Brighton Dental

I recently had a cleaning as well as multiple appointments to remove old fillings and replace them with new ones. It's a huge project, so I still have a couple appointments ahead of me and I'm finding myself actually looking forward to going back to the Brighton Dental office. I'm just about 50 years old now and have visited dentists regularly for more than a quarter of my life. Up until this point, I had NEVER had a dental experience like I had at Brighton.

I was comfortable and cared for the whole time, and how new an experience this was in a medical environment was only further imprinted on me when Dr. Woods leaned over me and said "I have one rule...zero pain" at the point where I was feeling most vulnerable. Because it was about to *get real* on my third molar and the tools had come out. Despite the dental issues I had been having (will spare everyone the details), she kept her promise. If there was even the slightest wrinkle of my eyebrow she'd stop what she was doing and check in with me.

So, I've been throwing the Brighton name around anytime anyone mentions that they need to get dental work done, and I even sent an email out to my coworkers since we're all on the same plan. No one enjoys going to the dentist much so I can't promise it will be all peaches for everyone, but I feel absolutely certain the experience will be better than wherever they're going now.

I have had trouble with dentists in the past, so when I moved to San Diego I was nervous about finding a new one. I don't have a fear of dentist, it's just really hard to find a good one that is reasonably priced and will work with you. I had a colleague recommend Dr. Stevens after he had his wisdom teeth pulled last minute on a budget and loved him. I have been going to him now for 2 years. I had a crown re-done and he worked with me on payments and did amazing work. He even helped me with a retainer to straighten out my front teeth months before my wedding. He's personable and does great work! I have referred everyone I know to Dr. Stevens, and everyone who has gone has had the same experience. Even my husband, who HATES going to the dentist, was thoroughly impressed. I am moving from San Diego in a few weeks and I'm getting in one last appointment before I go. Dr. Stevens will be one of the things I miss most about San Diego...it's just plain hard to find a good dentist!

I am a big wimp when it comes to going to the dentist. But Dr. Stevens and his staff were super friendly and made me feel super comfortable. I had to have a filling fixed and it didn't hurt and it was done perfect.. I definitely recommend them!

Yes, Dr. Stevens and his staff are very nice - but the quality of work is inferior. It also took 2 times as long as stated (3 months!). And they did not seem to care that I was not satisfied...I will have the work redone when I can afford it...

I didn't know what to do about my ugly front teeth...I had crowns placed about 10 years ago and I have always hated them...Dr.Stevens placed new beautiful, natural looking crowns and I LOVE THEM!
