimaccio also has the most interesting collection of waiting room magazines. I get there early just to read the mags! This guy is a great choice.

Excellent experience all around! Very professional and kind staff, and Dr. DiMaccio is extremely knowledgable and experienced. Would highly recommend.

First off… it makes me very nervous to be at the dentist office.  BUT.. I can say i was very comfortable here at La Costa Dental Care. SO comfortable that all my kids go to this office.  Dana is my Dental Hygienist quick and painless. AWESOME STAFF… They kept me well informed. Jodi…You’re awesome too. Go see them and they will take care of you.  JON.

Dr. DiMaccio has been our dentist for 15 years and we love him. He just saved two of my teeth after I loosened them in a bike accident. He helped my wife keep her four of her teeth after she went through chemotherapy. He gives solid practical advice and does not recommend unnecessary procedures. He and his dental and office staff have been nothing but wonderful to us. Gina is amazingly helpful with insurance matters, I would add. We can’t recommend this dentist and office more highly. (And the best chair is the one closest to the front and the waiting room, because there you can watch the fish in the tank.)

I have been a patient of Dr John DiMaccio for approximately twenty years and still feel fortunate to have him and his staff as my provider of choice. Their level of expertise is only exceed by their caring attitudes. Gina, office manager, also deserves a special “shout-out!”

★★★★★

Best Dentistry experience ever! From the oh so professional front office staff (Tracy) & Office Manager, Gina your appointments are made, followed up by text reminders! They really go out of their way tp accomodate your schedule. Dr. DiMaccio is the best when it comes to numbing shots. I never even feel a pinch!!!! His gentle disposition will keep you at ease throughout any procedure. I have had cleanings, fillings, crowns and veneers done. All while taking his time, and explaining throughout the appointment. The techs in the office also are amazing! NOT ONCE have I left a cleaning having my gums jammed and poked! I am getting ready to move out of state and will definitely be flying back for my dental needs! I found my dentist for life!!!!!

Best dentist in the whole world. I’ve been going here since 1993 when I was 4 years old and I love my dentist’s office- how many people can say that? If Dr Dimaccio ever retired i don’t know what’d i’d do because he’s the only dentist I trust. He has this magical way of administering the novacaine shot that you don’t even feel it. He makes getting cavities filled an easy and quick experience. Also, Gina is so sweet, she holds my baby for me every time I come in. Her and Tracy love babies and always want to help parents out by holding them while they’re in their appointment. Tracy is a great receptionist, always happy and is super sweet with my kids every time i bring them in. All the dental hygienists  are really cool as well. I refer people here all the time because they’re the best.

The whole staff and Dr. DiMaccio are great! Very gentle, non judgemental and empathetic. I recommend this office to anyone who is nervous about going to the dentist, they will take care of you from the initial phone call, to the minute you walk out the door. 10 stars!!

★★★★★

Dr. Dimaccio and his staff are great. He’s thorough, no pain, great chair side manner and great work. I’ve been going to him for years and would highly recommend him. The staff is great from the hygienist to his assistant to the front desk and manager. Their prices are great and always willing to work with you. If you’re looking for a change, try him, you’ll be glad you did.

★★★★★

I have three things to say about Dr. DiMaccio. His rates are reasonable, he’s painless and the quality of work he does is great. The only complaint I have is my friends are jealous of my veneers. Thanks Dr. DeMaccio.

★★★★★

I have had the opportunity to visit many dentists for myself and my family over the last 25 years and still drive 150 miles from Los Angeles to see Dr. DiMaccio. The principle reason I see him is for his personal and professional integrity. His professional opinions are conservative, cautious, well-concieved and appropriate to each patient. In this age of high pressure, impersonal, corporate health care “delivery sytems” it’s nice to meet an conservative Midwestern fellow whose treatment recommendations and ethics reflect the best family values of compassionate care for his fellow Man. For Dr. John P. DiMaccio, dentistry is still a profession, not a business. I recommend him without reservation. Dr. Neal C.

I am so glad that Dr DiMaccio is now my dentist. Since, I had waited too long in between check ups and cleanings, I developed a couple cavities in the back of my mouth. I DO NOT like shots so needless to say, I was not happy. I went ahead and fixed them and to my SURPRISE; I did not feel anything :0) I would recommend Dr DiMaccio to everyone, he is very caring and gentle. Now that my teeth are clean and fixed, I am straightening my lower teeth with special clear trays, YEH !!! I don’t have to wear braces again.

I love this dental office! Starting with the front desk- they are professional, very helpful and know what they are talking about. They are very welcoming and allayed my fears with respect to my concerns. The dental assistant who worked on me was so great- 2 visits of 2 hours each with not one drop of water going down my throat. He made 2 sets of impressions and I never gagged even a little!  Dr. DiMaccio is wonderful. A true artist.  I had 6 veneers on my upper front teeth and they are perfect and beautiful.  They look like they belong. I was nervous and the doctor was great at walking me through the whole process.  I didn’t feel the numbing shots at all. It was actually a very pleasant experience. I’m 62 years old and have been to numerous dentists.  He is the best!

I call John DiMaccio a magician.  He has made 5 tooth bridges for my mouth that look incredible and feel great. i am so grateful for his talent.  His kindness and wonderful service keep my smile looking really good and I am 74 years old. Thank you John
