My family and I have been seeing Dr Lester for over 12 years now and we love them. The staff is so pleasant and nice to talk to. Their office makes you feel at home. Dr Lester is great with kids too.

Just had an awesome first visit at Dr. Lester's. This is such a top notch operation, I felt compelled to share. Everything from the intake process, to the front office staff, to the patient chair experience was great. Dr. Lester did a fast, efficient, and pain-free service on my teeth. I'm a very happy patient. Thank you to everyone at the office!

Everyone that works for Dr. Lester are so nice. He's a great Dentist. I probably shouldn't tell you this, but they'll open up if you have an emergency. They took care of me early in 2020 when the pandemic started and my Dentist at the time just closed up leaving his patients stranded. I had a bad toothache at the time. My only complaint is I didn't find them sooner. It's a bit of a drive for me, but worth it.

Great local dentist, my three kids and I have been coming here for a couple years. The staff feels like family. My kids love getting toys and new toothbrushes after their checkups.

Dr. Lester, Laura and all of the staff are a wonderful dental team! I've been going to Dr. Lester's office since 1996 and had to leave briefly due to a change in my insurance. But once my insurance changed once again, I quickly returned to their office/services. They are very good at what they do and make you feel very comfortable and welcome.

Dr. Lester, Julie, and Lori are all fabulous to work with. In their comfortable, home-like professional setting, they'll take care of your teeth in a very gentle way. I'm so happy to have found them since moving to OC 4 years ago.

Really amazing service. Staff is friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I arrived early to my appointment and although they had other patients they still got me set up early and we're fast and thorough with their cleaning. The doctor was friendly and provided detailed explanations to everything going on with my teeth and provided a clear and helpful quote for future treatment. Will be coming back here regularly for now on.

I highly recommend Dr. Lester! I was referred to him by many people, after being over quoted by my current dentist for work I didn't believe I needed. Julie the office manager answered all my question & Dr. Lester treated my teeth with what I needed to avoid another root canal. After such excellent care, I now bring my whole family to see Dr. Lester. They are always so welcoming & make seeing the dentist easy.

Dr. David Lester DDS is outstanding! What a great dentist, happy, funny, kind, gentle... that's why all of his patients love him so much! His staff is wonderful, kind as well- professional and such a pleasure to be around. He is so wonderful, you could live in Los Angeles and I would still tell you to go see him!

What an awesome guy! Dr. Lester took me on late notice due to intense pain caused by teeth grinding. I think you will be hard pressed to find another dentist that is this kind. The office is very comfortable and decorated with cute tooth-health tips. I would very much recommend Dr. Lester - he is a true professional.
