Western Dental attracts some of the best and brightest dentists from top dental schools across the country and around the world. And every one of them is dedicated to helping you chew, nibble, gnaw, smile and help you keep those pearly whites for a lifetime.

Our dentists are passionate about providing patients with the best possible dental care. Thats why every Board-certified Western Dental dentist stays on top of the latest technical training in their area of expertise by completing an ongoing series of clinical education courses throughout their employment. It keeps them up to date on the most effective clinical practices and technologies available in the industry. We not only demand that of our dental professionals, but we make it our pledge to you.

Prior to joining Western Dental, Dr. Luther served as the Chief Dental Officer & Senior Vice President-Dental Management for DentaQuest, the third-largest oral health enterprise in the country, and served as Chief Dental Officer for UnitedHealthCare Dental

Bleeding gums can be a sign of gingivitis (inflammation of the gums), or gum disease, a more advanced stage known as periodontitis. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to serious problems like bone and tooth loss. Infection in your gums can spread to other parts of the body and has been linked to heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Fortunately, there are ways to manage gingivitis and gum disease. See your dentist to evaluate the type of treatment right for you based on the condition of your gums.

Your dentist will discuss your concerns with you prior to treatment and make every attempt to make you comfortable during treatment using the type of anesthesia and sedation best suited to your needs.

Periodontitis, or gum disease, is common but fairly preventable. The cause is usually poor oral hygiene. Periodontitis can lead to tooth and bone loss, and it's a risk factor for heart and lung diseases.

Without knowing the specific pain medicine you used, I can tell you that some medications cause dry mouth that can increase your chances of tooth decay or gum disease, which can result in tooth loss. When taking medication, its important to be diligent in maintaining an oral hygiene regimen to minimize the effects of medications on your dental health.

If you are uneasy about dental procedures, sleep dentistry is an option for many patients. Sleep dentistry can range from deep sedation, or general anesthesia, recommended for tooth extractions and complex oral surgeries, to a kind of twilight sleep that will put you in a very relaxed state. Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, is another option for relieving anxiety during dental visits and is appropriate for patients of all ages, including children. Your dentist can discuss whats right for you.

We're here to make sure everyone has access to complete dental care of the highest quality. Not just check-ups and fillings: complete dental care including braces, implants and oral surgery. We have everything a healthy smile requires in one place.

We set our prices for people, not pop stars. Plus we accept almost every insurance plan, offer our own plans for people without insurance and help you cover the bill with CareCredit and in-house financing.

Western Dental Kids - Pediatric dentist in Sunnyvale, CA

Weve been making quality care more affordable since our founder, Dr. Curtis Beauchamp, opened his first office in 1903. Like a lot of visionaries back then in Los Angeles, he did a lot more than start a practice. He opened up dentistry to the people and championed the idea that everyone should have good oral health.

He did it by delivering excellent care at affordable prices and letting his patients pay over time. Back then, they called it 'Credit Dentistry.' These days, it 's how almost all of us afford the braces, root canals and implants we need.

By the 1930s Dr. Beauchamp and his son, Dr. Robert F. Beauchamp were treating thousands of patients at multiple locations. Fast forward to today, and we serve over 1 Million people a year in four states.

I was excited to try the Sunnyvale location out.. unfortunately the strict covid rules still in place as if its 2020 is really ridiculous. They require you to wear masks but front desk girls acted as if providing us masks was a hassle. There are like 5 chairs scattered around the room more than 10 ft apart. So no chairs for my son and I to sit next to each other in (im 8 months pregnant btw) They won't let you go back with your child, even though every dentist I've been to has let me post covid. Not only that, THEY MAKE YOU WAIT OUTSIDE. CANT EVEN SIT IN THE WAITING ROOM. Even the hospitals are not this covid scary strict anymore. Can not comment on how they treated my child or what they did since I could not be back there with them. Will continue our search for a good pediatric dentist

Everyone is so kind and welcoming. Front staff is kind and attentive. Dr. Rakow is absolutely amazing and patient. My 6 year old was so traumatized from a previous office and they handled him so well and made him feel so comfortable. We love this place!

Terrible place, because I was five minutes late they did not take my two year old. I always have to wait 30 to 40 minutes before they take me in and because I am five minutes late they did not take me it's ridiculous.

Terrible service, they never answer the phones and when you get there they don't want to take care of you because you are 10 minutes late when they keep you 40 minutes when you're on time it's ridiculous.

This place is a joke! I called to make an emergency appointment for my son, as he was having terrible tooth pain. Because they didn't have any availability, I had to call his regular pediatrician to see what they think. Turns out he had an infection and needed antibiotics. A couple days later, we got an appointment at western dental kids in Sunnyvale. The doctor there said the tooth needs to come out, so please come back early the next morning. We got there the next morning just for them to say the doctor called I'm sick and we can't treat him, yet they had another doctor there that morning. I asked if they had anything the rest of the month and they said no. I asked about appointments in October and they said we don't have the schedule yet. So, they just left my son in pain and didn't do anything about it. They also make us wait for whenever they have openings. Emergency appointments should be priority over anything else, as tooth pain and infections are very serious. It's so frustrating! Please stay away from this office, especially if you need an emergency appointment. Definitely find somewhere else to go!

We've been coming to the Sunnyvale childrens dentist for years and each time it's a good experience. The reception is friendly and accommodating and the dentist techs are kind and speak very nicely to the kids. The kids have never had a bad experience thanks to the caring dentists here. Thank you

I had an appointment for my son this morning. The front receptionists were very impolite and rude. I have to cancel the appointment and going to another dental office. The manager or owner need to train your workers to be nice to customers.

My son had a clean-up appointment this morning. He happened to have some serious pain in gum. Dr. Codel , the front desk lady and other staff, they are so responsible and helpful. They tried their best to help us. So my son got his treatment without any delay. I feel so grateful.
