Services
Dentistry for me extends far beyond treating teeth - it involves me working and communicating with people and helping improve their lives. I have followed this 'holistic' philosophy since graduating from The National University in my hometown of Cordoba, Argentina, in 1991.

After graduating dental school, I quickly realized the boundaries that existed between doctors and patients and how it was detrimental to promoting health, and this is why I took the right steps to remove any barriers in communication and focused my efforts on building strong client-based relationships.
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions patients have about dentistry and oral health issues. If you have any other questions, or would like to schedule an appointment, we would love to hear from you. Some dental services can be very costly. Having basic dental coverage can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars every year, especially if you have multiple beneficiaries in your household.
At Ablantis Dental believe that it is better to identify any upcoming tooth problems in advance and to provide the necessary treatment to ensure that your teeth stay healthy and attractive. Preventive dentistry near you is dental care that helps maintain good oral health. It's a combination of regular dental check-ups along with developing good habits like brushing and flossing.
At Ablantis Dental, the main focus of our professional team is to ensure our patients stay away from the oral problems that can hurt their teeth & gums. Having regular dental checkups & indulging in Cleanings & Exams preventive dentistry treatment gives an opportunity to our doctors for identifying the mouse diseases in the starting stages making sure immediate treatment becomes a possibility.
At Ablantis Dental, we suggest the patients see the dentist regularly for providing proper care to their teeth & gums. Our preventive dentistry treatment also includes dental x-rays in Encinitas that help in diagnosing any problem in the inner part of the teeth & lower portion in the jawbones. Using this technology, our team succeeded in checking the teeth roots in a much better way.

Dr. Claudia Cortadi is both kind & heart-centered as well as extremely knowledgeable, creative, up-to-date and efficient in addressing dental issues. She is the first dentist I have found who has been able to resolve a dental issue no one else had been able to resolve--for decades. She also recently met me in her office--on her day off--to very kindly and adeptly resolve a dental issue. Dr. Cortadi's staff is very kind and helpful, and the atmosphere is very positive! The best dental practice I've ever been to!

Without any doubt, Ablantis Dental and specifically Dr Cortadi is the best
dental office I have ever been to . She utilizes the latest in high tech equipment to complete dental procedures in a short time. The staff are very welcoming and carry on their duties with smiles. The attitude here is a direct result of the superb all female connection to Dr Cortadi's leadership and professionalism.

The most amazing dentist ever! I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr cordati and her staff. I have a lot of fear with dentists and they have never made me feel bad and have always taken the time to make sure that I'm comfortable. I would give them 10 Stars if I could

I have had two appointments with Dr. Nice, and both have been excellent in every way. I felt comfortable and that I was in good hands. The whole team was professional, caring, and friendly. Dr. Nice is extremely knowledgeable, focused and meticulous in his work, yet is able to create a warm and fun atmosphere. It’s such a pleasure to visit an office where all the staff treats each other and the patients with kindness and respect. Once you go there, you won’t want to go anywhere else!

Dr cordati is very knowledgeable and up on the latest holistic concerns about dental materials and sensitivities. She diagnosed and is treating something the prior dentist missed!
She also has the latest xray technology and a friendly helpful staff. A big bonus is that she takes my insurance.
I’m so lucky to have Dr Cordati as my dentist!

I'm a very discerning dental patient. My wife would say picky. I've been through a number of dentists and can say my first visit with Dr. Cortadi and staff went beyond any previous experience. Thorough, professional, and patient. They spent a good deal of time and resources to show me the condition of my teeth and how to keep them going as long as I do. I am particularly grateful for Dr. Cortadi's diagnostic rigor and conservative, precuationary approach to dental maintenance.
So far, I hope to remain their patient. Thank Ablantis Dental.

Nobody likes going to the dentist. Especially when it's not just an in-and-out cleaning. I had to go in for a filling and a deep cleaning today. Everyone at this office is kind and personable. Dr. Cortadi is fantastic at what she does and thorough in explaining what she is doing. Her staff was involved and helpful throughout the process. Michelle, the hygienist is equally as amazing. All were patient and kind, even taking a moment to massage my jaw knowing it's uncomfortable to keep your mouth open for an extended time. As I said, no one wants to go to the dentist.

This dental office does okay dental work but the front staffs they need lessons in how to interact with the public (especially people with high IQ). They are always too full of themselves talking about planning their next vacation, getting their hair and nails done monthly, paying too much for a gym membership, going to the gym getting in shape because they feel overweight?!. Does being a dental staffs getting paid that much to relish themselves in inordinate. I found most the smart-alec type, overly competitive, condescending, insulting, and downright rude even in every day, simple conversation

Listen..I absolutely hate going to the dentist. I avoid them at all cost because of previous bad experiences.

But that's not the case today! I am extremely happy to report that I've had the best experience ever with Dr. C and MJ. They both were extremely thorough, and provided me with important tips to improve my dental game. If you're like me, and are hesitant on going to the dentist, give these guys a try. I promise you'll be satisfied. I've got some work to do but I couldn't be happier with my visit today. I'm looking forward to coming back for my follow

Honestly, this is the very best dental offices and dental services that I have ever experienced throughout my whole life. I must say that every detail is perfect and couldn't be better. I have been sticking with this office no matter my insurance or no matter their location. They used to be in Solana Beach a long time ago. I was less than 5 minutes drive. Now I am downtown and they moved to Encinitas and I will make the drive. It's worth it. I briefly shopped around and spent a few years switching dentists after every appointment until I found Ablantis and Dr. Cordati and her crew. 5

Dr. Cortadi and her team are outstanding. I just saw her today for a filling which was an unexpectedly soothing and calming event. The whole experience took only 25 minutes and was completely painless. She even had me laughing most of the time. And I'm terrified of needles! I was blown away at the level of service and professionalism. I highly recommend Dr. Cortadi for all your dental needs.

Claudia and her staff are the best. She has designed numerous crowns and veneers for me, and recently provided me with a hydrogen peroxide based gel treatment for deep pockets. I was able to reduce all but a few 4 and 5's to 1,2, and 3's by using the gel that they recommended in my custom trays every day for 15 minutes. I get compliments every day for how beautiful my teeth are. All of the women who work there are professional, courteous, and smart about the latest most effective ways to restore and maintain health in my teeth and gums.

I was at this dental office awhile back after I received numerous emails offering a good package for cleaning/x-rays etc., almost on a daily basis. After awhile I finally called and made an appointment.
Twice I received a call that I had to change my appointment do to the dental hygienist not being available, twice. I told the lady that called me that if they were to cancel again, I wasn't going to go, I was tired of them keep cancelling me, never once an apology or an explanation that made any since as to why the cancellations were happening. Finally the third time I was given an appointment

I have been a client of Dr. Cortadi for close to a year now. I visited her office for the first time with what I would consider to be a mouth full of problems. She took great care to make sure that we not only fixed the issues but also addressed what was causing them. I have since returned for multiple treatments and would recommend her and her staff to family and friends.

This past week I went in for a routine teeth cleaning and checkup and experienced the most thorough and enjoyable service from a fantastic dental assistant (I am terrible with names but thank you!).

Dr. Cortadi and her staff exceeded my expectations! They were very professional, accommodating, organized and overall a really nice group of people. It was my first visit to Dr. Cortadi and it was an emergency since I had broken a molar. She diagnosed the problem, developed a plan and even cemented my tooth so I could still partake in a work event the following day. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and efficient Dentist!

I've been going to Dr. Cortadi for years. My whole family, in fact, goes to her. Even though we've moved further south and the trip to her office takes a little more time, we still continue to go to her for dental care because she is that good. Her staff, as well, is professional, knowledgable, and courteous. Our teeth are in good hands.

Since there are so many happy reviews on here, I am going to let you be the judge.

My experience really deserves no stars, I find it hard to believe that there aren't more honest reviews here.

You will have to go into the office and experience this yourself.

Areas of issues:

Quality of work
Cost of work
Billing to customer and insurance
False advertising
Over referring
Excessive "confirm" appointment times
Retaliation for canceling upcoming appointments
Misuse of credit card numbers


I think I'll stop here. If you are customer and don't experience any of this, lucky

Not only is the dentist rude but she over charged me $200+. I went to her for a problem with my gums and she charged me for work she never did. When I looked the proceedure up and called to say this was not part of the treatment she returned my money but never said a word.

I wouldn't hire her to mow my lawn.
