Twin Oaks Family Dentistry

I have been a patient at Twin Oaks Family Dentistry since 1999 and, overall, I have been quite pleased with the care that I have received! Dr. Babak Hosseini does very good work, he is very personable, and he can be rather comic! Finally, the rest of the staff has treated me in a friendly, professional manner!

I went to Dr Hosseini’s office to replace a crown. He explained everything very clearly and answered my questions before starting the process. It took 2 weeks for the crown to be made but when it was finally ready he placed it in less than 20 minutes! It’s very comfortable and it looks great too.

Dr. Hosseini is a detail-​oriented and straightforward dentist. He gets the job done nicely without wasting your time with marketing sweet talk. He lets the quality of his work do the talking. If you expect your dentist to be a showman and an entertainer who sings false praise to you, this is not the place for you. But if you want your dentist to be actually a dentist who takes dentistry seriously, you’ll like him.

I recently switched my insurance from a HMO to. PPO and because Dr. Housenni (?) is literally across the street from me I thought I’d give him a shot. 4 months prior to switching to Twin Oaks Family Dentistry I had a check up and cleaning at my other dentist and was given a clean bill of health. One of my filling fell out so I set up an appointment with TOFD to get it filled. I showed up at my appointment time, waited about 20 minutes (not bad) and was seen by the dentist. That day I never got my filling, just an exam and x-​Rays, but I was told that I would receive a call from the receptionist to set up another appointment.
A WEEK went by until I finally decided to call them to inquire about my appointment. They called me back and informed me that Dr. Housenni recommends that I get a deep cleaning, have an old silver filling removed and replaced (nothing wrong with it though) and replaced which involved bonding, fill the tooth that I originally set the appointment up for, use sealant on one of my molars that had a blemish but it may not prevent a cavity from forming, and all for a total co-​payment of about $ 1,000. That’s with my insurance. Remember, the last check up I had 4 months ago I was told I was fine. I had braces for a year and a half and prior to that you’re required to get everything perfect before they put them on. I feel like I’m being ripped off. I cancelled my appointment today and I’ll be switching dentist immediately. So much for convenience.

Dr. Hosseini explains the procedures which is very much appreciated! I have been coming to this dentist office for 15 years and I’m now bringing my kids here also! Annelle provides excellent customer service, thank for your great service!

I have been coming to this dentistry for the last 5 years. I couldn’t possibly imagine switching anywhere else. The receptionist (Anelle) is wonderful. She is courteous, efficient, knowledgeable and above all always has a cheery and helpful personality. Certainly makes my dentist app much easier

I’ve had a great experience coming to Twin Oaks Family Dentistry. Dr. Hosseini is a excellent dentist with great customer service. I’m usually a nervous type of person when going to the dentist and this place made me feel at ease. I’m happy with my two implants and all my dental procedures. Hopefully this will remain my main dental place of choice for many years to come.

Dr. Hosseini is a wonderful dentist. We have been going to him now for 15 years and he takes very good care of us. He’s the first dentist my wife can go to and she feels no pain or discomfort. Very nice staff working there also.

I can’t believe I am rating a dentist with 5 stars but they have been nothing but nice to me. I was really concerned after reading the other reviews but my mother assured me that I would like Dr. Hosseini. He is excellent and I trusted him to remove my 4 wisdom teeth yesterday. He was very compassionate. Over the past 3 weeks I have been there 4 times and each time the medical assistants were also very nice. The receptionist is super nice and explains everything to. Six months ago I had gone to another dentist in Chula Vista and they had told me I had 17 cavities. Turns out I just need sealant. Glad to have found Twin Oaks. Also Dr. Hosseini is a male dentist, I am not sure about the woman dentist. I have only been seen by him.

I was just referred to this office and I can finally say I am happy to have my teeth fixed. I had been seen by different dentists; however, no one could fix my dental problems. But I am so excited to have finally been landed in this office. The doctor first explained to me what was the problem, and later he let me know what he was doing with my teeth. I am quite satisfied with his expertise. I have no hesitation to recommend him.

If I could I would have given this place a negative rating. The receptionist was so rude when I walked in, and the dental assistants were rude too. The dentist himself was the rudest person there! I had to wait three hours before they finally started my procedure. I told the the Dentist I was not just petrified of dentists in general, but that I am severly phobic of them due to a horrible experience I had as a kid. He didn’t care. He spent two minutes with me then said this was what’s wrong in such a rude way. While they worked on me, it was one of the most painful experiences in my life. I was literally screaming bloody murder because I was in so much pain, and whenever I told him he kept saying you had a shot of novacaine, your fine, despite me telling him I have a natural high tolerance to novacaine. While in the chair he had to keep telling me to calm down or I’ll faint. Shouldn’t that be an indication that something is wrong?! The only reason I went to this guy was because my insurance referred me to him! Never again! The pain was excrutiating, and he could have cared less.

Having had my insurance switched by my husbands employer I was forced to choose a new dentist and randomly chose here. My daughter had fallen and injured her tooth. We waited over an hour, the room they took us too was filled with plastic totes and EVERYTHING was covered with a white powdery residue. I should have walked out but due to the urgency of the situation I stayed. The dentist finally came in about an another 30 min later. She was obviously rushing, and when speaking came at a loss for words, I had to help finish her sentences. A dentist should be able to explain things to me without my help. I WON’T be going back

THE worst dentist experience I have ever had! First I had to wait FOREVER to see the stupid dentist. If I have an appointment at 8am, I want to see the DR at at least 8:30am, not 9:15. When I finally got to the chair to be seen, I was horrified at the conditions of the facility. I felt like I was meeting some black market dentist in a 3^rd world country. Then they tried telling me that I needed work on a cavity and that I should get a «protective cap» on a stain on the back of my tooth. I agreed to the fix the cavity, but when the Dr did it, it took maybe 20 minutes. I felt that it was VERY rushed. The tooth now bothers me often because it hurts and is very rough to the touch. My new dentist says that it was a large filling and done very close to a nerve. Now I have to go to a specialist to see that it isn’t interfering with a nerve. Either way, I have to have it redone and possibly get a root canal! HOLY HELL I HATE THEM SO MUCH! Then my cleaning was POORLY done. I don’t even think she cleaned and polished them. I even said something and she asure me otherwise.
If you like to be sold crap you don’t need and fast dentistry, go here. If you don’t like ROOT CANALS DONT GO

I agree — DO NOT GO THERE. I was sent to this place by my insurance company. Big mistake! What a waste of time! I was on time, but waited in the waiting room for 45 minutes, then even longer in the dentist chair.
The dentist was very rude! He saw me for 5 minutes gave me a vague diagnosis and refused to explain what I needed to have done. I have always had problems with my teeth, suffered a lot, a paid thousands of dollars. However I don’t think I deserve to be made feel bad about it. I have always taken good care of my teeth! The dentist was not sympathetic or sensitive at all. He made me cry about my teeth. I called back and told him about how rude he was.
They can burn my file too!!!

DO NOT GO HERE. I was going to Twin Oaks for years, mostly against my will. I felt their dentists and ortho were fairly incompetent and had a strong tendency to constantly blame any issues I had on the fact that I never completed my braces. That irritated me and I’d gotten a second opinion that indicated my bite was NOT the cause of my problems. In any case, all of this led me to leave Twin Oaks. Now here’s why I say I am LIVID and will NEVER go to this dental office again.
The last time I visited Twin Oaks was probably June or July of 2011. I was given a clean bill of health. No cavities, no problems. I was forced to see the ortho for my dentist that day and I felt he lacked thoroughness in his exam of me, but I figured he knew what he was doing, and we had done xrays so if I had anything, it’d show up and get taken care of. In the past 4 years of visiting Twin Oaks, I was never told I had a cavity.
I switched dentists and had my first cleaning with them today, including xrays. The xrays alone revealed no less than 8 cavities, which all must be filled, as well as two or three cavities that we are merely watching. I am LIVID. My new dentist told me these cavities should have been caught 6 months ago. To quote my new dentist, «They should have caught AT LEAST one of these.» All of them were small, but teetering on the edge where they’ll start heading for the nerve. I am SO pissed off at the clear negligence of my last exam at Twin Oaks and I’m only lucky that none of them are in root canal territory.
If you value your teeth, do not go to Twin Oaks. I will never be back again. They can burn my file for all I care.

This dentistry is ridiculous!!! We made an appointment for me and my sister and the day of the appointment they call us that the dentist has gone on vacation… the day OF they tell us?! Then they reschedule us for 3 weeks later! Finally the day of our second appointment, half an hour before the appointment my mom calls to ask for directions and they tell her that it’s Thursday and they don’t see kids on Thursday’s. Then why did you make our appointment on a Thursday?! Out of anger my mother decides to cancel her appointment, which was the following week. They tell her they have no record of her. What is going on at this place?! They are unorganized and unprofessional and have horrible service.
