The Smile Spa

I am a new patient at The Smile Spa, and had my first visit with Dr. Joelle yesterday. The office is beautiful, and the staff is kind, patient, and professional. Dr. Joelle is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to truly explain what was going on with my persistent clicking/popping jaw. I’ve had jaw popping for over 10 years, and no one has been able to clearly explain the cause or offer real solutions. Dr. Joelle was able to provide answers and a treatment option during my visit, which was such a relief. I finally feel hopeful and excited moving forward. I am excited to tell all of my friends and family about The Smile Spa!

I’ve had bad dental experiences in the past and did not want to go to the dentist. I broke a tooth so had no choice. My daughter in law and grandson had been to the Smile Spa and had a great experience so I called them for an appointment. I decided to do full mouth restoration to address all at one time. I had surgery 2 weeks ago. Extracted 3 teeth, 6 implants, sinus lift and bone graft. Got my stitches out today. A couple of days of discomfort was all!! Dr. Nguyen is amazing! Luz, his assistant made me feel comfortable. Looking forward to next steps with Dr.Joelle Elahad! All staff is wonderful! Highly recommend!!

I am 56 years old and, because I have moved many times in my life, I have been to many different dentists and I can say without hesitation that Dr. Shawn is by far the most superior dentist/periodontist I have ever seen. The work he did in my mouth was absolutely top-notch. His precision, expertise, and attention to detail are truly remarkable. Thank you so much, Dr. Shawn, for such an amazing job. My husband and I think you are a literal prodigy! Not only is your clinical skill exceptional, but your professionalism and care for your patients are evident in everything you do. I have already recommended several friends and family members, and every single one of them has been thrilled with their experience. You are a phenomenal periodontist, and I am so grateful to be under your care. Thank you again!!!

I called at 8:30 at night in the evening due to an implant falling out. I received a call from someone from the office who was incredibly helpful and got me in this morning at 8:45. The dentist, the assistant, and the staff are all amazing! Dr. Shawn, you saved me. I would definitely recommend family and friends.

I love The Smile Spa and everyone who works here! I’m so glad I found it via recommendations and have been recommending it to others as well. The doctors are both fantastic, very knowledgeable and professional but also very personable and kind, explaining things simply, kindly and without judgement. All the assistants and everyone who works at the front desk are great and I can’t recommend this office enough! I don’t dread going to the dentist anymore and that is pretty priceless.

Comfort and ease. Two words that generally don’t come to mind when you think of going to the dentist but are a PERFECT fit for this office. Dr. Shawn and Dr. Joelle are both very efficient and professional and their assistant Nestor is attentive and precise. Sadie at the front desk helps make scheduling a breeze and is happy to answer any questions I might have, all I have to do is send a text. 10/10 never going to another dentist again!

Dr Shaun, Dr Joelle, and all the good people at The Smile Spa always treat me with care and respect and go “above and beyond” to address my dental needs. They are The Best!

First time being sedated and put to sleep for dental work and totally worth it. Taking out wisdom teeth and doing other dental works in absolute comfort and good hands. Fantastic staff and follow ups.

Very grateful and Happy so Far on my journey to a fresh smile The office was very helpful and kind

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Shawn and the entire team. From the moment I walked in the staff made me feel welcome and comfortable. Dr. Shawn took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt at ease throughout the visit. I genuinely appreciate the care and professionalism every time I've been there. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking a trustworthy and skilled dental team.

Smile Spa provides more than excellent dentistry! I would give them a ten if possible. When you come here you are not just a patient but part of a community of kindness. They host events to bring people together like a hike or ice cream/taco party in summer. I wish all businesses were like The Smile Spa!

I needed a new dentist and read about The Smile Spa. I made a quick appointment and went into a lovely and beautiful office. I realized immediately that the staff was second to none. The young ladies behind the front desk couldn't have been any more professional and friendly. They held my hand throughout the presentation of paperwork I filled out. Next I was seen by a lovely woman who explained everything that was going on with my mouth based on her review of X-rays and looking at my teeth and gums. Joelle Abed Elana's DDS was very thorough and friendly. It was like being with an old friend. She told me both she and her husband, Shawn Nguyen, DDS work side by side and they were both licensed to deliver conscious IV sedation. I was thrilled because she was going to do a deep clean under my gums, place an implant where a tooth had been extracted before COVID-19. She would also give me two crowns where previous crowns were damaged. I was told there probably would be some amount of pain and bleeding after surgery and could last a few days to a week or two. Well I had all of these done and I'm pleased to write that the day of surgery and through the first night and all day the next day I've had zero pain and no bleeding. I was prepared to take Norco, although I don't relish pain medication. Well I haven't even taken a Tylenol and I feel great. Thanks to Drs Joelle and Shawn for their magical dentistry. Thanks also to the entire beautiful staff. They called today to see how I'm doing. They're very attentive and couldn't be more gracious.

Smile spa made me smile ago !!! Since the first phone call through all my process (which took 9 months) all the team was very welcoming and professional ! Dr Sean and his wife took care of me and made me feel like I'm their only patient. Thank you "The Smile Spa" for a very good exp

Ok I'm not gunna lie, when I saw all the 5 stars I didn't think that was possible for a dentist's office and thought it had to be incentivized. But here I am also leaving a 5 star review all on my own, because they absolutely deserve it. I absolutely enjoyed my experience at the smile spa. The entire staff is friendly, caring and knowledgeable. They are up-to-date on all the technological advancements, and they did a thorough job during my initial consultation. But for me personally, the most outstanding thing that they did that I haven't seen any other offices do is provide a cost breakdown prior to doing any procedures. They literally had someone come in to show me on paper their price breakdown without me even asking! The transparency in their billing and their knowledge of how it applies to my dental insurance made me trust them. In a day and age where it feels like there's always hidden fees and unexpected charges in healthcare, it was refreshing to go to a dentist office that understands those frustrations, has honest business practices and is willing to work with the patient that best fits their needs. So glad to have found them; I'll definitely be returning.

These guys tell you they are in network and then, want you to pay in advance and seek reimbursement cause they aren't actually in network. No idea about the quality of their dental care, but their business practices have quite a lot to be desired.

Had my first appointment. I am totally amazed. Took all the stress out of seeing a dentist!! Staff and doctor were friendly and very professional. I was provided with a detailed treatment plan with alternatives. Great news for me - they can do most of the work in one day- unbelievable! Totally recommend.

The Smile Spa is by far the most beautiful, clean, and professional office I've ever been to. Everyone there is extremely friendly, compassionate, and proficient at their jobs. The atmosphere and the kind staff at this office really helped ease any anxiety that I did have coming in to get dental work done. I had to get x-rays, an exam, 4 fillings, and a cleaning. It was a lot of work, and I've never had fillings done before. Dr. Shawn, Dr. Joelle, and the rest of the staff at The Smile Spa helped make the entire process really seamless and as comfortable as possible. I was afraid of the numbing injections, but Dr. Shawn was so gentle that the shots were practically painless. I was beyond surprised, because I've had really painful injections done at other offices in the past (I'm sure many of us have). We also discussed Invisalign treatment, and I was able to get Botox injected into the masseter muscle to help with teeth clenching. Everything was done right there at The Smile Spa! No need to hop around to different offices. I normally can barely drag myself into a dental office, let alone going to two additional places to get Invisalign and Botox. The Smile Spa makes it so easy to get everything done that you need done. If it's related to dental health, they do it all right there! I wouldn't go anywhere else, and I'm so thankful I found them. It's really a unique experience. I'm looking forward to coming back to get my Invisalign trays!

I'm so glad I found The Smile Spa, they have been heaven sent. Doctor Joelle and , Dr. Shawn are truly the most compassionate Doctors ever. They truly care about their patients and the work they perform. I had my veneers done by Doctor Jolle and she was able to get me in and out quick and effectively. My veneers where completed in less than two weeks. After my procedure, Doctor Jolle made sure I was doing good and cared about making sure my veneers felt good. She made sure they felt perfect and comfortable. For my mother, , Dr. Shawn was incredible. Dr. Shawn, did a whole mouth implant on my mother. He maid sure she was 100% comfortable and pain free. We are still waiting on the finish work. Which should take about 3/4 months. But so far my mother is super grateful for the work , Dr. Shawn preformed. And I must add that the who entire staff are angels they look out for their patients and are so warm and welcoming and efficient. I could go on and on about them all. I'm truly grateful. I will post a follow up on my healing as well as my mothers final work.

Never in my wildest dreams did I ever believe I would find a dentist I was not only comfortable with but actually got excited about visiting. The Smile Spa is incredible on so many levels, they don't make you feel like a number, they have genuine passion about their work and their whole staff is just amazing! I am so honored to be able to call them my forever dentist because there's no way I'll go anywhere else, not after finding this gem of a place. After the past 2 weeks, I've had work done that I had put off for far too long but, instead of feeling guilty, they made me feel welcome and so incredibly caring. Thank you to every single person in this office, I appreciate all of you I look forward (genuinely) to my next visit. Vanessa

I had a patient move to this area and is no longer able to see me in Vegas. They asked me for a recommendation of a new dentist around them and the obvious choice was here. Amazing dentists that I know my old patients will love and continue to get high quality care from.

Our 14 year old daughter has been dealing with a mouth injury for almost a year, I finally thought it's time for a permanent solution so I went online to seek a reputable doctor that we felt comfortable with. I cannot put in words how comfortable my family felt at Smile Spa from the moment we stepped in the door. The office is in an amazing and convenient location, every single person that I met during our visits were a joy and so helpful. Dr Joelle was our doctor who performed the procedures and was so helpful. I could tell she was genuinely happy to listen and answer all our questions. I feel so blessed to have had found Smile Spa, my daughter's smile is PERFECT, she hasn't smiled with her teeth in over a year and now she can't stop smiling and her confidence is back. Dr Joelle, your whole team, from the bottom of my family's hearts I can't thank you enough, you are the BEST!!!!

What an amazing state of the art facility. From Christy at the front desk to Dr. Shawn Nguyen I could not have asked for better care and customer service. They were gentle and got me taken care of in a professional and warm environment. I will be recommending them to everyone I know!! Thank you Smile Spa!!

I had a great experience as a first-time customer, and I would refer friends and colleagues. From the moment I booked the appointment, the staff had superior customer service with a smooth process. No hidden charges. They have great integrity and take great pride in their work. The doctor is very hands on and prompt. I never thought I'd look so forward going to see the dentist and got a great goody bag filled with keepsakes. Thanks for an incredible experience! The name Smile Spa says it all.

I highly recommend The Smile Spa! Married dentists, Drs. Joelle and Shawn offer all general and specialized dental services. Their office is state-of-the-art and their goal is for their patients to have a comfortable experience. You will love their office staff too!

Smile Spa is a beautiful office (elegant, clean, and very fancy). Love that every exam room has big windows over looking the luscious green mountain backdrop, what a view to get your teeth cleaned! The atmosphere is very inviting, welcoming, and attentive. Staff and doctors (Dr. Shawn Nguyen and Dr. Joelle Elahad) are so kind and easy to talk to. The staff always does their best to accommodate my schedule. Dr. Nguyen and Dr. Elahad are truly the best with years of experience and are absolute professionals at what they do. I could not trust a better team! Have had great experiences with every visit!

If you are afraid of the dentist like me , please look no further!! I am absolutely terrified of the dentist! But these guys went above and beyond with my service. They really make you feel the most comfortable ever. I can't say enough how much I recommend them! They all are AMAZING!!!

One star for friendly. The other star for clean. The rest is 000. This is a relatively new, local business that I wanted to wholeheartedly support. I had been a patient at the dentist, Dr Shawn's other location in a Thousand Oaks. I get my teeth cleaned every 5-6 months with no history of any dental problems. I value supporting small business. So when I heard of Dr Shawn opening his own practice, I scheduled an appointment. I asked for the cost and was quoted a rate of 150. I blocked out an hour for my visit on my calendar. Cut to the appointment date. I receive a text message asking for new patient information to be filled out. As I start to fill out the forms, I'm increasingly aware of the MANY questions being asked of me as though I'm being questioned for marketing. Annoying. I arrive for my scheduled appointment. I'm greeted with a very friendly receptionist who has to pull my file together. I wait. I wait.Then I'm told about X-rays. Well- I don't need x-rays. I had them from the previous facility. "Oh. Ok." she says. So, I'm waiting. Someone else comes out and we are now 20 minutes into my 1 hour appointment. The assistant- very friendly- escorts me into the patient room. The new office is beautiful. Tall windows looking out into greenery. Everything looks nice, clean, high tech. Great. I'm waiting. Cut to doctor coming in. Me: "Oh congratulations! I'm so happy for you and your wife in your new space!" Doctor Shawn is friendly and smiling and small take ensues while he examines my teeth. He asks about whether I use a night guard. My response "well, not right now. We discussed the idea of that at your other place when I complained about some jaw discomfort but I'm not having that anymore so I didn't think it was really urgent. He then pulls out pictures of his brother and proceeds to tell me about how he had to put crowns on 10 of his brothers teeth from grinding. And that he doesn't want to see me in the same position. Okayyyyy. This is sounding very scary and serious now (which was the intent) He then proceeds to tell me about another option, which is BOTOX injections in the jaw. "But that wears off after 3 months and you can really feel it when it wears off". Okayyyyy. My response, "But im telling you, I'm not feeling any discomfort". His response "well, you don't necessarily have to feel anything". Okayyyyyy. He closes the sales pitch with " Well, it's up to you. You can think about it". 35 minutes have passed into my one hour appointment and nothing but fear and sales have been performed. Dr Shawn gets ready to leave and I prompt him with, "Hey I'm so sorry but I blocked out one hour for this today. How long do you need for my cleaning so that I can make arrangements?" Response: "Oh you're easy. 30 minutes". Okayyyy. The nice, young receptionist comes back into the room moments later with paperwork. She explains to me that the doctor recommends the night guard for 650$ and a deep cleaning for $250. Okayyyy. What happened to my inititial $150 teeth cleaning? Well, she says, "this is what he recommends". The deep teeth cleaning is $250 and I was just told that I was an easy client who needed 30 minutes for cleaning. Huh??!! So why exactly is deep cleaning so urgent now?! So I pause for a few moments to reflect on all the bullshit that I've just been served up and told to eat. "So what do you think? " says the receptionist holding the paperwork. "I want to go home", I said. "You wanna go home?" she says. " Yes. I want to go home" I repeat. "I'm not comfortable here." "I wanted to come to support Dr Shawn in his new business and I can't help but feel like I am being upsold on services that I don't need. And it makes me feel very uncomfortable." So I picked up my purse and I walked out. The following day I received not a phone call, but a mile long text message from the receptionist telling me what a pleasure it was to meet me, blah, blah ,blah, and continuing to serve up bullshit about what I experienced. No phone call from her or the doctor. A text. And they want me to be comfortable stated at the end of the text. Call me old fashioned, but this is not the way you handle people!!!My original 150 teeth cleaning was now estimated at $900. And perhaps some of you would have no problem or objection or even consider challenging the situation. But I know my body. And I know my health. And I know my teeth. I'm not in any pain. I don't have special needs in the dental department and the 40 minutes I spent in that office was complete bullshit. Unfortunately Dr Shawn at the Smile Spa was a much better employee at his previous place than he is a business owner.

"Dentist" nor "Doctor" seems an honorable enough title for this wife/husband team!! I had the PLEASURE of having a veneer-cracking emergency, as it led me to Dr. Joelle. Prepare for a beyond-pleasant staff, lovely and sunny views from the chair (*weather permitting), and most importantly (*to me) PERFECTION and PRIDE in her work. She/The team offer many other services as well, all competitively priced. I declare her my new Mouth Wizard (*working title) for life. A trillion thank yous to Mouth Wizard Joelle and her kind and talented team for my two front teeth. ...Mouth Santa? I'll keep working on it.

I have had veneers now on my two front teeth for about 10 years , While eating a bite of food in the kitchen one evening my front veneer on my left tooth split in half . I felt so vulnerable and grateful for masks at this pointI called the office of where I had it done in the past and the Doctor moved to New York. I didn't know who to trust and began calling around and reached out to my Facebook group Conejo Valley Moms. I got a lot of responses and did some investigation and prayed about it. I decided to put my faith and trust in the Smile Spa . When I met the front desk staff and Dr.Joelle I instantly knew it was going to be great . They were so so helpful and happy to answer all of my questions. That day I got two temporary veneers made , they looked so natural, I could hardly wait to get the permanent ones . About two weeks later the permanent ones were ready . She wouldn't put the permanent ones in unless I absolutely loved them , she said she wants me to be happy with them . They ended up being perfect , the color the shape , the way they lined up and were flush with my other teeth . The entire procedure was virtually painless . I even treated my teeth to the zoom whitening. My smile looks so beautiful and I am so happy for the smile spa . The entire staff is the best . It is also so beautiful and clean and the decor is amazing as a side note but the most important is any thing is the care , and the care was 5 stars

Stumbled upon the dental office by accident and since I knew I needed a cleaning I decided to come in. Once I entered the office, the staff immediately greeted me and were so welcoming. The waiting room itself was a sight to behold. The staff then led me inside and I was greeted the doctors. Dr. Joelle and Dr. Shawn made me feel at ease and throughout the process they would stop and explain certain things. Once the exam was completed, Dr. Joelle explained to me in detail what treatment I needed. She would always make sure that I understood everything that she was explaining while also answering any of the questions I had. The staff and doctor interaction was so great to see as they seem to be in sync with one another. As I was leaving, Dr. Shawn stopped by to say goodbye to me. That little touch made the dental visit such an amazing experience to have not just one of the doctors but both doctors care. One of the best dental experiences I have had in a long time.

The Nguyen and Elahad are some of the nicest and easy going dentists I've met. They have created a beautiful modern space for all your dental needs. I've never felt so at ease at a dental office before. Highly recommend!

Dr. Joelle & Dr. Shawn are the most professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, caring and well-rounded dentist I have ever met. They truly are specialists of their craft! I came in to get my wisdom teeth removed, an exam and cleaning. Dr. Joelle numbed me and it was painless. Dr. Shawn had my wisdom teeth out within two minutes or less. The Smile Spa delivers the most cutting edge dental technology and is so updated on modern dentistry. The office was clean, organized and the staff were extremely welcoming and comforting. I am really picky about my teeth and Dr. Joelle always seems to exceed on perfectionism. Nestor, their dental assistant, was very helpful in reducing my fear of getting my teeth removed. I would honestly recommend all my family and friends to come to The Smile Spa. I've been to many offices and I'm so happy and relieved I found them. Thank you Dr's & Staff for such an amazing experience!!!!

So today I had a follow-up visit today with Dr Nguyen for my front tooth implant. First of all I LOVE their office space. It seems more like an ad agency than a medical office. Very edgy/inviting. My overall experience today was, once again absolutely delightful. Christine greeted me at the front desk and helped me breeze through some forms. Nestor then took some xrays/scans. Both were courteous and professional. Then Dr Nguyen put me at immediate ease -- explaining the procedure for the day, his approach, and what I should expect. He then numbed me up nicely and methodically took care of business. I was in and out probably 45 minutes. He said all went well. And... I felt virtually no pain. On my way out Sadie, who was covering the front desk booked me a follow up appointment, then showed me to the elevator. All in all, a wonderful visit. Thx Dr Shawn! You and your entire staff ROCKS!

My dentist retired and I wasn't comfortable with the Dentist that bought his practice. I saw a new Dental office that was recommended on ND so I made an appt at the Smile Spa . The office is owned by a young husband and wife team. Dr Joelle Abedad and Dr Shawn Nguyen The office is state of the art, spotless and less than 10 minutes from home. First appointment I arrived and the staff was warmly welcoming. Full CT was done and my appt with Dr Joelle for evaluation was amazing ! I needed a lot of work done due to not having care during 2 years of Covid and Dr Joelle truly cared for my dental health . Everything was explained as well as cost covered benefits and out of pocket expense. I was so impressed that I had my husband make an appt with Dr Shawn for an issue with an old dental bridge. Dr Shawn was equally professional and caring and fixed his dental bridge. I can't say enough great things about The Smile Spa. I can't imagine anyone not being happy with the care at this office . If you are looking for a new caring professional dentist team don't hesitate..call them for a consult !

Ive been looking for a new Dentist for the last year and i happen to come across Dr. Joelle and her husband's practice and I could not be any happier! I called made an appointment and came in for a check up and exam. The office is Very modern and up to date with their equipment as well. My favorite part was the view in the exam room! Nice touch! Dr. Joelle was very thorough with the examination and you can tell she cares about your well being and health. Im definitely coming back to get some work done and I definitely recommend this office and the doctors to everyone

All the staffs and Dr very nice Highly recommend Reasonable price too I find my new dentist Very satisfied

Family owned business with great personalities , it's clean and neat , I heard many good things about them , definitely trying this place out

Fantastic Team ! Highly recommended. Sadie, Christine, Nestor & the amazing Doctors are by far the best dentist experience anyone can ask for. Family owned business. That actually cares about their clients well being. Thank You for such a great experience.

I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Dr. Joelle and Dr. Shawn to get some work done. I have never had a better experience at the dentist than I have at The Smile Spa. Everyone was welcoming and helpful from the minute I got there until my procedure was over. I wanted to be sedated for my procedure and I felt comfortable and safe due to the collective experience that Dr. Joelle and Dr. Shawn have with dental procedures. I'm so glad that I found a dental office and team that I can trust!

The office was so accommodating with my busy schedule, the facility was clean and state-of-the-art. Dr. Joelle made sure I was comfortable the whole time during my procedure- no pain at all. You can tell that she really has a knack for patient care- she has great bedside manner. I truly can't recommend this office enough! I'll be coming back for sure.

Makes going to the dentist an enjoyable experience! The office is so beautiful and clean and both Dr. Joelle and Shawn go out of their way to make you feel welcome, heard, and supported through the dental work. Cannot recommend enough!

The team was so accommodating to my schedule. Everyone was really nice. I had a tooth that was infected and Dr Joelle came in after hours to help me out! Thank you so much! You have a patient for life!
