Gary Eggers,DDS & Alok Arora, DMD

Wonderful dental practice — the entire staff team are so kind, thoughtful and welcoming.
I could never find a better dental practice anywhere !!

They do a very thorough job, making the visit very pleasant. Offer music during operations, follow up calls to check on you. Most importantly sensitive to your pain and knowledgeable about newer dental best practices, they also use all modern tools at the practice. They explain billing and costs quite clearly and disclaimers and Information about your procedure is reviewed with you on an iPad prior to work starting.

We have been long-​time customers of Dr Eggers, whom I value not only for his bedside manners, but also for his superior diagnostic skills and craftsmanship (he was able to find and fix a problem for me that 3 prior dentists had overlooked).
Dr Arora continues this tradition, coupled with a great personality that will put even the most anxious patient at ease. Couldn’t recommend him more.

Dr. Arora and his staff are outstanding. I drive all the way from Gilroy to Menlo Park to see him. It is well worth the drive !

Very pleasant experience. I would like to know what areas of my mouth look like I may need improvement or are doing fine. For example, do my gums look healthy, how I can remove stains better, options for moving teeth straighter, do my teeth look strong? Felt very welcomed, really needed that glass of water that was offered! The happy and bubbly assistant also helped turn my day around… so thank you :)

Dr. Arora was great! I thought he was just going to look at my problem tooth and then reschedule me for another time but he was able to fix the problem without having to drill into my teeth at all. No syringe and no pain. He just made it all better. Thanks Dr. Arora. I would definitely refer everyone I know to go get their dental work done there.

So far I have only been to Dr. Arora once for a cleaning but he was really personable. The team was prompt and the office was clean.

Wonderful experience. Having not been to the dentist in too long, I knew my teeth and gums would need work. I was relieved and happy to be treated so kindly and professionally – not scolded unproductively. I look forward to coming back and improving my oral health. Thanks!

Dr. Arora is wonderful! Such good bedside manner. Very positive attitude. Really caring and goes beyond the minimum. Would highly recommend to friends.

If you are on the search for the best dentist, Dr. Arora is your man! Every dentist I have been to in my life has hurt me, even if it was just a simple cleaning, and no, I am not sensitive to pain. Dentists have a stigma for being unpleasant to visit, and for the longest time I shared this sentiment… until I was treated by Dr. Arora.
Dr. Arora truly cares for all of his patients and is very knowledgeable, but best of all, he listens to his patients’ needs and runs his practice and his appointments with his patients’ comfortability as his first priority. Also, his hands are very light and my appointments were completely pain free!
During my first visit, I was greeted promptly by his staff and was also greeted by Dr. Arora himself. He explained to me my visit and the procedures that would follow and the time I should expect to complete my appointment. Before we started, Dr. Arora asked me if I had any concerns that I wanted him to be aware of, and told me that he would be as gentle as possible during the appointment. During my appointment, Dr. Arora kept checking on me to see if I felt any pain or was uncomfortable. I was at ease the entire appointment because Dr. Arora was so attentive. After my appointment, he took the time to show me my X-​rays on the screen and explain to me areas that I needed to work on at home and even literally demonstrated how I can better take care of my teeth. I never felt rushed or in pain during my appointment, and for the first time I didn’t feel like «just another patient». If you are looking for 5-​star treatment, please see Dr. Arora and his staff.
Dr. Arora and his staff are the best! They are professional, competent and caring! Thank you for taking care of me Dr. Arora and for proving that you do not have to dread the dentist!

Dr Eggers is, without doubt, the best dentist on the Peninsula, perhaps the entire Bay Area.
He is extremely skilled, and patient. He explains everything. I appreciate his attitude

Dr. Eggers is the best dentist I have ever had. I only wish I had started seeing him sooner. He is very friendly, great at explaining everything, and does excellent work.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Eggers and all of his staff. I recently transferred into the practice and needed A LOT of work done. Dr. Eggers and his assistants expertly triaged the work into four separate visits, only working on one section of my mouth at a time to limit my discomfort following the visit. Based on the extent of my decay, I’m shocked that I had such little pain following the appointments. In addition, Dr. Eggers is so skilled at targeting the anesthetic that you don’t leave like a drooling fool with a numb mouth for half of the day like I did at all my other dentists. The entire office staff are friendly, accommodating and do everything they can to make you as comfortable as possible. I would never go anywhere else!
A special shout out to Viviana, Dr. Eggers’ receptionist who handles scheduling and billing. Despite the fact that my husband (who suddenly started having tooth pain) was not currently in their practice, she was able to schedule him for a same day visit and Dr. Eggers of course worked his magic and he’s now pain free.

Dr. Eggers is very gentle. I fell asleep a couple times when he was doing procedures. It doesn’t get better than that at a dentist.

Awesome guy really taking care of his patients. He is explaining what he is doing in an understandable way and showing you what he will do/​what he did.
He did and he still doing a great job on my teeth. You can feel he likes his job.
His entire team is also great, from the reception to his assistants.
I highly recommend him.

Dr. Eggers as well as the entire team around him are great. They’re professional, and they run on time, which is huge. If you have to make an appointment, they’ll go out of their way to find something that works. Can’t say enough good things.

Excellent dentist! I’m no longer scared to go to the dentist thanks to Dr. Eggers and his staff!
Super informative and nice. He did an amazing job on my teeth and I trust him 100% for the future (when I need more work done.) His staff is wonderful as well. :)

If you’re like me and have a near-​phobia about going to the dentist this is the place for you. Dr. Eggers and his staff take the time to explain everything that needs to be done and are constantly checking to make sure you’re comfortable. They use the very latest equipment and techniques, and Dr. Eggers work can only be described as art. He takes the time to make sure that everything he does is perfect the first time.
I actually look forward to my dental visits now, something I was sure would never happen!

I gave this office 5 stars for dental work and 1 star for routine care/​bedside manners. It’s 3 average.
If you got a difficult dental problem, I will highly recommend Dr. Eggers. He’s an artist of the dental world, he enjoys his job and you will get the best solution. I don’t see a reason why somebody cannot go to him just for a particular problem.
As for the routine care/​bedside manners, I’ve been with this office for about 3 years and quit because it went too far. I don’t like power trips in medical professionals. They got really pissed off that I used natural remedies and they helped. I had a comprehensive exam once they moved to the new office and after that a 3 worn out fillings fix (gave me an impression that I had to pay for the lack of new patients). After that, the whole year of 2009 I didn’t have any comprehensive exam scheduled and no even good checkups when a dentist looks all around your mouth (once I moved to a new dentist, he found a problem). It looked to me like I was being pushed out. I’ve been lectured every time about flossing/​tooth brushing which in the end became borderline rude. I believe, that the patient well-​being should be more precious that the dentist self-​importance.

Dr. Eggers is a good man. I have a small mouth with small jaw, which makes life for a dentist complicated. That means he can’t get into my back molars as easily. No problema, Dr. Eggers gives me plenty breaks, he even rubs my jaw when my facial muscles twitch. He’s a good man. Love my dentist Dr. Eggers!
His staff is awesome as well for highly anxious, hyperanal young professional. I call frequently to change my appointments, staff take it like a pro. I also call whenever I get hard to understand dental statements, staff always has an answer. His staff is fantastic with teethcleaning, very meticulous. I know all of them by first name b/​c they are very personable.
