Nice people on the surface but TERRIBLE dentists. Too bad you can't put ZERO stars! My experience is with Dr. Salvatierra.

I had sever pain, which they took advantage of. I needed a root canal and a crown, which he provided. Absolutely HORRIBLE job. Within a few short months my pain returned as did an infection. After antibiotics ran their course I went in for a follow up - the pain was still there. He saw the issue but couldn't fix his own shotty work and referred me to a specialist. Now I had to have his work redone by someone else & pay for it all over again to this new "specialist"; which was even more expensive. Dr. Salvatierra didn't refund any of his terrible work or cover any of the rework the other specialist had to do. I saw my regular dentist for other check-ups in-between the issues with Dr. Salvatierra. They were taking very good x-rays that show Dr. Salvatierra's terrible work and the difference between his work & the work of the new "specialist". They compared Dr. Salvatierra's work to work they've seen in 3rd world countries. Pathetic & scary.

Making it even worse, the crown he had placed, cracked within the year; ending up breaking off piece by piece, threatening the integrity of the root canal. I then had to go in to yet another dentist, pay yet again for work Dr. Salvatierra had done, and have all the pieces left from the cracked crown removed and a new crown put in. Everything Dr. Salvatierra had done, had to be redone by others. I ended up having to pay for it 3 times over due to his mistakes & terrible work.

** Update ** - Recently another attempt was made to make this right with this office. I was promised they would look into it again and get back with me. What did they actually do? Dr. Salvatierra HAS NOW BLOCKED ME on social media & no longer takes any contact from me. Just another sign this office is only interested in your money. STAY AWAY!!!

They still, to this date: April 2020, have not made things right with my situation!
