I have been coming here about 4-6 months for regular visits and procedures and this is the kindness, friendliest, and most empathetic dental office I've ever been to. I have a lot of fear and dental anxiety from past, poor experiences at other places and it can be difficult for me to keep up with routine care. But from the moment I came here, everyone in the office was so kind and empathetic to my circumstances and never made me feel ashamed about it or like I was a problem to them. They have gone above and beyond, pulling out all the stops to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I come in. They give me control over my care and explain everything as much as I need. It's quick and easy to schedule appointments. They have been helpful even when I needed to appeal something to my insurance. They remember my name and personal details like where I just went on vacation. I have met all three doctors and every person I have come into contact with has been amazing. In a healthcare system that can often make me feel invisible and like a problem, they have made me feel human again. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you for being so understanding and kind to me!

This office billed me, then billed my insurance. It took months to get my money back. During that time, the receptionist took a personal dislike to my trying to recover my money and made a point of expressing her unwelcome opinion. Only through assistance given by my insurance provider did I recover the overpayment. Double billing is fraud they kept up the pretense of innocence for almost a year. While treating my like a pariah. Why would you want an ex patient of yours that was treated poorly and was a victim of fraud by incompetence. What would you want me to come into your office to explain?

I am impressed with Dr. Piper Dankworth and her staff. Let's get to the point, I never had a dentist evaluate the health of my teeth and gums and discuss a game plan in FULL detail. Usually one tooth is looked at, as the others slowly fall apart. The cost is reasonable for Superior Dental Care!

I've been coming here since 2017. They have changed owners but staff has always been friendly and super helpful with billing. Always a pleasure to get my dental needs taken care of and billing broken down so there are no miscommunications. Thank you for the great service.

I've been Dr. Steve's patient since 1989. He has treated me from cavities to implants, root canals to 7-crown bridges, gum disease to abscesses, chipped teeth to routine dental exams. The full spectrum of dental care all done with sincere concern, integrity, craftmanship, & updated knowledge. I trust him explicitly. If he says it needs to be done, then it needs to be done,. He explains the needed work (& why), answers any questions & works with me timewise as well as moneywise. It is personal with him. He treats me & his staff like family. I like that!

I have tried many dentists in Oceanside. I could not have been happier with my experience at Oceanside Dental Excellence. The professionalism and personal care were unlike any I have ever experienced. My options were presented, and I was able to get my work done right then. Cinthia was knowledgeable and sensitive to my needs. Dr. Piper accomplished art work on my teeth. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

I am overjoyed with my new teeth. When I came in my mouth was a mess. Dr. Steve presented several options so we could decide on one that best suited my needs. I just had the final piece installed last week and I am delighted. I don't show my teeth much when I smile but it is great to be able to chew again. The entire office staff always made me feel welcome and well cared for.

I came to this office with a serious issues left by another dentist. The office staff was so amazing. Sympathetic and really caring. Dr. Dankworth (Stephen) is the most amazing human I've ever met. He not only cared about my situation, he set about doing everything he could to help me. The end results are more than I had hoped for. If you need dental work, please try this office out. You'll find truly caring people that are there because of a calling to help others, not just a job. THANK YOU ALL!! PS. I recommend OCEANSIDE DENTAL EXCELLENCE to everyone

Absolutely love this dental office! Every single person in this office is so kind and knowledgeable and encouraging. I hadn't gone to the dentist in quite a while and was very nervous. I would feel sick night before I was so scared. Now I'm more than halfway through my dental issues and they made it all possible I no longer feel scared. I go into the office and know that my smile is turning into something I hoped it could be. I highly recommend Oceanside Dental Excellence office and every single person that is employed there especially dentist Piper!
