PATIENT REVIEWS

First Time Patient of Dr. Jennifer Wong and felt very welcomed. The office is super clean and from the moment I walked in the door I was greeted by staff with a smile and cheerful hello and immediately helped. Upon meeting the Dr. she was cheerful and apologetic about the news she had to give me about having a root canal on my tooth.  She went over my x-ray in detail and what needed to be done.  I met with her financial person who was very helpful in going over my benefit coverage and out of pocket and the Dr. was nice enough to let me know what needed to be done right away and what could wait a little longer since I didn’t have money right then and there for the entire procedure.
I have never had a cavity or work done on my mouth that needed a drill etc. The doctor was very gentle and explained what she was doing a long the way and made sure my mouth was completely numb.Over all considering I had a Freaking root canal my experience here was incredible. I have already set up mine and my daughters cleanings for later this month.. I think after 11 years here in LA I finally found a dentist I can go back to.

Honestly the best dentist visit I’ve had in my entire life. The doctor was helpful without judgement and spent time with me afterward to review proper cleaning and care. They quickly booked my next appointment and I am actually excites to come back for my next cleaning!

So far we have loved our experience at SDC. Everyone is super kind and welcoming. The sisters, who own and operate the business, are wonderful. They have gone above and beyond to care for me. Even helping me outside of office hours when I had a dental emergency. After being with my same dentist back home from age 5-37 I was so relieved to find excellent care and so much kindness at a new dentist!

My first visit to this dentist today, and all i can say is…awesome!  All the staff were great, very friendly…and Dr. Wong was incredibly personable and professional.  And she knows her stuff.  There was another place that was freaking out about my dental situation and had written me out a list of things that would cost me $4500.  This place will NOT scam you.  Probably the best dentist I’ve ever been to.  Plus you get a free toothbrush.  The charge for me was $75 less than what I’m normally charged at the dentist I’ve been seeing for the past six years.

As most people are, I’ve always been anxious about going to the dentist. Serenity Dental is not just any dentist office though. My experience there after being afraid to go for 9 years was beyond expectations! The receptionist is sweet and the dentists Dr. Jennifer and Dr. Janet are caring doctors! During cleanings they are extremely considerate, communicate with you what you are doing right and wrong for brushing/flossing practices! They don’t put you down if you don’t have the best practices, and are very encouraging on how you can do better next time! I have three coworkers who go here via my recommendations because I couldn’t stop talking about how much I loved going here. Dr. Janet and Dr Jennifer really care about their patients and it shows. I’ll be continuing to come to Serenity for as long as I live in SoCal!

This is by far the BEST dentist I have ever gone to!!! I can’t stand the dentist and they made me feel as comfortable as possible.  I also bring my daughter here and they tread her so well, with kit gloves.  Talk to her the whole time to make her feel comfortable and never recommend anything unless it’s absolutely necessary.I would HIGHLY recommend this dentist to everyone!!! Thank you Serenity Dental for making it as painless as possible.

Great experience! Seeing Dr. Janet Wong was a pleasure. She & her staff did a lot to make me feel very comfortable. She explained in details before beginning the bridge work procedure. It was painless, beautiful, perfect fit & match, it works perfectly and the price was very reasonable compare with my previous dentist’s charge on the similar work. I like to express my sincere thanks for the outstanding dental services provided to me. Good dentists like Dr Janet Wong and Dr. Jennifer Wong are hard to find. I not only love their excellent professional services and also cherish their friendliness and smile.  I have found the best dentists !

I moved into the valley but I cant bear to break up with my dentist here. Serenity is ran by two sisters and I have had work done by both of them from an emergency root canal in the middle of the night that Dr. Jennifer Wong has showed up to, several cavities filled by Dr. Janet and Jennifer Wong, as well as my routine care. They are so wonderful, and I can’t say enough good things about them. Their staff is also amazing! I saw Rosa for the first time in 1.5 years and she still remembers my friend who came in with me and we had a chit chat about conversations years old. I keep telling myself that I’m a pragmatist and I will find a dentist closer to home, but never mind that. This is one of those healthcare places that you go to and stay for as long as you can!

I hated going to the dentist like most people, but the care at Serenity is top notch. Everyone there are very detailed oriented and take the time to specifically communicate what is happening, when it’s going to happen, how it may feel and what to do if you feel uncomfortable. They find time to squeeze you in if you have an urgent issue. I can literally go on and on.

I decided to come here on the urging of a few of my friends who have been here through word of mouth.  EVERYTHING they told me was true!  I will no longer go anywhere else!!! Of course I was a little hesitant but overall they had good reviews on yelp so I decided to not be a chicken and go. The staff is super friendly and the place is really really clean.  The person who took my xray was patient and made sure to do it painless.  For some reason I remember it hurting before. As for the prices, they are not price gougers like what a couple of the reviews said.  They made sure I understood what I need so I wouldn’t be surprised.  I have been to offices where they would do work without telling me what my co-payment was just to find out I had to shell out a thousand dollars even though I wasnt prepared to pay for it!! So embarrasing! Apparently there are two dentists here who are sisters.  I saw them both on different occasions since I came here first to get a cleaning and exam and then had to come back for a couple of fillings.  I was told by a previous dentist in the Marina that I had to have a few crowns done but when I saw both Dr. Wongs (on their different days), they agreed that some simple fillings would be more conservative and would be better for my teeth.  I haven’t had any problems since. They explained everything about my oral hygiene and i will now be a flosser!

I just visited Serenity Dental Care this Saturday for my cleaning and have been a patient of Dr. Wong for more than 2 years now. The looks of their office first caught my attention as I was driving by. I am really picky about how clean a dental or medical office has to be before I enter into it. Serenity Dental Care is so spotless that I even take my shoes off when I sit in the chair! But what really made me choose Dr. Wong as my dentist is the fact that she is a painless and very ethical doctor! Who can say that from their dentist? Not many people! Dr. Wong always spends enough time explaining what work needs to be done and gives me options on treatments available and fees associated with it. I also love their digital X-rays that displays everything right away on the computer screen. Her staff always makes me laugh when I am in the chair, and that is why I do not fear going to the dentist anymore. I usually do not schedule doctors visits in advance, but I enjoy so much going to Serenity Dental Care that I make an exception and always make my next appointment before leaving the office. Finally I recently received a Happy Birthday card from Serenity. It was the first time I received one from my dentist. Thanks you guys!!!

I found Dr. Janet Wong’s clinic through a referral from my oral surgeon.  I needed to restore a crown following my dental implant. On my appointment day, I was greeted by a friendly receptionist at their spotless and high-tech office. Dr. Janet Wong carefully examined, measured, and installed the parts on my tooth implant  to prepare them for a new crown.  She was very patient and explained each step of the crown fitting process in detail ensuring I knew exactly what she was doing. She did an incredible job.  It was a perfect fit! I can now bite and chew as they were my own teeth! Thank you Dr. Wong!  I will be going to you for all my future dental needs.

So up until I found Serenity Dental, i’ve bounced around many dentists in the SGV area where I grew up and the Westside where I lived after college. Some of the dentists I liked enough, but there was always one thing or another that I didn’t like so I never stuck with them. However all of that changed after I found Serenity Dental. There is literally not one thing I do not like about this place. Let’s face it, having to keep your mouth open while someone pokes at your teeth is not a pleasant experience in general, but Serenity Dental is consistently by far the best dental experience I’ve ever had. Here’s why: 1. Parking/location. They’re located on Washington Blvd right off the freeway making them super easy to get to. Even though Washington is a big street, the office is right next to a residential cul-de-sac which always has tons of hassle free parking. This is just a minor thing, but having easy parking makes for a better overall experience. 2. Front Desk. One thing I’ve come to appreciate from medical offices in general is the people at the front desk. I’ve had a few experiences with good doctors but front desks who were unpleasant and difficult to work with regarding scheduling, insurance, etc. This isn’t the main factor obviously but having a good front desk goes a long way and Serenity Dental front desk people are great. 3. Dental skill. This is by far the most important thing to me in a dentist and the dentists at Serenity are top notch. The office is run by two dentists, Jennifer and Janet who are sisters. They both truly care for their patients and are passionate about what they do and it really shows. Depending on scheduling you can end up with either one of them but they’re both awesome. I always get confused who’s who because they’re wearing masks most of the time so even though I can tell their voice apart I forget which one is Jennifer and which one is Janet. For basic cleanings, I’ve had other dentists where I’m tearing up because they’re too rough and it’ll hurt for hours afterward, but Janet and Jennifer are thorough but also gentle and careful. Oh yea, Janet and Jennifer do the cleaning themselves, you won’t have some assistant doing the cleaning then the dentist just giving you a rushed inspection afterward. I’ve also had a few procedures done here (emergency root canal, cap over a chip, fillings), and the skill, efficiency, and precision is top notch. I’ve had bad experiences with such work at other places and I fully trust that Serenity will always do a good job. 4. Welcoming environment. Everyone from the front desk to the techs who do the x-rays and such is very friendly and welcoming. J and J really take their time with each patient and are incredibly personable. This makes each visit much more enjoyable because they actually take the time to talk to you and get to know you. 5. Facilities. They have the most high tech tools of any place I’ve been to. The metal pick they use for cleaning shoots water, and there’s a large screen right next to the chair that’s connected to this special camera that they can take Hi-res photos of the inside of your mouth so you can see exactly what they’re describing. The whole office is very clean and inviting and well maintained. I’ve since moved out of the Westside because I was transferred to a different location for work, but I love and trust Serenity so much that I still make the trek out to the Westside rather than find a new dentist. If you live in LA you know how big of a deal this is and shows how much I value their care.

#200!! This office is excellent. Big shout out to Yelper Reese M for her recommendation. I go to Dr Jennifer Wong. She’s excellent. Patient, personable, and effective — perfect qualities. I really like how she takes a conservative approach and watches sweet spots before just randomly drilling. She instills my confidence in her. Dr Janet Wong, her sister, is very friendly and I hear excellent, as well. My mom was pleased with the teeth cleaning she received. Look, they are nice and patient dentists: What more can you ask for?  I love how they are open two Saturdays a month. This works out perfectly for someone with a M-F work week. They accept Dental PPO insurance–winning.  Park on a side street and walk over. Easy. Final Word: Highly recommended Serenity Dental.

My two sons recently had their first dental visit here. The office is thankfully open on Saturdays so it’s perfect! They had a great visit and felt very comfortable with the doctors and staff. So happy to have found this office!

For my first cleaning and recent cavity filling at Serenity, I have to say these have been the best dental experiences I’ve ever had. I have quite a bit of anxiety about visiting the dentist, and both Dr. Wongs are incredibly friendly and personable, and made sure I knew exactly what they were doing and what to expect. They were so kind and understanding of my anxieties and I truly am grateful to have found them!

1st off I am a total cynic.  I went to kinkos the other day to get some copies bound.  Of course, I get horrendous service!  I go to Subway and get a sandwich, everything is put together so sloppy! Is it just me, or do people in this world just not care about what they are doing and just trying to get by?? Serenity dental and Dr. Janet Wong are huge exceptions to the rule.  They truly care about each and every patient.  This is a total rarity nowadays. They spent 1 full hour just cleaning my teeth and advising me on brushing techniques etc.  Their facility is modern and is very clean(I can’t stand a dirty dental office!) Unfortunately, I needed several fillings….but it was totally painless( I haven’t been numbed up for more than 15 years for anything).  The white fillings that Dr. Janet Wong placed blended in perfectly with my teeth….you couldn’t notice them at all!! Overall, if I could give them 10 stars……I would. If you are looking for a great dentist in Culver City area try Dr. Janet Wong.

Dr. Wong saved me last week. After ignoring a cracked tooth for months, it started flaring up on Saturday, and I felt like my jaw was being stabbed with a knife. Incredibly painful. I left work early to run to her, she was recommended by a coworker. Her clinic was actually closed that day because they were dealing with a water line break or something, and she just happened to be there to monitor the work being done. She saw me standing there outside holding my face and almost in tears, and let me in. She took x-rays, gave me some shots to ease my pain, gave me antibiotics and pain prescriptions for the next few days, and told me who to call on Monday for an immediate root canal that I needed. I was a mess having a bit of a breakdown, and ON HER DAY OFF Dr. Wong helped me and told me how to fix the problem. I walked out of there SMILING (which I never do, I’m usually petrified of dentists) and calm knowing I had a plan in place. I can’t thank her enough, she went above and beyond. Going back to her for my regular care. She has a client for life.

This is the best DDS office EVER!  A dear family friend gave me this referral after I went to a different DDS.  I was ONLY going there for a 2nd opinion…. Well…. not only did they end up starting the procedure that I needed (Ugh root canal) they quoted me $700 LESS than the previous office down the street.  I make appointments for both of my kids to start going here as well!  THANK YOU SO MUCH!

As a patient who hates dentists, this place was AMAZING! I called in advance because I had a severe toothache and come to find out it was my wisdom tooth out putting pressure on my gums which then were swollen as well. In any case, I called and they were able to see me immediately. I was told if the tooth was impacted, they would have to refer me. All in all, it wasn’t impacted and after the X-ray Dr Wong took it out! The cost for all of it was $250.00. They don’t even try to give you ridiculous prices! Everyone at this office is so incredibly nice and put me to ease. I’ve already made my next appointment! Thank you Serenity Dental Care!! =)

We are a family of five, son 12, daughter 19, and son 24. My sons are autistic. We love the office, the entire staff is amazing. My husband, daughter and the boys love going, we have conversations about it afterward. Beautiful modern office and convenient location, late and Saturday hours.

I absolutely love these ladies! I have been to quite a few dentist through my years and have always had strong anxiety while in the chair, so much that I need to hold rag or cloth in my hand cause of much they would perspire while work was being done.  I found these girls as a recommendation from a friend and even though they are not in my area, it has been well worth the travel anytime I need to go! All staff is extremely friendly and the docs are great! Very considerate towards you while they do their thing, and professional all the way through!  If you need a good, no great dentist, then just come here!

Dr Janet has the gentlest hand and she put me at ease with her gentle, kind demeanor. Admittedly, I am a dental chicken and waited to see a dentist until I felt embarrassed at the state of my teeth. This is the first time I can say that I actually had an experience at the dental office I can call ” pleasant”. There was no wait. The receptionist is a sweet young woman. The assistant is efficient and warm. Dr Janet cleaned my teeth and put in a filling. While she was cleaning my teeth, I remember thinking- wow, she has a gentle, precise hand that didn’t make my gums bleed. I am so glad I have found this office. I recommend Serenity Dental Care.

This dental office is awesome…when I first called to make an appointment, the receptionist was very friendly and hours are very flexable. The receptionist was very professional which I liked very much. On my appointment day Dr. Jennifer Wong was super nice. She made me feel very confortable while she was working on my teeth. I know I will keep her as my dentist forever 🙂

I am a dental chicken.  On more than one occasion, I have accidentally kicked a dentist when he hit a sensitive spot. So when I came to Serenity for an emergency root canal, I was a mess. I didn’t read any reviews.  My infected tooth and mind-boggling pain made the decision. They were the dentist office that was open at 8am on a Saturday.  That was all I knew. I would’ve gone there even if it was a back alley dentist chair behind a dumpster.  I didn’t care anymore But, I was incredibly impressed by my whole Serenity experience.  The office was clean, bright and modern.  The staff found a way to squeeze me in without an appointment.  And best of all, Dr Wong calmed me tremendously.  She could see I was nervous and promised repeatedly that she would not hurt me.  She loaded me with enough novocaine to numb a wildebeast and was done with the procedure so quickly that I thought she was kidding when she said we were finished.  It was out of my dental network, so I paid without insurance help.  The root canal is $800 and the crown is about the same.  I’ve looked around and that’s fairly standard (if not on the cheaper side). For me, dental work always seems to be an expensive and scary experience.  I am excited to finally find an office I like and a staff I trust.

I was looking for a new dentist and happened to see their office while I was jogging.  I gave them a try and was very pleased with the total experience. The staff is friendly, the office is clean, organized, bright and modern, and the Dr. Wong who worked on me (there are 2 sisters) took the time to explain things and was very low-key, which I liked. They use a modern x-ray machine that allows you to see your teeth immediately on a computer screen which is very cool. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Dr. Wong is my savior! Afraid of the dentist? I know I am! I’ve hated the dentist (going to, not the actual person) since I was a kid. I hated the waiting and I hated the pain or even the thought of it. Nothing stressed me like going to the dentist. Despite taking care of my teeth, my DNA has an affinity for having at least one cavity per visit, braces, wisdom teeth removed, permanent teeth removed (believe it or not, my mouth was too small for all of my adult teeth) and 4-6 crowns (I’ve forgotten the actual number). Dr. Wong, yes, is my savior. I still hate going; it’s a Pavlovian reaction. BUT, when I go, I’m seen ON TIME and IMMEDIATELY; no sitting in the chair stressing. I’ve had several fillings-ALL without a shot and NO PAIN. She does no unnecessary work and she’s GOOD. I leave feeling like I’ve been taken care of the way I should. And, best of all, her prices are VERY REASONABLE. I’m no shill: just came from the office after having cracked a crown and requiring two fillings. And I feel GREAT! Don’t put off going to the dentist; go to MY dentist!

This place is amazing. I had so much pain in my tooth for 7 months and thought it would trigger during their procedure to fix it, and I did not feel a thing. Absolute miracle workers, and extremely nice people! Been to a different dental place for nearly my 27 year life time, and found this place a month ago, and I have to say, I’ve found my new dental spot.

I was looking for a dentist after getting a tooth ache, and decided to make an appointment at Serenity Dental Care based on the great Yelp reviews. I must say that I was not disappointed. When I made my appointment they took my insurance information and checked for my coverage with my current dental insurance. The receptionist greeted me and it did not take long before I was sitting in the dentist chair. Their dental assistant immediately took an X-ray of my mouth. I was really impressed by the digital X-ray that they are using as this was a first for me. It was nice seeing my teeth right away with out having to wait for the doctor to develop them. Dr. Wong took a look at those X-ray and diagnosed a cavity. I know, I should have flossed! She massaged my gums while injecting the anesthesia, it was the first time I had a painless shot. She then took care of the care of this cavity, and noticed that there was another very small one on an adjacent tooth.
Believe it or not, Dr. Wong told me that since the cavity was small and if I was willing to floss and brush after every meal and use a fluoride rinse my small cavity could arrest.
She told me that when it comes to treatment she is very conservative and rather keep the tooth structure rather than drill a unnecessary hole.I am extremely pleased to have found a great and painless dentist. I will definitely remain a patient of Dr. Wong

After years of horrible experiences with dentist in the Marina Del Rey area, I found the best Dentist ever. Run by two sisters who provide quality care and also promotes preventive care for your teeth. The office is neat and clean and all the workers are so friendly. They don’t rush you, they take their time and are by far the most honest Dentist out there. I highly recommend Serenity Dental who only takes PPOs. My experience with HMO have been horrible and now I have PPO and I am never going back to HMO.

Let me start off by saying that I HATED going to the dentist … As a kid , I dreaded it! My dentist was not very nice and I really blame her for not getting braces as a child.
Anywho… these ladies here are GREAT!! They make me feel so comfortable … I felt like they truly cared about my well being, my comfortability and of course my TEETH!!
I actually was excited to come to the dentist … No judgements here just honesty & great care!! They don’t accept hmo but I didn’t care because of how great all my experiences here were… Anyway… thank you ladies!!! I really , really appreciate you & I’ll see you soon!

Dr. Jennifer Wong was sweet and informative! I was referred here from a friend and so glad it’s close to work + home.  I was (over)due for a cleaning… Haven’t had one all year and it’s already August (gross, I know!) So I found my way over here during my lunch break, haha.  I made an appointment about two-three weeks ago, but glad it all worked out. Luckily, I had no cavities!  I will be seeing them again in December 🙂 P.S. there are multiple flavors for the polish cleaning portion of my visit, but I went with good ol’ fashioned mint!

Visited today for the first time for my semi-annual cleaning. If I could give Serenity Dental Care 5+ stars I definitely would. I absolutely detest going to the dentist, but coming here was truly a great experience. Not only are all of the staff extremely friendly, but the care provided is incredible. Would recommend to anyone living in West LA who needs a great dentist!

OMG!! These dentists are the GOAT!!!! Serenity is the perfect name for them. Personally, I don’t have any issues about going to the dentist, but for those of you who do, this is the pl6for you!! From the very first moment you walk in you can feel a spirit of peacefulness. You’re greeted by Edith, who is so patient and sweet. The doctors Wong, who are sisters, are fantastic!! They know what they’re doing and will immediately put you at ease! Through the years I’ve had some good dentists and some not so good dentists, but this is the first time I’ve ever had GREAT dentists…and did I mention the entire office is run by women!!! Yes!!! So if you’re looking for a GREAT dentist look no further than Serenity Dental! #GirlPower

I can’t speak highly enough about the wonderful doctors at Serenity! These lovely ladies have helped me so much since I first showed up on their doorstep. I’ve struggled finding a dentist that I feel has my best interest at the forefront of their care, but Dr. Jennifer, Dr. Janet and Dr. Papas have been incredible from the start. And the staff and technicians are just as lovely as the doctors! They have taken a (much-appreciated) conservative approach towards my care when I’ve had other dentists recommend extreme measures that have not necessarily been in my best interest. They are incredibly considerate, as well as forth-coming and explanatory, and always happy to answer any and all questions I may have. They always let me know what all of my options are in any given scenario, and give me their honest opinion on what they feel would be the best action to take. They’ve squeezed me in numerous times on short notice; it’s comforting knowing that I can rely on them in case an urgent situation comes up. Also, these dentists are very gentle and sweet – I’d highly recommend them to any adult or child!
