out of Read Reviews for Dr. Katayoun Setareh
Contrary to advertised claims, this office is not interested in ‘healthy’ smiles. Whether Dr. Satareh is intentionally negligent or just plain incompetent, I’ll let the dentistry board decide. In either case, her brand of dentistry does not result in a ‘healthy’ smile as claimed, but is performed in such a way as to generate income. In other words, it is built to fail. To last just long enough so that you’ll have to pay to have it redone. In the meantime and if you’re lucky, you won’t have lost those teeth to rot.
Who am I? I am someone who brushes 2 to 3 times a day, flosses and waterpiks daily, and has been having dental cleanings 3 times a year. Work I’ve had done in the past at other dental offices has lasted decades. Not so at this office. When Dr. Satareh was challenged, I was told it only had to last 5 years which happens to be the point at which the insurance companies are willing to pay for it again. At least, what they are willing to cover. The rest is out of your pocket. That’s just the bridge. There was other work performed that I found questionable, which a second opinion has confirmed for me as below standard.
I would have been grateful if someone had taken the time to review this dentist.
About Front Desk: The only qualified people seemed to be the front desk. Unfortunately I'm not going to this office for administration purposes, but to have my teeth maintained.
Hygiene rating:
About Hygienist: Sharareh Shahin pretended to clean my teeth. Unfortunately I didn't discover this until a number of visits had past due to the chatter. If she cleans your teeth take notice. YOu'll find she does a lot of talking and just taps the tool around in your mouth as if she is doing something.

Going to the dentist has always been a drag for me, I hate getting my teeth cleaned and it always makes me nervous when the dentist and assistants start poking and prodding in my mouth. This last time I was at the dentist it was found that I had a small cavity. Dr Setareh was very patient with all my questions and concerns. She explained the entire process of fixing the cavity, and as well the costs involved. She made the uncomfortable, comfortable! The procedure was quick and painless, and my tooth no longer hurts... success!!! I would highly recommend Dr Setareh and the entire team at Simi Valley Dental Group.
