I hope that Riverside Smiles Dentistry and Dr. Akkari are in business for a long time, because I dont want to go anywhere else. I had an amazing experience today at Riverside Smiles Dentistry. I have a lot of anxiety when going to the dentist. Ive been to Riverside Smiles Dentistry a few times now, and Dr. Akkari and his team are very good at helping me to feel comfortable and reduce my fears. On a previous visit, he was able to save one of my teeth from having to have a root canal, which I was very thankful for. Dr. Akkari knows how much I dread the shots when dental work has to be done (When he gave me shots before I didnt even feel the needle - I only fear the shots because Im very sensitive to medication). In my checkup today, Dr. Akkari found a small cavity. He said that it was small enough that, if I wanted to, we could try to drill it without the shot, and if I felt any discomfort at all to tell him and he would administer the shot. He was able to drill and fill the cavity with no shot at all. He constantly checked my comfort during the procedure. I experienced no pain or discomfort whatsoever. It was amazing! It was the most pleasant dental experience Ive ever had. Dr. Akkari is very skilled and gentle, and when he is treating you he always makes sure you are comfortable with everything that is happening. He is truly gifted and blessed with a talent for dentistry and for patient care. I feel that I can trust Dr. Akkaris judgement, and I have confidence in his abilities. Being able to trust the doctor makes a huge difference to someone like me who has such fears of dental procedures. The staff at Riverside Smiles Dentistry is always wonderful. They are very caring and patient. They always make sure that you understand all the procedures and options, and they are very warm and friendly. It is apparent that everyone who works at Riverside Smiles Dentistry genuinely cares about others. Im very thankful for them!

Over the years I have NOT taken the best care of my teeth. I have old and yellow crowns with metal showing through them. I have chipped teeth; I have gaps between my front teeth. My co-worker/friend has the best smile; I compliment her smile all the time. One day I mentioned to her that I was thinking about doing something about my own teeth and I was looking for a good dentist in Riverside. She confessed that her smile wasnt always perfect and referred me to Dr Akkari!! That really gave me hope. The venture began by visiting the dental office in Riverside thats called: Riverside smiles dentistry; a very nice office that is modern, clean, and warm. The staff is very friendly and comforting. The doctor is great, he explained the procedure very well and answered all my questions. He has a portfolio of before and after photos on an IPad!; I was blown away with difference of before and after photos. I realized that this doctor has done many cases like mine and the results were impressive; That put me more at ease and got me sold. I started the process and it only took 3 weeks, now I have a brand new smile. I honestly cannot stop smiling (and staring at my own teeth), I love my new teeth, I feel confident again, I love the shower of compliments. I wish Id done it sooner. Thank you so very much Dr Akkari, you seriously gave me a reason to smile. I wish there were 10 star rating on Google to give you. Thanks again.

I had three teeth in the front that were capped due to a car accident years ago. They looked fake with metal stains on the gums. I wanted caps without the metal. After consulting 3 different dentists in Riverside, I decided to go with Dr. Akkari due to their great customer service, their "before & after" portfolio, and the friendliest doctor and staff, not to mention their super reasonable fees. My new all porcelain caps look so natural, no one can tell that they are capped. My gums got some laser treatment. I am super happy and pleased from A to Z with Riverside smiles dentistry, the doctor and the staff are super caring and accommodating. I already referred 3 family members and they all had positive things to say about them. If you looking for a dentist in Riverside, I definitely recommend Dr Akkari and his staff you will be taken care of without breaking the bank.

I believe most of us can relate to being nervous when its that time of the year, dental visit. I could remember how anxiety would kick in & it wouldnt leave my side for days until I met Dr. Fadi Akkari and everything changed. Before meeting Dr.Akkari I was insecure when it came to my smile. I refused to smile and show my teeth. But not anymore! I got a complete smile make over that consisted of veneers and bridges. Its been one of the best decisions & affordable investments of my life. Now I have the perfect smile that will last a lifetime. All I can say is, Thank you Dr.Akkari for giving me such a beautiful gift, my Self Confidence :) Im truly obsessed with my new smile.

My teeth are pretty bad, so usually when i go to the dentist they are very rude about pointing that out which makes me avoid going. I was in so much pain that i couldnt wait any longer! Dr. Akkari and his staff were so friendly and professional they did everything they could to help me! My wisdom tooth was out in less then 5 minutes and i didnt feel a thing. No one made me feel bad about my teeth, just reassured me that we could start fixing them! Since then ive reffered anyone i know who need work done for a reasonable price and planning on going back! I dont ever want to go to any other dentist.

Oh My Goodness are these guys awesome!!! Not only were they able to get me in the next day for pain on one of my tooth but performed the procedure like a breeze... Dr. AKKARI is absolutely amazing very friendly and actually took the time to explain his concerns and best options, unlike my previous dentist who just sounded like a used car dealership. A huge Thank You to Dr. Akkari, Jaxmine, Angel, Rita everyone you guys are a life saver... I will definitely be going back for some general and cos.wtic work...
