Right in the middle of the pandemic I developed an abscess and needed emergency treatment. My usual dentist wasn't open but it was a happy accident that I discovered this office. The treatment was as gentle and kind as can be =) A few weeks later, I tripped, fell and broke my front two teeth while eating the sidewalk =( They were able to see me within 3 hours of impact. I was in terrible pain and they seemed to really care about my wellbeing both physically and emotionally. There was extra effort on their part to ensure that the crowns looked as natural as possible. I really appreciated that.. having jacked up front teeth can make you feel so ugly. But my smile bears no trace of the accident. The office staff are super helpful, friendly and Leo deserves a raise just for being so patient with me! I also offer up the highest praise Tony the awesomely diligent dental assistant and the attention to detail from Dr.Jain. I feel that I am in very good hands. Thank you everyone at Gentle Dental @ Laguna Woods!! x

Lost a cap while traveling. I called and was able to get an appointment the morning after I got home. Knew I would need an extraction and a bridge. We were going to be leaving in less than a month on a cruise which I told Dr Mosin. That morning they deep cleaned half my mouth, removed a crown behind the lost tooth and removed some decay on that tooth then prepped the tooth in front of the lost one for the bridge. Seems like a lot and I was there 3 hours but I felt nothing, had no swelling and amazingly no pain from the extraction. They were thorough and showed compassion for my problem and situation. Very happy with this gentle dental office on El Toro Rd in Laguna Woods, CA

My mother has dementia and periodontitis. Dr. Mahmood has both the knowledge and demeanor to care for her properly. He is gentle and friendly and helps her feel at ease, which is more than half the battle when it comes to a patient going through cognitive decline. I would recommend him for sure.

I have been a long time patient of this clinic located in Laguna Woods, CA. There are no words to describe the quality, professionalism and friendliness of the doctors and staff. All dental work done by doctor Mahmood has been of such quality that other dentists have commented about the quality of my crowns and specially my implants!! The dental assistants, the laboratory they do business with and office staff are equally caring and oriented to excellence in their relationship with the patient. Please do not hesitate to visit the clinic and doctor Mahmood! Ana Cannon Laguna Woods

I came to Gentle Dental and the staff treated me like family and helped me get what I needed taken care of. Everything was explained to me, and the work was great. They made sure that I was comfortable and not in pain. I can tell you that I will not be going back to my old dentist. GENTLE DENTAL IS MY NEW DENTIST

I hadn't been to the dentist in about 5 years. Knowing that a cleaning was well overdue, I scheduled an initial appointment. Fortunately my good dental hygiene saved my teeth from cavities or any other serious issues, but a deep cleaning was needed. Zora, the hygienist, took care of me better than I could have ever expected. She was considerate about my previous bad experiences at other dentist offices and spoke to me during the process so I would know what was going on during the 1st cleaning. My 2nd cleaning is tomorrow and for the first time I'm not terrified of going back to the dentist. The front office staff was especially welcoming and kind, and Dr. Mohsin was timely and very informative. From the x-ray to the cleaning I'd recommend this office 100%.

This has been the best dental visit I have experienced. The entire staff, office and dental, was very pleasant, courteous and caring. Their attention to detail, caring demeanor and the way they explain everything in detail made what is normally an uncomfortable experience, very calm. Highly recommend them.

I had the BEST experience ever. I am a new patient and was scheduled for a deep cleaning. I felt a little uneasy about it, as I know some deep cleanings can be a little uncomfortable. Zora took my fears away immediately by explaining in detail exactly what she was going to be doing and and how. She was extremely gentle and so caring. If you ever need to have a deep cleaning, I highly recommend Zora at Gentle Dental. She is the BEST OF THE BEST...I am scheduled in a couple of weeks for another deep cleaning on the other side of my mouth and I must say, I am looking forward to that appointment. 😄 THANK YOU ZORA FOR YOUR SWEET SPIRIT AND MAKING THIS VISIT A GREAT ONE...🤣
