I've been seeing Dr Patel and Mruga and their team for over 5 years. They are always personable and professional. I get excellent care here. Their endodontist is fantastic-- never thought I'd say I had a "good experience" with a root canal, but I did! Nothing but good things to say about them!

I'm a 67 year old man and I've been to many dentist over the years. Dr. Patel and his staff are the best. They are very friendly and will do a great job for you.

I recently got deep cleaning by dental hygienist Mruga. If I compare my teeth before and after the cleaning, there is a huge difference. Mruga did a great job working on my teeth. You can just tell the way she was giving me the cleaning. She was so gentle, and caring with it. She explained everything very nicely to me. I really loved my experience at Smile Corona Dental Clinic. I highly recommend this place to visit.

Beware! Don't let this office treat you and bill unnecessary treatment! For example, if you do not have sensitivity to cold or a high rate of decay/cavities you should not need a fluoride treatment! If your perio(gum) pockets are 2,3, or 4 millimeters you do not need deep scalin . Most people need x-rays once per year and not a full mouth, just bite wings and anterior if you have had any fillings or issues with those areas.
