I was visiting San Francisco and had a dental emergency and i checked a few reviews and liked what people said about Dr, Lokhandwala. I am very bad about going to dentists and they were so helpful and genuinely caring that I almost look forward to going again, which I shall. Impressive attention to detail and their rates were quite reasonable. Highly recommended.

About Hygienist: She made me feel much less awkward than I probably was. Thank you for being so present and charming.

It was truly a blessing to find Dr. Munira Lokhandwala. From the time I broke out a tooth as a child, the dentist has been a fearful place for me to go. Dr. Lokhandwala was able to ease my fear with patients and nitrous so that I could get through the work she did. We are 2 months into a front implant and I am very happy with the way things have progressed so far. Dr Lokhandwala has a great chair side manner that makes her wonderful to work with.

Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 1 1/2 years.

I like Dr. Lokhandwala because she is thorough and explains in detail my dental needs. Also I like all her high tech equipment for descerning what I need in the way of dental work and/or care. She is also concerned about a patients pain threshold and controlling pain as much as is possible. She assesses what needs to be done and develops a short and long range plan. So based on my experience as a patient, I would highly recommend Dr. Lokhandwala and her staff for dental services. They are all very good and very professional in the way they treat patients.

Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 1 Year.

Dr. Lokhandwala is the complete professional - she knows exactly what she is doing and has the state of the art equipment and top level staff to back her up. I've seen dental providers around the world and the Bay Area - she really does deserve high marks. I went in at 2pm for a dental implant and was driving home pain free by 2:45. Her communication and attention to detail makes the experience all the more better. I highly recommend anyone looking for superb dental implant work to visit her practice. - Gabe J.

My mother needed a crown and Dr. Lokhandwala and her staff were able to accomodate to our immediate need and busy schedule by treating the crown procedure all in one day (no more than two hours at the most for the whole procedure which went very well). The cost was reasonable. Dr. Lokhandwala and her staff were friendly, caring, honest, and professional. Dr. Lokhandwala and Dr. Hosseini are both technically proficient and skillful. I strongly recommend anyone to be a new patient to Dr. Lokhandwala!

Patient Review 7:

I am very pleased with Dr. Lokhandwala's practice, and work. I began taking care of my dental hygiene after many years of neglect - after a root canal, a crown, and some cavity fillings within 2 years, I am cavity free and have excellent dental health. Both Dr. Lokhandwala and Dr. Hosseini are gentle and listen to their patients needs. I've been fortunate to experience both their work. I have trouble breathing through my nose, sometimes mouth due to bronchitis and don't handle the water very well, but this is not a problem at StarBrite dental as they take time to make sure I am comfortable. I have and will continue to recommend this practice to friends, family, and co-workers.

Sincerely,

David C.

About Hygienist: I have also been very pleased with all the hygienists and the front desk staff who are always courteous, explain in detail whatever you need to know about your procedure and insurance coverage.

I found Starbrite Dental through the internet and thought the website was very informative and professional. I made an appointment for a consultation and was very impressed with Dr. Munira's thoroughness with the examination and her caring and compassion. She put me at ease with her gentleness. Drs. Munira and Hosseine have both worked on me to provide me with full dentures and now mini implants in the lower denture. Through out this procedure, since September, I have not felt any pain during or after. Going to Starbrite Dental is a pleasant experience and I highly recommend Starbrite Dental. Thank you Dr. Munira, Dr. Hosseine and the Starbrite Dental staff.

Dr. Munira Lokhandwala

Wow! I know this is not how most patients would describe their Dentist but I can tell you how delighted I am with Dr. Munira Lokhandwala

dentistry skills. I was looking for a Dentist to do corrective work that was done by another dentist and I was blessed to have found Dr. Munira Lokhandwala, via the internet in Fremont. Dr. Munira Lokhandwala, has excellent contemporary dentistry skills with pain reduction techniques. I needed an implant for one (1) of my teeth and I could not believe how painless this procedure was. I left Dr. Munira Lokhandwala office and drove myself back to Antioch without any discomfort.

Dr. Munira Lokhandwala, office environment and staff is pleasant and professional. Dr. Munira Lokhandwala, prices are reasonable. I have recommended Dr. Munira Lokhandwala to my daughter Raquel and I would recommend her to anyone that needs quality contemporary dentistry.

From a scale of 1 to 10, I absolutely give her a 12!

Patient Review 10:

I was looking for a new dentist in Fremont after a bad experience with another dentist who had glowing reviews on Yelp. With Dr. Munira I did not find any reviews on Yelp but I did find a lot of great reviews on other sites and though she looks very young from the picture I decided to try her. The first time I went to her, she took my x-rays and came up with a treatment plan and patiently explained to me why a certain treatment was required. She spoke to me about my budget and how much I could afford to spend this year and priorotized treatment accordingly. This was something that impressed me the most cause she respected my financial situation and was willing to work with me. She told me upfront that I needed a crown and a few re-fillings and what the cost would be. In just 1 month, she did my crown and 5 other teeth. Dr. Munira is very skilled, dedicated and quick with an experience of 17+ years (Dont let her looks fool you).She did a great job with my teeth and my bite was perfect everytime. She and her staff are very friendly and appointments are easy to get. Good dentists are difficult to find and I almost did not want to share her. But reviews have helped me before and I hope this will help someone else discover Dr. Munira.

Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 2 months.

Little to no discomfort during any of my visits. I give them the insurance info and they take care of everything. Everyone there is very polite and friendly. What I believe sets them apart is their appreciation of your business and it makes me feel like I made the right choice everytime I go there.

About Hygienist: The hygenist was just as friendly and courteous as the rest of the staff. My teeth feel great and I will go there as long as I have teeth!

Dr. Lokhandwala initially impressed me with her gentle touch, effective use of the latest technology, and sincere desire to get the job done right. The office staff is very friendly and works directly with my insurance provider so that I don't have to think about it. Prior to replacing some old amalgam fillings, they were able to tell me exactly how much the procedures would cost. Over the past year or two, my routine cleaning has been handled by Dr. Hosseini, who always makes an extra effort to ensure that the process is as painless as possible. I really appreciate that since my teeth are fairly sensitive. Despite having moved to Livermore over a year ago, I continue to trust my dental care to Dr. Lokhandwala and her staff.

Patient Review 17:

Dr. Munira is a wonderful person, very professional and caring doctor. We visited Dr. Munira and her staff last week for our 6 year old son's dental work. He had some cavities and he has a bad gag reflux so he needed to be sedated for the dental work. We were worried about the sedation part but Dr. Munira made us feel very comfortable about the whole procedure. She walked us through the whole procedure step by step. My son was afraid of dentist visits but after the last visit he talks about how nice the doctor is and not afraid of the dental visits any more.

Many thanks to Dr. Munira and her friendly staff for the wonderful service.

Treatment Length with Dr. Lokhandwala: 2 weeks.

I visited StarBrite Dental without too many expectations, having already not so good experience with other dental businesses. I was surprised from the door!

Dr. Munira, thank you for your hard work, dedication, high professionalism, and thank you for literary spoiling me with your care. I look forward to continue working with you, and I will recommend your office as often the opportunity will arise.

I am always very anxious and nervous about going to the dentist, but the doctors and staff at StarBrite are absolutely wonderful! I was in serious need of a dentist when I found out about them on the internet and I am so glad I did! I've had quite a few procedures done (extractions, root canals, and some crowns), all the work has been satisfactory. I referred a friend, and my boyfriend, and they were both taken care of, as well. My daughter will be seeing the doctor in November for her first dental appointment ever and I'm sure it will be a good experience. I would definitely recommend StarBrite to everyone!

Hes staff is very friendly and works hard to accommodate appointments that fit your schedule, including Saturdays. I highly recommend Dr. Lokhandwala and Star Brite Dental for all your dental needs.
