Dr. Julio R Espinoza

Not recommended. This dentist is a poor communicator. In my case he filled a small cavity with a silver filling and told me about it after it was filled as he was doing other dental work in the area. I would not have chosen a silver filling had I been made aware of the cavity. He also said a lower wisdom tooth needed to be extracted without asking me for my input (it was not a necessity but I was told it had to come out). After the extraction I was told it was optional. I was not told anything about discomfort or difficulties in removing lower wisdom teeth—-both of which were significant. The extraction did not go well and small bone fragments were still coming out months later. He also replaced two crowns with old style metal crowns and then ground them down to the point of the metal almost showing through. Not recommended at all. The two stars is because the staff there are very good.
