Elevate Dental Encino
Navid Safaei, DDS:
Practice Profile Page

The best dentist in LA!!! Everybody in the office greets you with a smiling face, and treats you with respect. They are extremely thorough and easy to make appointments with. Beyond all of that, they take their time and make sure you’re comfortable and calm before any cleaning or procedure.I am usually NOT a fan of dentist visits. The poking, the sounds, the pain, etc.  But with a room full of people keeping the mood light, going at my pace, and making me feel comfortable, all the things I used to dread seem to go away.

Dr. Safaei actually cares about his patients. He’s always willing to accommodate my crazy schedule, he follows up to make sure my issues are fixed, he’s funny, and he makes the otherwise terrible experience of going to the dentist not just bearable, but kind of fun. I highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience. Dr. Safaei made me feel so comfortable. I went in for a checkup after noticing a couple chips and cracks on my teeth. Dr. Safaei did an exam and gave me a treatment plan not only to fix the problems but to keep the problems from happening over again. A couple implants and a guard later, I’m a happy camper. No more pain! So grateful I found them. Highly recommend Elevate Dental!

I started going to Dr. Safaei in July 2017 as I was a legacy patient from Dr. Melnick. I found Dr. Safaei to be very personable, honest and extremely knowledgeable. After examining my teeth, he indicated a few areas where we could make improvements. One area which I, being ignorant of, was bonding a gap in my front teeth. Oddly, I’ve had this “issue” as far back as I can remember, but none of my previous dentists ever said they could fix it or even brought up ways to improve it. I just took it for granted that it was something that couldn’t be fixed. Dr. Safaei indicated he could fix it by a bonding procedure, which was both inexpensive and amazingly effective – sounds too good to be true right, but it’s the truth. I couldn’t believe how good it looks now, as a matter of fact, I couldn’t recall for a few seconds where the gap was when I first examined the bonding – after 20+ years of having the gap. Weird, but true! I’m very happy with my new “teeth” and no longer have the odd gap I had which made me self conscious when I smiled. Dr. Safaei rocks!

From the moment I walked into Dr. Safai’s office I was all smiles! The energy was fantastic and upbeat, the staff was incredibly sweet and kind, and Dr. Safai was absolutely extraordinary and professional! (The office was immaculate too, btw.) I felt like such a VIP during my visit and felt so comfortable.  Dr. Safai patiently answered all of my questions and I left feeling like I actually learned something new.  I also left feeling like I made some new friends. Coolest dentist office EVER.  Usually at other dentist offices that I’ve been to, I would get pretty nervous or uncomfortable getting my teeth cleaned- I always just wanted it to be over so I could leave. But Dr. Safai and his team made me feel like I was right at home to the point where I didn’t want to leave. I will highly, HIGHLY recommend Dr. Safai of Elevate Dental Encino to all of my friends and family because I know he gives his whole heart to what he does.

So glad I found this place after seeing it on a friends instagram!  I’ve been putting a dentist visit off for quite some time because it’s hard to figure out who to trust and is personable while also being fairly priced. All of the staff are so friendly and the best thing about it is it’s right down the street from me in Encino off Ventura! Plus Dr. Safaei has got some killer dance moves haha

This is perhaps the first dental office I’ve ACTUALLY enjoyed going to. No shenanigans with billing like my previous dentist (who were repeat offenders), no issues with scheduling, no problems with having unnecessary procedures pushed on me. My husband and I have been going here for a couple of years now, and we’re not leaving anytime soon!

Usually I hold off on going to the dentist until the damage is too severe to ignore. Dr. Safaei immediately makes you feel comfortable by telling a joke or story to relax you. Every time I come in we always laugh and laugh before he works on my teeth. It really helps offset whatever discomfort might be heading my way. But the Doctor doesn’t just make you feel comfortable. He has helped change my smile for the better! We have created a specific plan to get my teeth back to the bright and shiny way they should be. I can not recommend Dr. Safaei enough. He is the Dentist for non-loving dentist people!

Dr. Safaei is awesome. Great office and welcoming staff. Everybody there makes going to the dentist something to look forward to. I had a great time. When did you ever in your life fathom someone saying they had a good time at the dentist?! Well I did. Can’t wait to go back.

Elevate Dental was really as good as it gets.  Dr. Safaei and his staff are very professional.  Getting my teeth cleaned and doing regular check ups have kept my teeth sparkling clean.  Also very reasonable pricing.  One thing is you can sense that they care about their clients.  And that really make a difference when you are apprehensive about going. Office is very clean and has a nice relaxing view of the green mountains which helps relax you 🙂 5 stars for sure!

Convenient office. The staff is really nice and accommodating. The dentist is friendly and personable. Really down to earth and spent time to get to know me. He explained the advantages of different treatment options and gave his recommendations. I appreciated that they didn’t charge for the consultation and after asking my questions I decided that the dental implant was my best option. I felt really comfortable and feel like I was in good hands.Oh and they have fun little books in the lobby. Wish I had more time cuz I barely had to wait! Lolol
