Brookside Smiles

I went in for the first time on June 22 filled out the paper work and was seen with five minutes or less then they took x-rays and I sat in the office Green chair for about 3 minutes and they said the doctor can see me next month to take my wisdom teeth out it was so quick I recommend people to go to Brookside smiles for the best experience and dental work and the staff are so polite nice and they have such a clean facility

I sought out Brookside Smiles because my housemate is also a patient here and like me has medi-cal dental insurance through the Health Plan of San Joaquin County. Over the several months she has been a patient I became very impressed with the level of care she received in terms of the number of procedures and prosthetics this practice was able to get authorized for coverage under this plan (a crowns, a new plate, composite fillings) in addition to a deep cleaning, full mouth X-rays and dental exam and treatment plan with the dentist (not his tech or assistant). Having public assistance for dental care before, one quickly learns that most of the really best practice procedures aren't available under medi-cal funded plans. The focus is on prevention and most new restorative treatments aren't available. It was never clear to me if that was because it was too administratively expensive and time consuming to ferret out approvals that were there but not within easy reach, or just simply the limitations imposed by public assistance. I'm grateful to ahave any assistance I'm not griping. Rather I'm excited that a dental practice seems to understand how to work within that agency and just things done. So I became a patient and i am now waiting for approval for my first procedure.I don't know if my results will be as good as my housemates. Everyone's situation is different and so each outcome will be different. But given that you have to choose a dentist on the basis of something, I decided to go with a practice that demonstrated they get things done somehow someway beyond what I've ever seen in other practices. So far I've not been disappointed.

Fantastic dental office. The staff was super attentive and patient(even though I was difficult at first). I'm so happy to have found my mom a dentist office that accepts her insurance (Denti-cal) and is not a run down hole in the wall. This place is in a beautiful building, with a welcoming office and very clean. The dentist was very knowledgeable about what would be covered by insurance and the manager sat us down and walked us through the entire treatment plan. Overall great experience!
