I have been to different dental offices, but I must say that this place right here is the most friendly place that I have ever been to. All the staff are wonderful, not only that they are friendly, professional, kind, the place is very clean. they also have the State of the art equipments. The dentist’s and the hygienist’s are the best, they show compassion for their patients, they make sure that you have a wonderful experience when you leave there. All of you guys have a blessed and wonderful new year.
Love you guys!!!!

I had an awesome and caring experience with Dr. Brent, Jesus and Maria. Dr. Brent is always caring when dealing with hesitant patients like
myself and the quality of her work is excellent.
Her assistant Jesus made sure that I was informed during the process and was very attentive and anticipated steps to ensure patient comfort. Lastly, Maria was very patient and very thorough and helped us to manage our treatment benefits.

THIS DENTIST IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST DENTIST I EVER BEEN TO!! For starters as soon as I entered Giselle helped me right away. Then go back into the room Angie does amazing customer service as she talks to me while cleaning making sure I am comfortable. Throughout the whole cleaning I was able to understand the codes they use as she explained it to me. We engaged in conversation about life and made me feel so comfortable.
The Dr. Was great asked me if I wanted to look over my X-rays and if I had any questions I want to ask.
Best experience.

Absolutely loved my experience at Canyon Crest Dental! As a new mom I was so stressed about having to bring my baby with me to my appointment but the entire team there made me feel so incredibly welcome and assured me it was no problem. I can’t tell you how deeply this was appreciated. From booking the appointment with Cheyenne at the front desk to working with Giselle and Jaime, all who were beyond helpful, welcoming, and gentle with my teeth, the entire process from start to finish was excellent. Dr. Assad was equally kind and informative to where I felt completely taken care of. My husband

I literally had a life changing experience. I usually have high anxiety when visiting the dentist but this visit was much much different from the last place I went to. Jaime and Giselle were amazing. Made me feel welcomed and were very polite and hospitable. My anxiety was the lowest it’s ever been at the dentist. Dr Brent was amazing as well. I look forward to getting my teeth exactly how I want them. Office was also amazing. Looking forward to my next visit for the first time in my life.
