[[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing staff, especially Michelle at the front desk. She was very thorough in explaining everything to me before we moved forward with anything.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got Dr Jafari who did an amazing deep cleaning for me. I'll definitely be back. I'll definitely be back! read more

Beware this dentistry was sold and is no longer Dr Bruce. So when you read reviews definitely look to the newest ones first. I realized today that my review from 15 years ago is being applied to the new company and I wanted to update it. In case the original view goes away it's worth noting I was a very happy routine client of Dr Bruce for more than a decade and the original review was an unprompted 5 stars. Dr Bruce sold the practice. I was aware of the sale and tried to give the new company that bought the office a shot. Unfortunately my cleaning experience was terrible and literally the worst I've had my entire life. Not only did they do a poor job of cleaning but it was super painful using a high pressure water pick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was in visible discomfort the entire time and when I asked why they changed the cleaning technique the technician simply said it was a new and better method.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was awful to say the least and he had no bedside manner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Anyway I left the appointment and literally started searching for a new dentist the same day so that I would be set for my next cleaning 6 months out. read more

Doctor Jodie is the best! She's been my dentist for the last couple years and has always taken good care of me. She's sharp, knows what she's doing, and always explaining things very well to me which i appreciate. It's a very clean facility with valet parking as well! read more

Fuller Smiles - Venice - General Dentistry Near Me - Culver City, California

Fuller Smiles - Venice made my first-time patient visit surprisingly fun and festive--the Christmas decorations were so cute and immediately put me at ease! My friend and I both came in for our new-patient exams, including X-rays and cleanings, and the entire staff was warm, welcoming, and super efficient. Dr. Nancy Ho was fantastic; she explained everything clearly and answered all my questions without rushing. Our teeth felt sparkling clean afterward, and I loved the ceiling-mounted TV above the dental chair--it made the whole experience more relaxing and helped the time pass quickly. A great first visit and definitely a clinic I'd come back to! read more

Okay besties, storytime: I straight up ghosted the dentist for YEARS (Covid said, "it's OK, use *me* as an excuse to skip the dentist" and I listened ). Pulled up here with teeth that were giving *cry for help* and anxiety through the roof. I needed a ton of care to get back on track. But this office? No cap, they turned my dental villain arc into a full-on glow-up. Walking in felt different right away: no judgment, just a warm welcome and a team that clearly cares about their patients. From the front desk to my dentist, everyone here is friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure you feel comfortable. They don't just do the work, they go above and beyond. They remember you, they check in, they hype you up, and they make the whole process feel way less intimidating. Fast forward a couple years: my teeth are thriving, my anxiety is gone, and honestly? This office gives main character energy every time I walk in. The vibe is supportive, the care is top-notch, and the results speak for themselves. If you're looking for a dentist that's judgment-free, patient-centered, *thorough*, makes you feel good about taking care of your teeth while serving up holiday sparkle-level customer service, this is it. 10/10 Highly recommend. read more

I have been coming to this branch of Fuller Smiles for about 2 years and [[HIGHLIGHT]]I absolutely love them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a gold package for $600/year that has two free cleanings and an exam, as well as discounts. This has saved me so much money as someone who pays out of pocket. The care is top notch, I moved here from a great dental practice in Fruitvale and I've loved the transition. As someone who has been through a lot of dental trauma, Fuller Smiles has never made me feel anxious to go to the dentist. With their recommendations, I'm finally at a point where I'm not overbrushing and I can have appointments with no cavities at all. Cannot recommend them enough!! read more

Fuller Smiles - Venice - General Dentistry Near Me - Culver City, California

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I really enjoyed my experince at Fuller Smiles - Venice and am glad I trusted them with my dental care.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were very professional at both this location and the Culver City location at every step of my experience. After a thorough examination and cleaning, the dentist provided me with an overview of all results on an enlarged screen. Additionally, they discussed various services that are offered on both the cosmetic and medical areas of practice. Billing was very easy and they honored the agreed price with no confusion or upselling. I recommend this practice for maintaining your dental health. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They answer all your questions and take care each time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you're considering this dental office, 10/10 recommend!! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]initially great for the first examination, but Dr. got visibly testy when I asked a follow up question about something he did not communicate very well regarding what tooth needed what service[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]; however, the staff gave me extra x rays and photos for for free when they could tell I was getting very confused; [[HIGHLIGHT]]there is a wide range of things to think about from cavities to fillings to overlays to crowns, so ask the staff whenever you need a question answered[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - the Dr. was very irritated but great when he wasn't lol read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]My experience here has been amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One of the best dental offices I've been to in LA. The office feels and look amazing, equipments are new and clean. The care is great and not pushy on sales etc. highly recommend! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I had a very disappointing experience. I would not recommend this dentist at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pricing was not transparent--initially I was given one estimate, but by the end, the cost increased significantly without clear explanation. Unfortunately, the quality of work also caused me ongoing issues, and I had to seek help from another dentist afterward. Overall, a very bad experience. I strongly suggest doing thorough research before choosing this provide read more

To my fellow doctors and specialists considering working with this office: I had a confirmed clinical start date with this office, including a verbal daily guarantee, and rearranged my schedule and declined other offices to accommodate them. Just two days before the start, they cancelled because they had consistently failed to schedule patients. This caused a complete loss of a clinical day and significant financial harm that could not be recovered on short notice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Communication was equally concerning. The owner consistently failed to respond in a timely manner, and when I addressed the situation, his response was rude and unprofessional rather than taking responsibility or attempting to resolve it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Based on my experience, I strongly recommend having all guarantees, schedule commitments, and cancellation protections clearly in writing before agreeing to work with this office. read more

I've been going to Dr. Nancy at Fuller Smiles for a few years and honestly, it's always a surprisingly delightful experience. Very gentle, very nurturing, very considerate. Sort of like a kind, caring Doula for your mouth? The only negative would be that the parking sucks, but that's LA. Otherwise, cannot recommend more highly! read more

Great dentistry! Thank you Dr. Jodi for the honest and kind care. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The office itself is high tech and the front staff is also great at being transparent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] :) read more

Also had teeth whitening which came out great. What a huge difference. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Reception and dental assistant were great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will be back. read more

Even if Dr Ben and his amazing team (Michelle, Jennifer, Ashley, and Brenda) weren't in the same building as my office, I'd drive here for deep cleaning and their good vibes. Super easy booking online. No upsells. I highly recommend dental care under a weighted blanket watching a TV mounted on the ceiling. And for those getting their teeth cleaned at 4:20, Fuller Smiles has CBD gummies. read more

Fuller Smiles is amazing! The team is kind, gentle, and always makes me feel comfortable. The office is clean, welcoming, and they were punctual on my appointees.. I truly appreciate their professional and caring service read more

Top Quality Care and Service. Fuller smiles took over the family dentist I have been coming to for 28 years. I was sad to see my dentist go but I am so pleased with the dental work I have had done at Fuller Smiles! Still feels like the family dental care I have received for many years and hopefully many more to come. The front office staff are always helpful and friendly in making appointments and rescheduling. -Jameson PS. The most stylish dentist office ever!! read more

Fuller Smiles - Venice - Jameson and his clean teeth!! - General Dentistry Near Me - Culver City, California

They nickel and dime you. Try to have you do multiple X-rays within year. I declined because I have and continue to have very good teeth. The free whitening hurt really bad. I have been here twice and no more after that. Much much better experiences elsewhere. I used to go to sugar free dental in silver lake. I relocated but if anyone lives there, I highly recommended l. Staff and dentist are amazing. Really look out for you and honest. read more

Dishonest/deceiving billing practices. I had been going to Dr. Bruce for 10+ years prior to Fuller Smiles taking over his practice. I've continued to go due to the convenience. They never disclosed that they were out of network for my insurance (they claim they sent an email back in 2021- I never received one). When pressed, they continued to reiterate that they accepted my insurance (Metlife), but failed to disclose they were out of network. Previously, they would have me approve charges before they did the dental work. They did not do this for my recent cleaning. They also added on services that I did not request and was not informed of (like fluoride treatments). Last summer, I had an extreme dental emergency that was exacerbated by the root canal I was given at Fuller Smiles. I had repeatedly told them that I was NOT NUMB, and they proceeded to attempt to work on my tooth, causing me a panic attack due to the acute pain. I ended up paying thousands of dollars to get the work fixed by a specialist at a different practice. The poor dental care I was given, coupled with dishonest billing practices means I will not be returning to this practice. It's a shame, I really loved Dr. Bruce and the location. The dental assistants and many of the dentists are very nice and capable, I will say that. read more

Loved my visit. Very nice people and really cared. Kim was fantastic! I would recommend this place

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing staff and experience at fuller smiles.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Nice and clean facility and very thorough work. Highly recommend! read more

I don't appreciate being lied to. I have referred 5 people to this office. Per Maria the manager, their referral program takes anywhere from 2-3 weeks to be processed. These people were seen Nov 2024 and January 2025. I spoke to her today and she reassured me I was going to get an email. She lied and no such thing happened. I can't wait to hear what lie she's going to come up with next week. read more

Really impressed with Fuller Smiles! The office is super clean and modern, the staff is welcoming and friendly, and the dentist was very thorough and took the time to explain everything. I felt well cared for from start to finish. Highly recommend! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Had such a great experience, great staff and made the entire experience comfortable from beginning to end![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Could not recommend more read more

DO NOT COME HERE. MISDIAGNOSED A STAIN AS A CAVITY. I was told I had a cavity that needed a filling--even though I had no symptoms and the dentist hadn't taken recent X-rays, only a photo. On my way out, the patient coordinator quoted me a filling price by scribbling a number on a blank piece of paper with no details. The whole interaction felt off, so I followed up with my long-time dentist back home. After a proper exam, they confirmed I didn't have a cavity at all-just a surface stain on my molar. I also later discovered through my insurance that Fuller Smiles had submitted a pre-authorization for a silver filling, even though I had specifically requested white composite. So not only were they planning to treat a cavity that didn't exist, but they were prepared to use a material I had explicitly declined. read more

Dr Jody and staff at Fuller smiles are kind and efficient. This location offers all around better service. I generally feel like my concerns are well addressed and expectations are clearly mentioned by the care team. Only downside is they don't validate parking. read more

Everything. Staff, work done, everything was above my expectations. I would recommend anyone to come here for good quality dental work.

Had a visit with Dr. Yassi today and she was truly fantastic, extremely thorough and informative. I had questions about the X-ray findings and she took the time to explain which I appreciated! The office was efficient and everything flowed smoothly. Will be coming here for all future care. read more

This office took over Dr Bruce dental which I was previously a patient of. They told me I needed a deep cleaning. I've been going to dentist for 40 years and no one has ever suggested one. Anyway when they told me it would be close to $609 for the deep cleaning I declined and said I can't do that today. The staff and Dr I believe her name was Dr. Ho made me feel very uncomfortable for declining the deep cleaning. Seems like this new practice is just out to overcharge you so they can keep their office looking fancy. I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Amazing quality of care and regular teeth cleaning! I enjoyed dealing with staff and doctors at the practice read more
