For years, Beth was my hygienist and a total turning point -- she made cleanings feel calm and manageable instead of stressful. When she left, I was genuinely worried. Lourdes was the first hygienist I saw afterward, and I felt that same immediate sense of relief. At different visits, I saw other hygienists here, and they were all wonderful -- truly, everyone in this office is great. But when I was able to book with Lourdes again, I realized there's just something especially gentle and thoughtful about her that really stands out and reminds me of the care I had with Beth. She anticipates discomfort instead of just reacting to it -- offering chapstick when my lips felt dry, checking in and offering water when my mouth felt dry. These small, caring details make a huge difference when you're anxious in the dental chair. I'm so grateful for her care and highly recommend Lourdes to anyone who feels nervous about dental cleanings.

    I had a very disappointing experience at Healthy Smiles Dental in Sherman Oaks and would strongly…read moreadvise others to proceed with caution. Before my appointment, no one reviewed or explained the charges for my deep cleaning. I have dual PPO insurance, and I know deep cleanings are covered, yet I was still charged a significant out-of-pocket amount. I was never informed that a laser would be used, nor that it would be an additional charge per quadrant. I assumed it was part of the standard procedure. This was never discussed or consented to prior to treatment. Even more concerning, my son and I were separated and taken to different rooms, and they proceeded to do multiple fillings on my son without ever informing me how many were needed or asking for my consent. No one came to explain the treatment plan before starting, during my own procedure, or afterward. As a parent, this is completely unacceptable. At no point was I given a clear treatment plan or cost breakdown for either of us. Despite having dual insurance coverage, I was still charged $621 out of pocket. When I asked for an itemized receipt, I was told they could not provide one, which is a huge red flag. This office feels extremely money-driven, with poor communication and questionable consent practices. I truly regret not paying closer attention to the reviews before booking here. Transparency, consent, and trust are critical in healthcare--and this office failed on all three. Please avoid this place and protect yourself and your family.

    Exceptional Expertise & Life-Changing Results -- Thank You Dr. Okui and Team!…read more I was referred to Dr. Matthew Okui at Akemi Dental Specialists in Encino by my cosmetic dentist, Dr. Bernie Villadiego, for one of the most critical parts of my dental journey: replacing failed root canals in my two front teeth with implants. My situation was uniquely complex, and I wanted the best of the best. After extensive research, I chose to go with ceramic implants over traditional titanium--not only for health and lifestyle reasons, but also because they suited my specific needs. Ceramic implants require a high level of precision and experience, and very few periodontists offer them, let alone excel with them. Dr. Okui is one of those rare experts. From the first consultation, Dr. Okui's meticulous attention to detail and calm, confident approach gave me complete peace of mind. He approached my challenging case with the utmost care, treating it not just as a routine procedure, but as a personalized and highly technical medical and aesthetic solution. The result was a highly successful implant procedure with outcomes that exceeded my expectations. Not only is the function flawless, but the aesthetic result--when paired with the final restorations by Dr. Villadiego--is seamless. My smile feels whole again. His entire team was phenomenal--professional, kind, and attentive every step of the way. From scheduling to aftercare, they made everything smooth and stress-free. If you're facing a complex implant case or considering ceramic implants, Dr. Matthew Okui is the specialist you want in your corner. I'm beyond grateful for his skill, care, and the life-changing results he helped deliver.

I was surprised at how quickly I was able to be seen for an assessment of two issues I needed checked out. Upon arrival the office was clean and beautiful with efficient and friendly front desk people. Lorena soon took me back to a room where she took a couple of X-rays and pictures of the areas in question. She was kind, gentle and proficient with all of her tasks making the experience as pleasant as possible. When Dr Penhaskashi came in I was highly satisfied with his professional and superbly competent demeanor. It was immediately clear he's a man of great integrity. He seemed 100% focused on giving me his most skilled and honest opinion regardless of whether or not his clinic made money on me. He simply recommended I get re-checked in a year as he didn't see anything that needs to be addressed at this point, yet he was very generous in thoroughly analyzing my situation and patiently explaining his findings and thoughts on my issues. Wow, what a GREAT doctor!!! I would wholeheartedly recommend this practice to anyone looking for Periodontal services, even if it's just for some honest top notch advice.
