Zen Dental Group

Horrible! I read some reviews. Went in against my better judgement. was impressed by them seeing me asap. Got an appointment fast paperwork went fast walked in seen within 10 mins X-ray’s were fast doctor came in with in 10 mins. she did my assessment went well. then that’s when it went down hill! I have healthy teeth, healthy gums. Yet she the doctor WANTED to make $$ said she didn’t want to do a general cleaning because my 2 back teeth had build up tarter I needed a deep cleaning which my insurance wouldn’t cover so I need to go back, she suggestions I get «crowns» to make my teeth stronger humm never had an issue with hem before. By this point I checked out. My wisdom teeth are fully out on top so she gave me a referral to have them removed (they don’t bother me) nor do they cause me to have a uneven smile. so no cleaning and wants me to spend money out of pocket close to $ 6,000. umnm keep your services. I’ll go else where. and I’m sure my other teeth would have benefited from a basic teeth cleaning.

Started out good, but went to hell. For a crown they could could not get it right in the fit, took repeated visits.
Then they start making you pay money to make an appointment out of the blue. Then after give money for appointment three days before appointment they call and say they no longer billing secondary insurance. I need to give them about $ 600.
So I tell them to cancel my appointment and reimburse my money. Next day I call to check if they have my money ready, they say they’ll check 4 hours later they call me back and say that it’s only new clients they will not bill. So I go in for my appointment and they tell me I need to pay $ 600. What a joke these people are.

I had high hopes about this dentist based off past reviews but didn’t have as good an experience as I had hoped. I had to go in simply to reattach my crown, but the procedure was rushed and had to return because cement was deposited on my other teeth which had to be taken off. I appreciated that the dentist reached out to me after the procedure to apologize for the inconvenience. The mishap was probably an anomaly… the staff, décor and prices were fine.

I started going to Zen Dental through other patient’s recommendations.
I am a happy patient. I have been going for couple of years now. I am there for routine check ups and I take my two children there too. I also had a new crown and filling. So far, no problem.
I love Dr. Ha and her mom who works there as a dental assistant; Very friendly professionals.

I’ve been to Zen Dental several times since my first review. They continue to do an awesome job. I don’t like going to the dentist (who does?), but the experience at this dentist is so personal and friendly that my wife and I look forward to the visit.
I’ll be moving out of the area soon and will have to find a new dentist. I will be lucky to find this level of care in another city.

So I came here one time because my wisdom tooth were hurting and my cheek got really swollen so I go in and I saw a girl dentist and she looked at my teeth and referred me to oral surgeon to get my wisdom teeth pulled, she didn’t even care that I was in pain and one side of my face was swollen! I had to ask her to give me antibiotics because I knew I had an infection. point is she wouldn’t have given me any if I didn’t ask even tho my face was swollen. so if a patient goes in with the same problem as me but doesn’t know its an infection she wouldn’t of prescribed an antibiotic if that patient didn’t ask for it. Its their job to know not the patients.
I was a little disappointed in the dentist she didn’t even talk to me a lot just asked me like 3 questions all the other staff were really nice. so I think I will give this place another try and we will see.

This is a review written after 2 and a half months of observation, so I know what I am talking about. ;)
Two and half months ago one tooth felt extremely sensitive, my husband and I found a highly rated dentist through Unilocal in Santa Barbara, where we were traveling through. The assistant took a photo of my tooth, not very clear quality, the dentist came in and suggested me right away to see a specialist the next day, to see if I needed to get a root canal, all within 1 and a half minutes! They helped us to make an appointment for the specialist the next day at 4pm… Walking out of their office I felt like I was becoming a file number on their folder only, my husband and I looked at each other, no comment for what we just experienced…
Then my husband said let’s take a drive to Dr. Ha in the morning and see where we go from there! Thinking of Dr. Ha ad her nice family and office, I got energized right away. Yes Let’s go! We made the appointment explained our situation they fit us in no problem.
They took a photo of my teeth and IT WAS A MUCH CLEARER PHOTO than the one in Santa Barbara, I actually got MORE «dark spots» than what it showed the day earlier… She explained there were two possibilities for the dark spot and she preferred to try to fix it for the possibility of lit being less severe instead of talking about the root canal the first thing, knowing my age, she thought the root canal would be a bit too premature to be carried for the rest of my life.
AND…2 and half months later! I am happy as ever with her nice fix! The pain and sensitivity has not come back since…
Thank you Dr. Ha! We love you and would recommend you to anybody we cross paths with!

Definitely the most accommodating dental office I have ever been to. I dropped in about 30 minutes before closing time without an appointment and they fit me in for x-​rays, a consult, and cleaning right then and there. Very clean, very professional staff. They were mindful of costs. Astrid at the front desk even called and offered to bump up my next appointment so that I wouldn’t have to miss work.

Travelling through town, (eating a Date of all things) I broke the bonding on my Front Tooth. Dr Ha had an opening the next morning. The office was meticulous and new, fresh and modern. The office assistant polite and Prepared. There was no waiting, Her Technician took a quick low impact Xray, and the work that Dr. Ha did on my tooth was pain free with a very natural outcome. She explained everything and really took time to see that this tooth flowed evenly with the rest of my smile. My wife and I felt like we were with family. I would travel back even if it took more than an hours drive to re-​visit this Dr., her Staff and comfortable office. Thank You Dr. Ha and Family!

Pretty and modern location. A major plus? The actual dentist does all the cleaning– not just the hygienist. Will definitely be back in six months.

Dr. Ha is great! They were able to get me in for an appointment on the same day I called! Unheard of!

Awesome, Honest, Kind and especially patient Dentist! I stumbled upon this Dental Office and have become a patient, my family too!, of Dr. Carmen Ha. I am the worlds biggest baby when it comes to dentistry, (bad trama, as a child) Stephen King like Trama! Anyway, she was very very nice and made me feel so comfortable. I brought my daughter in (2 years old) they, the office staff, could not have been more perfect. They put Dora on and she was in her element! You can bring a movie to watch or music on cd to listen to while their making your smile bright and healthy. Nothing feels as good as CLEAN Teeth!
Save your coupons for your oil change! You won’t find another dentist in town as honest and caring as the Zen Group! I haven’t had Dr. Tang yet, but I met him and he seems to be as kind and gentle as Dr. Ha! Get in there and get checked out! you owe it to yourself!
