Dentistry, it's a field where you get to kind of call your own shots. I have my own practice and I get to get, you know, I wake up in the morning and it's my choice to decide how my day is going to go, and how I want to plan my day. But what's most rewarding is being able to help and build relationships with people and families. That I will see their children, and they will grow up, and we see them through elementary, junior high, and through college. And just to be able to see that progression ... That's part of the human experience, and I get to see that firsthand and be part of it.

And most people, when they think about how they grew up, and they don't remember their physicians too much, but most people remember the dentist. Sometimes not for good reasons, but now, I think that things have changed a lot in dentistry and that we're having a lot more of a positive relationship with our patients.

Dr. Javier Portocarrero, a dentist in Mesa, AZ decided to become a dentist because he enjoys working with his hands and interacting with people. His favorite part of his job is the long-term relationships he is able to build with his patients.

Goldman School of Dental Medicine. Dr. Javier Portocarrero has been practicing dentistry since 2004.

Following dental school, he spent three years working for a dental corporation. His stint in corporate dentistry inspired him to go into private practice in 2008, serving patients of all ages to the quality dental care they deserve.

After almost 14 years of practicing dentistry, he has seen many changes in the dental field. To keep up with the latest and greatest in dental techniques and technologies, he attends regular continuing education courses at prestigious organizations like the Engel Institute in North Carolina.

This place was great at face value, everyone was friendly and took time to chat. My problem started when it came to the actual dentistry. I had roughly 18 cavities and two crowns done there, I warned the dentist that I had a cross bite but he said it wouldn't be a problem. He scheduled 9 cavities and a crown for one visit on my left side and the the other 9 and a crown on the right with a short time between. They said the Lazer would be painless but it wasn't. The dentist also talked me into a $500 mouth guard, saying it would protect the crowns from shattering since I clench my jaws at night. Since I have had this work done, about a year ago, I have had so many issues, gone in several times for tooth pain, adjustment to the bite and the guard was hurting my teeth, which also had to be adjusted several times. I gave up on them and went to two new dentists for opinions on why after a year I was still having hot/cold and pressure sensitivity on both sides. They said the original dentist (Alluring smiles) didn't put enough blocked in while building up the filling, they would have to drill it all out and redo it to stop the pain. They also told me that I have a cavity after only 6 months of getting it filled due to a small crack they left unfilled. Alluring smiles is still charging me for the guard that I can't use, even after asking for a refund and paying over 5k for dental work that needs to be redone. Worst experience I have ever had! With a year of pain, they could at least forgive the $500 that I felt pressured into getting and haven't been able to use at all.

The dental office staff was kind and courteous! Which is always nice. My hygienist kept me appraised of everything she was doing. She is what made the experience so pleasant. The office was clean, nicely decorated and state of the art equipment is used there. Great job Alluring Smiles!

Reading the reviews with less than stellar experiences with Alluring Smiles, I can see a pattern that reflects our experience in the negative. We tried them due to an advertised offer. Big Mistake!!! Yes, the receptionist was curt and unprofessional ( as stated in another review here). The financial review was never understandable or explained. I requested a printout of the financial overview that the doctors course of treatment for myself.The receptionist couldn't get the printer to work. I didn't have time to wait and I requested if she could email me the printout, she said she would. She never did. My wife's course of treatment that was told to her did not match the printout showing cost and insurance coverage nor what she was told whenever she checked on where we stood financially. So, a major amount of teeth were pulled and some front teeth only to be given partials/dentures that didn't matche in color or size. That led to more future treatment and charges for future fixes needed. It was going out of control. My wife is not one to hold back when she is not pleased with how things are going and no empathy was displayed by them. She let them know on her last visit. My wife received a letter dated 10/26/21 that basically said, " go find another dentist". The reason given was due to "a breakdown in our office-patiant relationship". And just so there is no misunderstanding, my wife's smile Was the most beautiful smile I have ever seen. She was always very good at taking care of her teeth/smile. And, yes she missed some of her appointments due to being hospitalized or had health issues. That was explained to them. We got billed $50 for each appointment she missed. According to google, the definition of alluring is quite possibly appropriate for this practice. "Powerfully and mysteriously attractive or fascinating; seductive". Be cautious with your coupons/mailers/incentives to try healthcare. Feedback

The hygienists are awesome, very thorough and friendly. The doctor seemed like he knows what he's doing, but he rushed through this long list of pricey recommendations and left me feeling unsure and anxious. I've had a few encounters with their secretary, she is super curt and impatient.

I had a very positive experience while at alluring smiles dental office. Speaking as a person who is absolutely terrified of going to any dentist, it takes a great deal for me to be impressed! Both Gina and Dr P took a great deal of time to explain to me the treatment I would need. THANKS to you both!
