Palm Desert Modern Dentistry

My wife has never had a tooth extraction and was extremely nervous. Dr. Alexandra Rutwind, Periodontist, reassured my wife to calm her, extracted the tooth and did a bone graft and my wife said she did not feel a thing! Recovery has been very positive with no issues. My wife would highly recommend Dr. Rutwind for any Periodontic/Oral surgical procedure procedures

I haven’t been to the dentist in a couple years and this was my first time with PDMD as I have new insurance through my employer that my usual dental office doesn’t accept. So of course I was nervous as I didn’t know anyone or what to expect. My appointment started off on a rocky foot, because I had some confusion with my appointment time, and my appointment was set as an emergency due to a part of my filling falling out, but luckily they were able to still see me even though I was technically late, but I was told that there was only time for X-Rays, which was totally fine. I had my X-Rays done and saw Dr. Tran, who is lovely. Turns out I needed a partial crown due to a bad cavity and he was able to handle everything while I was there, which I originally thought I would have to come back for. Dr. Tran was thorough, really friendly and easy to converse with, and made me feel really comfortable. All important traits when seeing a dentist in my opinion. I was first seen around 10am and was out with my tooth fixed by 11:30ish. Extremely relieved that everything was taken care of despite the time mix up and how everything was handled quickly, but efficiently. Big shout out to the staff I encountered today at PDMD! Thank you all!

Just had my teeth cleaned by Melina. She did a very thorough job, has a great personality, and a pleasure to have her do my cleaning. Exrays were done as well as time with the dentist. What a wonderful dental facility - very state of the art on everything. So glad I am able to go there as part of my dental program.

had a great experience at this Palm Desert, modern dentistry. The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. Dr. Tran explained everything clearly and took the time to answer my questions. The office was clean and well organized, and my appointment started on time. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for quality dental care.

This review is for Dr. Lisa who is a rock star dentist! I came in with a chipped tooth as an emergency patient and got in very next day (thanks front office!) Turns out I needed a new crown. When the temp was on I had an issue (which I always do with my temp crowns) - and she fixed me up quickly and with great expertise. Dr Lisa was incredibly thorough throughout every aspect of the process: from crown planning to temp placement to final placement. She is truly a perfectionist and also a very friendly and down to earth doctor who you’ll enjoy chatting with. And VERY importantly she is super skillful with those numbing needles! I hate those things SO much and most drs just JAM it in there. 🫣 But Dr Lisa has a very smooth touch for this process and you barely know it’s there! She also fitted me for my nightguard which now works perfect also. VERY appreciative of Dr Lisa and the whole PDMD team!!

We had a wonderful experience with Palm Desert Modern Dentistry. Our oldest son recently had two crowns completed, and the entire team was professional, kind, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process. As a parent, it's always reassuring when providers take the time to explain everything clearly and make sure your child feels comfortable. The staff went above and beyond to help our son feel at ease, and the work was completed smoothly with great attention to detail. We truly appreciate the care, compassion, and professionalism shown by everyone in the office. We are very happy with the results and grateful to have found a dental team we trust. Thank you for taking such great care of our son!
