I was blessed they accommodated my request for and appointment. I moved to Northern cal a couple of years ago, my insurance changed. Could not get in until February up there. I had a trip to Santa Margarita, Penrod Dental got me in. No waiting in the lobby. X-rays, clean and ready to go. Awesome job

Absolutely loved my visit. The staff and doctor I met were all very friendly. The care I received was top notch. The office is also really pretty and I found the chair very comfortable during my appointment.

Easily one of the best dental experiences I have ever had. Mine was just for a cleaning, X-rays, etc. but the staff was wonderful!
Dentist I have been to in the past just seem to want to “upsell” you (you must get a full deep cleaning $$$, all your old fillings need to be replaced $$$) and so on. So I stopped going for several years.
But the experience at Penrod was the exact opposite! They respect what you want and really need! If you may need a deep cleaning for a couple areas then ok, but that would after a couple of standard cleanings to see if it is really needed. Same with old fillings

After our dentist retired, it was time to find someone new. We've seen the positive reviews of this practice for years, so I reached out to them.
I was overdue for a cleaning and an initial exam. I was greeted by a lady who radiated her smile across the phone, and she answered my questions. An appointment was scheduled later that day ( probably available because of the heavy rain ).
When I arrived at the office I was immediately greeted and within minutes I was in a treatment room. They have the latest in technology, and xrays were done quickly. The cleaning was excellent, and the exam revealed

Courteous staff and very accommodating. They got me in for a same day appointment and helped with a specific issue that no other dentist in the area could help with. I was in and out quickly, and they did a great job! Plus super friendly staff and very clean + updated facilities.
Update! This is another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Penrod dental. I recently brought my 4-yr-old in who has a need for some dental work. I had gone to a pediatric dentist elsewhere and I wanted to get a second opinion. They were so nice and made it easy for my son. Actually a way nicer environment for him

I went for my first appointment to Penrod Dental Care and found the entire staff I dealt with to be very welcoming and friendly. My Dental Hygienist, Angelica, was very efficient and thorough. After she completed x-rays and gum readings, Dr. King came in and examined my teeth and gums. I was very happy with the way he explained everything and included me in the discussion regarding any further or future treatment. There was no rush with my appointment, and I left with all of my questions answered and feeling very positive about Penrod Dental Care. I made an appointment for teeth cleaning before

My first experience at Penrod Dental was fantastic! Kathleen got me in for a dental emergency on short notice. During my visit, the whole staff couldn’t have been nicer.They knew that I was very anxious during my visit and really went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. Kathleen took a long time explaining my treatment plan and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure that I needed. I would highly recommend Penrod Dental to anyone.

What a phenomenal dental appointment! The hygienist took some time to get to know me before doing a complete set of X-rays, including a panoramic X-ray. Before doing one of the most thorough cleanings that I have ever experienced at any dental office, she measured and had an assistant record the amount of recession of the gums at each tooth. Both the hygienist and dentist reviewed the X-rays, and the dentist completed a thorough exam, having an assistant note which teeth had old fillings and small cracks that needed to be watched on future visits. They spent an hour and a half on me! I was so thrilled

My family and I have being going to Penrod Dental for many years. My daughter has been seeing them twice a year since she was 2 and she loves going to the dentist. Each time we go we feel like we are part of the Penrod Family. They have accommodated our schedules and truly tried their hardest to schedule a time that works best for us. I highly recommend Penrod Dental as your family dentist.
