Very thorough, professional, and skilled. My confidence in this office is quite high! This is an update to a previous review. My recent visit for an implant placement went significantly beyond my expectations. Though a bit nervous pre-op, it was a quick and seamless procedure. There was basically no post-op pain. As a dentist, I was well aware of this office.

As a patient, I was even more impressed. Update, The follow up to the implant placement was perfect. The site healed well and now I'm ready for the tooth! Thanks to all involved.

His years of clinical experience will give you the best outcome He works closely with a team of local dental professionals and will take a "team approach" to address even the most complex dental issues. He stands for excellence in the dental profession. And if you have seen someone else, and you want a second opinion, this is where you should go.

Highly recommend this office for periodontal services. After an initial consultation with Dr. Cabrera, it was determined I needed a bone graft and dental implant to permanently fix a childhood injury. Dr. Sabzehei performed both procedures and all follow-ups. 'White Glove Service' from start to finish. Received phone calls for a few days following each procedure to ensure I was ok.

The doctors also provided their personal cell numbers for questions and concerns, and responded quickly when contacted. Really can't say enough about the entire staff - they truly care about your well-being and made every step of the 10 month process seamless.

She is a top notch dental surgeon; I have many experiences with other dental surgeons but she by far excelled, she is very talented and again I am very fortunate that I met her and had 3 implants done by her and I needed addition of bone graft which she inserted the bone graft into my sinuses( my dentist told me that it's impossible to insert the bone graft up in my sinuses) but she did and it went like a breathe and I did not feel any pain or discomfort and was surprised by her efficiency.

I chose these docs after abundant research. They were highly recommended by many friends, including dentist friends. I was expecting high prices because of their outstanding reputation but was pleasantly surprised at the affordability. They explained their thinking and reasoning very clearly, which was important to me because I had a rather complex case (which they made work very smoothly). Also punctual and friendly. They also opened up their schedule for me since I have a crazy traveling schedule. I rarely write reviews but am obliged to write this one!
