PATIENT REVIEWS

Montecito Town Dental Group is awesome.  I was so nervous about my two root canals that I started crying.  I had at least 3 of the staff come in and comfort me and put me at ease, along with the doctor who gave me all the novicane I needed to not feel a thing.  The staff is considerate, personable and is receptive to any questions or concerns you may have.  I am actually looking forward to going back for my next cleaning in a couple of months

I have had years of dental issues, yes mostly due my own fault. At any rate it was time to have the ten or so teeth that were cracked or broken finally taken out. I had went to other dentist and they kept trying to “save” them, by the time i would get back in again another was bad. I had enough of it all and just want to opt for dentures. Finally found a place that didn’t want to milk my insurance until there was nothing left to actually do some meaningful work. Within a couple weeks i was scheduled and the dentures made. The oral surgeon was awesome. Dentist were awesome, technicians were awesome. One complaint I might have is they have this check in system that is electronic. I’ve spent the whole time I’ve been writing this review trying to find out when my follow up appointment is, I would suspect there would be a way to access that from the web site instead of hanging on the phone for 30 minutes of elevator music but couldn’t find it. To me that’s digging to the bottom of the barrel to find a complaint. Overall ecstatic.

I’ve had a great experience with this dental group. They have the latest technology and all of the people that I dealt with were friendly and helpful. Dr. Callaway and Holly were very professional and kind and the front desk girls are wonderful. I had a thorough cleaning  done with some laser treatments and then I had a crown made while I waited. I highly  recommend everyone who worked on me and think they’re a great group.

I have neglected my check ups and cleanings for way too long and Dr Calloway made me feel SO comfortable and unjudged for this. Lisa did my cleaning and I don’t think I’ve had a better one EVER! They also fixed a crown that had come loose and then broke in A VERY timely manner. I have been going to this office for years (as well as my three adult children) and we will NEVER switch to anywhere else! I HIGHLY recommend them!!

I was new to the area, broke a tooth and needed in a crown. Went to a well advertised chain dental practice and after 2 1/2 hours left with my still broken tooth. I felt so uneasy there – didn’t trust them – not a good experience. A friend sent me to Dr Calloway’s practice and they agreed to see me. Less than 2 hrs later I walked out with a new crown and an appt for exam, cleaning etc. Very professional staff, through explanations provided and I felt safe that I was in good hands and everyone was very friendly!

First time at Montecito was a very enjoyable experience. I don’t know anyone who enjoys or looks forward to go see the dentist. After being at Montecito Dental I can safely say I will definitely be going back for another cleaning without any trepidation! I wish I could remember everyones names but the two people who stood out were the Dental Assistant Holley and Dr. Callaway. Both of them were extremely nice and caring to talk to in a place where you normally dont want to be. This was by far the best dental experience I had ever had. Montecito Dental has some really high end technology. My teeth didn’t need to see all the tools and tricks they had to offer but from what I saw once I entered the door they had an poster for Computer Aided Design (CAD) teeth for tooth replacements? I definitely didn’t see anything like that in my last dental office. Highly recommended

We’ve been coming here since late last year. The Tina and Lisa are there to greet and get you started. Dr. Calloway is fantastic. The rest of the staff take the utmost care and are concerned about your needs. They are concerned about your dental health and are ready to provide long term care. They are also willing to work with you. Taking care of the patient is the highest priority. My children do not dread the visit… Kids comfortable at the dentist office, what a concept!

This review isn’t for services done, since we haven’t signed up for that yet. But it’s for their kindness on a Saturday when we couldn’t get anyone else to get us in! My partner has terrible tooth pain that is keeping him up at night and when we called I asked the receptionist if they accepted walkins. She said they didn’t have availability today, so since some of these places have partnerships with other places I asked if she knew any other place that might be open on a Saturday. (I had called several places already and was running out of options.) She said no, but wouldn’t want anyone suffering so she checked with the doctor and they were able to get us in! She made it very clear that no work would be done due to timing but at least we could get an idea of what it is and some prescriptions. We didn’t care, anything at this point would help! So that’s exactly what happened. The doctor said he needed a root canal and crown. He needed to see that dental expert because she admitted she wasn’t a root canal expert. We appreciate the transparency. The receptionist, Angela, then let us know pricing. It’s around $2700. But we dont have insurance so if you sign up for their discount plan you could bring it down to around $2200 and they have interest free payment plans too. We haven’t booked it but he really appreciates this office. They care!

I came to Montecito as a new patient for a general check up and cleaning and I’m so happy I found this office. From the start of checking in the staff was nice. I filled out my personal information online before arriving so the check in was a breeze and it’s all digital so no paperwork and pen needed! The assistants were very clean and wiped and sanitized everything as we finished along with X-rays which made me feel very comfortable. Dr.Callaway was wonderful and took the time to listen to all my concerns and gave me the best advice with home care routines and products I use for my teeth. The treatment coordinator explained all the treatment I needed and CO pays in a straight forward manner and was super informative. I appreciated all the staffs professionalism here and the knowledge they carried. I will definitely be continuing to use this office for all my follow up treatment. Thank you Montecito!!

Overall my dental visit was amazing, but this review is specifically for the dental assistant I believe her name is Shauna. My husband told them in advance about my dental anxiety, and they were more than accommodating when dealing with me. Especially Shauna, she was caring and made sure I was comfortable. She really set the tone for my visit. What an amazing person who seems like she really loves her job. I wish I could remember my dentist name it was my first time seeing her but she was awesome as well. I’m still dental anxious but I’m not that scared to go back here.

Montecito Dentist was super welcoming, friendly, thorough, and financially considerate when discussing orthodontics. I’ve always been told to floss and its importance, but the dentist here went into detail as to why, and even discussed the future of not flossing, which is (technically) poor hygiene. Liza Reyes was excellent in her customer service skills. She is professional, funny, cared about my smile and made sure my experience was genuinly a great one…and it was! I highly recommend Montecito Dentist!

From the front desk to the folks taking the x-rays and doing the cleanings and the doctors themselves – this place is the absolute BEST for me and my two kids. They remembered the trip to Disneyland my kids had been talking about at the last visit! They are very considerate when it comes to cost as well and are willing to work with you to get you the care that you need. I think everyone should go here to know what going to the Dentist CAN and SHOULD be as an experience. Thank you to this awesome Team! 🙂

I truly don’t understand any negative reviews for this place. Like what more do you want from going to the dentist? My first experience here was an emergency visit after being in extreme pain from an infected wisdom tooth. They got me in immediately and scheduled me to get them removed. I have never been put under and was terrified, but it couldn’t have been a better experience. It was super quick and I wasn’t in a lot of pain. I’ve since come for a cleaning and again, a great experience. The staff is super friendly, anything that my insurance hasn’t covered was very clearly explained beforehand and it’s a clean office. I highly recommend!

Been going here for 3 years now, I had just moved here at the time & had nothing but bad experiences with the Dentist I had gone to in Vegas, a crown had fallen off (that a previous dentist from another Dental place put on) so I called Montecito Town Center, and they got me in the next day, I have been going there every since, since then I’ve had deep cleaning & now annual checkups & cleaning, I’ve had two gum surgeries & no bad experiences whatsoever with any of these procedures, Dentist, Periodontist or hygienists, I’m so happy I finally found a good Dental place with professionals that are not only good at what they do, but very caring as well.

I had a great experience here. I went for my initial appointment, and they did a quick filling on my teeth and scheduled me for a deep cleaning, where they were going to use a laser! Laser on my teeth, bro I didn’t know about that. I went back in today, and got the deep cleaning done by Lisa who was freaking awesome. Great attitude, she put me at ease right away. Seriously had me laughing through the whole thing (no easy feat with water, a suction tube and dental tools in my mouth either!) This place is great and I would definitely recommend!

This office has always been amazing. Today they went above and beyond. My 10 year old daughter has been a patient for 3 years and while on vacation she fell and broke 2 permenant teeth. I was terrified about long term damage, cosmetics, and cost. The office worked her in, worked with our insurance, worked out a payment plan for us, and did an AMAZING job fixing her teeth. They walked me patiently through each step and treated my daughter carefully & with extreme kindness. She’s so happy that you can’t see the damage anymore, which is a pretty big deal to a little girl. This office has the most wonderful and considerate staff and dentists. By far the best place for dental care we’ve ever encountered.

I have been a patient at Montecito Town Center Dental for a few years now. The office personnel is always friendly and welcomes you with a warm smile. Aaron Radmall is my dentist and is always nice and genuinely seems to care about his patients. The hygienists are friendly and efficient. I have never had to wait to long to be seen and my procedures never seem to take too long either. The dentist is not my favorite place, and I have “soft” teeth so its imperative to keep up with my dental care. The staff makes me feel comfortable… in a not so comfortable environment. I have had fillings, a bridge and cleanings at this location. I am confident in my recommendation of this office.

We have been going to Dr. Callaway for years. The front office staff was so accommodating with scheduling my family together. My son loves visiting the dentist. Today, we took my 2 year old daughter for her first visit. From the moment we stepped in the door, the entire staff made it such a wonderful experience for us. My daughter was scared of the new experience, but Dr.Callaway and her assistant Hedi helped to make her right at home. Hedi even rewarded her with a balloon for being so brave. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this office. I refer everyone I know to Montecito. Thank you Dr. Callaway and staff for the excellent care!

My son has been going to the orthodontist there for a little over a year.  They’re always helpful, professional and friendly.  I like that they are a one stop shop, so to speak…dental, orthodontist and more so I started using them for my dental needs.  Over this past weekend I lost a crown.  I called on Monday and they fit me in for an emergency appointment.  Within a few hours I had a new crown and was good to go.  They even gave me a discounted rate because I lost my job a few months back and lack insurance.  Great service, great staff

I had my first visit to the dentist in many years at Montecito Town Center Dental. I can’t begin to tell you what a fantastic place this is. Everyone from the receptionist on up was more than friendly and very helpful. My dentist Dr. Callaway-Nelson was the absolute best! It felt like visiting with an old friend. She explained everything in plain english so I could fully understand my dental health. This probably sounds bizarre but I’m actually looking forward to my next appointment. Too bad its so far away! I seriously recommend this office to any and everyone!!!

I had my first experience with this dental office on11/21/11. Everyone was extremely nice and personable. It had been 4+ years since I had been to a dentist and they didn’t make me feel horrible about that. We discussed a plan for getting me back in shape and I feel very comfortable with their pricing. Holly and Dr Callaway were wonderful and upbeat. I recommend these folks to anyone who just isn’t happy with their current dentist and to those who are “afraid” of going to the dentist.

This was the best dental experience I have had yet! I’ve always had anxiety with going to the dentist- absolutely terrified of the pain and embarrassment. The team at Montecito Town Center Dental completely put me at ease! They are all extremely professional, but so incredibly nice from the beginning to the end of your appointment. They made me an appointment w/ in the same week that I called (I’ve never gotten an appt that fast from any type of doctor). From the moment I checked in at arrival, I only waited about 5 minutes in the waiting room. They explained everything clearly, from insurance to procedures. They were as gentle as they could be so I experience little to no pain. The doctor didn’t try to sell me up on anything , just explained what I needed (I thought I needed a root canal & crown, but all he said I needed was just a half crown). He didn’t push everything on me at once, but recommended I break up everything I needed (which I came in knowing I needed a lot) into a few appointments so it’s less discomfort for me. I found their prices to be the same as any other dentist. I’m sure there are places who have cheaper prices, but you get what you pay for- horrible service and waiting for an hour before you go back. I don’t mind paying for excellent service and good use of my time (and I only have a dental discount plan, so I was paying mostly out of pocket). If you are looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Montecito Town Center Dental. You’ll get fantastic care and service!

I had a VERY pleasant experience at Montecito Town Center Dental. I have always hated going to the dentist but with montecito town center I want to go back. Everyone there was extremely nice and treated you as if you were a friend and not more money in their pockets. I feel very confident with what they did and told me. Dr. Callaway has got to be one of the best dentists that I have ever seen. All of their equipment is up to date and super high tech and I was shocked at how much things have changed. When I walked into the office I went back right away so there was no waiting in the lobby and never had to wait more then 1 minute for the Doctor or anything else once in the back. I have already told everyone that I have seen that they need to go here.

My entire family goes here. That’s 5 of us. The gentleness, knowledge, and care this staff has is unbelievable! They never push anything on you. They ask you what you want to do. Everything is open and clear. We’ve seen many different dentist, dental assistants, and one orthodontist and no one has ever dissapointed. I am incredibly blessed to have found this place. Go here. You won’t regret it!

Waking up in pain from an abcessed tooth, I was desperate to find a dentist I could get into as soon as possible near my home. Well, “I hit the jackpot” when Anna answered the phone(7:30 am) and told me to come right in. Anna was so accomodating and sweet and eager to do whatever she could to help me. When I arrived I also interracted with Paul and Tina, who were every bit as wonderful as Anna. I felt like I had been there a hundred times before. I was treated like an old friend, not a new patient. Thank you Anna, Tina and Paul–I appreciate you!! Dr. Calloway and her assitants were also incredibly wonderful. Believe it or not, my visit “to the dentist” that morning made me very happy…….I have found a wonderful dentist and some new friends.

Love this dental office! I had to get an onlay done (similar to a crown) and I hadn’t eaten much so I showed up starving – what happens when you have kids and forget what food is, haha! Moriah, my hygienist, was so sweet and asked if I wanted a fig bar that she had in her locker. If it wasn’t for her I would’ve been so hungry and uncomfortable for the next 2 hours. Thank you Moriah! You’re the best! All the staff here is so friendly and makes each visit pleasant (even though going to the dentist is the worst ever).

They are incredible. From the second u walk in until the second u leave. No one enjoys the dentist. But I laughed through most of it. The dentist I saw was honest, and fairly gentle during my cleaning (considering I had some tough areas) the hygienist X-ray tech assistant and front desk were also lovely. They are also willing to work with you financially to make sure u are comfortable in what you are spending. My teeth feel so clean and sparkly and I’m looking forward to using my new mouth guard. All in all I will def be using them for anything teeth related while I’m living in Vegas

My husband and I have just started coming here since our insurance had changed. The group here at Montecito Dental is absolutely fantastic. The front desk is always in a good mood, as well as the staff and doctors. They are all very helpful in answering any and all questions you may have. I had a surgery here to remove my wisdom teeth that were not growing in properly. After about a week, I was still in a lot of pain. I called to see if I could get an earlier appointment (one before my post op was scheduled for) and they booked me later that same day. They deep cleaned my teeth and the open pockets. I was in so much relief after my visit! I am so thankful. You can really tell that patient care comes first here.

I having been taking my sin there for his braces I love there staff always happy and moving fast a couple of times the wait was very long but I understand sometimes your under staff or the patient before needs more work then they thought but they always let me know if there running behind my son’s braces are coming along great thank you

My experience here was spectacular! I had a great and positive experience with everyone down the line starting with my dentist Dr. Callaway, her assistants Kiki and Krissy, my benefit coordinator Wilda who helped me with my payments and everyone else I had the pleasure of meeting in this office while getting my procedure done. The staff was so friendly and nice they always kept me laughing. I would recommend this office to anyone because of the wonderful experience I had here that made me feel comfortable and informed about my dental health!

Professional and personable staff with a very nice individual touch. No one acts like a robot but they move a speak efficiently with no time wasted while giving you amazing individual care. Highly recommend. Especially the X-ray tech. She was amazing going above and beyond. I have been going here for 3+ years and will continue to.

For the first time in a VERY long time I enjoyed my visit to the Dentist! Dr. Calloway, Krissy, and the front office staff Brandon, Aylene and Liz were all very personable and professional. I highly recommend this office for your dental care. What I appreciated most was the extra time Dr. Calloway took in explaining what she recommended in terms of my dental care and that she got to know me and not just my teeth. Much appreciated!

I love this dentist office so much! Dr. Johl and dianna are great, so nice and informative. I knew what was happening each step of the way. He was so careful to make sure that the root canal was successful, I never doubted that it would be. Because this office is so amazing I was able to have the permanent crown put on while still numb which saved me a ton of time. Dr Callaway put the crown in so fast it felt like she and Brittany were a NASCAR pit crew. I recommend this office to everyone who hates time “in the chair” as they make you feel so at ease.

This dental clinic is military dependent friendly. They accept the United Concordia insurance. They set up your appointments which are also sent via email. A reminder call is provided a few days prior to your scheduled appointment. The staff is very knowledgeable and have great customer service. The clinic is well taken care of. Up to date systems, iPads for clinic check in and spacious for multiple guest. The children’s area is clean and safe. There is a play station with G Rated games. I really love this dental clinic ad recommend all military families residing in the north centennial hills area use these clinic. The doctors are always on time and never keep the patients waiting. They explain everything in regard to the patient to you and encourage you to ask questions. This place is worth the trip!!

Although the dentist is not a place that people consider fun, this office makes it as close as humanly possible. Be patient, no pun intended, they are working through a new check in system. The front desk staff is almost always friendly and very knowledgeable. The pricing is competitive. And they send specials, discounts on services. I particularly like the fact that there is a charity component in the office, like supporting a clean water project in a remote location. Specifically, my hygienist (Jenelle) is the best. She gives me advice on how to improve my dental health. And Dr Calloway is amazing! Both these ladies are gentle and take time to get to know you and make sure you understand the process/procedure. I can’t think of anyone else I would trust with my chompers. Kudos!
