I've been going to Sand Canyon Dental for over 20 years and just love, love, love this office! I equate my dental appointment here as a special treat similar to the same feeling as going to get a mani/pedi or a massage simple because it's always a pleasant experience & I walk out of there always feeling good. The staff is warm and friendly and I love Dr. Samonte! The office is clean and the ambiance is relaxing and sets you at ease. One of my favorites is the choice of music that plays...totally music that I am familiar with (and without dating myself) can sing to! I don't think I have ever waited in the waiting room because they are efficient with their appointment times. In fact, the waiting room has coffee and water that I don't even have time to enjoy because I get called to the dental chair pretty quickly upon arrival! They also have nice amenities in the bathroom. I make most of my appointments after I get off work so I don't have time to run home to brush my teeth. Not to worry, their restroom is stocked with toothbrush and mouthwash so you can freshen up before your appointment. I was referred to this office by a close friend and in turn, I have referred several others here. I would do so again and again without hesitation! Thank you Dr. Samonte and Sand Canyon Dental for all your years of excellent service for not only me but for my entire family!!!

Today: This morning I broke a tooth. I called the Sand Canyon Dental office to see what they could do for me on such short notice. Even though they were very busy, they still made room for me in the early afternoon with Dr. Samonte. She was so kind, and very gentle. It is almost 8PM and I have had no pain or discomfort during, or since the procedure. I am so grateful for this caring and talented team. 4 years ago: Experienced and Caring Team I have been a patient of Sand Canyon Dental for many years now. I have not experienced a more skilled and caring team in all my 60+ years. Both Dr. Najaran and Dr. Samonte, as well as their wonderful staff, have consistently demonstrated a level of professionalism and genuine care and genteelness to me from the beginning. I can honestly say that I look forward to going to the dentist!

I would definitely recommend Sand Canyon Dental to family and friends. The staff : from the front desk (Tabitha), who was initial contact person, to the provider (Dr Samonte-Mora) with David assisting, all provided me with excellent patient services. They all made my visit a very pleasant and a very happy experience. Thank you Sand Canyon Dental!

Sand Canyon Dental is an awesome dental place. They are very kind and get you in as fast as they can. They stay in contact with you all day to let you know what her schedule is like and most importantly they are honest not just trying to drain your insurance. I drove three cities away just to go to this type of place
