- Melissa V.I cannot say enough incredible things about this dentistry. Staff and Dr are very welcoming and kind. I have had no problems getting appointments scheduled within a reasonable time. Dr and staff always ensure I am well-informed and try to get the most out of my insurance. I have had a lot of fear from past dental experiences, but the approach of this office to their care is genuine. I definitely recommend their services.read moreread lessValerie l.The staff is great, very sweet people. The dr is professional and friendly. I’m so grateful for the people here.

Thank you White Crest Dental . You Rock!!!read moreread less
- Tiffany G.First off, let me begin by saying I NEVER write reviews -- but after my experience with Dr. Perez, I felt it was the only right thing to do seeing as he has changed my outlook on dentists all together. Dr. Perez is the BEST dentist in the Central Coast-- not just for people who are VERY fearful of getting dental work done like myself, but also because he is a grade A professional at his craft. I Went into his office and was greeted by a very friendly staff and felt comfortable through the entire process. He knew I had a fear from a past experience so he talked me through the whole thing and the remaining staff accommodated relaxing music, essential oils, and a positive energy presence . They are extremely flexible with my work schedule when making appointments and much more. I am very blessed to have found such a wonderful Dentist locally. I look forward to my next appointment!read moreread lessDawson M.I have been going to WhiteCrest for two years now and would highly recommend them.
