I had pre-cavities, and before coming here I knew at that point they were probably cavities. I had 4 fillings here and have no issue with their diagnosis and treatment plan. Afterwards I had pain when flossing in between two of the teeth that had to have fillings. Not gum pain, tooth pain. A year later and one of the fillings broke and I'm unable to eat on that side of my mouth (going to a dentist in my current local area to fix) I don't have previous experience with fillings, so I thought the tooth pain when flossing was just something to deal with. I don't think that now and am unhappy with the dental work that was done. Their facilities and people are nice, though. I'm sorry to even post this with that consideration, but I'd bet I'd be in less pain currently if I'd never gone there. Editing my review since I think I was initially too harsh. After going to a dentist in my local area, the filling isn't broken, but had a bad seal. It needs to be redone, but the rest of the fillings are good.

Everyone at Zona Dental group from the office staff, hygienists, and Dentists are extremely friendly and professional. My cleaning was comfortable, and Stephanie did a great job of communicating with me to entire time. The exam with Dr. Richardson was complete and the polish they used took off coffee stains that I have not been able to remove before. I highly recommend them!

This is The Best dental office in town as far as I'm concerned. Excellent customer service always and great views from their picture windows. Even though going to the dentist is still my least favorite thing to do, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!!

One week ago I had my tooth extracted and had stitches. My husband and I had to travel to Tucson for work and I missed my appointment in Vegas. I was worried about finding a dental office that would remove the stitches. I called couple of dental offices near our hotel (The Westin) and got rejected because the surgery was done by a different doctor. I was so happy when the Zona Dental Group scheduled a same day appointment for me. Dr. Richardson was very fast and professional. I wish I would leave close enough to be his patient and have all my dental procedures done at the Zona Dental Group!

I cannot recommend them enough! I had some tooth pain, and they got me in fast and easy. The staff was very kind and friendly, and Dr. Sara Garcia was very clear, gentle, and attentive. When it turned out I needed a root canal I got an immediate referral and was able to drive directly to SAEndodontics to have my root canal done. Thank you!
