I have been seeing Dr. Vella a long time now. I'm a huge dental phobic.....like.... bad. He is the ONLY dentist I will even let look in my mouth awake. They have earned my trust. And even though I'm always sedated. He is the ONLY dentist I will let touch me or work on me. If you have a phobic, a fear or even if you don't. This is the only dentist and staff I would ever recommend. You will see for yourself.

Very good visit to the dentist. Hygienist did the most through exam I've ever had. Felt she could not do a through cleaning in the time left, so we rescheduled for another time. Very helpful, pleasant and gentle. Dentist great. Decided to watch a tooth rather than rush to fill it. Office staff very efficient and pleasant. the best thing for me was the chairlift to the second floor. No struggling up the stairs with a walker.
Would recommend to anyone without reservation.

I discovered on had a crack in my tooth. I called the office to see if someone would be able to look at it. They were able to see me the same day. Within minutes I had an X-ray done. They discovered I was ready to lose my tooth. They Quickly worked on it right away. Within hours I was able to get a permanent crown. What an amazing office having such high tech equipment. Thank you Dr Vella Dr Attardi, and his amazing staff.

My 1st visit. Previous dentist retired. The staff was welcoming and friendly. The hygienist, Jaimie was fantastic. She made me feel comfortable. Paid attention to my special needs - fear of the dentist. One criticism. When you are a new patient, it’s an assessment visit. My teeth were not cleaned as expected. I was however; complimented on how well I take care of my teeth. Next visit will definitely be a cleaning.
I highly recommend this dental practice!!!

I was in need of dental work and a family member recommended Dr. Vella. I went in for a consultation and Dr. Vella explained my situation to me thoroughly and was so patient and understanding as well. His staff was just as kind and I instantly felt comfortable here. They understood I was nervous. On the day of everything went as explained to me and my post-op pain was so minimal and no swelling. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to the dentist/dental work so I requested IV sedation, it helped me so much to relax and not feel anything. Dr. Vella and his team made sure I was OK from start to

This is a great practice with highly professional and kind practitioners. Dr. Vella made what I thought was going to be a painful and distressing experience simple as pie! I am very grateful and I highly recommend anyone needing implants or any other dental procedures to visit them!

As a lifelong dental phobic who had many problems getting properly numbed for procedures, I was thrilled to have found Dr. Vella! He is caring, compassionate, knowledgeable and highly skilled! He surrounds himself with a great team of people and the most modern technologies and equipment, and there is no doubt in my mind that he truly cares for his patients. I have had a number of dental surgeries and implants with Dr. Vella over the last 4 years, and I can attest to his knowledge and his compassion. I will truly miss Dr. Vella and his team, as we are moving to South Carolina next month. If I can’t

A colleague recommended Dr. Vella, after I had a bad experience with a different dentist and was very reluctant to go at all. My 1st appointment forever changed my opinion about going to the dentist. 18 years and two kids later, we have never had another bad experience and my kids actually like going to the dentist... who can say that?!? Dr. Vella… is second to none. He is professional and very knowledgeable, his office and staff are top notch and they really make you feel like family. I've had everything done from routine cleanings, wisdom teeth extractions to an implant and everything

My first visit to this practice was on an emergency basis. I called on Monday morning and was given an appointment for the very next day. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful. The attending technician made me quite comfortable at an uncomfortable time. My new dentist, Dr. David Attardi, was very kind and understanding of my plight. He… made a temporary fix that will last for a while as I consider the next step along the path. I am very pleased with the informative and pressure-free approach of the Vincent Vella dental practice. It is right at the corner of Empire Blvd. and Helendale

Needing much dental work done for years. I have put it off because I am an extreme Dental phobic. Needing to be sedated just for dental cleanings. I Then came across and was blessed to meet Dr Vella and his complete supporting staff.
The first time I came into the office the office staff was very professional and kind. And tried to make me… feel more comfortable.
I then met Tracey. Full of energy, wealth of knowledge. And set me at ease.
Dr Vella then came in to review what all needed to be done. I have never met a surgeon or dentist that had so much compassion and understanding for people

Awful experience.. He distorted my mouth.. He had me in constant pain for 1year & 1/2.. He didn't listen to me as a patient.. I wouldn't have ANYONE go there.. He had me with NO teeth for over a year.. I couldn't bite or chew.. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL with just feeding me pain pills instead of fixing the problem.. I took myself somewhere else to fix my mouth.. Total trauma he caused.. I pray no one else ever goes through the pain and torture I endured with Dr. Vella I Seriously don't recommend him to anyone

Just inserted my first tooth implant at Dr. Vella's office. One of my best experience with dentists. Staff is friendly, office is top notch, communications (before and after the procedure) comprehensive, and most important of all - one day after the procedure I almost forgot about it - feeling great!

He is a complete joke . Nothing more then a snake oil salesman. Definitely get a second opinion before letting him touch you. He will remove teeth and talk you into needless implants to line his pockets without giving you all the options . This is the kind of person that gives all dentists a bad reputation. Then won't even return calls when you confront him about his practices.

I avoid the dentist like it's ..... the dentist. Yeah it doesn't get much worse then the dentist. But I will have to say I just had my wisdom teeth removed and even though the situation sucks I couldn't be more happy with how it went. The entire time I was kept in the loop of how it was going to work. By the time I realized I was getting tired I was being told to wake up. I was so numb I didn't feel a thing and I was on another realm but it was completely painless. They handed me a milkshake and off I went. I am still healing currently and not eating food sucks but I am glad

This office came with a high recommendation. After my consultation, I was inclined to agree. Friendly and seemingly informative.
Unfortunately, though I repeatedly asked about how they verified my insurance and being told they called the insurance company, and even 2 weeks later at the actual appointment asking AGAIN if there was an update or change I was told that everything was the same. Note: I also called insurance, who would not assist me as I didn't know the billing codes from the office, so I was dependent on them. The office never told me that even two weeks later they hadn't

Awesome Dental Staff, very kind, courteous and accommodating. Dr. Vella is very well established & connected in the Dental Community and he personally knows my Dentist back in SoCal, so I felt right at home. He reviewed my X-Rays and Charts and immediately had a game plan for our upcoming Consultation. I highly recommend Dr. Vella!!

I've been going to Dr. Vella for years, since getting my wisdom teeth out. I'm afraid of needles, and my teeth are very sensitive even for general cleaning. He's the only dentist that I TRUST. He's patient and understanding, and very slick with a needle. A quick wiggle of the cheek and I didn't even know he did it! I also like that he's not just a general dentist, but an Oral Surgeon as well, so there's added comfort that he really knows what he's doing. There's no other dentist I'll allow to perform work on me, period.
