Sinclair Smiles - Encinitas

Fantastic experience: Great dental care Ileana was wonderful cleaning and taking care of my teeth.

Fantastic experience: Dr Sinclair was highly recommended by a close friend. My initial examination was the most thorough and the best I have ever received. I was unaware that a new digital scanning technology is available along with the complete set of X-rays. This scanning technology allowed me to see very clearly what areas might need care. She then proceeded to identify and chart all the different types of dental repairs I have had so as to best address all the possible concerns and areas to watch over. A crown replacement was recommended and from past experience if not addressed loss of the underlying tooth is very likely. This 3D technology allowed her to make the crown in the office (no need for a temporary and a return visit). She skillfully replaced the crown and I am happy to report no residual pain or side effects. Everyone in the office is friendly, helpful and most importantly professional. I am very glad to have such a resource I can trust. I continue to have the best of results from my continued care for 2 years with Dr. Sinclair. I am particularly pleased with a topical silver treatment on a problematic wisdom tooth. It helps to prevent a suspected cavity and will probably save the tooth. Thank you Dr. Sinclair.

Fantastic experience: This place was recommended to me 6 years ago and I’ve been a customer ever since. My teeth feel great! Love the doctor, and all the staff. Very friendly and detail oriented.

Fantastic experience: Sinclair Smiles is the best! Happy to have my dental care in their capable hands.

Fantastic experience: I was pretty nervous about having to get a crown to replace a very old, deep filling. The team at Sinclair smiles did an amazing job of making the experience as soothing and painless as possible. They provided me with ‘Neuro-Calm’ headphones and an eye mask to calm me while in the chair. I was greatly impressed by their speed, accuracy and professionalism. My tooth was 3D scanned with the new one cut via CAD-CAM on the spot! Incredible.

Fantastic experience: Best dentist ever! I moved away from Encinitas and have been disappointed with the dentists in my new area. While visiting Los Angeles, I unexpectedly needed urgent dental care, and not only did Sinclair Smiles accommodate me on short notice, they reminded me what truly exceptional dentistry looks like. Their professionalism, kindness, and quality of care is anlways outstanding. The trip to Encinitas was worth the time and I may just commute here for all of my dental needs from now on!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff. Dr Sinclair took the time to explain what she thought was happening with my tooth and what the next step should be. I felt very comfortable as a new patient.

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience — for several years! The office is modern, clean, and very comfortable. Additionally, the music is always on point, which is a thoughtful touch given the nature of the dental experience. The team is always on time, personable and professional — they are incredible. The services are done very well — always gentle and as comfortable as possible.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service from professionals who listen.

Fantastic experience: Very professional atmosphere, from the moment we walked in; a very welcoming staff, clean area. Their team always ready to assist us, well informed. Has always provide us with great dental services, my girls always leaves with a great experience, and is never a problem when I tell them we are going back for a dental visit, instead they are looking forward to it.

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed meeting a few times a year with my hygienist for tooth cleaning and dental inspection with Dr Sinclair in this calm and well equipped dentist practice. I appreciate everyone for their combination of professionalism and personal attunement. I subscribed to their preventive approach and come for three cleanings a year. I highly recommend this dentist practice.

Fantastic experience: Sinclair Smiles is an all around excellent dental practice. Having grown up under the scrutiny of parents as Dentists, I’ve seen a dental office or two, and I have to say that everything about Sinclair Smiles lives up to the rating. Top tier service, guidance, and care. I would, and have, recommended this team to anyone looking for a great dentist. Update; my wife is terrified of the dentist; I got her to see Dr. Sinclair’s team, and she said it was the most comfortable she’s ever been at a dentist appointment.

Fantastic experience: This is an all-pro dentist office. Caring patient care of patients is outstanding. They’re thorough and will NOT take advantage of you. They want to keep you as a long term client, not a one time payday. The hygienists (Iliana) is the best.

Fantastic experience: Came in as an emergency with a broken tooth, they fit me in same day. After a really traumatizing experience at another dentist, I was very worried to go through something like that again but that couldn’t have been further from my experience here. Everyone was friendly, attentive, caring and professional. They were able to fix my tooth painlessly in less than 2 hours from arrival with no pain or discomfort at all following the appointment. I’ve already told several people about my experience and referred them, highly recommend if you’re looking for a dentist that is capable and kind.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely a 5-star experience! The office was clean, calm, and welcoming from the start. Dr. Sinclair took the time to sit down with me, listen, and explain the entire visit—acknowledging my dental history (the good, bad, and scary) with empathy. They were incredibly thorough, gentle with my low pain tolerance and dental anxiety, and very helpful in navigating my insurance and clearly outlining costs ahead of time. Every staff member was professional, kind, and clearly well-trained. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I came in today with a chipped front tooth. Dr. Sinclair and her team immediately put me at ease. She meticulously matched the color of my front tooth with my surrounding teeth to produce a natural smile. Dr. Sinclair’s attention to detail and expertise really made a difference. I left today feeling confident with my smile. I highly recommend Dr. Sinclair and her team. Thank you!

Negative experience: Nice enough staff but they told me they accepted my insurance and I was in-network. My insurance was accepted but not “in-network” so I got stuck with a hefty bill. Sneaky billing. I wouldn’t have gone to them in the first place if I was actually “covered”. My bad for not doing my due diligence on double checking and just going with what they said. I don’t think they accept insurance anymore. I will tell everyone I know to avoid them and I’ve been in Encinitas long before they were ever here. Good luck.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Sinclair and her team are top notch. They are warm, personal, professional, and skilled. They do a great job of treating dental issues, while being appropriately conservative as needed. I've loved my experience with them and I refer friends and family to them regularly. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Superior dental care. Plus nice efficient support staff.

Fantastic experience: Sinclair Smiles really cares! I have super sensitive teeth and getting cleanings is stressful and painful. Sinclair Smiles found a numbing rinse for me. A quick rinse just before cleaning and my experience was enjoyable! Thank you Sinclair Smiles!

Note: I was told by another dentist that I had several cavities. I didnt like the cleaniness of the office and the staff turnover so I went to Sinclair for a 2nd opinion and I had not cavities.
