My passion for helping others achieve lasting self confidence through a healthy smile has led me to become a trusted dentist in Encinitas, Carlsbad, and Del-​Mar. Assisting others in obtaining the smile of their dreams gives me immense personal satisfaction.

I have been practicing dentistry for more than 16 years after graduating in the top 2% of my graduating class as one of the youngest dentists in the history of the USC School of Dentistry!

Had a great experience for my deep cleaning. I’ve been to other offices recommending the same treatment and I’ve been charged an arm and a leg. I was referred by one of my doctor colleagues and we both don’t mind the drive from North Park to Escondido because Dr. Dena’s office is that great. There are other patient perks here too that you will soon discover at their office. As long as I live in San Diego, I will probably be a loyal patient to this office.

I have been going here for about 4 years now. Its about half of what I was paying elsewhere so the prices are good.
I have had 4 cavities fixed here and everything turned out good.
I refer people here all the time because I know Dr Dena will take care of them.
I hadn’t been to the dentist in 5 years because of how expensive and time consuming it was. Now I go every six months because its affordable and I know its worth it.

I just started going to Dr. Dena. I’ve had two appointments. I think he is attentive and very gentle. I am a happy client. He also kindly helped me with a chipped tooth that was cosmetically bothering me and didn’t even hesitate to do so. His office was very clean and his staff are courteous.

I received this feedback from my original review (below).
Why wasn’t the cleaning included with my special as you said has been offered the past several years? That’s insulting to try to clear your name after the fact.
I’ve been to a new dentist now 3 times and have spent less than $ 500 total. The estimate you quickly wrote on the back of a business card (rather than taking the time to print out for me) was close to $ 4,000. I have 2 more visits scheduled and will probably spend about $ 1,000 from an honest dentist.
From Farad Dena, DDS:
«We have read your comments and take them seriously. Dr. Dena and our staff take the utmost pride in providing excellent dental care, educating our patients and answering their questions prior to any treatment. One point we would like to clear up is that our new patient specials for the past several years has included the cleaning in addition to the exam and x-​rays.
Please feel free to contact us or come in and we would be happy to review your pictures and treatment plan with you. We would also provide these pictures for any 2nd opinion visits you may choose to make. We just want you to know that we are available to answer any questions that you may have.»

My whole family have been going to Dr Dena over 10 years. He is very gentle and his prices are very reasonable. He has a very clean and relaxing office with friendly staff.

We have been patients of Dr. Dena for over 10 years! My 2 teenagers actually look forward to their 6 month check ups. He is very professional and yet very easy going! I feel at ease in his care! From as early as 8 years old, I have been in and out of dentist offices till I found my jewel, Dr Dena! He has done well over 10 crowns for me including a bridge and every time I’m going to an appointment, I am excited because I know it will be done «RIGHT»!! As a matter of fact, I was just there yesterday for him to work on my bridge and I kid you not I fell asleep! It felt like I was at a spa! His assistant Brenda is very polite and attentive as well. I like to extend my gratitude to Dr. dena, Rita, Paula and Brenda for caring so much for their patients and their level of professionalism to their patients yet so friendly and caring!
Thank you!!!

Ps, I assure all the Unilocalers when I say this about Dr. Dena and this is coming from a lady who has been in and out of the dentist offices for the past
30 years. He is the nicest, kindest, caring individual and at the same time professional, honest and very gifted!!!
I found Dr. Dena about 10 years ago and my family has been coming to him since!
Non sense about these characters here writing outrageous lies about him. My son is almost 17 and my daughter is 14 and he has been their dentist for the past 10 years. They have no cavities!!! Why because we go to him on a regular check ups and they are better for it.
What kind of a person doesn’t see a dentist regularly and then blames the dentist for having cavities?
Sorry but I have to disagree! On the other hand I’m the one with horrible teeth and I have many crowns that he had done for me and redone from a bad dental job from previous dentists.
I respect my dentist, Dr. Dena for his hard work, ethic and talent!
He has made my teeth beautiful! I can open my big mouth and laugh as big as I want because I can!
Sorry for the longest review!!!

I cannot recommend Dr. Dena enough. I’ve had a bad run of luck with dentists who suggest far more work than my teeth need. I feel Dr. Dena is extremely honest. I had one cavity filled recently — I walked into the office and was out, filling complete, within 20 minutes. It was the easiest cavity I’ve ever had. The office is well-​run and efficient, as is Dr. Dena and his assistant. So bummed that I just recently moved and have to find a new dentist. I’m seriously thinking about coming back just to have him do my dental work.

We went to Dr. Dena and he told my 18 year old daughter that she had 8 cavities. His bedside manner was so bad that he had her in tears. I had him only fill 3 because that is all I could afford, then I took her to another dentist 6 months later who told us that her teeth were perfect and she had no problems. He also said my husband needed a filling but we got a second opinion and his teeth were fine as well.

La Jolla, CA
Before we found Dr. Dena, we were spending literally two to three times more for the same services in La Jolla, CA from three different dentists. Here is the best part… Dr. Dena is a MUCH better dentist than the ones we went to in La Jolla. He has the newest technology and his staff is always pleasant and very helpful. So we drive 20 min. each way to see a better dentist and save money. HIGHLY recommend Dr. Dena.

Great and friendly staff. He does some good work. They usually have new patient deals, which was the reason I started to come. If you or a family member or friend is looking for a wonderful dentist. This is the place! Especially if you don’t like going to the dentist, it’s a comfortable environment.

Came here to get my teeth cleaned and got a very professional & cordial service. Very high tech dentistry, I could see pictures of my teeth live as well as x-​rays. The price was less than I thought it would be as well. The doctor was friendly and very knowledgeable.
