My experience at Coastal Smiles Newport Beach was by far the best experience at a dentist office I have ever had in my life. The office is as clean as can be, ocean views from your chair, complimentary coffee and water. The entire staff was very friendly and Dr. Green was excellent and very thourough. I have been to many different dentists and I no longer need to search for another dentist again. I highly recommend using Coastal Smiles Newport Beach!!!

Report
I had in office zoom whitening a few weeks back, and everything went great! This was my first time, so I had no clue of what it would consist of. Karla (the zoom whitening specialist) explained everything in depth for me which was very relieving. I also got custom made trays to whiten at home! Karla did a very good job of explaining each step and even gave me a goody bag which consisted of at home whitening instructions, post operative instructions, and fluoride toothpaste to help with any sensitivity! Dr. Green even stopped by and sent me a before and after pic! Overall it was a great visit.

DR. Green is very knowledgeable and friendly. She will make honest recommendations of what needs and should be done. Staff is friendly, and different than many dentist offices, they are always on time. I just changed a crown there and it is 100% better. I highly recommend her services.
