I recently had an appointment with Dr. Aggarwal, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She is incredibly kind and thorough in her approach, ensuring that every step of the process is explained and all of my questions are answered. Her staff is equally outstanding. Patty at the front desk makes you feel like the most important client of the day. The dental assistant is amazing, not only assisting the doctor but also ensuring my comfort throughout the entire process.

One of the highlights of my visit was how gentle Dr. Aggarwal was when administering the shot—I could barely feel it! Her expertise and gentle touch transformed what is typically an uncomfortable experience into one that was very easy to manage.

I highly recommend Dr. Aggarwal and her staff to anyone looking for a professional and compassionate dentist. Thank you, Dr. Aggarwal, for the excellent care!

Zen Smiles Dentistry has been great. We were really nervous about changing from our old dentist, as we had been seeing him for over a decade. But Dr. Aggarwal made the transition as smooth as possible. She made us feel comfortable right away with her warm personality, she clearly explained our treatment plans, and she did a great job executing the work. As a result, we feel that we’re in great hands with Zen Smiles Dentistry and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new dentist in the area

I am a patient of Zen Smiles Dentistry. I was looking for a new dentist as my previous dentist no longer accepted Delta Dental. I had my hygienist Amy and Dr. Anandika Aggarwal for my first appointment and both are pleasant and professional. I had a gap where my molar was previously removed when it cracked. She gave me three options to consider. There was no pressure. I also had to get fillings for the next appointment and she offered me options on whether to get anesthesia or not so I said not. It didn’t hurt so I avoided a shot. She was careful and thorough, so I am very happy with my experience. Dr. Aggarwal is polite, thoughtful and caring as well. Thanks to her and her staff, I am less afraid of dentist visits.

In 2019, I had a emergency molar extraction that was started by another dentist. During that visit my tooth was broken off by the previous dentist. I searched and no dentist could see me. I was happy I found Dr. Anderson. I called their office and spoke to their assistant Patti. She was able to get me in the very next day.

During that visit, Dr. Anderson was able to get the rest of the tooth out and the roots, he made sure I was comfortable during the procedure. He followed up with me after the procedure.

During my post operative appointment, I was able to address some ongoing concerns I had regarding my TMJ and other failing dental work. I had extreme TMJ for over 20 years that had caused me pain and severe migraines.

I wasn’t surprised that Dr. Anderson is one of the top maxillofacial specialists in the country!

He was able to put together a treatment plan to alleviate and correct the TMJ. Not every dentist is able to do the procedure. He was able to do something called a K7 treatment on me. This was to determine where my “bite” should be.

His treatment plan was reasonable, and he was able to work with my finances. After the K7 treatment, he had me wear an orthotic nightguard that opened my bite to alleviate the pain and discomfort. From there he worked with a local dental lab to make a mixture of crowns and veneers to “open my bite”

Fast forward to 2021, my smile is beautiful, and I have no pain. I continue to see Dr. Anderson every 6 months for my cleanings. Not only is his staff amazing, but his bedside manner is great also. When you are in the dental chair, I know he is focused on my teeth and overall health.

He was also able to offer sedation during these procedures, which was very helpful. He made me feel comfortable and I have an amazing outcome. I recommend him to everyone!

I had many options to choose from with my insurance, I researched all of my options and decided to go see Dr. Sean Anderson. When I called for the appointment the friendly receptionist answered my questions and easily made an appointment for cleaning and exam. The small office is located in an older part of San Ramon, easy to find. Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed and almost immediately taken back. My cleaning was awesome, Jenn was gentle and really friendly. Meeting Dr. Anderson was so nice, he’s a very friendly guy and took great care during the exam. I went back the following week for minor cosmetics, he was awesome. I recently lost a crown and went back for the replacement. It all went smoothly and Dr. Anderson was so gentle (especially with the shots). I recommend him to locals who need a great dentist.

I had an emergency molar extraction that was started by another dentist and it didn’t go well. Dr. Anderson and his staff got me an appointment the next day. The molar had been broken and I had a very bad extraction. Dr. Anderson was able to get the rest of the tooth out and the roots, he made sure I was comfortable during the procedure. He followed up with me after the procedure. I have other dental work failing currently and I plan on using his expertise to restore my smile and correct the painful TMJ that I have been living with my entire life. I will continue to update this process and add photos along the way. I highly recommend him.

Doctors in the U.S. and Canada hire my firm to learn how to treat patients better and become more successful. So I know the ins and outs of how most doctors practice and operate. The other day my daughter chipped her front tooth. I was referred to Dr. Sean Anderson by a childhood friend and successful Realtor Taso Tsakos. What I like about Dr. Anderson and his office is that it’s no-nonsense , down-to-earth, yet professional, More importantly, he does excellent work. He spent a lot of time with my daughter and as a result, her chipped tooth now looks perfect. I plan on having some work done on my teeth very soon. You will like Dr. Anderson

I chose Dr. Sean Anderson to cosmetically enhance my smile with porcelain veneers. As a plastic surgeon, I understand the skill and artistry necessary to achieve a natural yet esthetically pleasing result. Dr. Anderson and his team did a tremendous job managing my case from initial consultation to final placement of the veneers. There was no pain, the procedure was done quickly and efficiently and the entire team has impressive chairside rapport. All this leads to an exceptional esthetic result. I recommend Dr. Anderson uninhibitedly for any cosmetic dental treatment you’re considering.

I’ve been in the entertainment business for over ten years and have always been insecure about my smile. I had several consultations with top dentists but left the office feeling rushed or worst, like a number. When I had my consultation with Dr. Anderson and his team, I was BLOWN AWAY by their genuine attitude and commitment to giving me an exceptional smile that I would be proud of. My career has taught me first hand about phoniness and I can’t stress enough how comfortable they made me feel. I was able to get excited about the procedure instead of worrying about it. My smile has created additional confidence that makes me feel better about myself and everything I do. Best investment I’ve ever made. Not only can I say Dr. Anderson is a great cosmetic dentist but he and his lovely wife Lisa have also become great friends. I want to personally thank Dr. Anderson for helping to make my dreams come true; watch out Hollywood, here I come.

I started having neck and facial pain as well as increased tooth wear and sensitivity as a result of clenching and grinding my teeth at night. My husband told me he would wake to my clicking and teeth grinding at night which I soon learned was called bruxism; often a symptom of TMJ. Due to the excessive ware on my teeth, serious dental issues were also arising. Seeking relief from TMJ and after researching credentials, I sought treatment from Dr. Sean Anderson. During my initial exam, we discussed my symptoms and how my bite had closed over the years resulting in my bruxism and deterioration of my teeth. Dr. Anderson used Neuromuscular techniques to find the precise jaw position for me and performed the dental restorations necessary to ensure we had the correct position for my jaw to rest comfortably. I really did not understand the full significance of what was happening but the results were incredible.

The facial pain, bruxism and other symptoms I had lived with for the past few years disappeared. And I have a lovely, bright smile as a benefit. Dr. Anderson and his team are very professional and provide caring attentive service. They did a great job of informing me about the procedures, addressing my concerns regarding discomfort, and explaining what I could expect. I totally recommend Dr. Anderson and his team, particularly to those who are suffering from neuromuscular dental issues like TMJ.

I was unhappy with my existing smile and decided to get several consultations with the top cosmetic dentist in the area. After doing my due diligence, I sought Dr. Sean Anderson to perform the necessary dental procedures to enhance my smile. Dr. Anderson and his entire team were impressive with their knowledge, skill and commitment. Most importantly was their genuine concern and incredible chairside manner. They helped me get over my apprehension of dental procedures and become excited about the new smile that I had been dreaming of. The end result was phenomenal and my experience was very pleasant; I had no pain during or after the procedure. I want to thank Dr. Anderson and recommend him and his team to anyone considering cosmetic dental work.

Dr. Sean Anderson is an incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate dental specialist who has made the difference between a pain-free life and a pain-filled life for me. After 20 years of trying every solution for jaw pain (including adult orthodontia and lower jaw surgery), I came to Dr. Anderson three years ago with a left jaw socket that would pop out of joint when I opened my mouth wide enough to eat and, insultingly enough, to laugh! I would have to manually hold my lower jaw and ease it back into the joint. Dr. Anderson’s neuromuscular approach gave me new hope that I wouldn’t have to live the rest of my life like this. Through electronic stimulation and relaxation of the facial muscles, we were able to get my jaw in a normal, functioning (and, more importantly, pain-free) position within a matter of weeks. Then, after a few months of working together to ensure my bite was settled into the most optimum position, we proceeded with the complete restoration. My jaw now works beautifully, I am not in pain, my teeth are sparkling white and I constantly receive compliments on my smile! All thanks go to Dr. Anderson and his supportive and caring staff!

Dr. Anderson, It has been almost a year since you performed my complete dental reconstruction. Not only is my smile still beautiful, but I have noticed a number of unanticipated benefits to my health and well being. For many years I suffered with debilitating migraine headaches…sometimes as often as on a weekly basis. I missed work, vacations, and important family events due to the incapacitating pain. There were times when the warning lights associated with migraines would send me into despair… just anticipating the one to three days of intense pain and isolation that was to follow. As the years progressed and the trail of specialists grew longer, new medications provided some relief. Always, though, the migraines were like closet monsters… waiting for any lapse in vigilance to pounce. Then, I turned 50. I didn’t like the aged look of my teeth and realized I had been only half smiling for a number of years. My regular dentist advised me that I would have to wear braces for a couple of years prior to getting veneers. Somehow, that just didn’t seem like something I wanted to do, so I placed the whole idea on the back burner. I never lost my fascination with beautiful smiles and the thought that just maybe there was something doable… after all, people with much worse bites than mine were getting remade left and right on television. They weren’t spending two years in braces! Then a miracle, in the form of your wife, Lisa, showed up in my life…. or rather at the baby shower of a mutual friend. Lisa’s smile was dazzling. We struck up a conversation when I commented on her smile. She filled me in on the type of dentistry you had studied through LVI. I was in your office the following week for a consultation. Ultimately, you performed the reconstruction. Never did I think that all of this could lead to relief from my migraines. I never had any jaw pain or any other clue that my bite was contributing to the awful condition. The upshot of the tale is that I have not had one migraine since my procedure. Between my enhanced smile and freedom from pain, you have given me a new and optimistic outlook on life. My sincerest thanks to you Dr. Anderson! Sincerely, Leslie

I went to Dr. Anderson with several problems including TMJ, tetracycline lines and stains, and minor alignment problems. Dr. Anderson thoroughly went through all the potential treatment options with all the pros and cons of each treatment and gave me significant time to evaluate all the options. After selecting a treatment, Dr. Anderson’s team worked very hard to schedule around my hectic business and travel schedule. A difficult treatment was performed nearly flawlessly, went smoothly and every step was explained so I had no surprises. Dr. Anderson and his team have excellent attention to detail and friendly yet professional attitudes that made me comfortable throughout the entire process. I am pleased with the results and the positive comments from friends, family and colleagues.

I originally came to see Dr. Anderson with crooked yellowish teeth and a large overbite. Thanks to Dr. Anderson, I now have beautiful straight white teeth, absolutely no overbite, and am no longer self-conscious about my smile. Dr. Anderson, his friendly staff and skilled associates made the entire process easy, educational and, for me, about as pain-free as one could hope for. I found Dr. Anderson to be extremely passionate, skilled and knowledgeable and would recommend him to any of my family members or closest friends. I am starting a new chapter in my life in San Diego and now can start it with a huge, bright white smile on my face.
