Dr. Gamble and her staff are absolutely amazing! My kids have been seeing her for over two years and we couldn’t be happier. They LOVE going to her office and could not wait to get there yesterday. It is well decorated to create a bright, cheery and spotless environment. Everyone treats you professionally and with warmth and care. Ample time is spent with each patient, it is not a “turn and burn” place like we experienced with another dentist. She really takes the the time to get to know your child and builds trust with them. The kids leave with a fun prize and a goody bag full of the coolest toothbrushes, floss and toothpaste or mouth rinse. She has the latest technology from the Solea Laser to digital radiography. I wish Dr. Gamble was my dentist!

So very thankful we have Dr. Gamble and her team as my children’s dentist office! I wish she took adults too lol! But seriously, her staff is super nice and all children friendly and Dr. Gamble herself is so AMAZING! She knows how to communicate with children effectively all while keeping parents at ease. My 2 children, started going about 2 years ago and recently my 5- year old needed to have 3 teeth extracted due to his baby teeth overcrowding- yikes! I was super nervous but Dr. Gamble knew exactly how to handle it and minimize pain– to my surprise he had NO PAIN at all and he enjoyed watching LEGO movie 2 while they went to work. My children love the toys they offer and always ask me to go to the dentist because they have such a fun experience there- like a playland– I mean really, they even offer helium balloons!!! The office interior design is something off of HGTV and my kids and I love the pineapple theme. Really, def give Dr. Gamble a visit, you will be impressed every visit and your children will LOVE going to the dentist.

Best pediatric dentist! I can’t express the amount of gratitude I have for having Dr Pinnick Gamble as our kids dentist. Going to the dentist was always so stressful to them….then a friend of ours recommended we see Dr Gamble. It changed our lives! Now our kids are excited to get check ups, and we no longer have to go through crying and begging not to go. The last time Dr Gamble filled my son’s cavity, he said “mommy, it was easy!” I have told several friends, and they were thrilled for the great referral. Thanks so much for how wonderfully you care for our kids teeth!

Do yourself a favor and take your children to Dr Gamble! My 3 year old daughter just had her first appt. Upon entering the office i was nervous, seeing as i wrestle to brush my daughters teeth morning and night! However, all of the staff members here immediately made the experience fabulous. The office is bright and has a very happy energy. Dr Gamble and her assistant were so caring, whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism. They spoke directly to my daughter and knew all the tricks to keep her calm & comfortable. I was so impressed during the entire appt. They really made it an enjoyable dental experience for my daughter and I!

Dr Gamble has gone above and beyond for my daughters dental emergency.  She fell and chipped her front tooth and since we are new to the area I called a few places to find out what to do.  Dr Gamble was the first to get back to us (at 7am!) and has since followed up to make sure she was okay.  She is so kind and caring.  Her office is extraordinary – filled with toys and fun things for the little ones to do.  My daughter can’t wait to go back and really enjoyed her visit.  I highly recommend this place.

Dr. Andrea Pinnick Gamble is an AMAZING dentist! Impressed with her overall professionalism and the entire experience for my two daughters was wonderful. The staff is friendly, the office is clean, colorful and a fun place for children. Being the son of a dentist, I know how scary dr’s visits can be for children. This is why I am so thankful for Dr Andrea Gamble. I highly recommend Dr Gamble to any family who is looking for a pediatric dentist that is highly skilled, but also has a warm and nurturing presence. Thank you Dr Gamble for everything you do for our children and community.

I don’t have enough nice things to say about this office! Just fantastic! Both of my kids love coming here. One is 7 and the other is 2 years old. The front staff are super friendly and really go out of the way to make my kids feel welcome. They have very flexible hours even open at 7am before school if necessary. Dr Gamble is just the sweetest and really makes the experience positive for the kids. They get to choose a gift from the treasure chest and a balloon at the end which is a highlight. How often can you say your kids actually want to go to the dentist? Highly recommend Local Smile!

★★★★★

Dr. Gamble and her entire team are magical and amazing! My daughter actually had fun during her visit and left with a big smile, stickers and balloon. I’m sure there will be no hesitation to visit Dr. Gamble in the future. Dr. Gamble made the exam and cleaning fun and entertaining, while also informative. Another mom in one of my toddler activity classes scolded me for some of my daughters binkie and bottle habits. Which made me feel worried and upset. Dr. Gamble evaluated her and let me know that all is more than fine and that all habits eventually are outgrown by the child. Even if there were some narrowing to her palette, it would most likely be something addressed with braces later on in life and not to worry. Dr. Gamble was so comforting and non judgemental and friendly all at the same time, that’s why I cannot explain her other than Magical. She is our Magical tooth fairy in Redondo beach! Your children will have the best experience if you choose Dr. Gamble for them!

Dr. Gamble is the sweetest and kindest dentist. Dr. Gamble and her assistant were very gentle and amazing with both my son and daughter. Very professional and knowledgeable. They both needed extractions she was patient made them feel comfortable by being funny and coaching them through it. Hand down the best Pediatric Dentist in the South Bay. Her staff are equally as nice and helpful. Rocio is always so nice and Diane always greet us. Natalie so kindly made my kids balloons. Great place

★★★★★

Dr. Gamble is amazing. My 3 year old daughter fell and hit her teeth. Dr. Gamble and staff took great care of her. They were so gentle.  I was able to sit with my daughter throughout the appointment. The office is very modern, with a cozy feel. They specialize in laser treatments, which are great for kids to have fillings done without the numbing (most of the time). I hope my dentist will get this machine soon. I’m very glad to have found Dr. Gamble and highly recommend her to all parents.

My daughter would kept asks me to bring her back to the dentist because she want to try other toothpaste Flavors. She had tried her favorite flavor of chocolate and would like to come back and try bubble gum, orange, watermelon, walterberry…and more that I don’t remember hahahha…even I want to be a patient myselfLove the environment, outstanding decoration…high recommend

We’ve been going to this office for about 4 years with Dr. Nina Le. Today was our first visit with the new dentist, Dr. Andrea Gamble. We loved her! She was wonderful with our kids and they were super comfortable with her. She even gave them cool shades to help with the light on their face during cleaning. They especially LOVED her prize selection after the cleaning.  It was also great to see the same great staff we have come to love. We highly recommend this pediatric dental office!

What an awesome place to bring my kids to have their teeth cleaned and we’ve had one cavity filled there with a laser treatment- no drilling necessary! The office is so happy, bright, smells nice, videos and toys in every room to keep the kids happy. Parents are welcome to be in the room with the kids if they would like, and Dr. Gamble is one of the kindest, friendliest dentists I’ve ever met. I can’t believe how long she takes to speak with me and explain things to me with the biggest smile the whole time. What a wonderful dentist and human being. 🙂

I brought my daughter in for her first dental exam today, and everything was just perfect. From calling and scheduling and confirming insurance to going through with the exam. My daughter was nervous and there were a lot of tears, but everyone was so patient and kind with her that by the end of her appointment she didn’t want to leave. Thank you,  Dr. Gamble and your entire team!

Wow!!! Totally blown away by how amazing this dental office was! I highly recommend this office! Sure parking was a little rough, and it’s in a very busy area.. however I will happily drive out of my way again and again!!!! My boys both had smiles on their faces the entire time! This place totally lives up to its name! Well done!!! We will be back for many years!!!

My daughter had an amazing first visit to the Dentist. Dr. Gamble knows children and has excellent communication skills to interact. Very gentle and empathetic to toddler’s anxiety. We are so happy to have such a loving dentist. The entire staff was very attentive and caring from the first moment we walked in to our final hug goodbye.

So happy we found Dr. Gamble after searching for years. Kind, warm, knowledgeable – you get the best of conventional and holistic dentistry. She’s up to date on the newest, least invasive procedures. She saved our 4 year old from having her teeth drilled into by applying silver diamine fluoride, a new procedure that stops cavities in baby teeth.

★★★★★

Wonderful experience! We moved from Texas and needed a new dentist. Dr. Gamble was recommended by our new orthodontist and I almost didn’t take the reco because our insurance wasn’t listed as a provider they accept. We have a PPO and decided to go ahead anyway. My daughter said upon arrival “this looks like a friendly place” and when we left she said “can we come back here next time?”. Enough said – we’ve found our new dentist!

Nichele T. from Hermosa Beach, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My 5 and 6 year olds just had their first appointment with Dr. Andrea Gamble today. Oh. My. God. She AND ALL OF HER STAFF are amazing. My kids don’t have dental anxiety (thank god) but I do, even for my kids, but she is INCREDIBLE and I feel so at ease knowing she is their dentist. I wish she could be MY dentist too! Haha. I love that she uses a laser for fillings, instead of the traditional method. The office is immaculately kept. The receptionists are literally a pleasure to deal with. Her Covid protocol makes me feel SO SAFE. I could honestly go on and on… this experience was amazing.

Dr. Gamble and her staff are amazing! Kids usually hate the dentist but they LOVE going to their check ups! Dr. Gamble is very warm and friendly, patient and just wonderful with my kids. We are always in and out without delay. All procedures, when needed, are explained to us very thoroughly so there’s never any surprises. We always get a reminder in the mail for our check ups and her office even sends the kids little fun holiday activities every year. HIGHLY recommend Smile Co. for your little ones! Ps. the kids say she has the best take home chackskies too!

Jenn B. from Torrance, CA (Source: Yelp)

Never thought I’d hear my 13 year old daughter walk out of a dentist’s office saying “that was SO fun! I can’t wait to go back!”…..but that’s exactly what happened after our first visit to Dr. Gamble’s office!   The office itself is immaculate and inviting. The staff is super friendly, warm and professional.  Dr. Gamble has such a wonderful, calm manner, she instantly made my daughter feel completely safe and comfortable.   It was such an awesome experience!  I highly recommend Local Smile Co.

I am truly speechless! I have grown up in the dental industry as my father is a dentist. Dr Gamble is THEE Best! My 3 1/2 yr old son’s front two teeth were turning grey and were abscessed and I knew that meant they needed to be removed. She recommended we pull the teeth to preserve his adult teeth. From the moment we walked in the staff were so kind, gentle and calm. Dr Gamble was sweet, calming, gentle and everything I would want in a doctor that is caring for my child. They had a stuffed animal for him to hold during the procedure, stories were told to him while the procedure was done to distract him and NO crying. I am SO grateful for Dr Gamble and her team for taking the best care of my boy.

I took my 2 year old daughter here for her first dentist appointment. The staff was so friendly and attentive. The hygienist who examined my daughter first was so patient and experienced. She put my daughter at ease by talking to her a lot. She told me what to expect with the exam and answered all of my questions patiently.  Dr. Gamble was also so friendly! Everyone in the office is so great with kids. My daughter left with so many prizes/goodies from just a dental cleaning. She was so excited to go back in the future!

Patient, fun, & kind! Dr. Gamble’s office is so interactive and perfect for the little ones. The staff is very patient with the kids, which is my number one priority. They have everything imaginable to make you + your little one feel comfortable, and happy while your there. My kids love going to the dentist which is awesome for me! The billing, payment, procedure is all up front as well. They are very clear before you go in as to what they’ll be doing and how much the insurance covers and how much you are responsible to pay. All in all the perfect ped. dentistry because they sincerely do care about your little ones as much as you do!  Thank you guys! 🙂 I wish they took adults!

Doctor Gamble and her team are AMAZING!!! We came to doctor Gamble for a second opinion. My 5 year old son had his first dental X-rays at another providers office. They found out he has 9 cavities. I was told by the provider that he need to be sedated and intubated in the OR to have his teeth fixed. And they handed me the consent forms to fill out. I felt like they were super aggressive and pushy. Of course I did not feel comfortable with this approach, so I left the office with tears in my eyes, anxiety and mommy guilt. At this point I decided to seek a second opinion and went onto the South Bay mommy group on Facebook and found raving reviews on Doctor Gamble from fellow mommy’s. We met with doctor Gamble the first day and she was so sweet and welcoming. She made my son and I feel at ease, and provided us with a less aggressive treatment plan. Instead of intubating and sedating my son she offered to use the nitrous oxide and fix the two biggest cavities with her laser on his first visit. We agreed with her plan and came into a couple of weeks later to get them fixed. They were amazing with him!!! Doctor Gamble and her assistant worked their magic while my son watched a movie and held still during the entire procedure. My husband and I watched in amazement. We are so happy we found her and her team. They are amazing!!! We highly recommended Doctor Gamble and her team and will be coming back to have our son’s other cavities fixed.

Love Love Love Dr Gamble, her staff and this office!  And more importantly so does my 7 year old son!  I used to take him to dr Holden’s office in Manhattan beach which is nice but definitely has the feel and operation of a large factory.  I found Dr Gamble when we needed a 2nd opinion for a tooth that Dr Holden wanted to pull and we were not yet convinced it needed to go and wanted to hear some other options  so we came to see Dr Gamble.  What a difference!  This office is all about personal care and interaction and great service.   First of all her staff at the front desk is great… Dianne at the front is super knowledgeable and helpful.  The office is very cute and clean and kid oriented.  They have TVs with options of Netflix movies for the kids to choose from the of course have the awesome toys and balloons for the end of the appointment and super cute pineapple yellow decor.  The office is super high tech and modern technology wise –  I wish I could come here and be a patient myself but I think I’m a bit out of the age group they cater to.  Oh well at least my son can take advantage.   Dr Gamble is super knowledgeable, kind and smiley.  She explains everything in detail even after I asked the same question 5 different ways.  She is very skilled, gentle and patient as well anytime she has to work on my sons teeth.   All in all this office and Dr Gamble are amazing.  I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic pediatric dentist in the South Bay!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Gamble. My 4-year-old needed extensive work and we went to several dentists before deciding on Dr. Gamble. The first dentist was nice but her office felt like a factory: cold, all business. In fact, they wanted me to pay for future procedures up front! We moved on. The second dentist was fine…no complaints…but my daughter didn’t feel comfortable there. We stumbled upon Dr. Gamble’s office by doing a Yelp search and I couldn’t be happier. (I guess third time really is the charm). Dr. Gamble is fair, patient, funny, fun, caring, compassionate. She is EXCELLENT with children and empathic with adults. She won my daughter over on the first visit (no easy feat). In fact, we thought for sure we would need to do deep sedation for my anxious kiddo in order to do the dental work but Dr. Gamble had my daughter laughing and sitting still with just a light sedative and nitrous. I am forever grateful for Dr. Gamble and highly recommend her office.

Dr. Gamble is an incredibly patient, intelligent, and kind person who clearly loves what she does. Dr. Gamble completed my 10 month old’s lip and tongue tie revision and made a very stressful situation significantly more bearable. From the initial consult, to the procedure and post-op care, we always felt well cared for. The office is very clean and welcoming and the staff is wonderful. We are so happy we found Local Smile Co!

My kids love Dr Gamble, and I’m thrilled that she’s my children’s dentist!!  Prior to Dr Gamble, my kids would scream and cry when going to the dentist…so my friend recommended Dr Gamble, and it was the best thing we did! She makes my kids feel so calm, and they actually don’t mind going!  She has such an amazing bedside manner, that even my son who can’t sit still and is scared of dentists…does extremely well! She has made our lives easier! This is why I have recommended her to several friends who thank me that I did!  Another plus is the nice clean office, TV’s, and all around great energy!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I was expecting the worst because my son can be a difficult patient, but everyone in the office was amazing.  I was really 10 times better then I could have imagined.  Bravo to everyone in this office.

Andrea and her staff are amazing! They are always so friendly and good with kids. The waiting room activities and toy chest always put smiles on the kids’ faces. You will never met another pediatric dentist that genuinely cares about your child’s health and experience as much as you do. If you bring your kids here you will definitely not be disappointed!

Exceptional care. I was blown away by the staff and Dr Andrea’s kindness and professionalism. The front desk staff and hygienists were wonderful with my kiddos and Dr Andrea was very thorough and knowledgeable in her discussion with me about their dental health. The office is modern and adorable too. We look forward to our future visits and will be happy to refer her to our other military and civilian friends in the community. Thank you, Local Smile for such great care!
