Geller Dentistry
Benjamin Geller, DDS:
Practice Profile Page

Dr. Ben gave me my confidence in my smile back. I am beyond grateful that I was referred to Dr. Ben for a full mouth reconstruction case that most prosthodontist I consulted with refused to take on. Dr. Ben is a very thorough, attentive, and detailed dentist. He created the best plan for my teeth and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I have also met Dr. Gloria from my frequent visits to the office, and she is very kind. Also the front desk ladies Jacque and Stephanie did a great job at making sure I was properly scheduled throughout the entire process. Thank you, Dr Ben & Team!

If you are looking for a dentist, you can stop …. NOW. Although I haven’t tried Gloria Geller, Dr. Ben Geller honestly has to be my all-time favorite dentist! It never ceases to amaze me that I don’t have pain when he administers the shots, when he drills, or even after the anesthesia wears off. And that’s not even the best part. His personality, demeanor, sensitivity, friendly nature are exactly what you want in a dentist and even a friend. I’m so glad he is younger than me because he will now officially be my dentist until I’m dead. And he was the BEST with my 4-year old. He has young kids too, so he knows exactly how to handle them. I can not recommend Geller Dentistry highly enough!

Cracked my veneer on a Tuesday night, was seen by 11am the next morning. Dr. Benjamin and Dr. Gloria Geller were absolutely wonderful. They showed me all my options, discussed ways to make my problem become less likely to occur in the future, and were absolutely gentle and technical dentists. Every step along the way they explained what they were doing and why. I didn’t feel left out, or like it was just a quick job they had to get done to move on to the next patient. I have been to the dentist now 4x in the last month to permanently fix my veneer, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with their services. Lovely office, lovely dental assistants and lovely receptionists. Very generous practice who I wouldn’t be afraid to recommend to anyone. As I left, I was told ‘welcome to our family’ by their wonderful receptionist – and I feel just that.

As an actress the first thing industry people notice is your smile. Dr. Geller and his beautiful wife are incontrovertibly the best dentists I have ever encountered – making you feel safe and comfortable in a normally anxiety provoking environment. They calmly explain every detail of  a procedure and follow up – unlike any other dentist I have visited. I wouldn’t trust my mouth to anyone else! In addition, my dental hygienist Allison Bailey is absolutely the most dedicated and professional young lady one could ever have the good fortune to meet. AMAZING is an understatement when it comes to Geller Dentistry.

Update 08/27: Its been many months since Dr. Geller crowned my molar and I can chew and eat without any pain or discomfort. I can have my cool ranch Doritos again without worry. Many years ago I cracked my #3 molar. The rear inner corner came shear off; needless to say the pain was tremendous. I was staying in a small rural town in northern Brazil, which would lead one to believe that I would be SOL. Luckily, Dr. Geller was there with me. We were both volunteers on a humanitarian/medical aid mission. While Dr. Geller already had his hands full with the locals, he managed to give me a temporary fix (which lasted me years). Years later after the doctor finishes dental school, then prosthodontics, gets married and has two beautiful children, I am getting fitted with a porcelain composite crown in his new practice. (The temporary fix in Brazil, years earlier was still there and finally ran it’s course.) I don’t particularly enjoy the dentist, but Dr. Geller was very accomodating by explaining the procedure before and during. I really appreciate being talked through what is happening; it relaxes my neurotic nature. Before the final crown was placed he had me go through a much needed deep cleaning with his dental hygienist; she plays relaxing tunes on the radio during the sessions. It’s very convenient to have a one-stop shop in my busy schedule.  The crown is working out like a champ. Ice cream, hot coffee, chicken cartilage, no problem. Dr. Geller is a true mench. His wife is the other Dr. Geller and like her husband I am lucky to call them both my dentists and my friends. It’s safe to guess that Dr. Geller has been a lifelong friend and you don’t have to be a mind reader to guess that now it’s my privilege and pleasure to also be a lifelong patient.

This review is long overdue! But as I’m facing some additional dental work, I’m reminded of how amazing Dr. Ben Geller is!! I came to Dr. Geller in the hopes of fixing a major “snaggle tooth” that I’ve hated since I was a kid. It was a canine that jutted out, had a weird shape, and just looked bad. I had done a little research into veneers, and man were they expensive. But I really had my heart set on fixing this snaggle. So, I looked for a highly rated cosmetic dentist and found this darling dentist’s office in Larchmont (in such a cute little house, these dentists had to have good taste;) and found Dr. Geller. The office is clean and bright and comfy, which immediately put me at ease (my last dentist’s office literally had an empty fish tank with mold just everywhere, no kidding). And the front desk staff is SO sweet and welcoming. After thinking I hit the jackpot, I remember thinking, oh crap, this place must be crazy expensive. Moving along. (I’ll fast forward through some of the general dentist stuff) Dr. Geller examined my snaggle, and I braced for the estimate for the veneer and associated work (I’m thinking $1300+), or for him to tell me that the only option was something like braces. BUT he said, you know, I can fix this with some bonding, it’ll look just as good as a veneer, cost a few hundred dollars. WHAT?! I don’t know what was more shocking, that he could do this simple fix for such a low price, or that I had actually found an honest dentist!! (I don’t have dental insurance, and have been to office that tried to upsell me on everything they could. Gross). Fast forward to YES, PLEASE! The tooth was prepped for bonding (super quick and painless process, didn’t even need novicaine, score). And then repaired. You guys, I’m not exaggerating. It was PERFECT. Nothing felt out of place or rough or looked fake. It was as if my snaggle tooth was NEVER a snaggle tooth. I’ll include a photo. It all took, I think, less than a half hour. Dr. Geller is a PERFECTIONIST, which is something a dentist absolutely should be. He got that tooth perfect. It’s a freaking miracle. So, of course, I went back for some work on a filling in back. The new filling was seamless. In the past, I have had to go back to dentists because I could feel the filling, or it was rough, poking etc. But NOPE, because Dr. Geller is a perfectionist, he got it right the FIRST time (imagine that). I have since gone for cleanings (the hygienists are lovely), and have never once felt pressured to get this or that procedure done. It’s just so wonderful to find a FANTASTIC dentist who is HONEST and a PERFECTIONIST. On top of that, the thought outside the box on a way to fix my snaggle that was painless, literally like a thousand dollars cheaper than what I thought, and was just a perfect result. I couldn’t recommend this office more!

Dr. Geller is the most patient kind and compassionate dentist you would ever find. I usually have to be peeled off the ceiling for a simple tooth cleaning. He very patiently explains that I should not be feeling anything. If I still feel something ANYTHING even if it’s not pain  it’s on him. He gives shot after shot until I can no longer feel any sensation and relax and not be afraid of pain. I always thought that everybody was enduring some pain and I was just a weak scaredy-cat. If you have to have dental work I could not recommend him more. He’s a perfectionist also. My porcelain crowns feel completely natural and comfortable.

Well, I had been going to the same dentist for the past 20 something years and was fairly happy but I decided to try Geller dentistry as they are local and I took my daughter there.  What a great decision I made!  Starting with the office itself, incredibly clean, beautifully decorated with welcoming style…Moving on to the office staff – Amazing, probably the most friendly and professional staff you could wish to meet, Jackie is so wonderfully warm and helpful from the start, making that first appointment to checking out an easy and pleasant experience.  The other staff are equally as helpful and friendly and really make you not only feel welcome but also valued which is very important to me. Moving on to the doctors themselves… I have seen both of these doctors and couldn’t have felt more taken care of.  Dr. Ben found what had been bothering me even though my other dentist couldn’t find it, and executed the treatment plan with finesse.  Dr. Gloria took great care with the treatment, it turned out that I did need a crown as there was decay that the other dentist couldn’t find.  It was thorough and painless, yes, painless!  I didn’t feel a thing from the injections to the drilling – she made me feel very comfortable and I knew I was in expert hands from the start to finish.   In closing, I couldn’t recommend these doctors more, everything about them is great, I cannot find one thing that concerned me or I didn’t like.  I have found my new dentists and couldn’t be happier.

Great dentist!  My teeth were bleeding for 6 months; blood in my mouth every morning and every time I brushed. I was recommended to this doctor after trying different dentists. I’m not from LA, so sometimes it’s hard to know what you’re going to get. I also hate the dentist because I dread the pain involved. I decided to man up and try Dr. Geller. I was thourougly impressed. He dove straight into a deep cleaning on my first visit, made me as comfortable as possible, and went to town. From my past experience it’s always been a dental assistant cleaning my teeth and here it was the Dr. himself doing all the work and not just looking me over once and walking out. He told me my teeth might bleed after we got done. However, they have not. The first night I saw drastic improvements in my oral health. Bleeding has subsided and gums are no longer puffy. He really dug in and did a fantastic job. I couldn’t be happier. I’ll be going back to see Dr. Geller and now I’m almost looking forward to it.

Geller Dentistry saved the day again! I live in Oregon and traveled 1000 miles to visit the best of the best, Geller Dentistry. After experiencing pain in my mouth for weeks I reached out to Geller Dentistry for help. They got me in right away so I booked a flight and went in for a visit. Dr. Geller removed an old filling and discovered an infection. Then he did his magic and an hour later I was pain free. What a relief. And everyone in the office was so sweet and friendly. Thank you for everything. Geller Dentistry is my dentist for life no matter where I live.

I first visited Geller Dentistry to get a check up and see what I could do about having some calculus removal done. I’m originally from VA and went to a dentist out there where they not only rude, but they quoted me 2500$ to do this procedure (did not have insurance at the time). I had a feeling they were trying to rip me off. Anyway after seeing Dr. Geller, he explained that I didn’t really need the procedure they suggested, and that they could do the removal with their hygienist for a fraction of that price and get the same results. The dental hygienist who did it was awesome ! It was quick and painless. And saving that much money made it even better:) Since then I’ve went back to get some fillings and those turned out great. I’m also gonna get some bonding done soon to reshape my bottom row of teeth and fill in some spaces. Dr. Geller is so nice and made a really cool mold for my teeth to show me what they will look like with the bonding. I’m very excited and have already recommended this place to a bunch of my friends and anyone I meet who needs a dentist. Happy staff of people, good music and a very welcoming vibe!

Dr. Geller is my hero! I came to him earlier this year as I was born without my lateral incisors and needed a reliable prosthodontist. I had been wearing the same flipper with teeth on it for almost ten years so it was time to upgrade my smile. After having been to a dentist in town that quoted me over $25k to give me full veneers, I was a little nervous to meet with Dr. Geller, but he immediately put me at ease with his kindness and clear attention to detail. I met with him for a consultation where we discussed every option for replacing my teeth and we came up with a thorough plan for my smile makeover – that did not involve having to shave down every tooth to make way for veneers. We decided on cantilever bridges that would cover both K9 teeth and have my laterals attached. His office also worked with me financially so I could pay for the cost out of pocket over the time we worked together, not all at once! Not to mention, the whole “project” (between whitening, reshaping my premolar teeth, getting my new permanent teeth) cost less than 1/3 of what the other dentist quoted me! I am so thrilled with the results – they look very natural and I am truly so much more confident in my smile!! Dr. Geller is a PERFECTIONIST and most importantly, a kind soul. He truly cares about his patients and his work. 11/10 would recommend. Also, all the technicians are super nice, as is Jacquie at the front desk 🙂

Dr Geller did an Amazing job with my Teeth. Instead of Veneers I opted for a Composite Material which all I can say is that he is an Artist and True Professional with the result he achieved, creating the best smile for me. I am extremely pleased, happy and Blessed with a smile which gives me so much confidence now. They not only look natural but comfortable due to the Perfectionist Dr Geller is and a person who puts so much pride in his work to make people very happy. Thank You Doc.. I would highly recommend this practice. Every member of staff are Amazing.

As a 51-year-old veteran who’s “been around”,  I can easily say Geller Dentistry is my overall favourite clinic – BAR NONE!Unambiguous “mom-&-pop” dynamic; welcoming enough to put even the most fearful patient at ease (I’m here to tell you!) With an emphasis on comfort, their nicely carpeted waiting room features free wi-fi, ample seating, and plenty of magazines. The fireplace (even when cool) promotes a calming effect to any area where visitors might feel anxious. I always prefer when a staff is comfortable with each other and that is very true at Geller Dentistry. Location: Geller Dentistry is located on Larchmont Blvd just a frisbee toss north of Beverly – the small clinic is staffed by half a dozen warm (very) human beings. They take myriad forms of insurance (including my own!) After my initial visit, their front desk personnel clearly explained everything to me, told me what to expect from my carrier, and gave me an easy-to-read spreadsheet and diagram of my teeth so I’d not forget. BIG 20 Points! Geller Dentistry didn’t do work I didn’t ask for. I went in because I needed a tooth pulled, and that’s just what they did! I was so pleased with my first experience, I’m returning soon for more work i really “should” get done.  So that’s it! An immaculately clean & well-ordered environment, staffed by compassionate knowledgeable people, and if you’re very lucky – you might just get a free toothbrush as well. Not only would I recommend Geller Dentistry – but I already have – to two friends, my wife and anyone who will listen. If you’re in need of an excellent dentist at a reasonable rate – you won’t find a better fit than Geller Dentistry GO NOW! You’ll be delighted to have one less thing to worry about. 🙂 I’m a regular patient, and I’ve not been compensated in any way for this review.

I only met Dr. Ben Geller a couple weeks ago, but I’m already convinced that he is a tooth wizard and my personal savior. I used to have nice teeth that I took for granted. Then, about 4 weeks ago, I had a freak accident while traveling, in which I fainted and face-planted onto a tile floor, bashing in my top teeth and breaking the four most front. It was unimaginably traumatizing. Beyond the pain and discomfort, I was devastated to be disfigured in such a conspicuous place. When I learned at the hospital that reconstruction of my mouth would likely take over a year, I cried my eyes out and swore I would quit my job, break all social ties, and move in with my parents to hide my face until it could be fixed. Fast forward two weeks- I’m back in LA. (In a narrow-minded decision, my parents rejected the solid plan I’d crafted while on morphine drip.) I’m referred to Dr. Geller, who amazingly is able to squeeze me in same day. The office he shares with his wife is lovey, his staff, reassuring and genuine. We discuss treatment options, and immediately I know I’m in great hands. He’s patient in explaining everything (multiple times to this dental procedure newbie) and it’s clear he takes great pride in his work. For the first time since the accident, I feel my anxiety lift as I walk out of his office. One week later, after having my two most shattered teeth extracted, I return for my flipper, and it fits and matches perfectly. These are NOT your grandma’s dentures: totally convincing, super svelte. At our follow-up appointment, after my telling him about an important conference I have coming up in a week, Dr. Geller offers to do some bonding on my two front teeth that were chipped and looking kind of gray and lifeless after being bashed around in my mouth, but somehow still hanging on. About an hour later, he passes me the mirror, and I can’t believe the transformation. This is just a very temporary holdover until we can do more lasting work, but it actually looks fantastic! I honestly think all but my closest friends wouldn’t be able to tell anything happened to me at this point. And my teeth were seriously JANKY just a week ago. I’ll post pictures later, but for now, you’ll just have to trust me that last week I looked like a meth addict and now you’d totally trust me to babysit your kids. In closing, if you’ve had a freak accident like me, or if you’re just clumsy AF and fell on your face without a good medical excuse, walk, no RUN (on second thought, maybe do walk, ya klutz) to Dr. Geller’s office. Cause why get your busted up teeth fixed by a regular dentist when you can see a tooth wizard?
