About Elite Coral Dentistry
Dr. Mejia, who continues the practice's long-standing approach to care, personally performs extractions and treats families with several children in care at once.
Elite Coral Dentistry is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign, traditional braces, clear aligners, clear braces, and retainers. Reviews highlight Dr. Mejia's hands-on approach, including performing his own extractions rather than referring patients out, and note that he has kept up the same standard of care patients came to expect at this office. Several reviews describe the office working well for families managing multiple children's dental needs, and for patients who come in nervous about dental visits. A handful of reviews mention friction around costs, including a case where crown shade matching stretched on for over a year.

They are very kind and considerate. The doctor seems to treat his team extremely well and even checks in patients, which I have never seen any doctor ever do. The individuals who work there actually care about the job and patients. I am not in to small talk when I go to the dentist because of all the past work I have done, so I usually just want to get out of any dentist as quickly as possible, but they try with me. I appreciate the kindness.
