My 4 kids have been going to Dr. Tina for almost 10 years. The entire staff is loving, caring, gentle and most of all thrust-worthy. We've had tons of cleaning and a handful of fillings, an extraction and braces. Always been more than happy with the care we've received over the years. Highly recommended !

I'm very unhappy right now. I called the office yesterday and asked if I can come in just 10 minutes later than my appointment because of a work meeting. I was told no. Not even 10 minutes late. Ok, I leave work early to make it here on time for my two boys. It's 30 minutes after our appointment time and my son is just now seated. No apologies from the front office. No courtesy call that they are running late.
I asked the office for a comment card, they say they don't have one. Just leave a review on Yelp! Seriously? Ok!

This is the best pediatric dentist office around! It's super clean and decorated in an adorable fish/aquarium theme with cute toys in the waiting room. Due to the Covid pandemic they now have a "virtual waiting room" you check in through a link sent to your phone and they let you know when you can come up so social distancing guidelines can be followed. My daughter is almost 3 and loves coming in here and has no fear! The hygienists are super sweet and good with little ones and so is Dr Tina. She is smart, friendly and has a calm demeanor to her that the kids pick up on. I was nervous

I've brought my twin toddlers here twice so far for their 6 month checkups. Everyone they have seen are so good with kids, including Tina Azin and the fish/aquarium decor is really beautiful and helps distract kids from fears of the dentist. Ive always been called back on time and get out of their in a timely fashion as well. Glad to find a great pediatric dentist so close to home. Highly recommend

My 4 kids have all been going here for years and they always have a wonderful experience.
We have seen the Dr. and her fantastic staff for cleanings as well as 1 extraction and 2 fillings. All pain (and fear!) free.
My kids love coming into the clean, modern office. The waiting room has games, small toys and TV screens. All the chairs have individual TV's (with netflix) for the kids to watch.
Very happy with our experiences over the 5 years we've been going. There has only been 1 hiccup with the billing, but other than that no complaints.

My daughter has been seeing Dr. Tina since she opened her practice and my son since he was old enough to go to the dentist. Her and her staff are absolutely amazing! Her office is inviting and they are all so attentive with all of the kids they see. Katarina is excellent and well versed in her abilities. Dr. Tina is genuine and doesn't pull any punches when it comes to the treatment and expectations. I don't understand how some people could give 1 star because their insurance doesn't cover the treatment or they had a problem with a receptionist (I have never had an issue with any

My wife and children have nothing but positive things to say about the Dr. This review is for everything else. Long story made short(ish). My insurance provider had this dentist as a covered provider. My children received services, and then the office staff decided to determine if we were covered. Most organizations will determine coverage prior to performing service. As a result of then being informed that we were not covered, i was provided with a bill. I have been working through my insurance company to get the issue resolved, but upon calling the office, I was informed that it would

I would give this place 10 stars if I could.
The office CLEAN and beautiful. There is a nice sink in the shape of a surfboard and free individually-wrapped toothbrushes provided for your child. There are fun video games in the tiki village hut in the lobby.
Dental hygienists are professional, competent, and are great working with kids. Not scary or intimidating at all. There are TVs for each seat with a nice selection of movies to distract and entertain your child. The receptionists are polite, courteous, and professional. They are knowledgable about insurance issues and they take the time to

Dr. Tina and her staff are fantastic! We were personally recommended to see her regarding an ortho solution for our 9 yr old son. She was very professional during our consultation, only addressing what needed to get done rather than recommending a bunch of other treatments to keep us there. We currently drive from Irvine to her office in Santa Margarita because we've been very pleased with my son's progress and really appreciate how Tina and her staff have been taking care of him and communicating with us regarding his current status and continuing steps. Dr Tina has a great bedside

I am truly disappointed in my experience at this office for ortho only. As a dentist and for dental work, I have been happy so I'm sad to give such a low rating but I do think people should know before choosing her as your ortho that afternoon appointments are very difficult to get. I have found that I have to pull my kids out of school so much more than I would have liked...monthly and sometimes more than 1 time in a month. Also the customer service is inconsistent. Sometimes they send my child out and don't talk with me at all. I have had a few instances where what the ortho techs

This office is right next door to my dental office. I took my daughter here because my dentist and staff told me how good their team is and how good dr tina is. They were absolutely right. They have a great staff and dr tina is amazing. I hope to be able to bring my daughter here as long as they will take her.
