From the moment you walk into Smile the Spa, you are greeted by warm friendly folks and a serene atmosphere. They always remember my name and welcome me like I am an old friend. For my first visit, I had a dental cleaning, and I knew immediately that this was a great place. It was such a thorough cleaning and the technology Dr. Terra uses is first rate. I was terrified of the dentist, and I had A LOT of work to do. Many crowns, fillings, fixing some really crazy teeth, and oral surgery. All this before I can do the "fun stuff" (Invisalign and whitening). Whereas other dentists have made my road so long I have eventually given up, Dr. Terra gently and efficiently led me through a healing process. Within months, I now have new teeth! Yes!! And I was scared, but Dr. Terra referred me to an amazing surgeon; I was able to conquer my fear because I knew that if Dr. Terra trusted them, I could too. Thanks to all this work, I will soon start the fun stuff! And yes, my new teeth (Crowns) are GORGEOUS. Dr. Terra is an artist. He makes the crowns himself and they are incredible (and done so so quickly - no more waiting around with a temp crown for months!). I cannot tell you the difference Smile the Spa has made in my smile, my confidence, and my overall health. I am also on a fitness and health journey and Dr. Terra is always interested, remembers my goals and interests, and asks how I am doing. He supports a healthy lifestyle and is super wonderful to be around. Overall, I am so grateful to Dr. Terra and the team at Smile the Spa. Truly a life changing experience.

I followed the prompt it gave me when I called, and it went exactly how it said it would. They got me in the same week as a new patient, handled my cleaning, and fixed my permanent retainer all in one visit. I'm very particular about quality of service and my teeth in general, and it showed right away that the entire staff took the time to review my information and make the experience feel personal, not rushed or pressed for upsells. It was an incredibly warm experience. Customer service was excellent. The team was efficient, took care of everything I needed, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. Extra star for having chapstick on hand. My lips usually dry out fast during appointments, so that small detail was the icing on the cake. I walked out with clean teeth, my retainer fixed, and hydrated lips. Highly recommend this office if you want an independent dentist that really cares about their patients.

They removed all of his teeth and gave him a completely new smile--and the transformation was honestly life-changing. Seeing my father smile again with confidence meant everything to me.

We're so grateful we found this place and trusted them with my father's care. If you're considering All-on-4 implants for yourself or a loved one, this is absolutely the place to go.

It's never a great thing to find out when you have somewhat of a dental emergency (cracked molar) and don't really have time to research much. I did some quick research and found a solid digital trail of Dr. Chima and his previous office with good reviews. After speaking with Dr. Baba's staff, who seemed confident in him, I booked an appointment. Everyone--from Noah at the front desk to Kim the hygienist--was professional and friendly. The office has been nicely remodeled, with updated equipment and TV monitors at each station. I watched 8K footage of Hawaii to get in the mood for my upcoming trip--super relaxing. They were very thorough--lots of X-rays and questions from the hygienist before I met Dr. Chima. He clearly explained everything from the X-rays, and I did end up needing a crown. Noah came in with my insurance info and cost breakdown. Delta Dental only covers about half, so I expected some out-of-pocket costs, but there was also an unexpected fee for a "new lab" they wanted to use to make the crown. That wasn't great to hear, but the visit had gone well overall, so I went ahead. They placed the temporary crown that day, and I returned two weeks later for the permanent one. Dr. Chima really knows what he's doing. The novocaine was spot-on--just the area needed, not my whole mouth like in the past. The rest was painless, and both times they made sure my bite felt perfect before I left. Another nice thing is they accept Care Credit here. I'm glad I stuck with this office. Congrats to Dr. Chima on his new practice--I wish him continued success and plan to be a long-term patient.

I took the chance on calling the office, though it was 6:57PM, thinking I would get the Answering Service or voicemail. Was I ever thrilled when Desireé actually answered after I held a bit! She was able to make an appointment the next morning at 11:30AM with my dentist!! WHAT A RELIEF!! I was VERY happy that Dr. Robert Nochez and Long Beach Smiles Dentistry was able to fit me in on such short notice the very next day! It ended up being a root canal and a crown because of the vertical cracking of the tooth but at least it wasn't an implant!! And this is even crazier, the next week, a crown I have had for many years feel out in the sink I the morning while I was water flossing! I figured it would be no big deal and they could just re-cement it but nope--there was decay next to the gum and they had to clean it up and I needed another crown since the margins no longer match. Again, it was great that they were able to fit me in when I called that morning; and with my doctor, once again! Tracy was so great, so empathetic and we worked out a time of 11:00AM which fit with another doctor appointment! Thank you, Long Beach Smiles Dentistry!

They not only overcharged me for services that were capped by my insurance but their mismanagement of my account with a secondary lender caused my credit rating to plummet. If you have an HMO Dental Plan, they are prohibited from charging anything over the "Maximum Allowable Charges" that are set by their "capitation" agreement with the insurance company. I was overcharged by $3,388 for dental work and only found out because I spoke with the insurance company the OTHER time they tried to overcharge me. I only found out after demanding itemized receipts and comparing them with the fees on the Delta Dental website. Besides the issue with the outside lender, I have overpaid them $844.00 out of pocket and they refuse to pay the money back. I will be taking them to court but can only imagine how many more people they have done this to. If you have ever gone to Long Beach Smiles at 5555E. Stearns Street in Long Beach, please ask for your itemized receipts and compare them to the maximum allowable charges. Please contact me if you find anything. I believe that this could rise to the level of a class action. It can't just me me. Thanks, Kellie
