Montclare Dental

This was probably one of the worst cleanings that I have ever had. I recently switched from another dentist that I have been going to for years because the hygenist was rude and pretentious, and they were constantly dropping the ball on scheduling. My last straw was when I had to leave work early to get to my appointment, sit in traffic for an hour, only to arrive on time and be told that they lost my appointment and that I would have to come back another time. I finally got the nerve to look up Unilocal reviews for a new dentist and stumbled upon this one.
I can’t believe the high ratings. I waited in the chair for a short period of time until a man who I assume is the dentist comes in, peeks around my mouth for a minute and sends the hygenist in to do my cleaning. My hygienist barely spoke english and was very inexperienced. I don’t know what kind of licensing is required to be a hygienist, but I seriously question whether or not this woman had it. My cleaning lasted somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes.
This was the first cleaning I’d ever had where the hygienist only used the water scraping instrument and a suction hose. No mirror instrument to reach difficult areas, which I’ve had other hygienists use it to also hold the mouth open with one hand while working with the other. This woman fishhooked my mouth with a finger on one hand and had the water cleaning instrument with the other. I had so much water overspray on my face that it was like a river accumulating on my upper lip, which I’ve never experienced before. She had to stop at some point and wipe my face off before continuing. Her fishhook hand was also wet from holding my mouth/​lip open. Oh, she did use the metal scraper once for one tooth. That was it.
The worst offender would be when she started polishing my teeth but took the water suction hose out of my mouth. I had to hold the toothpaste flavored spit in the back of my throat until she finished my entire mouth, in which I was very close to just swallowing it at that point. She’d put it in for a second and take it right back out and placed it on my bib (suction is still going), mist my toothpaste-​filled mouth with water and once again forcing me to try and not swallow the water while she did this. She then took the hose off my bib and back into my mouth, then yet again for another rinse. This was the strangest procedure and was not comfortable. Why not just leave the suction hose in my mouth? I’ve never had a hygienist do this before, and the dentist never came back to take a final look. I am seriously confused, and is this not normal protocol during cleanings? This must be the horror that others feel when visiting the dentist.
Anyway, it looks like I will have to switch to another dentist yet AGAIN. I’ll also try to find a spot that offers free parking. This place does not.

Like most people, I don’t enjoy going to the dentist but this is the only place I’m willing to go and believe it or not I actually enjoy going. The Dr. is great about answering my many questions and making me feel at ease about the entire process. My mouth has been amazingly transformed because of the skillful and patient work of Dr. Atcha. I had gotten used to not smiling with my teeth showing because of tetracycline stains from when I was a kid. I was prepared to have to get veneers in order to ever have the look I hoped for but Dr. Atcha assured me that there was an easier and less expensive way that would last longer and look just as great. I trusted him and he was right. Because of him I can smile without feeling self conscious; in fact I’m proud of my smile now. I definitely recommend this place!

I had a wisdom tooth pulled and had literally no pain during the recovery.
No pain! I didn’t take anything more than about six ibuprofen over the course of four days, but at no point did I ever feel any pain. Sure, it was a bit sensitive, but zero pain. How is that even possible?
Dr. Atcha is incredible. The space may look a little sketchy from a distance but they did a great job and were highly professional. I highly recommend them.

Been coming here for over 4yrs and have had great experiences every time. Staff is always friendly and quick to get you seated and out as quick as possible.

Very friendly service and extremely professional environment. Had to wait a little but when is that not the case going to a doctor so I certainly don’t mind that so long as the place is clean and the service is good. This was my first visit and I will not only be back but bring my family over to Dr. Adnan as well as he’s a real gentleman and was willing to answer all and any questions. Best of all, price was very reasonable as I was expected $ 200-​$ 300 for full grown wisdom tooth extraction but walked out paying $ 100 only.

Always running behind with appointments. You may find yourself waiting for an hour before you get seen. Also, not a very modern practice and the customer service isn’t very great.

Dr. Atcha is AWESOME! I have been coming to this place for the past 5 years, Dr. Atcha is always honest and makes sure I understand what procedure I am getting done. I have recommended this place to many of my friends and they absolutely love him.
This place is pretty rad, they are extremely flexible and call me to remind me of my appointments.
Note: This dentist office is family owned and many of its clients have been referred through word of mouth. The prices are great and the staff is very helpful and nice.

This is my dentist. They’re pretty good I guess, although I know we all hate going to the dentist. I’ll be honest in saying that I go here mostly because of my insurance and how close it is to my house. But at the same time I wouldn’t discourage anyone from going here because they’re pretty good.
