I transferred to this dental office 2 years ago when my old dentist retired, and so far I've been pretty happy with their services. Office staff is amazing, their dental technicians are super friendly and always make sure my cleanings are pain free. Saturday appointments work great for my work schedule too..I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about this place. They call me every time I'm due for a follow-up, and I truly appreciate their care.

The receptionist was very friendly. The service exceeded my expectations. I was impressed with the care I received from Dr Noushin Adnami, who not only was an expert but also a very cheerful and very pleasant to interact. I highly recommend this office to everyone.

I have always been terrified of the dentist, due to a bad experience I had many many years ago and haven't been back since. Just thinking about the dentist gave me an anxiety attack. After suffering from a bad tooth ache i had no choice but to go. Thankfully a friend recommended Village Dental to me, and I was so very pleased. The staff members were so welcoming and gentle. I felt so comfortable because they walked me through every step & were so patient with me even though I was scared. I live in Rialto CA so it is a long commute but definitely worth it. Village Dental is mine and my family's permeant dentist. Thank you Village Dental ! EXCELLENT SERVICE !

Going to this place was awesome! Everyone in the office was so kind and informative and while other dentist office I've been in are kind of scary, this place had such a non stressful, cool ambiance. I am young, but they did not treat me as such. I felt that they really listened to me and treated me with respect. I just went in for a consultation, but I look forward to going back. Great first impression!

Dr. Melanie is AMAZING!!! She took such great care of me and my teeth. Let me say this, "I'm scared of any and every needle!" I didn't even feel the shot! Dr. Melanie does amazing work and she'll definitely fix whatever's going on in your mouth. I haven't been to the dentist in about a year and I'm glad I'm back. I used to come to Wilshire Dental 10 years ago with Dr. Rotjman and followed him to village dental in Westwood, but found my way back here in Santa Monica. Doreen is also AMAZING! I've known Doreen forever, she's been taking care of me and my billing needs since I was a minor coming in with my Mom to see with Dr. Rotjman. I come to Wilshire Dental knowing everybody here is going to take great care of me and my teeth!
