The staff & Dr Makwana are truly amazing!!! I went in needing an emergency procedure, and everything went great! The scheduling of the appointment was super fast and easy, the intake process was smooth and the procedure was even faster!! One of the best experiences I’ve had so far! I can’t thank and appreciate everyone in the office enough!!

I really do appreciate not just the Dentist but all the associates at this practice in San Marcos. I’ve had exams, teeth extracted, crown, and now two implants. I’m seventy years so believe me I’d have been terrified if I’d gone anywhere else. Obviously I let my teeth go for a long time before I found I-Deal Dental, they made me feel comfortable and not awkward that I’d neglected care of my teeth. Highly recommend this group!!!

They were able to get me in within 1 day and were very efficient. Doctor M was amazing. I didn’t feel anything during surgery, and today I do not have much pain. The whole staff was courteous and made sure you were comfortable. Doctor M explained the procedure and he and his staff went through after care procedures I need to follow. Great place and highly recommend Ideal Dental.

I started going to ideal last December and I absolutely love the staff and Dr. Mac is the best very caring and patient talks you through the process of whatever he is doing and is very caring on any pain you start feeling he will stop and make sure they numb you up appropriately!

Thank you Ideal Dental San Marcos for your patience with me and helping me be comfortable with being at the dentist. Being a military brat had its perks, but having to go to a military dentist was not fun when I was younger. I admit I was scared and my times ant the dentist when I was younger still carried on with me. Dr. Makwana assured me I would be just fine and his staff was so helpful too in making sure I was taken care of. Laura, the hygienist, took care of me too & explained everything to me. Thank you all again for helping me with my fear of going to the dentist. 🩷

I am horribly scared of dentist from past experiences, but this place made all those fear melt away. They were attentive to my needs and emotions. The doctor listened to me and heard me when I expressed concerns about being numbed up. The staff were all super friendly and nice.

Love this dental office!! Everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Mac is AWESOME!! Very personable and caring. I really don’t like going to the dentist, but who does? I have anxiety every time. Dr. Mac made me feel comfortable and calmer. My anxiety is the numbing needle. But I didn’t feel a thing. Thanks Dr. Mac. I’ll be back if need be. Lisa Hyzy.

I have had to have some extensive dental work done recently. I love the staff and ease of the whole process! From scheduling my visits, having a Saturday option, friendliness, cleanliness, and care…all the staff is very professional. Dr Mak takes the time to explain what the issues are, options to getting them fixed and is very personable. He remembers my name, my family and adds just the best personal touch! I HIGHLY recommend Dr Mak and his staff at Ideal Dental in San Marcos TX!!

5 stars from check in to check out. This was not my first appointment. When you have an office that consistently gives you great service, you know you’ve found your new dental home. Dr. Mak is the kindest, gentlest dentist I have been to, and the office staff & assistants are wonderful♡

The staff at Ideal Dental of San Marcos are amazing. The staff were very professional and attentive. The Dentist that I had, Bhavik Makwana, was great. He had me at ease almost immediately. He listened to my needs, addressed them directly and he made the tooth extraction that I needed painless. I was so impressed with the staff I signed up for a year’s membership. Bhavik is definitely my dentist from now on!

So I was having a tooth ache and my face was swollen and I was in pain . This is the 1st time I have been to this establishment since my normal Dentist just retired last month . So with no recommendation from friends or colleagues I looked for different places around San Marcos this popped up but I had to check to see if they would take my insurance and sure enough they did . I was able to get in and seen and x-rays done and the staff was super friendly

I had to come in for an emergency extraction. Not where I wanted to be or what I wanted to be doing with my morning. The whole
Staff was kind and made me feel comfortable. I didn’t think you could have a positive experience getting teeth pulled but these guys were the best. I might not avoid the dentist anymore. -

For an uninsured person, The pricing was fair and more than affordable for the basic care I needed. Staff was very friendly and interior was clean and comforting. Great experience for my first time back at the dentist in a few years. Will be back for my next check up!
