I recently moved to LA and was looking for a new dentist. I had the most amazing experience at 26th street dental! Everyone was so friendly starting with the office staff as I entered the office. I arrived right on time and was brought back to the chair in less than a minute. The hygienist was super knowledgeable and walked me through everything she was doing and all of her findings along the way. Lastly, Dr Dunkling was so personable and knowledgeable as well! Overall, couldn’t have asked for a better experience and have definitely found my new LA dentists!

Most people really hate going to the dentist but I have always had a great experience with both Dr. Dunkling and Dr. Averill. When I go to see either of them, I feel like I’m in good hands and if they suggest I need to have any work done, I trust that it’s really necessary and for the best. In the past with other dentists, I haven’t felt like they’ve been as genuine and I always question if I really need the work done or if they’re trying to get me to pay for something that’s unnecessary. Everyone in the office is extremely friendly and helpful and I’d highly recommend going to 26th Street dental!

The practice of Dr. Averill and Dr. Dunkling is exceptional in every way. They do excellent work, giving detailed explanations, patiently answer all questions, it never feels rushed. Their hygienists, office staff and financial manager too are friendly and efficient in every way. The dentist my family and I went to for 25 years retired and did a lot of research to find the most qualified dentists to replace her and we are all so grateful for her choice.

I came into town for business and had a toothache that became unbearable.Looking for dentists in my coverage brought me to their office and I am happy that it did. They were able to squeeze me in on short notice and were able to get what turned out to be a cavity taken care of quickly and painlessly. Very professional, attentive, and friendly staff made the unanticipated trip to the dentist a breeze and I was able to get back to work without missing a beat. Thanks guys!

26th Street Dental is the type of office that you want to go to.. there is a friendliness and a warmth, everyone takes the time to talk to you, and you can tell there is a bond among the people who work there. The office itself was home to an excellent dental practice for decades, several employees have worked there for many, many years, but now there is the added new, youthful energy and technological expertise of the great young dentists who bought the practice. 26th Street Dental is the best of both worlds ..the warmth of an old fashioned dentist’s office combined with the benefits of the most up to date techniques and technology.

Dr. Dunkling and Dr. Averill are the best dentists I’ve had in my longish life; always willing to take the time to discuss procedures and options, and extremely skilled. The staff is efficient and always pleasant. My hygienist Jackie has an amazing, painless and thorough technique. I’m also appreciative that that everyone is upbeat and fun to interact with. It’s a great place with great people. Highly recommended.

Dr. Dunkling and Dr. Averill are amazing! First time I’ve actually enjoyed going to the dentist. In addition to doing great dental work, they take the time to explain each procedure. They never make me feel silly for asking questions and I always feel like they have my best interest in mind. Highly recommend.

Great dentists!! Highly recommend!!!  I see Dr. Dunkling and she is thorough and detailed, let me know what she was doing at every step. (I had chipped a tooth so she needed to fix the filling.). I had spoken to Dr. Averill about my appointment and he is very nice and professional.

26th Street Dental is the most caring, cautions, and accommodating office in town. Jackie is an amazing and careful hygienist and both Dr. Averill and Dr. Dunkling are kind, energetic, positive, and highly professional!! I highly recommend this team which also includes lovely Asia at the front desk. They don’t come any sweeter than she!.

My husband and I have been on the hunt for a new dentist in LA for the last few years. After trying many different dentists we never found doctors as patient, thorough and knowledgeable as Dr. Averill and Dr. Dunkling! They are always sure to explain everything in detail and with care. The office staff is very friendly and we love the family-feel of the office. We have recommended 26th Street Dental to friends and family and would recommend to anyone looking for the best dentists around!

I’ve been going to 26th Street Dental for ages and I would never go anywhere else. Across the street from the Country Mart in Brentwood/Santa Monica, their office is lovely and the expertise and positivity of their entire team make seeing the dentist a joyful experience. It’s easy to park in their lot only steps from the office and parking is FREE! How rare that is in Santa Monica and Brentwood. The team of Drs. Gordon Averill and Angie Dunkling are first-class. They both make you feel relaxed and comfortable and, in fact, I always feel like I’m visiting my friends when I arrive. In the last month, I had three crowns done — in one visit — with Dr. Averill and some other work. He gave me the option of doing them on different days or all at once and I chose to get them all done at once. There was no pain at all. The numbing shots didn’t even hurt. Dr. Gordon is kind and patient, answers any questions I have (and I ask a lot!), and is an expert in the application of his professional skills. It’s also easy to see how much he enjoys his work and he wants everything to be perfect with his dental procedures and also with the patient’s comfort. He has a great sense of humor, too. During the procedures, they play music from a playlist that was so good that I was secretly hoping the procedure would last longer. Dr. Averill also telephoned me after the procedure to see how I was feeling and ask if I had any questions. Drs. Averill and Dunkling are the quintessential dentists and I feel blessed that they are in MY dentists. The entire team at 26th Street Dental is also the best. When you arrive, you’re greeted by Jeanine, Polina and Asia who are always genuinely happy to see you as are both dentists. Veronica is also delightful and superb in her assistance with dental procedures and so is Nelly. And Julie is my dental hygienist whom I’ve been going to for years and cleans my teeth better than anyone I’ve ever gone to before. Jack and Rich made beautiful crowns. I also appreciate that they are always on time at this practice. I’ve never had to wait for any of my appointments. Oh, and by the way, I spoke to one of their patients who actually comes over from England to have these dentists work on him. He told me that he would never go to anyone else either. And he lives 5,200 miles away. So the positive reputation of 26th Street Dental extends way beyond Los Angeles. Once you go to this dental practice, you won’t want to go anywhere else either.
