Juliet Pacaldo

Hi, I’m Juliet Pacaldo, and Peninsula Dental was introduced to me by my friend. The first time I came here, I didn’t have any confidence in smiling, and I always feel like inferior to other people, especially when smiling. When I was introduced to Dr. Gupta, she told me that the process was pretty easy.
I didn’t believe it because usually it’s a long process, but, man, it was three days, and it was quick, so the process was not painful. They give you medications to, of course, numb you and make you sleep, but all along, the staff here are good and very accommodating, and they cater to you so well that when you go home, you don’t have any pain.

But you have to religiously follow the process on how to take all the medications so you don’t have any pain. I did not have any complications. I did not have any swelling. I have a swelling a little, but I didn’t have any bruising on my face. And what I really got back from this is my confidence to smile 100% to any people in the whole world. So I really thank you, Dr. Gupta, and all the staff here at Peninsula Dental, because I was able to be back to my normal self and my younger self. Thanks.

Derrek Gones

Hi, I am Derrek Gones. I’m here to tell my story about my implants and the service you guys provided.
The first thing that made me come here was the fact that my teeth were horrible. I’ve had drug use that destroyed my teeth. My confidence was down, my breath was bad, and I couldn’t chew any food.
I came here, and you guys fixed the issue. I am super happy. I love my teeth. I am confident. People look at me with more respect. They look at me differently, and that means a lot to me.
Everybody here treated me fair, they were awesome, and I was just all around happy. I couldn’t be happier. I love my smile.
I used to cover my mouth when I would smile. Now I am super confident, and life is good. I want to thank Andy and Peninsula Dental, and I appreciate all of you.

What are you looking forward to doing when all the implants are healed?
I am looking forward to pizza and $150 steak at Ruth’s Chris. I couldn’t chew, and sometimes when chewing, I felt like I would choke, and it was scary to me.
But now I can chew whatever I want. So I am happy and excited about that, and life is good.

How will the new teeth help you in your business?
They help my business tremendously. Before implants, I wouldn’t want to get in front of the camera, and part of my job requires me to be in front of the camera.
Sometimes I would go to a show with the COVID mask on because I didn’t want to show my teeth and was very insecure.
Now I’m in front of the camera. I smile all day, and people who come to get the dogs from me, look at me with more respect.
They want to buy a dog from a person who has a beautiful smile like this.

How has your relationship with your girlfriend improved?
That is much better. While driving here, my girlfriend wouldn’t even turn toward my side because she didn’t want to smell my breath. My breath is fine now, with no issues. Our passion is back because she didn’t want to kiss me earlier.
I am going to Italy soon on a family trip. My mom’s from Albania, so we’re probably going to cross the Mediterranean sea and go to Albania as well. I am ready for all the selfies.

Is it really worth the pain and the money spent?
100%. I went through a little pain, I’ll be honest, but I will say this is 100% worth it. You feel better, you look better, and it is worth every penny spent.

Doug

Hi there. I am a CEO of a company and my teeth were so bad that I could not chew solids for about a year and a half. My upper teeth would fall out they were one big continuous bridge and it was really a nightmarish existence and then when I found out the Peninsula Implant Center it literally changed my life. I came in and had my uppers done about 5 or 6 months ago and then recently I had the lowers done and truly it was a life-changing event. I mentioned I am a CEO of a company and it was at a point where I was having my hand over my mouth my lower teeth to not show people that all my teeth were broken or missing or whatever it might be so I cannot recommend enough to have this procedure done and to have teeth put in that I had. I will never have to worry about all the dental issues that came with my previous teeth – so again a very very happy customer; truly a life-changing event. Read More

Connie

Hi, my name is Connie. Two years ago, I came into this office. I had already been looking for different dentists and options until I found Peninsula Dental Implant Center. I had lost my teeth because of an accident. I came to the initial consultation with Dr. Shivani Gupta and she gave me two options for treatment that could be done, at the time I chose the removable overdenture which is two implants and a snap-on denture but after a while, I felt insecure and I wasn’t able to be fully myself which made me self-conscious even more. I decided to come back and have Doctor Gupta convert my snap-on denture to an All on Four

treatment plan for my upper and lower teeth which she did and added more implants attaching the dentures to them. She delivered my brand-new set of teeth in one week, which I am beyond happy with the way my new teeth. I can be myself and smile more without having to cover my mouth. Doctor Gupta is really a master at what she does, her work is excellent.

Therese

Hi, my name is Therese Rivero. I live in San Francisco but here I am in San Carlos at Peninsula Dental Implants, with my new teeth, which I did not have one week ago. I made the call last week I came in the next day and decided I was going to go with Peninsula Dental Implants because I liked the office, I liked the people, I liked the equipment and here I am in 1 week with a whole new smile! I lost my original smile due to chemotherapy because I had breast cancer three years ago. In the past three years, I have researched and shopped for some way to get my teeth back to looking right. I was just hoping that maybe I can get something, that would help and I wouldn’t look awful. I had no idea I could get a whole mouthful of new teeth and look great and be able to eat and it’s like I’ve never lost my teeth due to cancer. Look I have new teeth! I have a new smile in less than a week! I did not have to go from office to office, appointment to appointment. This is- I want to stress; Phone call last week, new smile today – one week. I had my teeth pulled and whatever they put in is in. I came back today and now I have new teeth in case you haven’t noticed I have a new smile and I’m so glad I came here! Read More

Elie

Hi my name is Elie Goldstein and I’m here at the Peninsula Dental Implant Centre and I’ve got to say that my experience has been amazing for 20 plus years. I’ve been losing teeth; I’ve been having a hard time eating. It’s been very difficult in general when it comes to my mouth and never used to smile. Once I had the implants done, the experience was actually very easy. It was, I wouldn’t say that it was painless but there was very little pain. The Centre managed everything for me personally very well and I’m super happy with my results. I couldn’t be happier and I would recommend it to anybody that really needed it like myself. So that’s my story and thank you Peninsula Dental Implant Centre.

Larry

Hi my name is Larry, I’m about to get my teeth fixed finally. It’s been a long time and so I decided to start looking online and I saw on Dr. Gupta’s ad for $15000 per jaw and I decided I’ll give it a shot. Come over and get interviewed basically because I was tired of my teeth hindering everything I do. Now I’m done with the procedure, I love my teeth. It was tough to get it done all at once but it’s very quick compared to everyone else and I love it. Really great team here. Made me feel great the whole time and I really like my teeth. I can smile now and I’ve also quit smoking so that worked out great. Now I’m on day 7 and to think of not smoking – my teeth will keep me there, so the money was spent for two purposes. Anyways very happy with the whole situation here and I hope that anybody who has this kind of issue, self-image issues – that they would go down this road. It’s well worth it. Read More

Gabriel

My name is Gabriel. I am from Belmont, California. I got my procedure done at the Peninsula Dental Implant Center. It was not the first consultation I went to. It was the third one. Its the one that I felt best fit me. The people here, the staff working here – I gelled with. The price was the right price for me, which was huge. The procedure I had done was because of my drug addiction in the past. I have 27 months clean today. I had missing teeth in the back. I had 4 missing teeth. I never got my wisdom teeth pulled out. They were crushing my teeth. They were causing a lot of problems. I had the recess of the gums from the drug addiction and I knocked out a front tooth playing football many years ago, in high school. It was discolored, my teeth were a huge disappointment to me. This was a procedure that was done. To be honest with you, it really was a painless experience. I thought I was going to have a lot more pain going into it (but) I did not. It was an IV sedative one so I was going in and out of consciousness. But the only time I actually felt any pain was when the teeth first got put in. It wasn’t more of a pain, it was just a discomfort. If you’re scared of the pain- it’s a painless experience, it really is. The benefits it has done for me in the short 45 days I had, it has changed my life. Women look at me differently, people look at me differently, people smile at me differently. My life is forever going to be changed. It is an experience I would recommend anyone doing. Read More

James

Hi, I am James and I am here at the Peninsula Implant Dental Center. I want to tell you a little bit about my experiences here. I came in to the Peninsula Center about a year ago. I was having major problems with my bridges, they were falling apart.I haven’t been able to eat properly for 40 years. Over the past year, I came in, few visits- they replaced all my lower teeth and few on the top. I couldn’t be happier. Before I couldn’t eat corn, apples, BBQ ribs. Now I can eat anything I want, whenever I want. My health is improved because I can eat like a normal person again. You owe it to yourself, just come in, see the people here- they are friendly, they are nice, they are willing to work with you on the financing, not a problem. You really should come in. If you’re thinking about it , drop on by, give them a holler. You owe it to yourself. Read More

Leonard

Hi my name is Leonard. I had thought about getting implants. So I went shopping, online. Found Peninsula Dental and I called them up, checked it out. So I came in, had an appointment. Good staff, nice office, really nice people. I signed up and I am glad I did. Not only did I save a whole bunch of money but I got some good looking teeth and they are exactly what I was looking for. They do everything that they can to make it that way. It’s a process, it takes a while- longer than I thought- but I never researched it before I started. Just went through the steps, took the advice and it turned out really good. Read More

Neal

My name is Neal and I have been a customer of Peninsula Dental to get complete implants, top and bottom. Dr. Gupta did a very good job fitting everything. I was very apprehensive about this. It took me a long time to make the decision. But I am very glad that the decision I made, now that I can look back on, was the proper one. They have treated me very well. I am very happy with being able to eat the food that I used to be able to eat, before my teeth got so bad. But now I am back to enjoying life again.

Kenneth M.

Hi, my name is Ken and I am from San Francisco. I found Peninsula Dental through an advertisement in the mall. I came in and did the procedure for the top and bottom arc(h). I’m very happy I got it done. At first, it felt a little weird, when I first had the implants placed. It’s been about six months now, and it feels a lot more normal and I’m happy with the work that Peninsula Dental has done.

Patient

Dr. Gupta did a very good job on my teeth. I’m so happy and I wish that everybody could find out what a wonderful doctor she is, because she does such a good job. So I recommend her to anybody that wants to have an implant or any dental work. So I hope you can get an opportunity to meet her and to get your own view of her excellent work.

Patient

I was looking for a dentist, because I needed dental implants and I was checking out various ads and I saw Dr. Gupta’s ad so I came down here and we had an interview with each other. And I liked her. I liked her credentials very much and I also liked her consideration of price, because she was opening a new office here rather than just East Bay and so I decided to come here. It was close to home and she did a lovely job. I didn’t really find anything too terribly painful and the process worked out quite nice and I’m pleased with her work. So I’m glad she’s my dentist.

Patient

Hello. I came in to see Dr. Gupta here two weeks ago and for a questionable two transplant implant and to see if it was do-able. And they came in and gave me a 3-D scan and the scan came out where it was do-able and set up an appointment for the following day and I experienced no pain whatsoever. And, yeah, it was a fantastic and, you know, it was very do-able and the price was very affordable for me. I’m retired, you know, and I came in for a follow-up the following week. Everything looked great. Got a call, too, the following day, after the surgery, I guess you would say. And, yeah, everything came out great. I can’t say enough about Dr. Gupta. She’s very professional and the staff was great, asked me how things were going, asked during the transplant. I can’t say enough. That’s all … Read More

Lowell

I was looking for a high-quality practice to insert my dental implants and in my search on the Internet I found the Peninsula Dental Implants Center and Dr. Gupta’s practice, and was very pleased with the certifications that she had and decided to make an appointment and come in and have the work done. When I arrived, the staff took very good care of me. At the moment, I am just done with my first surgery and am very pleased with the results as well as the entire process. It’s probably one of the best dental experiences that I’ve had.

Rich K.

Hi, my name is Rich Kinsey. And I’m a patient of Dr. Gupta’s. I found her because I knew I needed an implant. She happened to mail a marketing postcard that introduced herself. And to be honest with you, the price was right. So I visited and she took care of two implants that I needed and the second one was just done today and she actually had me redo the implant, because in her professional eyes, it wasn’t to her satisfaction. And now I have a perfect implant because of her, and I’m sure it will work well for the future.

Jonathan E.

Hi, my name is Jonathan England. I live in Milpitas, California. And I would definitely recommend Peninsula Dental Implant Center to anyone who maybe needs one. The service was phenomenal, I needed a dental implant right away. I had an incident with my tooth and I needed to come in immediately and get them to help me. And so they were great, very patient and very knowledgeable, right on time, they had everything right here in their office and so I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs that type of service or procedure. I’m very pleased and if I have another issue with my teeth – hopefully I don’t – I’ll be back to visit them.

Louie S.

Hi, my name is Louie Salami from San Franciso, California. And I had lost my front tooth here and Dr. Gupta, I met Dr. Gupta, and she had an implant put in for me in about an hour. Everything went so wonderful, the next day I woke up, no pain, no nothing. Everything was great. She’s one of the best dentists I ever met. Peninsula Dental Implants. They’re the best.

Jim

Hello. Hi, my name’s Jim. I’ve been coming to Dr. Gupta for a while now. And I had some really big problems with dental work. And when I came here, she had the patience with me and has fixed my teeth the way that I first wanted them to be fixed and I’ve had a lot of dental problems. A lot throughout my life. I have very soft teeth so and now the implants they have helped a lot. And one time I was here we had probably might have been my mistake or whatever, but some of the color was not quite right and so without having to have any hassles or any problems Dr. Gupta just said, “OK. We’ll take care of it.” She took them out. Matched the color to what I wanted. Came back. Everything is great. And now I’m very happy. You can’t find any better work than that. Everything is really great. Read More

Lara G.

Hi, my name is Lara Gonzalez. And I was referred here by my uncle who got his dental implant teeth done here by Dr. Shivani Gupta. My case was I had to get my wisdom teeth extraction. I did that over two months ago. That went fine. She did a great job. I read a lot of cases where people were really freaking out about getting their wisdom teeth removed. That was my case. But I really trusted Dr. Gupta. She did a wonderful job. I came back to get my teeth cleaning. She did an awesome job. I do recommend Dr. Shivani Gupta. And you can always find her here in San Carlos.

Harold

Hi, my name is Harold. I came to Dr. Gupta about six months ago, because my teeth were a mess. And I was very impressed with the equipment that Dr. Gupta has, very up-to-date equipment. And I was even more impressed with their skill. She did a very, very fine job with little pain or effort on my part. My family have reviewed my teeth for me, and my daughter says they look better than hers, which I doubt. But they look really good. I’m very pleased. I would recommend Dr. Gupta to anyone.
