★★★★★

Unfortunately, due to a golfing accident in college years ago, I have had dental issues. I have seen many dentists over the years. At this time I feel as though I can finally trust a dentists with the knowledge and patience to complete the dental work from decades of incompetence. I have had many consultations with many local dentists and the fees have all been at least double the fee estimate of Dr. Maali. The cost is hardly the reason for my choice. I wasn’t rushed or pressured to do all the work at one time. The hygienist were gentle and thorough. My daughter and family have the perfect smile and I would only trust them to someone who gives me the best service and care. I look forward to every visit and can’t wait until i have completed the work to having a perfect smile. Don’t take my word see for yourself! Vonda H Real Estate Broker

They were able to get me in due to a cancellation at 4pm on a Monday. The dental assistant, Hilda, was expectional and handled me with kid gloves due to the pain in my mouth. Dr. Maali saw me soon after and carefully evaluated my issue. The procedure he suggested meant he would have to stay late as well as Hilda. He took his time, made sure I was numb/comfortable, and completed the procedure. Today is the next day and I feel 200% better. I’ve always feared going to the dentist and every visit I’ve had with the team and Dr. Maali has made me feel comfortable and taken care of my issues. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I am new to town, and picking a new dentist can be an agonizing decision, BUT IN THE CASE OF SAND LAKE DENTAL, I am so happy to have found Dr Maali and his wonderful staff. They not only have all the newest technology but have a very professionally run office, AND they still have time and interest in giving personalized attention. I highly recommend Dr Maali and his staff, and thank them all very much for making my appointments pleasant and giving me A+ results!

I have been going to Sandlake Dental for a few years now and would not change it for the world. Dr. Maali is the kind of dentist that would make you WANT to see the dentist, very kind, caring and understanding. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ana, the dental hygienist. She is kind, gentle but still gets the work done. I continue to recommend this place always.

★★★★★

Absolutely amazing experience for a new patient consultation. To say that I was nervous about going would be a severe understatement, due to some issues I’m having and horrible experiences with my 2 previous dentists. From the moment I walked in…even just the experience at the front desk, the care given was phenomenal. It never stopped. Even the process how they break down your care plan was so much better than anything I’ve ever experienced. Every member of staff I encountered was just great – the front desk, hygienist, Dr. Maali – all so welcoming and comforting. If you’ve been putting off going to the dentist…do yourself a favor. Make an appointment here!

Dr Maali is the best! He was recommended by 3 people at work. We’ve also been there on the same day emergency. We very quickly moved our entire family to this great dentist. Best dentist in Dr. Phillips\South Orlando for a while. The doc has a very kind and calm energy – I highly recommend him. His whole office staff is very awesome. — Update: co worker needs a dentist for emergency replacement of crown. Of course office comes through! Thanks Dr Maali and Sand Lake Dental Our family has been seeing him for years.

First, I found out about Sandlake Dental through these great reviews on here and on their website. Everyone’s positive reviews really helped me in selecting a great dentist here in Florida. Thank you for your reviews! Dr. Maali and his staff were so friendly from the first phone call all the way through to the end of my first visit. I plan on going back. As someone who has been in and out of hospitals as a child and has a slight fear of going to any doctor in general, their gentle nature helped to reassure me that everything will be okay and they would take good care of me. I really appreciated that. So to Dr. Maali and his staff thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

I found Sandlake Dental by researching on the internet . They have good google and yelp reviews so I decided to make an appointment. The office is clean, and the staff is nice, friendly and professional. I did not feel like I was receiving less care due to the fact I did not have insurance. The best part is that they offer dental insurance for an entire year for only $153 that includes free exam/X Rays as well as discounts for other services. I went in and Dr. Maali explained all my options, suggested the best approach for the results I was looking for and I was provide the entire breakdown of pricing to help me make the best decision for myself. I’m glad I found Sandlake Dental and would definitely recommend them to others!

We would travel a long way to see Dr Maali and his incredible staff. Have never encountered such a caring dentist. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and the work done is amazing! Special thanks to Hilda for looking after me so well! Thank you so much for your first rate service Dr Maali, you and your staff are the absolute best!

I am from the uk and whilst on vacation in orlando, I was in agony with a snapped tooth. My husband found DR maali in one of our vacation booklets. I have to say he is an awsome dentist.Nothing was any trouble for him,even with it being a sunday. I am so grateful for what he done for me that day, as I could enjoy the rest of my time in orlando being pain free. The dentists we have back in uk are rubbish compared to DR maali. Would deffo reccommend this dentist..without any hesitation 🙂

★★★★★

This is the best dental office I have ever been to. The dental hygienist I had, Jamie, was amazing and very kind. The cleaning was quick and painless and she was extremely knowledgable, answering every question I had thoroughly. Dr. Maali came in after my cleaning and gave recommendations for the future. The entire process was very efficient. I highly recommend this office and am looking forward to my next appointment.

Dr. Maali and his staff were phenomenal. From quick scheduling to the painless dental work, Sand Lake Dental is the best dental office I’ve been to. I get anxious visiting the dentist and Dr. Maali made the experience so comforting. I didn’t feel a thing during the entire dental procedure. I would definitely recommend Dr. Maali to anyone!

When you have a childhood dentist, that’s all you’ve known so why fix it if it’s not broke? Well unfortunately wasn’t happy with my last few visits that were quite painful. Long story short was referred out to an Endodontics and they couldn’t squeeze me in for a build up and was atleast a week out and I needed to do it before going out of town since two root canals on each side would of been difficult to eat. So the search begun for a new dentist and in today’s day and age great reviews are a dime a dozen! Read through many reviews and called upon the most genuine “seeming” ones. Called around noon so figured lunch time left a detailed message and sure enough Cindy called me back. What amazed me was she referred back to the message ( usually no one does this and you have to RE-explain everything!) better yet she was able to squeeze me in next day and verified my insurance. So at this point they had a leg up, but I’m a still tough critic… So one of my favorite characteristics is transparency. From the front office to Dr. Maali they were very thorough with all explanations. And you feel a genuine sense that they look out for your well being as well! Peggy explains the billing and works with you, since I had a ton of dental work this year she was able to anticipate my limit and gave me a few options. They submitted the claim just in case it was approved and credited any extra to for future use. Glad I found this dental office

★★★★★

I would give them 6 stars if I could. I have had lifelong dental problems and have tried two other dentists since I moved to Orlando and both experiences left me feeling like an annoyance to the dentist and I was not made to feel comfortable at all. Everyone at Sand Lake Dental is seriously top notch from the front desk staff to the assistants to the dentist himself. Dr Maali is kind and understanding and I really cant say enough good things about them. If you are in the seaworld / dr phillips area this is the dentist to go to.

Melissa M. from Orlando, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Been in florida for over 20 yrs and dr maali is so far the best dentist I have found. The whole staff is great and makes you feel comfortable. There is a tv in the waiting rooms as well as where the dental chairs are. They do the x-rays right there in the same chairs as your cleaning that way you are not moving room to room. Cleaning time they put the bib on you and then sunglasses that way the water doesn’t go in your eyes. They explain your care to you and the dr sees you in every visit. I highly recommend the dentist and they get you in quick as well.

Jessica S. from Davenport, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been going to Dr. Maali’s office now for over 5 years. The entire team is awesome and takes service with a smile to a whole new level. Dr. Maali explains every procedure and step to the detail, and his staff helps with explaining the costs. Going for my 6 month cleaning is now a breeze ( and I used to hate going to the dentist). The entire team is patient, friendly and does really care about you as a person. I’ve been to other offices (e.g. Celebration Health) where I felt like a number and a cash cow (financing the doctor’s next Mercedes or other unnecessary gadget). I definitely recommend this dentist office!

K J. from FL, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

This dentist and his staff are amazing. I came here after a horrible experience with another dental office wanting to replace fillings that didn’t need to be replaced. Dr. Maali was honest with me and told me what his second opinion was. Needless to say, I will be a returning patient here. They take great care of you and have early/late days so that you can actually go in without having to take a day off of work.

From the very beginning everybody there was just so kind and friendly, trying to do their best to help me with everything I needed. I recommend this place to everybody, it´s really a very proffesional group of people and as I said, very kind (which I so much appreciate after having so many bad experiences in Czech republic). So YES, YES, YES … 🙂 Today I was there for my second time and OMG, I can´t express enough how nice and kind all of them have been to me. I so much recommend this place, I am 44 and I have never been to a better one ! I am very very honest. Thank you all the people there soooo much !!!

I had a very hard time finding a dentist when I moved to Orlando… UNTIL I FOUND THIS PLACE!!! Dr. Maali is an excellent dentist that is honest and straight forward. The front desk and assistants are respectful, sweet and efficient. At this point I have also brought my wife and daughter here with the same great results. The main reason to go to Sand Lake Dental is bedside manner. You’ll feel like they care.

Our family was lucky to find Sand Lake Dental. I wish i had found them earlier!  My two kids, that are now teenagers, absolutely love going to the dentist–which is unheard of!  Kids loving their dentist?!?!  Even if i move from this area, i would continue to visit them as they are the best!! Extremely professional, updated equipment and procedures, amazing treatments, friendly and cordial.  Highly recommended!

Steph W. from Kapaa, HI (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I moved to Orlando recently and tried one dentist (was not impressed at all) before finding Dr. Maali. EVERYONE at this practice is awesome. Friendly, kind, considerate, personable yet very professional. They make you feel special here, answer ALL questions and their work is impeccable. Their prices are reasonable and wait time is minimal.  One of the best dentist I’ve ever had! Thank you Dr, Maali!

Alisa W. from Orlando, FL (Source:Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Maali & his staff are wonderful! I had two filings. He let me know which step we were on which I, myself really appreciated. Nothing is worse then a dentist appointment that feels like it’s going to last forever…he was so gentle but quick! I left very pleased. Keep up the great work Sand Lake Dental!

Sand Lake Dental has been my favorite dentist for the past 5+ years. I’ve had various dentists growing up and living in the CFL area and can say with confidence this is one the best dental offices you can find. The front office staff are welcoming and super helpful, bending backwards on any requests you have. The dental hygienists are gentle and truly care about making your experience as comfortable as possible. Dr. Ziyad Maali’s chair side manner is excellent. He gives his undivided attention to you and answers any and all questions you have. I currently drive from 40+ minutes away to see this office because they are worth it.

★★★★★

Dr. Maali and his staff are as kind as they are capable. I’ve been a patient for over a year now and I’ve had wonderful experiences with the amazing front desk with their perfect system of appointment making / reminders / confirmation, thorough and gentle hygienists, and caring doctors who will spend time with you and listen to your concerns. At Sand Lake Dental, you are not on an assembly line, you are a cared for patient. I promise you that this staff cares for their patients. If you fear going to the dentist, then you should change your provider to Sand Lake Dental. They will put you at ease. Again, this isn’t just an office of accomplished professionals, it’s also an office of caring and empathetic human beings.

This rating only goes to five but I want to give them 10 stars. Wait a minute I want to give them another 10 stars making it 20.I cannot say enough about the office or the Doctor. From the moment we walk in, we were greeted in a warm and friendly manner  and felt very comfortable. When  the Dr. Maali came and looked at my wife’s teeth and said they can help and fix the problem. He did what my wife and I wanted but he also presented other options and there cost to us. But they did not make you feel that you were getting sub-par service for picking a lower cost solution. There cost are great and the service was the greatest I have seen.IN the days of not knowing or just not wanting help people unless your spending thousand of dollars,they were the most helpful and the most knowledgeable that I have found in some time. I have a  phobia about dentist that I have had all my life, but even I feel comfortable about going to this place and helping me . My wife and I will go to the rest of our life’s.

Thank you Dr. Maali!! I’ve been a patient at Sandlake Dental for over 6 years and it’s always been a perfect A+++ experience…sometimes we take great service for granted, but will write about and blog about our poor experiences :(…Today, I want to underscore a great dental office and commend them for being a great team – Today I would like to pause to just say thank  you Dr. Maali for always being an amazing dentist! .I’m not big on writing reviews and I’m certainly not big on visiting a dentist but I thought it was in order for me to take a moment to say thanks for your patience, professionalism and your dentistry skill…Also want to thank you for seeing me and calling me during my recent dental emergency melt down – it was my worst dental experience ever but thankfully I hand an office that could handle my dental turbulence and get me though it …I would highly recommend Dr. Maali and his team. Continue doing great – and remember Team Works makes the Dream Work…Sandlake Dental: Great Team making it happen…

Love going there. Dr. Maali is a wonderful dentist and extremely professional, and yet so sensitive to his patients. His staff friendly and always there to help- so, to those that say there was no one to answer a phone call, I have a piece of advise to give: go get a life…. Thank you, Dr. Maali and Staff, for taking care of me and my whole family. Ana Richoux

I am so grateful for the care that my husband & I have received from Dr. Maali and all of his staff at Sand Lake Dental. They are extremely capable, accommodating, communicative, and they make very serious dental procedures feel like a walk in the park. They seriously go above & beyond with all the services that they provide. Thank you to Dr. Maali, office staff & medical assistants!

I had an appointment this morning for a routine check up and cleaning and was VERY impressed! The staff and dentist were very friendly and efficient, and the office itself was very nice. I’ve never been to a dentist’s office with a TV above the chair to watch during cleaning, so that was a nice surprise and added bonus! I highly recommend this dentist.

Sandy S. from Orlando, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr Maali is really nice and helpful on what treatments needed to be done. The office first does a consultation on what services need to be done with an estimated price quote. Not many dentists do that and you get hit with a surprise bill at the end of the visit or later down the line. Dr Maali is also very caring with his patients. I once had an emergency visit and he fit me into his schedule that same day.

PAIN FREE EXPIERENCE!! No one hates the dentist more than I do! Meeting Dr. Maali and his staff had me comfortable when I was in my chair. Hearing his informative diagnosis on where my pain was coming from. I was able to expierence a much better & comfortable expierence than I ever had elsewhere. I recommend to all my friends and family!

Dr. Maali and all of his staff were friendly, professional, and efficient!!!! I was impressed when I called on a couple of occasions to verify my insurance and 2 different staff members were pleasant and helpful. When I arrived, all were friendly and his techs were also friendly and efficient. I had to wait a bit longer than I would have liked but when I met Dr. Maali he was thorough and took time to explain all the details and was able to immediately repair a chipped tooth!! I was very pleased with the results and will definitely recommend him to family and friends!!!

★★★★★

Dr. Maali and his staff are fantastic. I had gone to another dentist in the area who had a $50 coupon for a new patient exam and cleaning, and he told me I needed about $400 worth of dental work done. This was a big surprise because I take good care of my teeth and gums. I decided to get a second opinion from Dr. Maali after seeing their $39 new patient xrays and exam offer on his website. Dr. Maali is extremely friendly and professional. He did a thorough exam and told me my teeth do not need any work done on them. Some dentists are crooks, but Dr. Maali is an honest guy. He’s my new permanent dentist. Highly recommended.
