Palm Desert Family Dental

I wasn’t too psyched when my crown broke while on vacation in Palm Desert the week before Christmas:(
I don’t have a dentist down here (like why would I?) in the Desert so I had to rely on Unilocal which is how I met Dr. Cooper and his amazing staff.
He replaced my crown, and best of all, he noticed how bad my bite was and is trying to help me correct it.
I’m so happy and grateful to have found Dr. Cooper I only wish he was in Seattle:)
If you’re having an issue with your teeth, go see Dr. C!
by the way, he called and checked in on me to make sure I didn’t have any discomfort after the crown procedure. Who does that anymore?

I have recently lost my insurance and had to get on Denta-​Cal, of course as soon as that happened my wisdom teeth started to come in. I wouldnt trust anyone but Dr. Cooper with my teeth, even if i have to pay out of pocket. He is the most amazing dentist i have ever gone to, not to mention his bedside manner is something that you just cant find in any kind of doctor now a days. My whole family goes to him and we recommend all our friends to him as well. I was very scared to get my wisdom tooth removed for i have never had anything done like that before. Dr. Cooper numbed me up and pulled the tooth within second with NO PAIN! A week later and ive had no pain except for being a little sore in the beginning from the shots. LOVE HIM!

Since I no longer have dental insurance, I was interested in quality care at a reasonable price. And, like many others, have a general apprehension about the discomfort that always comes with dental care. I have had a few dental cleanings without discomfort, and Dr. Cooper created an appliance to prevent grinding the teeth at night. I have just completed a course of dental work including several fillings. They were done quickly, and with consideration of my sensitivity to pain. Dr. Cooper was knowledgeable, caring, and put me at ease. All procedures were explained. The office staff is cheerful, upbeat, and personable. A full breakdown of expected cost was given prior to start of work. Thank you, Dr. Cooper. I have referred you to others.

My family of two teenagers, myself and my husband called in for an appointment and we where set up with Doctor Cooper. The front desk receptionist checked on our insurance and told us it was amazing insurance and after our deductible was 100% covered. Dr Cooper immediately told me I needed my wisdom teeth pulled. they have been completely out for about 15 years without ever having crowding or problems with them but Dr Cooper convinced me they NEEDED to come out.
When I agreed he took them out rite then. He worked on my husbands teeth and both of my boys also that same week. I returned several times for dry socket on all 4 teeth that were removed and ongoing problems. Had I known, I wud have kept my wisdom teeth… I had never had any issues with them. After ALL the work was done we were told… oops «sorry we made a mistake about the insurance it doesn’t cover everything». We were floored!!! How could they make a «mistake» like that? We were also told by Dr Cooper that he would help out with absorbing half the cost of what we were left with after insurance coverage.
Since then one of my sons lost a filling, my other son has had on going mouth pain on back right side, my husband had a cavity filled in the wrong tooth and realized after. Not to mention… but I will… One of my sons was completely numbed up on one side of his mouth (with needles) then dr Cooper realized he had numbed the wrong side and proceeded to numb the other side to fill his cavity. In the end we received a bill for almost $ 10,000 after insurance covered there portion. After 2 months we received a letter from the office stating that they were suing us. Unbelievable!!! This place is a Joke!!! Now I have to go looking for a good attorney to counter sue. I guess I’ll be checking on Unilocal for a good attorney… any suggestions?

Dr. Cooper is the best of the best!
My boyfriend had a dental emergency while we were on vacation in Palm Desert; it was early in the morning on a Saturday and we had no idea where to turn. I don’t know how we were lucky enough to find Dr. Cooper, but he returned our call and came in outside of his office hours.
It was apparent right away that Dr Cooper is very skilled and knowledgeable, and what could have been a painful situation was taken care of quickly and easily. He even called us personally to follow up during our stay in town. What a good man and awesome dentist! We recommend him highly and couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.

As soon as you walk in the door, you are welcomed by happy smiling staff that make you feel as comfortable as they can. I got my wisdom teeth out in December and I felt very comfortable. Although, I have been so apprehensive about getting my wisdom teeth out. Dr. Cooper and dental assistant Brittney did a great job. They really do care and go that extra mile that you are leaving without any pain.
I appreciated the consideration and care that Palm Desert Family Dental offers! Highly recommended!
