I've been seeing Dr. Zarkesh for 3 years for gum grafting. I had a lot of recession to both my upper and lower teeth due to over brushing and biting down too hard. I've had four different surgeries done by Dr. Zarkesh and each one got easier and less painful. Her staff are also there to help you and are super friendly and responsive. Before I had my first procedure, she explained to me all the options I would have and we discussed the finances. Knowing my insurance would only cover so much, we spread it out accordingly. The first time I did decide to use my own tissue, and while it was painful (she had to remove it from my roof), she explained the procedure ahead of time and how to care for myself afterwards to reduce infection (which never happened). The other three procedures I did use a donor graft and took the antibiotics, and had no problems! I would recommend the latter as you're guaranteed the amount needed is what you receive, it's less painful and you can eat much quicker! Amazingly, when you get the numbing shots and the surgeries, it doesn't hurt! Dr. Zarkesh has a steady hand and a great technique that puts you at ease during the procedure. She checks in with you during the procedure and even after you leave her.

About Front Desk: Maria is the best! She is very friendly, kind and helpful. She remembers your name and offers to follow up with your primary dentist if needed. She's always been nice to me and offers whatever help she can!
