I have always had a great experience with Mona Lisa Smile and should have written a review years ago. It starts with the friendliness of the receptionist when you walk in the door and extends to the staff and finally Dr. Khandaqji. I have had a lot of dental issues over the years but always knew that Dr. Khandaqji would be able to take care of me. He is very well-versed in the latest technology and truly invests a good deal in owning and being able to use the newest dental machines and equipment. Dr. Khandaqji is so very thorough and detailed in his work. He truly wants everything perfect! Sahar, the dental hygienist, is very thorough and knowledgeable in her craft of cleaning teeth. This is the best dental practice in the area hands down!!

I was nervous about finding a new dentist after moving across the country and wasn't sure anyone would take proper care of me. Then I found Dr. Khandaqji, and I can't recommend him and his office enough. It never felt like a typical dentist appointment. Everyone in the office is friendly and Dr. Khandaqji and his staff make me feel special and truly cared every visit. His attention to detail and drive for perfection are unmatched. I will forever appreciate this man and what he has done for me - highly recommend for anyone looking for a new orthodontist or general dentist.

I had a great experience at Mona Lisa Smile Dental! They did an amazing job with the AirFlow treatment, whitening, and cleaning my teeth. My teeth feel super clean and look noticeably whiter. Definitely recommend!

I had an excellent experience at Mona Lisa Smile Dental! Dr. Khandaqji and Sahar, the hygienist, were both amazing, professional, and attentive. They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire visit and took the time to make sure I understood the process and felt well taken care of. One of the highlights was experiencing Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with Airflow technology. It was a completely different experience from a traditional dental cleaning! The Airflow technology uses a gentle stream of air, warm water, and fine powder to help remove biofilm, stains, and buildup. The cleaning felt modern, thorough, and much more comfortable than I expected. I really appreciated the focus on prevention, precision, and keeping my teeth and gums healthy. Sahar did an outstanding job with the cleaning, explaining the process and making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Dr. Khandaqji also made a great impression with a professional and caring approach that gave me confidence in the quality of care I was receiving. It’s clear that Mona Lisa Smile Dental values both patient comfort and modern dental technology. If you’re looking for a dental office that goes beyond the typical cleaning experience, I highly recommend giving them a visit. Dr. Khandaqji, Sahar, and the entire team made this a genuinely positive experience. I would absolutely recommend Mona Lisa Smile Dental to anyone looking for excellent dental care and a refreshing new approach to teeth cleaning!
I highly recommend Mona Lisa Smile Dental to anyone looking for an amazing dentist and excellent dental care! Dr. Khandaqji is an outstanding dentist who is not only professional and knowledgeable but also has a great attitude and truly cares about his patients. He makes the entire experience comfortable and welcoming. Sahar, the dental hygienist, is amazing at what she does. She is very friendly, gentle, and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout your visit. Danial and Javier, the dental assistants, are also fantastic! They are professional, helpful, and always have a positive attitude. The entire team at Mona Lisa Smile Dental provides excellent customer service and creates a friendly, welcoming environment. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and take pride in their work. I highly recommend this dental office to anyone looking for quality dental care, a great dentist, and an amazing team!

From the moment I walked in receptionist Maliyah made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. The entire staff is incredibly friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. Dr. Khandaqji placed 3 of dental implant, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He explained my treatment thoroughly, answered my questions, and made me feel confident throughout the entire process. I experienced no pain afterward, and the implants looks so natural that you honestly cannot even tell I have. I had been shopping around and researching my options for a dental implant from the very beginning, and I am so glad I trusted Dr. Khandaqji and his amazing team. Choosing them was absolutely the right decision, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my experience. If you’re considering getting a dental implant or looking for a dental office you can truly trust, I highly recommend Mona Lisa Smile Dental. You will not be disappointed!

I cannot recommend this dentist enough! I recently had a dental implant done, and I can confidently say it was one of the best dental experiences I have ever had. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Finding a good dentist can be challenging, especially when it comes to something as important as dental implants, but I am so happy I chose this office. What truly sets this dentist apart is the level of professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine care for patients. Getting a dental implant can sound intimidating, but the entire experience was much better than I ever expected. The dentist took the time to explain the procedure, answer my questions, and make sure I felt confident and comfortable with my treatment. The quality of care was exceptional, and I could tell that patient comfort and achieving the best possible results were top priorities. It is rare to find a dentist who combines excellent clinical skills with such a caring and patient-centered approach. The entire dental team also deserves recognition for creating such a welcoming and professional environment. From the overall atmosphere to the quality of dental care, everything made this a truly positive experience. If you are looking for one of the best dentists for dental implants, restorative dentistry, or general dental care, I highly recommend this practice. Whether you need a dental implant, are considering replacing a missing tooth, or simply want a trustworthy and experienced dentist, this is definitely an office worth visiting. I am extremely grateful for my experience and could not be happier with my decision. Five stars without hesitation! I would absolutely recommend this dentist to my family, friends, and anyone looking for high-quality dental care and an outstanding dental implant experience.

The experience was unlike any dental office I've visited before. The examination was incredibly thorough. They took photos, scans, measurements, and explained everything in a way I could understand. Instead of simply telling me what treatment I needed. Dr. Khandaqji showed me the causes of my dental problems and helped me understand my options. I left feeling informed and confident. It was very clear that Mona Lisa Smile Dental focuses on health, function, stability, and aesthetics, not just fixing teeth. I'll definitely be coming back for my future appointments.

My family has been going to Dr. K and Sahar at Mona Lisa Smile since 2010. Every time we have gone, whether it be for our half-yearly cleanings, x-rays, or Invisalign tray visits, each time they are swift and proficient in their work. This along with their welcoming hospitality is why my family will always come back here and recommend anyone looking for a dentist to Mona Lisa Smile!

I just can’t say enough great things about Mona Lisa Smile Dental and the amazing team, especially Dr. K and Sahar. I’ve had extensive dental work done with Dr. K over the years, starting with Fastbraces, which was an incredibly positive experience and gave me a life-changing result. My smile has completely transformed, and I’m so grateful for the care and expertise I received. Since then, I’ve also had fillings, regular cleanings, and most recently, three wisdom teeth extracted. The entire procedure was done professionally, smoothly and efficiently in under 10 minutes. They got me in right away, which I am so thankful for since I was experiencing lots of pain from it. What initially seemed like a very scary procedure was completed within minutes, and Dr. K and Sahar went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire process. I am happy to report that my recovery was very easy, with very minimal swelling and little to almost no pain. They both make every visit such a positive experience with their kindness, professionalism and genuine care for their patients. Dr. K, Sahar, and the team at Mona Lisa Smile Dental continue to provide the best dental care in the entire Bay Area. We truly appreciate the exceptional treatment we receive and look forward to returning. Dr. K is not only highly skilled, but also genuinely kind and caring. It is more like a visiting a friend than going to the dentist. They even created a personalized recovery plan for me to accommodate my nursing restrictions, which meant so much. Dr. K, Sahar and the whole team consistently go above and beyond, and they are the reason we gladly travel the distance for such exceptional dental care. I always refer anyone who is seeking dental treatment to visit Mona Lisa Smile Dental, no matter the distance, because it is definitely worth it! Thank you Dr. K and Sahar! We appreciate you guys!!

Mona Lisa Dental is great! His staff is very welcoming and kind. Dr. Mohammad did an amazing job on my Root Canal. 0 pain! Him and his staff did a tremendous job! Finding a dentist you can trust is important and I’m glad I stumbled upon Mona Lisa Smile Dental. He’s very knowledgeable and cares about his patient’s teeth. He explains all the details needed to help his patients prevent whatever dental issue they’re experiencing. Very proactive, careful, and analyzes your teeth to provide the best step to take forward.

i can’t say enough good things about mona lisa smiles!! the whole team is so kind and welcoming, it doesn’t feel like a typical dentist office at all. dr khandaqji, sahar, sofya, and the whole staff are all amazing — they really take their time and make sure everything is perfect and you’re getting the best dental care there is. i got composite veneers, my annual teeth cleanings, teeth whitening strips (which have changed my life truly they’re so good!) and some cavities filled, and my smile has never looked better. i couldn’t ever go to another dental office again and i cannot recommend mona lisa smiles enough.

My family and I love Mona Lisa smile. The professional staff and excellent care always exceeds our expectations. I have been taking my daughter here since she was four years old. She is now 11 and doesn’t feel comfortable to go anywhere else. The doctor always takes his time to pay attention to extra detail. He handles you with care and his knowledge is always a pleasure to experience thank you Mona Lisa smile for all that you’ve done over the years for myself and my daughter. I feel like family every time I walk into the door. This is exactly the place that anyone should wanna bring themselves and their children.
