I had an amazing experience with Dr. Salehpour and his entire team. Going into my wisdom teeth removal, I had a lot of anxiety, especially about the IV sedation. Everyone from the front desk to the assistants and Dr. Salehpour himself was incredibly kind, patient, and reassuring. They took the time to explain everything and made me feel completely at ease.
As someone who works in healthcare, I know how important it is for patients to feel cared for, and this office truly exemplifies that. The level of compassion and professionalism I experienced is exactly the kind of care I strive to provide to my own patients.
It’s been a week since my surgery, I am healing great and could not be happier with my experience. I highly recommend Dr. Salehpour and his team!!

10/10 recommendation this office if you’re looking to get dental work done! I was really scared about getting my wisdom teeth taken out but I had a phenomenal experience, I was in and out quick and healed perfectly. Talking to my other friends who got their wisdom teeth taken out somewhere else, I definitely had the better experience and most successful healing process. The post-op instructions were very very thorough and everyone at the office was really kind and welcoming. Definitely come here! Best dentist office i’ve ever been to!

Who actually likes going to the dentist? Not me. Now, go a step further, who enjoys going to the oral surgeon, absolutely nobody. And you typically end up at one as the consequence of many poor decisions. Or at least, I did. Nonetheless, I'm not a fan of the whole dental world on the whole.
And then I met Dr Ali Salehpour...yes, Ali....like Prince Ali.
I was referred to him by my dentist for a very problematic tooth #3 that was declared "non-restorable", not a great adjective for a tooth. From the first point of contact with the front office (Stephanie), to the initial consult (where I met Mariah and Lucy) and then finally Dr Salehpour, I have to say that they put my very dental fearing mind at ease. Everything was explained clearly and professionally, which really helped lessen my anxiety. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure I was comfortable at every step. The procedure itself was quick and smooth, and I felt confident I was in great hands.
As a Registered Nurse, I have very high expectations of patient care, all of them were met and exceeded by Dr S and the staff. I highly recommend Dr. Salehpour to anyone in need of oral surgery. The skill, communication, and compassionate care provided by Dr. Ali Salehpour and his team made a potentially stressful experience surprisingly easy.

I had such a great experience getting my wisdom teeth removed here. I was honestly pretty nervous going in since I hadn’t been to the dentist in a long time, but the entire team made me feel completely at ease from start to finish.
A special shoutout to Alma—she was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the whole process. She really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and informed, which made a huge difference for me.
I had all four wisdom teeth removed, and the procedure was surprisingly smooth and comfortable. The team was professional, efficient, and made everything feel easy, which I didn’t expect at all given how anxious I was beforehand.
The overall vibe of the place is warm and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. I’m so glad I chose this office—highly recommend to anyone, especially if you’re feeling nervous or haven’t been to the dentist in a while!

I experienced a last-minute dental emergency and needed an oral surgeon quickly. Dr. Salehpour saw me right away, and I'm truly grateful for that. :)
From the moment I walked in, the office stood out as it is beautiful, very clean, and clearly well cared for. Their extraordinary modern equipment made me feel confident that I was receiving top-level care.
The staff was excellent, and I have to give a special thank you to Lucy. She walked me through everything with so much kindness and patience, and truly made a stressful situation feel manageable.
Dr. Salehpour was exceptional and extremely knowledgeable, professional, and skillful in his approach to my issues. I felt reassured and in very capable hands the entire time!
I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this office to anyone needing prompt, high-quality oral surgery.
