Michael Leigh, DDS

Between my Dad, Wife, and I we have been seeing Dr. Leigh for a combined 30+ years. That alone I feel speaks volumes about how highly we think of him.
Dr. Leigh and his staff are incredibly pleasant, courteous, and kind. He never pushes any kind of service or product on you to line his pockets, I never have to wait a long time to be seen for my appointment, and I have never had any issues with teeth during my time seeing him.
Dr. Leigh is the absolute best.

I had such a difficult time finding a dentist in the Santa Clarita Valley that didn’t want to completely re-​do my teeth and give me cosmetic procedures that were unnecessary. I grew up going to a great old-​school dentist in Ventura, who knew cosmetic procedures but didn’t feel the need to oversell them to every client. In Santa Clarita, I had been visiting a dentist that kept finding something wrong every visit, even though I felt I had been cleaning more and more diligently every time. I had never had that many fillings with my Ventura dentist. I would dread going to the dentist, was feeling like each dental visit was putting us back hundreds of dollars, and eventually just no longer wanted to go, even though I knew this was a detriment to my dental health. Enter Dr. Leigh. After looking at my x-​rays and teeth, he told me I do not have a problem with cavities and never will. He showed me how the newer fillings that I had been given were wholly unnecessary. Like my dentist in Ventura, he cleaned my teeth himself and sent me on my way. The visit took a half hour. His office is run by, I believe, his wife (similar, again, to my Ventura dentist); his assistant has been the same since we started going a few years back. I am relieved to have a dentist that is not money-​hungry and has my dental health as his priority.

I have been going to Dr. Leigh’s office since I was 14. After being terrified of the dentist my whole life, Dr. Leigh has made going to the dentist actually relaxing. His office is friendly and caring, and his treatment is painless. When I lost my insurance after college, I didn’t see him for several years. I was convinced I would need a ton of work, but was assured that my teeth weren’t that bad and he fixed me right up with a few fillings. I still don’t have insurance, but I would rather pay out of pocket for a dentist who I know and trust than try finding somebody else. I now live in Tennessee and still see Dr. Leigh during my visits back to California. I have recommended him to several people, who all continue to see him regularly.

I ditto everything Jeff said. Dr. Leigh is great. He even sings while working on you. The most enjoyable dental visits ever!

JEFF H: Hate to tell you but our family thought the same thing about his cleaning methods. We were very wrong. We have been told by other dental professionals that he does not do a good job cleaning. We regret having gone to him twice a year for the past 16 years. We had to learn the hard way. If you continue as his patient, you will end up with expensive & painful periodontal problems, bad crowns etc. due to his poor practices’. Please take my advice. We have since heard the same complaints from other past patients of his. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM. IF YOU ALREADY ARE A PATIENT OF HIS, FIND ANOTHER DENTIST FAST!

Dr. Leigh is probably the best dentist I have ever been to. He and his office staff are extremely friendly, funny, and talkative, and they seem like they all really enjoy what they do. They use digital x-ray’s and he puts them up on a large computer monitor right in front of you and he explains everything to you while he’s looking at it so you understand what he’s looking for. He also uses a new ultrasonic method of cleaning your teeth which is completely painless. No digging, scraping, messy, bloody, painful cleaning anymore!
