Nader Ahdout, D.D.S.

Love the staff, Dr. Nader is very kind and inviting. Great job every time, in and out, and amazing with children! My son had the best experience today due to friendly, Patient staff. I recommend 100%

I’ve had an amazing 95% smile makeover and bite reconstruction from this office. It’s clean friendly professional and efficient. I can’t give a better review. Yes dentistry costs but it’s worth paying with money rather than with your health. My bite was crooked because of a car accident to which I was not at fault. I chipped my front tooth in that accident and have had to pay out of pocket for the restoration of my bite. I had a mysterious facial pain prior to ALL of the work which I did not have before the car accident. My attorney (for the car accident) ignored that portion of my injuries and went straight for it only being about my neck. Of course because that is MORE MONEY for my attorney, which my neck has severe injuries. However my face for a year or more hurt my jaw hurt, it did not stop hurting until I went to the dentist and discovered the bite was all crooked. It wasn’t ever like that before. Dr. Nader diagnosed the issue got to work and the pain is totally gone. My front tooth is still chipped and needs to be repaired as it looks bad. I’ve paid about 10 thousand dollars to repair all damaged from this bad car accident. I was hit in a Jetta by a giant SUV almost head on my face smacked the drivers side window so hard it broke the mechanics of the window. I’m so happy dr. Nader was able to just get the job done. Unlike my attorney. Dr. Nader I swear you’ve really taken away so much pain I’ve had! I appreciate everything you’ve done for me and continue to do. I’m really shocked at any negative reviews here! It’s weird! Perhaps those people just wanted pain medication to get a buzz or wrote the reviews because they expected basic cheap and bad dentistry like Bio-​Dental or Gateway? (those places bio-​dental and gateway will put veneers on bad teeth and leave you having to have implants, they are in it for a year of making front teeth look healthy leaving hosts of issues which break veneers after a year)
Maybe the bad reviewers had poor oral hygiene at the time and were embarrassed to find out that going to a dentist is more important than a bar, a purse or a used Mercedes Benz? I don’t know but I read these negative reviews and it’s shocking, honestly in my opinion these are people that had work done and are trying to take advantage in the form of FRAUD on the dentist payments!
In 6 months if/​When everything in my mouth is still great I’ll be updating this review to tell you all about the longevity of the work. Dentistry isn’t inexpensive but it’s not really expensive it’s a middle ground price and we all know that in the USA, but I can’t imagine a price tag oN GETTING RID OF PAIN, and that’s what I had to choose from! Pain, or money? Clearly I’ll pay to get out of horrid pain abusing my ability to sing, eat, etc. my attorney should be paying for this, but that is a whole other review. For now I’ll tell you I fell amazing and it’s been a long road of repairs because of the accident I was in, I didn’t even discover the possibility of this causality until I saw dr. Nader. And the work started in July 2015
To the people so upset, I just want to say talk to him, be kind it really goes far in life, he does listen and work with his patients, it’s NOT FREE work but like I said TALK TO HIM! He isn’t like other dentists that think root canal therapy is the answer to all pain. It’s not! It’s definitely not his motto either. In fact I’ll go as far as to say he like to avoid them because, «they can always be done but never undone» that’s me directly quoting him when I thought they were the answer, and when they need to be repaired it’s honestly better to just get an implant. In fact I had a root canal done by him, I had to. He stands by his work. It hurt lbam he did the therapy and what did it cost me? I’m not stating that he does free root canals but he isn’t one to jump in and dig out a tooth for the sake of money. I had a lot of work and it cost me a ton of money but, in retrospect I did my research and he was still less expensive than any dentist in 25 miles. Maybe because he isn’t trying to put on a show with no real long term results like 90% of offices do.
The ADA (American dental association) and my private doctor know of him, referee me and I’m happy. In fact both want a 6 and 12 month report after I let them know about my pain being demolished by a dentist that took the TIME TO DIAGNOSE the issue. I wish my attorney had half the grace dr. Nader has. I will refer all family to go. Most people don’t like dentists or going to the dentist because it’s too much work, however putting it off causes diseases. My brother is terrified of dental work. He has no cavities and was blessed with great teeth. I’ve been making him goto every visit and that alone has caused him to start flossing more and taking a proactive step all his own. That’s 90% of the job, self care. I could go on and on. I’ll be back in 6 months to write a little update. Thanks Dr. Nader you’re the kindest doctor I’ve known in 38 years.

*AVOID AT ALL COSTS* *AVOID AT ALL COSTS* *AVOID AT ALL COSTS*
The absolute WORST dentist I have EVER been to. He has performed at least 7 or 8 fillings on me. He fractured several of those fillings just while putting them in. I did not fracture them myself, they were already fractured as soon as I got home, before I even tried to eat. My tongue gets cut on the fractures. He even drilled WAY TOO DEEP on a filling to force me to get a root canal so he could be paid more. «Coincidentally» this was on the very last tooth he was going to fill for me, meaning he wouldn’t keep making money off me unless I needed a root canal or something else major. I am not the first, that same thing happened to another reviewer. He is a conman, while giving me a filling another patient (elderly) came in to have something done. As she waited, he told his receptionist to see how much the insurance is willing to pay. Now why would he be asking that? He will destroy your mouth. He has surely done a number on mine. Tons of food, LARGE AMOUNTS, get stuck in my fractures on BOTH sides of my mouth. I’ve made sure my step-​dad and mother never set foot near here again.

Basically he told me that I had all kinds of problems with my teeth which I don’t. He refused to clean my teeth saying instead that I needed to come back and have thousands of dollars of work done. He would contact my insurance for me and let me know what was covered. Gee how nice of him. Total scammer. Had my teeth cleaned at smile designers in San Diego instead. So ridiculous.

I have been a patient for over 10 years now and would not consider going anywhere else. I’ve had a considerable amount of dental work done and thanks to Dr. Ahdout, I now have the smile that I’ve always wanted! I have always been completely satisfied with the dental treatment and have not experienced any problems. I believe that I’m a good judge of character. Dr Ahdout and his staff have always been extremely professional, knowledgeable, honest, affordable and friendly. I have no complaints about Dr. Ahdout’s practice and would definitely recommend his office to anyone in need of quality dentistry.

Here is an update, so I came to Dr. Ahdout originally for an emergency December 2013 and the dentist was nice enough to fit me in. Now, I am back to seeing my usual dentist that I always used and Dr. Ahdout’s is trying to charge a fee to send a copy of my X-​rays $ 60??As the secretary at my dentist office requested the copies they asked to speak to me and that’s when Dr. Ahdout got on the line and asked why I was seeing another doctor? UMMM…, BECAUSE I CAN!!! At that point he said ok and his front office chick Glenda put me on hold for like 6 minutes and said she didn’t have to do anything right away and basically I felt as though I was given a hard time because I decided to go to a TRUST WORTHY DENTIST, instead continuing to get scammed at their office!!!
Dr. Ahdout took full mouth xrays, told me I had all sorts of stuff wrong with my teeth but because my insurance was new I had limitations…, GOOD THING TOO! He would’ve charged me for things that weren’t wrong with me. My hygienist already told me that most of the stuff he claimed I had in my visit with him is not true. So, this is guy is like a bad mechanic! He gives dentist’s a bad name and him and his slimy staff are all about trying to get you for your money since issues with your teeth or mouth make you vulnerable. I was at my dentist from 11:30 till about 2pm and Glenda never even sent the release form for my x-​rays and also told me that the xrays are the doctor’s property.
Well now I will appeal his charge for those xrays, since I have to pay for set of additional xrays again but this time out of my own pocket, since you want to delay and price gouge for something you already got paid for and sending an electronic email of my xrays COSTS = $ 0.00.I am filing a grievance and I shall report you to every dental association I can find!!! I think he should just grant his patients the copies of their x-​rays. What started off as a innocent request for xrays to I am so upset that…, I am going to report report and review about this guy everywhere!
PS: Don’t try to bribe me in taking down this review. I was that consumer you should’ve not crossed! I don’t appreciate people who make their wallets fat by trickery and deceit!!! That explains your very few 5 star reviews that you probably paid to do or did yourself. Honesty would be a better way to run your establishment Dr. Ahdout and staff! Remember your oath Doctor! I will advocate for my rights and let people know about your not so legal practice (s).

Dr. Adhout is by far the best dentist I’ve ever been to. I switched over to him after a negative experience with my previous dentist and have now taken my husband and best friend with me. Dr. Adhout and his assistant Rosie are very concerned about their patient comfort, and I even received a phone call from Dr. Adhout checking in on me after having a few filings done last week. 100% recommended!

Dr. Ahdout and his staff are the best! After receiving really inattentive dental care for years, I showed up at Dr. Ahdout’s office and discovered a dentist and staff who are excellent at their work and very caring. It was refreshing to be filled in entirely in regard to my dental situation (a severely decayed tooth), be presented with options with costs made very clear to me, and full respect for the course of treatment I chose, (I didn’t want the expensive options!). This office really is geared toward making people feel comfortable, maybe even happy about having dental work done (OK, forget about happy — let’s go with comfortable and confident)! Dr. Ahdout is the best and he employs the best to assist him. What a wonderful difference, I’ll tell ya!

Dr. Ahdout did repaired/​filled my teeth over 2 years ago. I still have problem with one of the fillings which I did not even think it was necessary. There is weird gap between two of my teeth that fruit seeds and etc get severely stock. Overall, I do not recommend.

I don’t usually do reviews. I went to Dr. Ahdout today and, wow. THE best dentist I’ve been to. Ever. I highly recommend! He made sure that I understand everything, he gave me my options, he made sure I know what I should prioritize. He made me at ease from the moment I walked into his clinic.

My wife went for
The first time
Today and she was very happy! Mind you she’s horrified of of dentist ! Her experience was wonderful and we will definitely be going back! The office and the dentist himself was great!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE everything about this office, the Dr. and staff are amazing, no waiting around like most offices, straight into the chair, Dr. right there immediately. I will never go to another dentist … absolutely the best!!!

Shady, shady, shady.
I went in for a «cleaning,» and was told that I needed to spend almost $ 800 dollars for a special scaling and re-​plating procedure, followed by a custom nightguard and an anti-​microbial rinse.
I politely declined. When I flew home a month later, my family dentist who I grew up with laughed at the story, said my teeth were fine, and charged me $ 80 for a normal cleaning.
Basically, they didn’t want to clean my teeth, as covered by my insurance, because they don’t make any money off of it. So, they invented a bunch of scary-​sounding expensive treatments that I *needed* to try and scam me. As Unilocal would say, «Eek! Methinks not.»

My husband and I had a hard time finding a good dentist once we moved to the area. We looked up Dr. Adhout and had our first visit. It has been a year and half now and we are both very pleased with his work. On our first visit, I had a deeply decaying tooth that had cracked during pregnancy and needed a root canal. He referred me to a great oral surgeon specialist. Dr. Adhout then made a crown that fits perfectly! They are very flexible with my work schedule and are always available even if I just need questions answered.
I recommend them to anyone looking to find a great dentist in the area.

I had this dentist blatantly admit he was only concerned about his practice and making money after he failed to set up a refferal to an oral surgeon.
Nothing about Nader Ahdout is gentle. He painfully sliced my gums all up during both routine visits. Never again. Worst dentist ever!!!
He even tried to apologize for his lack of concern for his patients health and welfare.

I just got back from my first appointment with Dr. Ahdout. I took my 3.5 year old daughter there a couple months ago for her first appoint. ever. Dr. Ahdout and his staff were amazing with my daughter. So, I decided to start going to him myself. And once again I was very impressed with my visit. He kept me well informed through out the entire process, was gentle, very fast, kind, and personable! I highly recommend him! Great dentist and staff!

We have been with Dr. Ahdout for the whole family for several years now. The office staff is wonderful, and he is a very kind and gentle dentist. He is excellent at working with children, as well. I highly recommend him to anyone of any age.

What can I say, I think it would have been good if I had gotten more dental services from Dr. Ahdout when I lived close to his office. I don’t know much about dentistry, but I was happy with the services performed here. Occasionally, I think about going to his office, even though I now live many miles away.
About Dr. Ahdout: he is personable, he has a website if you want to find out more about him.
