I had come in for a checkup and stayed for an unexpected crown replacement. I was given a warm blanket and a pillow for my head. Staff and doctor are wonderful. I highly recommend.

I’m always amazed by the professionalism and care I receive here. Each visit tops the last! Amber is wonderful with her attention to detail, fun stories, and amazing professionalism, and yes, she offered me two pillows. I was on cloud nine!

The doctor is caring, relatable with great music taste, and always fast and precise. Kumar did an excellent job with my temporary crown and was so kind throughout the process. And Brenda deserves a huge shout out. She’s truly the go-to person for everything, from reception to X-rays to crown impressions.

Thank you all for your support and the positive energy you bring. You make every visit a great experience!

Love the new dental hygienist, Lucas. I also loved the old one. They have late appointments on Wednesdays! So if you can’t miss any work, I suggest this place. That is why I started going here.

Third time's a charm!Tried 2 other dentists since i changed to Medicare/Kaiser coverage. The first one made me wait 2 hours in the waiting room each time. The second one was super expensive and wanted to do lots of unnecessary work. Looks like I finally found the right one this time! Professional, reasonable, customer service oriented. Thanks!

The music screaming at me from the TV was so bad I had to exit the waiting room and stand in the hall. Unbelievable noise is what I call it. The office staff (one lady on duty during lunch hour) could not have cared less about my complaint. On a more positive note, Lucas cleaned my teeth and he was fantastic. This was the first time I've had him as my hygienist. He was very professional, but still added a bit of humor during the cleaning.

The dentist and staff are all great and very nice. But Amber is the best in my opinion. She is so very helpful, knowledgeable and has a huge heart it makes the dentist visits so much better as someone that hates going to the dentist she makes it so every visit is as stress free as possible.

They were on time for my appointment. I was able to get additional service while I was there. My hygienist was very nice and knew what she doing. She was willing to do more than required. The receptionist was very helpful, polite and professional.

The young hygienist was fantastic, very detailed and polite. Lucas did a great job! My only concern is always the financial part, it seems that this company wants to attach other charges above of what's covered by my insurance. I understand they're a business but my insurance is already paying for the services rendered, they're not free. So for a dental cleaning that's covered under my insurance, they wanted to tack another $220 for random services. I was able to bring it down but they always get some $ from me for "non-covered" services. Just watch out for that, otherwise the service is great.

I really like them. Mariah at front desk is awesome. Lucas is detail oriented when he cleans my teeth. Dr Machado is an excellent and caring dentist. Go see them.

Best Dental place I have ever been in my life and I was a dental assistant before so I've been to lots of them..Everyone there is so pleasant and down to earth..All positive in a negative situation where your teeth are causing u enormous pain. As soon as u walk in you feel better thanks to the people working here to help u.. I felt so much better that I didn't wanna leave and kept talking to them.. Just lovely I would recommend this place hands down.. The best place u can go...

It’s been a while since ive visited a dentist office after having traumatic experience from others but from the moment i walked through the door it’s been a great experience which i never thought id say about a dental office but DR Barton is great and thorough and Amber is awesome made sure I was comfortable made sure I understood everything that was getting done and shoutout to everyone in the building honestly every interaction I’ve had has been great with all of them I’m not great with names so it’s hard to remember all of them

Dr. Machado and his staff is by far the BEST I've experienced in my 65 years of getting dental services and care. Straight-forward, honest, caring, and places your health as their top and primary agenda. Love, love, love..

The new interior paint job and flooring is very nice! Hygienist always does an efficient job on my six month cleaning. The office did not alert me by text or e-mail as in the past of my appointment until the day before by automated voice mail. I almost missed my bi-annual cleaning! Need to work on their patient contact systems.

I'm a new patient. They were running behind, and so it was a long appointment, but it was worth the wait. The staff was so nice and accommodating, and the dentist was one of the kindest people I've ever met. He really put me at ease, and I typically HATE going to the dentist. I think I found my new Dentists office!

This place has been the first dentist office that truly cares about their patient well-being as a whole. I was not treating like a client/patient. I was treating like family. I would recommend Bright Now to anyone. Thank you all!!

It's always the case that my appointments start about 20 minutes later than scheduled. Otherwise my experience with the Dental Hygienist and other employees and Dentists has been very helpful. My mouth and my teeth are cleaner and healthier. Blessings

My son and I had a wonderful experience at brightnow dental. My 8-year old son has been anxious ever since he started going to the dentist. We’ve been to multiple pediatric dentists in both Southern California and the Central Valley, but none compares to our experience at bright now dental. Partima, the hygienist, was welcoming and reassured my son the moment she met him. She listened to him and made him feel comfortable. He tolerated the cleaning with no problems (he usually requires laughing gas because of his experience but this time he did not). Dr Machado was friendly and helpful as well. We will definitely return and make bright now dental our dental office! Thank you!

The staff is fairly new and not great with verifying what your insurance covers vs. what you pay out of pocket. Was quoted $980 by the gentleman at front desk and the hygienist doing my deep cleaning knocked the unnecessary charges off and in the end I’m paying about $500. Very steep price for a deep cleaning but with prices the way they are currently I wasn’t complaining. Check up, cleaning and two fillings took about 3hrs but it went fast as Dentist and assistants are on their game.
