Summer Xia DDS - Dream Dental

I got my routine teeth cleaning done here recently at Dream Dental.

Note: they have a new temporary location until the end of November 2023 at 5617 Geary Blvd, which is where I went. I do not have any experience going to their original location on Taraval.

Calling to make an appointment was quick and simple and they had plenty of times available. Their Geary office is new, spacious, and clean. It had that "new" building smell to it. I was quickly led to the back into my chair where the detail assistant took x-rays of my teeth. They projected the images on a large tv screen in front of me and then Dr. Ramirez came in to review the x-rays with me and also do a manual inspection. He then proceeded with a standard teeth cleaning. We wrapped up by allowing me a chance to ask him questions and receive aftercare advice.

I believe their office provided a quality cleaning and would recommend them to anyone looking for a new dentist in the area. They also accept many forms of insurance, including Medi-Cal.

Nice? yes. Gentle? sure. Critical/judgmental? Blessedly, not outwardly so...

My criticism is the lame job of "cleaning" he did. I can honestly do better removing tartar with a metal tool myself. Yeah, I am aware that what he called the "cleaning" that I got was somehow DIFFERENT from the "deep cleaning" he needed explicit approval from my insurer to so much as even SCHEDULE me.

Too polite to criticize him to his face, but just between u & me? Hard pass. If a fully fledged dentist doesn't know damn well that thorough tartar removal - AT LEAST ABOVE thr gum line, for heavens sake - is the very PURPOSE of a legit dental cleaning, then I wouldn't like to discover what OTHER typically "standard practices" his patients are cheated out of unless requested - for line item billing, of course.

Really good experience today for my children. They came in for a routine dental cleaning. Dr. Ramirez did the cleaning and is great with kids. Both of my children had a good experience and they also had x-rays and my kids were very happy. I highly recommend this place for a dentist. Next time I want to come here for my cleaning too. I liked that they were very professional, answered my questions and provided me with useful information. Looking forward to bringing my kids back for their next appointments.

Dr. Ramirez is amazing! My kids had 2 visits before writing this review, I wanted to make sure it was fair & honest. My 13 year old daughter conquered her fears of the dentist today. I am in disbelief! I truly believe Dr. Ramirez played a part in that. He was very gentle and explained step by step while he was working on her. He was also very good with my rambunctious toddler! His dental assistant is very sweet. She held my daughter's hand during the numbing to help calm her down! 5

Small quiet office the waiting room is nice & clean! The wait isn't too bad. I am thrilled to have found a good dentist close to home in the outer sunset!

Scheduled two weeks ago with Dr. Ramirez. It was an emergency appointment. 20 minutes before appointment, he calls and cancels. Reason: they don't have all my records from my doctor's office!!! I suppyfrom now on, I'll have to call my doctor to confirm my doctor has sent all records! Very unprofessional. Very sloppy job. The good reviews of this place might be due to Dr. Summer, not sure, but definitely not Dr. Ramirez.

It was my first time coming here for a teeth cleaning and Dr.Ramirez did a fabulous job cleaning my teeth. Let's be honest, no one likes going to the dentist lol. However, he was gentle and made my visit pleasant. I will be returning. Thank you very much.

I don't leave a lot of reviews, but I am compelled to leave one for Dr. Summer (Xia). I've had a lot of dental work done in my life, but I have never, ever, met a dentist that has the skill set, compassion, and care that Dr. Summer possesses. Her practice is aptly named "dream dental." One thing I really dislike about going to other dentist' is being referred out. That won't happen with her! Dr. Summer is the only dentist I have ever found that has a complete skill set and can do virtually any procedure. Most other dentist's only do basic things like fillings and crowns, then if you need something more complex, like a root canal, dental implant, or veneer, they refer you to another dentist. Not Dr. Summer! She has an amazing and complete skill set. She does difficult extractions, root canals, implants, and veneers. Her office is equipped with all of the needed technology to get these procedures done efficiently. She is very gentle and her procedures are pain-free. It's not difficult to make appointments with her office, I've been able to get in within a few days and if the problem is urgent, she sees me the same day. If you're looking for an awesome dentist, with a great personality and a skill set far superior to virtually all other dentists, Dr. Summer is for you!

Dream Dental and Dr. Rodriguez provided the best experience I've had with dentistry! I was very anxious before my first appointment however, the staff and Dr. Rodriguez pit me at ease. Dr. Rodriguez has a gentle and patient touch and demeanor. Five stars!

They just did unnecessary x-ray and did not do details x-ray for front teeth, did not do scaling for cleaning of teenager, just tried to get easy money from insurance.

Saw Dr. Daniel Ramirez DDS, other dentist at Dream Dental, new patient. (Change in insurance). Extraordinarily clean office, new latest equipment, efficient, pleasant manner. Very observant of all my extensive past work and pointed out progressing conditions to watch, and explained their importance. Equally professional and pleasant staff. All paperwork efficiently processed ahead of time, so checkout was a breeze and no surprise charges, despite thorough exam, cleaning and full set of X-rays. Highly satisfied.
