I've had a great experience at Fifth Avenue Dental Arts. The entire staff has been incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The hygienists and dentists are highly professional, thorough, and always take the time to explain everything clearly, making each visit comfortable and stress-free. The office is also exceptionally clean, modern, and pleasant to visit, which makes a big difference. I truly appreciate the quality of care and the positive atmosphere. I highly recommend Fifth Avenue Dental Arts to anyone looking for excellent dental care in San Diego!
I had a wonderful cleaning with Allison today. They took the time to check concerns and gave me great information on how to maintain my dental health. The staff here are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about your health.
What would I do without Dr. Zora and Stefanie!!! I've had a lifelong terror of the dentist after many bad experiences. This is genuinely the first dentist office I've been to where I feel supported and seen amidst massive amounts of dental anxiety. Stefanie the office manager is unendingly friendly and accommodating with my many cancellations, and is such a calming person to chat with pre or post treatment. Dr. Zora is one of the kindest people I've ever encountered. I've never felt safer in the dentist chair. All of the dental hygienists I've seen have been wonderful too. If this wasn’t the dentist, it would be truly a joy to see them every time. I couldn’t be more lucky to have found this place. From my first day entering with rotting teeth to now, I could not have imagined I'd come this far, all because of their support.
As a new patient, I was extremely disappointed with my experience at Fifth Avenue Dental Arts. First, there is no free parking unless you spend a significant amount on treatment. More importantly, I was scheduled for a routine teeth cleaning, but the dental hygienist refused to perform the cleaning unless I obtained authorization from my primary care doctor because I had a joint replacement over seven years ago. I have had numerous dental cleanings, deep cleanings, and other dental procedures since my joint replacement and have never been asked to provide such documentation. As a result, I left without receiving the cleaning I was scheduled for and was not even able to see the dentist. The entire experience felt unwelcoming and frustrating. Based on the poor service I received, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this office.
I love this place!!!!!! I look forward to every appointment!! I have never felt so cared for w amazing perfection, had a veneer broken and tried 2 other dentists, they couldn’t match it( my front tooth!!) You all spent 3 hours on the temp!! It was perfect The girls are so kind!!! I forgot my watch, and the kept is safe for me all wrapped up!!! The Dr is so kind, gentle, and handsome His performance was unreal Thank you all 🦷🦷🦷
