PATIENT REVIEWS

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Ali for over 3 years now and I can not emphasize on how grateful I am that I found a great team of professionals.  I named the individuals above because each one of them need to be recognized for the work they do, even Princess ( therapy dog)  who comes to greet me and comfort me every time I’m in the dental chair. This review is long overdue but I felt the need to wait until my dental work was completely done as well as being completely satisfied and happy about my journey. I’ve gotten all my wisdom teeth taken out, fillings, regular dental cleaning and Veneers. I must say that Dr. Ali was very patient throughout the process as well as  understanding and receptive to my needs and wants. I was very nervous about the veneer procedure and outcome of it all. I wanted them to look as natural as possible,  and they do!  The outcome makes me regret not getting them sooner. The work that they do is exceptional, I never felt pressured into dental work I didn’t need, matter of fact when I told Dr. Ali that I wanted all my top to be Vaneers he explained to me why there was no need. When it comes to the attention you hope your dentist, dental assistant, dental hygienist can provide for you, this team exceeds the expectations. They make you feel comfortable and are constantly asking if you’re okay. They really set the tone and have great bedside manner. This is my first yelp review and I’m glad it’s from a life changing positive experience in my life! Highly recommend Dr. Ali S. And his staff!

As A Doctor who was in practice for over 20 years, I did my research. Dr. Saeghi is by far the best dentist I have found. He is very competent and skilled, and his treatment is virtually painless. Allow this review to say that he is “Doctor” recommended. The staff is very friendly and helps to calm any anxiety. They treat you like family. In a word, the Doctor and his staff are “Outstanding.”

I get anxious about going to the dentist, but I feel confident that I get the best care possible from Dr. Saeghi. There are many other dentists closer to my home, but this office is worth the drive. Very calm and reassuring, the office is always clean and the staff is always friendly. Yes, I had to have some major work done at first, due to years of neglect, but now my visits are quick and efficient.

If you want to feel at ease and comfortable with your dentist visit/experience go to Modern Age Dentistry. Dr.Saeghi came up with the best plan for my needs and took alot of stress away from the dreaded “dentist visit”. Liz and Nicole are always so welcoming and are very knowledgeable at what they do and the process and it makes a huge difference. Joanne is an amazing hygienist and so detailed with what she does. I’ve had cleanings before and they have never been this detailed.  Joanne is so caring and attentive making sure you’re doing ok through the process. This is an amazing office with an amazing staff and its always calming to be greeted by “Princess” the service dog.Thank you Modern Age Dentistry

My previous dentist said that I would always need to use that horrible denture adhesive for the rest of my life.  Well, Dr. Saeghi gave me dentures that fit so well that I don’t use the adhesive at all any more.  The look and feel of the dentures is great, much better than my earlier ones. I have already sent friends to him and intend to continue to do so. Dr. Saeghi was trained at the dental academy in Gothenburg, Sweden.  I lived over there briefly so I know that this is the premier dental academy in the world.  He has the best training and it shows.

What a wonderful experience  Dr . Saeghi  gave me since my husband past away..last year. I had unfinished dental work, and didn’t have the means to  complete the previous procedure.He went above and beyond to finish my  dental work. I’ve never had a professional in this field  be so   caring and compassionate! I give him the utmost gratitude, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs any dental assistance!!! Sincerely,  Barbra Rosdahl

I have gone through several dental offices in the past few years.  I had a mouth full of issues and Modern Age Dentistry stepped up to the plate, outlined a treatment plan for all of my dental issues, and made sure I had regularly scheduled cleanings.  I was very overwhelmed with all of the work that needed to be done and the expense, however, the staff broke down the treatment plan in a way I could understand it and set me up on payment plans that were affordable to me.  The staff is super friendly and Dr. Saeghi was very gentle during all of my procedures.  They always call me and email me reminders one week and then a few days in advance and are super professional.  I have a long road ahead of me concerning my dental work, but in less than a year, they have accomplished a great deal of the very much needed dental work.  I will be staying with Modern Age Dentistry for the long haul.

Dr. Saeghi & his entire team are perfect examples of EXCELLENCE in care! I had a broken tooth and needed a root canal & they fit me in the next morning. I was expecting a quick eval but got a partial root canal in 25 min!?! I even made it to work early! I am finally without pain for the first time in over 5 days. Every time I go in for care they continue to exceed my expectations! Thank you Modern Age Dentistry for completely changing my views on what a visit to the dentist is all about & for putting an end to being afraid of the dentist! You got a patient for life!

In contrary to what others have commented, Dr. Saeghi  is the best dentists Ive ever had. Not having gone to the dentist for 5 years I knew I was going to be in for a reality check on my teeth.  Yes, it was the $59 special that caught my attention in the Pennysaver ad and Im glad I called.  I didnt get the regular cleaning that is supposed to be included in the $59 special, only because I needed gum treatment and a regular cleaning wasnt going to do me or my teeth any good.  Being in denial at first, it took a 2nd visit for them to explain it to me and make me understand that the problem was in my gums and thats where the treatment needed to be done. Im very glad that they were persistant at educating me and HIGHLY recommend Dr. Saeghi. I HONESTLY feel that people dont understand the difference between a regular cleaning and gum treatment. No one wants to hear the truth when it comes to their teeth.  Reality can be scary but Communication is Key

I absolutely LOVE Modern Age Dentistry! The entire staff is absolutely amazing! Everyone was warm, friendly, helpful, courteous, and it just seemed like a happy work place. They even have Princess the therapy dog for those whom suffer from anxiety when having dental work done 🙂 I’m actually looking forward to my next visit & if you knew what I was having done you’d argue that’s impossible! Can’t recommend this place enough!

Dr. Saeghi is a fantastic dentist. I’ve been a loyal patient for years and this is my “forever” dentist. He is always honest and explains what procedures are needed and why. He also makes suggestions for improvements, should you be interested, and clearly states all options. He is very knowledgeable about advances in dentistry and improved treatments. The staff is wonderful! They even have a sweet service dog for patients that might need some calming support.

I moved to the West Hills area recently and I went to Modern Age Dentistry for my annual checkup and brought my elderly mother with me.  Her mouth has been terribly neglected for years, and she is scared of most dentists.  Dr. Saeghi was very gentle with her, and she wasn’t afraid to come back for several more visits, she has severe infection which caused her really bad breath and embarrassment.  After several treatments, she is now smiling with her new dentures and completely free of bad breath.   The staff is very friendly and the office is very modern and beautiful.  I was able to get appointments easily.  In short,  I highly recommend this doctor and office.

The best dentist I’ve ever come across. Dr. Ali Saeghi was very gentle and caring. I have always been afraid of dentist but he made me feel so comfortable, even wiped my tears when I was crying from being so nervous before the procedure. He was so gentle that I didn’t even feel the needle when he did the anesthesia. He took time to explain what I needed and stayed with me for a bit after the procedure to make sure I was okay. He has 2 therapy dogs that came by to comfort me (loved that) all the staff that helped me did a great job. I can’t remember the names but the dentist assistant who did my X-rays and assisted the Dr., did a great job, he was very friendly. The hygienist was also great, she gave me the best cleaning/polish ever and explain how to floss better and maintain healthy teeth. Overall, I’ve never felt so comfortable at a dentist office. I think I finally like going to the dentist. I highly recommend this place, I will not go anywhere else.

My sister was visiting me from out of town and had an emergency dental situation come up.  Dr. Saeghi’s office was the closest dentist office so we went there hoping her problem would be properly addressed.  Dr. Saeghi and his staff were kind and knowledgeable and took good care of my sister.  My sister, who has unfortunately had many dental issues and been to numerous dentists, said Dr. Saeghi was the best dentist she had ever seen!!  After that visit several years ago I left my dentist so I could start going to Dr. Saeghi.  I have never regretted that decision.  Everyone at this office is so friendly and welcoming and knows their stuff!  Leslie, Mindy, Samantha, and all the hygienists have been great!  So happy I found this wonderful dentist and his staff!!

Such a friendly and welcoming staff here at Modern Age Dentistry! When I first pulled up I wasn’t sure if I had arrived at the right place. They turned a little house into a dentist office and it’s genius. It doesn’t have that stale traditional feeling most dentist offices have, partially because of the layout of the dentist office being in a home and partially because the staff is personable it makes you feel like you’ve been going there for ages. Dr. Saeghi is great at telling you exactly what’s going on with your teeth and how he’s going to fix them. They offer easy financing and give you their professional opinion as to what should be most priority. MAD is the only dentist I will go to from here on out.

Right here in Ojai state of the art dentistry!  I went in for the $99 special in 2013.  Then family emergencies happened and I wasn’t able to return for the work he recommended until 2015.   He is a very gifted dentist.  His staff worked with me in explaining what was happening to a tooth with an old filling (25 year old filling).  He honored my resistance at having a root canal, yet was honest about what might be the options once he removed the old filling and got to actually see what was underneath. Tooth saved!  No root canal!   The best part is that he is right here in Ojai and will do extractions, root canals (if absolutely necessary) and not send his patients to Ventura for these procedures. You get what you pay for and the front desk staff worked with me until we figured out how I was going to pay…all the while Dr. Saeghi kept his focus on my dental health.

I have been greatly impressed by the professional and helpful attitude in this dental office, but MOST OF ALL by the skill of Dr. Saeghi.  Not only did he do such an immensely more successful job of diagnosing the problems in my mouth than any other dentist I’ve seen in 20 years, but the way he solved the problems was top-notch and painless.  I’m sending all my friends to this man.  Thank you, Dr. Saeghi!

It’s to bad when people don’t want to believe what a dentist or hygienist diagnosis their periodontal or dental stage is.  I recognize that most people cannot read x-rays or feel when something is going wrong with a tooth or gums because there is no pain, no obvious sign or symptom.  It’s sad that some people that have gone to this office are so quick to try to lay the blame of their own lack of care for their mouth either at home and/or getting in for cleaning visits with a hygienist.  I have had nothing but the best and most thorough care ever with Dr. Saeghi and his wonderful staff.  I will never go anywhere else.  I am aware that Dr. Saeghi is always staffed with the most caring of people.  Unless you have walked in his shoes maybe you shouldn’t throw stones for seeing new faces when you come in sometimes.  After all, didn’t you know he has more than one office in more than one location where good, hardworking, caring people that Dr. Saeghi trusts to be at any one of his offices.  If you want honesty, unsugarcoated diagnosees, and the best of care you would be wise to choose Modern Age Dentistry and Dr. Saeghi.

At Modern Age Dentistry staff are friendly and professional. Doctor Saeghi, Who I know for more than 20 years, Is the doctor that works on your teeth and not just any doctor. He always uses the highest quality material. I must say a crown he did for me over 20 years ago is still there without any problems. They also have several options for payment including credit that people could apply for which makes it simple and affordable for the patient. Modern Age Dentistry also has 3 offices that makes it conveniently accessible for almost anyone that lives in Los Angeles area. Dr. Saeghi uses the latest technology and evidense to take care of his patients. I don’t go anywhere else.

Exceptional staff from the front to back office. Hygienist is phenomenal caring gentle and patient. Dr. Saeghi really cares and will do whatever it takes to make sure you fully understand what you need and where you are with your dental care. The entire staff is caring loving kind compassionate gentle and the best part Princess their therapy dog makes it all worth visiting. I had major anxiety and fear about going to the dentist and now I look forward to going. I can’t rave enough BEST DENTAL PRACTICE EVER!

I have always been scared going to the dentist office…. till I stepped in to Dr. Saghei’s office. His staff is very attentive, sweet, and on top of everything, They are very helpful with making you feel comfortable, qualities like that just shows us the patient that they truly care. Dr. Saghei himself makes you feel very at ease, tell you everything that needs to be done, and explains during the procedure what is being done, that way their are no surprises.  I have always been scared of the numbing shot, and I must say his hands are amazing, you don’t feel anything, he guides you through it all. I am very very very happy that thanks to my husband who has been going to Dr. Saghei forever told me about him.

What a great experience! The staff is simply INCREDIBLE! At first I was very scared to have my wisdom teeth removed but Dr. Saeghi was so informative and caring. Not only did he help me overcome my fear of dentistry, he also helped me improve my overall health by helping me eliminate the infection in my mouth. I have not only become a loyal patient but have encouraged my family and friends to switch as well. After seeing how well the dentist interacts with my child, I am overjoyed we have fInally found our family dentist. We are very happy with the dentist, hygienist, and staff here at Modern Age Dentistry. Thank you for the amazing smiles on my family’s faces!!

I had been avoiding the dentist for quite some years now. I just never had the time nor money to go in and see what was going on in my mouth. So like most others, i threw it on the back burner. Until, i woke up with this throbbing pain in my mouth. I knew i needed to see a dentist ASAP!! I called around to numerous dental offices, to see if i could get squeezed in for an appointment. Many of the dental offices could not get me in for days, until i called Dr.Saeghi’s office. They understood my pain, and got me in the same day. They were very accomodating and friendly. Dr. Saeghi was very professional and educated me on the importance of keeping my teeth healthy. He took care of the pain i was experiencing and the tooth that needed an emergency extraction. I’ve recovered and will be doing the rest of my treatment with Dr.Saeghi. Thanks for being a great Dr. and staff.

Dr. Saeghi has been my dentist (and my husband’s) for some time now and we are thrilled with him, his work and his entire office.  I had an emergency situation last weekend and he went above and beyond what any dentist has ever done and I feel that I am in really good hands.  His entire staff makes a great team.  Dr. Saeghi, Leo who assists him, Wendy who handles the insurance billing and Lisa who handles the appointments and confirmations.   Dr. Saeghi does excellent work, explains everything that is being done very well, is a genuine nice man, has good modern equipment and everything is as clean as it should be. In all the years that I have had other dentists, I have never felt this good about my dentist.  I highly recommend him!!!!!

I came into the office because I heard about this promotional deal they were offering… exam, cleaning, bleaching at a great price.  Everyone was really kind and professional. I had been going to the same dentist my whole life, but my gums have been bleeding for sometime and my breath seems abnormally foul. My current dentist had no reasonable explanation and said I’m always keeping up with cleaning appts. so there can’t be anything wrong… thought that was fishy.   They took x-rays, which I was bummed about because I had current ones at my other office, but could not retrieve a copy, so I understood why they needed to take more.  Also taken were what seemed like 100’s of photos of the inside of my mouth.  I thought “Is this really necessary?”  Come to find out, yes it was, it was very clear to me that my gums did not look happy when compared to healthy pics. I was quite upset, feeling betrayed by my own family dentist for years.  I was told by Dr. Saeghi that I had bone loss, it was called “poriodental disease” (sp?) something like that.  I questioned the diagnosis and Dr. Saeghi explained to me that many dentists avoid telling their patients about the bone loss because it scares people b/c nobody wants to hear they have “bone loss”.  He also showed me pics of regular bone height and loss of bone, it all made sense. I had to get a “deep cleaning”… which is quite pricey, but it’s been one month and my mouth doesn’t bleed anymore and I have great breath.   I wanted to wait to write a review til I saw real results.  Finding a good dentist is hard, but it is very important to find the right one.  Afterall I couldn’t even trust my long time family dentist. You will be treated well here.

I went to Dr. Saeghi’s Dental office in Ojai after recieving their postcard in the mail.  When I called to make the appointment the person who answered the phone Diane was great.  She was very personable.  She made me feel comfortable right away.  And they were able to get me an appointment the next week. When I arrived I was greeted by Susie and Diane who both introduced themselves and even offered me a cup of coffee.  They had a basket of apples in the front as well as water in the waiting area.  Very nice! I was very shortly taken back where the assistant, Mindy took my xrays.  She seemed very nice and talked about her kids and how my kids go to the same school.  This made the xrays go by faster.   Dr. Saeghi came in a few minutes later with Susie from the front.  He took digital picture of each tooth and explained what was going on with each tooth.  It had been many years since my last appointment with a dentist and I knew I needed some fillings.  Susie then came back with the information on the cost.  Which was very reasonable.  They had also checked my insurance and verified what my co-payments would. be.  I had not had this service before.   I then had my teeth cleaned by Gloria.  She was very gentle and did a great job.  I will be requesting her the next time.  She gave me some good information on how to floss correctly.   I was escorted to the front by Gloria who told me she enjoyed meeting me.  I paid my bill and I booked the filling appointment.  I am so happy to finally have a new dentist!

I never change dentists if I can help it, but I’m old enough to have had care from several over the years. They’ve all been good, but I would say Dr. Saeghi is the best yet. My family has been seeing Dr. Saeghi and his staff for as long as Modern Age Dentistry has been in Ojai. We trust him absolutely on all aspects of dental care. I had a chipped tooth fixed, new fillings and replacement filings. I’ve had new crowns and crown replacements with no pain, accurate color matching and careful fitting. They now have a crown-making machine that produces the crown while you wait. No temporary crown or second visit to fit the permanent. Most recently, I was fitted for a night guard to prevent my teeth from wear while I sleep. Dr. Saeghi spent a lot of time making sure it fit well in my mouth. It is reassuring that he spends extra time to ensure the filling, crown, or night guard is perfectly comfortable. The dental hygienists are excellent. After the cleaning, they give a thorough explanation of the areas that need work and review techniques so that I’m confident I can continue the care at home.

I moved a few years back and going to my old dentist became a real hassle. I really liked my old dentist so switching was something I was reluctant to do. I found modern dentistry because it was right down the street from my house. I have been going here for two years now. I have had Dr. Ali do a root canal, replace a 10 year old crown, and fill a few cavities.  The office is very nice, the staff is very friendly and helpful and they are open on Saturdays.   I literally just left his office right now (Saturday night at 7pm).  I had a crown come off (one that was done by my old dentist years ago) and I’m leaving on vacation for two weeks tomorrow. I called the office, they contacted Dr. Ali and he drove to the office to glue my crown back on a Saturday night and didn’t charge me. I see all these posts below from people who needed lots of dental work who hadn’t been to the dentist in forever, and chose him on a groupon. And when the dentist tells them they need to fix their tweeter grills they get mad and leave a bad review.   My wife has been going here for the same length of time as me and she has only had one cavity. He never tried to get her to do work she didn’t need as some of these other reviews state. I love this place.

I’ve been coming here for the last year after avoiding the dentist for a while (whoops). The staff is lovely and Dr S is great. They weren’t judgey about my hiatus, just professional and encouraging that i was getting on the right track. I also needed my wisdom teeth out and was super scared about it, but it went about as well as it could have. The procedure was quick and I was pretty much back to normal the next day, with only a little soreness the next few days. Highly recommend.

If I could give them 10 stars I would! I am that person that used to cry and  not sleep days before a dentist appointment. The last dentist I went to , the dental assistant had to hold my hand and calm me down. I have had so many bad experiences in the past. Dr  Ali Saeghi, Alina, Leo and Princess have all changed that for me. Dr is amazing and has a great hand for numbing my mouth. Leo and Alina are so friendly and put me at ease.. and I can’t say enough about their therapy doggy Princess, who i love to give rubs to! I am practically skipping to my appointments. Thank you all at Modern Age Dentistry!!! And very professional too!

I have to say I’m so confused by these other horrible reviews.  We also came to Dr. Saeghi through his whitening promotion but we were looking for a new dentist and we understood why he was doing the promo as he was looking for new clients in the Atwater neighborhood.  He was knowledgable, personable and straightforward.  As me, my husband and daughter all had seen the dentist regularly, none of us had any horrible news from him…I had one filling, my daughter’s teeth were perfect and my husband ended up with a deep cleaning which is something every dentist he has ever seen has prescribed.  End of story.   We’ve been going there now for a year and a half and I can’t think of one negative thing to say (unless you don’t like going to the dentist on Wednesday or Saturday which is the only days the Atwater office are open).  Everyone is super nice, my teeth are great and Dr. Saeghi actually seems like he cares.  They also take my insurance.  Doesn’t get any better than that.  I am perplexed.

I moved to silver lake Atwater a year ago after using a dentist in Santa Monica for 15 years. I was really freaked out at starting out with a new dentist but found Dr. Saeghi to be professional highly skilled and to have an incredible bedside manner. I have been thrilled to have found an excellent dentist in Atwater Village and would highly recommend him. He also helped me with a new bite guard as opposed to the old archaic rusty one that I had before.  He explained to me the need to have a certain type of bite guard would be most effective.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Saeghi for about a year and a half now and my dental health is better than ever. He is really cool and always makes me feel comfortable and at ease. He has a special knack for choosing quality awesome staff. Everyone in the office is wonderful. They have all the modern equipment and the office itself is clean and up to date. I’ve had everything from wisdom teeth removal, fillings, & a root canal and it’s always done quick and correctly. I even had a crown from start to finish in the same visit! I trust Dr. Saeghi and his staff to do everything right the first time.

I never change dentists if I can help it, but I’m old enough to have had care from several over the years. They’ve all been good, but I would say Dr. Saeghi is the best yet. My family has been seeing Dr. Saeghi and his staff for as long as Modern Age Dentistry has been in Ojai. We trust him absolutely on all aspects of dental care. I had a chipped tooth fixed, new fillings and replacement filings. I’ve had new crowns and crown replacements with no pain, accurate color matching and careful fitting.

After the cleaning, they give a thorough explanation of the areas that need work and review techniques so that I’m confident I can continue the care at home.

My favorite dentist’s office! I am always greeted by my first name and engaged in conversation by the ladies at the reception desk, making me feel very welcome. The hygienists are very good at what the do and are always pleasant. Dr. Saeghi is very skilled and is clearly well liked by his staff. Thanks for the great service!
