Very good. Only downside for me is that dentist is out-of-network for my insurance; and hence more expensive than others. Overall, excellent facilities, very thorough check-up, and very professional staff.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 1 month.

Patient Review 4:
Dr. Lokhandwala and her staff are wonderful. From the moment you walk into the office you feel welcomed. I heard about Dr. Lokhandwala from a friend who had said she was great with children. They do a great job on our teeth and they are so patient with my children who are always scared when they go to the dentist. Dr. Lokhandwala also listens to the concerns of the patient and works with them. In my case, my husband wasn't all that thrilled about what dental work he needed done, so she came up with another course of action he agreed upon. The course of action they took has helped my husband so much!!! The people who assist are also wonderful. They try to make you feel comfortable in a uncomfortable situation. And they do a good job of that. And the front office staff is so awesome!!! They are always very friendly and helpful.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 3 years.

Patient Review 5:
I've had regular teeth cleanings/check-ups, x-rays, and small cosmetic procedures done by Dr. Lokhandwala. She also extracted one of my wisdom teeth. All my procedures have been greatly successful and relatively painless!She and her team of doctors are always calm, confident, and warm. They're consistently good about explaining procedures and the pros/cons of various treatments. I always feel like I have not only approved of, but know exactly what they're doing.The folks at the front desk are excellent about scheduling appointments, following up with reminders, and making adjustments to fit our schedule. My wife and I had Dr. Lokhandwala as our dentist when we lived in the Bay Area. We now live in Sacramento and still commute to Fremont for her services. Understanding and a reasonable level of flexibility is key for us.I've never had to deal with insurance issues. Once I provided Dr. Lokhandwala's staff my provider's information, I've never had any problems with billing, charges, etc. Their administrative process is straight-forward and really quite effortless.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: about 5 years.

Patient Review 6:
While playin Squash with my husband ,he accidently knocked his racquet on my teeth and thats how ended up havin a chipped tooth.I was searchin for a good dentist online and came across Dr. Munira .There were great reviews about her and her staff,thats when I decided to choose Dr. Munira Lokhandwala,to do what was needed for me.X-Ray was taken to study my case,closely.Dr.Munira,explained to me with all calmness and in a very friendly manner,as to what was wrong.Was not sure if the nerve was damaged,though.Suitable suggestions were made by her and decided on what was apt for me at that moment.Local anesthesia was induced, and she started workin on replacement tooth/Composite.It took about an hour or so to fix my tooth and she had done a perfect job.I walked in,embarrassed and walked out with a big broad smile on my face.She even called up,personally,to make sure if i was doin fine,the next day.Now,if my tooth hurts or discolours over a period of 1-2 weeks time,then I'm asked to get back .It means,my nerve is damaged and I need to be treated again.Hopin for the best and I'm very confident that I'm in the right hands.Lastly,it wouldnt be wrong if I called her an angel-so gentle and sweet in every way.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: days.

Patient Review 7:
I am embarrassed to say that i have not been to a dentist in over 10 years because of the extreme fear i have had of going to the dentist. Unfortunately i had some real bad experiences in the past and swore i would never go back to a dentist again. (wishful thinking) i broke my tooth the other day and had to find a dentist right away that i could trust and would feel comfortable with and did excellent dental work on your teeth. I found dr. Lokhandwala on the internet after searching for almost a week for a dentist who was highly recommened and had outstanding reviews by patients and found the most wonderful, kind, gentle & caring dentist i have ever been to. (did i mention gentle) i never thought i would say i am no longer afraid of going to the dentist, and after todays appt. Having a crown put on, all my fears are gone. I even have an appt. Set up next week for a filling and i actually look forward to going instead of dreading it. The dr. Is so thorough about explaining each procedure she is going to do next and constantly making sure your are comfortable and not in any pain. She is such a personable and kind hearted person and it really shows how much she cares about her patients.
About Hygienist: The entire staff at starbrite dental is so kind and amy at the front desk is so sweet and very helpful. I don't have dental ins. And really appreciate the dentist allowing me to make monthly payments. Thank you again dr. Lokhandwala for being such a wonderful dentist. The crown looks absolutely beautiful(looks like my own tooth) one very happy patient !!!!!!! Sharene

I recommend Dr. Munira to all my friends and co-workers. She always explains the rpocedure she is doing and tells you what to expect. I think the costs are very reasonable and always tells you upfront what it will cost yoru insureance as well as out of pocket expenses. She does not try to sell your services that you do not need and will let yiu know if the treatemnt can wait rather that do it when it is not necessary. She is great with my kids and they enjoy coming to her. I highly recommend her. Her staff is alwys friendly and work with my time for appointments!

Patient Review 9:
Dr. Lokhandwala and her entire staff were the most professional and caring group of people that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They handled my concerns with the upmost respect and the work completed on my daughters teeth was exceptional. My daughter had two Maryland bridges placed and the entire experience and procedure was painless and efficient. They helped with the billing and worked with me to get the financial aspects resolved. As far as the front desk - "Amy" (office manager) did an exceptional job of helping me. Dr. Lokhandwala also was very patient and gave us different alternatives to treatment. Also I was very impressed and grateful as she always explained what was going to happen - her chair side manners are wonderful. If you need a dentist with these exceptional characteristics and staff - please go see Dr. Lokhandwala !
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 5 months.

Me and my family have been coming to Dr. Lokhandwala's office for the last 8 years and i have never been happier with any other dentist. She has very gentle hands and always makes sure you understand what she is doing for you. She is so great with my daughter that she looks foward to her dental visits. I trust her and her staff so much that I have referred all my friends and family to her.

Dr. Lokhandwala did my dental implant crowns. She did a great job. The crowns fit so good, it's like they are my own natural teeth. And the prices are pretty resonable, so I recommend her to anyone who needs dental implant work.Susan

I was having having difficulty finding a dentist when I moved in here from Michigan. After research and a few trials, I finally landed in Dr munira's office. I had quite a few problems which she has handled very well and somehow I feel she has the excellent skill to do the procedures rahter painlessly which was always my big worry. She makes you feel very comfortable - explains in details and help you understand and makes the overall experience very pleasant.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 2 and half years.

I have never met such nice caring Doctors as Dr. Lokhandwala and Dr. Hosseini. They are both so gentle while working on your teeth and very attentive to your needs. While they work, they make sure the whole prcedure is virtually painless and as comfortable as they can possibly make it. Not only are the Doctors wonderful, the rest of the staff is just as great. The Dental Assistants as well as the front desk are very knowledgable and always happy to help you when you need it. I would definately recommend StarBrite Dental to anyone who needs a dentist!

Dr. Lokhandwala and her team at StarBrite Dental do a fabulous job. They have done the impossible - make visits to the dentist something my children and I actually look forward to. To provide a patient with a positive experience is good work. To do so time after time, for years, is phenomenal. These folks are phenomenal.

Dr. Munira is the best dentist I have ever known. The moment you enter the office you feel like you are at home not in the doctor's office. Her staff is super nice and really pays attention to you. But most importantly, Dr. Munira does magic in your mouth. She is very gentle and making sure you are comfortable throughout the entire stay in her office. And she does follow up!!! And you get excited to see her again and again. Will recommend her anytime!

Patient Review 18:
The best thing about the doctor is that her hands are steady and gentle while working on my teeth. I can sleep while she is working on my teeth with my mouth open :-)) My very first visit, which I can never forget, was an emergency. I had my wisdom tooth crowning at the age of 35 and I had no dental insurance. She willingly accepted me as a patient, gave me good treatment by removing the tooth. Her humanity shines because she understood my financial situation and charged me very reasonably. I am now a working mom with dental insurance and she is our family dentist, that I am proud of. Last but not the least, Dr. Munira and her staff are great with kids. Both my kids were a little afraid before their first visit but after their first treatment they have begun to trust her as much as I do.
About Hygienist: I have dealt with new and experienced hygienist and they have all been wonderful. Never had a problem with any of them.
Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 5.

Patient Review 19:
Dr Munira and her staff are great!! I go for regular cleaning, had crowns, tooth extraction, bone grafting, and most recently two implants done. I was dreading implant at first but Dr Munira walked me through the whole procedure, answering all my questions and explaining the various treatment choices and options available, allowing me to make informed decision without any pressure. The whole procedure took about few hours and was not painful at all; just felt slight discomfort having to keeping my mouth open for few hours. The post-surgery recovery was fast, virtually painless, only a minor discomfort for a few days I highly recommend Dr Lokhandwala and StarBrite Dental to eveyone.
About Hygienist: The hygienists were caring and competent. Wonderful staff to help you with appointments and billing questions. Alka and Amy at the front desk are wonderful.

You won't be disappointed.

Patient Review 21:
I have been looking for a solution to my canker sores and I am extremely happy to say that Starbrite dental is the best thing that has ever happened to me.I have had canker sores since I was young enough to remember and I have never found a good treatment to rid of the pain or shorten the healing time. I have done a lot of research on the web and by luck I found out about Dr Lokhandwala. I called to see if I can get an appointment on the same day (Sat) and to my surprise the assistant was extremely helpful in facilitating me for a walk-in.Dr. Lokhandwala was not available due to some seminar so I was attended by another dentist who was extremely gentle and very corteous. She presented me with 2 options to treat my canker sores and asked a brief history about them. Since I had about 6 canker sores, some were too close to my throat they did not want to touch but I had a large one on my tongue and several smaller ones around my inner lip and gum. The tongue and gum were treated chemically and THEY WENT AWAY the following day!!! The other 2 were laser and they did not improve so I know what to request the next time I get them. I also received a follow-up call on the effectiveness. I WILL RECOMMEND EVERYONE!
