Reviews for La Jolla, CA Cosmetic Dentist Dr. James Salazar

Dr. Salazar is the nicest guy! The staff is ultra professional, really friendly, always on time and quick. 6 stars! More

Thank you to Dr. Salazar and his team for the great care that I have recently received. I received a new guard to be used during sleeping time at night. And My first night using it went really smooth. I like this new guard, made of a different material than the previous one. The change is noticeable. I feel that my teeth have now the right support with Team Dr. -Salazar and Dougherty. Merci mille fois! More

Great team led by Doctors Dougherty and Salazar! Approach is conservative to preserve natural teeth and promote health and act based on proven medical data. Highly recommend, Ashley, as a dental hygienist. More

Why do dental emergencies always happen on weekends or right before trips? Well, both happened to me when I lost a crown this weekend, and am leaving on the first flight out tomorrow. (It was done by another dentist.) Dr. Salazar squeezed me in at the last minute this morning. Crown was damaged, but they worked a fix that will get me through my trip. In and out in 20 minutes.

This was the best dental experience I have had to date. I needed a procedure done quickly (cracked tooth) and they not only brought me in quickly for a consult before the holidays but completed the job that same day. I loved the whole staff and special shout out to Dr Salazar who is my hero. He was professional and created an atmosphere of calm in my nervous self. Before I knew it I was fixed up and ready to go looking better than when I walked in the office. And completely PAIN FREE! Thank you! 10/10 recommend! More

If you're looking for a thorough doctor with great bedside manner and state of the art technology, search no more. Dr Salazar and his team are amazing!! More

Dr. Salazar was highly recommended and the overall experience was beyond my expectations. I appreciated Dr. Salazar’s honest, direct approach and appropriate seriousness for my complex situation. His expertise was evident as he created a clear plan toward my necessary dental restoration. I felt valued and respected; with confidence in his advanced knowledge and experience. I’m addition, the office staff was very welcoming and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Salazar if you’re seeking high quality dental care. And many thanks to Carolyn at Keiffer’s Orthodontics for the great referral! More

Dr. Salazar always does excellent work. Highly recommend. More

Plain and simple, a cut above the rest. Dr Salazar and his whole team are professional and on point. More

I'm a rather demanding individual with very high standards, but I can state that everyone in this office is FIRST RATE....from the receptionists to the dental technicians to Doctor Dougherty (Doctor Salazar is probably excellent too, but I haven't used his services, so I can't say). I've been to many dentists/prosthodontists in the past, and Dr. Dougherty is the best! More

Dougherty Dental is the Absolute Best! I came to them with my extreme anxiousness from years of 'dentist anxiety' and a personal inability to tolerate numbing agents. My first visit was simply a conversation with Dr. Salazar. His genuine care and concern, as well as the entire staff, was overwhelmingly appreciated. He and I came up with an action plan that will actually Work! Dougherty Dental works with an anesthesiologist who will help with my dental process. My heart and mind feel so much better knowing this action plan will give my teeth the necessary attention they need. I will never scream in pain from a dental office chair, again. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for your practice's dedication and caring approach to help fix my very difficult situation. I give 1,000 Stars to Dougherty Dental! More

I saw Dr. Salazar at Dr. Dougherty's practice, and he was so great! Helping me through some bad dental work from another dentist, and he has been nothing but kind, empathetic, practical, and encouraging. Great dentist! More
