About Lifetime Dental & Fastbraces

Fastbraces treatment here often resolves bite and TMJ issues in as little as five to nine months, according to reviews, sometimes avoiding jaw surgery.

Lifetime Dental & Fastbraces is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign, traditional braces, clear aligners, early treatment, and TMJ treatment through its Fastbraces system. Reviews describe the doctor correcting bites and crossbites in shorter timeframes than traditional braces, with several patients saying jaw surgery was avoided. The office itself comes up often as clean and calming, which several reviewers say helps with dental anxiety. A handful of reviews raise concerns about billing, including disputed charges and insurance issues.

They always take care of me when i’m there. Above all they are always kind and professional. I’ve had my fast braces for almost 2 months now and I already see a noticeable difference. I was suffering from TMJ pain for about a month and couldn’t open my mouth to drink water or yawn nonetheless. Definitely recommend everyone at this location..also have great general dentists as well! Might as well get everything done under one roof to save yourself some time!

They're after cash, could care less about what you need. I went there for the first time for a regular cleaning and it went as follows: The Visit: - They tried to convince me to get braces multiple times after I repeatedly said no, told them that I'm >30 years old and also most definitely don't need them - They said I needed an advanced level of cleaning that's a level below deep cleaning. When I refused, she said that it would be "NEGLECT" if they didn't perform it and I HAD to get it - Luckily, it was late in the day and they didn't move on to the cleaning - I was charged out of pocket for the check up even though they confirmed insurance would cover a standard cleaning; I never said yes to the additional services that they charged. Both tests were NOT agreed to for my BASIC teeth cleaning. I honestly don't think they even performed them. Below are the two codes that my insurance REFUSED as they rightfully should have for a standard cleaning: --> Caries Test (D0425) --> Case Present (D9450) Next: I had a bad feeling from the experience and opted to go to a different dentist to actually do the cleaning. When I asked Lifetime to send my dental records that my insurance ALREADY paid for, they would not release them without me paying $75 - clearly in violation of CA law. I have moved across the nation several times and never gotten a fee for releasing my x-rays that were already paid for. After numerous exchanges back and forth as well as citing the law, they eventually said "they'll waive it this time" however they would MAIL it to me and I should expect in 30 business days. Besides again breaking the law given records need to be released within 15 days, they maliciously opted to mail it vs. send electronically just to make things difficult for me. ONCE it came in the mail, I didn't get official x-rays, instead blurry screenshots on a single piece of paper (photo attached in the review). I have given them many opportunities to make this right and instead they consistently chose the petty route - hence the review. New Dentist: - They confirmed that I don't need ANY level of advanced cleaning or braces and my teeth are fine. They also don't charge for release of records if they were already paid for.

I had an emergency, broke a crown. I called and was able to schedule an immediate appointment. Came in, received a temporary crown and all the necessary steps were taken to get my final replacement in less than 2 weeks! Loved all the staff, they were professional and extremely helpful. I’m extremely happy with every aspect of service, staff and my new crown and would highly recommend Lifetime Dental for all Dental matters. Thank you guys!

Best experience I’ve had in a very long time with a Dental office. Aida was amazing, putting in my crown and ensuring a smooth transition with no pain or discomfort whatsoever, was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed her patience and attention to detail when it came to putting in and securing my new crown. Thank you very much for all your hard work It was a favorable experience all around!!!

I’ve been going to Lifetime Dental for both my dental care and orthodontic treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They are incredibly patient, thorough, and truly care about their patients’ long-term results, not just quick fixes. Every visit is smooth, and the team is always welcoming and professional. I’ve seen great progress with my orthodontic treatment and feel completely confident in their care. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality dental or ortho work! UPDATE: I completed my treatment and I couldn't be happier with the results. The treatment has made a huge difference and has truly helped fix my TMJ problem. A special thank you to Dr. Azadeh Afzali for her incredible care, professionalism, and expertise throughout the entire process.
