READ MOREI walked into Luminous Smiles because they were advertising a Grand Opening $99. Teeth whitening special. Dr Desai and her staff are friendly and welcoming. Since it'd been three months since I'd had my teeth cleaned she recommended I get them cleaned prior to the procedure for better results. I'm glad I did. Dr Desai assured me she'd give a great cleaning as she had been a dental hygienist for 7 years, deciding to become a dentist and working her way through school. Her cleaning was excellent. I'm glad she pointed out I'm brushing too hard. Dr Desai showed me how to more effectively brush to avoid further gum loss and she showed me on my arm how I'll periodically feel my teeth have a 10 second reaction to the whitening procedure. Glad she did as the few times I've felt it I was prepared. My teeth look great! READ LESS

READ MOREI came in to Luminous Smiles beacause a friend of mine had referred me and kept bugging me to get into the dentist( mostly because I have had bad experiences) I am so glad I came in. Let's start with the office. It's beautiful! And is up to date with all the cool technology for dentistry. And the staff is great! Manny was so helpful in the front office and Jennifer her assistant is sweet and gental. And Dr.Desai well she is amazing!!! She used an infra oral camara and got some pics of my teeth, and we talked about what the game plan is going to be for the work I need done. For my weekend away and for a little added sparkle to my smile I had a gem added to my canine tooth, and I absolutely love it!!!! READ LESS

READ MOREI've had quite a few bad experiences with dentists in the past, ranging from shoddy work to superfluous diagnoses, so when I moved into the area, I wasn't necessarily jumping at the chance to start the process over. After seeing the incredible bridgework Dr. Desai did on a friend of mine, and hearing her rave over the experience, I decided to give Luminous Smiles a go. In addition to her straightforward and informative approach to the issues I personally had, Dr. Desai was also fantastic with my children. After a rough experience at another local office, they both left their appointments smiling and happy. The office is sleek and inviting and they were happy to work with me on my schedule and took the time to walk me through my insurance premiums. Dr. Desai genuinely loves her craft and it shows on all levels. READ LESS

Dr Desai is exactly what I and I'm sure who every one else is looking for, AN EXCEPTIONAL DENTIST. From the moment you meet Dr Desai you feel at ease. Her office shows how detailed she is before you even go through your thorough exam. She explains everything and shows you what she's talking about. Her staff is just as impressive as the doctor. Great dentist and great team. I needed some dental work and I can actually say I was looking forward to returning, when she gave the anesthetic I didn't even feel the "shot". I highly recommend this dental office you won't regret your choice. READ LESS

For someone who doesn't like visiting the dentist, she made me feel really comfortable. I felt like my previous dentist was always trying to get me to pay for procedures I didn't need. But Dr. Desai, didn't make me feel that way at all. She is honest and her passion shines through in her work. Her new office, is a plus too! She seems to be equipped with all of the latest technology....no more old school dentist for me! READ LESS

READ MOREDr. Desai is all you could ever ask for in a dentist: friendly, gentle, and detail-oriented. I’ve been to countless terrible dentists and I’ve always had issues with my teeth and smile. I have full confidence that Dr. Desai is going to work her magic to give me the smile I’ve always dreamed of. I’ll also mention that she was AMAZING with my two year old, who had never been to a dentist before. Her friendly staff went the extra mile to make sure his first dentist experience was special, and it was. If you’re looking for a family dentist you can trust, choose Luminous Smiles. READ LESS

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Desaj for a couple of years now. My son, then 4, hated going to the Dentist until he start seeing Dr. Desai. She has the best bedside manner, she always informs my son of her next steps which makes it easier for him. Plus he gets to watch his favorite show on the tv while getting his teeth cleaned.

Prior to coming to see her, I embarrassing hadn't been to the dentist is years. Last year, I had to have her replace a partial porcelain filling. I had to receive multiple shots but Dr. Desai was so gentle that all I could feel was a little pinch.

I respect her, trust her and know she is giving us and providing us the best dental care.

Plus her office is beyond cute and her staff is knowledgeable and kind. READ LESS

READ MOREI have never liked dentists, I get anxiety thinking about it and it's even worse when I actually have to go in and see one. Because of this, I've been extremely picky when it comes to choosing a dentist. Before signing up for my dental insurance, I looked around for the best dentist in Newport Beach and then looked at their websites, social media pages, and most importantly, their credentials. The only dentist that I found in a 50 mile radius that had amazing reviews, a modern office and graduated from a prestigious school was DR. Desai. Upon walking into the office, I was immediately impressed with the decore, you could tell that a lot of time and energy was spent to give the place the vibe it does. I immediately felt st home. The check in process was a breeze (they use an iPad for this and paperwork). When I was called back I was immediately greeted by Dr Desai. She was warm and welcoming which is a feeling I've never had from a Dentist. I was seated and talked to like a human being. She wanted to know about me before my teeth. Once we were done the assistant took my X-rays and did a fantastic job being gently. He took his time, was energetic, and you could tell he truly loved his job and where he worked. Upon the x rays being completed Dr Desai and I discussed next steps. The only feedback I have is to make sure you have a lot of time the first appointment. I had set aside two 1/2 hours and was still in a rush to get out of there. The treatment plan was rushed through because I had a doctor appointment I needed to go through. I also don't love that they want you to sign off on a treatment plan before you can take time to absorb it and ask to changes to the plan on timeline etc. then again this part was rushed so maybe it's done differently had I had more time. I look forward to coming back and having Dr Desai perform work to get my teeth to where I want them to be. READ LESS

From the phone contact to the office environment, everything is designed to consider the patient. I don't know anyone who LIKES going to the dentist, but Dr. Desai makes the process as good as possible. She takes infinite care throughout, from the initial examination to the execution of the work. She is the first dentist that has developed a long-range plan and who took the time to explain how some things, like the movement of teeth over time, can impact the thinning of the enamel. She is also really good at making the process as pain-free as possible, between watching Netflix movies during procedures and the excellent administration of local anesthetic. READ LESS

I’ve already been extremely impressed with the office staff and Dr. Desai in how friendly, knowledgeable and caring they are. The office is beautiful, and it’s always such a pleasant experience when I visit. Veneers are an investment, and it’s nice to be in the hands of someone who knows what they’re doing, cares as much as she does, and wants to make you happy. I’ve only had 2 appointments with her thus far, but would highly recommend her! You won’t be disappointed! READ LESS

When I first walked in, it felt as if I had stepped into a spa but instead of getting my nails done I was about to get my teeth done! From checking in with Manny the receptionist to having x-rays completed by Jennifer the hygienist to having an through exam with deep cleaning with Dr. Desai, everything was absolutely perfect.

The environment is calming and relaxing. Not something you would expect at the dentist office. There was a moment I dosed off as I waited for my mouth to become numb from the anesthesia. In my previous visits to a dentist office I would have been sitting there tense and clutching onto the chair.

Dr. Desai is thoughtful in her process, she explains everything clearly, she is gentle and diligent during the procedure and you can sense her passion for dentistry.

Worth the drive and every penny. I have found my new permanent dentist!!!! READ LESS
