Aaron Escalante,DDS

I have hated seeing the dentist since forever. I’ve dealt with many rude and greedy dentists in the past. Finding a good dentist for me is like finding love, its rare. After my horrible experience with my last dentist, I decided to look for someone new and close by. There was one dentist I wanted to see who had amazing reviews but he was out of town for vacation so they referred me to Dr. Escalante.
Words can not describe how much I am so grateful for this office and its staff. The front desk receptionist, Julie, is so sweet. She is very kind and amazing. I was having soreness in my tooth and while Dr. Escalante was away for vacation, Julie did her best to find a good dentist to see me and help my problem. She made appointments for me and always referred me to the best dentists. She set me up with one dentist and then they told her that I would probably have to see a root canal specialist so she canceled that appointment for me and set up an appointment for one of the best endodontist in the East Bay. She always kept me updated, told me where and when to go.
Dr. Escalante is just amazing. He is very warm when you meet him. He is very gentle and tells you every step when checking your teeth. He is knowledgable about his work and does his best to explain to patients about their teeth. He is everything I want in a dentist: patient, kind, a good listener, gentle, explains clearly and overall amazing. I forgot the dental assistant’s name but she is very kind as well. The best part is when I leave his office, I’m not pissed off like I usually am after leaving the dentist!!!
Overall great office and I think this is a new dental relationship that I am going to keep.

To Dr. Escalate and his team all I can say is: Wow!!!
The minute I walked in the office I felt safe and comfortable. The reception started working on transferring my X-​Ray for me from my previous dentist and the paper work. After that, the sweetest assistant Annabelle took over and went through my problems with me and later on updated to Dr. Escalate. When Annabelle finished the preparation, Dr. Escalate took over, and he is the most nice, gentle and funny dentist one can ever meet, and he listened to my previous history of my dental treatment patiently, and then gave me a thorough oral exam, he gave heads up before his move and professional opinion afterwards. The service here is over the top. He really upgraded the dental service to a whole new level beyond my imagination!!!

Imagine a pleasant afternoon. I am willing to bet that it doesn’t involve going to the dentist. That used to be true for me until I visited the Escalante office. Believe it or not, every single visit has been enjoyable. Why? I’ll list the reasons.
The waiting room is exceptionally clean and very quiet. Best of all, they have a great selection of well organized magazines, everything from The New Yorker to Us Weekly. If the appointment before you is running behind, you can study up on everything from the habitudes of lemurs to Kim Kardashian’s latest risqué photo shoot backlash.
After a bit of light reading, Aaron’s dental assistant, Annabelle leads the way to the dentist chair. She is a total sweetheart, in addition to being alert, quick thinking, and great at her job. She is a real asset to the team and the first person ever to give me a flossing tutorial without cutting off circulation in my fingers. Best of all, she laughs at my stupid jokes.
Last, but certainly not least… Aaron Escalante is a true OG of dentistry. He has incredibly gentle hands, he makes sure you’re comfortable at all times, and he executes each step with precision. During each procedure, he communicates every task he performs before it happens so you’re able to stay calm and not grip your chair for dear life. On top of being a total professional, he has an endearing personality and seems to have great relationships with all his patients.
Let me just say, I have been missing out. My previous dentist must be living in the stone age because the technology, at this office, was on point. Who knew getting x-​rays could be so comfortable? I even got a tour of my own mouth with a little camera the size of a pen. When I had a filling replaced, they were utilizing tools I’d never even seen before. I am glad to have access to these facilities. My teeth are looking and feeling better than ever.
If you’re looking for a new dentist, Aaron is the man. The Escalante team will make your smile sparkle and shine.

Totally love them! Best dentist and hygenist in the Bay Area. They are nice, personable, clean, efficient, oh yeah and they don’t make you wait for your appointment… what else can I say. I recommend them to the max!

I liked this office and staff a lot, and thought I had found a great place. They advertise crowns as if they are experts.
However, I had a crown fitted and it felt funny, but it was «the latest technique». It fell off the first time (not too uncommon). After going back to get the crown glued twice within the same year I realized this crown never really felt right. The dentist seemed surprised that there was any problem. I have had many crowns before, so this was odd.
I went to another office and had to pay again to remove and redo it. I was told the technique used for this crown is flawed. In the end, I had to pay twice to get my tooth crowned properly and it has never failed again. Therefore, I will not return to the Escalante office.
Hopefully they will resolve this problem with crowning techniques because otherwise it is a nice office and I liked them all.

Very friendly atmosphere with a Hawaiin theme, and more importanly, awesome service.

I have been seeing Dr Escalante for almost three years. His office is lovely and he and his staff are lovely too. His equipment looks like the best you can get. Crowns are crafted by his staff with a modern robotic machine in a room that adjoins an examination room. Both he and his staff are thorough and attentive. He seems to specialize in non-​toxic dental materials. I feel that my dental care cannot be better.
Oh yeah, If he senses that you’re stressed, you get a nice neck rub.
I too am not his brother-​in-​law or even a friend outside the office. He’s simply the best.

OK, may I say that even though it’s a dental appointment, I find myself looking forward to going here? Everyone who works at Dr. Escalante’s office is positively giddy. There must be a laughing gas leak somewhere in the office. They all work very hard and are very kind with great senses of humor.
I arrive on time, and am serviced on time. They work efficiently, and the office is immaculate. No trouble parking on the street in front of the office either, since it’s quite isolated from any other business.
