Gentle Dental has the nicest team around. Everyone is very welcoming and each step of the process was so easy (even when I forgot to do my intake forms ahead of time). Highly recommend if you want a trustworthy and friendly dental team!

Overall, my experience at Gentle Dental was good. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The dentist was good also but not as friendly as the support staff. My one disappointment was how often they wanted to upsale me. One person wanted to give me a filling on a wisdom tooth!? They do good work but it cost!!

My mom and I went to Gentle Dental as first-time patients, and everybody there was so welcoming and friendly, and they did such an amazing job on our teeth! I also got a consultation from the orthodontist, and they were very accommodating with whatever concerns I had regarding my braces! Overall, the experience was perfect and the customer service was excellent for our first time being there!

All the staff at Gentle Dental are amazing! I have experienced feeling vulnerable at a dentist and at their mercy in the past (not gentle dental). This deeply impacted me and made me distrusting of dentistry. But I must say that Gentle Dental redeemed my trust in dentistry! All of them are so personable and I’ve had a really great experience

I suffer from dental anxiety, so it takes a lot for me to get to the dentist, let alone sit in the chair and hear horrible things about my dental health lol!
Everyone at the Los Alamos office was absolutely amazing and made me feel very comfortable in knowing I would be taken care of once I sat in their chair! From check in to check out, I had a great experience with this office, and that says a lot for someone that may share the same anxiety!
Nicole and Haley in reception are super sweet and easy to talk to. They helped guide me through the new patient process and were smiling and laughing the whole time. Once the check in process was completed I was greeted by Olivia who helped me with Xrays. She was extremely friendly and talked me through the process of getting Xrays completed.
With nerves and anxiety still set in, I was then put in the dentist chair. I didnt wait long until Dr. Cowan came to introduce himself and discuss what we were looking at. What I appreciated was the realness about the procedure I was going to need and what to expect. He was super quick with the procedure and barely felt any pain, knowing how extensive my visit was going to be. He was thorough and helped answer any questions my husband and I had.
Working with Varonica and Louann made going through some extractions/deep cleaning that much more comfortable. They were easy to talk to and helped with adding some laughs to help the nerves be more at ease. Robert at the front desk was also amazing and was readily available for any questions. He was very thorough when it came to discussing my benefits and what next steps would be needed for my dental care.
Overall, I have had many experiences with dental offices and can say this staff has been great!
For someone who shares my dental anxiety, I can honestly say Gentle Dental off of Los Alamos has an amazing group of people who makes you feel right at home and knowing your dental health is as important to them!
My big smile is back and beautiful as ever. Thank you, Gentle Dental!
Highly highly recommend Gentle Dental!

I had a great experience at Gentle Dental Murrieta. Dr.Cowan was very attentive and addressed all of my questions and concerns. He also provided me with a lot of resources to keep up with my dental maintenance. Will definitely be back!

Best Dental Office in Town! 🦷✨

Dr. Cowan and his team are a game-changer! He’s straightforward and direct, which I actually love—it means no surprises and total transparency. His honesty and skill are unmatched, and his work is always flawless. I trust him completely with my dental care.

Varonica, the hygienist, is hands down the best I’ve ever had. Not only is she incredibly thorough, but she takes the time to explain everything and educate you on how to keep your smile healthy for the long run.

The entire staff feels like family—warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Plus, with their great pricing and flexible financial options, it’s an easy choice for top-notch care. If you’re looking for a dentist you can trust, Dr. Cowan is the one to see!
