“While searching for a dentist near me, I found a real jewel in Alameda, where I live! Alameda Aesthetic Dentistry! Ian Fuller, DDS is everything you want in a dentist: knowledgeable, professional, capable, trustworthy, and friendly. I had what I thought was a loose crown. It turned out to be a loose implant. Dr. Fuller replaced necessary part and repaired the implant by drilling through the existing crown without having to remove it. He discovered a cavity under an old crown. He removed the old crown, drilled out the cavity and replace it with a new crown, using the newest technology (using a scanner) to assure crown was a perfect fit. Both procedures were extremely cost effective. I am so impressed with Dr. fuller as a dentist! His whole office staff is incredible. All of them extremely knowledgeable and friendly! You are met with welcoming smiles from the front office girls as you enter the office. They are so helpful and knowledgeable. It is with pleasure that I highly recommend Alameda Aesthetic Dentistry if you are looking for a top notch dentist office in the East Bay!”

“Excellent dentistry! They did my veneers and now my smile looks great. It's a real improvement that I appreciate everyday. They have state of the art equipment and are meticulous in their exams. I first came to them years ago because I had some tooth pain. At the time the dentist I was seeing said there was no problem. He did some imaging and didn't see anything that should cause pain. I decided to try a second opinion. I went to Transcendentist. They had vastly superior equipment and when they ran some diagnostic imaging, they found that I had a crack in my molar underneath an old filling. They were able to give me a crown, and it was a miracle. The tooth was saved and is never painful now. I decided to get my old metal fillings replaced and they did a beautiful job with that. The new fillings are not metal. They are healthier for me, and they are perfectly blended into the tooth, so they are completely invisible. That is a great improvement! I highly recommend Transendentist! They are highly skilled and the office is warm and friendly. Even the interior is appointed in a way to put you at ease. My entire family has switched to their practice. We are all in agreement that they are the best dentists we have ever been to.”

“Dr Bernstein fixed my smile! My front two teeth were broken in a pickleball accident. You can imagine it was devastating to break my teeth, and the path to replacement was long. When I finally reached the final cosmetic step, I wanted to be sure I would be happy with the results. I consulted with several dentists and chose Dr. Bernstein. I am very happy with my decision and the results of his dentistry. I now have one implant and 5 new veneers that all match and look natural. In addition to doing beautiful work, Dr. Bernstein has a calming demeanor and is very patient, ensuring I got the results I wanted. I highly recommend his work.”
