I’m going to be honest and start with…I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THE DENTIST IN ALMOST 10 YEARS BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED OF THEM ALL but dental pain (of course) forced me to seek one out and I couldn’t have been more blessed to be referred to Dr.Engel and his staff! Maria’s customer service was AMAZING and she handled all of my insurance questions/intake info even down to making sure that I take the correct antibiotic before seeing the doc in such a professional manner with a personalized touch, I couldn’t help but to be at ease prior to getting in that chair (determining the out of pocket expense is stressful in itself). Dr.Engel and Ebonee were just as pleasant as could be and full of information that they were eager to share. I received a full comprehensive exam (approx 2 hours) and spoke with the doc for about 30 minutes about my concerns and he shared his along with a treatment plan and I never felt rushed or as if he was feeding me information to “drum up business”. I really appreciated the 1 on 1 time; WHEN DOES THAT EVER HAPPEN?! He should be elated to know that I changed my toothpaste, brushing twice a day and purchased the toothbrush he recommended and my results are pretty great, THANKS DR. ENGEL!  Then a few weeks later Dianne, one of their dental hygienist was charged the task of cleaning the teeth of a 37 year old baby and she was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! Not only did she take the time to explain everything she was going to do, she used visual aids (my xrays and pamphlets) SHE WAS VERY GENTLE, checking on me through out the cleaning. I couldn’t have been more relieved during the visit (which NEVER happens to me) and pleased with the results. I have a lot of work to be done, so I will most definitely will return to them in a few weeks and not just because they sent a cute “thank you” card, lol. I won’t say that I’m excited to see them all again, but I can certainly say that my anxiety level over dentist visits is lower than it’s ever been and I wouldn’t dream of finding another office, I’ve found a home! I even appreciated the referral he gave to have a root canal done, and I found it very sweet that one of the ladies manning the front office (she was also helpful during my first visit, assisting me with completing paperwork) saw enough fear in my eyes to share that she has had worked done by this doc and how awesome he was, that meant a lot and was quite reassuring!
Thanks guys, see you soon!

This was the most gentle experience I have ever had. I broke a crown and was in quite a bit of pain. The doctor fixed me up right away and I never felt any pain while sitting in the chair. Normally I get anxious sitting in the dentist chair, but he made me comfortable and reassured me everything was going to be fine. The staff is terrific. Parking is easy. I found my new dentist and I love it

I have been going to see Dr. Engel for the last 9 years. I am now 41 years old and so over the years I have had many different dentists. But  there are obvious reasons that I have stuck with Dr. Engel since I first came to his office so many years ago. He and his staff’s level of expertise and professionalism is matched by none. They are always friendly, courteous and eager to help and make you feel comfortable. Dr. Engel has also grown and evolved over the years, always a step ahead of new trends and at the cutting edge of Dental treatments and technology. Even if you are not currently looking for a new dentist, I highly encourage you to at least make a one time visit to his practice to see what else is available to you out there.

★★★★★

Dr. Engel is the best i recently had alot work done on my teeth and I’ve never had a better experience Dr. Engel and the staff at socal dental are caring hard working professionals who truly want to get it right who not only fix the problems but also want to help prevent them by giving advice on how to keep your teeth healthy and great looking i could sit and write and write endlessly about all the great things there but to truly experience it you have to go there yourself. Thanks for everything

Once again, Dr. Engel lived up to and exceeded his high standard of dental care, at a personal cost to him. My bridge came loose last night. I used the easy-to-use website link to email the office to find out when I might come in for an emergency visit, as the office is currently closed during COVID 19 except for emergencies. I received a message back from Dr. Engel almost immediately saying i could come in this morning at 9:30 AM. I came, although I was late because I forgot to bring the bridge – and he and two members of his staff were waiting there to meet me. He quickly re-glued the bridge, adjusted the bite, and I was on my way. Dr. Engel and his staff are unfailingly courteous, kind, understanding, and professional. Dr. Engel has been my dentist for about eight years, and I have no intention of changing that, even though I have recently moved farther away than when I first began to receive dental care from him and his team. This is just how they take care of their patients, even those of us who can be forgetful.

Wow! Now I see why this dentist has perfect scores on Yelp. Everyone was so friendly and professional, from Dr. Engel, to Maria, Wendy And Roland. This is our first visit, but we were so impressed. Dr. Engel is the most thorough dentist I have been to! I highly recommend this dental office

Diane L. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr Engel, Dr. Goldman and their staff are amazing.Previous to this office, I had a horrible and frightening experience at another dental office, while in the process of doing a root canal and needed a new dentist immediately.I found Dr. Engel on Yelp and I was able to schedule a same day visit. During my examination he said, “Diane I see we have to complete this root canal for you which, we will do but I want to understand… what do you want to accomplish with your teeth?”This was the most comforting question he could have asked me that day! Dr. Engel made me feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared about my oral health. We set goals, expectations and a timeline that worked for mI’ve now been a patient for a year and so far I have done my root canal with Dr. Engel, pulled 2 of my wisdom teeth with Dr. Goldman; completely PAINLESS, 4 teeth cleaning: 2 with Wendy and 2 with Diane, fillings with Dr. Engel and now I am proceeding with Invisalign with Dr. Goldman.I love that I can do everything in 1 office!I am always received with a warm welcome by Sandy and Maria. Their dental assistants Roland and Ruth are always pleasant and attentive. I refer friends, clients and family to this office all the time as they truly make you feel part of their dental family.

Dr. Engel is the best dentist I’ve ever had! He is extremely thorough and has continued to give me the proper dental care I need. The entire staff is extremely friendly and kind. And plus, there is never a long wait time either. Hands down, this is the best dentist in L.A. Thank you to the entire staff and thank you, Dr. Engel!

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Engel. From calming my fiancé down who is very nervous about the dentist, to also looking at my teeth and explaining everything very thoroughly. I never want to go to another dentist in my life. He helped my fiancé get into a great oral surgeon for an emergency surgery literally the last day before a holiday weekend. I can’t thank him enough. He was thoughtful, kind, literally wish all medical doctors were like this. He is a gem and I highly, highly recommend his care. His whole office is also the nicest office I have ever met, thank you guy SO Much!!!!

★★★★★

Dr. Engel and his yelp.com/biz/southern-ca… staff are wonderful, kind and friendly. They acknowledge me when I walk in the door and make every effort to make me feel comfortable and welcomed. Dr. Engel is a master at dentistry and always improves my smile! I have been a patient for almost 30 years which speaks to his professionalism and expertise. I cannot say enough positive things about his office and the fact that Dr. Engel is a huge animal lover is a bonus for me! Thank you to everyone in the office! Dorothy L.

Ben I. from Irwindale, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

This is hands down the best dental office I have ever been to! And this is coming from someone who is/was terrified of dentists. I have been coming to see Dr. Engel and his team for over 3 years and am always impressed with their knowledge, ability, and dedication to educating their patients. They are true experts and have made dental visits a breeze (never thought I would say that). This review is long overdue and I want to take this opportunity to extend a huge thank you to Dr. Engle and his team for all the great dental care they have provided me over the years! I have never felt better about my teeth! They also have an excellent periodontist who deserves her own mention – Dr. Goldman. I have seen Dr. Goldman for numerous dental procedures including a gum tissue graft. I was very nervous about this procedure and she made it so easy and painless! I highly recommend her.

I’ve been going here for 20+ years since I was a kid getting braces. Dr Engel has always had a world class staff and I’ve followed them throughout even with changes in location, insurance, etc. They have always been extremely attentive and accommodating explaining every procedure and worked with me on the associated costs, always transparent. And of course, Wendy has been and always will be the BEST!

Chuck M. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I just had the best dental experience of my life. Dr. Engel’s office first and foremost is filled with delightful people. I was extraordinarily impressed with his extremely thorough initial consultation. I’ve never had one like it. I have since had a six month cleaning, and a small dental procedure which I was dreading, and yet had the most amazing experience. No pain. No discomfort. Pshew.

Chad B. from Pasadena, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been going to Southern California Dental for over a decade. Since my first visit it has felt like home. The environment is friendly, warm and welcoming. I love the staff here! From the receptionist to the chair it is all very relational. I’ve never felt like just a number. Dr. Engel is one of the most well informed and intentional doctors I’ve ever met. He will carefully explain the newest technology or dental discovery so I get to know I am getting the very best. If these things are important to you then I can’t recommend a better dentistry.

Josh E. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Engel and his staff are the absolute best! They are so friendly and professional every time I come into the office.  I also very much appreciate the fact that Dr. Engel is so high on prevention.  Instead of wanting me to come in all the time to take my money, he always focuses on how I can take care of my mouth so that I don’t have to make more appointments than I need too.  I highly recommend Dr. Engel to anyone who is in need of a dentist!

Rachel T. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Engel and his staff are genuine and kind. I have extremely sorry teeth and have always had to get fillings during check ups but none of my dentists ever focused on prevention like Dr. Engel has. He provided an extremely thorough examination and explained to me the reasons why I am more prone to have cavities, then introduced me to a type of mouthwash that is most recommended for my condition but was not pushy about me having to use it. He also introduced the use of gum picks for the prevention of gingivitis which was also extremely helpful that I’ve never known about! I’ve been going to Dr. Engel for the past year since I do have so many teeth that need work, and each time I go I notice improvements in their service including having blood pressure checks included as part of the routine practice. Dr. Engel is careful in his patent care, when he noticed possible issues he refers out to specialists in root canal and orthodontia so that his patients are given the most appropriate care. When he feels that there are imperfections during dental work, he doesn’t rush through but takes the time to make sure that everything will work well for the patient at home. In addition, he has an amazing team of dental hygienists and administrative staff who are always so kind and accommodating. I have always been scared of going to the dentist because it’s always been a painful experience, but going to Dr. Engel has changed my perception of dentists/dental offices and encouraged me to take even better care of my teeth! Thank you Southern California Dental Health Associates!!

Dr. Engel has been my dentist since I was a kid, and was my parents’ dentist even before that. He and his staff are friendly, professional, and great at what they do. As a college student my schedule can be tricky, but they are always willing to figure something out that gets me the care I need, not to mention they never let me skip a check up! They are truly fantastic, I highly recommend!

I had such an amazing experience at this dentist office. The dentist educated me on things I never had any knowledge of to help keep me nice & healthy! I feel like he truly cares About his patients & their health! He’s very nice and helps you feel comfortable ( especially if you’re scared of going to the dentist like I am ). Also, the staff was just as amazing. So glad I came here & I definitely see why this office has so many good reviews. Keep up the great work ! 🙂

I absolutely hate dentists and dental offices but this office is so well-organized, its staff so friendly, and its professionals so skilled that I don’t have enough superlatives.    The procedures for a cleaning were comprehensive and encompassed steps that I had never undergone before.  I left saying “Wow!”   Wendy, the hygienist, was very helpful and gave me a lot of good tips to follow.   I am actually now water flossing and using a Sonic electric toothbrush appropriately and diligently.   I also completed a crown replacement today.   The temporary fit so well I forgot it was temporary.   Dr. Engel and Roland took such care and manifested a desire for the crown to not only fit but to fit perfectly.   Dr. Engel, in particular, is approachable, cordial, and friendly.   And the office staff–Sandy, Natasha, Wendy–are always smiling, helpful, and friendly as well.  What can I say.   This is the best dental office I have ever gone to…and I am not a spring chicken!

I found Dr. Engel when my face swelled from an abscessed tooth at 2am. The office called me as soon as they opened to make an appointment that morning. Due to not having insurance and trying to make ends meet, I was scared when I went in. Dr. Engel was very friendly and addressed all my concerns before the procedure including financial options. I am deeply impressed with the personal level of care I was provided with and the whole visit was a pleasure. There is a reason for the raving reviews. Highly recommended!

Todd A. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Like most people, I have a lifelong fear and mistrust of dentists. I went to Dr. Engel on the recommendation of a friend of mine, and it was a total pleasure from beginning to end. They welcomed me by name from the moment I walked in, everyone on the staff was friendly and kind and funny. It felt more like I was a guest in their home than a patient they were trying to get money from. The procedure I had done was quick, painless and, strange as it sounds, a total pleasure.

Had my teeth cleaned by Dianne she is an amazing hygienist. Took her time cleaning my teeth and have me some recommendation. I would recommend seeing her. By far the best hygienist!! De. Engel is an amazing Dentist, takes his time explaining his findings and gives his recommendations. He educates you so you know what he is talking about. Would def recommend friends and family.

The best dental office I have ever been to! The whole staff is wonderful and friendly. They always greet me with a smile. Dr. Engel is always gentle and makes sure you are comfortable. When he numbed my mouth I barely felt a thing. Even if I see another dentist there he will come over to say hi and see how I’m doing. He also let me choose  the type of music to put on which was a plus. Dr. Dana is great too! He explains things really well and always tells me how Im moving along with my braces. He was very patient with me too. I moved when I wasn’t supposed to and messed something up. So Dr. Dana just cleaned it up and re-did it, he even started humming afterwards! I actually enjoy going here and love to talk to the staff. I am very glad to have found this place and I would definitely recommend it

Dr. Engel has been my dentist for a few years now, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is the best dentist I have ever been to! Zero pain with shots, excellent at explaining issues and working on a treatment plan with you. Dr. Engel and his staff are all very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable; they make sure you understand everything and are happy before you leave the office. They really put in a lot of time and care for their patients. I have had a lot of bad experiences with other dentists and I am so happy and relieved to have found Dr. Engel. I could go on and on about how amazing Dr. Engel is. Most importantly for me is that he is kind and I know he really cares about my dental and overall health. By far the best dental care you will ever receive.

I am SO glad i found this dental office!! had to reschedule last minute due to work and they were so understanding. i had a good feeling when the doctor personally called me to welcome me as a new patient and ask what my concerns were.. but it didn’t end there the staff from beginning to end were all so wonderful .. the doctor so informative ,kind ,and funny. i walked out of the office with a huge smile! i even called my mom in the car to share the experience. i NEVER leave reviews but this office deserves a million stars. thank you so much and i can’t wait to come back.

I met Dr. Engle to pick up a generous donation he was making toward a homeless outreach in the community. His staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating while scheduling (and even rescheduling) appointments. The office is EXTREMELY clean and uses very up-to-date technology and instruments to gather the most information possible about your mouth health. Dr. Engle (not just the hygienist) a LOT of time with me going over the state of my teeth and guns, and then his plan to increase my overall health. He’s reasonably priced, works with my insurance (Delta Dental) and is an all-around wonderful person. (Note: nearby meters are 1-hour parking only, so it’s probably cheaper to use the structure)

I am a kidney transplant recipient and extremely concerned about Covid. The office has taken all possible precautions from only one person in the waiting room at a time, all rooms have an advanced air filtration system and Wendy and Jon wore a N95 mask with a cover over that and then a face shield. I felt as protected as possible. Thank you everyone at the office. Really and truly the Gold Standard I’m safe practices.

John has been my dentist for the past 6+ years, aside from the incredible quality of dental work performed here, there is a sense of family. All the staff make you feel like you’re their top priority. I’ve never had to wait more than 2 minutes before I’m seen. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this office. If you’ve ever had reservations about going to the dentist I can assure you Dr. Jonathan Engel along with everyone else at So Cal Dental Health Associates is the perfect place to go to put those fears to rest and see how going to the dentist should be!

Dr. Engel was my dentist years ago and I moved so did not see him for awhile.  I am back!!!!  I am so happy to have reconnected with Dr. Engel and his staff (some are still with him 15 years later!) and I could not be happier.  I can assure you that you will never be disappointed with his service, expertise or staff.  Simply the best!  It’s like you are family and that matters doesn’t it?  Without hesitation, please look no further in your search for a good dentist!  You will thank me I promise!

This office easily gets 5 stars. I have had fillings here and go in for my regular teeth cleanings. This is the only office (dental and medical) where I do not feel like I am just another patient and that is very important to me. Personal, attentive, kind and informative.  I strongly believe that this is one of the last offices in LA that really cares about their patients and I am thankful I found them!! Dr Engel is an amazing dentist, I never feel a thing when I’m in his chair. Gentle and precise. The front office staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. They will go above and beyond to help you when it comes to accommodating, easing anxiety, taking payment plans(huge bonus!!) and so much more. Not to mention Dr Engels assistant Roland is hilarious, caring, and always makes sure you are 100% comfortable. If you’re looking for a dentist, this is the best you can get!

I have been going to see Dr. Engel and everyone at Southern California Dental Health Associates for years and I always receive the best dental care and service. Dr. Engel as his staff have always treated me like family when I’m there which is a really nice change of pace from other offices I have been in. I also appreciate how they are always teaching how to really take care of your mouth and prevention so that you don’t have to come in anymore than you have to.

To put it simply, this is the best dental office I have ever encountered by far. I was referred here by a friend and was pleased to discover a very professional and yet familial group. The staff are all very courteous and considerate. From the moment I walked in I was given a warm welcome by each and every member. Dr. Engle is great at what he does. He is jovial and optimistic as well as precise and detail oriented. He uses the most current techniques and equipment which results in quick and effective procedures. Dr. Engle is unique in that he is both thorough and personable. I have never met a dentist that I find to be as lively and interesting as him.The overall environment is clean and relaxing. After every visit I leave feeling more confident about my dental health and pleased with the level of service provided. In fact,  after each visit a member of the staff gives a personal call just to check to see how I am feeling after a few days.  I have never experience such a thorough and caring practice and will continue to bring Dr. Engle and his team my business. I definitely recommend to anyone looking for premier dental care with a personal and caring touch.

Dr. ENGLE is the best Dentist I have found since my family dentist back home in Colorado when I was a kid.  I’ve lived on all 4 corners of the United States, and now I can finally say, that this is the Dentist that I would trust bringing my whole family to well until my grand children start going there.  He’s no joke.  He is the best.  The office admin are superbly always one step ahead of the game.  They always answer the phone, there’s never a long wait for your appointment, and Wendy, his Dental Hygienist is probably the nicest most efficient person (next to Dr. Engle of course) that I’ve ever met.  She is gentle and patient and very caring (funny and adorable too).  Please, if you’re looking for a dental office, pay a visit to them.  You’ll thank me later, I guarantee it 100%.
