Gregory H Taylor, DDS

Greg Taylor has been taking care of my teeth for 15 years. I can’t say enough good things about him. I’ve heard so many horror stories lately about newer dentists who push costly unnecessary procedures just to line their pockets, and it just makes me appreciate Dr. Taylor’s honest and conservative approach even more. He is truly one of San Diego’s best dentists. Having sold and no longer practicing at his old North Park and PB offices, Dr. Taylor is fortunately still available for appointments in his new Encinitas location. Check him out, it’s as good as dentistry gets.

Dr. Greg Taylor has been my dentist for almost 25 years. During that time he has provided the best dental care I could hope for — helping me through the routine and the unexpected. Besides being so professional, he is also a great guy — ready to share a laugh while still maintaining that professionalism. I TRUST whatever dental advice he gives me and KNOW I’m in good hands. — - His new office, in PB, is an easy drive from anywhere in the city (I live in East County). I can’t recommend him highly enough!

Dr Taylor has been my dentist for a long time. I live in North County but have driven down to North Park and now to Pacific Beach because when you find a good dentist you can never leave! His clinical skills are superb and he is one of the few dentists in San Diego who knows how to do gold work. Gold is much hardier than other fillings and there is not any problems with mercury leaching out. I have had several fillings in my molars replaced with gold by Dr Taylor and they have held up extremely well. Unlike so many dentists, Dr. Taylor only does procedures when they are needed and he doesn’t over-​charge for them either. This dentist is one in a million.

I’m not sure why but Dr. Taylor only has this PB page. I actually see him at Dr. Nguyen’s office in North Park on 30^th street.
I have severe dental phobias attributable to some nightmare dentists in the past, and found Dr. Taylor by referral. My boss’ brother takes his children to Dr. Taylor and recommended him as a children’s dentist. I figured «If he’s gentle enough for a kid, maybe he’s gentle enough for me». I was not disappointed! Dr. Taylor is always patient and his calm approach sets me at ease. With his help, I’ve gotten the many root canals, crowns and adjustments I needed out of the way and am happy to say I haven’t had any new decay in two years. I would recommend anyone to him!

Greg Taylor is awesome. His philosophy is to give you quality work at a fair price, never aiming to make someone overpay like other dentists I’ve heard of. You can trust him to care about you, and give you solid advice (even beyond teeth!) Definitely in good hands, or shall I say, your mouth is in good hands!

Great people, that do great work. Each time I go in for my work I feel that they really care. Normally I don’t enjoy going to the dentist but Dr. Taylor has done wonders on my teeth.

I was looking for a dentist in my neighborhood that would take my insurance, I found this on the insurance website and wanted to cross reference and check with its Unilocal reviews. With its positive reviews, I decided to give it a shot. I saw Dr. Nguyen (not Taylor Gregory), and I give him and his staff a 5 star rating. Dr. Nguyen took his time with me, always making sure he answers all of my questions. I asked Dr. Nguyen to give me a copy of my x-​rays, and he emailed them to me couple days after the appointment like he said he would. The Dental hygienist Bertie is amazing and very knowledgeable, she had been working at that office for 30 years, and seems to know everything! Both Dr. Nguyen and his dental hygienist Bertie made sure to explain every dental jargon they used while working on me. They would shout numbers that are recorded, but while doing so Bertie would explain to me what those numbers meant– #3 means I have to brush the area more closely and use more floss. My overall experience was as good as a dentist visit could get. They did make suggestions about Invisiline and oral surgery (for wisdom teeth), but they were not pushy about it (as are most dentists). The front desk lady (forgot her name) was very good about answering questions regarding insurance coverage. Everyone was helpful and in fact I referred them to my boyfriend and close friends because I want them to go to a dentist that would treat patients with care and respect.

I love these guys. Everyone I’ve worked with has been great, if not excellent.
I see Dr. Nguyen, who is great. First off, he actually asked me about what I’m looking for in a dentist and what my dental concerns are, which rarely happens. I’m clueless when it comes to dentistry and there were a lot times he could have wrongly upsold me and he never has. He has done one small filling for me, which went well.
The dental hygienists are all really sweet and quite informative. I had a lot of issues with my dental insurance and the young girl at the front desk was really great, even calling back later of her own accord to see if everything worked out.
It’s easy to get appointments, the staff is friendly, and I trust them 100%. And the biggest perk: you’re right by Filter so you can hop over after your appointment and get busy staining your teeth again.

The biggest concern I have with dentists in general is that you never know if you really need that root canal or filling or whatever. I mean, it would be awfully easy for a dentist to recommend a couple of root canals if he were low on money that month. In the five years that I’ve been with Dr. Gregory, I’ve only had one procedure done (a crown), and this was only after I came to him in excruciating pain. He seems to be extremely honest and he’s been in the business for a long time. I trust his entire staff and the other dentists at this office. I don’t think he’s accepting new patients, but I think this entire dentist office is worth checking out.
