I hd my niece in town for the week and she had a pretty deep cavity, I made an appointment the same day and upon arrival we were seen immediately. Dr. Saxena was able to ask questions, do the x-rays and then fill the cavity in less than 2 hours and the completed work was so well done that it looked like she never even had a cavity. Amazing work and very friendly staff, would recommend if you live in the San Jose area!

Finding the right dentist to trust with my daughter's broken front tooth was a very difficult after she broke them due to an accident. We were so lucky to find Dr. Saxena who is a very proficient & kind dentist. Her expertise was matched only by her compassion, as she skillfully & flawlessly fixed her teeth. We know that we have found our dentist for life!

Dr. Saxena is very reassuring and talks you through the whole procedure each time. She is clearly an
expert in dentistry. I received treatment for root canal, fillings, crown and whitening, and honestly I cannot praise her work ethic and attention to detail enough. She made me very comfortable
throughout.
