Patient Reviews

Patient reviews on third party sites such as RateMDs or Yelp can give valuable feedback about dentists and dental practices. At Tappuni Dental, we use this public feedback together with private feedback from our patients to continuously improve our practice and maintain our patient focus.

Tappuni Dental, which opened its doors in 2011, has a few reviews on Google Places and RateMDs. We are very grateful for the positive feedback from our patients.

Before opening her own practice, Dr. Tappuni worked as a dentist in the San Francisco Bay Area, during which time she received many reviews from her patients at Family Dental in Foster City. Family Dental is a practice with a team of over a dozen dentists - making it a great place to interact with and learn from other dentists, but challenging to locate the reviews that specifically pertain to Dr. Tappuni. We have extracted the Demand Force reviews (typos and all) that specifically mention Dr. Tappuni and reprinted them below for your convenience. Enjoy!

“Dr. Tappuni was (as usual) very caring and professinal.”
Family Dental has been consistent in providing a positive, caring, and supportive environment.

“Regular cleaning”
I come frequently for cleanings as I drink tea which produces much staining. Dr. Tappuni pays such attention to detail in order to remove all of my stains.

“Having a Cap installed”
If you can enjoy haveing a cap placed, i did. Dr. Tappuni was skilled in her practical application of mounting the cap, and, she took the time to make sure everything fit perfectly and that I was happy with the result. I should not leave out that Dr. Javidan did the initial root canal with skill and understanding (I was a bit nervous). Very good experience.

“Excellent”
Dr. Tappuni has been my dentist for a couple of years now and I could not be happier. Granted, I have not needed to have a huge amount of work done in my mouth, but everything that she has done has been problem free. She is also really nice, such that I actually look forward to going to the dentist.

“very professional”
I appreciate not only the wide range of dental specialties all under one roof ("...one stop shopping"), but also that the practice remains current with all of the latest technology. At the end of the day, however, it is one's relationship with their respective dentist that defines the experience. Tara Tappuni is the consumate professional...and very patient with my many questions. (You've noted by name below as "d. bruces" - not certain who that is...but I'm D. Bruce Shelton.)

“What a Great Place”
I think this is such a wonderful place. The receptionist was super sweet and she could tell I was tired and offered me water. Dr. Tappuni is always so gentle with me since she knows I am scared of the dentist and she pays extra attention to me.

“Consistently friendly, professional and gentle”
Both my husband and I have switched to Family Dental. The staff is incredibly friendly, professional and gentle. In particular, we're both very impressed with Dr. Tappuni who always remembers our previous conversation and is a genuinely caring person. Neither my husband nor I have ever had to wait to been seen and really appreciate the email reminders rather than postcards and phone calls. FD has state of the art equipment, a clean, bright and relaxing atmosphere. Also, it's nice to be distracted by your own personal television.

“5 Stars”
I was a New Kid in Town fresh from LA looking for a trustworthy dentist to help me with basic cosmetic dentistry. Through some other medical professional I obtained the name of Dr. Tara Tappuni. First she LISTENED to what I wanted, then she INFORMED me about my options then we DISCUSSED the possibilities then she gave me her RECOMMENDATION. Of particular significance was that she was realistic in picking out the color "shade" of my "new teeth" so that they looked whiter and healthier but not so white that they looked like they were glowing in the dark. I also came to her with some serious medical baggage which concerned me and she followed up so methodically with my former physicians that when she commenced the dental work I was 100% confident in her abilities. The cosmetic result seems to be excellent but then a few weeks later I needed unrelated fairly routine dental work performed and I decided to trust her with it. Candidly, I thought she was too nice and too focused on the cosmetic aspects of dentistry to be an excellent day-to-day dentist but I was wrong --- she is just that thorough and compassionate --- and her dental work was painless and successful. I have referred several people to her and each has thanked me profusely. They take all types of insurance and her staff does all the paperwork for you making it virtually pain free.
