For a long time, I was terrified of going to the dentist and coming to Sugimori Dental. I can say it has been the best experience. They make sure that you feel no pain whatsoever, the quality of care, and the dedication that the staff have are amazing. They match my vibes, which is the best experience that I have ever had at a dental office, I would recommend This dental office to everyone. They truly make you feel like family. read more

I've been going to Sugimori Dental for two years now with my wife and my daughter. All I can say is, this the best dental office ever. Our dentist Dr. Lisa is super thorough every time she checks our teeth yet very gentle at the same time. Her bed side manners is the best and she always makes sure that we don't feel any pain. We also like how personable she is because we can relate to her. We always look forward going to the dentist because of her. The dental hygienist Veronica is awesome, too. She is gentle and funny. Every time she does cleaning on my teeth, it never hurt. I also look forward coming in for my cleaning to see her. Lastly, the office staff are super friendly too. They always notice me when I come in. They are easy to work with and super friendly. Thanks Sugimori Dental! read more

Some of the nicest dental workers I've come across. Made me feel comfortable about talking about my dental history and not feeling ashamed with any of my dental problems. read more

Dr. Ibarra is the best of the best. Extremely kind, chill, and good at what he does. You won't find anyone better than him. Choose him when you go there. read more

I love Sugimori Dental! I had an appointment for a cleaning and a wisdom tooth extraction. Going into my cleaning, I was welcomed by the friendly face of Veronica who was not only very insightful, but helped make the experience comfortable and welcoming. My wisdom tooth extraction was done by Dr. Lisa, she worked so quickly and did such a great job that it was pain free and had no issues or pain during the days of healing. Thank you Sugimori Dental and you have a life long patient from me. read more

If you are looking for a high-quality, trustworthy, professional, and friendly dentist, then you will love Sugimori Dental. I have been to many dentists due to multiple moves and insurance changes over the years, and I am so happy that I found Sugimori Dental because I know that I've now found my forever dentist! I recommend them to everyone I know because not only do they a meticulous and careful job, they work with honesty and integrity. For my husband, we had been told some suspicious recommendations from our previous dentist who wanted him to get some work done. Thankfully, we moved to Torrance before we had a chance to do that because when we went to Sugimori Dental, Dr. Lisa let us know that that wasn't necessary and, sure enough, over half a year later his teeth are still healthy and strong. Some places will barely spend any time with you and try to make you do unnecessary and expensive procedures, but Dr. Lisa treats you like how she'd treat her own family. My teeth have never felt cleaner and better! I also loved how gentle yet thorough they do the cleanings. I used to dread going to the dentist and would skip some years, but I'm actually looking forward to my next visit. Never thought I'd say that! One time, I chipped my front tooth and wanted to get it fixed ASAP because I was leaving on vacation in a few days. Luckily, Dr. Sergio was able to squeeze me in to their busy schedule that same week and fixed my tooth in half an hour. He did such a good job that I can't even feel the difference from my real tooth when I run my tongue against the enamel! Amazing. Overall, the place is easy to find, parking is plentiful and free, the facility is clean, staff are friendly, the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, and the dentists are truly the best!! As I'm growing older, I'm realizing how teeth are so important to your health and quality of life, and you really want to find someone who you can trust to take good care of them for you. Now if only I can find a PCP doctor like this... read more

If you are looking for a new dentist I highly recommend this place. Dr. Lisa took the time to make my teenage son feel comfortable and the procedure he had done was pain free. The front desk was so helpful when it got to finding the right day for my son. Another great thing to highlight is that they emailed me the estimate immediately, not like other places where they always say "we won't know until that day". Hope this helps anyone looking for a new dental office. read more

I have been going to Sugimori for almost 4 years. I highly recommend this dental office! Dr. Lisa is my primary dentist. She does a fantastic job all the time. She took care of my wisdom tooth, cavities, crowns job, general check-ups, and even straightened my teeth! I used to have an overbite, and Dr. Lisa helped me fix them with Invisalign. Now my teeth look amazing! To maintain my straighten teeth, I wear a retainer every night. Dr. Lisa always has extra care to get my retainer fit on my teeth perfectly after each treatment is done. I'm also so impressed she recently fixed my tiny stain spots between my front teeth perfectly. She pays close attention to details so well. When I had severe pain with my cavity while I was in east coast, she gave me amazing urgent response and prescription for medicine across the states. Oh, I don't want to forget to mention the fantastic staff there. They are very friendly and very punctual on time. Some staff speak both Japanese and English. Usually, when you go there at your appointment time, you can be sitting at the treatment seat in 5 mins. If they already know there would be a delay, like 15 mins, they call you and let you know you can go there 15 mins late. (I had 30 mins waiting time once, but that is a rare case in my over 30 times visiting there. ) Now not just myself; my husband and my 2 boys see Dr. Lisa too. We all like Sugimori! read more

Dr. Lisa is an amazing dentist! She is kind and explains things well, and is really good at taking care of our teeth. My daughter just had her cavities done and said that dr. Lisa did it so good that she was falling asleep while dr. Lisa was working on her cavity. It was pain free yay! The staff is also wonderful! From the minute I called them to the minute I stepped into their office, they treated my daughter and I like friends. We had a situation with insurance and they helped us take care of it. They are so understanding and they are good at what they do- both the office staff and dentist. The also keep the office nice and clean and comfortable. They are all so genuine and great to be around with. We're so glad we found them! read more

Highly recommended dental practice. All staffs are very friendly, respectful and polite to each other and to patients. They are always on punctual on appointment time. All the equipments are clean, also the front office is clean. All dental services are done with care. I am new in Torrance, and feel very lucky to find such caring and great quality dental team! read more

Had the best experiences today at the dentist thanks to everyone at the Sugimori Dental. Felt very welcomed and everyone was really pleasant and enjoy the conversations. They even fit me in to get my fillings in the day I came in and I really appreciate the care that I got today and I am looking forward to my journey to have healthy looking teeth and I believe i am in good hands. read more

Upon searching for a new dentist who accepts my senior mother's insurance, found Sugimori Dental. I was completely satisfied with the service, kindness and professionalism from the front office, oral hygienist and doctor. Getting an appointment and filling out new patient information through email, convenient. My senior mother had a very pleasant experience, we plan on making Sugimori Dental her new dental care provider. read more

Great Japanese dentist. Have been going here for past 5 years. Very friendly dentist and staff. Sometimes it is difficult to get appointment, so better to call. Going to Dentist is usually not a great experience, but Sugimori-sensei's friendly and professionalism is really terrific. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Sugimori for more than 10 years. He is the most skillful dentist I've ever had. For example, it took him only less than 20 minutes to numb, cut, extract my wisdom tooth, and stitch. It was flawless. I recommend him to everyone I know! read more

My family moved recently from northern CA and were looking for the dentist/dental practice we left behind--one who is professional, knowledgeable, up-to-date technologically, etc. but more than all of this, one who makes you feel like family--comfortable and welcome. Sugimori Dental is all of this and more. I personally only saw Dr. Ibarra (who is simply wonderful and explained everything and answered all my questions so clearly and comprehensively) primarily for a general exam and cleaning, and my son, daughter, and hubby saw both Dr. Ibarra and Dr. Lisa. They are OUTSTANDING dentists. My family and I are so happy with Sugimori Dental and cannot recommend them highly enough. Do NOT hesitate to make them your family dentist. read more

I found this dentist within our insurance network. We are very happy. My husband had a dental emergency, and they were able to take him the next day due to a cancellation. My husband was really please with how he explained what he was doing, and was very professional. The staff really made him feel at ease. Our last dentist was horrible, she drilled his gum, and since then, my husband has been wanting to find the right one. Dr. Toshifumi even greeted my daughter and I as we were waiting. We scheduled a few more appointments for the next few weeks! read more

We were looking for a dentist that was close to home and in our Blueshield network and found this dental group. Of course, I was leery because they were IN NETWORK. My mistake, I was leery for nothing, they are awesome! The front desk associates are so nice, patient and helpful! Which really helps when you go into a new office. They are the first impression, a plus! 2nd impression the dental assistant who takes you to the back to get you set up for the doctor. She's professional, friendly and efficient, another plus! We were seen by Dr LIsa Sugimori, a very sweet, gentle, kind and knowledgeable person. My husband, who is not very fond of dentist was comfortable and willing to go back again! :o) a definite plus! Lastly, he had his teeth cleaned by the hygienist and he said she did a great job and will definitely see her again. He's not fond of hygienist either. Our old dentist was great too but they didn't really have any high tech equipment like this dental group. The only way you'll know you're going to love this office, is by calling and making an appointment. read more

The whole team is great, I needed an appointment as soon as possible and they were able to get me in fast. The receptionist Monica was very helpful and nice , answered all my insurance questions. Dr Lisa is my primary dentist and she is great, very nice since the start and explains everything in detail. All the staff is very welcoming! read more

I'm glad I found them. They are everything you could ask for in a dentist and more. Excellent professional high quality results, trustworthy and friendly, truly concerned for their patients needs and comfort. I don't plan to go anywhere else for my families dental needs ever again. Highly recommend!! read more

I've been to many different dentists in the South Bay, and Dr Sugimori is my favorite! I love how if my appointment is at 12pm, I will be seen at 12pm. I have never had to wait! The staff is SUPER friendly, and Dr Sugimori is just simply the best. He's very fast and thorough, and never wastes any time. :) read more

Sugimori's knowledge and technology seem as new as early 70's, and never updated since. I found a white spot on gum. It was a sign of Alveolar pyralia infections. He disinfected the area by injections, but the infection kept coming back. I went to see him 3 times to clean the area, but infections never went away. I found later that he was just a regular dentist, who had no knowledge for root canal treatment. He should have told me that. In few months, the infections spread deeper and wider even to adjacent teeth. I started to look for root canal specialists thru internet. I found a good doctor, who strongly recommended implants before infections got spread much wider and deeper into borne. I'd probably lost three teeth, if I stayed with Sugimori. read more

I was lucky that I found them in my dental insurance Inside network. Very knowledgeable and kind professionals!!

Simply the best on all aspects!!! I have been going for many years. Very knowledgeable and caring. Utmost professional

I will NEVER go there again. (Can't go anyway) They didn't even make sure my treatment was covered by the insurance first, then started treatment without any acknowledgement and guess what...they told me the insurance was out of network and asked me to pay the cost. They gave me a tiny percentage of discount but asking to pay over $500 without any notice in advance is not acceptable. They said this is the miscommunication between them and the insurance company, but it's still their responsibility to let the patient know before starting any treatment especially if I couldn't use my insurance there at all!! I went there for a check up and had no idea what they did was a costly treatment. If I knew I would have picked a different dentist. I even gave them my insurance info when I made an appointment. With only a half of my treatment is done, I have to find another dentist asap. To make me feel worse, the doctor told me that my insurance was "CHEAP" so it wouldn't have covered much anyways. He has no idea how much I pay for the insurance every month. It never happened to me before or at any other doctors appointments, and I think I have better insurance than average. Very unprofessional, disappointed, and wasted my time. read more
