If you need routine Periodontal doctor this is not the place for you. They will keep rescheduling you and pushing you to the sided for new patients. The staff doesn't care about your time. They will only do what best for them. They staff is unreliable and unorganized. Do not recommend this place for a routine doctor.

This was one the best dental experiences ever. Dr. Porras is very personable and professional. I love the fact that he is very hands-on throughout the entire procedure including the phlebotomy work. Very thorough.

Since visiting here in October, I have received less than quality treatment for the surgery for periodontal disease. They even forgot to put bandages in my mouth after my 1st surgery and I bled profusely when I arrived home. BTW...do NOT SIGN all their documents especially the one for teeth extraction because they will pull teeth they deem that you don't need even if its not an issue. I have been experiencing extreme molar pain since November 2020. I called March 2021 due to an overwhelming pain on upper molar next to an "extraction" and their response was basically "what would you like for us

Dr Porras and his team have been keeping my gums healthy and strong for almost 5 years. After initially visiting Dr Porras with several periodontal issues he and his team stabilIzed my gums, which have been healthy and strong since. He and his team are very caring and thorough. His treatments and cleaning are spot on. I highly recommend Dr Porras for your periodontal needs and Clara for cleanings.

The experience with Dr. Porras and his team was a great one! No one wants to have dental work done, but if you need to get specialty services this is the place to go! After my procedure which was on a Friday, they even called to check on me the day after, Thank you! I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing dental care needs!

Dr Porras and his team are tremendous. I’m very happy with my time here. I went in for some advanced gum recession and he and his team performed wonderfully. The cleaning is also probably the best I’ve had. Definitely 5/5 stars.

Great experience! Super friendly staff, office manager Julie was very helpful and welcoming. Clara did a wonderful job cleaning my teeth. Dr. Porras was extremely knowledgeable, I feel very confident in their treatment. Overall, didn’t feel like I was at a dentist office, with the first class service and comfortable environment. I highly recommend.
