I felt obliged to post a review in defense of Doctor Adams. Since, he did a stupendous job repairing my cavity. I have had a great deal of dental work in my days: including braces and jaw surgery. And, he is the best dentist I have met yet. He and his staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Also, the other poster who gave him negative reviews said, I went home and did research which tells me that she must have been one of those people who think they know more than the DR. (even though he has a wall of degrees and they have a ten minute search of Web MD). Bottom line is if you need a dentist, Doctor Adams and his Daughter (also a dentist) are awesome. They will tell you like it is and are a joy to be around: a quality not often associated with the dentist!!!

Full mouth orthodontic treatment can be provided using conventional braces. This standard treatment has been used for many years. You may decide on full mouth or partial treatment just to straighten a few crooked teeth. Many adults, that had ortho treatment as children, have relapsed and just need an orthodontic 'touch-up' that can be completed in just a few weeks. If you dont like the idea of wearing braces again, even for a short time, then you need to read about the Invisalign orthodontic system.

Adams Dental Associates - General dentist in Sacramento, CA

Invisalign is an amazing system that allows patients to straighten their teeth like they have always wanted, without the unsightly metal brackets and wires glued onto the teeth. Using a series of clear aligner trays, patients can gently move their dental arch into alignment. These trays are comfortable, discreet, and easy to use, allowing teenagers and adults to smile more, laugh more, and enjoy their treatment!

Adams Dental Associates - General dentist in Sacramento, CA

Invisalign uses several aligner trays which are switched out every two weeks to reposition the teeth slowly. This method has been proven highly effective in realigning crooked teeth and helping to straighten the dental arch. It does require patients to be compliant with treatment, and wear their trays all day and night for the best results. The trays are removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

This particular method of orthodontia is used to address mild to moderate misalignment of the dental arch or bite. It is safe, effective, and widely available at practices in the Sacramento, California area such as our practice. Patients have seen dramatic changes to their smile and enjoy the benefits of a straighter, better-aligned smile.

Adams Dental Associates in Sacramento, CA considers patients smiles as their first priority, and offers a range of services that are geared towards making patients feel attractive and confident. Dr. Kosta Adams has decades of experience and expertise. Dr. Kristen Adams has enhanced the practice with her expertise in restorative, periodontal, cosmetic and implant dentistry.

Dr. Adam and his crew are a delight to have and a must go to for your dental care. I've been under their care for about three years and always had a pleasant visit. Just had a veneer placed and it was quick, easy, and painless. I will definitely recommend my family, friends, and Veterans to see him and Kristen for their service.

Veneers are very thin pieces of ceramic that are made to improve the smile by covering imperfections. They are fabricated to match the existing teeth and bond directly to the tooth to disguise discoloration, misalignment, and broken enamel. They are often an ideal solution and have become popular due to their versatility and simplicity.

When it comes to the creation and placement of custom porcelain veneers, patients should only trust a dentist with a strong attention to detail and a high degree of technical skill. Drs. Kosta and Kristen Adams have years of experience in providing patients with veneers, and they focus on each specific case. Every patients smile is unique, and our team ensures we do everything possible to enhance the positive characteristics of every patients smile.

Yes! Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin and are bonded over natural teeth. They are virtually undetectable in a patients smile. Unlike natural tooth enamel, they are also stain resistant, and the material closely mimics the shine and appearance of enamel. They are not only beautiful but strong, and are unsurpassed by other restorative solutions such as dental bonding.

When patients take great care of their veneers, they will find that they can last a decade or longer. Drs. Kosta and Kristen Adams use high-quality porcelain and strong bonding materials to allow patients to lengthen the lifespan of their veneers.

Porcelain can still crack and chip, so it is important that patients avoid chewing on hard foods and objects and wear a mouth guard at night if they experience unconscious clenching and grinding of the teeth while they sleep. Patients who do damage their veneers can have them replaced when necessary.

Are you considering the benefits of porcelain veneers? Do you want to find out if you are a proper candidate for them? If so, now is the time to contact the team at our office in Sacramento to determine if your smile could benefit from the placement of these versatile restorations.

Lumineers are ultra-thin veneers made of a proprietary material that is strong and translucent. Because they are so thin, Lumineers can usually be applied with no numbing or drilling. This low-prep method conserves natural tooth structure, and there is no post-treatment sensitivity. Although most patients are thrilled with their new smiles, results are reversible without harm to teeth.

They have cared for my teeth for 20+ years. Always warm and very trustworthy. I'd like to share my most recent visit, since it reflects the quality of care they have always provided. So my front tooth had a chipped bottom and my back tooth had a broken filling. First off, he fixed the broken filling without a problem. Next, Dr. Adams walked me through the options we had for the chipped tooth. I asked various questions to address my concerns. His explanations were comforting. For both my teeth issues, he gave me a full idea of what to expect. In the end, both teeth were cared for and function just fine now. No more worrying!

Dental bonding is the perfect alternative to other cosmetic dentistry procedures such as porcelain veneers. This restorative treatment is often used by the team to address imperfections of the teeth such as chips, cracks, discoloration, gaps, and misalignment.

Adams Dental Associates - General dentist in Sacramento, CA

Dental bonding starts with the preparation of the tooth. The surface of the tooth enamel is lightly etched to ensure a tight bond. Bonding liquid is applied and set, and then a plastic resin is used. It is sculpted onto the tooth by the dentist, and set with a special light. Once the resin has hardened, it can be trimmed, reshaped, smoothed, and polished to achieve the desired appearance. The material, once polished, resembles natural tooth enamel, allowing it to blend in beautifully with the teeth and improve the appearance of the smile.

Drs. Kosta and Kristen Adams are happy to offer their patients a variety of solutions to their dental concerns. All of our dental procedures are done with cosmetics in mind, as we believe patients should be able to obtain dental work that restores the function of the smile while also improving the beauty. We want all of our dental work to be discrete and beautiful. We also work with patients to determine the best solution to their dental concerns while taking into consideration their lifestyle, desires, and budget.

I cannot say enough good things about them. I have always had horrible anxiety at dental visits ( usually with reason). This office...ALL the staff are kind, patient, empathetic, friendly, competent, and funny! I don't hyperventilate anymore! My kids adore them. We make family appointments, they are so accommodating and great with my kids. 10/10 .

Adams Dental Associates performed implant surgery for me. I was very impressed with their professionalism, chairside manor and attention to detail. I experienced no discomfort throughout the procedure and very,very little afterwards. It was a breeze. Kosta Adams is a master dentist. I trust him!

This review is long overdue. I am a long time patient and a "feel like family" of Adams Dental. You will meet a wonderful family of incredibly talented and kind people working in a state of the art office with superb GOVID practices! More importantly you will forget any dental anxiety you might have had and become part of the Adams Family yourself!!

I must have never had a proper cleaning untile I came to this practice. I am not sure what they do differently, but my teeth have never been cleaner. For the last 4 years they have given me nothing, but fantastic service. The real reason I give this place 5 stars is that have show allot of integrity over those last 4 years.

I just love this practice. The docs are brilliant and obviously take a great deal of pride in their work. At the same time they are so nice, kind and cheerful. They make you feel like part of the family.

They were an hour late for my appointment, no apology, and then just kind of rushed through my cleaning since they were closed by the time she started. From the sound of the conversation, the person before me was a personal freind, so they very much on purpose made my appointment an hour late, to squeeze in her freind.

I spent the past three weeks prior to my scheduled procedure trying to get an appointment for bonding and fillings. On the day of my appointment I had a question about the form they had me fill out and after waiting for over 40 minutes the dentist came out and told me he refuses to treat me and that I should go to another dentist. Well I did and they charged 1/2 of the price that he charged and were more than happy to answer all my questions. I left Dr. Adams office in tears because of how badly they treated me. I can tell when someone is only after your money, they don't care about their patients at all, all they care about is how much money they can make from them. They lied to me about how much they were going to charge me and ultimately refused to treat me because the person at the front desk had me waiting for almost an hour and they said that I was "wasting their time." I was also extremely belittled after Adams said that people "like me" (being Asian) could never be a dentist or doctor because we aren't outgoing enough to talk to people. He went on to criticize my personality and tell me that I should "smile more." He was incredibly condescending, racist, and extremely unprofessional. I cannot believe he is still practicing and hasn't had his license revoked if this is the way he is treating his patients. Please do not support this practice, people like him should not be in business

Meet and greet was a very good approach to get familar with the Doctor and the staff. I loved to go through your mail sent to your neighborhood,especially the old fashioned care for the seniors who have limitations to follow the modern fast paced technology. Still as a senior I would follow whatever is recommended by my Dentist who by now is aware of my medical history. Now looking forward for my next dental cleaning appointment.

The best you'll find! Excellent customer service blended with decades of experience and state-of-the-art, best-practice techniques! I've been a dedicated customer with this practice for several years now and have interacted with all staff members on a one-to-one basis. After finding them on a Google 'top-five in Sacramento' list years ago, they have never disappointed. Rarely do I recommend businesses to my friends and family but I do with Adams Dental Associates. If genuine '5-star' customer service and sensitivity to your needs in the dental chair is important - this is the practice for you. The world would be a better place if more businesses conducted themselves with the level of skill, integrity, care and kindness that I receive from them.

Dr. Adams has been my dentist for 31 years. When my husband and I moved to Sacramento we found Dr. Adams in the phone book and I have to say that we have been truly blessed to have found him. He always explains what is happening with my teeth in terms that I understand. I am now 58 years old and if it wasn't for him I would probably have dentures. He taught me how to take care of my gums as well as my teeth.
