PATIENT REVIEWS

Dr. Matt Zarinnia is an amazing dentist. He makes what would normally be a nerve-racking trip to the dentist an awesome positive experience. His passion shines as brightly as my teeth now thanks to him, and not to mention his amazing colleagues! Everyone in this dentistry is so charismatic and enthusiastic. My teeth have never felt or looked better, thank you Dr. Zarinnia and everyone at Encino Cosmetic Dental Group 🙂

Dr.Zarinnia is great, the staff is great. My teeth were dire need of some work. I was very nervous about how much it was going to hurt.(I don’t like pain or needles) They made me feel so at ease, I had to bite the bullet and get the work done. I have to say, very little pain. Now I have a great smile thnx to Dr.Zarinnia. Adriana is so nice and always greets me with a smile every time I come in. I recommend this place to everyone! Very professional staff.

Great work and great diagnostics. During a routine cleaning, the alert hygienist detected something that didn’t hurt but would have if not caught. Dr. Zarinnia created a temporary crown, referred me to an excellent endodontist who performed a painless root canal. The painless part is important because I am a wimp. The permanent crown turned out great. Highly recommeded.

Dr. Zarinnia and Adriana front desk Manager are Amazing!!! My children come in and leave so Happy Today Priscilla and Emily saw Dr. Zarinnia and had there teeth cleaned. Emily said I love this dentist office Mommy. I feel so good from the minute i walk in the building with the sweet guy in Lobby and his Awesome flavored cold water. Restrooms are clean. Office is very neat and tidy. Our Family has been recomending for years.

I had broken a tooth and a loose crown and was looking for a good dentist as the dentist I had seen was horrible, and his manner had prevented me from getting proper care. I called 1-800-dentist and they offered me the Encino Group. I could not have been happier with this offering! Fantastic service. Adriana in the office is great – very efficient and pleasant. The dental assistant was very good as well. Dr. Matt is wonderful! I had to have two teeth extracted, and he explained to me in great detail what he was doing as he worked. He is a very compassionate doctor and a treat to know. I have never felt so comfortable with a dentist before in my life. Wonderful experience.

FYI: I’m a person that usually is scared to go to the dentist. And that’s why I think it was super important to write this review! Both  Dr. Z and the Hygienist were so patient and caring during my visit. I told them beforehand that I try to avoid going to the dentist, and I hadn’t visited one in over 1.5 yrs.  They really took their time and were patient with me , even though I was so nervous. The hygienist explained more oral care tips and was constantly asking me if I’m okay (throughout my whole visit).  I will most definitely be back, it was a great dental office and team!

I have to admit that when it comes to dentists, I’m the worlds biggest baby. That being said, I needed a deep cleaning, tooth extraction and replacement. I did all my homework researching dentists in my area and all signs led to Encino Cosmetic Dental Group. The Dr. and staff went above and beyond, calming my fears and putting me at ease. I can honestly say after years of avoiding dentists I have found the place where I can get excellent dental care, PAIN FREE. Thank you Encino Cosmetic Dental Group! You’ve earned my business for life!

I had a wonderful experience here! Dr Matt is the best dentist I have ever had in my life. I came here with a sharp pain and cavity in my tooth and he really made my experience so painless. The office is great and the dental assistant U.S. Nice too. Dr Matt is very compassionate and genuine. He recommended an endodontist for my root canal who was great also. Dr Matt does a thorough and precise job. He made a perfect crown to fit my teeth. I’m very grateful and happy to have found such a wonderful doctor!

This review is way overdue. For many years I contemplated getting my teeth fixed. I was always scared that I would get a bad job. When I met Dr Matt he was so comforting and walked me through the whole process. He just has this way about him that’s reassuring and doesn’t work fast like he’s rushing through patients. I felt like he really cared about the end result. So I had my bridge done … My 6 front teeth. It turned out amazing!! It’s been about two years and I am really impressed and happy with the work. I get so many compliments. Oh and his office… that view is awesome!! I definitely recommend Dr Matt! Adrianna she’s at the front office she’s very sweet and accommodating as well!

As a first time patient here at this dental office I was unsure how of course my experience would be, usually what I do when I am new to something such as this there are several things I observe closely when it comes to seeking the right Doctor/Dentist….To get a feel for and Observing if I’m in good care with the dental team (care to needs, answering any questions or concerns with a good attitude ), patience( not feeling rushed) how cleanliness might be, how my treatment goes, how experienced and knowledgable they are about the profession, and I’m so pleased to say everything was at excellence A+…..Dr. Matt and the crew all did a great job in my visit for cleaning and check up and for the filling dr. Matt did it so efficiently and smooth showed me a before and after photo of my filling tooth area and it literally looked like a brand new tooth afterward. Thank you so very much dr. Matt and dental team so glad to know I found my dental office and will be a returning patient….. Highly recommend if you are in need of a dentist.

Dr. Zarina is a wonderful dentist.  I was very happy with his bonding the gaps near my gums on three teeth and he did it painlessly.  He is very easy to work with and not only did he listen very carefully to my concerns, but he resolved everything to my complete satisfaction.  I am so glad to have discovered such a fine dentist.  His office is beautiful and very modern and exceptionally clean.  Yes, I know medical professionals have to have clean offices – but his office sparkles.  Adriana, the office manager, is very knowledgeable and very helpful in explaining everything.  The only con – parking.  I parked at the Ralphs parking lot and enjoyed the nice walk.  Thank you for everything Dr. Zarina.  You are a five star.

I finally found a dentist to cure my fear of dentists.  I went to a few dentists in Santa Monica, and they were rude, and uncaring, and tried to get me for procedures that didn’t need to be done.  I came to Encino Cosmetic Dental Group for a second opinion on a broken tooth, and not only did they save me over $1000, but everybody here is awesome.  Adriana at the front desk took extra time to help me understand my insurance.  Dr. Matt was very friendly, and had a gentle hand when working on my teeth. And they won’t do any work until they go over procedure and cost.  They let u choose the amount you want to spend which is my favorite.  I have recommended them to everyone I know looking for a dentist.

After reading a review from Carlyn B. I was a little worried about my cleaning appointment at the office.  Once I got there I met with the same dental hygienist and told her I read the last review.  She was awesome!  She explained to me plaque in your teeth is pretty serious and can create serious health problems.  At that moment I remember the last cleaning I had in-which the dentist also told me when they clean they have to be careful that I don’t ingest any of the plaque for the same reason. They were very careful to use suction all the time during my cleaning.  The hygienist even took the time to show me how important cleaning my teeth on a regular basis was, and was very helpful explaining what I might need done, without pushing these services like many LA dental offices.  I left my last dentist because I felt they were more focused on making money than providing great dental services.  I think Carlyn B. just had a bad day and didn’t have the experience I had with the same hygienist.   It also sounds like she was stressed over other issues even before her cleaning.  I also have dogs and the vet said the same thing to me.  You have to get rid of the plaque or you will have health problems. Quite frankly, I would rather have a hygienist and dentist who tell me the honest truth, than downplay it or not tell me at all.  On the contrary, I would say, “Ask for Sheila” and you will have a wonderful experience.  You will love her honesty.

I went to see Dr. Zarinnia after a lapse of dental visits for about 3 years.  My teeth were in need of some help.  After finishing with Dr. Matt, who was great, I moved on to the dental hygienist (Sheila).  She was amazing, friendly, and very professional.  I felt like I was given more information about my teeth and gum situation than I had ever received from previous dental clinics.  After going through what she recommended we do, I met with Adriana, who was pleasant as could be and very professional.  We went through what my insurance would cover and what my costs would be and she left the decision up to me as to what we would be doing.  At no point did anyone pressure me to go with one service over another.  As for parking, yes…it’s very expensive in the lot.  However, you can park at the Coffee Bean at Woodley and Ventura, grab an item to go, and park there for 2 hours with validation.  I’ve found my new dentist and I’d recommend this office to anyone.

It’s very rare that I write reviews. Maybe I’m hard to impress. However in the case of Dr. Matt Zarinnia I make an exception – because I find his work to be exceptional. In my own work I have to pay attention to tiny details, and I always appreciate it when I see someone pay attention to the details. Injections of anesthetic have been completely painless for me – he does it so accurately and smoothly. Even his temp teeth (while a crown procedure has been in progress) are superb – and the final result better still. From making an appointment through to complicated procedures – the entire staff is courteous, extremely professional, and helpful in every way. The facility is kept immaculate. You can tell that the team take pride in their work. I have been to many dentists in my life, and for the last few years only Dr. Zarinnia. As long as he is in practice I will never need to see any other dentist.

Dr. Matt is awesome!  I moved to LA from the east coast 8 years ago.  Growing up and up until I moved to LA my dentist was my uncle John.  He is an amazing dentist and obviously being a close relative he took amazing care of my teeth.  When I moved to LA I went through about 3 different dentists before a friend referred me to Dr. Matt and Encino Cosmetic.  I needed some significant work at the time and the other dentists I had seen just saw dollar signs telling me I needed thousands of dollars of work.  When I met with Dr. Matt he went through a variety of options that fit my budget and made me feel really comfortable with what needed to be done.  He even collaborated with my uncle’s recommendation’s which really told me he cared about me and my health.  My teeth look great!  If you want a dentist that makes you feel like he is family you need to come meet Dr. Matt!

Dr. Zarinnia is a real professional dentist. I love the way he made a temporary crown. It was amazing. First he found out that my tooth needs a root canal. Something that I didn’t like to hear. He recommend an endodontist who was really experienced. Then he made a temporary crown with his magical one of the kind way. After a week my crown was ready. It’s not always doing a job but sometimes you want something perfect. What he did was an artwork like sculpturing. Adriana takes care of all office works. She is super fast to do her job. Getting authorization from the d..mn insurance is a piece of cake for her. Doctor’s assistant (I keep forgetting her name) is doing s great job too. This was the first office that I got full X-rays without redo some of them. The look of the office is modern and clean. You can always find a couple of live plants here and there. I love the views also

Recently I did one crown job at Dr. Matt Zarinnia office. It is too soon to judge about it but he is a Dr. that gives out the best advice and help to make up your mind without pushing. I needed an overall x-ray for the periodontist, but my insurance was going to make trouble with their policies. Dr. referred me to his brother’s office (who is also a dentist) for a free overall x-ray and it could help me a lot and I appreciate it. The bottom line is that I can trust him and for any dental issue, I prefer to consult with him first.

Was referred to Encino Cosmetic Dental Group by a teeth whitening special which I received as a gift from a dear friend. Immediately impressed as soon as I sat in the dentist’s chair by the beautiful view outside the floor to ceiling windows right in front of me. Sarah, the assistant, was pleasant, professional, and provided great care. Upon returning for a cleaning, was relieved and satisfied that Teresa, Dr Zarinnia’s hygienist, has tremendous skills and elicited zero pain. Yes, ZERO pain! That is a first for me. Thank you, Teresa! I liked the treatment by Dr Zarinnia himself. He is gentle and effective. And thank you to Adrianna for researching my insurance and keeping me reminded of my appointments! The reminders are REALLY helpful. All in all, a great environment and a professional and caring staff.

I just want the world to know about how Incredible Dr. Matt Zarinnia and his amazing staff are and what they are all about.  I have been searching for a good dentist for many many years and never found one until I finally found the best dentist Dr. Zarinnia that is YOU who is at Encino Cosmetic Dental Group! His office and staff are the Beverly Hills of the San Fernando Valley.  I went to see Dr Zarinnia a week ago and I was greeted by Adrianna what a delight she is representing the doctor and his office who is a FABULOUS receptionist  who  is so efficient and cognizant of the whole office and warm and friendly; she made me feel like I had known her forever.  Adriana it was such a pleasure meeting you.    I give  my utmost thanks and gratitude and appreciation to Dr Zarinnia for all that you did for me.  I honestly cannot thank you enough- you are amazing. Also please thank your wonderful assistant for me and please tell Sheila your fantastic hygienist what  a fabulous job she did deep cleaning my teeth explaining everything to me what she was doing and it was great that she did that.  Dr. Zarinnia thank you for taking  so much time with me again explaining everything to me and all that  needed to be done and putting me at ease and making me feel how much you really care about my teeth and me.  I have never met a dentist like you in my whole life.  I have never met an office staff like you have in my whole life . You are All so AWESOME,  wonderful, caring and concerning and I have found the best dentist and staff in the world; there is no one like you Dr. Zarinnia and all your staff.  I so enjoyed meeting you all – I wish I found you years ago! Thank you, thank you,thank you all again and again!  I’m here to stay: you are all unbelievably fantastic!! See you in two weeks . I actually am   looking  forward to seeing you all again. Dr. Zerannia you and your marvelous staff are all tens. Love, Phyllis

Was here on Monday and previously to get cleanings done, but this time was here to get some dental cosmetics work. First off, they are very professional and have great customer service. Adriana is a wonderful Office Manager, she is very thorough when it comes to what your insurance will pay, and what your benefits will cover and gives you even options to pay off your balance, there are no billing surprises later. Matt Zarinnia, D.M.D. is professional by 100% standards. He takes the time to explain the procedures and what are the pros and cons of doing a dental procedure and how they are beneficial for you and basically doesn’t just try to take you for your money, He has a great dental chair bed side manner and also a great sense of humor I personally think. More importantly he thinks of you first and 100% percent makes sure your comfortable and not in any pain ( love Novocaine). They are on the pricier side of the dental price range, but like they say, you get what you pay for!  Oh small plus since it’s on Ventura Blvd and a hassel to find parking on the streets, they do validate when you park in the parking struture.

They are the best!  I was nervous about seeing a new dentist since I loved by previous dentist, but we had changed insurance companies and my last dentist wasn’t in the new network.  So, I had contacted a referral company to get information on a new dentist and they recommended the Encino Cosmetic Dental Group.  I’m very happy they did. On my first visit, I had an abscess on my lower gum from a previous root canal that was performed by a different dentist on an old crown a year prior.  When the root canal was performed, they had drilled through the crown and apparently filled the top of the crown with a “temporary” substance until the crown could be replaced.  Of course, I forgot to take care of that before it caused problems.  Once I started having bad problems, I called and they were able to get me in almost immediately. At first, they didn’t know if they could save the tooth since it had been ground down so much previously for the initial crown.  However, they worked on it and were able to save the tooth without any problems.  I felt like they truly took the time and were concerned enough to save the tooth rather than just recommending a high cost procedure. The entire office staff is extremely friendly and professional.  I have been in for 3 cleanings since that initial visit and each time the entire office staff remembers our conversations from previous visits.  They treat you like a friend. For those of us with busy schedules, they are very good with appointment reminders and follow-up if you forgot to make an appointment for cleanings, etc. I’m very happy we found Encino Cosmetic Dental Group and would recommend them to anybody looking for a dentist.

Dr. Zarinnia and the staff at Encino Cosmetic Dental Group provide exceptional care in the most professional way. Throughout the visit, they are courteous and take time to explain procedures and recommended treatment. They have noticeably improved my oral health since I started going there. It’s always great to see them and know that I am getting the best care for my teeth and overall health.

I visited Dr, Zarinnia after my friend told me to make an appointment with him since I wasn’t happy with my old dentist.  His office is clean, and nice.  I never have to wait a long time like you do at some offices.  they are pretty good about keeping their appt times.  The entire staff from the front desk to the hygienist and the Dr himself everyone in the office are very nice and courteous. I often hate my teeth cleanings but the hygentist is very pleasant she is always trying to make sure you are comfortable while doing the cleaning.  I even get text messages reminding me when its my time to make an appt.  which is pretty convenient.
