out of Read Reviews for Dr. Samuel Rayo
Very good, personable dentist. Explains everything well, will take as long as is necessary to do a thorough job, from cleanings to fillings. Does not rely on a hygienist to do the cleanings, which is great.
About Front Desk: Easy scheduling -- very friendly and helpful.

I saw Dr. Rayo every 6 months for about 20+ years for cleanings, cavities and crowns and thought he was a good dentist. The last time I went in for the 6 month cleaning, he probably would have said everything was okay, except I voiced concern about receeding gumlines and a front tooth slightly loose. Since he "had never taken a full mouth x-ray" of my mouth he did so and told me I might lose my teeth. He suggested just to continue flossing, brushing and mouthwash; invisaline and fastening the two front teeth from behind. He said I could still lose my teeth. Luckily I got a second opinion. At that appointment, the new dentist found that 2 cavities had started under old fillings (undetected by Mr. Rayo) and I was sent for peridontal treatment. I responded very well to the periodontal treatment - something Rayo did not even mention. The periodontist said that no matter how much you floss, brush and rinse, it would have never gotten close to the trouble spots. Those overlooked cavities turned into root canal & crown jobs, one of which the endodontic file broke off inside the tooth. This molar now has to be removed. I am really mad about this. Dr. Rayo has cost me thousands of dollars. DON'T GO TO RAYO

Relatively good dentist I would say. My wife and I went there for a tooth pain. We kinda knew what was causing the problem. He recommended us to have the wisdom teeth removed. He also recommended us to a particular surgeon, but we did not go there. After asking for it, he recommended to use Nitrogen Peroxide. Overall, I rate as average. He also took X-ray which he has in his office. He explained to us the X-ray. He charged only the minimum which my insurance company paid in full. (Usually, my insurance co. only pays 40% of what the doctors charge. In that sense, I would admit that he is really cheap.)
