PATIENT REVIEWS

This Dentistry is the best dental office I’ve been to in a long time for one specific reason, customer service. After speaking to the receptionist for a minute I already felt like we had a real rapport and like I could trust them. When I arrived everything was pleasant, personable, and fast. No hard sells, no complex jargon, no unnecessary extra appointments. Dentists are one of those relationships in life where you can’t afford to just go with anyone… when your first impression on jobs or dates depends on how you look… I feel lucky that I have a great dental partner that I can count on.

Came in for a whitening. Procedure was relatively quick and comfortable. Compared to other offices around the price was very reasonable. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. The facility is clean and has easy parking. I would definitely go back and recommend this office to others.

Dr. Vafa was amazing as I have crippling dentist anxiety. Coming to the office everyone was friendly and helpful. The Dr. made me comfortable and even comforting when we spoke of further treatment I would need. I would definitely recommend this dentist to anyone. They even had a great first time patient deal when you are starting at their office!

Dr. Vafa and his team were really courteous when I got there. I’m not from the US and had some serious dental pain due to inflamed gum tissue around my wisdom tooth when I’ve been in LA. Dr. Vafa solved this quickly and painless. They were really easy regarding the payment as well and contacted me a few more times to check if everything was okay after the surgery. I can absolutely recommend them.

This office is doing a fantastic job getting my mouth back in shape after a few years of neglect without a dentist. I had a tooth that had cracked and become infected underneath, and Dr. Vafa extracted the tooth and removed the infection before it became a larger problem. The surgery went very smoothly with little to no residual pain or swelling afterward. The entire office is very friendly and very thorough- they will never let you forget your appointment. When it’s time to replace the extracted tooth with a “whole implant,” they have a special that will make it more affordable than a lot of other places. I think my teeth and gums have found a good home!

I LOVE DR. VAFA! Simply kind and caring like all the other reviewers are saying. I was skeptical ( I am just a skeptical person in general) and boy was I wrong. He made me feel calm, his staff was great. The office is beautiful and brand new. I had a wonderful experience and I am now getting my top and bottom teeth done in veneers. I am super excited!!!!!! He also has a office in Beverly Hills which is close to where I live. I will be sending my whole family here!

Hands down the best dentist. I ever created a Yelp account specifically so that I can spread the word. I have looked everywhere for a dentist that I could trust. After many years of going from dentist to the next, I am here to stay. My kids all come here and we are happy every time. Dr. Vafa is one of a kind, genuine and caring. I even just got a all my teeth done with veneers and my smile never has looked better. My confidence is off the roof, my husband can’t stop saying how beautiful I am. Best dentist ever!

I can honestly say that Dr Vafa and the team at WeHo Holistic Dental care is hands down the best. I really hate going to the dentist especially for cleanings. I’ve always had terrible experiences and left with pounding migraines. I just stopped going so I didn’t have to deal with it. Because of some dental pain I wanted to hustle to see someone and I honestly lucked out with choosing Dr Vafa. They honestly are the absolute best. They are so good that I am sadly moving across the country, but I made sure to move up my appointment date to get a cleaning and see the team before I left!! I think they were a little busy so I had to wait maybe like 10 minutes extra in the chair and so many people came to just chat with me and get to know me. We were all cracking jokes and it really put me at ease. My hygienist was unbelievable – so nice and gentle as she cleaned, but did an amazing job. And the Dr himself was so helpful. I’m obnoxious and ask so many questions and I really feel like he gave me sound advice for everything – not pushing me into any products or whatever, just good advice into good dental hygiene. Really I never write reviews, but they are just genuine people who are all so knowledgeable and know that no one enjoys the dentist, so they try to make it the best they can for you! I definitely recommend coming here for your dental needs. Also my hygienist I basically want to become best friends with. I nearly cried when I was saying goodbye. I hugged her… that’s definitely weird, but she seriously changed my outlook on getting cleanings!

I was referred to this office by a friend. They were so very kind to fit me in when I explained that I had a broken tooth, and I am very happy and even impressed with the quality of care, the expertise and professionalism of all the staff and of the dentist, herself. They have the top technology as well, and all in a clean and happy environment.

I was referred by a friend of mine and needed a new dentist immediately. Decided to visit Dr. Vafa and was not disappointed. The office is very clean and everyone who works there was especially friendly. From the very minute I stepped in I was welcome by the front desk reception. I didn’t wait too long in the reception area ,which is good because my dentist before hand would make me wait over 30 minutes! Dr. Vafa was very polite and made me feel relaxed since I believe is very important when treating patients. I enjoy when dentists treat their patients with respect and Dr. Vafa did that. He is the ideal dentist for someone like me and I recommend everyone schedule their next appointment with him! I usually don’t like going to the dentist but after visiting this office, I wouldn’t mind scheduling another check-up.

Everyone I have encountered at this dental office is totally top notch. I had a cleaning and exam and it was the best cleaning experience I have ever had. The dentist is very nice and personable and the front office staff is professional, polite and super easy to deal with. I would recommend this office to anyone.

This office was extremely quick, easy, and thorough! I was taken back at the exact time of my appointment and immediately began x-rays and cleaning. The doctor pointed out some potential problem areas, educated me on how to treat them, and scheduled a follow-up. Rather than immediately resorting to fillings, the problems spots will be re-observed in six months. Highly recommended. Positive experience overall and I didn’t go home with achy teeth from a rough cleaning/scraping you’ll get from other dentists. As far as the “holistic” part goes, I didn’t notice any difference from my average trip to the dentist.

I recently cracked a tooth and had to find a dentist. I chose wisely, as Dr. Vafa, Dr. Shapiro and the entIre staff of West Hollywood Holistic and Cosmetic Dental are getting my teeth and gums back I in order after long neglect. Turns out therE was a large infected mass under the tooth due to food  falling tHrough the crack. Dr. Vafa extracted the tooth and removed all traces of infection before tHat became a much bigger problem. The surgery weNt smoothly with hardly any subsequent pain or swelling. I have to give it several months before I can get an implant to replace the lost tooth, but I will be returning here to get it because they offer a good deal on a “whole implant” procedure. The dental hygienists and office staff are all very friendly and supportive, and the office  never lets you forget your appointment  with timely reminders. With all their help, my mouth is on the mend

Dr. Bruce Vafa has been my dentist and I have researched them all.  I love  this man and his work.  My daughter will not allow anyone to touch her other than him.  He is the quintessential dentist.  His ability to be empathetic, compassionate and a brilliant craftsman, artist and doctor ‍ is astonishing.  He has been practicing for over 25 years and has a chair side manner that is unparalleled.  His ability to take care of my daughter, family, friends and clients is nothing short of miraculous.  He checks in all the time to make sure the procedures are seamless, painless and comfortable.  I can recommend this man without pause,  he is the only dentist I would go to!!! This is the diamond  of the dental business of dentistry.  They even filmed , The Hangover, scenes of the dentist office with Bradley Cooper at his office.  You owe it to yourself to have the best dentist and teeth!  You only have one set and when I speak to people who are aging and ask them their one regret, mostly, I get, I wish I took better care of my teeth.  I just could not stand the pain at the dentist!!! This gentleman is a genius at taking care of his patients.  Hence, the name, Smile angels

Dr. Vafa was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and caring.  I felt very comfortable and confident with him unlike any other dentist!  He truly wanted the best for me and helped any way he could! The staff was also very friendly and accommodating, and made sure all the clients were taken care of.  Definitely recommend- you won’t regret it!!

I had a wonderful dental experience here. My friend told me about Dr. Vafa and I am glad i came to see him for my cavity; he is extremely kind, gentle, professional  and meticulous with his work. Parking is easy which is always a plus in LA. Dr. Vafa and his staff are very welcoming with proper values, ethics, efficiency and quality of care for the patient.  I felt comfortable and at ease when normally I would be very nervous. Definitely recommend paying a visit if ur in need of a good dentist.

OK…so…one drunken night in college (many years ago) I was taking a shot straight out of a bottle of vodka. My best friend was dancing next to me, flailing her arms and the next thing I knew her arm hit the bottle and I ended up with a chipped tooth. I had it bonded the next day and thought little of it until I caught a glimpse of my tooth recently up close and realized the bonding had completely worn down. I came straight to Yelp to see who could fix it and this was the closest place. They were about to close, but after answering some questions they said it would be alright to come in that same day. About an hour and a half later, my chip was gone once again! Dr. Vafa has a nice sense of humor and works to make you feel at ease, the staff is friendly, the environment is clean and bright. I’m glad this was the closest place to me – I’ll likely be going to them for my general dentistry needs from now on as well.

I can’t express how thankful I am for Dr. Vafa. I have been deferring my dental visit for the last 15 months. Last Sunday the excruciating pain hit me and nothing could ease the pain. I called Dr. Vafa and he came into the office on a Sunday when they’re normally closed, took care of my 3 cavities and gave me a cleaning. His office is large, clean, and very professional. Thank you Dr. Vafa!!! You’re the best!

This is the best dental office I’ve been to in along time for one specific reason, customer service. After speaking to the receptionist for a minute I already felt like we had real rapport and like I could trust them. When I arrived everything was pleasant, personable, and fast.

Dr. Bruce Vafa is a fantastic dentist, and leads a team that provides the very best dental care I have seen (or heard of) in Los Angeles. I’ve gone to a few different dentists over the last few years, but was never thrilled with the overall experience and treatment quality I received. That completely changed when I went to Dr. Vafa’s dental practice – a pleasant and knowledgeable Front Desk staff that sends me reminders about my appointments and works with my schedule, to the friendly dental assistants that help me feel at ease and are super efficient, to Dr. Vafa – the best dentist I’ve ever been to. Dr. Vafa is friendly, gentle, meticulous and a bit of a perfectionist, making a visit to the dentist as enjoyable as it can be. I am grateful for Dr. Vafa for taking such good care of my teeth and overall oral health, and I absolutely recommend his services. I no longer have to worry about finding great dental care, and it’s because I trust the service provided by Dr. Vafa and his team – the BEST dentist in California! (I would honestly give a six-star rating if possible, but 5 will have to do!)

I am baffled by this office and this amazing work of Dr. Vafa who has changed my life completely! This is NO exaggeration. I grew up with the worst teeth ever thanks to my father’s passed on genetics, I am BRITISH. On top of the ugliness they were yellow like a banana. When I came to see Dr. Vafa I did not know what to expect, I was very nervous. The moment he introduced himself, I knew this was the beginning of my life change. I never felt good about myself, I was nervous, insecure around girls. I am a good looking man but with my teeth, I had no lucks with chicks. I got a full set of beautiful veneers on my top and lower teeth. My teeth are like a Hollywood celebrity, I am confident, I feel like life is looking upwards, girls now come chase me…my smile is a killer I am telling you!!! I went from a guy who couldn’t get girls to a guy who has options. I am so beyond greatful and it was worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY of hardship I had to spend. You get what you pay for, now I know the true meaning of this sentence. If you have jacked up teeth like I did, change your life for the better and make the investment because you are WORTH IT.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Vafa and his team; they are simply the best! I’ve been to quite a few dentists over the last few years and I can say with utmost confidence that I have never trusted a dentist as much as I trust Dr. Vafa. He treats all his patients like family and therefore extends the same care that he would to his own family. Due to quite a few negative experiences in the past, I’ve always felt like dentists are just out to get my money! But that has never been the case here, and I full heartedly trust every recommendation from Dr. Vafa. Not to mention how helpful and considerate the rest of his staff is as well! Normally, I’m actually a patient at his other location, but came to this one for an emergency (which by the way, his staff was super helpful in getting me in so last minute). My wait time was super short, and Dr. Vafa got me in and my pain taken care of so quickly that I was able to return to work with time to spare! I’ve never had a dental emergency taken care of so quickly and efficiently, so you can imagine my joy! The office itself is great too. It shares the plaza with a Whole Foods, so there is a good amount of free parking (which is very rare in the city these days)!! Plus, if you’re hungry but can’t eat due to just coming from the dentist, you can pick up a quick healthy smoothie or something! Everything inside is super clean, stylish, and welcoming, so I felt comfortable from the moment I stepped through the door. Thank you Dr. Vafa and team, never change!!!

Thank God he was open on Saturday! I had an emergency and they were able to fix it right away without appointment! In less then one hour! I have been living in Los Angeles for few years now and I Recommend the West Hollywood holistic & cosmetic!! Very nice staff , and the price was really fair!

Dr. Vafa is great. I’ve been going to him for over a year now. He makes me feel really comfortable and constantly checks in on me during procedures to ensure that I am comfortable. The staff is also really great and friendly. Explanation of insurance benefits and out of pocket costs are very transparent. HIGHLY Recommend

I can honestly say that Dr Vafa and the team at WeHo Holistic Dental care is hands down the best. I really hate going to the dentist especially for cleanings.

I am very thankful to know about this place. A friend of mine mentioned where they were location. I called and got a same day appointment. This is a great spot, I can’t wait to return. Huge thank you to the staff! Amazing services. Two thumbs up! Michael

Dr. Lafa saved me on a weekend from an awfully painful tooth in need of a root canal. Super nice staff too. Dr. Lafa was kind, professional, and took very good car of me throughout the whole process. His office was also too notch. Definitely a strong endorsement for him and his team.

I went to a dentist at this office for years, but unfortunately my dentist retired. I was having some tooth / root pain, and made an appointment on a Thursday for this new practice. There was a female Dr. there (typically my preference), and although she and her technicians did an ‘okay’ cleaning, I did not feel confident with her or her bed-side manner. Maybe she was having an ‘off day’. I decided to NOT have her do the procedure, and decided to look elsewhere. I randomly looked her up to see if other people felt the same way, and irnonically saw beautiful things written about the primary dentist (and owner) Dr. Vafa. So glad I made the decision to go back, he really was amazing. Dr. Vafa (who apparently splits his time between two offices) was so kind, gentle, and he literally saved me from a root canal. He has an amazing energy, is very professional, and has many years working apparently with various ages. I will definitely go back to him. Just know that he is not there every day, as he splits his time between offices.

Had a tooth pulled here last week. The staff is super friendly and very accommodating. The dentist who worked on me is very knowledgeable and took her time to explain all of my options and the various costs. I elected to go the cheap route and not do the bone graft. My surgery went smooth and required no stitches. She asked me many times if I was ok, made sure I didn’t feel any pain during the procedure, which I didn’t. There was no pain following the procedure and it’s healing up nicely.

Dr.Bruce Vafa and team are absolutely amazing and super friendly!!! Highly recommend anyone to go here. Especially if you’re seeking natural dentistry. I had a cavity filling done today and a root canal a few weeks ago. Dr.Vafa allowed me to see my xrays immediately AND I was able to see my teeth on screen with a camera to see which teeth had a cavity. Super cool! Very nurturing and personal experience. I felt my appointment time was valued. Also, if you’re someone seeking weekend appointments because of a busy work week, they accommodate this. Overall, this place is definitely 5 stars. Book appointment!! Don’t hesitate! You can treat yourself at Whole Foods afterwards. (Right next door to office.✨)

Today was my first appointment here, and my first dental exam in probably over 3 years. The team here is fantastic from the sweet woman at the front desk to the polisher at the end. I don’t know much about dentistry so I’ll spare you on trying to name these positions and the things that they were doing to my mouth. What I will say is I felt very comfortable from start to finish. My insurance covered the entire thing and I will be back next week for some fillings. The before and after of my teeth after my teeth cleaning was incredible. and I thought I had nice teeth- HA! not until these ladies took their tools to them. Seriously. They take photos of your teeth and blast them on a big screen  right in front you so there’s no getting away from the true state of your mouth. Mine definitely needs some love, and I feel confident in this place to get the job done. Highly recommended.

I had x-rays and my teeth cleaned.  The staff were professional, friendly and efficient. The cost was $0 with my Delta Dental.  They did everything they could to minimize any pain during the cleaning and did not spend the whole appointment trying to upsell me on services I don’t want or need (like veneers) as some dentists do.  I will definitely return.  I give them a solid recommendation.

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Vafa and his team. I needed an emergency visit to repair one of my veneers (done with another dentist in Chicago). Upon calling, his staff was so accommodating and professional. They got me in right away, despite their full schedule. Dr. Vafa took the BEST care of me, consulted and repaired my tooth with ease and efficiency. He is a very gentle and caring Dentist, every few minutes he would stop to see how I was feeling and if I was comfortable. Exceptional bed side manners. He is meticulous and nearly a perfectionist. He didn’t cut any corners or rush me out of the office; he ensured I was happy and received the treatment I needed. I am grateful to have found this office and Dr. Vafa, whom will now be my new dentist in LA. I highly recommend his practice, team and artistry over many other dentists I have tried in the past. Thank you very much for all you did for me today.

There aren’t enough words to explain how amazing the entire team here is. I broke a tooth and they took me in same day, were so kind, thorough and clear about the process and my options. Kept me comfortable and pain free the entire time. I cant thank them enough!!! If you’re looking for a new dentist, you couldn’t find one better.
