When I first moved to San Mateo in 2019, I did a bit of research and stumbled upon Bloom and it's been nothing but great since then!
I recently moved ~25 minutes away but I still go to Bloom for my dental needs. Naturally, I could find a new dentist closer to me but I have no desire to. It's definitely worth the time and drive.
Colette is the very best and puts everything at ease while I'm there. She really enjoys her job, cares for her patients and the work that she's doing. Whenever I have an appt, I always request Collette. While I'm there, I feel like I'm catching up with a friend that I haven't seen in a while. I really look forward to all of my dentist appointments because of her.Helpful 2Thanks 2Love this 2Oh no 0 - Robyn E.Flatbush - Ditmas Park, NY052Aug 27, 2024Updated review
I'm still going to Bloom Dental because they are the BEST.
Yesterday I got my first whitening and fixed a few fillings (done by a previous dentist). My appointments were super fast and I walked out with amazing results!! Idk how Dr Tamir does it but my new fillings match so well it feels like I have new teeth.
I was nervous the whitening would be painful but they checked in with me in between each session, addressed all of my concerns and made sure I was comfortable. As always, I had a great experience! Thank you Bloom Dental :)Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0Nov 24, 2021Previous reviewSince my last review I've continued to have only incredible experiences at Bloom Dental. First off, Colette is amazing and makes me even look forward to my cleanings. She's a dental hygiene guru with all the tricks to tackle your swollen gum/flossing issues and never makes you feel like an idiot for all of cavity fillings and root canals you've been through.
Unfortunately this week it wasn't a scheduled cleaning that got me in..but as always, everyone at Bloom Dental made the experience a great one. I was experiencing tooth pain and made an appointment a couple weeks out as I wasn't sure how urgent it was.. but after getting my appointment request they reached out immediately to see what was wrong and even got me in the same day to check it out!!!?! The week of Thanksgiving!!!! Like what.
During my visit, Dr. Tamir listened to all my concerns, calmed me down and ensured me we'd get it sorted. Sure enough, he was right and I'm finally out of pain with a smile even wider knowing the freight train of pain isnt smacking me in the side of the face and I'm confident all my teeth aren't falling out.
The best part is, even if they were falling out.. I know just the place to go to make sure it was taken care of correctly and affordably :)Feb 19, 2021Previous reviewEvery human at Bloom Dental is god sent. I leave the office as if I had a great therapy session - I FEEL GREAT! I'm finally at ease after countless nights of dental anxiety and I'm excited to tell the world how great my visit was.
I can't stress enough how grateful I am to have found an office that does such incredible work AND alleviates my dental fears... all while working with me to make sure I can do so without burning a hole in my pocket!
After an initial visit filled with only tears and dread of dental work (have I mentioned my severe dentist anxiety?) a year later, I now walk in and out with only smiles :) - Bryan B.San Mateo, CA292Jul 18, 2024
Many dental practices are being forced into charging a fee to cover cost overruns from network insurance companies.
Unfortunately Bloom is joining the ranks.
This may keep me from twice annual visits to the hands down best dental experience I have ever had. Every part of Bloom from the front desk, hygiene, dental assistants and the dentist themselves. GOAT. Bummer on the fees.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - Angelica P.San Mateo, CA135141Apr 22, 2024
I have been coming to this practice for 2 years now and I have to say I've always had such pleasant experiences. I first booked online as a new client which was easy to navigate. After being a client, booking follow up appointments with the front desk girl, Bella (short brunette hair and pink lipstick) is even more convenient and she's great. I especially like the dental assistant/hygienist and the dentist because they're kind, communicative, and accommodating. I've recently gone in for a cleaning, a custom mouth guard, and a partial crown within a couple of months. The dentist makes sure to explain the procedure and answer any questions I may have. I feel comfortable and confident being under the care all of the dentists at Bloom dental and reaching out in any case. I look forward to my 6 month cleaning! 10/10 would recommend.
Their office is very beautiful and calming. And having the best technology means they're able to reduce amount of follow ups which is always nice.Helpful 3Thanks 3Love this 3Oh no 0 - Heya H.Foster City, CA02Aug 30, 2024
This is not a dental practice is a business house
The wife is apparently the new CFO or wanna be CFO and has been treating good loyal customers like trash !
Such that one by one they are all going away
Feel bad for the doctor as he is a good man !!
She has come up stupid unreasonable policies that are simply a tactic to extract more and more money from patients like incorrect insurance claims that were resubmitted even though already reimbursed or paid
Or $80 late fees even though appointment was already cancelled
So sick of her money making tactics that
I think it's time to take them to court
look out !!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 18, 2024
I had a great experience at Bloom Dental. The receptionist was super friendly, whether it was over the phone or in-person at the check-in counter. I originally scheduled a last-minute appointment for the same day at 4pm as I was experiencing a lot of pain but then Bella called me back (as well as texted me) to let me know that there was a cancellation and that there was a 2:30pm opening so I was able to book that earlier time.
I showed up 10 minutes earlier as I am a new patient and wanted to make sure things went smoothly. I only waited about 2-3 minutes before the assistant came to get me. (Unfortunately, I didn't catch her name). She greeted me and noticed that my left cheek was swollen and helped get me set up with x-rays right away. She was very warm and caring throughout the entire process. My dentist, Dr. Oganesian was very gentle, patient and kind. I had quite a few questions during my visit and he helped answer and explain everything thoroughly.
This was my first time at this dental office and I felt very well taken care of the entire time I was there. I typically get very anxious at dentist appointments but everyone there made me feel welcome and comfortable (or as comfortable as I could've been given my condition).
My boyfriend did a lot of research on dental offices in the area prior to choosing Bloom Dental for me as I needed urgent dental care and the soonest appointment I could find without compromising the quality of dental work. I'm very glad he chose this for me and thank you to the team at Bloom Dental. I'd highly recommend this dental office!Helpful 6Thanks 5Love this 6Oh no 0 - Allison S.Richmond, VA168275Jul 24, 2024
Just moved to the area and was looking for a new dentist. Saw the reviews and decided to try it out. Best experience I've had going to the dentist. The office is nice and the staff is wonderful. Highly recommend this place!!!!

We loved bloom dental for our family dentist however we can't afford to pay the $200 extra per visit for routine cleanings. This fee is on top of what insurance pays. Hopefully they change their policy.

James, if you are going to leave a review, let's at least make it factually accurate. The Admin Fee is $185 annually, not $200 per appointment.
We also discount this for families. We've over communicated this new change with emails, texts, verbally at appointments and on our website. For all the readers out there, we have a link on the main navigation of our website explaining why we've implemented this fee.
This change is an unfortunate reality check on the state of dental insurance reimbursements. Your particular insurance plan reimburses us $84 for a cleaning. The going rate for hygienists in the bay area is $600-$650 a day (8 hour shift). If you crunch the numbers by the time you factor in benefits, rent, supplies, insurance etc. our breakeven on this service is aprox. $140. That means when you come in to get your teeth cleaned, you and your insurance company believe that it's reasonable for our business to lose $50-$60 to clean your teeth.
Over the last year our office has become a catch all for patients due to other offices dropping insurances. We had a bad review because some lady was upset that she couldn't get routine cleanings in a reasonable amount of time due to the influx of hygiene patients.
Our option was to either drastically reduce the quality of our services, go out of network with insurances or move to a membership program similar to what you find at One Medical Group or Costco and stay in network.
You are more than welcome to find care elsewhere. We cannot afford to keep losing money to clean people's teeth and therefore have no intention to change this policy until insurance companies decide to reimburse us a reasonable amount to deliver services to their members. - Greg Ciro T.San Mateo, CA1352519Jul 8, 2024
Had a great experience getting caught up with my dental health at Bloom. Dr O. and his staff have been super attentive, caring, and informative. I appreciate all the tech in the office that seems to make everything go quicker, and I've never had to wait long for my appointment -- as soon as I sign in, they're always ready to go. Will definitely be back!

Dr. Lior Tamir is great at his work.
I was missing a tooth, but with his recommendations, connections and expertise everything is good now.
I enjoy my new dental implant.
If you are looking for top notch care, look no further.
His office stuff is also very polite and knowledgeable.
Thanks!Helpful 3Thanks 3Love this 3Oh no 0
