Key Takeaways

• Family-owned since 1986 with more than 40 years of serving Southern California.
• Ten locations across Los Angeles and Ventura counties make dental care more convenient.

Looking for a dental office that feels welcoming, explains your options clearly and makes every visit easier from start to finish?

Finding a dentist isn't simply about choosing the closest office. You're trusting a team with your health, your comfort and your family for years to come. That is why many patients look beyond the services a practice offers and pay closer attention to how they're treated before, during and after every appointment.

For more than four decades, we have believed that great dental care begins with listening. Whether someone visits us for a routine cleaning, emergency treatment, cosmetic dentistry or dental implants, our goal stays the same: provide quality care without pressure, explain every recommendation clearly and make each visit as convenient as possible. Those values continue to shape what makes Clove Dental different today.

Four Decades, One Family, One Philosophy

Many dental groups grow by purchasing practices across different cities. While there's nothing wrong with expansion, patients wonder whether the experience stays consistent.

At Clove Dental, our story began in 1986 when Dr. Anish Puri's father opened the original practice in Oxnard. Today, Dr. Anish Puri continues that same family tradition after earning his DDS from the University of Southern California.

Although dentistry has changed dramatically over the years, one thing hasn't changed.

We believe patients deserve to understand every treatment before making a decision. That means taking time to answer questions, discussing costs upfront whenever possible and recommending care based on what's best for the patient, not what's most expensive.

Why Patients Can Get Nearly Everything They Need Without Leaving the Clove Dental Network

One appointment shouldn't turn into visits to three different offices whenever it can be avoided. That is why Clove Dental provides a wide range of services across its network, including-

• Preventive dentistry
• Cosmetic dentistry
• Invisalign and orthodontics
• Root canal treatment
• Dental implants
• Wisdom teeth removal
• Periodontal care
• Pediatric dentistry
• Emergency dental care
• IV and sleep sedation

For many patients, this means fewer referrals, better communication between providers and a more comfortable experience from beginning to end.

Ten Locations, One Standard of Care

Life gets busy. Work schedules change. Families move. Children grow up.

Having access to multiple locations makes it easier to continue seeing a team you already know and trust.

Clove Dental has ten offices in Los Angeles and Ventura County, providing patients flexibility without a lack of consistency. Whether you're scheduling preventive care in Camarillo, cosmetic treatment in Beverly Hills or an emergency visit in Oxnard, you'll find the same patient-first approach throughout the network.

Making Dental Care Easier Before You Even Sit in the Chair

A great dental visit starts long before treatment begins. We have worked to remove many of the small frustrations that keep people from scheduling appointments. Patients appreciate conveniences such as-

• Help understanding dental insurance benefits.
• Claim filing on their behalf.
• The Clove Care Plan for patients without insurance.
• Online scheduling through the Clove DDS App.
• Treatment tracking and prescription access.
• Video consultations when appropriate.
• Free parking at our locations.
• Friendly appointment reminders.

These details may seem small individually, but together they make dental care easier to fit into everyday life.

Technology That Helps Patients Stay Connected Between Visits

Technology should make healthcare simpler, not more complicated.

The Clove DDS App allows patients to stay connected beyond the dental chair by making it easier to schedule appointments, review treatment plans, access prescriptions and communicate with our team.

Inside the office, digital technology also helps us evaluate oral health, explain treatment options more clearly and keep accurate records across all ten locations.

Technology supports better conversations. It never replaces them.

Trust That's Built Visit After Visit, Not Appointment by Appointment

Trust isn't created by a single successful procedure. This occurs when patients feel assured that they will get an honest answer each time they enter your office.

We have many families with us for years because we take the time to explain all recommendations, answer questions without rushing and respect their decisions. We don't just need to finish up the treatment today. We want to help patients protect their oral health for decades.

More than 3,000 five-star Google reviews reflect those long-term relationships and the confidence patients continue to place in our team.

What Makes Clove Dental Different Is That Every Improvement Starts With the Patient

Dentistry continues to evolve, but our purpose remains the same. Every new location, every piece of technology, every service we introduce, and every improvement we make is guided by one question:

Will this make dental care easier and better for our patients?

That patient-first mindset has shaped Clove Dental since 1986 and continues to guide how we care for every person who walks through our doors.
