Leland Porteous DDS & Garrett Porteous DDS

After going to several Dentists in the Danville area I finally found Dr Lee Porteous. This Doctor is thorough and honest. I didn’t feel like he was trying to upsell me on the first visit. Nice staff. Highly recommend this Dentist.

What a great staff and friendly environment here. Totally professional but fun. My first new dentist in a long time and very happy I switched.

I recently got my wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Garrett. Out of fear, I have put off this procedure for years now (which made the procedure a little more difficult). Everyone did such an amazing job making me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I really couldn’t have asked for more from Dr. Garrett or the staff here. He educated me and explained every step along the way and followed up a few hours after the extractions. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist or oral surgeon!

Great dentist practice! The front desk is always busy and kind to talk to! They keep you smiling even after you had a bunch of cavities worked on!

After having researched dentists in the Danville area, my family and I are pleased that we chose the Porteous dental office. How convenient having a dentist in our neighborhood! The entire practice is very professional and friendly, and their work is excellent and meticulous. Marilyn, the office manager, is efficient and very organized when handling any insurance questions, bills, and appointments. Dr. Garrett is gentle and explains what he is doing to your teeth step-​by-​step as he works on them. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Thank you!

Family of 5… all patients for 3 years… multiple services and all happy. Nice staff and doctors very caring. Highly recommended.

Dr Garrett is the best. I wouldn’t recommend any one else if you live in the Bay Area. These people know what they’re doing and keep you informed at all times. I’ll be with Porteous dental for life! Thank you for everything!!!

I’ve never had a better experience at a dentist! Felt like I’d been coming here for years and had a comfortable cleaning from Mary. I’ll be back!

I brought my niece in to extract 4 wisdom teeth. Their entire staff, DDS included were extremely compassionate and professional. They are hands down the BEST! The oral surgeon even followed up with a call to our home to check on her. Her teeth were extracted on Wednesday afternoon. The bleeding stopped that night, she has minimal swelling, nothing noticeable and was up and about, in the house, the next day. I think that speaks volumes about her Oral Surgeon, Garrett. Thank you very much.

This Dental office is so professional and compassionate. They take exceptionally good care of their patients oral health but also see them as a total person. I have definitely found the perfect Dental Practice for my family.

Just came back from dentist’s office. My appointment started on time. The hygenist took her time cleaning my teeth and I did not feel rushed. She put some work in cleaning and not just trying to finish quickly. One happy patient here, Vicky Yeung.

Just had my second visit (exam and cleaning) and it was as good as my first. Dr. Porteous’ office is an excellent dental practice. They are warm, friendly, professional, and extremely competent. First, Dr. Lee Porteous and his techs did an very thorough interview and discussion with me on my first visit to make sure they understood my needs and any issues I had. Then they performed a very comfortable cleaning, took x-​rays, and did a complete exam. Along the way, they were very kind, attentive and happily answered all of my questions. Plus the office takes care of all my insurance paperwork and I haven’t had to do a thing to process my claims.
Now on my second visit, I saw that their attention and great service isn’t just for first-​timers. One of the things I really like their is that I never get the sense that I’m being rushed along to get to the next patient. My teeth cleaning and checkup was very smooth and they were focused on doing a great job and being sure I was comfortable the whole time. Finally, their conscientious of my time and are very punctual. I’m happily recommending Dr. Porteous to friends in the area.

Having recently moved to the area, I’m so grateful I found this dental office on Unilocal.I truly had the best experience I’ve ever had with a dental cleaning and exam. Five stars for friendly, efficient and excellent customer service. From the front desk, to the dental assistant, to the hygienist, ending with Dr. Porteous, all were awesome. I appreciate their attention to detail and evident commitment to provide the safest, most progressive and minimally invasive dentistry.

I had a chipped crown on my FRONT tooth. Extremely difficult to match the shape and color. We worked together with his lab to get everything just right. He is a perfectionist, even his temporary crowns are pretty darn good. When we finished he said he did not want to see them chip again so he gave me a custom mouth guard. Excellent service and attention to detail.

A fantastic dentist! They are very personable and detailed. My mouth was a mess when I started here, but the doctor was able to get me back to a healthy place. I am really appreciative of the quality of the work and the gentleness with which they do it.

Love, love, love this place. My husband and I just moved back from Chicago. Had a wonderful dentist in Chicago so I wanted to find that here too. Saw this practice on Unilocal and decided to give them a try. It is a family run business which I think is great and the staff is wonderful. They’re very good about going over the billing with you so no surprises. I am having a implant and so far so great. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! Also the dentist cleaned my teeth. Never had that done. He told the first time patients he likes to do the first cleaning. Great service!

Convenient, fast and nice. Liking my new dentist. Recommend them for any dental work in the Blackhawk area.

We are new to the area and finally had to find a new dentist for our girls as well as us. I went into Dr Porteous’s office and the front desk staff was great. They greeted me and answered all my questions. I had mentioned that I was going to bring my girls to a pediatric dentist and they told me that their office offers all the same perks plus if either one of my girls need braces they can stay at this office all the way. Pediatric offices would have to refer you out.
The whole family just had their appts and it was a GREAT experience. I am not a bit dentist fan but I was made comfortable. Mary was very informative and made my teeth cleaning effortless. My girls did great too. Dr Garrett came out to let me know how their teeth looked etc.
I already have our next 6 month checkup in the books.

I’m a regular again!
When I was a kid and all through my young adult life, I went to another dentist every 6 months. I stopped going because I just didn’t feel like I was a valued patient there.
I stopped going to that dentist for longer than I care to admit. One day I had a tooth ache, and it was worse than I could suck up. To the office of Porteous I went.
I won’t lie, it wasn’t a walk in the park, but they fixed the problem and I was pain free within a few days. I’ve been going here for 2 – 3 years now. I’m a regular dentist goer again. What I like about this place is that they are honest. My old dentist just showered me w/​compliments. Oh your teeth are great, you brush great, blah blah.
But they keep it real here. I rarely flossed before coming here, and now I do pretty much daily. (its still not my favorite activity ever) They told me that my teeth are great, but my gums, not so much… I was brushing wrong and needed to floss more. 2 – 3 years later, more flossing, a new and better toothbrush, a water pic, and things are looking up. Teeth are great, gums are way better and I have not had any pain in my teeth since that first visit.
A plus for me is that they have some kind of Internet radio, so its not KOIT. So during my visit, I don’t hear 50 times that KOIT is arbitron rated number 1 in the work place. THANK YOU FOR THAT!!! Commercial free music!!!
PS, this place is a little out of the way for me, but its worth the drive!!!

I had my first appointment a couple of days ago. The are all so nice. I ended up showing up late because i couldn’t find it and they were so nice about it.
They cleaning was awesome, I hate going to the Dentist but this experience has defiantly changed that.
