I was a former patient of Dr. Loller years ago but because of dental insurance coverage through work I had to switch to another dentist. I no longer have dental coverage and when I contacted Inspira Advanced Dentistry they informed me of the Loyalty Program for Seniors. That was it I jumped ship. I was very impressed with the office in Saratoga. The staff and services I received were outstanding. I am so gladI jumped ship.

I wasn't thrilled about needing a three hour appointment, but it all went as smoothly as possible. I was also impressed with the diagnosis, during my six-month checkup, since it was not initially obvious that I had issues that needed to be addressed. All staff were extremely helpful.

Dr. Vaswani has always been professional and compassionate in dealing with patients needing a bit more support with dental issues and fear of dentistry. I appreciate her direct but very understanding manner. She is a great addition to the practice.

I unexpectedly needed two crowns near the holidays, and they fit me in - no problem. The care was great! They make the crowns in-house on the spot, so there was no need for temporary crowns. The whole thing was almost completely painless (I know that sounds unlikely, but it's true), and the crowns were comfortable right away. I had no problems, but they had me in for a couple of minor adjustments - Dr. Vaswani clearly cares, and wanted to get it *just* right. Great job, and highly recommended!

Hands down the best dentist office I've visited... things that I loved: 1. my routine checkup was extremely thorough and they gladly showed me the pictures / x-rays along the way, explaining the work that I needed done. This is the first dentist that has taken the time to do this with me 2. Dr. Vaswani was kind, cheerful and clearly knowledgeable. 3. Colleen was super sweet and took my x-rays quickly and efficiently 4. Jenn cleaned my teeth really well, but gently, and gave me some great tips on brushing and flossing... never realized that brushing my gums was totally fine. 5. Mariela was super nice and made me laugh when taking pictures of my teeth! 6. all the equipment seemed brand new and comfortable 7. the office was decked out in PPE and I felt very safe Will be back!

I have visited this dental clinic twice. The staff are warm, welcoming and professional and I do not feel like a new patient at this office. Dr Sheena Vaswani re-filled a couple of my 20 year old fillings a month back and my pain/discomfort disappeared immediately after the treatment. I noted her next appointment after me - a little old boy who willingly walked in with his toy truck in his hand! Today, hygienist Vicki did a routine cleaning and I was impressed at how efficiently yet gently she did her job. All this while Noel, the masseuse gave me a lavender hand massage and I watched tv! If you are in search of a dentist, I highly recommend this facility. Ethical, professional and reassuring.

I'm thankful for Dr. Loller and her well trained staff. I had a TMJ condition that I'm pretty sure resulted in tinnitus, vertigo, visual disturbances, throat issues, sleep disturbances and more. I discovered that treating my jaw could alleviate these terrible symptoms and I found Dr. Loller and her staff. They have advanced training for TMJ disorder and opening the airway. So far my jaw has improved and no more popping and clicking when I bite, vertigo is alleviated with adjustments to my braces, Tinnitus is more stable, visual disturbances are gone and I'm looking forward to relief of all of these symptoms. I even had a great arm and hand massage to release tension in my neck and shoulder area.

Dr. Loller is awesome! Extremely knowledgeable in multiple procedures, and has a large network of specialists if she feels that that would be a better choice. It is all about the care of her patients. Also, a huge shout-out to the staff. All are very kind, patient, and happy to explain what needs to be done and why, and give you as many options as possible. Along these lines, shout-outs to Erika, Yvonne, Colleen, and of course, Tiffany!

Very professional setup with a diverse skill-set! 3 months ago, I had gone for routine cleaning, but Dr Loller's staff, upon sensing my heavy mouth breathing and congestion, performed a quick CBCT scan. The scan clearly showed polyps in my nasal passage, and quite a deviated septum. My nasal passages were blocked. Dr Loller insisted I see an ENT immediately, and recommended surgery ... her exact words: "it will change your life!" Within 2 months, after much trepidation, I had multiple polyps removed and my septum corrected, and now, a month post-surgery I am breathing freely, like never before. I can't thank the entire team enough, and I look forward to breathing through my nose for the rest of my life. Today, I went in again for my cleaning which incidentally needed deep scrubbing and I was prepared for extreme discomfort... but a gentle shot of anesthesia and a welcome foot massage made the experience a breeze. Vicki is a very friendly, thorough, and meticulous hygienist who explains every nuance in great detail. I am so glad I changed to Inspira Advanced Dentistry in Saratoga. Highly recommend!
