Shirley Santos, DDS

I’m so glad I found Dr. Shirley Santos! I was greeted by office staff with a smile and they were very helpful in answering any questions I had. Dr. Santos made me feel at ease and continuously checked on me during my procedure to make sure I was comfortable. The office was very clean and all of her equipment looked state of the art! I don’t think that you will find any other dental office as wonderful as this one!

Changed my dentist because of her. Very professional. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Keeps you at ease. Very thorough, detailed oriented and informative about procedures you need to have it done. Explains to you what procedure your insurance that doesn’t cover.
Here is my story, I am a new client here. I dumped my previous dentist for more than 10 or 15 years because of how they treated me. Don’t get me wrong my previous dentist was great and all… office was all up to date, its just I wasnt given enough information that I need for my procedure to have it done. I had a root canal that «was old and infected.» My previous dentist told me that I need to hve my root canal extracted and have an implant done… and its expensive $$$$ to have it done. I will refer you out to see a specialist… That was the only explanation I got. I just disregard it for my tooth was not bothering me. Came to Dr Santos because my wisdom teeth were bothering me. Referred by the CEO where I work. My plan, was to have my wisdom teeth to be just extracted and thats it. Here, at Dr. Santos office, they told me same problem about my infected tooth where the root canal was and the procedure that I need. She told me and her assistant Maria the few options I have, to have this procedure taken care of. Yes! It is expensive. They provided me few options to pay through payment plan or Care Credit. My insurance paid for all the extractions with a small difference i hve to pay out of pocket. Never heard of Care Credit… they explained it to me in details. Tooth implants are considered cosmetic surgery. Dr. Santos also told me «the one who will do the procedure, will be Dr. Aguila and he comes to my office even though he has his own clinic.» A+++ there. Once, all payment arrangements are taking care of… booked me to see Dr. Aguila in immediately. Dr. Santos did my yearly cleaning first prescribed antibiotics and pain meds until I see Dr. Aguila. Dr. Aguila is amazing. I didnt feel any pain when he injected the lidocaine. I was awake in my procedure from extractions to the placement of my implant. (Oh yeah, I had all my wisdom teeth removed the same day as well). Lots of pressure but pain free. He has very light hands. Very professional. Awesome Dentist. To make the long story short, I had the procedure done. Extractions done, bone graft done (due to bone loss), and implant done… and now I am just waiting for my crown to be in placed by Dr. Aguila. This is five star indeed in my book. You will not regret it.

This dentist office great ! I’ve been going there for two years now. I’m a young adult and I been looking for a dentist I’m so happy to have found her ! Super friendly staff and great service !!

Dr santos is the best dentist ever! She is very friendly and knows her stuff. Her office is nice and clean and her staff is super nice! Couldn’t have asked for a better dentist! I brought in my family too and she took care of them including my 9 month old son. I recommend her to anyone looking for a family friendly dentist!

Dr. Santos and her team are wonderful. Very caring and service oriented. She fixed my crown and fixed my tooth. I found her advertisement through Homefront Tustin magazine. Mahalo.

I called a bunch of dental offices trying to see who would welcome a walk-​in for today and this was the only office I called where I was greeted warmly on the phone and told to just come in and I would be taken care of. The staff was extremely friendly and professional and the place looked beautiful and well-​kempt. I got my x-​rays done, and dove straight into getting a couple of my cavities filled. Shirley was quick, concise and also warm and caring. They fixed a cavity on my front tooth with white filling and you can’t even tell where it used to be. My entire experience was the best i’ve ever had for going to the dentist. Everything and everyone here is top-​quality and I will definitely be coming here for all my dental needs.

She is the best Dentist ever. She has the most modern equipment. She is pain free. Her and her staff are friendly, courteous, and professional. I highly recommend her.

I think I’m not different than most people and HATE finding a new dentist. My old dentist moved to Oregon and I had no choice. I went to Dr. Santos today and her office is beautiful, new and totally clean inside. They are friendly and even though I need some work done, I did not think their estimate was over the top. I think her prices are reasonable and I would recommend this dentist highly.

My son had a wonderful experience. The Dr. did an excellent job. You can definitely count on us as repeat customers.
