From the moment I walked in, everyone I spoke with and who worked on my teeth was friendly, welcoming, and professional. My dentist Manali Mehta is absolutely amazing—skilled, caring, and attentive. Thank you for the excellent care!

I noticed my teeth didn't get the extra attention they normally do three months ago when I was here. The regular hygienist wasn't there. Well Launa is back. She is the best. She takes her time, she explains what is happening in my mouth, and she flosses. My teeth always feel great when I leave her chair. 2/19/26

My mom was a patient at Bright Now Dental in El Cajon and had the best experience there. Launa Hoover, the hygienist, was very attentive to my mom’s needs and took excellent care of her.

Susan Celaya, the office manager, was always kind and extremely helpful. She consistently made prompt decisions and went out of her way to accommodate our preferences.

Got me in fast to fix a broken tooth. They are full service. I got a root canal and 2 teeth fixed in one week. Less pain than I have ever had with a dentist before. Highly recommend.

This place was amazing! Called and Susana booked me same day. They extracted my tooth and were so patient with me, I have a huge phobia of needles and Dr. Mehta let me go at my pace. All the staff was so attentive and reassuring. Highly recommend.

I love the place but the cost of something’s

Does make it hard to do a lot of work on my teeth there

But definitely worth recommending

Hi there, my name is Pablo Torrez. Bright Now is very reliable when it comes to treating and taking care of their patients. My dad and I have been coming here for about three years, and I’ve never had any issues. From the front desk, to the nurses, and doctors, everyone here cares and it allows me to feel comfortable in a dental environment. Which for most of my life I never felt when going to the dentist.

This weekend I had an unexpected dental problem. This morning (Monday) I called at 8:00 AM and was seen by my dentist by 8:30. As always, Dr. Mehta was able to diagnose and correct the problem. Everyone in that office is on their game—receptionists, office manager, dental assistants and Dr. Mehta. They are always polite, professional and knowledgeable. This even required a prescription sent to my doctor. It was handled quickly and was ready when I reached the pharmacy. Thanks to the entire staff at Bright Now Dental in Rancho San Diego for taking care of my needs today.

I noticed my teeth didn't get the extra attention they normally do. The regular hygienist wasn't there. Last time I saw her was 3 months ago.
It seemed like she spent more time cleaning and polishing. She always flossed my teeth thoroughly too. No floss this time. I hope to see her in February. Saying all that I still think everyone there is nice and professional.

It never fails with an appointment your wait is 45-60 minutes long. I’ve waited months for an approval for a crown, but not until my next appointment did I asked about it. Only to find they would have to submit x-rays again. So it leaves me in pain for much longer. The staff is awesome, the office accommodating, and the service you get is awesome.

I needed a crown done for my front chipped tooth and was denied by insurance but Nita kept requesting it and I started letting it go until I got the message that I was approved. Came in and Salma and Angel were assisting Dr. Mehta and they were so gentle and very patient the entire time. I haven’t been to the dentist in a decade because they were so rough on my last visit it scared me but i’m happy that I chipped my tooth now 🤣 jk but seriously thank you guys! The best experience
