I Love this office and I think Dr. Sahafi is terrific!!!
Dr. Sahafi did some cosmetic work for me in 2008, 13 years ago and the work looked amazing then and still does. The type of work that I had done sometimes deteriorates over time but mine has not! I get nothing but compliments on my smile. Recently I had some work done for my son by another dentist and while we are generally happy with the work there is a problem and we wanted a second opinion. Dr. Sahafi graciously provided a second opinion consultation and advised us on how to proceed. I have learned my lesson and will only be using

Also spent hours on the phone with my insurance looking through my policies and speaking with multiple workers. Even looking into laws. They clarified that it was the responsibility of the dental office, not them.

Dr. Sahafi ruined my life. I was divorcing after 32 years. I went to Dover wanting a new smile. Dr Sahafi recommended caps and a few implants. I agreed and paid her 17.000 dollars for the work. She recommended caps and several implants. I agreed. She than ground my teeth down and put on temporary caps.
I had paid her 17,000 but was unable to pay the remaining 2,700 I owed her at the time. She refused to see me until I paid the balance. When I was able to pay the balance she saw me. This was 5 months I was trying to get her to see me.
At this time she told me that my teeth had worn down to nothing

I have been going to Dover Dental for 5 years and this was the first time I needed fillings. Dr Sahafi and her assistant were great. Two fillings in less than an hour and no pain. This office is great and I would highly recommend this office for all your dental needs.

I have been going to Dr. Sahafi at Dover Dental for almost 10 years now, after my sister came home raving about how wonderful she was. She is the most competent, professional, honest, generous and compassionate individual. Even when my insurance did not cover my visits to her I paid out of pocket because I couldn't imagine going anywhere else. Dr. Sahafi gave me discounts without even being asked. She is not only generous with her patients but she gives back to local charities as well. I work for a non-profit and Dr. Sahafi has always been proactive in asking how she can help and follows

I had the pleasure to work for Dr Sahafi back in 2011 when her main dental assistant was on vacation. From the very day 1 of working for her/subbing for her main dental assistant, Dr Sahafi had made me feel so welcome in her office. I have never felt like an outsider, considering I only work there as a sub DA. This holds true, too for her patients. I have observed her deep connections with them and its always inspiring to see her personal interactions with them. They always laugh and chat and tell stories and catch up. Dr Sahafi treats all her patients with genuine warmth and kindness. She is very

We have been patients of Dover Dental for a long time now. The staff is friendly and prompt, and the dentist Kate Sahafi is very nice and personable. They do a great job with the dental cleanings and work. We have even had to call them for emergency work before and they immediately made room for us to rush in and were very caring and helpful. We definitely feel they have made a great effort to not only care for our teeth but also build a personal relationship with us.

First off, the office is pretty nice and the staff is truly a polite group of ladies. When I go in for an inlay (I think that was the original game-plan) on a really bad cavity, only to be told "Welp Blake, we have some bad news, you need a root canal". It felt so unethical that they did not warn me at least that once we open this thing up, it could be worse and a lot more taxing finically and time wise. Once they have a hole in my mouth they say you need to spend a couple thousand dollars more. I feel that this wasn't purposeful on their behalf and I would like to think they wouldn

I've been a patient of Dr. Sahafi for over two years and she is by far the best dentist I've ever seen. She's super friendly and helpful and so is the rest of her staff. She came highly recommended by a friend of mine and I would definitely recommend her to anyone in the Orange County area!

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Sahafi and her staff as a fill-in for one of her hygienists who was out of town. What a wonderful dental office, not only is the staff incredible but the office is spotless, and the patients are some of the nicest people I've worked with.
I have been filling-in for offices around orange county, feeling discouraged of the way offices are run, and patients are treated. Working only 1 day with Dr. Sahafi and her staff made me realize why I chose my profession again, and it is so refreshing to know with so many scams out there, she is an HONEST doctor!

Dover Dental and DR. SAHAFI is a SCAM! Do NOT go to Dover Dental unless your looking to get RIPPED OFF, lied too, and have to pay a huge bill at the end.

My Fiance and I needed a new dentist so we went to Dover Dental. We both ended up having to pay hundreds of dollars after the staff at Dover Dental told us we were going to be covered by insurance.

The first time I went in to Dover Dental was to get a teeth cleaning. They did not even complete all the steps to finish a cleaning, they told me I had to come a second time to finish my cleaning! They only think about how they can steal your money

I went to her for about a year or so and I had to have 2-3 filling replaced. I felt funny about that so after the 3rd one, I drove back an hour to my dentist that I had for 20 years and had not had any constant replacements needed every time I went in and he told me there was no reason to replace my fillings at the time and there were no new cavities. So I decided not to go back to someone who tells me I have to do dental work that is not necessary.
