Oceanfront Dental Care

Always so professional and friendly! I am so happy and confident to call this dentist, staff and office my preferred place for all of my dental care!

My teeth aren’t the greatest. It’s rare that I go in and don’t have any problems. But at this office I’m not shamed or berated, they genuinely care and try to make my stay comfortable. Their work is excellent, and they’ve even fixed the work of other, less talented dentists. They’ve helped me find a program that works with my mouth chemistry, and give me tips and pointers on other tools for teeth.
They are very cautious and efficient, and will take the time to ensure your comfort during procedures that no one likes to have done. Also, they’re going above and beyond a standard teeth cleaning– they check for oral cancer as well, which is very important but hardly practiced.
#1 dentistry office, 10/​10, A+, will go back every 6 months.

…another day in the life of my smile. I needed a crown for my back tooth… got to my appointment and was greeted with smiles and happiness from Bonnie and Martha. My appointment was at 0930 and I was sat in the chair minutes before and in came Dr.Ray. Now for all you that have somewhat dentist sacredness or dental dreadness ’ THIS IS THE OFFICE FOR YOU ! And if it is easy peasy for you you will be amazed by Dr.Ray. He uses state of the art technology and is that perfectionist that I wish I could be. Get a little prick to numb me and we had the entire process done within and hour. No need to come back the crown is made there from Doctor Ray and adjusted ! His assistant Amy is knowledgeable and always happy to help ! After that I had my teeth cleaned by the amazing and funny Farrah ! Walked out smiling !

Let me start by saying I hated going to the dentist before I found oceanfront dental. Both Dr. Ray and Dr. Saba understand my fear and are amazing dentists. I also want to say they are very conservative. They will not do any dental work unless completely necessary. They are very gentle. Farrah The dental hygienist is amazing and takes her time. The front office staff is knowledgeable and very funny makes you want to come back. I have recommended them many times over and will continue to do so. I have been coming to oceanfront dental for over 20 years and would never change.

Yesterday, my visit was for cleaning and a checkup. I have been seeing Farah for more years than I can remember, at least 15. She is conscientious about her work, explains what she is doing, and makes sure I know the best routines to keep all the bad stuff away, i.e., use an electric toothbrush and floss. In addition I want to recommend Dr. Ray, the dentist. He is well educated and up-​to-​date on whatever technology is required for complex situations. I especially like the way crowns are made within a two-​hour period and only one visit. Highly skilled. Makes you feel comfortable so that you can relax. The office runs smoothly; everyone cheerful and helpful. We regularly recommend Oceanfront Dental to friends and family.

Such a great dentist. I have a horrible fear of the dentist and they always do a great job of putting me to ease and making the process as easy as possible. It had been way too long since I had seen a dentist and I made them work to get my teeth clean. I feel so much better after leaving their office. Best dentist I have ever been to, hands down.

Really great doctor and phenomenal staff. They really care, and be prepared to get the «you must floss» speech. Not in a bad way, all out of love. They have caught and fixed issues that other dentists missed or (somehow) caused. I will continue to visit and highly recommend you give them a try.

I have been a patient of Oceanfront Dental Care for many years. My expectations have always been met or exceeded no matter what the problem might have been. The care is excellent and everyone in the office is helpful and friendly. San Diegans are lucky to have such a great resource in the community.

I have been a patient of the Oceanfront Dental Care for 30 years, visiting the office faithfully every 6 months for my dental checkups and periodically throughout the years for fillings, root canals and other dental matters. It was my lucky day when I walked into this office. Coming from a dental background of fear of pain from my childhood days, the support, patience, professionalism and extreme competence of the entire staff have meant that I have lived the past 30 years worry free about my dental problems or feeling any discomfort while they were being resolved. Dr. Saba and now Dr. Ray listen to your concerns and honor your requests (even if it means waiting an extra 20 minutes to make sure that the «freezing» has taken effect). They never mislead you as to your dental needs. The dental assistants and hygienists reflect the professionalism and competence of this office. The front office staff, led by Bonnie (the office manager), go way beyond normal expectations in the way they assist you with appointments, financial and insurance information and just really making you feel comfortable. As mentioned in another review on this office, «just happy to be there.» They truly care about their patients. I now live in Riverside County. However, no matter how many miles I have to drive, nothing will make me give up this dental office and the wonderful people who work there and who have become my trusted friends and family. If you are searching for a dentist and live in the area of Oceanfront Dental Care, you owe it to yourself to check them out.

I haven’t been as excited or comfortable visiting a dentist office since I was a young teenager. My mother always invested her money in good dentists for my sister and me growing up, but as an adult, I had a few unpleasant visits with other dentists causing me to be reluctant to go back. That is until I recently had to go to Oceanfront Dental for an overseas screening. The receptionists were not only very kind, but they radiated a positive energy in the office that made me happy to be there. They also went beyond the normal reception routine; Bonnie went through the trouble of contacting my insurance company to find out the exact amount I would be charged without me having to ask, and she did it before scheduling me for any appointments. After my initial evaluation, I received 3 fillings from Dr. Ray in two days. He was kind, professionnal, and punctual. He did not waste my time, his assistants were very nice and knew what they were doing, he made sure I was not in pain for the entire procedure, and his work was very impressive. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a new dentist. Although I am moving away from the area, I will definitely make this my dentist when I return.

Great services, nice and kindly staff, high quality services. I have cleaning with Farah, and in 3^rd April I have another appointment with Dr. Greg

Dr. Ray and his staff are wonderful! My husband and I both go regularly and it’s always a great experience! I also highly recommend Teresa as a dental hygienist! I give them 5 stars and two enthusiastic thumbs up!

An amazing practice. All of the people who work here are great from the hygenists to the receptionists. The hygenists are really good at finding trouble spots and when they do appointments are easily made to do the work.
Dr. Ray is an awesome dentist. He works quickly and does a beautiful job. He has done three or four of my fillings and all were quick, pain free and blend in beautifully with my natural teeth. I highly recommend this dentist.
