Amidi Dental

I’ve been Dr. Amidi’s patient for a few years now. I have to say, she is the best in her field. Her office is always updated with the latest technology, the staff are so friendly.
I am a chicken when it comes to drills or needles, but Dr. Amidi is very gentle. She really cares about her patients well-​being.

I hadn’t been to a dentist in twenty years, and I was petrified of them, until Dr. Amidi. I was expecting Judgment Day, but the whole experience, four dental visits in a month, were all painless and each built my confidence. She and her assistants (Laila, Noosheen, and Christopher) have completely changed the way I view my dental health. In looking for a dentist, I ended up realizing it is really about the whole staff. So much of dentistry is a team process, and I trust everyone on her small staff. So if you looking for a smart, skilled, and caring dentist with equally able assistants; where you are known by everyone there, you will feel very fortunate to be cared for by them. Fast forward, it has been now over five years of going there regularly, with now our young daughter going there too (they are even more amazing with kids with even a huge toy bin afterwards). They know and treat you like family. I am super grateful for all they do!

I’ve been coming to Dr. Amidi’s office for over 5 years now and each time I walk into the office I’m impressed by the quality of work that they do and how kind the staff is.
I once had a filling done a few years ago and they did such a good job with the anesthetic that I couldn’t even tell if they were drilling on my upper or lower teeth; all I felt was vibration. I’ve had some pretty bad experience with past dentists, so it’s nice to not have to worry about that anymore.
I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad experience in this office and Dr. Amidi is one of the kindest people I have ever met. Even if I moved 30 miles away, I would still keep coming to this office.

Dr. Amidi’s hygienist, Karen, is a miracle worker. I had a coffee stain on a front tooth that I thought would need professional whitening to remove (they looked like fissure cracks, and nothing over-​the-​counter was working). When Karen was done with her regular cleaning, my teeth looked amazing; no whitening treatment needed! On top of that, she was very sweet and professional. Dr. Amidi was also quite friendly and knowledgeable. Five stars– I’ll be sure to recommend Dr. Amidi and Karen to friends and family.

After horrible experiences with quack dentists I am so relieved to have found Dr. Amidi, who is as legit as it gets! There are so many dentists out there that recommend unecessary work to make a bigger profit, from replacing perfectly good fillings, to extra tests etc. Not Dr. Amidi! Dr. Amidi and her entire staff are incredibly caring, knowledgeable, professional, and most of all honest! I have been going to her now for more than 5 years – and she does a phenomenal job with my children as well. Dr. Amidi educated me about protective sealants for the molars on the children’s teeth – to protect their teeth from cavities. Now that they have the sealants their teeth will look much better than mine. I wish I knew about that when I was a child, as I had a harder time cleaning back there and food got more easily stuck in the back teeth, resulting in cavities. The cavities I personally had replaced by Dr. Amidi were painless, and the end result looked perfect. Leila is phenomenal in dental cleanings, all of our teeth look sparkly after a session with her. Another bonus for children is Dr Amidi and her entire staff are so sweet with children, ending the visit with a toy or sugarfree lollypop they get to pick out of a goodie box. Aside from the fact that the office is pristine, and the patients are well taken care of – Dr Amidi and her staff are genuinely wonderful people – I look forward to my dental visits and grateful I found a dental solution for my entire family.

I am not exactly an ideal dental patient. I have a bad gag reflex and I have a terrible habit of scheduing my appointments at the last minute.
Amidi Dental still makes it a pleasant experience.
They always do their best to fit me in, even when I am only in town for a couple of days. In fact, I think I have always been able to get an appointment with short notice as long as long as I am a bit flexible – which works for me!
The entire staff is always friendly! Which puts me at ease and makes the whole experience better.

Excellent work, detailed, professional, painless, and personable staff! Maryam is an exceptional dentist who cares about her patients and certainly picks out to notch tallented staff.

As much as I really don’t like going to the dentist Amidi Dental is about as pleasant an experience as you can dream of. I’ve been coming to the office for about 7 years now and even though it’s out of the way it’s worth the trip.
Everyone in the office is welcoming and very professional. The office itself is well set up, inviting and clean.

Dr. Amidi and her staff work with the heart. They are lovely, very professional, on time and do an amazing job.

After finding Dr. Amidi, I no longer dread going to the dentist! I have been to three dentists in the area and her and her staff are leaps and bounds above the others. They are all kind, knowledgable, and gentle in their approach!

Went for a first-​time visit with my kids — all three in one day. Dr. Amidi was so kind and the dental hygienists were also very sweet with the kids. Met a lady in the waiting room who said she had been bringing all 4 of her children + herself here for over a decade. After they finished cleaning my kids’ teeth, Dr Amidi came to let me know how everything went. Really appreciated the communication. Really great visit and cleaning. Such a great find.

I’ve been a patient for 5 years here. Dr Amidi and her staff really are amazing. The quality of care and attentiveness really is top notch. They are very good on softselling of the cosmetic services and focusing on medically necessary work. They are kind and gentle if you’ve not the best dental habits. I’ve had no problems with billing or revision work in my time with them… can’t recommend them enough!

I went to Dr. Amidi to get a second opinion after a horrible dentist tried to tell me that I had nine cavities to max out my insurance. I came here and have been back many times since then: for fillings, a crown, a cleaning, and a consult when I needed a root canal. The team has always been very friendly and helpful, especially when I’ve needed to book appointments with little to no notice. Even with my many dental issues, I’ve felt better knowing that I had a great dentist to rely on. Dr. Amidi genuinely cares about her patients and I highly recommend her.

I’m sorry I can’t recommend this dental office for anything more than cleaning. In all three fillings I had replaced at this office, amalgam bonding was problematic.
One of the fillings was especially painful and sensitive for many months (more than the usual couple of days/​weeks) after the procedure. I asked Dr Amidi to re-​examine it, but she said nothing was wrong with it. A piece of one filling fell out within a year.
I had xrays done at a different office and the dentist was surprised that my fillings were less than 2 years old due to the space between the fillings and my teeth. I’ve never had this happen at other offices. Since the bonding was weak on three different fillings and Dr Amidi didn’t fix it after re-​examination, I’ve concluded that this was not a fluke. If your filling is painful and sensitive to cold/​pressure for months after the procedure, you’ll want to get a second opinion.
Pros: ultrasonic scaling, digital x-​rays, easy appointment scheduling
Cons: weak amalgam bonding

Dr Amidi’s skills as a dentist and her bedside manners are good. I would rate her much higher if it were not for recurring billing issues.
First visit, I was charged $ 10 extra co-​pay. After receiving insurance statement, when I noticed this difference, I brought this to her staff’s attention. I got a standard reply that we’ll wait for confirmation from insurance and then revert any overbilled amount. When nothing happened even after a month, I called again and was getting pushback. I threatened to dispute the txn with my credit card and that’s when they agreed to return the over billed amount.
Well, I attributed this experience to one bad office staff.
Next visit after a year and same problem. This time I was over billed $ 40 even though I had mentioned to the office staff that I had billing problem last time and asked them to check my insurance. After a month, when I received insurance statement, I had to go thru the same painful process to get my money back.
Billing issues leave a bad after taste that take away from the experience of a good dentist. I may not visit them a 3^rd time.

I loved my first visit: check up and cleaning. Dr. Amidi is so nice and helpful. Laila did my cleaning and was very informative. She gave tips and encouraged questions. Dr. Amidi also said I can stop by any time if I have a questions, and they respond via email too. This is something I was struggling with when I went to Haight Street Dental in the past. Glad to have found a good dentist and hygienist.

I’ve only been to Dr. Amidi for one cleaning/​checkup, but it was a great one! She and her staff were very pleasant, and were highly skilled (and apparently armed with the latest equipment) — so my cleaning was significantly less uncomfortable than usual. Following my visit I received a handwritten note thanking me for my visit and reminding me of my next appointment, which I found to be a surprisingly nice gesture.
On a less superficial note, Dr. Amidi noticed that I still had wisdom teeth, but was not quick to refer me to a specialist or otherwise push me to deal with the issue before it became necessary. I really appreciate a non-​interventionist approach in a medical professional.
I will certainly be going back!

Dr. Amidi is the best dentist I’ve ever had! She helped turn things around swiftly when I was on a downward spiral of severe tooth pain.
In short, my old dentist had redone some fillings and between a high bite and the size of the fillings, the nerves in my teeth never recovered. I had been back to my old dentist four times and was fed up enough to call around for a new dentist.
Dr. Amidi assessed the situation, gave me her opinion, explained my options, and sent me home with sensitivity toothpaste and a referral to an excellent endodontist if the pain did not subside. Unfortunately I did have to have two root canals. When I returned to Dr. Amidi after the root canals, she put protective crowns over those teeth, fixed my malocclusion, and fitted me for a night guard.
What I love: the office staff is professional and friendly, Dr. Amidi is gentle and efficient but not rushed, and she takes the time to explain everything. She also presents more than one solution and seems to stick to the conservative side of treatment, meaning she’s not going to say something needs to be done if it doesn’t need to be done.
I’d recommend Dr. Amidi to anyone and I feel so lucky to have found such a great dentist!

I’ve been going to Dr. Amidi for two years. She is a friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough dentist. Definitely thorough. She sometimes cleans my teeth, even when I’m not there for a cleaning (she says she’s a bit OCD).
My teeth have needed a lot of work in the last two years — including 2 crowns, a filling, a night guard, and deep cleanings. She also referred me to a specialist for my root canal. Yeah. I’ve got a lot of mouth problems… so sad. But Dr. Amidi handled it all professionally.
The office is bright, clean, and comfortable. The amiable and attentive staff are A+. I’d definitely recommend Amidi Dental.

Honestly, no one likes going to the dentist. I’ve put off going to the dentist long enough that my self-​consciousness for plaque and potential gingivitis finally won and I went to Amidi Dental.
Gone are the days of double-​booked dentist appointments. Dr. Amidi does NOT double-​book and I was seen immediately upon arriving at my appointment time.
During my first visit, Karen, the hygienist took my x-​rays and did my cleaning. She took care of me and I didn’t feel a thing — it was honestly the best cleaning experience I’ve ever had. My teeth was nicely polished at the end of the appointment. I was in and out in less than 1 hour. Dr. Amidi spoke to me about a few issues and I was scheduled to come back in 2 weeks. The receptionist gave me an estimated bill and explained what each charge was for.
During my next appointment, Dr. Amidi was very gentle. She answered my questions and took care of all my concerns. She made sure that I was comfortable the entire time and walked me through the entire procedure. I am a big wuss and truth be told, Dr. Amidi made everything pain-​free. Together with her assistant, Chris, I had a pleasurable experience.
Thank you, Dr. Amidi for restoring my faith in Dentistry. I’ll make sure to visit every six months for my regular check-​up and cleaning!
