My family and I absolutely love this office! The service is wonderful, and the staff is always so friendly and welcoming. I’ve never felt as comfortable going to the dentist as I do here. They truly take the time to get to know you and make sure you feel comfortable throughout your visit, especially when you need extensive or time-consuming work, like I did. I really appreciate their patience, care, and attention to detail. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a dentist who genuinely cares about their patients!Posted on Google![]()

I really owe this review to Dr Moqattash and his staff. I usually do not have time to write reviews, but this time I needed to take the time to write it. The care itself is top‑notch, but what really sets them apart is the atmosphere they create. They explain everything clearly, make sure you’re comfortable, and somehow turn something most people dread into a positive experience. We had such a wonderful experience. The entire team (Lorena, Simone and I can't recall the name of the other two beautiful ladies helping Dr Moqattash, so sorry) is incredibly friendly, patient, and caring. They made my children (ages 11, 12 &15) feel completely comfortable from the moment we walked in. The staff went above and beyond to explain everything and make the visit fun and stress-free. It’s clear they truly care about their young patients. Highly recommend to any parent looking for an exceptional pediatric dental experience. Dr Moqattash is very personal and remembered who I was from my last visit. He is thoughtful and considerate as to any pain or discomfort me or my kids might feel. My children love him and he is the only dentist they want to keep going. If you’re looking for a dental office where you feel cared for, respected, and truly welcomed, this is the place. I can’t recommend them enough.Posted on Google![]()

I always have the best treatment here. The hygienist and doctor are great and all the staff as well!
Let’s talk about your tooth.
Tell us what’s happening. Our team can help you check appointment availability and understand the next step.
A little clarity, right now
What’s troubling your tooth?
Pick the one that sounds like you. You’ll get practical steps for right now, while you arrange care.
Toothache & tooth pain
Throbbing, sensitive to hot or cold, sore when you bite down, or worse at night.What to do next
Rinse gently with warm water and floss carefully to clear any trapped food. A cold compress on the outside of your cheek can ease swelling. Don’t put aspirin against the tooth or gum — it burns the tissue. Pain that keeps coming back, or keeps you awake, has a cause worth finding.
Call about tooth pain relief →
Broken or cracked tooth
A chip, a crack, a sharp edge, or damage after a knock or a fall.What to do next
Rinse your mouth with warm water and hold a cold compress against your face for swelling. Save any pieces you can find and bring them with you. A crack that looks small on the surface can still reach the nerve, so get it looked at rather than waiting to see.
Call about a damaged tooth →
Knocked-out tooth
An adult tooth has come out. This is the one where minutes really matter.What to do next
Pick the tooth up by the crown, never the root. If it’s dirty, rinse it briefly in milk or saline — don’t scrub it. If it slips back into the socket easily, hold it there by biting on a clean cloth. If it won’t, keep it in a cup of milk and bring it. Never put a baby tooth back. Come in as fast as you can; if you can’t reach us, go to another emergency dentist.
Call the dental team now →
Swelling or infection
Swollen gums, a swollen face, a bad taste — the symptoms of a tooth infection.What to do next
A suspected dental abscess needs treating, not waiting out — it won’t clear on its own. Call and describe what you’re seeing. If breathing or swallowing is getting difficult, or the swelling is spreading toward your eye or throat, that’s an emergency room, not a dental office.
Call about urgent dental care →
Lost filling or crown
A filling or crown that’s come out, gone loose, or broken away.What to do next
Keep the crown somewhere safe and bring it — a crown repair often means re-cementing the one you already have. Chew on the other side and keep the area clean. Don’t try to glue it back yourself. The tooth underneath is exposed and fragile, so it’s worth sorting quickly.
Call about a filling or crown repair →
Wisdom tooth pain
Pressure or jaw pain right at the back, or a gum flap that keeps flaring up.What to do next
Rinse with warm salt water and keep the area as clean as you can — food trapped under a gum flap is often what sets it off. A cold compress helps the jaw. Wisdom tooth pain that keeps returning usually needs an X-ray to see what the tooth is actually doing.
Call about wisdom tooth pain →
Braces or mouth injury
A wire digging in, or a bitten lip, cheek or tongue that won’t settle.What to do next
For a bitten lip or tongue, rinse gently and use a cold compress. Cover a sharp wire end with orthodontic wax. Don’t pull out a wire that’s embedded in the gum or cheek — let us take it out. If bleeding won’t stop with gentle pressure, go to an emergency department.

Know what comes next
A clearer path
from concern to care.
- 01
Call and tell us what’s wrong
What happened, when it started, whether there’s swelling. We’ll tell you how urgent it looks and what’s available before you set off.
- 02
We find out what’s causing it
Dr. Moqattash examines the tooth and takes the imaging needed to see the cause — digital X-rays and 3D scanning are here in the building, so you’re not sent elsewhere for them.
- 03
You hear the options and the cost
What we’d recommend, what the alternatives are, and what each one costs — before anything is decided.
Before you call
A few helpful answers.
Can I be seen today?
Call (909) 852-6787 and we’ll tell you honestly what’s open today rather than promising a slot we don’t have. It depends on the day and on how urgent your problem is. If you can’t reach us and it’s urgent, please find another emergency dentist rather than waiting.
Can I just walk in?
Please call first. We’ll check the schedule and either bring you in or tell you the soonest we can — which beats sitting in a waiting room with a toothache for an appointment that isn’t there.
I’ve never been to Finesse before. Is that a problem?
Not at all — you don’t need to be an existing patient to be seen for an emergency. Bring a photo ID and your insurance details if you have them, and arrive a few minutes early for the new-patient paperwork.
What will it cost?
An emergency visit starts with an exam and the imaging needed to find the cause. What the treatment costs depends on what we find, and you’ll hear the figure before we begin. Ask about the examination fee when you call.
Do you take my insurance?
We’re a Preferred Provider for many PPO dental plans, including children’s Medicaid. Call with your plan details and we’ll check your participation and benefits for you. We also take cash, checks and most major credit cards, and work with CareCredit. View financial options.
Will I need a root canal or an extraction?
Not necessarily. Plenty of emergencies are settled with a filling, a crown or clearing an infection. Where the nerve is involved, root canal treatment usually saves the tooth, and removal is the last resort — if it does come to that, we’ll talk about replacing the tooth at the same time.
I’m nervous about the dentist. Can you help?
Tell us when you book and we’ll plan around it — more time, everything explained before it happens, and nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available. There are blankets and headphones too. Learn about comfort options.

Everyone is amazing and my husband and I had a great experience with the dentist Alex and his staff. Simone did a fantastic deep cleaning and was very gentle and thorough.

I have been coming here the past two years. First, Lorena is an amazing liaison with your insurance and will do all she can to help you with receiving services. Every single staff member of this establishment is KIND and PATIENT. I love that each of their personalities are all positive and uplifting. Which brings me to Simone, the dental hygienist who is knowledgable, thorough in her work, and compassionate. My mom enjoys going to Simone, which says a lot for someone who in the past dreaded going to get a cleaning. Lastly, Dr. Alex is not a pushy salesman type of dentist. He will give you his recommendations and rationale. Truly, he is a nice man who has provided me, my mother and my 2 year old will excellent care. He has taken the time and initiative to provide up to date, nontoxic techniques in his dental office. This office has been a blessing for my family and I.Posted on Yelp![]()

I had gone to another dentist close by and they quoted me a pretty high price, 8400.00 out of pocket, I decided to get a second opinion and came to Finesse dental in Rancho, the office manager I spoke to, her name is Lorena, she is very professional and very friendly, gave me great advice insurance wise, I ended up paying less than half of what the other dentist was going to charge, what I noticed right away is they have the latest in technology as far as equipment and dental software, very impressive, Dr. Moqattash is very professional, friendly and patient with his patients, also he is very good at what he does, his staff give out a great vibe, I am super happy that I decided to come here, the dental hygienist was also very professional and friendly and gave me lots of great advice on how to care for my teeth. I give this office a 10 out of 10.Posted on Yelp![]()

I don't even know what to say. As someone that was traumatized as a child from the dentist. When I found out my child(3yr) had a cavity I was highly anxious. After doing hours of research on the fillings it left me even more anxious knowing my kid had to fast be sedated and injected for a cavity. When loosing hope I found a post on laser fillings for cavities, which is non invasive. I quickly came On yelp to find my nearest option and I came across this dentistry. If we were informed that such technology exists less children would be traumatized. The staff here is beyond amazing and helpful. My kid is 3 years old and did amazing. Thanks to this option. We were done unless then an hour and ready to go eat after this. 100/10 recommend. They take all insurances I have medical and only had to pay a small fee out of pocket+1Posted on Yelp![]()

We have finally found our dental family! Dr. Alex and his staff are phenomenal! They are all very patient, thorough and professional. Dr. removed a huge filling and did my crown and I am very pleased with the results. Simone, the dental hygienist is absolutely amazing! For anyone who is seeking the human attributes described above, a staff who takes patient concerns and needs seriously and a clean, technologically advanced environment, I would recommend Finesse Dental.

I would like to take a minute to thank Dr. Alexander for the exceptional work and customer service he provided my dear Mom. She is 82 years old and has never had any dental work done in her life. She has beautiful teeth. But, she recently found a cracked tooth that desperately needed attention. So, he found that she actually needed two root canals on two of her wisdom teeth which went very smoothly. I had hoped that it would not be painful for her, but she did wonderful throughout the entire procedure. Alexander was very professional, knowledgeable, confident, gentle, and kind! He was very accomodating to Mom--I was very pleased with him. The entire staff is quite cohesive with how they work together as a team. Lorena was exceptional--very nice and personable and the other two assistants were equally impressive. The office is classy and serene and peaceful with its fountain in the center of all the work stations. The music was very relaxing. Over all, it was a very nice and pleasant experience while waiting for my dear Mom. :)Posted on Yelp![]()

I love my hygienist Simone ! She is very friendly and informative with any questions you have. She provides useful tips in bettering my hygiene practices and is very attentive in making sure I get a good clean on my checkups. She constantly makes sure that you are doing good throughout the process and make your experience comforting. Simone truly cares about her patients and I recommend scheduling an appointment with her.
