I have always had problems with my teeth and had spent thousands on temporary solutions here in the US. I was quoted by my dentist 40k over three years to fix all my teeth which required removing all of them. I am only 50 years old! …
I have bought several waterpicks here. They have almost all models. Friendly staff! Not the cheapest but as far as I know the only one selling waterpick
Unfortunately I will be giving the office a one-star due to the last-minute cancellation of an emergency root canal that I had planned in advance. The office had reached out to me the day before asking me if they can move the appointment …

My wife and I both needed work done. In one afternoon Dr Nadine Cordero placed an implant for me and for my wife did an extraction, bone graft and 2 implants. The work done was professional and perfect. Due to the amount my wife had done …

I highly recommend Prisma Dental. I primarily worked with Dra. Carolina Nunez and she was impeccable with her skills to navigate what I needed in my mouth. They have their own lab and can make crowns on the same day for the same price. The …

I flew from Atlanta down to San Jose for serious dental work. My wife came last year for a full restoration, and we were very happy with both the price and the results. So we flew down again this year, and I had a total restoration as well. …

On behalf of all Prisma Team, se send you a BIG THANK YOU! To you and your wife.
Dr. Rubinstein and Dr. Cordero are irresponsible and do not care at all about the patient's well being, just money. They filed down and crowned 11 of my teeth when I was in my mid 20s. My teeth did not need crowns - 1 or 2 were just …
