I recently took my five-year-old daughter to this dentist, and she had a wonderful time. The staff was extremely friendly and provided exceptional support for her, even though she was apprehensive. They have a designated play area for children in the waiting room, complete with a television playing cartoons. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I highly recommend this dentist.

Questions People Ask

Does Dr. Joel Chul Ju Kim take Denti-Cal?

Yes. This dentist appears in the state's published list of enrolled Denti-Cal providers. Taking the coverage and having an opening are two different things, so still call ahead.

How do I make an appointment?

Call (909) 356-6852 and say you have Medi-Cal dental. Or use the form on this page. Your request goes to the office if it takes requests here, and to our team if it does not. Nobody else gets it.

What will it cost me?

For most Denti-Cal covered treatment there is no copay. If the office suggests something the program does not cover, ask for the price in writing before you agree.
