floss – Implant Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry

Dr. Quinn has been my primary care physician for more than year and I couldn’t be happier. Every time I need to come in which fortunately isn’t too often– everything is easy-​prays from reception to billing.

Great staff. :) They are warm and friendly! They are nice and knowlegeable. They make time for you when you needed their expertise to solve your concern. Dr. Kiyan is very competent and methodical yet easy to talk with. An excellent place to visit and leave with a perfect smile :)

I rarely right reviews but I’ve had my worst dentist experience in my life in this dental office. That’s why I’m writing this review:
The staff were extremely unprofessional and disrespectful from the begging. I called them to make sure they accept my insurance although their name was on my insurance list. The receptionist surprisingly told me that she does not know whether they have contract with my insurance or not and told me to call the insurance myself to figure it out. As far as I know this is your job to know which insurance you are in contract with. In any case I called my insurance and verified that they were in contract with this office and made an appointment afterwards.
On the day of my visit they took an X-​Ray and the doctor who claimed to be very professional recommended a treatment plan. The receptionist told me that she has to call the insurance to get a quote for my treatment and that she would call me later. I waited for a few days, no call back! I called them for a follow up and they told me that the receptionist was sick and ONLY SHE could call the insurance and no one else in their professional office could do so. I waited for their call and no call back again after a week. I called them again and this time they claimed that they did not have my insurance information which I gave them on the day of my visit. I wonder if you are missing something from me, why don’t you call and ask for it? The receptionist told me to email her my insurance information and that she would get back to me soon. Making the long story short, I didn’t hear from them for more than two weeks with excuses like their staff being sick, not having my insurance information and not having received my information through replying to their own email.
At this point it was clear that there is something wrong with this office and they are far from being professional. So I found another dentist to continue my treatment. Meanwhile I called them to get my new X-​Rays and this was when I was shocked again. They wanted to charge me $ 35 just to email me my X-​Ray which has already been paid for by the insurance. They were very rude and claimed that it costs them $ 35 just to email me a digital X-​Ray which literally takes 2 minutes to pull up and email. I’ve asked for my X-​Rays from my previous dentists in the past and I received them without any extra charges. So I’m wondering, what are you after, trying to rip off your patients? Hoping to get more money or revenging the patient who has decided not to continue their treatment at such a HORRIBLE office? Is 2 minutes of a receptionist time worth $ 35 in your office? If not, why do you charge them this ridiculous amount, if yes then you don’t know how to run your office, neither are you trusted with treatment of my teeth. Just to make it clear, X-​Rays are already in digital form and no extra effort is needed to convert them to digital, nor are there any printing or hardware fees. According to the California Dental Association «The dental practice is entitled to charge a reasonable fee based upon the actual time and cost involved in preparing the summary.» It is also noted that «Emailing information to you will have minimal cost.» The $ 35 you are asking for is far more than the «actual time and cost» involved. They withheld my medical records by asking for this ridiculous amount. They are here just to take your money, they DO NOT CARE about the patients and depending on what insurance you have they treat you differently.
The ridiculous part though is that they’ve been emailing me repeatedly to write them a Unilocal review. Here it is, your review with more stars than you deserve. They have no idea what they are doing. I do not recommend this office to anyone.

Everything was excellent ! 10 out of 10 !!!

My favorite dentist in town. I can count on him always! Very polite, knowledgeable, patient, committed, and great at what he does. I definitely recommend this place 100% to anyone in search for a quality dentist. They are conveniently located in the heart of UTC. Beautiful office with great stuff. Dr Kyan will look into all possible options to help with your dental issues and will discuss in details the solution. He will make sure to explain all the procedures so that you understand everything without questions in mind. He loves what he does and very good at it. A true dental artist :)).

I love this office! It’s beautiful! And don’t get me started with the team! They’re professional, knowledgeable, caring and personable! I truly look forward to my dental visits! I am currently in the dental field working as a dental assistant so I know a good office & team when I see one! My office doesn’t do clear correct, so I started searching and that is when I found Dr. Mehdizadeh, & I’m so, so happy I did! I’m almost finished with my trays and couldn’t be happier with the outcome! If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. Thanks, guys! I appreciate each and every one of you!

This place is so welcoming! I am very happy with my results. The teeth are not yet finished, but I am more than pleased with the results thus far. AND sometimes you are greeted by Remy, the cutest little dog, it’s a huge plus to have her around, she is the best! Everyone that works here is warm and actually care very much about the service they provide. Also they work really well with my work schedule. My work schedule is from 8:30 –5:00pm and it was really difficult finding a dental office that works outside these hours. Dr. Kiyan came in early plenty of times to work on my teeth outside of business hours and that to me means that he will go above and beyond for his patients. Embarrassingly enough I was not able to make it to one of my early morning visits and I had to cancel 30 minutes before my actual appointment. Even after this the doctor still continued to work around my schedule! Super accommodating! Getting veneers is a huge decision and I am so glad I went with my gut instincts this time and chose the right doctor. Dr. Kiyan is very attentive to your needs makes sure you are happy with your teeth when you walk out the door. Thanks Dr. Kiyan!

Everything feels different in this office. Dr. Kiyan is amazing, he has the nicest staff. The doctor spends so much time explaining everything regarding your procedure. He comes in on Saturdays if you need him. I always feel great in his office everyone is so helpful. I love what he has done with my smile! I feel great. This office is the best hands down. Wait until you meet Remy! Extra treat!!! Thank you doctor and staff I will see you soon.

This place is amazing!!! I honestly have always had a phobia of the dentist since I was a little girl. This was my first time getting my teeth worked on in over ten years due to my phobia! I needed a wisdom tooth pulled out and I found Floss on Unilocal.Sure enough their 5 star reviews were very true. The staff and my overall experience was great. I was back to work the next day with no pain at all.

He’s a great dentist. You can tell he makes sure you are satisfied with his work. I still get a little scared coming in to a dentist from experiences from my old dentist. He recognized my root canal, should of had a crown, and my old dentist didnt do the root canal correctly which caused an infection, so he suggested an endodontics.

1^st visit: First came to this stunning dental office based on these reviews. Expresso machine, drinks, snacks offered… say what right? I had an interest into getting braces after my routine dentist has been instilling it into me. Consultation for Clear Correct was very informative. Dr. Kiyan, Ryan and the staff made everything smooth. My first paparazzi at the dentist! Remy was also a delightful yorkie to see :)
2^nd visit: After shopping around, this office and staff was hands down the best. It is a 25 min drive from my house but well worth it. Still consistently transparent and also honored my GroupOn, no hassle, awesome!
3^rd visit: Came in to seat my first set of trays. Smooth, delightful, and still informative. I ran into a moving issue and Dr. Kiyan is experienced in that too! What a relief he is. Thank you! Until next visit :)

My family loves to come to Floss! I never thought my teenage daughter would love to go to the dentist:) We love the friendly service and being treated like family but most importantly, the expertise and advice of Dr Kiyan. He uses state-​of-​the-​art diagnostic technology and procedures. Floss has a relaxed and stress free environment that will calm even the most skiddish patient!

Like all of it. Treatment process is very pleasant, can be used as a kind of enjoyment. Medical technology is brilliant. And environment is also very elegant.

Dr Kiyan Mehdizadeh helped me removed a impacted wisdom tooth, along with two other normal wisdom teeth at the same time, using IV sedation. The procedure was painless, and the healing time was approximately one and a half week. It is really awesome.
I used to be so afraid of seeing dentist because I thought it was too painful. But this experience changed my mind completely.
Also, the dental office is located in an high end office building, and is clean, and professional. Staff is friendly and helpful. In addition, you get to meet his yorkshire terrier, who is lovely and capable of calming you down before the surgery :)
Overall, 5 Star experience

Have you ever looked in the mirror at your very crooked teeth and thought… I will never have straight teeth. The answer to your question is YES. Dr Kiyan Mehdizadeh is a miracle worker. In less than one year wearing ClearCorrect aligners, my teeth are straight. Next step was teeth whiting and the cosmetic bonding adjustments, Dr. Kiyan is an artist with cosmetic bonding. I feel like I could be the next Colgate tooth paste model. This office is so professional, kind and keeps you in the loop for your entire treatment.
Thank You Floss,
Dr. Kiyan, Ryan and Ellie
I LOVE MY TEETH!!!

I Love Floss! Kiyan is very professional. Be honest about your dental hygiene and ask a lot of questions. My recent experience could not have gone smoother. I had a quick dental cleaning and appreciated the fast service. Thank you team floss!

I just finished up my course of ClearCorrect at Floss. I initially went to Floss after finding them online and am glad I did. After not wearing my retainer since high school, my teeth regressed, and I wanted to get them back to straight again. I went through a 12 tray course of ClearCorrect, and my teeth are back in picturesque positions.
I thought all the communication with Floss was super polite, and they kept me in the loop on everything.
I also had my chipped teeth fixed recently at Floss, and they look great too!
I’m going to miss coming to Floss, as I felt that they treated me like a friend and not just a patient.

Conclusion: outrageous charging and poor service.
So the first time i went there i told them 2 of my teeth are having serious tooth decay and need immediate dental attention. I asked them about how much would a tooth filling be and they said it was $ 30 if i have ucsd insurance.
They suggested me to do veneer or filling and said would email me a treatement plan. They scheduled me up for an appointment 2 (or 3) weeks after my first visit. And they said they will schedule me up for another date depending on whether i want venneer or tooth fillings. I didnt really have time to look for other dental clinic so i just kept that appointment.
However they didnt semd me a treatment plan and it was too busy for me to follow up. I thought as long as they do filling on my teeth its fine.
Today i went there, turned out that todays appointment was only for going over my treatment plan. I have 2 midterms today and they did NOTHING on my teeth. It was a waste of time. They wanted to schedule me up for another appointment for treatment, but i figured i need to go somewhere else.
TOO EXPENSIVE:
Turned out they said the $ 30 was for silver fillings. For white fillings, its $ 230 a teeth, and my ucsd insurance will cover less than 50% of that.
I come from LA, and i swear to you that most fental clinic in LA charges in average $ 80-​$ 90 for white fillings for 1 teeth. If you have medical, its free. If you cant find a clinic that charge $ 80-​$ 90, hit me up a message, i will recommend to you my previous clinic.
I just confirmed with my dentist in LA. he doesnt think i need veneer. i was recommended veneer simply b/​c its expensive, and they charge more expensive than the market price.
They only want money. I dont understand why they have 5 stars. But i assure you, any dental clinic i have been to in LA is similar or better than this one in terms of enviroment. And the charging makes a lot more sense. So as the treatment. You dont have to wait 2 to 3 weeks to go over your plan.

I just finished up 18 months of Invisalign and at the end of my treatment, I realized I wasn’t thrilled with the shape of my eye teeth. The braces moved them
as much as possible, but it just wasn’t a shape that I was happy with, so I decided go invest in bonding to fill in the gaps of my pointy canines.
So I looked up the best cosmetic orthodos in San Diego, and after consulting with two docs, I knew FLOSS was it! Their offices are immaculate and their staff is phenomenal!
I’m so grateful with the outcome of my cosmetic bonding that I highly recommend them to everyone for ALL of your dental needs!

I found Dr. Kiyan through Unilocal and was excited to go into the initial consultation for gum contouring.
I got the procedure done while finishing my treatment at another dentist for Invisalign. I’ve always had a gummy smile, so I was determined to get it done so when I asked the dentist doing my Invisalign about the procedure they said they could do it, but thought that I didn’t really need it; I could tell they were iffy about it. I wanted someone who was excited to get me to my goal, so that’s why I was relieved when I came here. They have reasonable prices and when I told my Invisalign dentist I was getting it done elsewhere, they said they could match Floss’s price, but I felt more comfortable with Dr. Kiyan, and I’m happy with my results! Everyone there is genuinely nice, Ryan is always (seemingly) happy to answer questions and a relief to talk to when dealing with not so fun stuff.
Thanks Floss team!
