Dr. Desai and his team were amazing! I had to have two wisdom teeth extracted and was very nervous. They gave me options and explained everything and I had minimal discomfort. I was really surprised and extremely pleased with my visit. I have already recommended them to a coworker and I definitely plan to use them again!

Definitely found our new dental home. I had such a pleasant experience. HCS coordinator Stacy worked with our program manager and was able to take care of everything so my sister could get care.

November 12, 2025Judy R.Verified patient
They made me feel incredibly comfortable, which was especially important given my dental anxiety from past negative experiences with judgmental dentists. The staff offered clear payment plan options and provided rough estimates for my upcoming procedures. I appreciated that they presented multiple approaches to address my dental needs, allowing me to feel a sense of autonomy and reassurance throughout the process. They also provided printed treatment plans outlining both the current procedure and future appointments, demonstrating their commitment to helping me manage my dental health journey with support and flexibility. I will 100% be recommending this office to anyone who needs a referral!

Paid for them to tell me I need a deep cleaning and wisdom removal. I didn't even get a basic cleaning from them during my visit, which is unheard of.

Vivian is excellent. Dr. Desai has very good hands. My dental procedure was very smooth – I didn’t feel a thing! I was very nervous – he made sure I was comfortable at all times.

First let me say thank you to Dr. Desai and Q for having PATIENCE. My 16 yr old had all 4 wisdom teeth removed and let me tell you, her meds kicked her anxiety into HIGH GEAR. They were so kind and patient. I really appreciate the professionalism. Thank you La Cantera Dental!
RPVerified patient
Dr. Desai and Q at La Cantera Dental were amazing. They made me feel cared for and took the time to explain things to me and made me feel comfortable. Wisdom tooth extraction was a breeze with them. Highly reccomend.
ASVerified patient
Doctor was nice, but over booked and rushed. Only had one hygienist. I was there for my semi-annual cleaning and it took 1.5 hours. I will not waste my time again. While I was waiting in the reclining chair, I turned around to see the computer. They had something pulled up showing their schedule and their daily quota to make money... the nerve.

This was an excellent experience for my autistic son. She spoke to him like an adult, which he greatly appreciated. The doctor was friendly, quick & had wonderful bedside manner. I would give 10 stars if I could.
LWVerified patient
From beginning to end everything flowed so smoothly. The general anesthesia coordinator Stacy took care of everything for my family. They even offered flexible in-house financing!
ASVerified patient
Very friendly and professional staff. I was anxious about not recieving dental care in a while, and they were very understanding and encouraging. The lobby was very calming to sit in. Great communication from the office before my appointment too confirming the appointment. My appointment was done efficiently and I was never left waiting too long or without answers. They provide a full treatment plan/outlook for you. 10/10 experience, I will be booking again!!
Savannah B.Verified patient

Big Shoutout to Dr. Melendez, she's incredibly kind. Patient, and really takes the time to explain everything. Definitely reccomend them if you're looking for a dentist you can actually feel good about going to!
SMVerified patient
Had a root canal with Dr. Melendez and odescity and it was a really great experience. Usually going to the dentist is a very nervous thing to me but they made it so much better.
MQVerified patient
I called and asked for specific service. It was moved to a different date because they needed the time. One I arrived to my appt, they only x ray and that is it. They made me drive out from work just for x rays
