Palo Alto Dental Group

It's the best dental clinic on earth! They have the kindest doctors and they make a supposed to be "painful" experience very comforting!

Years ago... Dr Keller was so kind to let me make an emergency visit on the New Year Eve.. I was very grateful to have my fallen crown fixed on the same day... I actually called enormous number of dental clinics in that area and got rejected before finding this clinic... I was so lucky and I miss him...

I still clearly remember all the details of that dental visit with Dr. Keller... Especially the Beethoven music and the comforting words from the doctor and nurse and staff there...

Palo Alto Dental Group is extremely friendly, professional, and efficient. I actually enjoy my visits there and my interactions with the staff. My prior dental office was one where I liked my dentist but dreaded interacting with the office. Because of this I avoiding visiting and neglected my dental health. My wife recommended Palo Alto Dental Group this recommendation has resulted in a great improvement in overall health. PADG got me back on track, and were great in handling scheduling and insurance. Everyone who I deal with is pleasant and the care and advice is exceptional. The approach is conversational and interactive. I feel engaged in the process and am more proactive in my care. The location is convenient and parking is always available.

Very fortunate to be referred here as my first time. Was able to be seen quickly for an emergency and was not rushed during appointment. Excellent compassionate care team.
Excellent staff. Went above & beyond by making a specialist appointment on my behalf. DDS (DR. KONO) even took care of an additional tooth that was causing distress and I felt “heard” and that I was in good hands. Thank you!

I have been visited Palo Alto Dental Group for the past 10+ years. It's a world class facility equipped with state of art dental devices. Everyone is so nice from front desk clerks to hygienist (Gina) to my dental doctor (Dr. Kono). The service is excellent. I am lucky to find such a wonderful customer focused dental office. Thank you indeed!

Palo Alto Dental has been taking care of our teeth for over 30 years, with 3 dentists (2 of them have retired). Everyone -- the front desk, hygienists, dentists -- is friendly and professional. My current dentist, Dr. Kono, is outstanding: a skilled craftsman, gentle, gives a running commentary on his work, and is happy to answer all questions.

This office is the best! I’ve been coming here for ober 20 years. The front staff are always pleasant and easy to talk to. Dr. Kono is awesome and I highly recommend him. He is always patient 😊 and explains every step of the way.

I had a wonderful experience with Ruth @ Palo Alto Dental Group. She is very professional, caring, friendly and a wonderful person. She makes me feel comfortable and safe every time I go for my six months dental cleaning. Thank you for being you!

Maria, the hygienist, was so gentle and very professional. She explained what she was doing during the procedure which was very helpful. Doctor Bahl was very efficient in checking the condition of my teeth and was very kind during our conversation. Also, the receptionists were very patient.

If you’re looking for a dentist, this is the place to go.

The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and timely. I went to see Dr. Kono, was brought in right at the time of my appointment, and was out within an hour. The work they did was diligent and painless.

I would recommend them to anyone who is considering a new dental clinic.

Dr. Kono is the best! I’ve been seeing him for many years and he’s taken such good care of my teeth. Most of all, he is very gentle and does great work. My teen daughter also sees him. I would recommend him for anyone, young and old!

No one "likes" to get a crown, but Dr. Kono and his team made the necessary procedure comfortable. I've been a patient for some 20 years and have always had great experiences with this practice.

X-ray staff was very nice and polite. She explained every step that’s done. Dr Thomas Kono was skillful and thorough. He patiently answered all questions I had. Lucy at the desk was polite and cheerful. I had a very nice visit there. (January, 2023)

In all these years, I have never had a dentist explain to me why I have these reoccurring problems with my teeth. Dr. Peter Kono spent time evaluating my teeth and making recommendations with the reasoning behind his recommendations.
The BEST.

Wonderful appointment with Dr Kono! He did the cleaning and was very detailed and made sure he spent a lot of time as it was my first visit there. I would highly recommend him.

I love my dentist, Dr. Peter Kono, my hygienist Ruth, and the prompt, pleasant, and reliable service from everyone at Palo Alto Dental Group. Been going there for decades and recommend them without reservation.

Love this practice and all staff. Clean, beautiful office where they practice impeccable safety protocols without removing warmth. Just had my cleaning and Gina was thorough and gentle at the same time. Dr. Kono is a great dentist. He is empathetic , friendly and as gentle as can be these past 25+ years. He will go out of his way to complete all procedures on the day of appointment and do a wonderful job. He always follows through to see how you’re doing after the procedure. Thank you Dr. Kono and entire staff for being so wonderful.

I’ve been coming to this practice for over 25 years. Staff is pleasant and professional. Appreciate the appointment reminders and prompt responses. Dr. Kono does awesome work.

I've been with PA Dental for years, as have several of my family. It is an extremely well organized, friendly, and competent outfit. Never a wait. They interact well with my Delta Dental insurance. A few days ago, two days before Thanksgiving, I had an unusual pain in my jaw above one tooth. I went in without appointment, and they took care of me. They called back the next day to check in on me. I have been with the same hygienist for years. She is careful and thorough. Very little turnover of employees, and as far as I can tell, dentists stay for years as well. I know mine have.

Patricia was still on medical leave. I hope she recovers soon. Tran did my dental prophylaxis, and she was great. As usual, Dr. Vanzina was great too. I had no problems during my visit. I have to brace myself for the cost because I don't have dental insurance, but I'm compensated for that, knowing my experience has been that work done Palo Alto Dental Group has been well done, so there are not problems later.

I have been with PA Dental Group for almost 60 years, first with Dr Iverson Sr. then with his son, Dr Iverson Jr. who just retired this December. That should say something. I have never had an issue, or a complaint with the quality of care or warmth of their staff. They have seen me through a few dental challenges,
and I really appreciate the long-standing high-quality level of care I've received.
