What Our Patients Say About Us
I was so nervous at the thought of having to change dentists, but felt immediately at ease by the friendly staff at Millennium Dental.
Dr.Baha did a great job explaining what he was doing to work on and how he intended to do it. By the time my procedure was over, I realized I worried for nothing!
I appreciated his explanations, patience, and expertise. I am completely satisfied with my care and overall experience, and actually look forward to my next visit.
Mrs. E. Dollick
San Diego
Hands down the best dentist I have ever been to!!
Dr.Baha makes dental visits easy and pain-free.
The office is clean, people are courteous, the procedures and techniques are modern and well explained.
Dr.Baha gives you the feeling that he is 100% focused on you and your needs, unlike some dentists that seem to run from one patient to another while you sit in the chair waiting. I would recommend his practice to anyone.
Noel M.
Encinitas
Dr.Baha is the most caring and gentle dentist I’ve ever known. I always feel secure and in his ‘golden’ hands. A master an an artist of his craft.
His friendly, mature and qualified staff create an atmosphere of relaxation.
I highly recommend his office.
Dr. Inna Goldberg

Dr.Baha is an Artist!
He gave me my smile back when I thought there was no hope.
He’s the best.
