South Coast Dentistry

Dr. Maleki is the man and Really cares about his patients. :) Seriously stop looking and choose Dr. Maleki. I have been coming here for some time now and just recently started to do Invisalign with Dr. Maleki. Its only been a few months with my Invisalign retainers that I see a major difference.

Dr. Maleki is the man. I moved here from NJ two years ago and needed a new dentist. I found him through Unilocal and the 5 star reviews were spot on. I also have started and finished Invisalign through Dr. Maleki’s office. All in all, a piece of cake. Now my teeth are clean AND straight. I like this office so much, I made my girlfriend go here too. Let’s face it, nobody likes going to the dentist, but Dr. Maleki and his staff make it the best experience it can be.

I took my teenage daughter for a consultation this morning for Invisalign with Dr Maleki. She loved how nice, friendly and funny he was. I am so happy we found this amazing doctor. And his office is covered in Lakers memorabilia. I am a happy dad!

Dr. Maleki and his staff are the absolute best! From my very first visit they have been so friendly and helpful. But the best part is– my teeth have never looked better! I would highly recommend Dr. Maleki and his staff!

My husband is terrified of the dentist, which has caused his teeth, and overall dental hygiene to suffer. His teeth got so bad, that he had no choice but to go see a dentist. Refusing to go back to the dentist he was seeing, who jacked up his mouth even more. I had to find a new dentist. I searched high and low and came across Dr. Maleki at South Coast Dentistry. He came highly recommended and had the best Unilocal reviews in all of Orange County. I saw a lot of patients saying that they were terrfied of the dentist but that Dr. Maleki has changed that. I called and made an appointment, they were able to get my husband in right away. I thank God for finding Dr. Maleki, as he is truly a dental angel! He is patient, and kind, understanding, knowledgeable, intelligent, and best of all he calms my husband, and makes him feel relaxed. He was able to have 4 teeth extracted at one time with just laughing gas! Before he would have to be knocked out completely. We are so thankful to Dr. Maleki and his entire team/​staff. I keep recommending South Coast Dentistry to everyone!

We love Dr. Maleki and all of the staff at South Coast Dentistry! I will be honest and say that I hate dentists. Okay, not any particular dentist, just dentists in general! I must have had a horrible experience as a child! But Dr. Maleki is not only an honest and great person, but also takes his time with me, understanding my fear and doing everything he can to make any visit pain free. I recommend SCoast highly!

Moving to a new area is stressful. Having to start over to find a new doctor, dentist, etc. is a nerve racking process. I relied on Unilocal to find me a new dentist and I could not be more pleased. My experience was excellent! Everyone was so friendly and the level of treatment was top notch. I’m so pleased I have found a wonderful dentist.

When my family relocated to Aliso Viejo from out of state we selected South Coast Dentistry based on all the great reviews on Unilocal,and Dr. Maleki and the team have very much lived up to their reputation. Dr. Maleki took care of my dental issues and made a referral to an excellent oral surgeon for extraction of my wisdom teeth. I was very nervous about having my wisdom teeth extracted, as I am a person with a very low tolerance for dental procedures, however the whole experience was easy and painless. I selected the option to sleep through the procedure and they gave me pills for the pain to bring home. My gum health needed work as well, as I was overdue for cleanings but that has improved greatly with an initial deep cleaning and follow up cleanings. Additionally, we did not have dental insurance so we elected to use the in house insurance option. My wife and 5 year old son are also very happy with the experience here. The friendly environment, attention to detail, and thorough and high quality work are all very much appreciated. Thank you for getting my family’s dental health back on track. Cheers!

From the minute I walked through the door I felt welcome, Vicki was so nice at the reception l I had a 2 pm appointment and was brought back right at 2 pm first star! From Jufer taking all digital xrays to Veronika my hygienist teaching me the right way to floss… never had a clue! Dr Maleki was amazing he explained everything thoroughly and I realized I didn’t need veneers but a little realignment with invisalign!!! Shima got my insurance to even help pay for my Invisalign too! 5 stars all the way! Thanks guys can’t wait for straight teeth!

In general, the service that I received was adequate by the dentist and the dental hygienist.
The issues that I had was with the billing of my services. The billing department filed my claims incorrectly and had the checks sent to me. I inquired with the office if they could work with my insurance company to have the paymetns sent directly to them. They agreed they would do this.
I did not hear back by phone, but I received a bill in the mail a few days after this phone call. They did not work with my insurance company as indicated. The amount that was billed exceeded the amount that was sent to me by my insurance company.
I called again to see if the amount owed can be adjusted to match what had been reimbursed to me. I figured that it would be an easy adjustment since the amount was $ 6 and the inconvenience that I had experienced due to the billing error.
There was no attempt to solve by concern. Due to the billing errors and the refusal to adjust my bill by a meager $ 6, I will find another dentist.

Just retired to CA and the Aliso Viejo area. Researched dentists and chose POURIA MALEKI and his South Coast Dentistry group, based on others reviews. Cleaning and initial exam absolutely painless and perfect. Due to poor dentistry in my previous 25 years, the group spotted 2 teeth in need of crowns. Some consultation, pricing, and immediate treatment couldn’t have been more professional. All in the group are friendly, efficient and sincere. Wife and I will use Dr. Maleki for years to come and recommend to all who are looking for a modern, professional staff indeed!!! :-)

I spent two hours at this office for cleaning. The first hour and 15 minutes with a bunch of used car sales and x-​rays. This doctor has no respect for the time of his patients, and developing a clean solid, loyal, honest customer base. In my opinion, this office does not have the patient’s best interest at heart and they’re more interested in looking for the upsell, than my health. They didn’t even finish the job, and I will be following up with a more competent dentist practice.
** I have filed complaints to three state agencies for Dr. posting my personal data, and medical records to a public forum. I will obtain an attorney to follow up with my civil rights

I recently relocated to Aliso Viejo and had a dental issue that needed prompt attention.
From the moment I contacted the office through the visit and the follow up, the experience was exceptional.
Dr. Maleki and the staff are great.

I liked the 21^st century dentistry experience :) Quick electronic x-​rays, actual pictures of my teeth. I really liked to see close up photos of teeth along with explanation of what’s going on. You see for yourself if a certain filling needs to be redone.
The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable, some times I’m like a kid — I ask a lot of questions just out of curiosity, which they are happy to answer and explain to me.
The doctor has is precise and quick in his work, and seems like a great guy, very personable.

I absolutely HATE the dentist, the smells, the sounds, the masks, they are all so scary, BUT Dr. Maleki is AMAZING!!! He and his staff will take their time and explain what you need, prices, and recommendations. They are so friendly and down-​to-​earth, you almost forget you’re at the dentist. They call, email, and text, to make sure you are doing well and don’t have any questions. I recently had my wisdom teeth taken out and you hear so many horror stories about how painful it was, I might be a rare case but mine was a cake walk thanks to my oral surgeon Dr. Vahedi. I would recommend them to anyone!!!

This was hands down the best experience I’ve had in a dentist office. Clean comfortable and quick service! I was treated for a broken tooth that was originally quoted by another dentist as a «loss». Dr. Maleki was so kind and thorough. He not only treated my immediate problem but helped me game plan the future of my teeth.. He made me feel at ease and the treatment was pain free. Shima, Ghazal and Bett were absolutely professional and sensitive to my needs. I highly recommend this office for your dental care. I won’t go anywhere else.

I can’t say enough good things about this office and staffs. The entire experience, from making appointment, check in at the front desk, to a brief tour of the office, to my time with Dr. M, to check out (NO SURPRISE CHARGES) was first class.
The treatment plan coordinator and other staffs in front desk helped me understand all charges up front and broke down insurance covered portions so I knew exactly how much would be out of pocket, which I really appreciated.
In short, visiting the dentist has always been something I’ve put on my list of items to procrastinate on. I no longer feel that way. I highly recommend this dentist and his practice everyone here is very friendly.

Wonderful staff from the waiting room to the Dentist’s office to check-​out. Pleasant, welcoming, and professional. Hubby was impressed by the integrated technology.
Dr. is kind compassionate and a talented dentist. Everyone there is wonderful!

Dr. Maleki is by far the best dentist I have ever had. The visit is always smooth; Dr. Maleki and his staff are knowledgeable, friendly and professional from start to finish.
This is a warm and friendly office. The customer service is top notch. His office staffs are very professional and very supportive of both the patients and Dr. Maleki. Phone calls are promptly returned, the attitude and demeanor over the phone is polite, courteous and efficient. They do have discounted rate and good promotions for cash patients too.
My sister could finish all her treatments with good prices, even though she was cash patient and didn’t have dental insurance.
Their treatment coordinator is very nice, she takes time to explain what they are doing and answers all questions you have, detail of coverage and co payments before staring the treatment,
His dental assistants are very nice, methodical, patient and gentle.
Dr. M is very honest about what needs to be done to care for my teeth and about things that don’t need to be done. He is also honest about what needs to be done now and what can wait. He makes you feel relaxed and treats you like a friend. I used to hate going to the dentist, but with Dr. Maleki it’s like visiting with an old friend. He is very experienced and walks you through everything he is doing to your teeth. Chit chats about LAKERS.
Their billing department really goes the extra mile with your insurance company. It says a great deal about the management of the practice that they do not have the typical turnover you see in most dental offices.
It means a lot to see the same faces who really know you instead of having to explain your whole story to someone new every time you come in to have anything done.
Amazing cleaning, the hygiene took measures before staring my cleaning, she explained why do I have so much bleeding and how do I need to take care of my teeth and gums. By having my deep cleaning, she helped me stop bleeding and just smiled and assured me it was no big deal, and it wasn’t a big deal at all simply because I was in good hands.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Maleki and his crew. They are simply the best. (Better than all the rest!)
Last but not least, they are extremely great with timing; I never had to wait more than 5 mins. No I’m not exaggerating!
«Dr. Maleki is a talented, down to earth guy!»
Having a trustworthy dentist who makes you feel comfortable every time you walk in the door is priceless.

So happy right now my tooth feels better than new!!! Thank you Dr Maleki for listening to my story and actually taking the time to fix my tooth properly :)
So back story I chipped my tooth over 10 years ago and every dentist who’s tried to restore it has unfortunately failed; basically I’d pay they’d fix it and a week to a month later it was back to being chipped. So excited I feel like this time it’s actually fixed and doesn’t feel flimsy!!! So happy!!! :)
