Services
Since the beginning of her career, Dr. Terlet has advocated to provide access to quality dental care for all. Her commitment to preserving community dental health is evidenced by the number of boards and committees she serves.

This includes Healthy Kids Healthy Teeth Advisory Board, Chabot College Dental Hygiene Advisory Board Member, First 5 Scientific Advisory Committee Member, Dental Board of California, University of the Pacific Alumni Board Member, and past president, Berkeley Dental Society, California Dental Association Trustee and ADA Council on Government Affairs representing California.
In the case of tooth decay, it protects a weak tooth from breaking or it holds the parts together. During a dental exam our team will take x-rays, examine existing restorations (crowns, fillings or other restorative work), screen for oral cancer and examine your teeth for decay. Generally your dental cleaning will be performed by a Registered Dental Hygienist.
Cosmetic dentistry is defined by the American Dental Association as "dental services provided by dentists solely for the purpose of improving the appearance when form and function are satisfactory and no pathologic conditions exist." Our doctors strive to not only give you a beautiful and radiant smile but confidence to approach any situation.
We welcome new patients to our Berkeley, California dental practice. We want you to feel comfortable and relaxed during all your appointments. During your first visit to our office we take your medical history, new dental x-rays and review prior dental records if available. You'll talk with Dr. Terlet or Dr. Aziz about anything that your concerned about and their recommendations based off their discovery during the first appointment.

This place is not worth your money. For only a cleaning and x-rays my total was $373. You can definitely find a much better place for half of the cost. 1/10 do not recommend.

The worst experience.
I asked about the charge before the treatment. They told me it's around $80. But it end up with a $370 statement. I called them about this problem. The lady said their estimation can be different from the real charge. A $300 difference! She told me it's all my responsibilities for this payment and hung up my phone.
During the treatment, the lady doing the filling wiped the tip of a tool using her clothes then put it into my mouth directly!! But I can do nothing with my mouth open at that moment.
The four bite X-ray, the right side, only half of the tooth no7 is seen. This

One picture is worth a thousand words. The first week of the lock-down due to the virus, I called the office with slight pain in a tooth that Dr. Terlet was planning to fill after the crisis. One of the kind, patient, and empathic staff answered the phone, and asked me, "When can you get here?" When I arrived and walked down the empty hall leading to the office,s I was greeted by the sight of their office door being open. That is the picture I will always remember. As I walked through the door I was greeted a friendly Hello and told I would be seen right away.
There are two superb dentists

After posting this note, the dentist office called and kindly gave me a refund for the out-of-network charges. They apologize for the mistake and set me up with the doctor in their office that's in network. Giving them five stars as it all worked out well in the end, however it shouldn't have taken a Yelp review to fix this mistake. I will be going back to the dentist as I did really like the care that I received there, and that's important to me.

Thank you so much. I have forgotten my fears of coming to the dentist.
My visist was great as usual and my teeth/gums are as happy as I am or maybe more!

I went for my first visit to Dr. Terlet-- I am new to Berkeley and she was recommended by a friend. She's the best dentist I've ever had (I'm 75 years old). It was the first time anyone went over X-rays of my teeth and explained what we were seeing and the significance of the various structures and forms. What an eye-opening education!
In addition, Dr. Terlet was very thorough, professional, and warm and human at the same time. My experience with dentists in the past has been quite mixed but I can recommend Dr. Terlet without reservation.

Both Dr. Terlet and Dr. Aziz have taken care of my dental needs most effectively. I have chosen Dr. Aziz as my primary dentist.
They are both very experienced and professional, they are also kind, warm, and sensitive to my particular needs. Plus I have found Dr. Aziz to be meticulous in her work and very skilled in working on my teeth without causing me any discomfort. I have had both teeth cleaning, fillings and installation of implants done very well and painlessly. Brava!
I highly recommend them.

Been going for 20+ years and I think this practice just the best. They have Saturday hours and that is very helpful. Always on top of your dental health and how it ties to overall wellness. They work hard to give you the best dental experience. Highly recommend.

All three are wonderful! I never have a bad experience here and I’ve been going for 10 year. Dr Aziz is my primary but I love them all. Support staff are also the greatest. Going to the dentist is rough but they make the experience as gentle as possible.

I highly recommend Dr Aziz. She always listens to my current situation, assessing the condition of dental hygiene routine, giving me helpful suggestions on how I can improve. I am grateful for her conscientious approach. She’s totally adaptable in caring for my granddaughter ‘s teeth (6 years old) as well. Five stars for Dr Aziz

I was given Dr. Terlet's name by someone in my Bootcamp. She raved about the quality of service Dr. Terlet provided her, so I called the office to make an appointment that day and I was able to be seen within that week.

Can I just say she is the best Dentist I've ever been to?

She is very friendly, very professional, SHE LISTENS, and my favorite... she is very informative and has no issue explaining everything she doing.

I got X-rays and we created a work plan on my first visit and now three visits later, I'm extremely pleased with her service and the service of her friendly

I've been getting dental care from Dr Terlet for more than 20 years, I've lost track. Mary has been my hygienist. I can't say enough about this fantastic dental office including front staff and scheduling systems. Transferring now only because I moved. I will miss them and can only hope to get this kind of care at my new dentist's. Bless you all for your excellent and skillful care in a warm, empathetic and safe feeling environment.

I love Ariane Terlet! She has been my dentist for years and I would not go anywhere else! She is kind, thorough, efficient, careful, and basically just really great. She puts up photos of her patients' kids! She squeezes you in immediately if you have an urgent dental problem!

I called on a Saturday morning in pain to request same day appointment and was immediately greeted by a sympathetic and understanding voice. I was at their office shortly thereafter, filled out the paperwork , and seen by the doctor. All the office staff were incredibly helpful and nice. The doctor heard my concerns and addressed them immediately. My dental insurance was not yet set up and I told them that from the beginning. I had an X-ray and checkup for only $85. I've been to plenty of dentists and expected a much higher bill. I was pleasantly surprised and given the situation enjoyed my

My kid has extreme anxiety problems which the office dealt with very very well. There were no panic attacks even with extensive dental work. Everyone I interacted with was professional and friendly - hard to imagine a better dental office.

I went to Terlet's office for about two years (six month cleanings and check-ups). In that time I found that I always had to wait 20 mins to a half hour after my appointment time before being taken. The office staff messed up my billing on two occasions, not being able to manage multiple insurance coverage, and Terlet herself was brief to the point of almost not being there. I also found that, on comparison with other dentists, Terlet charged higher than average, for providing average work in an unpunctual manner. I would not recommend Ariane Terlet.

I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I am NOT the type of person who likes to go to the dentist. Had my wisdom teeth out at 40 years of age! :-o

However, when we got together, my then fiance (now husband) had been a patient of Drs. Terlet and Aziz, for quite some time. So, on his word, I went to see them. So Glad I did! Both doctors, as well as the other professionals on their staff, are knowledgeable, patient ( I'm a big scardy when it comes to needles) and above all "courteously professional" .

I have been a patent through: being a newlywed, a pregnant ( and very ill) woman

I have been seeing Dr. Terlet for several years now.

Dr. Terlet. is extremely professional, she doesn't try and up-sell you on every latest dental gimmick, and her staff is incredibly friendly and personable.

Dr Terlet has always been on time and has done excellent work on my teeth.

On thing I particularly like about Dr. Terlet is that she is very up front about work that needs to be done and work that can wait. This has helped me a lot when I have been between insurance plans.

Lastly, I had a chip on my front tooth for years. I had seen several dentists over that time that said it couldn

I still love my dentist and her staff. I was in and out under 1 hour today. They said, " Todd we're ready to see you." 20 minutes after my scheduled time, but 10 minutes prior they apologized for lagging.
This was even less of an issue because of the huge, varied assortment of current magazines. Reading 'Entertainment Weekly' and " Runner's World" to pass the time....

I have now had 3 different people at this office clean my teeth, but all of them I vouch for in terms of being polite, friendly, most importantly, doing a darn good job.

We've been going to Dr. Terlet for over 20 years and I wouldn't switch dentists for anything. Here's how good she is: when my son was 4 years old he fell and damaged a front tooth and had to have a root canal. He doesn't remember getting a root canal -- she did it so gently and well that he just thinks going to the dentist is fun. She's smart and straight talking and her genuine commitment to people's health really comes across, and her whole staff is the same way. We think she's the best!
