This Doctor is THE WORST!! I advise Everyone not to go see him. Not only because of his lack of experience and Pompous attitude; he made a hole in my sinus doing a sinus lift! Not only did he keep insisting that I had a cyst that needed to be removed, I had it checked out by the finest Ear, Nose &Throat Dr at Cedars who performed a surgery on inside my neck a year before There Was No Cyst. Dr. Borna did a surgery in his office and made a hole in my sinus. Everything that I ate and drank ran out through my nose. He did nothing to help me and would not acknowledge it. I saw The Head Of The American Dental Association and Numerous Surgeons for their advice. They All told me to take out any work that Dr. Borna did and start over. I finally went to the Finest Oral Surgeon in the world; Dr. S Shaun Daneshgar who had to fix the hole with a 4 hour surgery as an in-patient at Cedars Sinai Hospital. For your own sake and those of your loved ones, Never go to this Doctor!! He is the worst and should have his license revoked read more

I have been going to Dr Borna for several years now - he is the best. He is very conservative, meaning that he will advise on doing the least invasive work necessary to fix your problem. In dentistry, less is more. Other dentists I have been to have recommended crowns and other more elaborate fixes that Dr Borna said were unnecessary after I consulted him for a second opinion. Pricing is very fair and he has great skill in administering novocaine as well as filling cavities, creating and implementing crowns and implants, and other services. I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

Dr Borna quoted me a price and we agreed for a implant. He did the extraction and bone craft and when it came time to do the implant on my second visit, he tried to charge me more and he refused to keep our agreement and forced me to find another dentist to finish his job. read more

Took my mom in for a tooth implant. My dentist recommended us to see Farshid Borna because of his specialty. Not only was his price very competitive, but it was quality work. We drove from over an hour away just to come see Dr. Borna and his staff on three separate occasions. Each time was a breeze. We are now waiting for the tooth to heal. Over the course of her dental work, my mom has been to over a dozen dentists, periodontists and oral surgeons. What makes Mr. Borna stand out is that he is clear, fast and super friendly. No sugar coating, upselling or anything of that nature. 5/5 all the way. read more

read other reviews and see. He should not practice. He is rude and a bad dentist. He pulled my tooth and put a bad implant . I am still having problem, and he refuse my calls . read more

bad bad bad. stay away . no assistance. if under surgery, he answer calls . I called because of he pulled my teeth , and had a lot of pain. he said to call next week, and hanged up right away . He does not even deserve 1 star read more

Bad dentistry by far! So far 4 others said what a horrible implant you had! It doesn't look like an implant! It's crooked!!!

BEST Dentist and Periodontist I have ever visited. My son, age 7, had 2 cavities which required fillings. Dr. Borna and his ENTIRE staff made him so comfortable and patiently explained every process so that he was at ease. I had 2 crowns as well and I have to say it was, hands down, the most pleasant encounter I have ever had at a dental office. From the novocaine injection to the final rinse...very light touch, extremely thorough and informative. Dr. Borna is truly a professional and quite conservative when it comes to necessary procedures (you are not treated as a customer, ever). Only that which was necessary was performed and all the preventative measures were taken to preserve the health of our teeth. His Dental Hygienist also has a light touch and is wonderful with children! Mahnaz, the Office Manager, is the most informative and friendly front office staff I have ever encountered. She remembers my entire family, every time, explains complex insurance practices with ease, and relays information to the doctor in the most efficient and timely manner possible. Both my parents have had extensive dental work done with Dr. Borna as well, and it is a definitely a consensus, he is great! Thank you so very much! read more

I went to Dr. Borna for a dental implant. After taking x-rays he determined that a bone graft was needed and started with the gum surgery. I ended up having three separate bone graft surgeries done during a period of ten month for the same tooth because the first two bone grafts were still lose after the 3-4 month waiting period. The third bone graft seemed to be fine and therefore he installed the implant into it and I was asked to come back after a few month at which time he determined that the bone graft was still lose. That's when he told me that a dental implant won't work for me and offered to do a bridge instead or pay back half the money that he had collected in advance. This is after a year being without the front tooth and having gone through 3 gum surgeries. I went with the second option and went to a different dentist to get a second opinion. Their specialist determined through 3-D imaging that no bone graft was needed and the bone graft surgeries that I had gone through were unnecessary. He performed the dental implant successfully and without any problems. I don't recommend Dr. Borna for dental implants even though he claims to specialize in this field of work. read more

Dr. Borna and his staff are great - very professional, fairly priced, and knowledgeable. I broke my front two tooth in a basketball incident and I went through a long search for finding the right Dentist to take care my dental implants. What I loved about Dr. Borna is that he is very straight to the point - he is not there to schmooze you into his services. He will give you the details, his staff will give you the price, you get everything on paper - all you gotta do is set up the time and you're good to go. Dr. Borna is also really great at what he does. The types of procedures that I needed were very difficult and it was a 9 month process for me to complete the entire process. Throughout the course of those months, the professionalism from Dr. Borna and his staff was always a class act and they helped go through the entire process very smoothly. I highly recommend Dr. Borna, especially for dental implants. read more

I went to Doctor Borna for a check-up and cleaning . It was my 1st visit there. I showed the receptionist my insurance and things that are covered. I've spent there 55 minutes. Doctor and hygienist cleaned my teeth and did some x-rays. After I was billed I noticed they've charged my for cleaning twice claiming that it's a separate amount for lower / upper teeth. they have used a code that is for the whole mouth procedure as per dental board. anyway my insurance tried to explained it to them that's its a duplicate - they would have not listed. receptionist claimed that I didn't go for a cleaning for a long time and I had dirty teeth .. and that doctor had to perform extra work and I spend there 2h. which is obviously not true - I have a receipt from 8.57 and my appointment was for 8am .. I've reported them to dental board . Mr Borna is very nice but I would never ever go there again because of the receptionist. would totally not recommend read more

Dr. Borna is not only an overall excellent dentist, he is a perfectionist. (and he's a nice guy too) Also, pain management is very important to him. He constantly monitors if you have any pain throughout any treatment. His staff is helpful and professional. I wasted money and time with several other dentists. Finding a trustworthy dentist is a big challenge and I highly recommend Dr. Borna. read more

I found Dr. Borna through a referral from a colleague, when I needed to get an extraction and implant. He consulted me for free, let me know the procedure and costs (relatively inexpensive), and then scheduled me to come in that evening (on a Friday), to have the tooth removed because I was in so much pain. The extraction took less than an hour, and although there was pain afterwards and swelling, the healing process so far has been a breeze. Going to a previous dentist, I knew I also needed a root canal (never go 5 years without seeing a dentist!), and upon letting him know about that situation, he x-rayed me on the spot at no cost, and again explained options, and submitted to my insurance right away for pre-approval (end of the year). He's been very straight forward, positive, and helpful throughout this dental work, and I feel very comfortable in his hands -- I highly recommend him. I write this because I always read reviews to aid in my choices, and was so happy to find him. read more

I have never encountered such lack of professionalism in my entire life. Two weeks ago at my consultation I was told that his next available appointment would be in two weeks. Because I didn't want to have to wait another two weeks for my next appointment, I scheduled two appointments back to back. One on Monday and one on Tuesday. This morning I called to see if Dr. Borna had another appointment available sometime this week so I can reschedule Tuesday's appointment (due to pain). In my voicemail I specified that if no other early appointments were available that I would like to keep my appointment because I wouldn't want to wait another two weeks to be seen. I received a missed call from Dr. Borna but no voicemail and did not to speak to him personally. I left two sick children at home and made my way to his office in pain to make my appointment. When I arrived, he told me that he went ahead and canceled my appointment and asked his staff not to show up AND that his next available appointment was in three weeks. He canceled my appointment without speaking to me and WITHOUT LEAVING ME ANY NOTICE OF IT. When I asked if he could repair something that he improperly fixed the day before he told me that I could wait an hour to be seen because he had an "emergency patient" or I could just come back at that appointment in three weeks. If he had a patient, than surely he hadn't asked his staff not to come. As I expressed that what he had done wasn't right and was a waste of my time, he turned around and walked away. If you're looking for a profession dentist who does quality work STAY AWAY!! read more

My family and I had heard Dr. Borna advertisement a lot on the 670 Persian Radio , we went to his office to have a implants put in, but days after our implants were placed mines and my wifes and daughters tooth still hurt and continued hurting for weeks afterwards on the site where the implants were placed. My wife, Daughter and myself went back to Dr. Borna and told him our problem with the pains and all he told me was that this was all he could do. He left me and my family in pain instead of a satisfied patient. I do not recommend to you use this dentist at all. read more

I've been going to Dr. Farshid Borna for a while now, and I couldn't be happier. Farshid is brilliant, fast, and efficient. His assistant is also a sweet heart and together they're a great team. They always comfort me and make sure I never feel any pain. Amazing staff and dentist. Thank you!!! read more

He is the Best doctor I ever had . No pain , nice price , and wonderful staff . I have to give him 10 star , I wish I could .

Today I underwent my second gum grafting surgery with Dr. Borna. He's also done other work including bone grafting (I've been a patient of his partner, Harvey Freed for over a decade). I give him the highest rating because he is a skilled surgeon with excellent results in my mouth so far, his hands are gentle as well as strong, he has a calming and supportive chairside manner and he is a good communicator who leaves no question unanswered. Although I don't know him outside of our dentist/patient relationship I suspect he's also a wonderful human being beyond his practice. read more

Dr.Borna was extremely professional and knowledgeable. My case was complicated and he worked very hard and took extra time to make sure he did a perfect job. In addition, his office staff and assistant are so kind and welcoming. I highly recommend Dr. Borna. read more

I'm going to continue and get all my teeth fixed by him. He is so nice and very caring dr. You can be relax and let him do his job. It was my best experience and suggest you to get your appointment soon. read more

Dr. Borna has been my dentist for at least 10 years. He is very caring and professional. He did 4 implants for me, at reasonable cost and no complications. He has great, friendly staff and gives you a written plan of work to be done with the cost of each item. No surprises. read more

I LOVE Dr. Borna. I've been cringing with fear at the prospect of getting a dental implant for 3 years. Meanwhile, I was walking around town looking like a Korean hillbilly when I smiled. I finally took the plunge after realizing that hosting Korean Hee Haw was not my life goal. Dr. Borna's office allows you to split your payment in half so it was not only the most affordable option but also the best service. I have my smile back thanks to Dr. Borna and his staff. His office is clean, state of the art and very inviting. read more

Dr. Borna is a very patient man. I have seen my fair share of Dentist & Implant specialist in my time and Dr. Borna is clearly one of the best. His staff not only made me feel comfortable but worked with me financially. During the course of my treatment at his office I was well received and well taken care of. I am not brave when it comes to having needles in my mouth but was reassured every time. My bridge came out Great! All I can say to the Dr. & his kind staff is Thank you! They truly have made a difference. read more

Dr. Borna is kind, gentle, and knowledgeable. His assistant Grace is warm and supportive. Nobody likes having oral surgery, but Dr. Borna is skillful at minimizing pain starting with the anesthetic injection. He made my gum surgery and a dental implant experience as positive as possible. read more

I've been going to this office for over twenty years.; first when it was owned and operated by Dr. Freed who was a superb dentist and a terrific guy. Then when Dr. Freed retired and sold his practice to Dr. Borna, I continued seeing Elizabeth, a wonderful hygienist. I recently called to make an appointment with Elizabeth and was told she was no longer there. I asked if I could get a contact number hoping to continue seeing her at her new location. They were dismissive, uncooperative and refused my request. I asked my other dentist to call and make the request thinking the Borna office would extend professional courtesy to give us a contact number so I could continue seeing Elizabeth and have continuity in my dental treatment. Again they refused. They were arrogant, dismissive, unprofessional and uncaring. Avoid them. read more

Dr. Borna is a great professional. He knows exactly what he's doing, and I absolutely recommend him.

Dr Borna is great, he has done lots of work for me and always amazes me. Implant is amazing it looks even better than my original teeth that I had. Definitely recommend to everyone his work and will always refer them to him if they need help!! He is the best around. read more

Dr. Borna is an outstanding periodontist. His receptionist/secretary Naz, is an obnoxious, insensitive woman, to be avoided at all cost. I no longer will go to Dr. Borna's office because of this woman.. I have been a patient of his very professional and competent oral hygienist for more than 20 years, but because of his horrific receptionist/secretary I will no longer be a patient of hers. read more

Dr Borna Is the most dedicated dentist I have ever been to And believe me I have seen a lot of dentist He takes his time to make sure he delivers the perfect outcome I go to him not just for implants but for general dentistry as well He is a perfectionist by all means ! Clean office Great stuff And always on time !! Never had to wait more then 5 min pass my appointment time . Thank you so much For all you have done for me and my family , yes all my family are now Dr Borna's patients ! Truly feel blessed to have found a caring and a professional dentist such as Dr. Borna . read more

Not sure why my review was posted twice but this is a review I wrote for my mother. She does not have a yelp account so I decided to post for her. My review is 100% accurate and I stand by what I said. Claiming that I am a fake reviewer does not make you look good. You're lucky we did not file a lawsuit against you. read more

My first experience at this dental office was defiantly my best dental experience. From the answering the phone in an efficient friendly way till the end of my visit, they made me feel they are treating one of their own family member. Even though I was 15 min late, but I was immediately put in touch with the dentist. Dr. Borna asked me "if I had pain" every 5 second - no joking, EVERY 5 SECOND- They did an implant which was so relaxing and pain Free. The Dr. is so professions and the assistant -I wish I knew her name- was just adorable. Not only I'll be a loyal patient but I will highly recommend Dr. Borna to others read more

Dr Borna is great doctor however he has no bed side manner. I just had major dental work done and the whole thing is gonna last at least a year to finish. What I'm concerned is that it is very hard to get a hold of him and be able to talk and ask questions. I left him one message at the office, another one with the emergency operator and never got a call back. I had to call a third time and his answering service listened to what my problem was and called him and let him know what was wrong. However, he told the operator to tell me that his office is closed today and that if I have a problem I should call his office tomorrow and get an appointment to go see him. Even though he is an excellent surgeon and very straight forward and the price is some what ok, I expected a call the night of the surgery like all other surgeons do ( wondering how the patient is or is the patient has bleeding or discomfort etc. when I told him about that he replied that it is your job to call me if you have a problem. Of course I understand what he was saying but as a courtesy to the patient doctors usually call the night of the surgery to see how the patient is. I guess I was spoiled by other doctors. I expected a call and didn't get one. Now 3 weeks after surgery, one of my front stitches came off last night and there are two others which are loose and are hanging from the roof of my mouth. I don't think Incan wait until tomorrow to see him for such a minor thing. I will cut and pull the two loose stitches and will see him on my scheduled appointment on April 6th since I know he really doesn't care about my discomfort or anything. Don't get me wrong, he is an excellent surgeon and for the past 30 years I have seen almost all the periodontists and endodontists and prosthodontics and I know if a doctor knows what he is doing or not but again I expected a little compassion ( even if he really didn't mean it, it still makes you feel better when your doctor seems to care for you ). That's all. I hope Dr. Borna won't get upset at me for my comments because I will be seeing him for the next year and don't want to start on the bad foot but I can't wIt till tomorrow with all these stitches hanging from the roof of my mouth. I will take care if the myself. read more

Very caring person. I checked many dentists to see who would really be the best choice for doing my implant. He is my top pick based on expertise and knowledge of the procedure and he is able to work out a price point that made sense to me. read more

I started coming to CCD & Dr. Borna over a year ago. A tooth had broken off at the gum line and I would need an implant. I would also require an additional procedure to build up the bone to a necessary depth, in order for the implant to be anchored correctly (lucky me). I can't say I'd wish a broken tooth on anyone, but if it happens, Dr. Borna and his staff are the people to see. He is a first rate professional, with a great chair side manner, extraordinarily thorough and works hard to keep the patient comfortable and relaxed. He personally called me the day after procedures were performed (3 of them) to check on my progress, comfort, and to see if I had any questions. As I told him after I had my new tooth finally in place "I like you so much it's almost worth breaking another one just to come back - almost". I have lived all over the country and moved about 15 times in the last 20 years. I've seen some fine dental professionals over the years but Dr. Borna is the best of the best. read more

I wouldn't recommend this doctor to anyone. He's was totally dismissive of my problem. Paid no attention while I was telling him about it and had the worst attitude of any doctor I've ever gone to. He was very exacting, however, when it came to billing my insurance company for $150.00 for ten minutes of nothing. read more

Very disappointed. I was looking for an office that does general cleaning and stated, "I'm here for a general cleaning". I then was taken to a room and given a cleaning and stated again in the room "I'm here for a general cleaning" but it was filed to my insurance as a periodontal cleaning NOT a general cleaning and thus the procedure wasn't covered by my insurance. I was not informed that the office doesn't offer general cleaning services; I should have been informed instead of being mislead and have service for a procedure I never thought I was receiving. Very upset and very disappointed with the services of this office. read more

A few months ago I was searching on Yelp for a dentist who does transplants and found Dr. Borna. I was cautious, but found no reason for caution at all because Dr. Borna was every bit of a professionally skilled dentist who takes great pride and shows the excellence in his work! Yesterday was the final when he finished by placing in the crown after he placed an implant a few months ago. I am so very thankful for Dr. Borna and I me Thankful. He truly is a dentist with care and concern and obviously loves perfect dentistry. Every time he worked on me, he made sure to continue asking "are you OK?" He was making sure I had no discomfort whatsoever. I'm very lucky to be what I consider an easy patient since I can tolerate dental work fairly easily and have only had a bad experience with other dentists a couple of times. But now I'm so grateful for Dr. Borna and his staff!! I will recommend this wonderful man to all my friends every chance I get. I want to shout out, thank you Dr. Borna and your wonderful caring and helpful staff! read more

Two major gum surgeries turned out to be an unexpected, excellent experience. He is kind, consideret, gentle and extremely competent at what he does. I have been his patient for about a year, two major gum surgeries and I only took, two of my 30 pain killers (had no need for them). These were major surgeries and I went through both, like a breeze. Everyone I khnow who has done the exact surgeries, had suffered beyond words and they were surprise how well I was doing, even few hours afer the surgery. He is, by no means "cheap", but worth every penny (nothing good is cheap). They put me on a payment plan and I paid it monthly. His work is guraranteed, his staff is kind and professional. If you need Periodontic work, he is your man. Highly recommend him. Dont let cheap doctors touch your mouth especially your gums, pay a bit more but get the best. Thanks Dr. Borna, you and your staff are fantastic. read more

DR BORNA is really a honest and very caring doctor and he has low prices for implants and I love how you can pay as you go.I have not been back to him yet because I am low on cash ,but I will definitely go back to him .i need bone graft and implants, I WILL Be BACK read more

Dr. borna was by far the most professional and diligent periodontist i have visited to date. being a professional myself, it was very evident that dr.borna has great work ethics and was very knowledgable about his area of practice. i truly enjoyed my visit to his clinic and would highly recommend him to all who seek a top notch periodontist. the staff at his office was very kind and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure and work that was to be done. he is definetly a top of the line periodontist in this community. keep up the great work doc ! read more
