I hadn't seen a dentist in almost eight years and was terrified to go back. Dr. Ramos and the team never once made me feel bad about it, they just got me a plan and walked me through every step.

About Us
Maple Ridge Dental opened its doors on Sahara Ave in 2009 with a simple goal: treat patients the way we'd want our own families treated. We're still family-owned today, and most of our team has been with us for over a decade.
We built this practice for people who've had bad dental experiences elsewhere β anxious patients, folks who put off care for years, and families who just want an honest dentist nearby.
Testimonials
Real customers. Real results.
I hadn't seen a dentist in almost eight years and was terrified to go back. Dr. Ramos and the team never once made me feel bad about it, they just got me a plan and walked me through every step.
Got a same-day appointment for a cracked molar on a Friday afternoon and they still managed to fit me in. Painless, fast, and the front desk explained my insurance coverage before I even sat down.
My kids actually ask to go to the dentist now. The hygienists are patient with my 6-year-old and the office doesn't feel clinical or scary like our old dentist's.
