2007-10-11 09:44:33   I went to Dr. Jones about a month and a half ago or so, after seeing a different dentist for 15 years. Dr. Jones did a great job (better than my previous dentist), and explained exactly what he was doing the whole time. He was able to fix my broken filling immediately, and I never even felt the numbing shot go into my gums (that has never happened before). I highly recommend this dentist. —RG

2007-10-13 15:17:08   I went to Dr. Jones for a tooth extraction and had one of the best dental experiences I have had yet. He took his time examining my tooth, which has been decaying for about 2 years now. I got a root canal and never followed up on the crowning, so the tooth has just been open and decaying. I really hate going to the dentist for anything so I put it off for too long. I know its kind of gross, but it wasn't that bad until a few days ago an infection kicked in and the tooth just needed to come out. Dr. Jones wanted to save the tooth if possible, but as I thought, it was too far gone. The numbing shot, which is usually one of my least favorite parts, was painless and easy. Similar to RG's experience Dr. Jones explained what was going on, I had told him that it helps me with the experience to know what is occurring as the procedure is happening. I had been seeing my previous dentist for most of my life, being a Davis native. Going to see Dr. Jones was a great change and I recommend him to anyone looking for a new dentist. —MattHarris

2007-11-27 14:29:34   I've been seeing Dr. Jones for a while now and he's an excellent dentist. Highly recommended! —BrianGingold

2007-11-28 22:54:41   Dr. Jones came to the clinic I currently intern at as a volunteer dentist. He's very gentle with the patients and explains things patiently. He is very friendly and explains what he's doing down to the molecular level. Very knowledgeable! —lyusman

2007-12-17 15:31:47   I am an extremely nervous patient. Dr. Jones is very thorough and aware of my needs, always acting in a considerate fashion to give me the best dental experience. I would recommend him to anyone! —SamanthaMartin

2008-01-06 13:25:15   I just want to add some praise for Dr Jones to Brian Gingold's. I moved to Davis a couple of years ago and had the standard set of teeth Xrays one gets when starting at a new dentist. From these Xrays Dr Jones recognized that I had an infection as a result of a root canal that was done poorly many years ago. My immune system had the infection under control but it was slowly reducing the bone at that point. In time I would have got an abscess and maybe the bone would have been so bad that I would have had to have the tooth out. Dr Jones referred me to an oral surgeon to have the infection removed. He was very complimentary of Dr Jones for having seen something that most dentists would have missed. —LNewson

2008-02-27 13:34:09   Hands down, the best dental experience I have ever had. I just went in this morning for a root canal that was the result of a poorly cleaned cavity by my regular dentist down south. Yesterday, I went in for a consultation after feeling pain and they discovered that my tooth had died! I asked maybe 50 questions regarding cost, insurance, and other methods of fixing the tooth and Dr. Jones listened and explained VERY patiently and told me the various costs and benefits of each of the methods. Although I am almost scared to death with dentists and have never ever wanted to be in the chair, once I got over the first 20 minutes, they made the whole three hours it took to complete the procedure easy. They not only made me feel welcome and less scared of the whole process, but also treated me with the most tender care and respect I have ever received from a dental professional. The anesthetic was head on and I usually hate getting shots (bad experiences with my socal dentist), but he knew what he was doing and the drilling was painless! He took painstaking care in making sure that the root canal was done as well as possible!

I have nothing but words of praise for this doctor, his staff, and his three receptionists! Highly, highly recommend to everyone, I'll be recommending him to my friends! —CalvinCheng

2008-04-28 23:02:39   After several years of neglecting my teeth, Dr. Jones did four crowns and an extraction. His pleasant manner made the whole experience painless and, dare I say it, pleasant? He's enthusiastic, professional, and thorough. I feel completely comfortable in his care. I'll definitely recommend him to my friends. —JiannaR

2008-07-16 20:05:48   I am very happy to have Dr. Jones as my new dentist. I have had a sketchy track record w/ dentists over the past 20 years-me not always having insurance, so I feel very secure and safe trusting my dental needs to him. If you have fear or anxiety about dental visits, he's a great choice because he is gentle, very communicative about what he's doing and seeing in your mouth, and has a very warm and friendly office staff. He also is my hero, recently chosing a conservative filling rather than going to a crown which was recommended by my former dentist. Thank you Dr. Jones. Highly recommended. —ahbrapeach

2008-09-06 13:50:55   While I've never been a patient of Dr. Jones, I'll point out that he's answered technical questions across the wiki, helping people who aren't paying him to do so (and not just on the dental questions entry). He appears to be passionate about the practice of dentistry and honestly care about people's dental health. —Evan 'JabberWokky' Edwards

2008-09-26 11:31:27   Dagon Jones and the rest of the staff in this office are absolutely amazing. I had not been to the dentist in years and was very nervous about going to a new dentist in Davis. They got me into their office within 2 days of my call while other offices in town had a 1-2 month wait list for new patients. Upon examination, Dr. Jones found I had a small cavity. I was super nervous about getting it filled, and he offered to do it that day, right then! It took him less than 10 minutes to have the cavity filled and he walked me through the process step by step. They are so comforting and gentle and really make an effort to do the best job possible on any aspect of their care, even a simple cleaning. The staff took time to get to know me and even sent me a thank you card later that week wishing me well in my pursuits (with details i never would have expected my dentist to care about, least of all remember!). My experience could not have been better, and I couldn't trust Dagon and his staff more. AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!! I highly reccomend their office if you are looking for a new dentist or are unhappy with your current dentist. Thanks Dagon and Staff!! —Castle

2008-10-16 13:22:18   Dr. Jones has an artist touch and a doctors hands. I have received the best treatment at his office and I can't recomend him enough. The treatment was virtually painless and he is both quick and thourough. —LaurentColvin

2008-11-10 00:09:38   Does anyone know if Dr. Jones is covered by SHIP? I could only find Dr. Johnson on the Delta Dental website. Thanks! —Kehaar

2008-11-10 12:22:16   Yes, Dr. Jones is a provider for Delta Dental which is the ship insurance. You would be in good hands with either Dr. Jones or Dr. Johnson they are both great dentists. —AngelaGerould

2008-11-10 21:02:47   Thanks for your reply Angela. Do you know this for sure? I ask because I can't find his name on the Delta Dental site. He isn't listed as a Delta Dental Premier or PPO provider, but Johnson is. I wonder if he is no longer a provider for DD. ?? —Kehaar

2008-11-11 13:15:38   Yes I'm sure I called his office this morning to confirm. Delta Dentals website is not always accurate. Good luck —AngelaGerould

2008-11-19 14:01:11   I can confirm that we do accept SHIP (UC Davis student insurance). —DagonJones

2009-03-15 23:23:09   I usually hate going to the dentist and hadn't been to one in a while but I had a really good experience going to see Dr. Jones. I was very happy with the care given by Dr. Jones and his staff. Everyone was really friendly and Dr.Jones answered all my questions. The Dr. is a really nice and smart guy and makes you feel comfortable. He is actually the best dentist I have been to since my childhood dentist. I'm glad I looked him up on the wiki and now have a good dentist to go to here in Davis while I finish up school. I'd recommend him to anyone. He even sent a thank you card after my appointments. Very pleased!! SHIP insurance took care of everything. —Kehaar

2009-04-02 12:14:10   I have seen Dr. Jones for routine checkups as well as wisdom teeth extraction and cavities. Although my extraction was very unpleasant, I think that the pain was unavoidable. Dr. Jones takes time to explain any questions you may have and never appears rushed. He also offers free dental care in a homeless clinic. He is a wonderful dentist. —JanethN.

2009-08-26 18:09:24   Dr. Jones is AMAZING. Go see him now. Seriously. I saw him a week ago and got a hand written card in the mail today. —justsara

2009-09-04 07:28:47   Dr. Dagon Jones and the staff at this office are all very friendly and professional. I particularly appreciated that they accepted my same-sex partner's insurance in addition to my own, without even batting an eye or making a weird face. I know that queer-friendliness isn't a pre-requisite for quality dental care, but it definitely makes me feel a lot more comfortable. —travis.obrien
