About Oakland Dental Care – Danesh Bastani, DDS & Associates
Dr. Bastani is repeatedly credited with recommending only necessary work and steering patients away from costly, unneeded procedures.
Oakland Dental Care is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign and traditional braces, though most reviews focus on routine and restorative dental work under Dr. D. Bastani. Reviewers highlight his honesty about what treatment is actually needed, with several noting he talked them out of unnecessary cosmetic or costly work rather than upselling. Many also describe procedures like numbing, root canals, and extractions as far more comfortable than they expected, which helps ease dental anxiety for nervous patients. The office is described as modern and well-equipped, including an in-house crown lab that allows same-day crowns.

Total scammer. Went for a cleaning, was in and out of the chair in 3 minutes for a “full cleaning.” Zero effort or care.
Dr. Bastani has a great hand and helpful disposition. His same day crowns are wonderful! I recommend his work.
Super nice and friendly team, Dr. Bastani is excellent- he really cares about his patients.
Most painless novacane injection I’ve ever had! Dentist is fast efficient and painless. Plus, I love the unique office space. Front desk staff always very nice
So grateful to have found Dr Bastani and his team. He truly is a 5-star provider. He has a high-tech office and a very nice and competent front desk and dental assistant team. I found him to be knowledgeable, honest, gentle and with a good sense of humor. I needed to get a crown for my implant which was overdue longer than I'd like to admit. Throughout the whole process, he went the extra mile to be thoughtful about setting the crown up for long term success. He even offered to make the crown in-house at his lab when the outside lab was delayed. I am so happy to have found a good dentist and recommend him and his team to anyone needing dental care!
