PATIENT REVIEWS

I’m not the typical type who writes reviews but after the service k received i pretty much felt the need for everyone to know. I had gone to another dentist and was told I had a lot of work they needed to be done even though I have never had a cavity. my coworker brenda come here and told me that I have to see drg so I did. I came in and received a free second opinion and was told I didn’t have any cavities but just simply stains from coffee. he showed me the stains on a screen so I can see the areas to watch and recommends an electric toothbrush. after 2 months most of the stain is gone and feel very happy. came in to get invisalign done before my wedding. super exited!

Dr. Guillen is great. He’s calm, takes his time, and knows what he’s doing. He shows you all the steps of the process so you understand why certain treatments are required.My history has been just do and never explained! I was concerned about getting a mouth guard and he offered me a full refund if it didn’t help with my symptoms. It was mostly covered by my insurance and the price wasn’t astronomical (I’ve been quoted crazy prices at other offices). I needed some adjustments on it and he got me in right away and worked with me until the fit was perfect and didn’t charge me. The woman at the desk Maria is also the most professional and caring administrative assistant I’ve ever encountered at a doctor’s office. All of my UCLA nursing staff comes here and i can see why!

Came in after a quick stop at whole foods to have a checkup. heard great things from my law firm so I had to check it out and see what the hype was all about. they said dr g was very kind gentle and did great cosmetic work. after having a filling replaced every three months by my previous Beverly Hills dentist I though I’d give it a go and see what drg could do. had the filling done and looks wonderful and feels great. hardly felt the numbing and wasn’t over treatment planned for hence scary work. he took records with a neat intra oral camera and digital X-rays. the office staff were very courteous and prompt. I didn’t have to wait a single minute to get seated. I would highly recommend drg to absolutely anyone. the validated Parkin was awesome. who validates parking these days:) dr g

I am a 3rd generation patient at this office. Dr. G makes going to the dentist a breeze! There is nothing negative I could say about the quality of his work, and the attention he gives to each of his clients. Dr. G and his staff go above and beyond to make your experience while in the chair, a comfortable and painless one. They even provide you with headphones (noise cancelling!) and a tablet, where you can pick and listen to your music of choice while having work done. For cleaning, Yvonne is the BEST. I’ve been seeing her for the last 20+ years. She is like family. For the rest of the staff, Maria at the front desk, is the face of the office. Always a smile and warm greeting. She is so accommodating and such a pleasure to speak with. If anyone is in need of an amazing all around DDS, look no further!

After a horrible ordeal with a bad tooth on vacation in Hawaii, Dr, Guillen and his amazing staff, got me in immediately after returning home. And that was before I was even a patient of his. A fellow colleague at Anderson let me know about Dr Guillen. He is now my dentist, and I couldn’t be happier. He is kind and extremely informative. I was immediately comfortable with him. I would give them 10 starts if I could. The staff is equally impressive. Highly recommended

I consider my teeth to be very sensitive besides very personal. Dr Guillen came highly recommended but I was still a bit weary. That came to rest very quickly, he was very professional and his bedside manner was excellent. I could tell that he takes great pride in his work and enjoys it, which makes him very good at it. I have sat in enough dental chairs to know that most dentist either treat you like a number or simply want to squeeze the cash out of you. That was not the case, I felt that all my dental options were given without any hard sales tactics. The staff was friendly and the office was clean and cozy. The wait was minimal and the price for my work was very fair

Excellent business; very friendly atmosphere and Dr. G is a very skilled dentist!  I have been a patient here since the 70s when it was Dr. Paul B and Dr. Paul C. Beckstead.  Yvonne is my hygienist and has been since she graduated dental school and is the very best, in my opinion!  I have referred several people to this office and they are very happy with them, as well.  They are one of the few dental offices that is open on Saturdays.  Maria and Nancy are a great compliment and two of the nicest people I’ve ever dealt with!

We need a 6 star option for places like this. Dr.Guillen and his staff treat you like family. The process is fast and easy but not rushed. Dr.G has a great personality but more importantly, his skills as a dentist are second to none. He loves what he does and does an amazing job at it. I was highly impressed at how state-of-the-art the technology was; Dr.G makes sure the patient is provided with the best possible treatment and care. I first went in for a cavity and he used a new device on me that allowed the removal of the cavity with no pain nor injection (sounds too good to be true I know). They also use an ultrasonic scaler for teeth cleaning which leaves your teeth and gums incredibly clean without the soreness that comes with hand tools. While Dr.G was in there he also fixed a crooked filling for me–I didn’t realize it was a problem until I closed my mouth and realized how much better my bite and more relaxed my mouth became. All those years of “I hate the dentist” will be put to rest on your first visit, I promise

If you are looking for a family friendly dentist then check out Dr. Guillen. Everyone in the office is super professional yet at the same time makes you feel right at home!!! I have been a patient here for many, many years because they pay particular attention to your needs and are extra careful with your smile. My entire family gets their dental hygiene needs taken care of by Westwood Glamorous Smiles and we are extremely happy with their services

I’m skeptical whenever I see a business with 4.5 or 5 stars, but after coming to Westwood Glamorous Smiles, I can put my doubts to rest. Dr. Guillen and the rest of the staff are simply amazing, and if you don’t already have a dentist, he is your guy! It’s safe to say that this is the best experience I’ve ever had at a dentistry. I called and got a same-day appointment, which was pretty lucky considering they are smaller practice, but I think that’s what makes them so great. You get the family-owned vibe right when you step in (and the place dates back to 1945, so there’s that), and everyone is just so darn friendly and likable. Normally teeth cleaning isn’t very fun, but I want to give a shout-out to the hygienist, Yvonne, who made the procedure feel more like a enjoyable conversation than anything. She will get on you for not brushing or flossing though, and will not hesitate to give you tips on doing them the right way. Same goes for Dr. Guillen, who is lighthearted and immediately makes you feel comfortable. Bottom line is the staff is extremely professional, and they will make sure your visit is quick, easy, and painless. And if you’re a UCLA student like me, you get an extra 20% off your trip, so even more reason to drop in. I will definitely be back!

I can’t even begin to explain how wonderful everyone here is. Dr.G makes me feel like I’m hanging out, not having a dental procedure. I had not been to the dentist in over 4 years (gasp!) and he immediately reassured me that it would all be fine. His first priority is making you as comfortable as possible and truly caters to you, not just a typical patient in a box. He always remembers what works best and easily for me. He had his work cut out for him with me haha but he made everything so simple, easy, and painless. Yes, painless! He’s the man. My entire family sees him as well and I would immediately send anyone I know over to him because he is that great. In short, he provides the quality of care, expertise, and compassion you’d dream for a dentist to have. And Yvonne, Maria and Nancy are all just as wonderful and nice!

I can’t thank Dr,Guillen and his staff for getting me in on an emergency basis to have my crown that came of recemented and allowing to make my cruise that left later that day. Got me in within the hour despite his busy schedule and for me out promptly. Didn’t even charge me for the services. I can with confidence tell you he is the very best. Caring compassionate and well educated. A most for those seeking a great dentist. Enjoy and see for yourself

My wife’s crown broke at 8pm on a Friday eve and was in Dr. Guillen’s office at 9am the next day. It is so rare these days to receive that kind of service especially considering that while I am a patient of his, my wife is not.  That is service! We are free to enjoy a pain free day because of it. We took our two year old with us and it was a bonus to be able to have him run around the office while my wife’s procedure was done.  I am positive my son will not be afraid of the dentist’s office because of Yvonne, Maria, and Nancy. This is family dentistry and I am glad to say that I am a patient. Thank you all so much for being there in a pinch and with smiles on your faces. I recommend this practice to anyone in the area and even for those who might need to commute a bit further in exchange for a really friendly and professional office. Best, Robert, Paige and Evan Bell

Like many have mentioned, I too have had nightmare experiences at previous dental offices. These nightmares have changed since coming to Dr. Guillen’s office! The entire experience is amazing! From the moment you walk in you are greeted by Maria who is the friendliest office manager! Dr. Guillen also has a special way of having someone with extreme nervousness feel more relaxed and ready to complete a procedure. I also truly appreciate Dr. Guillen’s attention to detail. He truly shows he cares about his patients. Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic experience with dr Omar Guillen.  The staff is super friendly and nice. They are very experienced and did a great job cleaning my teeth and getting X-rays. They identified and clearly explained my issues and got me in right away to get my cavities fixed.  Dr G is a very likable and friendly dentist.  He had great stories to tell and did so with a charismatic charm.  He was using the latest in technology and instruments and quickly and easily fixed my issues. The office has the ability to allow you to listen to spotify/pandora radio or watch movies to help get you relaxed.  It’s a cozy little office that is clean and well kept.  Very pleased with the entire experience and would highly recommend them to anyone in the area

The dentist could be a very scary place I must say… I have been looking for a good dentist for years now and I can not have stumbled upon a better one. Dr.  Omar Guillan Was the absolute best! I scheduled a cleaning just to try this place out and test my comfort level… I must say I was very impressed. The front receptionist processed me quite quickly and was not waiting for long. When Dr. Guillan met with me for my cleaning he was very gentle and fast. My nerves were calm.. I also got to listen to music of my choice to keep me from hearing the drills and also so I can lose focus on any type of pain. His technique is fabulous and I am looking forward to a whitening with him. I def recommend glamorous smiles to everyone

Early June 15′, I went in to remove three of my wisdom teeth.  Dr. Omar Guillen and his staff at Westwood Glamorous Smiles are amazing.  From my initial consultation to post-surgery recovery, they were very supportive and kind.  Dr. G was very informative, under his care, he was able to ease my anxiety regarding the procedure.  I was awake during the extraction and I wouldn’t do it any other way if I had the chance because it was quick and painless, simply amazing work for such a procedure.  I also had a cleaning and post-surgery check up and the dental hygienists present performed great.  Thankful to have been referred to Dr. Guillen and his team at Westwood Glamorous Smiles.  Definitely will be my long-term dentist in the greater Los Angeles region and I would definitely recommend any yelp readers to this dental practice

I rarely write reviews, but after all the bad experiences i’ve been to , i have to let people know that you have a great little office close to UCLA across the street from whole foods. Very honest, pain free, prompt and great bedside manner. Had a broken tooth and several other locations wanted to take it out, but Dr. G saved it. 3 months later i came back in for a cleaning without any issues whatsoever. Thanks Dr. G, i wish i had found you before!

My experience with Dr Guillen was excellent.Dr.G took the time to explain the pros and cons and why he thought I’d be a perfect candidate for veneers. My upper teeth had gaps and I hated to smile or take pics because I hated the way I looked. I love the way the veneers look when I smile they turned out perfect and I’ve had so many compliments and it’s really given me confidence in ways I didn’t realize before the change. I’d definitely recommend Dr.Guillen to anyone looking too change their smile, can’t say enough about Dr.G and the staff. They did a great job ! I can’t say thank you enough..

Dr. G saved me! I had an impacted tooth during the covid pandemic that needed immediate removal. I called so many different offices but Dr. G was the only one that called me back right away. I was super scared because I’ve never gotten a tooth removed before, but Dr. G was super patient and explained the whole process. The nurse Nancy was also very nice and assured me that I was in good hands. The whole process was seamless and Dr. G followed up with me right away to make sure my recovery was going smoothly. I am so grateful for this team and Dr. G for making what could have been a very stressful experience much easier! I would recommend this team to anyone! 10/10

I find myself always bragging about my dentist. I’m not sure if that is a bad thing or good thing LOL. Not that I am always at the dentist office but I do regular check ups. And I have had serious work done there before…like root canal. This dentist office has such a great pleasant environment and it doesn’t smell like a raunchy dentist office. I have had minty dentist in my time and this is for sure the best dentists office I have been to. Their work explains it all, they keep my pearly whites clean and in top shape. Here is a quick note that when the doctor is not in the office he’s usually at a dentist conference learning about new dentistry. Furthermore, I fell asleep on a root canal so they get five stars for me and my family of 4 will continue telling people about my dentist

My dentist is better than yours! Just kidding, but seriously he probably is. Dr. G is my guy! When I made my 7 am appointment (yes, they are open at 7am and on Saturdays), how convenient, I arrived to a very bright, updated office with its state of the art equipment and music system tuned to your favorite music while getting your mind off the work being done. He provided consultation based on what I wanted, and what he knew I needed. Then we proceeded with the pain and discomfort free visit from there. He made some small recommendations that no dentist to date had ever made.  Well, that’s how good he is!  Maria who manages the front desk and billing is great she will let you know up front if you will have any out of pocket expenses.  Yvonne the hygienist does an awesome job with the cleaning and even gives you tips on cleaning & flossing your teeth the proper way. Go see the office, go see Dr. G, the entire staff is friendly, so you probably can’t go wrong with any of the staff. There is a reason why this office has 5 stars, go see for yourself!

I just moved to Bel Air and was in desperate need of a well-rounded, modern dental experience. I’m so glad I came my colleague at Equinox referred me. From the moment I walked in the door, I was promptly greeted and checked in, the office is very clean and bright. My exam was thorough, the cleaning painless, the technology top notch! I’ve never seen my dentition one a touch screen tv that i can manipulate. They offer in office whitening, and so much more …I’m actually looking forward to continuing my dental goals with this team!

I don’t usually write reviews, but I just HAVE TO share my awesome experience at the Glamorous Smile. First of all, I messaged the dentist on Yelp that I had a toothache and need to make an appointment asap, and they call me back at once. It was really nice. The building was so beautiful and all stuff were so sweet. I had some cavities, and Dr. G numbed my tooth without a shot, which was really cool. My filling was beautifully done, too. He made sure if was doing okay every second, so it didn’t hurt at all. I just cannot appreciate Dr. G more. Thank you so much

I broke my tooth on Friday. By that afternoon I was able to get an emergency appointment with DR. G. His office is in the middle of everything basically in the middle of Westwood Village.  I found parking right away opting to park across the street in the parking garage.  The front of the office looks kind of like it has a 1920’s high-class office feel to it wood doors with glass on top and etched lettering.  As you enter you are engulfed in serenity. You are immediately greeted.  The receptionist was very nice and struck up a conversation but most importantly put me in front of the Doc within a few minutes of my arrival.   The guy is like a walking mountain probably over 6 foot tall but most impressive was his brain.  He immediately got me into x-ray and while he waited for them had his assistant give me a light cleaning while we waited.  As soon as they came back he explained what probably happened according to what he saw and the x-rays.   He explained everything very expertly and I immediately knew I was with someone who knew his stuff.  He gave me a price and asked me if I would like to proceed. I agreed and not too long later he was able to save the tooth and even strengthen it.   Thank you Doc!  If you are looking for Dental expert that will make you feel comfortable and explain the pros and cons of the work to be performed even under pressure this is your guy. Client for life!

Came in for a checkup and cleaning. was extremely convenient to my office at ucla. was about a block away. after reading the reviews I had to come I to see if this was what it was cracked up to be. well it definitely was. the front desk lady was very nice the hygienist extremely intelligent as the doctor was too. they’ve apparently been here since the 40’s. the building is old as much of Westwood is bit. you come in and it has that old fashioned grandma loving room feeling. you don’t feel like your at a dental office at all. I had a broken front filling from a rugby tournament that had been tried to be fixed but everyone kept telling me i needed veeners. well dr Guillen just did it form me and I can’t even see it! it simply fantastic! I typically don’t write reviews but I had to for this! great place that wants a really honest dentist that’s not out to rip you off. enjoy

Was recommended by one of my best friends and was extremely happy. great new dental equipment ,kind chairside manner and excellent staffing. I waited a total of 30 seconds! which is incredible! I had a broken filling that needed to be taken care of but just had procrastinated as everyone typically does. I didn’t feel the anesthetic at all. he has a cool machine that gently numbs your tooth without feeling a thing! truly amazing! a must come for those seeking a dentist

As a coffee lover, Dr. Guillen is a godsend. He got rid of my coffee stains! (thank goodness I’m not a wino). Dr. Guillen and his staff are amazing! My friend went to see Dr. Guillen and recommended him highly. I was able to book an appointment quickly and they are so welcoming. From the moment you walk in the door, to the moment you leave, you feel taken care of. Sometimes, hygienists just force the x-rays and its uncomfortable, This experience was the opposite of that. Dr. Guillen is very thorough and explains what the issues are on the x-rays and makes you feel comfortable while in the chair. He is very skillful and honest about what you need or don’t need and I really appreciate that (especially after a bad experience where the dentist just kept doing procedures and I ended up leaving with a $1,100 bill). I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome dentist and painless experience. Bonus points for being a dentist who sincerely cares about his patients and their dental health

Dr. Guillen and his staff are fantastic!!! I have had invasalign for about a year and my teeth are looking better than ever. My young daughter has had some dental work done and she honestly looks forward to going to the dentist every time. My husband has also had some work done, and boy, after 10+ of years of not visiting the dentist because of prior bad experiences, he was very pleased on the devoted attention and care they provided. If you are looking for a family friendly dental office that makes you feel comfortable and is particularly careful with your smile, then this is really great place. You can even rock out to your favorite tunes while you get your teeth cleaned!!

I have to say Dr. Guillen is one of the best Dentist I have seen. I work in the area and was referred by my wife to go and see Dr. Guillen. I was having pain in my mouth so I contacted his office and the Office manager was very friendly and set me up for an appointment at my convenience. After my consultation the Dr. explained my treatment and what I needed to do to help restore my teeth to a better health. I have been to his office 4 times since my initial visit and I thank them for what they did to improve my oral health. My wife has had invisalign and her teeth look great, I am now looking forward to getting invisalign done as well. I would recommend Dr. Guillen to any one who is looking for a good dentist who cares about your oral health

I’ve been extremely satisfied with all my visits. Dr. Guillen and his staff are super friendly and accommodative. Dr. Guillen is amazing at what he does and he always makes sure that you’re as comfortable as possible. I’ve never been to a dentist office with so many state of the art gadgets that really go a long way in making all of my procedures efficient and painless. He embraces technology in a way that I’ve never experienced before with previous dentists. His entire staff makes sure that your problems are taken care of with the quality of care that they deserve. A couple months ago I cracked one of my fillings and I was leaving for vacation overseas two days later. Panicking, I called the office and they were able to book me immediately the following morning. Dr. Guillen performed a quick-fix operation to fix my filling so that I could go on my vacation worry-free and scheduled a follow up visit when I returned. They also give 20% discount to UCLA students! I’ve recommended many of my friends to them already!

Best dentist EVER! I was a dental phobe but no more. They even did my first root canal.
Caring and compassionate paired with outstanding competency. I’ve been using Dr. Guillen for over 4 years and won’t go anywhere else. Hygenist is also excellent. She has mapped my sensitive spots and is careful when cleaning. I go twice a year and my oral health has never been better. I no longer have a fear of the dentist. Thanks Westwood Village Smiles!

I absolutely love Dr Guillen and his staff. I have seen them for years, and recently needed a revision of an old crown from a prior dentist. I was nervous, as I had some uncomfortable experience with dental care as a child, but the procedure was completely painless and they made sure I was completely comfortable the whole time!  Dr. Guillen explains everything, uses state of the art anesthesia, and does AMAZING work!!! His staff is always so kind and professional! This is a wonderful office!
