Best dentist EVER! Low costs, coolest facility, and no pushy sales (EVER).

Dr. Oates is great! He's professional and efficient. I never have to wait to be seen for an appointment. I'm usually in and out for a regular cleaning in 20 minutes! He also does all of the work himself, no separate hygienist. I'm very pleased having him as my dentist.

Old school dentist and facilities. You'll enjoy the down-to-earth approach and professionalism. One third of the cost of my previous "fancy office" dentist, and better results!

I STRONGLY recommend using this dentist! He is very gentle, does not do unnecessary work, does not try and solicit more business - he is an honest up front good guy! Like I said, I STRONGLY recommend using this dentist! I've been seeing him for over 10 years now, and no matter where I move in the San Diego county, I will ALWAYS go to him - He is a dentist you can trust! I forgot to mention how affordable he is too! Seriously - I've never seen an office that makes it so affordable.

Dwight Oates took out my 4 wisdom teeth. He hit a nerve when he gave me the novacaine shot which gave me double vision for atleast an hour. After the procedure I got TMJ on one side of my jaw which has persisted ever since (6 years). While cleaning my teeth & my husband's on different occasions he would raise his voice explaining how we weren't doing a good job keeping up with our teeth (as he was conflicting pain.) When we didn't respond to Dwights phone message to schedule a 6 month cleaning-he proceeded to call and leave messages almost every day for about 3 weeks until one day I answered and explained we picked a new dentist. It seemed as though we were being stocked getting phone messages every day. Very scary.

About Hygienist: Dwight didn't have a Hygienist.

Oats may have been a dentist on "little house on the prarie" because his equipment is from that era. our father dragged us to him because he was "cheap" but we barely survived those years of dental horror. he filled us with mercury fillings and was as cruel as can be. i would never ever put my children through that kind of torture.

My husband goes to Dr. Oates and recommended that I see him too. I am very glad I did. He was very professional and his staff are all courteous!

I would highly recommend this dentist!!! I went to him to get a second opinion after seeing another dentist who was more like a "salesman". Dr. Oates is extremely friendly and makes you feel like you're at home. He doesnt try to sell you stuff you dont need, is very honest and you can tell that he is very knowlegable and has lots of experience. I will definately be going back to him for many years.

Small dental office, but personal. Dr. Oates is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I only had a dental cleaning and review, but he was able to identify that I have an unusal bone structure and teeth clenching problem that had been previously undiagnosed.
