I needed a broken wisdom tooth removed a while back and it was an emergency and on a Saturday. They were the only place I could find that would take a drop in and and had reasonable pricing. The extraction was $300 and a fraction of what others charge.
Great price, drop in/short notice, great work and friendly staff. Thank you.

I have extremely high anxiety when dealing with or even thinking about the dentist. I am so very thankful for the amazing staff and dentists that work here. They are kind and compassionate and very thoughtful. They took their time with me as I sat in the chair and cried because I was so afraid. I will definitely use their services again and again...because I waited to long to go back to the dentist.

Wonderful place! The staff was friendly and professional. The dentist did a great job, and I was impressed that they take 3d images of your teeth in addition to x-rays so they can track any changes to your teeth or gums. I expected to have a long and uncomfortable appointment but it was not bad at all. I’ll be going to this dentist from now on.

Another set of experiences from Dr. Pratt, Dr. Mandy, and the expert, kind staff at the Dental Touch that’s left me feeling seen and cared for. I need a lot of work, but I don’t feel judged here. It’s a big deal for me. As a person of color with not a lot of money to throw around, I’m accustomed to being treated as “less than”. You kind of develop an exoskeleton to protect yourself, you know? But here again, I feel as important as anyone else, regardless of means or skin color. Thank you all for a genuinely inclusive experience, and for your expert care. I love my dental staff.

DO NOT choose this place. One word - DECEPTION! They charged me TWICE when I checked my bank account. It was ONLY when I called them about it did they give me the LAME EXCUSE that they ACCIDENTALLY charged me twice. UH HUH! ....RIIIIIIGHTTT! Had I not called them, I would have been ROBBED. Funny how this office didn't even bother to call me to let me know that they had charged me TWICE. Now let's use some common sense here . . . who is responsible to let me know that they "accidentally" charged me TWICE. THEM or me? Apparently it was up to me to find this "error".

This practice is great! The staff are all very friendly and they treat you with the utmost respect. I was impressed with the additional amenities (tv with Netflix in the waiting room AND in the room while you're getting your teeth worked on). I would definitely recommend this place to a friend or family member.

The Dental Touch on Piedmont Ave. in Oakland is the very best dental practice my family and I have ever been to -- and that's saying a lot, as my two daughters are almost grown, and we have lived in five cities.
First and foremost, they do top notch dental work. That is most important, of course.
I have also been at practices where unnecessary work is recommended, and done, in order to make a buck. Not at The Dental Touch. I've seen how that game is played, and they just don't play it at TDT.
Also, on at least three occasions, we've been charged $0 for a visit, even when

I was having a bad experience with another dentist office yesterday as I was waiting there I called the dental touch to make an appointment to get my wisdom teeth removed. They got me in the same day for a consultation and my appointment was set today May 8th to get my wisdom teeth pulled. I was in and out of my consultation in 30 minuets and was informed on what will be done. The staff there is great especially the ladies at the front desk. I will right another review after my treatment

Please read ALL of the Yelp reviews before deciding whether or not to go to the Dental Touch and please DO NOT make the same mistake that I did. I read the reviews and thought that the bad ones must be exaggerating as the word "crook" is used a lot in these reviews. I have amazing dental insurance and thought that all of the comments about getting ripped off would not apply to me. So now I have a similar story to multiple other people who have left reviews: the Dental Touch told me they were in-network with my insurance so I went there for a cleaning during which they told me I had cavities

I had avoided going to the dentist for years until some serious pain earlier this week forced me to find one in Oakland. After checking reviews and calling around if found Dr. Prat and the Dental Touch.
I can't say enough good things about Dr. Prat and his staff. Everyone is very friendly and helpful and they are very clear about the costs and procedures they perform. Charlene took care of me the first day and was very comforting and didn't make me feel bad for having a fear of being at the dentist. Then Dr. Prat came in and explained that I would need a root canal but was very comforting

It starts with the wonderful staff. Everyone is courteous to make your visit pleasant. They get your paperwork in order for insurance and everything sails through on payment. The rates seems on par with other dentists my family visits.
Dr Pratt is friendly, has up to date equipment and thoroughly explains his findings and recommendations. There's never pressure to get it done now. Want to go get another estimate? Go ahead. He'll graciously be available when you return. Again, his prices are fair, his work I've had no complaints with.
FYI, he did a denture replacement for my mother

Dr. Prat and Dr. Wu (i.e The Dental Touch) are the most unprofessional dentists I have ever encountered. They informed me that I was covered by my insurance and than six months later they sent me a bill for $900.00.
They also are not committed to giving their patients the best service. They made a commitment to my husband and they never follow though with the process.
I have informed Dental Touch to close my file. I refused to go back to them. They are unreliable and unprofessional.

A lot of the negative reviews on here seem to be pretty old, so if there were any issues with this place, I think they must be fixed. I've always had a good experience at The Dental Touch, thanks to the AMAZING staff and regardless of whether I was seeing Dr. Prat or Dr. Wu. I'm always in and out in less than an hour, and they may have finally succeeding in getting me to floss more! :)
I chose The Dental Touch because of how close it is to my apartment, but I love it so much, I honestly think I might keep going here after I move!
