Testimonials

I recently switched to this dentist and decided to try them after having mixed experiences through with my former dentist. GREAT GREAT GREAT dentist and staff.

Not only is the entire staff great but the dental office is completely modern and they make you feel like your right at home. The dental industry is a business too but I feel they are honest in their recommendations and they have my best interest.

I originally decided to go to them based on their perfect yelp reviews and now I'm convinced they are worth the positive feedback.

Whats so nice about the whole situation is I've stayed right across the street from them for over a year now. Doesn't get any better.

I have been going to De Ala Dental Care for the past few years and they are a wonderful group of people. Dr. Rick gives very thorough exams and cleanings. He takes the time to listen to any concerns you may have and even does Zoom whitening. The entire staff is very friendly and whenever you walk in there, they greet you like family. I've always found it very easy to make and reschedule appointments with them--which is great for me, because I go here even though I live all the way in Oakland. I would highly recommend De Ala Dental care to meet all your dental needs.
