About Our Practice

About

When a toothache strikes at the worst possible moment, you need an emergency dentist in Montebello who picks up the phone and gets you seen fast. That's the promise behind Sahara Family Dental. We opened our doors on N 4th Street to give local families, kids, and seniors one place they can count on for routine checkups, urgent care, and everything in between.

Meet Our Team

Your Family & Emergency Dentist in Montebello

When a toothache strikes at the worst possible moment, or when your child needs a gentle first visit, you want a dental team you already trust. That's exactly what Sahara Family Dental was built to be: a neighborhood dental home where you can find an experienced emergency dentist in Montebello along with the routine, cosmetic, and family care that keeps your whole household smiling between visits.

Our clinic sits on North 4th Street in the heart of Montebello, and our three doctors have built their careers around one simple idea: good dentistry should feel personal. Below, you'll get to know Dr. Beshoy Eskandar, Dr. Mina Botros, and Dr. Ronald Sahara, the clinicians behind every cleaning, crown, root canal, and late-night emergency call we take.

Whether you're searching for the best dentist near you, a pediatric dentist in Montebello for your kids, or a walk-in dental office for an unexpected problem, this is the team that will be looking after you.

Our Dentists

The Doctors Behind Every Smile We Treat

Each of our dentists brings a distinct focus to the practice, from general and cosmetic dentistry to oral surgery and emergency care, so that no matter what brings you through our door, you're seen by someone who knows exactly how to help.

Dr. Beshoy Eskandar, general and family dentist at Sahara Family Dental

Dr. Beshoy Eskandar

General & Family Dentistry

Dr. Eskandar leads much of our general and family dentistry, from routine checkups and cleanings to fillings and preventive care for kids and adults alike. Patients describe him as thorough, calm, and genuinely interested in explaining what's happening with their teeth before any treatment begins.

He has a particular interest in preventive dentistry and in helping anxious patients feel at ease, something he sees as just as important as the clinical work itself. Families who've been with him for years appreciate that he remembers details about their lives, not just their x-rays.

Dr. Mina Botros, restorative and cosmetic dentist at Sahara Family Dental

Dr. Mina Botros

Restorative & Cosmetic Dentistry

Dr. Botros focuses on restorative and cosmetic dentistry, including crowns, bridges, veneers, and teeth whitening in Montebello. He works with patients who want a smile that looks natural and lasts, taking the time to match shade, shape, and bite so the final result feels like it was always there.

Beyond the cosmetic side, he also handles more complex restorative cases, including patients who need multiple procedures coordinated into one treatment plan rather than a string of disconnected appointments.

Dr. Ronald Sahara, dental implants and oral surgery dentist at Sahara Family Dental

Dr. Ronald Sahara

Dental Implants & Oral Surgery

Dr. Sahara specializes in dental implants, extractions, and oral surgery, including the more involved cases that come up when a tooth can't be saved or a patient has been missing teeth for years. His approach is methodical, and he's upfront about timelines, costs, and what recovery actually looks like.

He also sees a good number of our emergency patients, since broken teeth, abscesses, and trauma cases often fall squarely into his area of expertise. Patients in real pain tend to feel reassured by how directly he communicates.

Why Montebello Trusts Us

Why Montebello Families Choose Sahara Family Dental

We've heard it directly from patients: finding an affordable dental clinic in Montebello that also feels warm and unhurried isn't easy. Here's what sets our office apart, in the words our patients actually use.

Three Doctors, One Coordinated Team

Because Dr. Eskandar, Dr. Botros, and Dr. Sahara work out of the same office and communicate about shared patients, your treatment plan isn't fragmented. If your case calls for a specialist's eye, you're often seen the same day without being sent elsewhere.

Same-Day & Emergency Visits

A cracked tooth, a lost filling, or sudden swelling doesn't wait for a convenient time. We set aside appointment slots specifically for urgent cases so you're not stuck searching for a walk-in dental office near you.

A Gentle Hand With Kids

We know a child's first few dental visits shape how they feel about the dentist for the rest of their life. Our team slows down, explains things in plain language, and builds trust before diving into treatment.

Straightforward, Fair Pricing

Before any work begins, you'll know what it costs and what your insurance is likely to cover. No surprises on your statement, and no pressure to say yes on the spot.

Right in the Heart of Montebello

Our office on North 4th Street is easy to reach from Commerce, Pico Rivera, East Los Angeles, and surrounding communities, with flexible hours that work around a real workweek.

We Actually Listen

Every visit starts with a conversation, not a drill. We want to understand your concerns, your history, and your goals before we recommend anything.

What To Expect

What a Visit to Sahara Family Dental Looks Like

First visits set the tone, so we try to make ours unhurried and clear. You'll fill out a short history form, meet one of our doctors directly, and walk through any x-rays or findings together before we talk about next steps. Nothing happens to your mouth without you understanding why.

If you're coming in for a dental emergency, the process looks a little different. Our front desk team is trained to ask the right questions over the phone so we know whether to get you in within the hour or schedule you for later the same day. Either way, you'll be seen by a doctor equipped to handle the problem, not just manage the pain until you can see "a specialist."

For families, we try to schedule parents and kids back to back when possible, so one trip to Montebello covers everyone's checkup instead of three separate visits spread across different weeks.

Services You'll Find Across Our Doctors

  • Preventive & family care: Cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments, and sealants for every age, from toddlers to grandparents.

  • Cosmetic dentistry: Teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding for patients who want a brighter, more even smile.

  • Restorative treatment: Crowns, bridges, fillings, and full mouth reconstruction when needed.

  • Dental implants & extractions: Permanent tooth replacement and oral surgery handled in-house.

  • Root canal therapy: Treatment for infected or badly decayed teeth, done carefully to save the natural tooth whenever possible.

  • Emergency dental care: Same-day attention for pain, trauma, broken teeth, and infections.

Insurance & Cost

Affordable Dental Care and Insurance in Montebello

Cost is usually the first question on a patient's mind, especially for anything beyond a basic cleaning. We work with most major dental insurance plans, and our front desk team will verify your benefits before your visit so there's no confusion later. If you're between plans or your coverage is limited, we'll walk through payment options so a needed treatment doesn't get put off indefinitely.

We've found that most of the stress around dental visits comes from not knowing what something will cost. That's why every treatment plan at Sahara Family Dental comes with a clear estimate up front, covering the procedure itself, what your insurance is expected to pay, and what you'll owe out of pocket.
