Sylvia Urbina, DDS

Myself and my four siblings have gone to this office since Dr Tennyson was the owner! Dr Urbina is fantastic. She is very thorough and her staff is always very patient and nice. I highly recommend her if you and your family are looking for a dentist on the peninsula!

I do not remember when I first started coming here, but it must be 10 years+. The staff, facility, customer service and how they operate are spot on. They put a lot of care into their work and how they treat their clients. I cant imagine going to another dentist.

Dr. Urbina has been caring for my son’s teeth for many years and I think she’s outstanding. She’s extremely detailed and thoughtful about her work, always spends whatever time is needed to explain or talk through procedures and options with me, and is incredibly caring. When My son was small, she would sing «Baby Beluga» to him to keep him calm! Recently, she thought he might need a crown, but suggested we take a more conservative approach to save the tooth. It was with assurance that if we discover in the short term that this was the wrong decision, she’d adjust the cost of the crown appropriately. I feel as though she helps us make decisions she’d make for her own kids. Can’t ask for more than that!

Dr. Urbina is the BEST!
She has been our family dentist for years, highly recommended by another medical professional.
It’s a given that she’s an amazing medical professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, caring, detail oriented, has gentle hands, etc.
The moment you walk through the door and see Laurie, you feel welcome. The waiting area is designed to be inviting and comfortable, with the rest of the office bathed in light. She spoils you — my kids love that there are current DVDs they can watch while they are being treated, and I love, love, love, that she has a bunch of magazines for me to read. We always leave her office with a smile. She is more than our family dentist, she is a gem to the community.

My family has been coming to Dr. Urbina since in 2004~
She saved my son’s front tooth~ The tooth was accidentally severed by an air hockey puck.
My own Dentist wanted to file the tooth and cap it. Dr. Urbina took us the next morning after the accident @ 7:00 a.m., my son still has his tooth. We’re watching it, since the root was exposed.
Dr. Urbina took the extra step in care to save my son’s tooth, my entire family switched Dentist.

I’ve been meaning to write a review on Dr. Urbina for awhile but never got around to it until now! First of all, she’s been my dentist ever since she tok over my childhood dentist’s (Dr. Roger Tennyson) practice several years ago.
From the start, I developed a very good rapport with her and I can tell she establishes this kind of pleasant, friendly relationship with all of her patients. She genuinely cares not just about your teeth, but the patient as a whole. Her facilities are completely modern. Flat screens mounted on the wall to watch your favorite DVDs while you get your teeth cleaned or a cavity filled. I think she remodeled a few years ago and it looks great! I never watch anything though, because our conversations are enough to keep me entertained!
Her staff is very friendly, and Laurie the receptionist always greets you with a smile.
I lived in Fremont when I first started seeing her and now live in San Jose. If there’s any indication how good of a dentist she is, its the fact that I am willing to travel 25+ miles just to keep her as my dentist! I never dread seeing her, I look forward to it. 5 ++ stars for Sylvia!

A wonderful dental experience!
Dr. Urbina is a very caring, thorough dental practitioner. She took the time to explain to me the details of what she is going to do and why and all the findings of my first visit. With the use of a hand held mirror, she pointed out all issues so I could see first hand what it is that she is seeing. We discussed any behavioral changes I could make to better the state of my teeth, as well as any procedures I might benefit from. However, she was not pushy about anything and explained the pros and cons of everything, letting me make an informed decision. She has the high tech equipment necessary to take good care of my teeth and gums, as well as the personality to keep me coming back knowing I’ll have a pleasant visit. She truly cares about my teeth and gums and took the time to thoroughly examine and clean my teeth herself. I never felt like she was rushing through anything.
I highly recommend Dr. Urbina and her staff — I don’t have one negative thing to say about my visit.

Dr Urbina is wonderful. She has the latest equipment, her staff is caring and, most importantly, she exudes competence and caring.
