Smile Magic Dentistry

I am extremely pleased with my new crown! I had a challenging case and I am very grateful to Dr. Nazir for his great care to detail in fixing my smile. He included me in the whole process and it was very interesting to see him use cutting edge technology to create in essence 2 new teeth. He is kind and gentle and his staff was great too! I highly recommend him for your dental needs!

Ok, I was sedated for major dental work; surgical extractions, a crown, and some other stuff. Dr Ray is a pro and his staff works with you on finances. I paid less than expected. Like I said before, they are HONEST and PROFFESIONAL. I’m home now just after my surgical work. But I must say thier costs are far lower than ‘Cunning’, they are honest, and Dr Ray is the best in the business. And I have a couple more visits to get my mouth in order. Dr Ray does outstanding work. I am home now with Gause pads on one side of my mouth. No pain. That’s all I’ll say. Smile Magic. Really the best in the business. Go only there.

I have severe anxiety, especially related to dental visits. I needed a lot of work done in 2010 and was searching for a dentist who would understand my situation and help me receive the care that I needed. I found Smile Magic online, and I called on a Sunday (not expecting anyone to pick up the phone). Much to my surprise, not only did someone answer, but Dr. Nazir HIMSELF answered my call. I was living in Napa, CA, at the time, and after a great conversation with this extremely compassionate doctor, I drove all the way to Orange County (8 hours) to have a consultation. Dr. Nazir was genuinely concerned with my mental and physical well-​being, and together we decided that iv sedation would be the right path for me.
If you have anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, or any special circumstances, I highly recommend this dental staff. I didn’t go to the dentist for over 7 years because of many traumatic experiences, and I never thought I would be able to go. But now I completely trust Dr. Nazir and his staff to take care of me and make the experience as comfortable as possible. Also, they have state of the art equipment, including an X-​ray machine that eliminates the need for those annoying bite chips, and an HD camera that you can use to look at your teeth up close on a flat screen right in front of you! Amazing!
My favorite thing about the iv sedation is the strong amnesia effect. I literally do not remember anything after walking in the front door of the office. The numb feeling in my mouth from novocaine causes me to panic, so not remembering any of the procedure AND regaining my memory AFTER the numbing has worn off is essential to my mental stability. It has completely changed my life and it is worth the extra $$ for my sanity.
They are the absolute best at what they do!

Dr Nazir and his staff provide exceptional service. My wife and I have been going to his office over the last two years. He is honest, knowledgeable and a perfectionist. His training and experience speaks for itself.
His staff is professional, sensitive to patients comfort and also highly trained.
Once you come here, you probably won’t go to another dentist office. Thank you Dr Nazir and staff!

This review is long overdue. Dr Nazir has been my dentist for over 10 years. I can sincerely say, he is the most exceptional, well rounded and caring dentist around. I know I am in good hands as he has earned my trust — he has been highly consultative and takes quality time to explain things and he loves what he does. He is top notch at his profession, simply one of the best. I give a A+ on responsiveness. When he says call me anytime, he lives up to his promise. The phones get forwarded after hours to dr Nazir’s cell phone. I had an issue on a Saturday night. He was attending a funeral, still called me back within 10 minutes. He met me at the office later that night after the funeral and had his family with him! Not too many dentist are that devoted and caring to patients. I also appreciate how clean and modern the office is including the investments in the latest technology. It says a lot about the care and energy he places on his practice. The entire office staff is fabulous. You know if just feels right when you go there. I would highly recommend Dr Nazir and Smile Magic. It will be a sad day for many of us when he decides to retire!

Dr. Nazir is passionate about dentistry and it shows. He takes the time to truly explain whatever dental work needs to be done, and clearly outline any and all possible options. And unlike other dentists I’ve been to in the past, his work lasts! Finally, whether it’s a root canal, extraction or an implant — I’ve never had a moment’s discomfort at Smile Magic. And there’s something to be said for that! Thank you Smile Magic! Dana, Irvine

Crippling fear of dentists kept me from seeing one for years. I asked God to direct me to a dentist that would deal with my fears and take care of my teeth. I found him in Dr. Nazir. I am so very grateful and so relieved. I have no anxiety in going to see him and therefore, am able to see my future to include proper care of my teeth. He is gentle. He is concerned. He is patient and he is able to offer many different levels of sedation depending upon the patient’s need. Is it possible for me to say, «I love going to my dentist?!»

Let me start off by saying I am one of those people who hate going to the dentist. Big surprise, right? I suppose there aren’t too many people who enjoy it, but I never have positive experiences. I’ve wasted thousands of dollars on work that has me leaving the office in worse condition than when I first sat in their chair and subjected myself to this odd brand of consensual torture. I’ve been to over a dozen different dentists, had the same work done & redone & very few offices do I ever go to more than once.
That said, I’ve seen Dr. Nazir many times & I’m running out of teeth he hasn’t fixed. He is impressively skilled & refreshingly honest. He does not do work that doesn’t need to be done to pad the bill.
Smile Magic offers sedation dentistry which is popular among people who have sensitive gag reflexes, are adverse to experiencing pain, and/​or are resistant to novocain. While this aptly describes me, I declined this option for financial & logistical reasons. It’s not inexpensive & I drive up to 3 hours 1 way to their office, so I cannot have my ability to safely operate a motor vehicle compromised.
As a dentist, Dr. Nazir is extremely knowledgable, passionate & a perfectionist in all the right ways. As a man, he’s polite, friendly, considerate & personable. His work truly does speak for itself. Reliability is well worth the long drive.
I’ve had almost every basic dental procedure performed by Dr. Nazir including, several fillings & crowns, surgical extractions & and a full implant. I’m chewing on the right side of my mouth for the 1^st time in 6 years. The only way I will ever go to another dentist is if he retires (which I hope won’t happen for a while)
I can’t say my experiences have been pain free. In fact, many visits were quite painful, but it’s only fair to qualify this by reminding you, I opted out of sedation, & I prefer to suffer in silence for the purposes of expediency & because I don’t want my lips & tongue to be numb for 2 days. I’m sure Dr. Nazir would gladly numb me back up, but when questioned about my comfort, I lie. I think he’s onto me though. Occasionally, he’s hit me with a booster right about the time sensitivity returns. I’ve never been under the delusion that the Dentist is supposed to be fun & comfortable & it certainly is not, but it’s much more tolerable when I know I’m going to be leaving with a healthier mouth & enhanced chewing capacity.
This is not fly-​by-​night budget dentistry practice. I have no insurance & I pay for everything out of pocket. I’ve had very expensive procedures that are not easy to afford on my budget, but I have never felt ripped off or exploited with unnecessary work. Dr. Nazir makes a pointed effort to not only explain what needs to be done clearly, but his equipment arms him with the ability to show me so I can see for myself.
In light of all my previous dental experiences from other practices, the extent of work I’ve had performed by Dr. Nazir & my currently ability to use my teeth, I cannot give Smile Magic a higher endorsement, but there’s nothing «magic» about it. It’s simply a highly skilled & well educated Dentist, committed to his craft in an office of his own making with the most state-​of-​the-​art equipment available.

Dr. Nazir is a very nice, professional man who does great dental work. He doesn’t try to up sell a ton of services and he takes the time to show you what needs to be done. He is a great dentist!
However, this review is for his front office staff. After my cleaning today I went to the front to set up an appointment for future work I need done. I was under the impression that my insurance covered 100% of teeth cleanings once every 6 months. I was informed however that it was only 80% and my remaining bill was $ 67. No big deal, I understand it was my mistake about the insurance but I was surprised with how much it was. I asked about it and instead of explaining the whole insurance situation the lady was extremely rude snapping «what? You think $ 67 is expensive for dental work?» And «you should be lucky you even have insurance some people don’t» and finally «well your little sister was in here earlier and she paid with a credit card. Do you have a credit card??» With a lot of attitude and loud enough for the entire waiting room and staff to hear.
Now I’m on a budget, and $ 67 isn’t going to break the bank but honestly, had she explained the situation it would have been fine rather than snapping and embarrassing me in front of the entire office. I was flustered and humiliated and left in tears. I probably will be looking for a new place to get my dental work done from now on.
But again, the nurse, dental hygienist and doctor were extremely nice and professional. I recommend this place to anyone who is 100% sure what their insurance covers and have a lot thicker skin than me.

After so many year of looking for a dentist, I have found the one!!! Their amazing and do quality good work. sedation dentistry have been my salvation. I am no longer afraid of going to the dentist. Smile Magic is thee best. thank you so much dr. nazir.

I updated my review after going to Dr. Nazir for about a year now. I needed extensive work done because I was so terrified of dentists. I couldn’t be happier with the work Dr. Nazir has done. I actually look forward to going to the dentist! Everyone that I have witnessed coming in is treated like family. The staff is best and Dr. Nazir is amazing. I drive an hour and a half and I wouldn’t mind driving more if I needed. Don’t put off going to dentist because of fear because with advances in technology you no longer have to. I thank God I found such an amazing dentist who really cares. Not a lot of dentists do. Thanks Dr. Nazir.

This review is long overdue! I went to Smile Magic in April and was so amazed on how Dr. Nazir and his staff treated my husband and I. After years of complicated dental work, braces and surgeries I was beyond traumatized, I disliked knowing I had to go to the dentist and would get really nervous, but Dr. Nazir and his staff changed that. On my first appointment, Dr. Nazir sat with us in the lobby and asked what he could do for us. He understood how anxious I got, and right away made us feel comfortable. He gave me the option of choosing sedation dentistry (and let me tell you, it was the best decision ever!). It took me a few months to make the decision of what I wanted to do, and thought the process was going to take long, but it didn’t. I had my new smile in less than a month. The best part was I didn’t feel a thing, the sedation was a big relief, and I don’t think I would have gone through the whole process without it. I’m beyond pleased with my new smile. I’m a completely different person and I no longer cover my mouth when I smile, all thanks to Dr. Nazir and staff! I can sincerely say I love my new dentist, the location is really nice and best part it doesn’t smell like a regular dental office, to me that was 10+.

I just want to thank Doctor Nazir and his staffs for such an exceptional service. We went for a Dental Implant Consultation and they made us feel comfortable and knowledgeable of the procedure.
They have provided the highest Customer Service. I wasn’t expecting this, especially from a Doctor. Normally, they examine you and tell you what you want to hear and leave. But Doctor Nazir sat down with us, jokes around and wanted to have a good patient to doctor relationship. I think that is amazing! I could also tell that he has a great working relationship with his employees as well. I truly believe that we can only be as good as our trainer.
Excellent job Doctor Nazir!
