This was the best experience with a dentist I’ve ever had. I had some major issues going on and had been afraid to see a dentist for many years. I walked into this dentist and Dr. Tabesh changed the way I perceive a dentist forever. I didn’t experience one bit of pain or discomfort at any point during my visit. She took her time and explained everything to me as she performed her practice. I had 6 abstractions performed and a deep clean and I am still mind blown over the professionalism and level of performance that I experienced. I left that day feeling secure and confident about my mouth for the first time in many years. It’s a cozy secluded and well maintained establishment with the most amazing staff. You simply feel at home. I’ve been back for follow ups and additional work and each time I visit it’s like no other experience. I can actually say for the first time in my life,  I look forward to my appointments and I’m no longer afraid of going to the dentist. I highly recommend this Dentist and I assure you that Dr. Tabesh & her staff will give you the best overall experience

If anyone asks me for a dentist recommendation, I’ll be sending them here. There’s a good chance I’ll be starting future conversations with, “Good to see you again. You need a great dentist?” Everyone at this office is kind, smart, and FUN! There’s a joy that people radiate when they are happy. I feel that from the folks here. Thanks for making a visit to the dentist as enjoyable as possible

Is it weird to be super-enthused about your dentist? Because when it comes to Dr. Tabesh and her staff, I kinda am. After my last dentist moved offices to an inconvenient new location, I sought recommendations from family and friends and was referred to Dr. Tabesh. I wish I had looked for a new dentist sooner, because being a patient at Toluca Lake Cosmetic Dentistry is so much better than being with my previous dentist. I didn’t know what I was missing, but Dr. Tabesh’s careful attention to my teeth has already made all the difference. I previously had gotten a number of fillings and a couple crowns and some of them, it turns out, could have been done better (there were some open margins in crowns, i.e. gaps that could lead to sensitivity and/or further decay). Dr. Tabesh recently replaced one of my larger fillings with a  crown and actually had the crown partly redone (at no cost to me or my insurance) before installing (not sure that’s the right word for a tooth repair but so be it!) because it would have been uncomfortable to floss. In other words, I went from an office where some of my crowns weren’t even put on correctly to an office where someone cares enough to make sure my new tooth isn’t going to give me problems down the road. I’m extremely happy with my experience so far — both for this crown and for my cleanings overall — and I love the very personable and helpful staff here. All the charges to me and my insurance have been explained ahead of time, so I’m not blown away by a surprise bill later on. As to the cleanings, X-rays and overall manner, I am not a person who’s freaked by dental visits but I think even if you are, Dr. Tabesh and her staff are the type that will make sure you’re comfortable throughout. For example, I do prefer to be numbed before procedures (even if it means a bit of weird-mouthed drooliness later) and receiving the Novocain shot has been painless and effective each time. Last but not least, I think it’s cool that they keep a a bowl of Hershey candies in the waiting room. (A dentist offering you candy just shows she’s confident that you can enjoy sweets and she’s going to take care of your teeth well enough that she’s not pressed by it!)

I was looking for a convenient dentist near my work place, and my coworker recommended that I see Dr Tabesh. I hated going to the dentist, but I eventually took her advice because it was near. The first thing that Dr Tabesh did was handed me a gift basket and asked me to give it to my coworker for recommending me! I came during the holidays and I noticed on my way out that the staffs were filling out the holiday cards and were  including Starbuck gift cards. And then I remembered thinking that my old dentist never did that. It is nice to see that Dr Tabesh and staffs are so genuinely nice and take good care of their patients. I’ve since had two crowns, a teeth whitening, and will continue to come back for more. Friendly staffs and Dr. Tabesh’s nice disposition  aside, you would be a fool to overlook this place. I also like the fact that the staffs are helpful, quick to respond, and they are fun to talk to while they are doing your teeth

Dr. Tabesh is a fantastic dentist! I’ve been seeing her for general dentistry for two years, but also she did my veneers and did an awesome job. She has a really charismatic personality and is always upbeat whenever you go in for an appointment. They also have a great price on your regular dental cleanings so it’s affordable to get regular cleanings. What’s really stand-out about this office is the outstanding customer service. Both Tabesh and her staff have always been very accessible and friendly, and go above and beyond to make sure that I’m comfortable during my visit, and to check in on me after some of the more in-depth appointments. When Tabesh did my veneers, I couldn’t eat solid foods and had some long appointments, so she bought me smoothies so I wouldn’t get hungry during the procedures. She spent extra time and scheduled extra appointments with me to make sure that the veneers would look exactly right. She also was very hands on in communicating with my periodontist and actually sat in on my periodontist appointment. Really top notch, thorough dentist who doesn’t cut corners and has high standards. Best dentist I’ve had!

Dr. Tabesh helped me with an abutment and crown after having to have a tooth extracted.  I had never had an implant before and she examined me when I had some tooth pain on a tooth that previously had a root canal.  She was very conservative with her plan and I appreciated that because I was nervous about having a tooth pulled.  Nine months later I have a beautiful new crown that fits so nicely in with my other teeth that it looks real.  My oral surgeon said she did an amazing job as well. Dr. Tabesh always explains everything and gives you options for what she can do to help you.  The staff there is really friendly and they help you get scheduled with very little wait time. I highly recommend Dr. Tabesh!

★★★★★

I have been going to Dr. Tabesh for the past few years and the service has always been excellent. Dr. Tabesh and her staff are truly as good as it gets! Everyone at this office is always so welcoming and caring.  I am in and out quickly and I don’t have to wait for hours in the waiting area or in the chair. Both Dr. Tabesh and her assistant Karla, took the time to explain everything thoroughly and walked me through the procedures step by step. The hygienist Natalia was very gentle with my deep cleaning and made it the experience so much easier. It is such a positive and atmosphere, but yet they are so professional and knowledgeable Dr. Tabesh is a rare find, indeed, and I’m so grateful for her.  She deserves every five-star review that you see here. She and her staff are truly that exceptional! If you’re looking for a top notch dentist, look no more!

Toluca Lake Cosmetic Dentistry is the best! Seriously. My girlfriend and I have been coming to the office for almost two years and can’t believe we got so lucky finding Dr. Tabesh. She and her staff (shoutout to Natalia and Carla!) genuinely care. I am definitely not someone who looks forward to visiting the dentist but they make it so easy. Dr. Tabesh is incredibly accommodating, personable, and knowledgeable. The office is always on top of everything. We couldn’t recommend them enough

★★★★★

Where do I even begin? After having some very traumatic dentist visits in the past I didn’t go to the dentist for an embarrassing amount of time. I hated my teeth and some previous bonding work and was getting married in a few months so I finally googled best dentist in LA for dental anxiety & Dr Tabesh came up. I bit the bullet and went in and was so relieved at how kind and patient not only Dr Tabesh was but her entire staff. I had to come in quite a few times over the process of veneers and at one point had broken my foot (I was a mess haha) and they always made sure I was comfortable and doing ok. I will never go to another dentist again. I’m so glad I found this office and I recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist.

When you find a good dentist and dental hygienists it’s hard to say good-bye. I’ve been seeing Dr. Tabesh, Carla, and Annie for years, and have since moved to Santa Clarita Valley but continue (and will continue) to trek back every 6 months, and as needed for my dental primary care. This entire crew is personable, sensitive, flexible, and honest. I had neglected my teeth for a pretty long time, mostly because I felt every time that I got back on the horse no difference was made – I still got cavities. I was upfront with Dr. Tabesh from the start, and instead of giving me the paternalistic fifth degree she asked me what my goals were for my dental health, and her entire team helped me to achieve them. When I first transferred care to her I had an old root canal that had “gone bad” and she called and DROVE me to a specialist the very same day for an opinion. She referred me to an orthodontist, and now I actually look forward to going to the dentist though she takes such good care of me that I only have to go every six months now. My teeth are not perfect, and I never expected or wanted them to be, but now I can smile with confidence, and they’re definitely more healthy. For such an intimate part of your health I can not recommend these ladies highly enough

Michele G. from Burbank, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

If you’re like me, finding a great dentist is like finding a great hair stylist; you’ll want to keep them forever. Dr. Tabesh falls into that category. Not only is she dedicated to her profession, and takes great pride in her work, she genuinely cares about her clients. Her personable and friendly “girl next door” charm makes every visit a pleasant one. From a patient standpoint she and her staff always make sure I am comfortable and in no pain. Any question I may have regarding a treatment or a procedure she will thoroughly explain it to me so I am well informed. From a financial standpoint, Dr. Tabesh is very upfront and honest in regards to cost breakdown, too. So, to wrap this up I highly recommend Dr. Tabesh and her terrific staff, Annie and Carla, for all of your dental needs

Roger M. from Burbank, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Farnoosh is the absolute best dentist ever! I am such a pansey when it comes to even getting my teeth cleaned, but she takes such care while cleaning my teeth that she has changed my perception of going to the dentist.  Instead of every six months, I see her every three months.  I have had tons of dentists in the past and I have always loathed going to the dentist, but then I found Dr. Farnoosh and now enjoy going to the dentist.  Her place in Toluca Lake is very accessible and kid friendly. Her staff is always extremely nice to me and makes sure my family and I are always well taken care of.  I recommend her to anyone looking for a good family dentist!

Steve S. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’ve been looking for another dentist for over a year and thought I would be more comfortable with a female dentist.  Everybody in the office is female and they are all kind, sweet, caring and professional. I liked my last dentist, but always felt like I was on an assembly line and had very little interaction with him.  I have had a LOT of work done with Dr. Tabesh, and she always explains everything in great detail and is very personable. As a bonus, she also has a great sense of humor and is a knockout! She almost makes going to the dentist a pleasurable experience….almost. I mean, come on, she’s still a dentist, let’s not get too carried away here.  But since I have been seeing her, I no longer dread going to the dentist. She makes things as easy as it could possibly be

Kimberly G. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Tabesh is amazing. She has taken care of all my dental needs. Everything from regular teeth cleaning to teeth whitening and fixing my crown. I used to be so scared of the dentist and the anticipated pain I would feel, but she has made the dentist visit pain free. I have never been one to keep up with my dental appointments but now I actually look forward to making appointments to get my teeth cleaned. She has also taken care of my husband and referred him to get his Invisalign done. She also gave me a great referral for my teeth extraction. She really takes care of her patients. I have referred my coworkers and their children and will continue to do so! Thanks Dr. Tabesh! You’re the best!

I’m 54 and I had the same dentist since I was 19.  I liked my previous dentist but I’ve known Dr. Tabesh for a few years and thought I’d give her a try with a cleaning and to check out the pain in a left molar.  Her staff was pleasant any very accommodating in setting up the appointment.The office, waiting room and procedure rooms are clean and bright.  The equipment is state of the art (far newer technology than my old dentist used). Dr. Tabesh had an uncommon blend of being straight forward and also making me feel at ease when informing me my discomfort was because I had a cavity, first in 20 years.  She also informed me of a need to address my receding gums.  I appreciated that she let me know both needed treatment, that there were several options of treatment, but didn’t pressure me.  
We went ahead with the cleaning where she was thorough with sensitivity to my comfort level, which was high. I was happy with the cleaning experience and happily agreed to have further work done which was done about a month later, resolving my long standing molar pain. Dr. Tabesh is professional, is flexible about scheduling, is reasonably priced and is pleasant.

I changed insurance and needed a new dentist.  I went on Yelp to see reviews.  I noticed that most dentists had half 5 star and the other half 1 star reviews.  It seems to be a love or hate relationship.  So I was curious when I saw Mark’s review with 3 stars.  He didn’t seem to have any actual criticism.  How odd that he complained about people writing who have done less than 13 reviews when he himself has only written four.  The nerve of some people.  So I correctly ignored him. I just came home from my first visit to Dr. Tabesh.  Trust the reviews below and her 5 star rating.  Annie the receptionist/dental technician was professional, welcoming, and did a great job on my full x-rays.  Their state of the art equipment means no more biting down on hard cardboard which feels as though it’s cutting your mouth.  She had the results instantly which were displayed on a screen I could see. Then Dr. Tabesh came in.  She took the time to look at and evaluate my x-rays, explaining everything she saw.  I happen to take good care of my teeth but I was worried she might try to slip in extra dental work.  Nope!  She said everything was perfectly fine. I can’t reccomend her highly enough and she accepts Liberty Dental Plan.  Yay!  I’ve found my new life-time dentist. P.S. I have written many reviews but not often; maybe they drop the number after inactivity for a year

Due to the fact that I currently only have an HMO plan for my dental insurance I was pretty hard pressed to find a good dentist that accepted the plan but was also reliable and professional. So, I did a lot of research on yelp to find the best option and needless to say I was glad that I checked out the reviews here before selecting a dentist because that is how I found Dr. Tabesh. Not only did she accept the plan I had but she also had some of the best reviews around. She was kind and courteous and was very up front for what I needed. I knew I needed a cleaning since I hadn’t had one in three years so I was kind of nervous about going to the dentist in the first place, but she did an excellent job of making me feel relaxed and making the cleaning go as smoothly as possible. I did need a few fillings, as I suspected, and one of them was kind of deep, but the procedure was stress free and she gave me options of what I could do about the fillings and tried to work within my price range since my HMO plan wouldn’t cover all of the costs. Because one of my fillings was kind of deep, there was some soreness involved, but that’s pretty standard. Overall I would highly recommend Dr. Tabesh, especially if you are on a budget and want to see someone trustworthy to work on your dental needs, which we well all do!

I am so excited to leave a glowing review for this amazing dentist and staff. Starting at the front desk, Annie and Natalia were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and made my entrance as a new patient easy and painless. Dr. Tabesh is friendly, knowledgeable, approachable and filled with nuggets of wisdom. Ben did an awesome job cleaning my teeth and was a fountain of knowledge and information, which he generously shared with me. I learned more about dentistry in one visit than I have in my entire lifetime! I went to see Dr. Tabesh because of the amazing Yelp reviews and she and her staff did not disappoint. I am happy to give them my highest possible recommendation!

I’d been putting off finding a dentist in LA because frankly it’s a nightmare. You’ve only got one set of teeth and you never really know if this new stranger is going to treat them well or leave you in a world of pain. But Dr. Tabesh really cares. I showed up with teeth that were ground down from stress and pushed out of alignment as well. She worked together with me to put together a plan to fix it all, even giving me tips on how to handle my insurance and offering referrals to other specialists. No pain, no pressure, no guilt, just help. Her entire staff is just as great as she is. They’re kind, gentle, smart, and unbelievably accommodating. This is the best I’ve ever felt about going to the dentist

Jessica K. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Still love this dentist office! Dr. Tabesh and her staff are all so friendly and enjoyable. They are great with my son, who is not a fan of pain or discomfort, but he tolerates the usual dentist mouth-invading discomforts of these ladies because they put him at ease. We always leave the office feeling like we had spent time with old friends, rather than at a healthcare professional’s office. There was even a good turnout of patients at a going-away gathering for their former receptionist who moved away (hi Annie, if you read this!), because the service here is just that exceptional that it deserves recognition. If you need a dentist, choose this one

Like most people going to the dentist is not something I usually would look forward to, but with Dr. Tabesh I actually do!! Everyone is so nice and friendly. My whole family comes here and my daughter actually enjoys coming here as well! When do you ever hear of a kid that wants to go to the dentist?! Since we started with Dr. Tabesh I actually stick to my cleaning schedule :)! Between myself, husband and kids we have had a lot of work done; cleanings, teeth whitening, crowns, veneers, and a referral to an orthodontist! We have been really happy with all of their services! If you are “dentist adverse” as I used to be, I STRONGLY recommend coming to Dr. Tabesh! They are extremely professional, but what I really love about them is their welcoming and friendly personalities

I came to Dr. Tabesh back in September for an emergency appointment because my gum was starting to hurt and I didn’t want to take any chances before going on a mini vacation. The receptionist was awesome and so sweet! She worked with my schedule and definitely made sure I was able to come in due to my emergency situation. Natalia was amazing. She explained everything and took her time and made sure I was comfortable. Dr. Tabesh was awesome with working with my insurance. At the time, I only had HMO. But she definitely helped with making sure I made the right decision in how to tackle my gum that was bothering me. I had to pay out of pocket but Dr. Tabesh worked with me, which I appreciated very much! After I left, I felt so much better and felt reassured that I could always call back with any questions or concerns. I also told them that I would come back once my insurance changed to PPO. I came back today for a cleaning and I was greeted with the same exceptional customer service.Natalia was amazing once again. My teeth definitely feel great after the cleaning. Dr. Tabesh also went over what she recommended for me after being seen. I know I can trust Dr. Tabesh’s opinion and recommendations when it comes to my teeth. She isn’t trying to take your money. She makes the recommendations and let’s you know what is a must and what can be put on hold. Thank you so much for making my experience at the dentist a pleasant one once again, especially because going to the dentist is usually a drag!

I recently came to Toluca Lake Cosmetic Dentistry as I wanted to try another dentist more in my area so I researched and ended up here based on other positive reviews. I can see why Dr. Tabesh and her staff have such great reviews. Dr. Tabesh and her staff are very welcoming and I am happy to say I have a new dentist now! Dr. Tabesh has a great attitude and I really like her honest no nonsense personality as she is open about pricing and procedures needed. If you are looking for an excellent dentist in this area, look no further! They also have free dedicated parking in rear of building which is nice as well as easy street parking

I’ve been a patient for less than 2 years now and can honestly say that Dr Tabesh and her staff are the best, period!! I’ve had many subpar experiences with other dentists all over SoCal, I’ve finally found the most well run facility with an excellent staff (Carla, Erica and Natalia) along with the most qualified, caring and true professionalism – Dr. Tabesh. She will go the extra mile to make your visit comfortable and her work ethic is beyond stellar. The work she just completed for me has made me want to smile again in public. I’m very grateful and blessed to have her as my dentist and will continue coming to her indefinitely. I have also advised other friends to make an appointment. I suggest to do the same – you’ll be more than glad you did! Thank you again Dr. and staff! Sincerely, Rich L

I’m not the biggest fan of being in the dental chair, but Dr. Tabesh is as good as it gets when it comes to putting the patient at ease.  She makes sure she does all that she can so that the patient feels hardly anything in procedure, and she’s a perfectionist.  I was certain i would need root canal procedure, because i was unable to eat hardly anything on the right side of my mouth without discomfort.  I was able to avoid that, and instead, have crowns placed.  They feel and work like a charm, and i am eating normally.  Her friendly and knowledgeable office staff works seamlessly with her, and help to make the experience as quick and comfortable as possible

Dr. Tabesh and her entire staff are absolutely the BEST!!!! From the moment you call or walk in the office, Annie is there to greet you with a smile and a warm welcome. Her dental hygienist, Karla, is so kind and puts you at ease. Natalia recently performed my deep cleaning and I found her to be so gentle…she is a pro! The big shout out goes to Dr. Tabesh!!! I am someone who does not like the dentist chair!! I get anxious and stressed out, but Dr. Tabesh knows this about me and makes me feel sooo comfortable when I am there. She is kind, warm and an excellent dentist. She gives you all the options to make informed decisions about what treatment is best for you. Dr. Tabesh treats you like she would treat a friend and that is the best feeling

Dr. Faroosh spent a generous amount of time with me. That is what I appreciated most of all.  Her and her staff were very sensitive to my comfort during my cleaning as well…and I have a lot of sensitivity.  My teeth looked great after. The Dr. also discovered that i have signs of grinding (that explains the sliver of tooth the came off last year). The doctor who repaired it did not look for a cause and just told me it’s part of age.  She recommended a night guard. There are some over the counter options but after some research I’ve decided to spend the extra money and get a mold fitted by the Dr. Faroosh. Over the counter products tend to allow your teeth to shift inside guard and also affect your bite which can cause problems down the road.  Her practice is young and yet she seems more concerned with making long lasting relationships with her patients then trying to up-sell services, procedures and products.  She gave me the information and put no pressure on me. Great experience

I was referred to Toluca Lake Cosmetic Dentistry by my sister, and I couldn’t be happier! Dr. Tabesh is the most kind, caring, and professional dentist I have met in nearly 20 years. Upon my first visit the other day, I was embarrassed to admit that I had not seen the inside of a dental office in well over a decade! While dealing with Rheumatoid Arthritis for most of my life, I have suffered through spells of lockjaw which have made eating and brushing/flossing my teeth excruciatingly difficult. Although I have always been meticulous about my dental health, I eventually gave up seeing a dentist years ago because it was just too humiliating and painful. I am ELATED to say that Dr. Tabesh has changed all that for me! She handled me with compassion and understanding, never making me feel bad or embarrassed in any way. She was gentle and thorough with the cleaning, as were her lovely employees with my x-rays and polishing. Thank you, Dr. Tabesh, for restoring my dental health and my faith in dental practitioners!

I found Dr. Tabesh after having a bad experience with another dentist in the area who felt like it was a burden to see my family. Dr. Tabesh had excellent reviews on Yelp and once again Yelp did not let me down. I was the first of my family to see the Dr. Annie at the front desk is a doll. Very friendly and personable. Dr. Tabesh and the rest of her staff were no different. When it was time for my husband to visit he needed two appointments for a deep clean. Due to his busy schedule Dr. Tabesh agreed to come in on her day off for him. She goes above and beyond for her clients and always treats us as friends when we are there. I would highly recommend her for your dental needs

I’ve been seeing Dr. Tabesh for the last couple years I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes in the waiting room. The entire group is extremely organized and punctual.  In addition, the fact that they are easy to approach makes every appointment relaxing. Dr. Farnoosh and her entire staff are always actively involved and make sure their patients leave with a pleasant experience. Every time I go for a simple check up, Dr. Farnoosh always does a thorough investigation of potential problems that could be occurring or might occur in the near future. In my most recent visit for cleaning, I was surprised when she said I am developing Gingivitis. I wasn’t expecting to hear that since I had gone only for cleaning. She also always asks if I have any questions and patiently answers them. I’m very thankful for having such a caring and observant dentist. Honestly, this dental group is a great example of how all doctor’s offices should be. With their great attitudes, professionalism, and attention, I couldn’t ask for more. Thanks to Dr. Tabesh, going for dental appointments have become fun and comforting instead of intimidating and annoying. I definitely recommend this dental group to EVERYONE!!! You will absolutely love it!!!

Dr. Tabesh and her team embody all the elements that make you want to keep going back to your dentist for more. This office is upbeat, relaxed, efficient, and well known for impressive results. Dr. Tabesh only looks out for your best interest, and gives an honest all BS aside opinion of what needs to be done and what can be avoided. I hadn’t been to a dentist in a number of embarassing years, so as fate would have it, I had quite a few things to take care of, which meant a lot of dentist appointments. Sounds not so fun, but to my surprise as well, I truly enjoy going to my dentist. I love these ladies, and they are a little bit like family to me.  I have full faith in Dr. Tabesh when it comes to my teeth, and she probably has full faith in me that I will at some point doze off in her chair, a new phenomena for me.As a woman, I love coming to this practice because these ladies are the beauties and the brains.  It’s incredibly empowering and inspiring to see how amazing they are all able to run an amazing practice all the while have a good time doing it. Upfront Annie is wonderful, always reminds me of my appointments, and is understanding of my hectic schedule when I need a last minute reschedule. She takes her time to get to know you, and goes the extra mile to help me with whatever I need in going through my dental ascension 🙂 As for Dr. Tabesh and her assistant, they work together with such fluidity, sometimes I forget there’s two people above me instead of one. Both work so efficiently, but with remarkable ease. As for being a little unsure of what I need to do, Dr. Tabesh never says or suggests anything that she is not 100% confident in. Dr. Tabesh has great rapport and I immediately felt a strong sense of trust and confidence with her like I have never quite experienced with any doctor before. (and coming from a nurse!) I really want to thank these ladies for putting themselves fully into their work every day and creating such a place that I never thought existed, at least with the word Dentisry at the end. What can I say, Women do it better!…Your faithful patient.

I had my first exam & xrays with Dr. Tabesh last week. I am a person who doesn’t like going to the dentist at all. This was actually a good experience though. The doctor and her staff were all kind, gentle, and thorough. They use digital x-rays, which I hadn’t seen before, so you see your xrays on a computer screen right away. The cleaning was also thorough and as gentle as a dental cleaning can be. Dr. Tabesh also had her assistant take additional, more detailed pics of the 2 teeth that had cavities to show me in detail what was wrong. For once I can trust a dentist not to be trying to scam me for work that doesn’t need done. This dentist is honest and ethical. I was so pleased I am returning next week for a teeth bleaching. My teeth are quite sensitive & I have some exposed roots so she even gave me some desensitizing gel free so the bleaching won’t leave my teeth overly sensitive. Excellent dentist! I highly recommend!

I am writing this review after seeing a previous,negative review and want to give my honest review of my own experience. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, of course, my intention is not to be argumentative it is purely to shed some light on how I felt about my time at this practice. Let me start of by making something clear…this is the ONLY yelp review I have ever written because it’s the only time I’ve felt passionately enough to do so. That does not make my opinion fake or inauthentic for not having given over 12 reviews, if anything, it makes it more authentic because, for once, I have chosen to give my opinion as I feel that strongly about Dr Tabesh, her staff and her practice. If there was a way to prove my authenticity ,without divulging personal information on here, I most certainly would. I am British, had no dental insurance when I first visited and am genuinely petrified to my core of dentists (I had an horrendous experience with a terrible dentist in UK and it got to the point, that I could not even walk into a dentist for over 10 years), and was clueless to how the system works out here. I read the amazing reviews on here and was not disappointed. She is INCREDIBLE. From the moment I stepped into the office, shaking like a leaf, the wonderful, caring staff made sure I was as comfortable as possible. My nerves were obvious and Dr Tabesh came in to meet me and immediately was genuinely caring, patient and explained EVERYTHING to me. She put me at ease in a situation I never believed I would be ok with. She recommended I get a root canal by Dr Artin Davoodian who was also unbelievably kind, generous and explanatory in every way possible. I then went back to Dr Tabesh and Carla and they held my hand, laughed with me when I needed my spirits raised a bit and made sure I was in no more pain. They reassured me gently and sincerely throughout each of the procedures Ive had done over the past month. I have now been to her 4 times and each time am absolutely blown away by her personal touch and passion for treating her patients with absolute respect, generosity of time and her insatiable need, no matter how long it takes, to get everything perfect and make sure I know everything thats happening or is about to happen. And I absolutely LOVE my teeth now instead of hiding them all the time. Im going back next week and should be terrified but, astoundingly, I am perfectly calm and actually looking forward to seeing Dr Tabesh and her brilliant staff again. I know Im in good hands. She has single handedly put my lifelong phobia to rest and I will be forever grateful. Thank you to Dr Tabesh,and her staff. S. E. JACKSON

Love the staff, every person I’ve met has been so kind and personable! The dental work by my hygienist, Natalia, has always been incredibly gentle yet a good thorough cleaning. She does a great job establishing a relationship with the patient so he/she feels very comfortable and relaxed. They are always very accommodating with my ever-changing schedule, going above and beyond to find a time to fit me in at the last minute. Cannot recommend them enough!

I have gone to several dentist in this city but I finally found a winner. Dr Tabesh makes  going to the dentist almost something I look forward to. The office is clean and very comfortable that provide free parking. The staff is very friendly and professional. I have always been seen on time and have never had to wait passed my appointment time. Dr Tabesh makes you feel extremely comfortable explaining  everything she is doing. I have gone through several procedure all pain free.  I totally trust her as my dentist.  I have recommended her to all my friends and family and they all have thanked me for finding them such an exceptional dentist
