Melrose Dental Care

I am truly one of those people who absolutely hates the dentist. I shake and sweat and have what I guess is a panic attack when I go. I’ve been blessed with relatively great teeth.
This dentist, Dr Alcara and his staff are hands down THE BEST I’ve ever met. They needed to do a few small procedures on me and I felt that I was in such good hands, they took their time and were very gentle.
I am so grateful I found them and just can’t say enough good things about them.

they will rip you off, do not come in being refereed by the penny saver add, their prices depend on what you look like, when in there for the 30 dollar dental exame walked out paying more and having them telling me all kinds of things were wrong with my teeth, i went to get a second option from another dentist and they told me this place was 100% wrong and are known to rip people off, ive contacted the bbb this place is horrible dont waste your time!

I love this dental office. The reason being (discounting the bias) is that the dentists who own the practice are both very knowledgeable in their field and they will do everything they can to make sure you get the proper care that you need.
The vibe of the office is very bright and welcoming, especially with the décor. It’s almost as though you’re waiting in a family living room. Plus, the cleanliness is outstanding. They keep their office well maintained.
As far as procedures go, they try to do everything with state-​of-​the-​art equipment ranging from electronic medical records (EMRs), x-​ray and photo imaging that is sent straight to their computer, and so forth. Another thing to take off the discomfort of sitting in a medical chair is the television screens strategically placed on the ceiling. So while you’re getting a filling, you can enjoy a Disney movie or something else depending on what they have on hand.
In all honesty, I was rather skeptical of changing dentists considering how long I’ve been a patient at the previous office, but it was worth the risk. It’s closer to home and easily accessible from the 805. The only thing that may come as a disadvantage is the parking on certain holidays (Seafood City is conveniently located in the same shopping area, but it does become a parking nightmare during major holidays, especially towards Christmas and New Years.)
