PATIENT REVIEWS

“I was truly impressed with your nice facility and the caring staff and friendly can do attitude and smiles. The TV Monitor with the beautiful relaxing nature scenes was the best I have ever seen. Dr Dekano is TRULY AMAZING, as well as the front desk staff were incredible on all 3 visits I made to your office. I love the fact that you bill for one visit and can return within 10 days to have a follow up or check it out again as part of the original payment. Plus the insurance person was able to verify they take my insurance while I was on the phone. All this adds up to customer service you rarely see these days! THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!!! You have a customer for life.”

I needed an emergency extraction of a decaying wisdom tooth, I had been to ER the night before and was exhausted! I called them and they got me in the next morning! the office was easy to find.She was so patient and caring I want her to be my primary! Even the assistant was very attentive and caring! We talked about personal things and they really made me feel safe. With all this great care in the end they gave me a nice discount as I had no insurance at the time and am a single dad, thanks you Dr Dekano See you all soon!

I had a truly AMAZING experience with Dr. Dekano and her staff. she’s a true professional and her team is highly trained. I needed to get veneers due to my front upper teeth being chipped from a car accident I had last year April 2016 and I’m glad I went with Dr. Dekano. This was my first time getting veneers and I was a bit nervous, but Dr. Dekano explained the process in great detail and assured me my new smile would look even better than before. She was right! I absolutely LOVE my new smile! Words can’t describe how happy I am to be able to smile again with full confidence and not be embarrassed or self conscious about my chipped teeth. This dental work has changed my life! I feel amazing and feel incredible every time I smile! I could not be happier with the results. The pictures speak for themselves. Dr. Dekano and her team cared and went above and beyond for me during my entire veneers process and I cannot thank team enough and they now have patient for life. If you’re looking for a professional, knowledgeable, kind, and caring dental team, I highly recommend you give Dr. Dekano a call. You will not be disappointed.

Dr Dekano,is a dentist I recommend to a lot of friends and family,she is very good at what she does.I must say I hate going to the dentist cause all I could think about is pain.Dr Dekano had the chance to pull my wisdom teeth and I was nervous about this work being done to my teeth.Dr. Dekano made me feel comfortable and at ease,and had me walking out of there in minutes,with no pain.Now get my daily check up’s and I’m happy to see her every time I step foot in her office.

Doctor Dekano is absolutely incredible. After years of having bad dental experiences i was “shopping dentists” and got recommended to Dekano. Going into the office everyone was very kind then i met the doc and she had such a light hearted and kind personality so it put me at ease instantly. Then talking about my teeth you can tell this isn’t just a job but she’s passionate about it. She put together a plan that was best for my budget and super accommodating. She will for sure be my dentist for life. she’s a great women and very down to earth!

let me start by saying I have had nothing but great experiences during my visits. I first went to Dr. Dekano few month ago when I started experiencing severe sensitivity on several of my teeth. I had been having regular cleanings at my last dentist but have always had some sensitivity and soreness of gums time to time and never got a clear explanation of why or what could be done. Dr. Dekano clearly explained to me my gum condition and status of my oral health and what could be done to improve. I have had recession of gums on several teeth for a while but it was never explained why it was happening and how it could be treated, even prevented. After having few treatments at her office the sensitivity is gone, gums are much healthier with rarely any bleeding. By the way she explained to me that it was important to floss, especially if your gums bleed which many people dont know and tend to not floss because their gums bleed. She explained that once the gums get healthy the bleeding will stop and flossing is key in the process of healing and keeping the gums healthy. And surely enough my gums dont bleed anymore during flossing. I highly recommend Dr. Dekano. Her approach to dentistry is from a preventative standpoint and she puts a lot of emphasis on what can be done to prevent dental problems, rather than just fixing them and waiting for them to re-occur. She doesn’t try to talk you into unnecessary treatments. She clearly explains what needs treatment and why. Her staff is very friendly and her office is very comfortable. She has a very gentle touch and her treatments are always painless, especially the injections (to my relief). Some i dont even feel at all! A;l n all Dr. Dekano is an amazing dentist, as well as person,  and i am happy to have her as my dentist.

Amazing experience. Came to Dr. Dekano for a second opinion after seeing another dentist for a check up and problem I been having with a specific tooth. The exam was very comprehensive and thorough. I was very impressed with Dr. Dekanos knowledge and ability to explain treatment options. I finally understood what and why each treatment was recommended and this gave me the ability to decide and go into my treatment with confidence. Took a lot of pressure off and uneasiness of not knowing what was going on. I’m almost done with my treatment and can’t say enough about Dr. Dekanos work. She is amazing, very caring and gentle and the work looks fantastic. I will post an update when my work is completed. Glad I found this place and thankful for Dr. Dekano being my dentist.

I visited Dr Dekanos office today for emergency. My tooth started hurting this morning after biting into something hard. The tooth had existing cap on it and was bothering me time to time but never like this before. I called Dr. Dekanos office, after a friends recommendation, and asked if i could be seen today.  Even though she had full schedule for the day the receptionist managed to find me time to be seen which i was very thankful for. Dr. Dekano and her staff were great. I was treated very nicely and promptly. Dr Dekano was amazing. She clearly explained what was happening with my tooth and what needed to be done.  She got me out of pain and the tooth stabilized. I will be returning to finish my treatment before I return to Italy.  I am very happy that i listened to my friends recommendation and very thankful to have Dr. Dekano doing my dental treatment.

We had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Dekano and her staff. My daughter was very anxious about the appointment and any procedure, but Dr. Dekano was very patient with her and spend a lot of time trying to calm her down, the staff was very helpful and kind and always available to help. Dr. Dekano is very professional, she takes the time to explain what needs to be done and provides valuable advice , It’s not easy to find a good dentist for your kids, I highly recommend Dr. Dekano and her staff for kids and adults.Thank you Dr. for seeing my child in a time like this, with this virus going on.

Just wanted to follow up with an update of my experience and treatment with Dr. Dekano. I am happy to say my restorative treatment is complete and I am extremely happy with the results. My treatment was done in a timely manner and more importantly at a high level in correct sequence. I have had previous experiences with dentists who I felt rushed the treatment, trying to do everything in the shortest time possible. This sounds great but as I have learned the hard way not the best or proper way to approach medical treatment. Each procedure has a time frame for doing and healing and as I have learned proper sequence. This is why some of my past treatment has failed and also why some were not done correctly. It sounds great and makes you feel great when you hear “we can do everything in just one appointment” or when places advertise single visit treatments, but this is a major sign to avoid those place. Dr. Dekano properly explained all my treatment needs and planned and sequenced a treatment plan for me which addressed my dental needs in the correct fashion. I knew why and when each treatment needed to be done and what outcome to expect. I was engaged in my treatment and for the first time felt like I was part of the actual treatment and had a role in it. Not just some test subject or something like that. I am very happy with my work and treatment. As I said, my treatment is completed and now is the maintenance phase. Dr. Dekano clearly explained my role and what i need to do to properly care for and maintain my teeth. I want to thank Dr. Dekano for her help and say it is by far the best dental experience I have had. I am thankful to have found her and to have her as my dentist.

Been a patient of Dr. Dekano for a few month now. Never been happier with my dentist and more importantly more confident in my dentist. Dr. Dekano is very knowledgeable and professional. Eager to engage me in my treatment needs and explain their necessity. I have full confidence in my treatment. Her bedside manner is exceptional and her work is truly amazing. Oh and did I mention she has the gentlest touch. A very happy patient here.

I was experiencing weird sinus issues over the last year and after trying everything under the sun, I finally decided to get my wisdom teeth checked out. I don’t have insurance or a dentist, so I took to GOOGLE to find one, and I honestly could not have been luckier! Everyone at the office was knowledgeable and very friendly, especially Dr. Dekano. She discovered my problem almost immediately, removed the problem wisdom tooth without any pain whatsoever, and stayed with me for a long afterwards answer all of my questions. The staff carefully went over payment plans with me, and always made me feel that my health came first. Even the next day when I had a couple more questions, I called the office and Dr. Dekano called me back herself and gave me her personal number if I had any more questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to go to Dr. Dekano again. Who knew going to the dentist could be such a great experience!

Lela Dekano has been my dentist for years.  She is amazing at her job, and I never feel any pain.  She tells me exactly what needs to be done and prioritizes my needs for me.  She is a lovely, sweet and honest lady.  I would definitely recommend anyone to go to her in a heartbeat.  She’s fantastic. I’m not exactly sure why Jennifer J. had a problem with this dentist, but she wrote that Dr. Dekano’s office was “sorta ghetto”.  Sounds like the office isn’t the only thing that is “sorta ghetto”.  I’m not sure how a dentist can be a scam artist.  Her office is in Beverly Hills, for people who are into that kind of thing, in a very nice building.

I generally go to Dr. George Bovili for my check ups and restorative needs but I had an emergency last month and needed to be seen right away. Dr. Dekano was able to get me in the same day for my toothache. When I arrive, I didn’t have to wait long to be seated. After a thorough exam and x-ray, she was able to diagnose the problem. I made a follow-up appointment to have my tooth fixed. In the meantime, she prescribed antibiotics to help with the swelling. Just like everyone else, I get anxious going to the dentist, but I’m at ease whenever I go to this office. The office is clean and the staff is great. Dr. Dekano was gentle, explained my treatment plan in detail and answered all my questions. I trust her and Dr. G with all of my dental needs and highly recommend this practice!

Dr. Dekano has been giving me expert dental treatment since I was in the 9th grade.  I’m 30 now and in the past 16 years I’ve always had an accurate assessment of care, completeness of procedures from cleanings to root canals, and gentleness of touch by this dentist.  I stopped fearing the anesthesia needle since after the first time I came to realize how painless it is when in caring hands. If there is one thing I know it is that I’m constructively critical to the maximum extent.  Dr. Dekano simply leaves no rock unturned when checking the health of my teeth and managing very cost effective strategies to maintain their health and my smile.  If that isn’t enough Dr. Dekano listens to understand, she is very patient, easy to talk to, gives great advice, and is always pleasant to be around.  Hope this review helps the reader.

Very happy I found Dr. Dekano. She is amazing at what she does. Always makes me feel comfortable during my treatments and the results are always great. More so she takes her time to explain each treatment in every detail. This is extremely important to me because in the past I have felt like I was being taken advantage and didn’t fully understand what was happening and why. Now I walk into each procedure feeling comfortable that I am aware of whats happening and why. The staff is amazing as well and very welcoming. I finally feel like I am getting treated as a patient rather than a customer

I have been going to Dr. Dekano for years now and she’s amazing. I remember I had a huge headache and toothache and didn’t know what it was, so went to get it checked and she told me I needed to get my wisdoms removed. The same day she pulled all four wisdoms and it didnt take that long and didn’t hurt at all! I usually never like going to the dentist and I hate needles, but she was very caring, and it felt calming when she did the procedure. She talked to me most of the time to make sure I was ok. I feel relieved that I removed my wisdoms. If I didn’t do it the same day I probably would have procrastinated. I just hate the feeling of pain, but I was surprised it all happened fast and I didn’t feel a thing. She made it seem so easy, and it really was. I will be seeing her soon again to get my gums trimmed, and whitened. I guess my gums show a lot when I smile and she’s going to help fix it. Im excited because who doesn’t want to have a perfect smile?

I couldn’t be more happy to meet Dr Dekano in this state of emergency we have going on with this virus.. I was referred to Dr Dekano from a friend and he was able to talk to her to see if she can bring me in for a emergency. She did an amazing job getting me out of pain with no issues at all. The staff is also amazing and respectful and caring. I totally forgot i was in pain stepping into that clean office you can almost eat off the floor.. (FYI ill never do that, but you get the point) If your in need of dental treatment i really suggests you take the chance and see Dr dekano, you wont be disappointed.

I am currently post root-canal. So thankful I found these people! Third time in one year is a charm. Forget the BIG idea, that Dr. Dekano is an incredible dentist, amazing starts with the small things. I absolutely appreciated her expertise and skills, but let me tell you about her staff: from the moment I called to make my first appointment to the moment I left the building, they really know how to take care of their patients. I truly appreciate Inga at the front. She has a high standard of customer service. The place is neat, tidy, clean and more than anything, the people seem to enjoy working there! There is plenty of staff to look after you. I truly felt cared for and my favorite? I loved how Dr. Dekano took her time (never felt rushed) to explain to me the intricacies of my dental situation and the options. Never felt pushed, but rather, empowered to make my own decisions. Thanks team–truly appreciate your care.

Just wanted to share my great experience with Dr. Dekano. I just recently switched to her and I couldn’t be happier. I had a few dentist in the past and my share of dental work. Going to Dr. Dekano was an eye changing experience. From the very fist visit I felt engaged and informed about my dental treatment. The exam was very thorough and Dr. Dekano took her time to explain her finding and suggested treatments. I never felt like she was pushing me towards any kind of treatment and every thing she explained actually made sense, especially the gum measurements. Past dentist never even took the time to do them, I think only 1 actually took measurements. The rest seem to ignore going it. She explained why they were so important and what information they can give. This is how periodontal disease is diagnosed so make sure your dentist is taking measurement!! All my treatments went smoothly and she gives the best injections!! I didnt even feel a slight pinch and the lip shake she does really does the trick. She has very light and gentle hands. Her office hours are great, they go night and weekend appointments which really helped with work. Now I am almost done with my restorative treatment and will probably pursue some cosmetic treatments i discussed with her. Thank you Dr. Dekano for all your help and any readers out there that need a dentist i would strongly encourage you give her a try.

Had a cleaning with Dr. Lela Dekano today! I’m very thankful for her and her great staff. I absolutely hate going to the dentist but she makes it quick easy and painless. I was out in less than an hour! We consulted about Invisalign as well as some more cosmetic dentistry needs. I’m excited about seeing her and transforming my smile! She did some fillings back in 2014 and they are all still looking beautiful and feeling great. There is even one she thought may need a root canal but its been fine ever since her fillings! Her work is beautiful !

I have been Dr. Dekano’s patient for several years…she is the best! I have had mostly crowns down by her…she is gentle, meticulous, and explains each step along the way. Not only is she all that, but she is also very time efficient, and the procedure moves along smoothly without snags! I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a competent dentist!

I can’t say enough positive things about Dr. Lela Dekano and her staff! They are professional, yet personable and really care about my health and happiness. What i was really surprised about is that they where able to check my temperature cause of the COVID-19 (BEFORE I WAS SEEN). Working with Dr. Dekano and her staff is always a pleasant experience! They are great about working with my busy schedule and they always follow up with sincerity and thoughtfulness after my family’s procedures. I greatly recommend working with Dr. Dekano!!! I cant wait to get my smile back.

After hopping around from dishonest dentist to dishonest dentist in Los Angeles I finally got a referral from a trusted friend to see Dr Dekano. I literally just finished my visit. I was so happy with they’re professional and thorough practice that I’m literally writing this review outside their office in my car. The receptionist Inga was so sweet and accommodating with the scheduling and her customer service was a really good start when I first called to make the appointment. I showed up at 9:00am for my 9:30am appointment and I was seen right away. Travis the dental assistant was also very sweet and caring. The whole appointment was very productive and fast. Dr. Dekano ( most importantly) was very very throughout and gentle. The dentist I previously had seen a year ago wanted to perform different cavity repairs and a crown/root canal. Luckily I didn’t go back to him and instead I landed in Dr. Dekano hands. Through her I found out I didn’t need all that done. Her honesty and genuine care made me feel like I found the right dentist for me. I just referred my brother and he will be seen next week. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good honest dentist 🙂 thank you guys !

Can’t say enough about Dr. Dekano. It is really hard finding a dentist who is good but more so one that you can trust. She is both and so much more. I was referred by a friend who was her patient before she moved out of state. I needed some dental care but was really hesitant about who to go to and I knew for sure I didn’t want to return to my previous dentist. My initial visit with Dr. Dekano was great. The exam was thurough and her explenation of treatment that was needed was very detailed. She took time to explain procedures and why they were needed, ansewing all my questions. I sensed she was knowledge as well as caring. My first treatments were cleaning and filling. All went great. I never had cleaning as thurough and good as this one. This is what a truly professional dental cleaning should be like. The filling were also a breathe.  She has a great technique for anaesthesia, truly barely felt a thing. Very soft touch. Was really happy with my treatment and trust was established. Since then I have gotten a crown placed which feels great and looks amazing.  Now we’re moving on to some cosmetic procedures starting off with whitening. I want to thanks Dr. Dekano for her help and her care, as well as her staff. She is an amazing dentist but even a more amazing person.

I have been a patient of  Dr. Lela Dekano for several years now.  I have read the other reviews and wanted to provide my insight. I understand that not everyone is always going to be happy, we all know that it is impossible to please all.  But it seems so far fetched that some of the negative reviews she and her office have received imply misappropriation of charges and border line negligent care. I further understand that not all competitors utilize ethical business practices, and this may be further reason for the negative reviews.  Unfortunately, it’s a cost of doing business in certain industry sectors. And yes, I’m aware even people put up bad reviews as leverage in an attempt to hold honest businesses by the jugular to “renegotiate” their bill; such an unscrupulous practice. But now on to my review.  Dr. Dekano has always provided me with the utmost professional care and has even accommodated my hectic schedule. She has never attempted to sell me a “deep” cleaning”, or any other form of up-sale.  She is very comprehensive and takes the time to fully explain every facet of my treatment.  Never have I felt not to have an understanding of the processes to take place, nor the billing aspect of my treatment. Dr. Dekano has done everything from basic cleaning treatments, to porcelain fillings, and replaced a crown. Never any pain, and always expeditiously completed, as I have a very hectic schedule (sometimes 70+ hrs a week). I have been to bad dentists in the past, so much so that legal procedures were filed, but I withdrew after an agreement was made between that so called dentist and myself.  I only state this to further exacerbate the fact that I do not tolerate second rate medical service and neither should anyone else. I’m not some media firm out of someone’s garage or in some place in India.  I’m a native to West LA and a true Bruin and am willing to answer any questions directly. Hope this helped clear up the waters and made your decision easier, whether you decide to utilize Dr. Dekano’s care or not. PS-My brother, his wife (whom is a Dental Asst.), my niece, and two nephews; are now patients of Dr. Dekano’s office as well.

Dr. Dekano is amazing.  My sister-in-law referred me after I had a bad experience with a rip-off dentist like the other reviewers describe.  I was very skeptical when I first visited Dr. Dekano because her office is small, but she was just like the other reviewers say: Honest, diligent, kind, and straightforward. After my family all started to see her, I got a job at USC and so moved over to the USC faculty practice – e.g. the best professors at USC were my dentists.  They commented on the good work that had been performed on me by Dr. Dekano before I came to see them. I shouldn’t have been surprised – Dr. Dekano studied at USC – but it was great to get that validation.  Now I no longer work at USC and I’m back to Dr. Dekano.  She remembers me and my family like we never left.  I can’t recommend her highly enough!

I needed to see Dr Dekano ASAP cause I chipped my tooth and was going on a trip and it was noticeable.. I called her Beverly Hills  office and she wasn’t there I panicked. lol!!!! Not only to find out she has another location in Santa Monica.I called the other location and I was able to be seen right away with no issues I’m so happy and I was able to be seen and get my new Invisalign trays delivered to this office saved my a lot of time..Thank You Dr. & Staff!!

I am glad to know Dr. Dekano and would like to share my case. I know Dr. Dekano since early 2009 when I first went to her office in Beverly Hills for a check-up. The reason for my visit was to take her opinion after being a victim of an improperly fitted bridge for my upper right premolar and canines. I had no problem with my teeth until I …met with a car accident in 1997 when my right mandible was fractured. Also, I lost my upper two incisors. My mandible was immobilized for 4 weeks (during which I survived on liquid diet) and the fracture was healed. Later, my broken incisors were root canal treated and replaced with a new bridge. During all these years, I got a couple of replacement bridges after the previous ones were worn out. Meanwhile, my sinusitis problem was complicated, probably by these treatments and ended up in a tooth abscess of one of the neighboring canine tooth. This was diagnosed when I went to India (Hyderabad, my home town) for a visit. Although, they diagnosed the tooth abscess, the dentist I saw in Hyderabad did a sloppy job while taking the measurements for my new bridge, which I needed after extracting the abscessed tooth. As a result the bridge loosened day after day and came out completely by the time I returned back to Beverly Hills . I was so fortunate that I could see Dr. Dekano who identified and fixed the problem. Till today, I had no hint of any issues with the bridge. I am very thankful to Dr.Dekano and her skillful approach to address my case. My sincere recommendation and reference to all is to go visit Dr. Dekano, my favorite dentist, if have any dental problem.

My husband referred me to interdental Dentistry after I had some botched dental work at home on the East Coast. Long story short, I now fly from New York to Los Angeles anytime I need any dental work done. I’ve needed my fair share of work, everything from routine cleanings to an implant and new crowns. Dr. Dekano and her staff do the best work around, hands down! Jessica and the staff at the front desk are always super accommodating and help my trips run smoothly. Not to mention they are some of the friendliest people you will ever meet. For all of your dental needs Interdental Beverly hills is the place to go!

Great first time experience. As always was a little hesitant to see the dentist, especially a new one. Almost canceled my appointment but new I had to get it done and couldn’t hold off much longer with the discomfort I was feeling. So glad I didn’t. Dr. Dekano is amazing. She took her time to listen to my concerns and answered my questions very thoroughly. She was very professional and detailed in her exam, presenting the treatment I needed. She explained different treatment options and why each would be beneficial in my case. This put me at ease since now I knew what was going on and felt good about my treatment needs. With the treatment itself she was very gentle and comforting throughout. Guiding me step by step and keeping me aware of what was going on. She did an amazing job and took care of the discomfort I was feeling. Couldn’t be more thankful. Still got a few things to take care of but all the uncertainty and hesitation has been put to rest. Thanks Dr. Dekano and see you soon.

I’m so glad I was able to find Dr. Dekano. My experience with other doctors have not been the best. She was able to talk to me step by step what needed to be done, and what need to be done first. After getting the work done of so many things i needed to get done i was amaze with my smile and confident to laugh in public. THAT WAS SOMETHING I WAS SHY OF DOING. Timing was great didnt have to wait and i was always taken care of by the staff. Im definitely going to tell my freinds and famliy about her great work.

Really good service!!!!!  The staff and drs were very friendly. Dr Dekano who did my cleaning did an amazing job and I felt very comfortable. Even when it was closing time and the receptionist was in a hurry to go home (but it’s understandable because it’s closing time and she has a family) , the owner/ Dr took her time to help me with finance options for Invisalign which I was grateful for. I would recommend Dr. Dekano and her staff to anyone.Also I found them via Google search by chance and it turned out to be such a blessing. Dr Dekano also took time to see My elderly mom, who is terrified of dentists, she had a tooth ache. She’s compassionate and so patient with her that I had to give her a hug before leaving. This is definitely a great practice for any one who has a fear of dentists!

Tooth aches are no fun – but when Dr. Dekano is your dentist it’s all good! I’ve been happily going to Dr. Dekano’s office for years now, and always received the best service from A-Z. Her office is located in Beverly Hills and her staff has always been warm, kind and extremely professional. From general dentistry, preventive care, cosmetic dentistry and teeth cleaning she is my angel. Her work speaks for itself and I highly recommend her to keep your teeth in tip top shape!

Been with Dr. D for about 8 months now. Can’t say enough about her and her work. My previous dentist wasn’t bad but I always felt like he was rushed and not really paying attention to detail sometimes. Not the case with Dr. D. She is very detailed in her work and systematic. Even with routine checkups and cleanings. And let me say that after I got a cleaning with Dr. D it was the first time I felt like I actually got a professional cleaning! I’ve had some fillings and a crown done over the last few months.  Her work is amazing and esthetic, most importantly pain free. She is very detailed in her work and truly cares about her patients. Referred a close friend to her and she is also very happy with her. Most definitely glad I moved to the westside and got a new dentist. Thanks Dr. D !
