    Hands down one of the best Dentists I've ever been to. Dr. Bijan Afar worked his magic on me. Definitely recommend 10/10!

    Before finding Dr. Afar, I took my mom to another dentist to fix her teeth. They gave us a treatment plan that cost $7,000 and did not even include a temporary tooth, which was very disappointing. A friend recommended Dr. Afar, and I'm so grateful they did. When we visited his office and explained the situation, he immediately understood our concerns and first provided a temporary tooth, which made my mom very happy and comfortable while waiting for the final result. The entire process was very smooth, stress-free, and handled with great care and expertise. Not only was the final result even better than we expected, but he also charged about half the price we were originally quoted. Dr. Afar is incredibly caring, skilled, and honest. It is rare to find a dentist who truly prioritizes both quality and fairness. God bless him. I would definitely recommend Dr. Afar to anyone in need of dental care.

    I can't recommend Dr. Bijan Afar highly enough! From the moment you walk into his office, you're greeted with warmth and professionalism from Leandra. Dr. Afar's expertise as a periodontal dentist is truly remarkable. He takes the time to explain every procedure with clarity and patience, ensuring you're comfortable and well-informed. His gentle approach and exceptional skill made my dental experience smooth and virtually pain-free. The care and attention he provides go beyond expectations, making each visit a positive one. His staff is equally wonderful--friendly, attentive, and efficient, creating an inviting atmosphere. His Assistant was April! My husband & I will only see him & Azi (Hygienist). Thanks to Dr. Afar, my periodontal health has significantly improved. If you're looking for a dedicated, compassionate, and highly skilled dentist, Dr. Bijan Afar is the one to see!

    Dr. Afar cured my TMJ pain that I had been having for over a year. He used his own design for a nighttime mouth guard and it did the trick! I used to have pain opening my mouth even a normal amount and also pressing on the TM joint and now that's all gone. I'm very grateful to him and highly recommend him and his staff of other dental professionals.

    I've had an amazing experience at the dental office of Dr Bijan Afar. It was the best teeth cleaning and whitening. Dr Bijan and the nurse were very friendly and caring. I felt like I could trust them with my mouth, my life, and more. They were professional and soothing. The procedure was fast and painless. I've learnt so much how to take care of my teeth and gums. I definitely recommend you this office. And I'm definitely coming back in two weeks. And I'm forever grateful.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Dental Questions

What is cosmetic dentistry and how can it improve your smile?
Cosmetic dentistry is a set of personalized treatments, whitening, veneers, bonding, contouring, and Invisalign, designed to enhance the color, shape, alignment, and overall appearance of your teeth. Even small changes can transform how you look and how you feel about smiling.
Why are dental implants one of the best solutions for missing teeth?
Dental implants are the closest thing to a real tooth. They look natural, function like a natural tooth, and, unlike bridges or dentures, preserve the underlying bone in your jaw. With proper care, modern implants have a long-term success rate above 95%.
How does Invisalign help straighten teeth without traditional braces?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable, custom-fit aligners to gradually move your teeth into proper position. Most people won't even notice you're wearing them, and you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss.
Why are routine dental cleaning and exams important for oral health?
Cleanings remove tartar that brushing alone can't reach, and exams catch issues like decay, gum disease, and oral cancer when they're easiest and least expensive to treat. Most adults benefit from a visit every six months.
When should you seek emergency dental care?
Call us right away for severe tooth pain, a knocked-out or broken tooth, an abscess, uncontrolled bleeding, or facial swelling. We reserve time every day for same-day emergencies and can guide you over the phone until you can be seen.
