Dentists in Encinitas

“Twenty years later, and I still wouldn’t go anywhere else. I first came to Dr. Mac in constant pain with complicated dental issues, and he literally saved my teeth. I’ll always be grateful.

Dr. Mac (Sr.) is the OG and the GOAT. His skill, honesty, compassionate care, and unwavering commitment to doing what’s right for his patients are unmatched. He will always be my favorite dentist.

Now I see Dr. Mac Jr. (Tyler) most often, and it’s clear he carries on his father’s legacy of excellence. He’s skilled, kind, thorough, and someone I trust completely with my dental care. I’m so grateful for this family legacy of exceptional dentistry.

The entire office is exceptional. Special shout out to Susan in the back office who is a wizard with the billing and insurance - she’s amazing.

After two decades of outstanding care, I can recommend this practice without hesitation. If you’re looking for a dentist you can truly trust—even with the most complicated cases—this is the place.“

“Always professional and friendly. Gentle yet thorough with my cleanings. Highly recommended!“

“We had an emergency orthodontic issue and are from out of town. They were able to get us in right away and fix the problem. They have an amazing and wonderful staff!“

“The Best Dental Experience Fair Accurate and Quality that my wife and I have had the pleasure of having in years. Highly Recommend Dr Willes and his wonderful and professional staff.“

“Great experience. Dr. Klein is personable and concise and my hygienist was technically excellent! She took her time and did a great job with the cleaning. Highly recommend this practice!“

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about this dental office! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcomed, comfortable, and truly cared for. The entire team is professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. They took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt completely at ease.

What truly sets them apart is how much they care about their patients — not just about teeth, but about confidence and overall well-being. Thanks to their expertise and attention to detail, I left with not only a healthier smile but a renewed sense of confidence. It honestly feels life-changing.

If you’re looking for a dental office that combines skill, compassion, and outstanding service, this is the place to go. I’m beyond grateful for the care I received and highly recommend them to anyone looking to restore their smile and their confidence!“

“As someone with severe dental trauma/anxiety, I highly recommend Dr. Horne and his assistant Eddie and everyone in the office. I came here for a second opinion and was so impressed by the time and thoughtfulness of Dr Horne to assess my specific situation and help me make the best most supportive decision for my dental health. They were able to get me in within days to have the work done and Dr. Horne put so much time care and attention into the work on my tooth. So many people are scared to go to the dentist and with this office, you don’t have to worry. You are in good hands. 10/10 recommend. They are helping me turn my dental fear around. Finding an honest caring dentist is something I’m so grateful for.“

“Let me start this off by saying I choose to drive here from Los Angeles because I know that when I come for my appointments the care I'm receiving Is nothing less than excellence every single time. I'm quite a nervous/fearful person when it comes to Dentist/Dr visits. Dr.Ismail and her team always make me feel safe and talk me through exactly what's happening along the way. Today I had a cosmetic procedure done on my gums. Throughout my appointment I was able to ask all the questions I wanted to and I was given highly detailed answers. I did not feel any discomfort during my whole visit and I was sent home with proper aftercare instructions. I never felt like any portion of my visit was rushed from check in to check out. Dr. Ismail is wildly talented, detailed, kind and has a very calming nature. I feel that coming to this office to see her is truly a privilege. Thank you Dr. Ismail!“

“Virtually no wait for my cleaning appointment. Very efficient and comfortable process. Additional services offered but not pushed, unlike other practices where the upsell seems to be the higher priority.“

“Typically, I tend to have a lot of anxiety around going to the dentist but here I felt totally at ease. Lindsey and Dr. Will are amazing. They're both so sweet and ensured I was doing well throughout the appointment. I appreciated that they were so thorough in explaining the process and answered all of my questions. I had such a great experience and will definitely be back!“

“Great customer service and superb workmanship quality! I have finally found a dentist i can trust!“

“First time here experience was excellent. The staff and Doctor was friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the entire process. They answered all of my questions.“

“My husband recommended Dr. Tran to me after my previous north county dentist started raising her prices to exorbitant levels. I have not looked back! Dr. Tran is a kind and friendly dentist. She does not try to sell you unnecessary treatments. She is also efficient as she does my biannual cleanings herself, and so they are always completed on time or early. Thank you for your excellent services, Dr. Tran!“

“I have been bringing both my kids here for years. My son has needed a lot of work on his teeth and Dr. Keller is great. He never feels any pain and has never been scared to go back! Which is amazing because he was young the first cavity he had. The whole office is so caring. I highly recommend them. My kids love going.“

“Dr. Davis and his staff were incredible during my dental emergency. Even though I had never been there before and it was close to closing time, they still made time to help me. Everyone I encountered was so kind and welcoming, and Dr. Davis was extremely thorough and had such a positive, calming energy. Amazing honestly feels like an understatement. I’m so grateful for the care I received and highly recommend this office.“

“I am so grateful to have found Dr. Matt, Theresa, and their entire team. My 16mo old baby girl fell at the park and chipped her tooth and I was so worried it was going to fall out or discolor or have some lingering effects when I started googling what happened (google gets me every time- ha!). We took her to Scripps and they recommended Dr. Matt so I called after hours and left a voicemail hoping they could get us in the next day. I actually got a call back from Dr Matt that night and I was in tears when I picked up, so worried about her. He was the kindest human to me, didn't rush me off the phone, and assured me my daughter was going to be okay and that he'd see her right away the next morning. We got there and the entire reception staff was great, then Theresa and Dr Matt kept her super occupied with adorable rubber duckies and distractions and she didn't fuss much at all which made my mama heart so happy. The night before she was screaming when the other doctor put her hands in her mouth so I was terrified for the dentist appt- and while she didn't LOVE them in her mouth she barely fussed and was smiling and saying "bye bye" to them at the end. He assured me I have nothing to worry about once again, that her tooth is solid in there still and that these things happen all the time. While I'm not stoked my baby fell and chipped her tooth, I'm so happy we now have an incredible pediatric dentist! In fact, I got home and told my husband hmm I wonder if they see adults since I'm quite the baby when it comes to the dentist, too . Thank you Dr Matt & team!!!“
