It's a dental appointment. What could be so great about that? Well Dr. Winter and her team changed that for me. I require fairly frequent visits to the hygienist and after a relocation from out of state, had to find a dentist. I was referred to Dr. Winter and my experience in her office was outstanding. My appointment was the most thorough I have ever experienced. Dr. Winter and her team are true experts. Not only are my dental needs in great hands in this office, but so is my overall health! I highly recommend Dr. Winter and her

Great experience from the moment you walk in. Starting at the reception area where you are greeted with a smile all the way through to the consultation and exam where you are walked through and informed of the entire process. The staff is very friendly and personable. If you are new to the area or just looking for a new dental experience, i highly recommend Sarah Winter. Her and her team helped me have the confidence to smile without reservation.

Recently Dr.Sarah Winter put in a crown for me. Her work was excellent. The time, care and patience she took was impressive and all backed up by friendly, capable and efficient staff. Helpful?

My husband and I recently moved to San Diego and needed to find a new dentist. A close friend recommended Dr. Winters to us. Like most, I'm not the biggest fan of going to the dentist! That being said: I NEVER mind going to see Dr. Winters! Every single person in her practice goes way above and beyond to make me comfortable, explain what they're doing & make sure I'm ok every step of the way. It's hard to find someone who not only has incredible knowledge in their field, but also the most amazing bedside manner. We are so so lucky to have found doctor Winters and will recommend her and her entire staff to everyone we know!

Dr. Sarah Winter is the dream dentist everyone wishes for! I have been a patient of Dr. Winters for about 2 years now and she is the best dentist I have ever had! She is incredibly diligent, meticulous, and efficient in her work. Ive had several cavities filled by her, sometimes multiple per appointment, and never once had ANY soreness afterward, which is unprecedented in my experience (Ive had a shocking amount of cavities filled in my short lifetime). Shes also taken extra time to clean up additional decay on teeth adjacent to the one being filled, so I know patient health and care is paramount to her. Additionally, I got 4 porcelain veneers put in by Dr. Winter, and the result was absolute perfection, they are incredibly natural-looking, I could not be more pleased with them! Dr. Winter really does have a very discerning eye and executes her vision impeccably. Her staff is AMAZING, as well! Liz will never fail to brighten your day with her sweet smile and endearing demeanor, and Danielle, Bre and Cyndee are so attentive and warm, they always put me at ease and make me feel like Im chatting with friends instead of at a dentist appointment! Thanks so much for everything!

Changing dentists is always stressful. I have had a lot of wonderful dentistry over the years. Our dentist, who we loved, moved away. Sarah Winter took over his practice. WOW! My first experience was for cleaning with Nicole. She is so gentle and thorough, best I have had in a long time. I needed two crowns to replace ones I had for over 40 years (got my money's worth on those). Dr. Winter is without a doubt the most pain free dentist I have ever met. She was not happy with the color of the replacement crowns and she had them redone. They are PERFECT now. The fit, feel, and look is wonderful. Have no hesitation; call lovely Liz, she will set you up with an appointment, and the rest of the staff will take care of you like you are family, family you really like! Welcome to La Jolla Sarah Winter. We are so glad you are here.

Excellent experience. Dr. Winter and her team are so welcoming and professional. I'll definitely be recommending Dr. Winter to my friends and family!

I Highly recommend Sarah Winter Dental! After my initial consultation with Dr. Winter I knew I didn't need to look any further. Dr Winter is simply the best. The location is excellent and has the friendliest staff. I have continually been impressed with their customer service and helpfulness. It starts with Liz as the receptionist who is very friendly and helpful. Instead of a text message for your visit, she will directly call you the day before your appointment as a reminder. My hygienist is Nicole, she has been doing the best job on my gums and I already can see great results after only 2 months- almost no bleeding anymore and the level of my pockets have reduced tremendously since my first appointment, she is extremely soft and nice. Not to mention that I don't suffer anymore and my level of daily pain has reduced to a 0. Sarah Winter Dental is what you would expect from a care provider of excellence!

Sarah is the best! I was in La Jolla visiting my in-laws and got a terrible toothache...Sarah went above and beyond the call of duty to see me over the weekend and make sure I got the dental treatment I needed. I highly recommend her! Helpful?

Dr Winter's Dental is amazing! Very professional & friendly staff. Clean and cozy office. Had the best cleaning experience with the hygienist Nicole. Dr. Winter recommended me for a filling. The filling was quick and painless. Definitely recommend!
Nicole Healy
Dr. Winter is everything you should want in a dentist! She treats each individual patient like family, does exceptional dentistry, and goes out of her way to be sure you do not experience pain. I would not recommend going anywhere else!

I moved to the area about 6 months ago and was overdue for dental check up. I loved my old dentist and was nervous about finding a new one. Dr. Winter was recommended to me by a friend and I am pleased to report a 5 star experience. When I arrived, the little bit of dental-anxiety I had was diminished. Dr. Winter's office has a very comfy-cozy waiting area with coffee and tea! I was greeted right away by the friendly staff, this is not the typical lackluster experience I'd expected from a dental office. The hygienist, Nicole, was very gentle and thorough. I felt very comfortable and now my teeth are squeaky clean. Dr. Winter and her staff were friendly and knowledgeable. I feel confident my future visits will be just as easy and comfortable.

I have EXTREME dental phobia due to a lifetime of inferior dental care. I have had root canals, tooth extractions, implants, gum disease... You name it, I have had to deal with it. I found Dr. Winter on Yelp while looking up dentists who provide sedation. I had my teeth cleaned with a laser, not the usual whirling dental tool and metal scraping of what little enamel off that I have. This laser treatment was AMAZING! No gagging on foaming fluoride, no puffy bleeding gums when the treatment was finished. The cleaning was quick and efficient! After my quick and easy cleaning, I briefly met Dr. Winter, who spent a few minutes discussing my next appointment. She will then present a treatment plan that will hopefully be affordable and pain free! I know I have a lot of decay to deal with and with sedation, I can have all of my teeth repaired in one or two appointments. The office staff was kind and understanding of my terror when I walked through the door. The office is a soothing environment with comfortable chairs and up to date magazines. I only spent a few moments here because the hygienist was right on time. The treatment rooms are state of the art and the chairs are comfortable when completely reclined. Any one with with severe phobias, please do yourself a favor and give Dr. Winter and her team a try. You will be absolutely satisfied with the entire team.

If I could give Dr. Sarah Winter 10 stars, I would. I had my treatment done today, two crowns placed, instead of two root canals as was recommended by another dentist, at Western Dental. I was so happy to hear that Dr. Sarah was able to save two of my teeth when, other dentists would have just performed a very expensive root canal. The quality of care I received today was far beyond what I've ever experienced in a dentist's office. I had major anxiety driving all the way to her office, but I kept reminding myself of how calm Dr. Sarah was when I had met her the first time. And sure enough as soon as I walked into her office, my worries were left at the door and I knew I was in good hands. Do you want to know how much pain I felt today? Zero pain. Even hours after the numbness has dissipated, I have felt no pain. And I truly believe it's because Dr. Sarah is an exceptional dentist, who puts the highest level of integrity into her work. And it shows across the board. There are a few essential professionals you need in life, and three of them are a trustworthy dentist, an honest mechanic, and a clever accountant. I've found two of those now...Anyone know a good accountant? Thanks again Dr. Sarah!

As one fairly knowledgeable about dentistry I can endorse Dr. Winter enthusiastically. I'm retired and have had a lot of experience being a dental patient over the years. She uses up-to-date technology and has gentle, skillful technique that makes procedures painless and fast with great results. She's reasonable, personable and she pretends to get my arcane jokes. I think you'll like her. Helpful?

What a hidden gem I have found! This office will make you feel like home from the second you walk in. It was my first time visiting and I was coming to get teeth whitening. I was greeted with a warm smile and genuine excitement. The decorating of this office will make you feel like you are on vacation! It's hip, modern, beachy-chic and definitely puts you in a great mood. Bre, Lisa and Christian are all extremely personable and knowledgeable. They were all so patient with my questions and time efficient! If you are in need of a dentist this place is incredible and will not disappoint. They leave you smiling, no pun intended!

Outstanding Care! I'd moved to Sarah Winter's Dental practice as my lifelong dentist had retired, and she made me feel extremely comfortable during what I'd consider to be a terrifying dental situation. Like many people, I have a fear of dentists, but when it was all said and done, I'd been made very comfortable, and constantly well informed. When it was all over, and I was handed a mirror, I was extremely pleased, as the work Sarah had done was above and beyond my expectations.
