I started searching for a new dental place after the last 2 I went to didn’t make me want to go back. I had driven by GDG a few times and decided to give them a try. On my initial visit they were very nice and helpful, and the thing I liked was that they didn’t try to pressure me to get services done. They explained what I needed and helped me understand my dental insurance. I decided then and there that I had found the right dental group, and will definitely go back to get my work done with them. I recommend them to anyone who is interested and I most certainly will refer them to my family and friends

This place is awesome. From the moment I walked in you could tell everyone was smiling even with mask on. Super nice everyone was very informative of what was going to happen and what was going on. The dentist is super nice gets straight to the point and does not make you feel bad. The care coordinator is awesome she works with you to figure out a plan and does not make you feel bad if you can’t afford it or you don’t want a certain treatment. Overall they are affordable and one of the best dentist office I have been to in my 24 years of life.

My family and I have been going to Gardena Dental Group for the last 20+ years. The staff is super friendly and they make you feel like family. Every time I go I’m always in and out with the best dental care. One time they even handed out free teeth whitening kits after 2 consecutive visits without having any cavities. They’re professional and informative. I highly recommend Gardena Dental Group for any one looking for a dentist in the area

★★★★★

As a child I was traumatized by a dentist, so going to the dentist was a horrifying feeling. Then I had no choice; I broke a tooth and had to go to the dentist. I went to a few dentists but I never went back a second time. Here at Gardena Dental Group, everyone was so caring and understanding of my trauma. I had a great experience and was so happy with the results. I will definitely be going back to Gardena Dental Group whenever I need a dentist. Thank you everyone at Gardena Dental Group for your patience and understanding of my phobia.

In December of 2019 I came in for a crown and Dr. Saz was so amazing in explaining the process. So I decided to make this place my go to dentist. Month later I came in  for general visit and again Dr. Saz was amazing at explaining everything that he was seeing in my X-rays. He explained the procedures that needed to be done in order to help my teeth stay strong and healthy. He answered all my questions that I had and made sure I understood what was happening with my teeth. Jessica who is their financial coordinator broke down the bill so I could really understand what my insurance was covering, and what I had to pay out of pocket so big thanks and amazing job to her

I’ve been coming to Gardena Denral Group for about 10 years and I love it here! They’re staff is always friendly and they always greet you with a smile. They are very flexible when I have to reschedule and that really helps a lot when you have such busy schedule. Very nice place to come to, knowing they will take good care of you makes your experience less scary lol (most people don’t like the dentist)

I was referred to this dental office by my sister in law, she has been coming here for years. After not being happy with the service of our previous dental office, I have to say this dentist office is great! The staff and Dr Amir Saz are very welcoming. I have to say that I was impressed with the service and attention to detail given to the patient. I would recommend anyone that is looking to change dental providers to give this Dental office a chance, you will not regret the decision

All the staff at Gardena Dental Group are very friendly & informative ! They make the process of getting an appointment super easy and convenient. Whenever I go , there is no wait time and I’m seen right away. The dentists make you feel comfortable & answer any questions that you have. One thing I love is that most of the staff speak Spanish ! This makes it easier when my mom comes in for her appointments because she is given all the information she needs and it makes her feel better knowing that she is able to ask questions. I would definitely recommend Gardena Dental Group !

I’ve been going there for almost 10 years now. Myself and my 2 kids. It took awhile to find a great dentist that I was comfortable with. Now, let’s be honest, nobody likes going to the dentist, however, they are amazing! They have THE friendliest staff and provide great customer service. One time I had to get crowns put in and they went above and beyond to cater to my needs when it came to scheduling and payments. I highly recommend them, and if you’re looking for a great dentist for you and/or your family, look no further.

Lupe R. from Harbor Gateway North, Gardena, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I would highly recommend this dentist to everyone!! They are understanding and they explain you the problem you have and what they can do to solve with right away. The doctors are very nice to you and they are very organized with appointments or scheduling for appointments. The first time I stepped in I was amazed , when I talk to the receptionist to tell my problem she explained what can the doctor do to fix it and she was very specific with her explanation and she had the same problem as I did and knowing how her problem was solved it convinced me that I should make an appointment. But they have the best customer service I ever seen.

This place has the friendliest and most welcoming staff. They make you feel really comfortable oppose to those other awkward/out of place facilities. I appreciate that they have a kids waiting area with toys, nice touch. They don’t take long to call your name for your turn. They are very accommodating as well and are willing to work with you. The facility is really clean. I completely recommend to everyone and their moms.

I have been going to Gardena dental group for three years now. I have always been treated with respect and professionalism. Dr. Amir is fantastic and his passion for dentistry is noticeable. Cleanings are precise and not time consuming. The receptionist staff are very welcoming and greet you with a warm smile. Larhonda, does a great job cleaning your teeth and works diligently with her helpful assistant Christina. Every visit is consistent and have never had any issues! Thank you for the awesome service!

I love Gardena Dental group! The staff is always so friendly and treat you like family. I’ve been coming here for over 5 years and have never had an issue. They’re always very punctual with appointments and apologize if they ever take longer to see you, which rarely happens and if it does they accommodate you by putting netflix on for you so you never really feel like it’s taking forever. The hygienist Rhonda is amazing btw super friendly knowledgeable. I would trust my dental work on anybody else but them.

★★★★★

This place is awesome. I have never felt more comfortable in an office ever! I called to make an appointment for my 6 yr old last week and they were able to get us in on the day I needed! (Which is rare when making appointments.) We came in and were seen on time. The staff is so kind and polite. Lissette and Dr. Saz saw my son and they were great! He is pretty skeptical of doctor offices and had questions about every drill and machine he saw. They were very patient in explained everything to him. So glad we got referred here.

I’ve been to many dental offices and have not found one that compares to Gardena dental, they never let me miss my appt., they follow up with reminders by text message, and a phone call, it’s like they truly care…  The lady which attends to me is Marina, no matter how many times I’ve gone she always welcomes me with a great smile! You can just hear in her voice how happy and cheery she is, it’s like a breath of fresh air, such a positive person, always makes me feel comfortable and sets my mind at ease knowing I’m about to get some work done. I actually look at the positive side of the dentist now, because of her 🙂 They have a kid area with video games and toys which is also awesome. The place is very clean; I wouldn’t change to another dentist office even if I lived further. The wait is never long.

The Gardena Dental Group is an amazing dental office. From the staff to any treatment and that are needed they are wonderful. Getting appointments is extremely quick. I had a treatment plan that needed many variations of appointments and it was all completed within 1 month. I’ve recommended many people to this particular office and will continue to do so. They explain everything from cost to individual treatment plans and are willing to work with you. Thank you Gardena Dental Group

★★★★★

Probably one of the most well-rounded dental experiences I’ve had; it was super easy to book my first exam, the waiting room and exam rooms are gorgeous, LITERALLY everyone is warm and friendly; including the Doctors; and my exam was very thorough. After my exam a very patient young lady sat down with me, answered all of my questions, helped make a treatment plan that fit my schedule and my benefits and gave me a cute goodie bag with my next appointment scheduled. I think this office is great for anyone but especially those who may have anxiety surrounding the dentist because they truly make it a comfortable experience.

I have been coming to Gardena Dental for over 25 years. Their customer service never disappoints, the office is always clean, the staff is very knowledgeable whenever there is a issue with my teeth and always able to help, even in emergency situations. I’ve recommended my dentist to everyone over the years, this review is long over due. If you’re looking for a dentist that cares, this is where you want to go! Dr Amir and Dr Phan are the best!

In the past I have been wary of dentists in the same way I have been of mechanics: they try to scare you into getting work done, but you’re not sure if you really needed it. You end up getting the work done, but you’re left with doubt because you’re not sure if it was absolutely necessary, and on top of that is the cost of everything! Well, on my first visit I really didn’t know what I was getting myself into, and honestly I was s little nervous–it had been years since my last visit to a dentist. While on the chair in the examination room, I swear I could hear my mom’s voice warning me not to let them convince me to have all my teeth pulled out! After about 30 minutes in, I began to relax. Dr. Amir was kind, super cool and not pushy. He went over my X-rays pretty much tooth by tooth–I appreciated that– and told me what needed to be done and what was urgent. Most of it I already knew because I was experiencing some type of discomfort in those areas. Surprisingly, the diagnosis wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be (no unnecessary recommendations for tooth extractions, yay). I told them what I could afford, and we set up a plan and timeframe to get the work done. My second visit was a little longer, as they had began working on a couple of crowns. That day I observed how well the staff worked together. Every person that I have interacted with at Gardena Dental Group has been super friendly, cheerful, informative and everyone seems to like their job, which is a big deal! Anyway, I’m glad I found this place and would definitely recommend it to anyone who feels uneasy/unsure about dentists.

I can tell you that the service here exceeded expectation and established a hope and optimism that did not exist in me before walking into their establishment…as someone who hasnt been to the dentist in a while it was important that my reentry into a better way of life was welcome and Gardena Dental delivered in droves with great customer service and a level of comfort during the examinations leading up to my anticipated procedure…my kids will be future patients due to the trust that has been lamented…keep doing what youre doing Jackie, Matt,and staff…you guys are awespme!!!!!

Im a recent patient here and was years without going to any dentist whatsoever. On getting my job benefits and searching a close dentist in the area I came upon this dental group. I was treated with respect from the moment I walked in. An incredibly helpful receptionist and staff made my nerves go away. The dentist himself Doctor Amir Saz has an amazing way of making you feel at ease and also explains things to a T. Im hooked on this place & won’t be making any changes on my dentist after my experience with this group. A great place to get your teeth looked after, I highly recommend these professionals!

I’ve been coming to Gardenia Dental for about 2 years now and the service has been great and very professional. The doctors and staff assess your needs and draw up a plan with everything you need done and thoroughly explain why you need each procedure and the alternatives, the cost, and how much of the cost your insurance will cover. I’ve gotten all 4 wisdom teeth removed at once and it was surprisingly quick, relatively painless, and I had no complications afterward. I need a lot of work done and I’m happy to complete my treatments here.

I highly recommend scheduling your next appointment with Gardena Dental Group! I have been a customer here’s since I was just a little girl, possibly around 4 years old. As far as I can remember, the staff and doctors have always been friendly and comforting. So comforting that I was always asking my mom when the next time I can go to the dentist!! I might be one of the few people that is excited to see the dentist and that’s all thanks to Dr. Amir Saz and all his staff who have always treated me like family.

I had been suffering from some really bad pain in the back of my mouth. My mom had told me about a dentist office she found up the street that was the best dentist office she had ever been to. No longer being able to stand the pain I have in to my mom and went. It was the best decision I made! The staff were extremely friendly and professional and they made me feel comfortable. That’s saying a lot, I can’t be comfortable at the dentist! The doctor came in and gave me my diagnosis and then I went to speak with the finance specialist. She was very friendly and sweet. She broke down every procedure I would need and explained the prices. They are EXTREMELY affordable!! I have my follow up appointment coming up soon and I can’t wait to be helped by such an amazing staff again.

So on a Friday I had extreme tooth pain so I delt with it until Monday, that’s when I went to my normal dentist and they said that the doctor couldn’t see me till a few days, that I had to make an appointment. I was furious it was an emergency and I was in great pain over the weekend. My brother-in-law told me to go here so I went that Monday morning and they quickly helped me and were extremely kind. They saw how much pain I was in and were so kind the doctor even tried to calm me down by telling me old college storys. I would definitely go here again. They staff are A+ and the doctors here are A++

I am also very happy with how friendly all the staff is in the office. Thank you Gardena Dental for helping me with my smile!
