Every aspect of your visit is carefully designed to provide comfort and confidence whether you’re here for a regular check-up or asleep for more complex treatment.

We specialize in family dentistry, intravenous sedation, helping people overcome their dental fears and orthodontics.

Friendly people, very prompt even when I was late
Dr. Holms is the best dentist I have ever had. I drive an hour to my dental appointments because I can't find another dental office or dentist that is as gentle and caring as he is.
I’ve always gotten great dental service from the dentists, hygienists, and office staff at A.R.D. Always pleasant and cheerful, highly skilled & professional. Almost makes going to the dentist fun. Have been with A.R.D. since 2009 ( I think). I can’t imagine going to another dental office.
This is one of the best dental offices in Rancho Cordova. This office has been treating patients for over 40 years and have experienced just about everything. THEY SPECIALIZE IN PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. If you have a loved one who needs a little extra love to see the dentist, this place is it. They also take 1 type of medi-cal dental insurance and that's HealthNet GMC Program. Otherwise you will need a PPO or HMO plan. Their prices out of pocket aren't bad either $680 for 3 small fillings, a crown. They do payment plans, and work with you financially to get the care you need. They are strict on the health insurance they take but if you have the right insurance or want to pay for upper class dental care, this is the spot.
I’ve been going here for 20+ years. I had the best hygienist - Shiela - for 18 of those years! After she left I was nervous about how the next one would be. So far, so good 👍🏼. Very caring and compassionate people. AND they just got a support puppy for the office for patients that need some support. What a great idea!!!
Had my cleaning today and Karen is so gentle. She's also very effective
I love this office. Everyone is so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They are mindful of my time too running on schedule which I greatly appreciate. Karen is an awesome hygienist she has been cleaning my teeth for 18 years.
I’ve been to numerous dentists in the 26 years I’ve lived here in Sacramento and by far Dr Holm at American River Dental has been the kindest, funniest and most gentle dentist I’ve met. Along with Karen who’s been my dental hygienist - it would be inconceivable to even think of going elsewhere!
I just had 4 wisdom teeth extractions on Friday by Dr. Soltani and his amazing assistant! I cannot recommend them enough 🙂 super kind, patient, understanding, and they actually care about your experience. The front office is also so kind and helpful, great at explaining everything.
I have an adult autistic son and I have been coming here for years. Shelley handles the admin part and is very professional and easy to work with. We have to have his procedures done at the hospital and every experience has been exceptional. The staff are all super friendly and accommodating. It always eases my anxiety. Dr. Soltani is a great dentist, he is kind and thorough in his his explanations and his work. I would never go anywhere else.
American River is the best, Dr Soltani is the best dentist I have ever seen. Office staff is always helpful and friendly
Incredible experience. Took me right in very professional staff. Very welcoming. Honest people. They listened to me. I found a great Dentist
My appointment was quick and my doctor didn't feel the need to upsell me on services. My doctor listened to my concerns and responded accordingly.
Dr. Mann, was very Professional and gentle and explained every procedure before preforming a crown preparation.
Always a pleasure....🫶🫶🫶
Everyone is so friendly!!! The fish tank is beautiful and it’s very clean and smells nice
Very nice and respectful staff.
We are thankful for the care and dedication to our child's needs. Their team is awesome and totally recommend for kids on the spectrum.
Dr. Soltani and his team are wonderful. After trying three different dentists for our adult son with disabilities we have found a place that really knows how to support dental care for him. No other dentist could do the repair work without anesthesia that Dr. Soltani has done. He is highly skilled, quick, thorough, proficient but encouraging and empathetic dentist with a cadre of skilled assistants that make the work seem easy where before it was impossible. Forever grateful for saving our sons teeth after every other dentist was unable to or just said pull them out.
