Dr. Sal was so patient and kind with both of my parents who had not seen a dentist for more than 10 years. Her calm, warm, and professional demeanor really convinced my parents of the need to care for their teeth better going forward.

Dr. Erickson is a highly skilled professional in the field of dentistry. He is knowledgeable and explores the boundaries with his patients in arriving at a solution that is practical and effective for your needs. His personality invites confidence and his his presence assures comfort. He has an unforced sense of humor that is engaging. He is my dentist and I trust him in every aspect of my dental care.

Dr. MacKenzie is super knowledgeable and gentle. I’m in the process of getting a root canal done and haven’t had the best experience elsewhere. So happy now I’m good hands.

Dr Erickson is innovative, uses the latest technology and realizes that many of us have a innate fear of needles and the Dentist in general. He and his assistants always make you feel in great hands and comfortable.....

Dr. Salehinia is the best dentist Ive ever had. She is always very thorough and does a great job of showing and explaining what needs to be done and why. I never feel like Im being talked into something. The work is, of course, consistently excellent. Ive had a number of procedures done, everything from simple fillings to a couple of crowns, and everything had worked out very well. And I really appreciate the accurate and transparent pricing and cost estimates before doing the work.

Been going to Dr. Erickson for years, and his father before him. The office has done such a great job during Covid with their safety procedures. A friendly and professional atmosphere, with a doctor and staff who care about their patients.

Dr. Erickson is a great dentist. He cares about his patience and is highly skilled. I am glad I started going to him after my dentist of 40 years retired two years ago. I have recommended a number of friends to him and his practice and everyone who has gone to him agrees with my thoughts on Dr. Erickson.

I and my family have been using the services at CDD for over 30 years. From routine cleaning and dental services to emergency tooth repair. The staff is friendly and very professional. As I write this I realize Ive become accustomed to their great service and have been taking them for granted. To any new potential customer you cant go wrong by selecting Creative Dimensions on Dentistry for all your dental needs. To CDD doctors and staff THANK YOU for all you do.

Dr. Erickson is the best. Hes very caring and compassionate, and he doesnt do work on you unless absolutely necessary. I went from needing a cavity filled and new crown to just getting the cavity filled because he was able to do it without removing the crown. Saved me over $1,000. Great dentist and great office.

Awesome dentist. I havent been to the dentist in decades and was extremely apprehensive to go but when I met Dr. C. I was greatly surprised and appreciative of his style and manner. His work on my root canal was phenomenal. I expected a lot of pain and there was none. He was quick, efficient, and extremely gentle. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a great dentist.

Dr. McKenzie is an excellent dentist. His skill, up-to-date techniques, equipment, and calm manner allowed me to give up taking valium for dental appts! The staff apparently love working there because they are cheerful, friendly and stay a long time. Their procedures when they reopened during Covid 19 were very reassuring. I highly recommend Dr. McKenzie and his staff.

Dr Chhina has been my dentist for about 15 years. I find him to be caring, attentive and professional. Their office staff is very helpful with appointments and billing. I have had to use their emergency services in the past and found the dentists to be very helpful in handling any dental problems that arose over the weekend or holiday. I would highly recommend their dental services.

I went in for a check-up and cleaning and honestly, I can’t wait to go back. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. I’ve been to a few other places and always felt judged for things I was doing or not doing. I was telling my friends and family about how pleasant of a place this was to be at as soon as I was I was done.

My daughter and I have been with Dr. Chhina for about 2 years now. He and his team have amazing bedside manner that meet the needs of the extremely the fidgety and traumatized patient (such as myself haha). Knowledgeable and very efficient during procedures. He walks me through each procedure and there are never any surprises! My teeth have been brought back to proper health thanks to Dr. Chhina and team! ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!

My family has been seeing Dr. Chinna for a few years now. He is awesome with all of us but I especially appreciate his patience and the care he takes with my youngest son. I also appreciate the time Dr. Chinna takes to explain what hes doing at each step. CDD staff is also great! Highly recommend Dr. Chinna and CDD!

It was very encouraging and heartfelt to see Kristen, a young white lady, manfest such loving support and confidence building while training the young African American dental assistant. This should serve both of them well as they maneuver thru live. This very act will help to eliminate racial prejudice which is the most challenge issues we face.

We could not be happier with the care we have received with Dr. Salehinia and her team. Myself, my husband, and my three children have seen her for the past 15 years for all our dental needs. Dr. Sal and her team and exceptionally professional but have a small town feel to their friendliness, remembering little details about their patients and putting their comfort first. I had some VERY bad dental experiences in the past, leading to some very bad work which all needed to be redone. I was never made to feel shame or guilt from these issues, and the dental work is as close to painless as you can imagine. My favorite thing about Dr. Sal is her artistic attention to detail. She is a stickler for getting things just right and its clear she takes great pleasure in a beautiful smile.I have seen a few others in this practice during dental emergencies and I have had only positive experiences with the few others on the team I have met. I strongly recommend Dr. Salehinia and the team at CCD.

It is always a pleasure to go to the dentist! Yes, thats right, the DENTIST! While I have been to a number of dental professionals in my life, none of my previous experiences compare to actually looking forward to visiting Dr. Erickson and the team at Creative Dimensions in Dentistry.They do everything possible to ensure your comfort and success when undergoing dental work. Their consistent positive encouragement has allowed me to develop better oral hygiene practices which will ensure my smile, and my teeth are well cared for both now and in the future.I have encouraged a number of my friends and co-workers to visit Dr. Erickson and Creative Dimensions in Dentistry so they too can benefit from the attentive care and services they provide to all of their patients.My hope, if you are reading this review, is you too will consider Dr. Erickson and Creative Dimensions in Dentistry. You will be able to see, first-hand, their professionalism and service, as they partner with you on achieving the best oral hygiene and smile possible.

I have had the good fortune of having Dr. Erickson as my dentist for many years. He fully understands my apprehension of going to the dentist, therefore, he takes the time to explain my condition thoroughly with me as well as my treatment options. By doing this, he makes me feel at ease with any treatment that I am having on that day. The staff is very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Dr. Erickson.

Dr Saah is friendly and committed to ensuring a safe and workable outcome, as well as being resourceful in exploring options. This is very important to me, as I have a history of complicated health issues and competing health concerns. He and the staff are very helpful, and I always feel like Im getting the best possible care. My long term dental health is at stake, and I am always in good hands.

I absolutely love this dental practice. From the first interaction, I felt like I was important and well-cared for. The entire staff is professional and very friendly. Every procedure was explained fully and my comfort was always a priority to them. My hygienist, Pam, was meticulous and thorough, and I appreciated that. Dr. Erickson is also very thorough is genuinely friendly. I highly recommend this office, and their affiliate orthodontics office as well.

Review №66

Dr. Erickson is an amazing and caring dentist, whose use of modern technology took the edge off of going to the dentist. I had an emergency that my “then” dentist was not able to help me with. I called our family orthodontist, who sent me to Dr. Erickson. By mid morning my tooth had a crown and I was off to pack for a business trip. Our entire family, including my 87 year old mother, are now patients of Dr. Ericksons and his wonderful, friendly and caring staff!

CDD is awesome! Hadnt gone to the dentist in about 7 years and was very nervous about seeing a dentist /oral hygienist. When I went in everyone was very nice and welcoming. I ended up having Chandra as my oral hygienist and she was amazing and I wont let anyone else touch my teeth now! Overall I would suggest CDD to anyone and everyone!

For nearly two decades there is only one dentist that I trust to care for my dental health, Shirin Salehinia is a truely exceptional densist and person, Her skills have restored my teeth which were riddled with cavaties and cracks. She is far mare than just a dentist doing fillings and crowns. She is litteraly an artist when it comes to providing dental restorations. You will be just as convinced as I am if you make her your dentist.

In addition to Dr. Erickson being so awesome, I can’t leave out Melissa!!! She was my first point of contact and the main reason I confirmed my first appointment and have continued to come back!!! She is extremely kind and truly goes out of her way for patients!!! All the staff is wonderful but Melissa has been my go to for everything! Knowledgeable, friendly, etc.!!! Thank you CDD for being such an amazing Dentistry! It was hard once my childhood dentist retired but thankfully, I found CDD right away!!! In addition, they have 2 offices!!! One in Castro Valley and the other in San Leandro!!! Both are extremely clean, easy to find and close to my home which makes all my appointments very convenient to get to! I refer everyone I know (family and friends) to CDD! 🦷👍😊 💯

Dar. Sal. is a caring and competent professional. She combines the medical technique of her work is a package filled with kindness which was very pleasing for me who is also a health care provider. I strongly believe that we cant impress our patients with our knowledge, if we never show how much we care about their best interest in an economy who is more driven by making more money than the pure and indepth service for the people who put their trust in our hands. Dr. Sal is a beautiful example of a dedicated professional who can also show her tender care for her patients. I am grateful that my friend Dr. Maass referred Dr. Sal to me and his kindness for my best interest. I am also grateful that I have met Dr. Sal whose professional work made my heart smile. Thank you Dr. Sal and I look forward to my follow up visit eventhough I have never been looking forward to my dental visit.
