PATIENT REVIEWS

Wonderful experience! I am so happy to be a patient here. Michelle is the office manager and will be your first point of contact and she is so friendly, patient and thorough at explaining things. She will explain everything from insurance to all the procedures/protocols during COVID-19.  (For example, they only allow  1 patient in the lobby at a time, they take your temperature when you arrive, etc..) I felt very safe coming here. Last week I had a consultation where I met Dr. Knopf, who is incredible. So personable and kind. She examined my teeth and we made a plan. I got an amazing cleaning from Miriam today. She removed all the stains from my coffee and tea drinking. Such a visible difference. She also made a recommendation to try a different toothpaste to help with stains. I love the fun, modern decor. Everyone is so friendly and professional here. I highly recommend coming here.

From my past experiences, I have an absolute fear of going to the dentist. Dr. Knopf, Corina and Michelle definitely guided me through it, and helped me make sure I felt confortable with the work needed. I insisted that I wanted a painless experience: they definitely delivered!!! I was even able to eat right after my dental work, which has never been the case for me before.  I admire their patience, and the office looks so great and clean, with all the latest technology: it is definitely a reassuring environment. I also was amazed by their flexibility, and how understanding the entire staff was. I without a doubt recommend Dr. Knopf, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my teeth. They are the best dental office I have ever seen and experienced.

Live in the neighborhood of South Park and stopped by the Tooth Shop as a new patient.  Very modern, clean office, with minimalistic décor. Has all the latest bells and whistles in a dentist office.  I appreciate all the effort that was put into my patient experience.  There was a flat scree above the patient chair so I could even watch Netflix during my visit.  My appointment was with Dr. Knopf, and she was extremely thorough and gentle.  She explained all the treatment in detail and answered all my questions.  I highly recommend this dental office in DTLA!

Words won’t do this place justice. Beyond the incredible compassion & patience The Tooth Shop has for patients – the feeling of excitement that they get from your smile getting better and healthier is overwhelmingly beautiful. This has to be where you go for dental work. It’s not even a question. You’ll never need another dental provider again.

Great dentist. The staff are warm and friendly. Very patient. No pun intended. Okay. Pun intended. Knopf and her staff guided me through my first appointment to make me feel at ease. Michele and Veronica greeted me immediately and made the  insurance and sign in process effortless. My full xrays were completed then Carina and Dr Knopf took over the rest offer exam. My husband recommended this office to me because he was impressed with the high quality care and environment. Tooth Shop is gorgeous and equipped with top of the line tools art. It’s so pretty like a pop up shop. Totes Instagram ready Can’t wait for my next appointment

I haven’t always written reviews for places I’ve had great experience, but this place is awesome. It will probably sound like a fake review, but it’s all real. First – the location is really new and clean. Excellent interior design. Not like a stuffy old dentist office. The coolest thing is that I had a TV above me to watch while getting my teeth taken care of. I got to Netflix and Dentist, pretty new for me. Great location. Staff was awesome. Very friendly and polite. Explained every step of the way. I haven’t ever had this much attention from at a medical practice before. All the pricing was completely transparent, and explained to me. They worked to ensure my insurance covered as much as they possibly could. I’d definitely recommend this. Drop your current dentist and go here. The staff is super sweet. The location is brand new and clean. Feels young and fresh.

Today I changed dentists after 15 years, to Dr. Knopf, and it was a great decision.  Not only are she and her terrific staff, Michelle and Corina, super personable, but they use the most modern equipment, processes and techniques.  I had only had cleanings done for all those years, and never knew that I had a few minor issues that had been developing.  Michelle is super knowledgeable about Delta Dental insurance, as well as assisting with several processes.  Corina worked on x-rays, and partnered with Dr. Knopf on evaluations and documenting.  The offices are beautiful, modern, clean and new.  DTLA now has the benefit of a USC graduate and former faculty member to take care of all our dental needs!  Street parking was not difficult to find, too.  I’m referring my friends and family, as well.

I still have all my wisdom teeth and I’m almost 50 years old! In the past, I have been Bullied by dentists who tell me I NEED to have them taken out. I’ve been to many oral surgeons who always disagree and tell me that as long as I can keep them clean and healthy there is no reason to have them taken out as they have come in completely straight and I have plenty of room for them in my mouth. I’ve suggested to other dentists in the past to maybe have my teeth cleaned 3 times a year instead of twice as suggested by the oral surgeon. Dr. Knopf is the first dentist that suggested this to me even before I asked! Dr. Knopf has a natural ability to make you feel safe and comfortable and REALLY listens to your concerns. I live in DTLA in South Park and was looking for a dentist that was walking distance from my apartment. I’m so glad I walked by The Tooth Shop while walking my dog one afternoon and decided to stop in. Michelle was welcoming, wonderful and very informative and I made an appointment. Corina the Dental Assistant is very kind, caring and knowledgable. She is young, sweet and energetic, and by far the most patient person! She takes the time to show me all my x-rays and photos she has taken of my teeth and explains the process along the way. The office technology is top notch! As Dr. Knopf is seeing things in my mouth she able to take a photo and put it up on the screen in front of me so I can see exactly what her concerns are and understand and discuss. I feel like I’m in First Class when I’m here. They even bring you a warm towel on an adorable plate after you are finished in the chair to clean up. This is just one among MANY of the special touches this office provides to their patients. Michelle breaks down your insurance payments and explains every cost to you to help you understand what is covered and what is your portion. You go home with a print out and there are no hidden fees. Paperwork is filled out ahead of time through their website, so when you arrive for your appointment insurance costs have already been calculated and the only thing you need to think about are any questions you might have for the dentist. They have Netflix to entertain you while in the chair. I never feel rushed. It just feels like an afternoon with friends. I have had cavities filled, a mouthguard made, and routine cleanings done at this office. My daughter who has severe anxiety about the dentist and has never been able to get through x-rays was able to complete x-rays for the first time here with Corina. My daughter is 23 years old. Dr. Knopf and Corina spent valuable time with her and made her feel very secure and comfortable and gave her many options and guidance to make an educated decision about her dental health without her feeling any pressure. I have learned many tips and tricks and have been given the correct tools to care for my oral health at home. I feel like all my needs have been met at this office. It really is the complete package both front and back office! I look forward to my appointments.Thank you to the Tooth Shop staff for all your dedicated care! I truly feel special! I would highly recommend this office especially if you are not a fan of going to the dentist, Tooth Shop will forever change your mind!

Best dental experience ever! It started when I walked through the door and was met by Nancy (The Office Manager) and then Karina (The Dental Assistant). Super warm and friendly and genuinely welcoming. The office itself is sparkling, well-designed and high tech. Dr. Knopf came in immediately after my x-rays and took time to conduct the exam, do the cleaning and explain to me my current dental health and all of my options (regarding a few specialty questions I had). Throughout I felt informed and well cared for by Karina and Dr. Knopf. It was unlike any dentist experience I have had in memory. When I had all of my options, Nancy came in and explained to me costs and what my insurance would cover. The transparency was very refreshing. All around a great experience, which is hard to say about any trip to the dentist. I highly recommend!!

I began receiving care at the Tooth Shop when they opened and have been treated a few times! Dr. Knopf is the BEST!!! Her attention to detail is amazing…fillings, bridges, crowns…her work is of the highest quality!! Very professional! Extremely knowledgeable! The absolute best care experience I have ever had!! I highly recommend switching your dentist and moving your care to the Tooth Shop in DTLA.

Went to see Dr.Kim Knopf, she is a very kind and friendly dentist, made it easy to understand what was going on with my teeth and mouth.  She did an amazing job on my cleaning and crown for me. She is very gentle and precise when she is working. Thank you Dr.Kim Knopf for what you did for me!

Dr Knopf is the best dentist ever, ever. I wrote a review for her before but I think it’s still under the last office she shared. So she moved offices and this one is better. The entire staff are sweet and gentle and awesome and punctual and professional. More importantly, I’ve had severe anxiety for years and like many people the dentist is a trigger. I don’t know if it’s the noise or past experiences plaguing me. But I don’t have anxiety going to the dentist anymore thanks to Dr Knopf. In fact I’m eager to go every six months for my cleaning and the annual X-rays are super easy. If you’re looking for a great dentist, this is it.

I’m not even sure where to begin in writing this review. As I’m writing it, tears are welling up in my eyes simply because I’m so thankful to be her patient. Dr. Knopf is extraordinary. She has an eye unlike any other. She’s passionate about what she does and she listens to absolutely everything (the good, the bad, the ugly). She’s the real deal and so is her staff. I got into a very traumatic accident at a young age. I’ve spent the past 17 years trying to fix my front teeth. It’s been a rollercoaster of a journey. I’ve had horrible dentists and dentists that meant well but just couldn’t see my vision. I’ve invested lots of money and time into fixing my teeth. And today I walked out of her office with the smile I’ve been looking for. I will forever be grateful for Dr. Knopf and all of her staff.

Dr. Kimberly Knopf has been my dentist for at least six years now. The quality of her work and her wonderful personal approach to the practice of dentistry was recently highlighted by my experience undergoing a “cap” procedure and replacement of several old fillings. Being a surgeon who performs cosmetic procedures i am very sensitive to patient comfort issues and the need to provide a near painless and comfortable experience. Dr. Knopf surpassed all of my expectations making the two dental office visits an entirely pleasant and easy experience. I recommend her and her and her staff (say hello to Jackie for me) to you wholeheartedly. I can promise you that you will be very pleased. I should also add that my bleaching tray has left me with bright white teeth for the first time in many years. Great job!

Dr. Kim Knopf is one of the most delightful dentists I’ve ever been to! I highly recommend her to anybody looking for a crown! She has the precise & gentle hands of a skilled surgeon, & the mental acuity of a mechanical engineer. I was extremely impressed All of her fellow employees @ Dr Zola’s office in Westwood are wonderful as well. I’ll definitely be going back if I need any other work done.

By far most friendly, professional dentist I’ve ever seen. During a career change I had a lapse in coverage. Dr. Knopf and her office went out of their way to make sure my dental was all covered, even calling an endodontist and convincing them to give me lower rates when I needed emergency root canal. When I had a weird reaction to Novocaine, started shaking and needed something to eat, Dr. Knopf pulled energy bars out of her own lunch for me. Office is clean, fast, and well managed. Their staff also went out of their way to accommodate me at the very restricted times I could get in to see them. I can not emphasize enough how wonderful they are. Deborah and Audrey are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable as well.  I would give this office 20 stars if I could.

Dr. Knopf has fulfilled my everyday dental care needs exactly the way I needed them to be done. Her work on my teeth as a whole has made me have a complete change of confidence, in general, when I take a look in the mirror. Going to her dental office will definitely not be a mistake that you’d take for granted. Every other dentist I have gone to isn’t nearly as focused on my teeth. 5-Star rating, guaranteed!

I’ve been dreading the hunt for a decent dentist since I moved to LA from DC 2 years ago but it looks like I struck gold on the first try. Dr. Knopf and Corina and the entire staff are very friendly and patient and genuinely enjoy their job. They explained everything, checked in regularly, and are very thorough to ensure the job is done well and I was comfortable the entire time. My partner will be switching to the Tooth Shop soon as well since I was so happy with the service I received. As a side note, I also thought they did a great job minimizing patient contact to basically none given the current situation.

I started going to this location last October/November. This was my first time seeing a dentist in over 15 years. I was so ashamed of ignoring my dental health, but they were very helpful getting me started. I have had an awesome all-female team of support, Michelle, Corina, Maryam, and Dr. Knopf; they have taken good care of me (and my tooth decay!), and they have inspired me to try to have better oral health. In case you’re concerned about things now with the pandemic, I’ve been back recently after the Covid-19 closing and I feel safe with the new precautions that they’re taking with patients. Also, if you live in the South Park district in downtown Los Angeles (near FIDM and the Staples Center), then this is a super convenient walking location.

Best team I could’ve asked for. Kind, supportive, friendly and gentle. Excellent for anyone with medical anxieties. Communicative, punctual and quick for every visit. Beautifully designed and incredible interior. Look forward to seeing the staff every time. Thank you to Nancy, Corina and Dr. Knopf for giving me my smile back and helping me through every step of the way. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else.

To be completely honest, this the best dentist shop I’ve visited in my life. The professionalism and the ambiance are impeccable, and the staff is so patient, dedicated, and kind. It’s really awesome to see that they’ve taken COVID-19 seriously. With temperature checks, a screening for symptoms, air purifiers, hand sanitizer, and complete protection for the staff, they are taking the perfect amount of caution necessary (while still pulling off a stellar job when it came to the actual tooth part). The Tooth Shop staff is a great team and people would benefit greatly from trusting them with your teeth

Great experience! It was my first time here and my first time every getting a comprehensive set of x-rays of all my teeth and the roots (18 in total). Dr. Knoff was thorough, professional and pleasant. The office was immaculate and “techy” with their paperless intake system. The staff was friendly and got me in and out within an hour. See you in 6 months for my next teeth cleaning.

As usual, I had a great experience here, from beginning to end. The staff have become like family, and are always so warm, friendly, and attentive. From the beginning, interacting with Michelle and Veronica, to the procedure, shout out to Maryam for doing an excellent job with my cleaning, to catching up with Corina, this dental office is in a category all their own. And although I didn’t interact with Dr. Knopf this visit, she has consistently provided excellent, high quality care for all of my dental needs. Stop your search, look no further, this is the practice you want to establish care with. No seriously, make your appointment now! 🙂

From my past experiences, I have an absolute fear of going to the dentist.  Dr. Knopf, Corina and Michelle definitely guided me through it, and helped me make sure I felt confortable with the work needed. I insisted that I wanted a painless experience: they definitely delivered!!! I was even able to eat right after my dental work, which has never been the case for me before. I admire their patience, and the office looks so great and clean, with all the latest technology: it is definitely a reassuring environment. I also was amazed by their flexibility, and how understanding the entire staff was. I without a doubt recommend Dr. Knopf, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my teeth. They are the best dental office I have ever seen and experienced.

This is really a first class dental office. Even though it just recently opened, they have experienced dental experts with courteous and professional staff. The office is impeccably clean and has the latest technology and equipment, including multiple flat screen devices everywhere for X ray and dental evaluation. It reminded me of going into a high end oral surgery center instead of a place that I came for my teeth cleaning. Dr. Knopf’s pedigree, education and experience certainly speak volumes. I found her dental care to be gentle but powerful and effective with great results. Today (a day after my first visit), I am happy to report a noticeable improvement with my previously discolored teeth. An overall pleasant and amazing dental experience if there could ever be one. Will definitely return with regularity and I highly recommend!

I’m like deathly afraid of needles… so when Dr Knopf said I had a small cavity that needed filled I was terrified. Boy was I WRONG! She made me so comfortable and used a numbing gel first, then the numbing stuff. I couldn’t feel a thing! And it only took less than 5 min to fill. Dr Knopf is probably the nicest and best dentist I’ve ever gone too. We had a really nice conversation and she asked if I was doing okay after everything we did. I had a lot of coffee stains on my teeth and she polished them back to whiteness! Her office staff is also extremely nice and helpful. They told me the price of everything before I said yes, and they aren’t like some dentists that try and sell you tons of things. I will definitely come back here! Thank you Dr Knopf for everything! You totally changed my perspective on dentists.

Came in for my first checkup and cleaning and really enjoyed the experience. The office is nice and new and they have all the latest equipment and comforts… including a tv on the ceiling so you can browse Netflix while you’re getting a cleaning. The staff is very courteous and professional and does a great job with appointment changes (my bad!) and all the typical pre-cleaning activities. Dr. Knopf is also great. She took care of my cleaning with minimal discomfort, asked all the right questions about my history and had me wrapped up and out of the office on time. I will definitely be back!

I had SUCH an amazing experience here! After recently moving to California I was struggling to find a good dental practice that had everything I’m looking for: clean, ethical, educational, and honest. I am so SO grateful my husband and I found this practice, I could cry! Dr.Knopf was extremely sharp and present. She attended to all my needs and even picked up on the fact that I get extremely anxious when visiting the dentist, which made me feel acknowledged and validated. The dental assistant and receptionist were extremely nice and knowledgeable about everything and I felt very well taken care of. Highly, HIGHLY recommend! Don’t sleep on this place!!

Best dentist I have ever been to! The office itself feels like a place you would just hang out at; Dr. Knopf, Corina & Nancy all are so friendly and sweet; and the actual dental work part is as professional and high tech as it gets. Dr. Knopf was able to–in real time–take pictures of the matter we were discussing and show them on a large tv screen. Was refreshing to actually feel apart of the process and understand what was going on, rather than just being told. Would highly recommend!

I have always had anxiety about going to the dentist, I am terrified of everything that has to do with dentistry even just getting X-rays. Corina and Dr. Knopf have gone above and beyond to support me and make me feel comfortable. Corina is so supportive, even just a touch on the shoulder and her kind words letting me know how great I’m doing and that everything will be ok has helped me tremendously. Dr. Knopf is amazing at answering all my questions and really taking my fears/anxiety into consideration. She truly cares about making this a great and less scary situation for me providing me with alternative ways to accomplish the dental work I need. For example I had 8 cavities, yes you heard me correctly 8! I was terrified as I have never had a cavity before in my life and knew it involved getting shots in my mouth. I was able to talk to Dr. Knopf about ways that I would be able to get through the procedure without having a panic attack. I am proud to say that with the support of Corina and Dr. Knopf I was able to get all 8 cavities done in one appointment. Dr. Knopf worked quickly and efficiently, asking me how I was doing the whole time and making sure I was able to take a break if I needed one and at the end of the procedure told me how impressed she was that I was able to do that. Corinna was awesome helping me get through the 4 shots they had to do, putting her hand on my arm and saying its gonna be ok! She also gave me stress balls to hold the whole time during my procedure which helped a lot, giving me something else to focus on. I can’t say enough amazing things about the tooth shop and will never be able to go to another dentist again as I love the care and knowledge that Corina and Dr. Knopf provide. Through all their care and patience I have gained courage and no longer fear the dentist chair. Therefore, when Dr. Knopf gave me a referral to get my wisdom teeth extracted, I am confident that I will be able to get through the procedure and that she has put in good hands with her choice of an oral surgeon. Thank you to the entire Tooth Shop Team!

I was looking for a dentist in my neighborhood, and walked into the office one day while walking my dog. Scheduled an appointment. I love the service, the attention to detail, the cleanliness of the office and top notch technology. The hygienist was great and Dr. Kimberly Knopf was the best.  I highly recommend and will return for future visits and bring my family!

Fabulous , friendly, fastidious, efficient, state of the art dental office !!!! I just switched over to Dr. Knopf from my dentist of 15 years — what a refreshing change to walk into a welcoming, bright, clean, bustling yet tranquil office vs an old, stodgy, antiquated office ((((with $10. per hour or more -parking fees)) as I had been going to prior to meeting this team ~ I needed a teeth cleaning ; Sabah was FABULOUS, detailed, pleasant and worked in a very timely fashion without rushing. her up to -the- minute teeth cleaning tool is amazing ! Dr Knopf has a very confident, assuring, manner and is a beautiful, chic, calming presence – never met such a stunning dentist ! Her work was meticulous and painless even when administering an injection. 2 full crowns and 1 re- cementing of a crown & I was in her chair just over an hour. Her 2 dental assistants ; Lida & Deborah – were very very pleasant and certainly performed more detailed dental assistance than any office I have ever gone to. I noticed that everyone speaks to each other very respectfully -many “please & thank yous ” 🙂 At the front desk , Brandon , keeps all running like clock work ..he seems a bit gruff at first but is a lovely & humourous man ~ I have already referred 2 friends to Dr. Knopf

I’ve only recently started seeing Dr. Knopf, but I am so happy that I found her on ZocDoc. I have horrible, overwhelming anxiety when it comes to dental work and she’s been incredibly patient with me throughout my series of visits, taking every step to ensure that I am as comfortable as possible while she works. Her assistant Star is awesome too, as are the front desk ladies. Parking is typically easy as well, with the 2hr free garage right around the corner on Bedford. Highly recommend them!

I have been a patient of Dr. Knopf for 7+ years.  Her technical proficiency is excellent; she also has an outstanding network of specialists if you need advanced surgery.  Dr.Knopf has both a great sense of humor and is an outstanding listener (always gives me as much novocaine as I need; I am afraid of all pain).  Her rates are really reasonable — especially for a Beverly Hills dentist and her staff could not be kinder.  This is as close to a pleasurable experience as going to the dentist can be!

So happy someone referred me to Dr. Knopf and her wonderful office several years ago.  Great atmosphere, super friendly and kind people, and Dr. Knopf takes her profession seriously when it comes to delivering the best possible work.  She’s also really funny and human which is helpful when you’re facing the stress of dental work.  The entire staff reflects that competent / kind combination.  Couldn’t recommend them more highly.
