The best dentist I have ever been to. Her examination was thorough and detailed, and she gave a great breakdown of my scans and areas of concern. When I came back for a filling, it was easily the smoothest experience with a filling I’ve ever had. Her application of local anaesthesia was almost painless, and the numbing was deep and hit all the right spots! Despite having a pretty deep cavity, I didn’t feel a single thing.
December 3, 2024Robin P.Verified patient
I've been looking for a new dentist and I'm very happy to find Dr. Mota. She communicates very well and did a great job with the tooth extraction. Through the entire process, Dr. Mota was very attentive and cared about my well-being. I also like the office vibe and friendly staff. Highly recommend it from someone who's had a lot of dental issue over the years.

The doctor and the front desk staff are friendly. The assistant who did the polish is rude and not professional. That women was trying to sell some product to me when she was doing polishing for me, ridiculous

Friendly staff Clear recommendations.
Doctor was very professional . What I like about the doctor was that she was very careful when she was working with on me. Because I told her I was kind of nervous about needles.

They were great with time management. When it was going to be a little bit of a wait they kept me in the loop and checked on me a few times.
June 28, 2023Hannah M.Verified patient
Great experience! I showed up almost 20 minutes late and the hygienist and Ankita were very accommodating. We sped through my X-rays and cleaning and even though I hadn’t been to a dentist in years, it was the least painful cleaning I can remember.

Excellent bedside manner. It had been a few years since my last dental appointment and Dr. Mota never made me feel judged for that. Friendly staff, good 3D imaging technology, massage chairs, and TVs made it a comfortable and productive visit. I will definitely be back!

The staff and the dentist all asked good questions, listened to my answers, and made me feel at ease. No one enjoys being at the dentist but they went out of their way to make it as comfortable as possible.
January 9, 2023Juliette D.Verified patient
Dr. Ankita is a well-experienced dentist I have ever met. It is always essential to examine and analyze your teeth through X-rays so they make sure if you have anything infected or not. She is very proactive and patient. I highly recommend her if anyone is willing to have their teeth cleaned or for other purposes.
December 19, 2022Glenn H.Verified patient
Amazing! She knows what she do, and she is so attentive and perfectionist.
I’ll be back for my whitening Friday, the best experience I had in a dentist and I used to live in Manhattan. 10/10.

I have been going to this dentist for two years, and Dr. Mota does amazing work! She always cleans my teeth personally, and has pointed out directly what is going on with my teeth on the X-Rays in an open discussion. She is fast and the hours are convenient for the busy Silicon Valley professional. I highly recommend Enso Dental.

My kids needed a regular checkup after covid and our dentist had retired. so we asked around and my friend gave me recommendation for Dr. Mota. I wanted to pass on that recommendation forward, because to be frank I didn't know dentist visit could be this relaxing.
My kids hated going to the dentist because they had to wait a long time, and they got bored, on top of it a doctor looking at their teeth is not a pleasant visual.
But Dr. Mota made them comfortable, talked to them, and helped them understand what she was doing. This increased their curiosity and she was so calm and answered all their questions. By the end of the procedure my kids were not at all bored, and actually wanted to come in for a follow-up.

Very professional and experienced. Dr. Mota and her assistant were so calm and confident while extracting my impacted wisdom tooth. She knows what she’s doing and explained everything step by step, before, during and after the procedure. Maggie was very accommodating and makes sure to find schedule that is convenient for me. Met Maggie once and shes very cheerful and gives good advice - like a mother would. I give 10 stars.?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

I went in due to a dental emergency and my regular dentist wasn't available. I found the clinic and went in as they had appointments available. I was so happy that I found them, the service was a night and day difference. Dr. Mota was kind and caring, she listened to my issue, and also asked about my eating habits, and medical history. She made sure to give me pointers on how to take care of my teeth. But most importantly, she didn't ask for any extra procedures to be done, or x-rays to be taken. She wanted to maximize my insurance, she just said we will save your teeth and worked to get me a bit of relief before doing a root-canal on a later date, when I had some time available, and I could get my x-rays from my other doctor.
I have found my new dentist in Dr. Mota, and Enso Dental

They take about 4-5 mins to take you in once you arrive. They also have a few forms for you to sign as you come, which probably can be done beforehand. But these are nitpicks, this is a really good dental clinic. I highly recommend Enso Dental
