Description

Specialties

We are a general restorative practice. I would say that we specialize in very modern technique, state of art dental procedures. We are very adept at pain management and will sedate patients when the situation calls for it. We provide INVISALIGN (invisible braces), CEREC Crowns (one appointment crowns, no temporary) and smile design as our specialty/​niche treatments.



We care for families and busy working people and we respect your time and do our best to stay on time.



Rather than give you a menu of what we do I think it best to say we specialize in improving our patients health and keeping them healthy throughout their life .We want our patients to have a lifetime of great dental health.

We will do our best to serve you everytime. That is our commitment to our family of patients.

History

Established in 1985.

I established my practice in 1985. Since that time i have provided dental care for thousands of patients. Our strategy was simple. Do the best you can every day and always think long term about our patients. Treatment plans are always developed with the belief that if we treated patients the best way possible from the start they would have a life time of great dental health. As we have continuously evolved, updated our techniques and dental materials, we have always stayed true to thinking about our patients lifetime strategy for dental health. I am proud to say that my patients that have accepted ideal treatment have enjoyed the benefits of modern dentistry and have needed very little dentistry for decades thereafter.

Service with a smile (no pun intended). I have been coming to Dr. johns since I was a little boy, he has helped shape my smile throughout the years to help me gain confidence in any obstacle I was facing. I highly recommend him.

Just had a tooth extracted at this practice after finding them on Unilocal.After calling to make the appointment, the only reason why I went with them is because the accept Care Credit, as I do not have insurance.
The interior is immaculate. The staff is not only highly knowledgeable, but they are friendly, real people. And the exact same can be said for the doctor, including his skill. His professionalism compliments his charisma perfectly. And my procedure went off without a hitch. My wife and I will now be going to this practice on a regular basis. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

Late to review this dentist I have seen for a year. I did find him on Unilocal.They are kind in the office and really help you get your dental needs met. For me it’s trying to make time for my dental needs. Dr Johns is an excellent provider and is very nice. The office also has a lot of bells and whistles in terms of new technology. Have no idea what’s called but it’s a comfort touch. One example, the heated lavender cloths to wipe off your face. Either way, you won’t be disappointed and I really appreciate this practice.

I would recommend Dr. John’s to anyone who is looking for a dentist who goes the extra mile. Since I was a kid, I’ve always feared the dentist. I was seeing another dentist who was just ok. I moved to Dr. John’s practice a little over two years ago. I’ve been happily going to the dentist ever since. His patience and kindness are so relaxing. His sense of humor helps me relax as well. As for his staff, Trish & Ronnie are amazing. Everyone knows my name and are so friendly. Not so much at the last place I was going too. Just today, I had four beautiful veneers put in. I can’t stop smiling. Dr. John’s didn’t finish up till I was very happy with the results. I’d give this Whole practice 5 stars… AMAZING. So happy I found them.

If your looking for a dentist with skill and experience I would recommend Dr. Johns. It’s been over a year since he put 4 veneers on my front top teeth. I had it done right before my wedding and it looked very natural. I could’t be more happy with my new and improved smile. Dr. Johns and his staff took in full consideration of how I wanted the veneers to look. They were very receptive to minor changes I wanted. I looked at his previous work and had a friend that got veneers done by him. I went in to his office with confidence and came out all expectations met. Thank you for a job well done. The wedding photos came out great.

I have been a patient of Dr. Johns for several years now and he is the best dentist I have ever had. I feel so blessed to have found him because I have spent thousands of dollars with other dentists only to wind up with less than stellar work. Dr. Johns detailed and exemplary work now has my mouth, teeth and gums in the best shape possible. The bonus is that his staff is just as good as he is. They are a great team. Many Thanks! Value your mouth, see Dr. Johns.

I came to Chris Johns for an Invisalign consultation because of a LivingSocial deal. The service, friendliness, cleanliness of the office, and knowledge was all there– however their price were not. My deal indicated I could get a $ 1500 credit towards Invisalign however their prices were realllllly expensive to begin with, thus making the $ 1500 basically useless.
I would’ve loved to be a repeat client, I would have trusted their practice, listened to his advice, but compared to what my other dentist was charging for an out-​of-​pocket procedure ($ 2000 vs. Chris Johns $ 5500), we all want the best deal out there and I just couldn’t afford Dr. John’s price tag no matter how good their chairside manner is.

Dr. Johns’ team is the best! They are all super friendly, professional, and do great work. They have a modern office that is extremely clean and fitted with very up-​to-​date equipment. Not only is Dr. Johns my regular dentist, but he also recently did a great job on two veneers for me, one of which was an implant crown. The shade matching and texture of the veneers were amazing. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better result.
As unpleasant as it is to have routine cleanings, cavities filled, and the like, Dr. Johns’ team really manages to make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible.

Yes, I am a total fan.
The staff and Dr. are the very best in what they do. I have been going there for about 9 years. Totally painless. Removed all the silver fillings and replaced. I even had a couple of root canals. Usually painful but here you are given head phones to listen to music and medicated so you feel No pain.
Relaxed and helpful staff greet you as you come in. Even x-​rays are digital and quick and painless.
What more can you ask for.
If you are looking for a dentist come here.

O.K., who wants a root canal right before Thanksgiving??? Not a fun thing, huh? Well, I must admit that I have the most awesome dentist on the planet. If you are scared of the dentist, or just avoid them entirely, think again. I have been going to Dr. Johns for years and he has continually been the best dentist ever. Why do I think this? He has the most state of the art equipment, an incredible staff which are darling, friendly, bright and compassionate and most of all, I feel that he has the most exceptional demeanor and quality of care. I have friends that work with dentists who say some pretty scary things about them. Dr. Johns is always in a great mood, is always confident in all procedures and most of all he’s wears ties to match his eyeglasses… Just kidding, although it was a nice touch… He looks professional and always delivers the highest level of care. His assistant, Felicity is unbelievably kind and caring during the most difficult procedures. I would recommend him to everyone I know. They are truly the most professional, exceptional practice on the peninsula…

I’ve seen Dr. Johns twice now and he’s simply the best dentist I’ve ever been to. Not only is Dr. Johns an incredible dentist, he’s also one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He’s genuinely compassionate and caring and has a great sense of humor as well. His staff couldn’t be nicer and more efficient. His office is state of the art, with the latest technology. I can’t say enough good things about my experience here except that this is the only dentist I will ever need. Forget 1−800-dentist — this is your guy. Thanks Dr. Johns!!!

Dr. Johns is the BEST DENTIST I’ve had the «pleasure» of seeing. He and his staff are very soothing and nonjudgmental.
I am in the process of job-​hunting since I was laid-​off a few months ago. A few days ago, while playing basketball, the ball hit me in the face and the result was losing my front tooth. I want to look like a poised professional when I go for that interview and not look like «trailer trash.» Since I have no job nor any benefits, I had ABSOLUTELY NO ONE TO TURN TO!
Dr. Johns and his staff saw me, put me at ease and got me my NEW TOOTH within 24 hours. When I first looked at it in the mirror, all I could do is cry because of the beautiful work. He and his staff not only gave me a new tooth, they gave me something much more important; the confidence to get that new job!!!
Dr. Johns is not only a dentist but a HERO! Thank you for my new smile!!!

After having bad experience with a local dentist I was lucky to find Chris Johns DDS. Chris cares about his patients. I had a problem with a crown from another dentist. Dr. Johns came in on his day off to fix it.
The staff is very pleasant. The office has all the latest equipment which indicates that the Dentist stays on top of new techniques.
