We love the way they handle kids to give treatment. Kids love to go to Starbrite dental as each and every person is very friendly and polite. While adults treatment is going on, they take care of kids who are sitting in the frontdesk room. We are thankful for each person there as they try to explain our insurance policy.

This place is peaceful and accommodating. They go the extra mile for those who are intimidated by going to the dentist. Very gentle, etc. Try them out, and you will not be disappointed. I drive 45 minutes to go there instead of other places, because they are consistent and kind.

The associate doctor who treats is really patient, professional and knowledgable; the main doctor took time to greet me even though she doesn't treat me; front desks people are surprisingly helpful and friendly.

I wanted to give the rating in negative, but that is not an option....but be aware about all these 523 misguiding rating of 4.9 as my experience says star bright cannot keep their promise to the minimal even to give an appointment when patient is under high dose of pain killers for unbearable teeth pain, in spite of informing that to them for multiple times. They wasted my whole one week time by keeping me on wait for their call for appointment date and on the 7th day they told they don't have any slot for next 3 weeks. But they promised they will do the wisdom teeth plucking and another teeth root canal and crown within first week when I contacted them first. On the first day they took thousand of X-ray images, same image multiple times for not able to set up the camera properly in multiple try....wasted almost my one hour and at end doctor came to meet with me just for 2/3 minutes after that they told they will call me for appointment. I inform them multiple times that I am having tremendous teeth pain and taking high dose of pain killer and need the appointment asap. They ignored that request and kept me on wait for one week and at last when I proactively contacted with them they told they are completely booked for next 3 weeks. And another thing...they then tried to send me to another city altogether for referral for another dentist although there are several dental offices are in Fremont.....So be aware of them and don't get fooled by this 4.9 google rating.

So glad I found StarBrite! I've had my teeth cleaned several times here as well as a few fillings. They have never made me wait and all of the staff are very professional, friendly and careful. I never got a hard-sell for optional procedures. They have very modern equipment and comfortable treatment rooms. I highly recommend Dr. Lokhandwala and her talented colleagues. You won't be sorry.

Gentle fillings, flexible scheduling. The dentists are really nice, and I pretty much fell asleep during my second filling appointment. They also helped me with the documentation I needed to file a claim to my insurance for getting a night guard made. And the scanning equipment for making the night guard seems really new!
