Today, Dr. Jedian deconstructed, cleaned out, , and tightened a screw on a crown that he had put in for me in 2019. The screw had become a bit loose. The implant feels even better now than the original! As always, he did it patiently, professionally, and most importantly expertly. I can't thank him enough for supporting and backing the work he did 7 years ago. If you're looking for a good , knoeledgable, and honest dentist, Dr. Jedian is your Dr. I have to mention the front office girl who quickly and in a very friendly manner set up an appointment for me to see the Dr. She told me he'd take care of it and he did. I'm so very happy about this experience. read more

Still going 15 years later and I only have positive things to say. A very solid, trustworthy place. Doesn't try to upsell, pleasant and quick. No long wait times, easy to schedule an appointment. Consistent experience year after year. Only suggestion is that some things like chairs look worn and could use a visual refresh. read more

Just took my very nervous 15 year old and Dr. Jedian was SO gentle, quick, and made him so comfortable! He is amazing!!! read more

The SmileMakers - Getting our cavities filled in - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This Dental office is by far the best dental experience I've ever had! They make you feel welcomed, safe and comfortable from the moment you walk in till the end of your visit plus they're amazing at reminding you about your follow up appointments . In the past visiting other dental offices has always given me a sense of anxiety and even felt embarrassed a little to be there considering that honestly I don't visit the dentist often enough so by the time I do I'm over due for a visit . This Dental office is different though, I even made it back to my scheduled follow up appointment I definitely recommend !!!! read more

Dr. Sharokh Jedian is wonderful. Very gentle demeanor and put me at ease. I am usually an anxious patient, but there was nothing to be anxious about. In addition, he didn't keep me waiting and never tried to "upsell." On the contrary, saved my tooth, rather than trying to talk me into a crown. Highly recommended. read more

Dr.Jedian, is the most skilled, and honest dentist I've ever met. I will gladly recommend him to all my family and friends. Always a pleasure being worked on by his honest hands! read more

I am so appreciative of Dr. Jedian. He'd been encouraging me for at least a year to follow up with an oral surgeon about a tooth that was going to give me more and more problems. I dragged my feet, of course, until it started to give me a ton of pain. I couldn't get an appointment with the oral surgeon for 2 weeks so went to see Dr. Jedian, hoping he could ease the pain while I waited. Instead, he picked up the phone, spoke to the surgeon, and got me a same day appointment. I could not believe how lucky I was. He is not only skilled and efficient, but incredibly nice and genuinely cares. I definitely lucked out finding him! read more

I've been going to see Dr. Jedian for years. Wouldn't think of going to another dentist. He is professional, understanding. and gentle. He definitely cares about each of his clients. The office is relaxed and always makes for a non-stressful visit. The office staff, especially Melissa, is also kind and caring; always helpful when dealing with payment methods, and visits. I highly recommend Dr. Jedian and his office! read more

Dr. Jedian did teeth bonding on my front upper teeth. I had gaps in between my teeth as a result of bone loss. I am very happy with the results, it looks great. read more

Lastly Dr Jedian was incredible. I walked out feeling confident with my new smile! Thank you so much SnileMakers!! Will deff be coming back and recommending to all my family and friends. read more

1. The receptionist/front office person needs to improve on her client service skills, such as understanding that it is her job to take a message and have the dentist call me back when he is available--NOT to tell me as a client to call back, especially when the dentist's availability is extremely limited and unpredictable. Hearing her disgruntlement when I asked her to do this was NOT cool. The two stars were deducted mostly for the poor client service experience. 2. It also shouldn't have to be said that when she DOES take a message asking for a call back from the dentist, that she is the one who is paid to follow through and see that the call IS returned. I never heard back from her or the dentist. 3. The last appointment I made during that last call was apparently not actually made; I never got any confirmation and I have given up on this dentist. 2. Dr. Jedian is very nice and has excellent "chairside" manners. I would not hesitate to go back for any dental work solely based on this. HOWEVER, I went in for what I thought was a cleaning covered under my Delta Dental plan--the first time I had even USED the benefits of this plan, BTW. It was not covered, because so much time had elapsed since my last cleaning, and I ended up paying a LOT. The explanations I got from both parties were obtuse and frustrating, and it was all about "the codes." If I had just been made aware of this while I was still in the chair, before that expensive cleaning began, I might not have felt so unhappy about all of this. read more

Great experience, great people! Melissa A. was awesome. She helped me out and her positive vibes just flows through out. Dr. Jedian was great, very professional and knows what he is doing. I'll definitely keep coming back, they have a new customer for good read more

I wrote my initial 5 star review based on how amazingly kind, caring, and responsive Dr. Jedian was to my complicated dental problems, and how easily and expertly he came up with a workable treatment plan to solve them. That alone is a BIG DEAL. I'd seen 3 dentists before finding Dr. Jedian. The 1st was scary, all ego and bluster, and didn't even discuss a treatment plan with me! He said it would be emailed to me. It never was. I even called to remind the person in charge of creating it (which wasn't even him, apparently) and sending it to me, and I STILL never got one. The 2nd said my dental issues were beyond his level of competence to treat (!) and said I needed a prosthodontist for my humongously serious and complicated dental issues. (Is that intense or what?!) The 3rd was the prosthodontist he referred me to. He didn't explain anything, just slapped me with a $14,000 treatment plan, NONE of which was covered by my dental insurance. When I asked if I could call him if I had any questions once I'd reviewed it, he said "No. I don't have time for talking on the phone." Meanwhile the bottom left side of my mouth was starting to ache. SHOOT! What was I going to DO? I went back and pored over the list of providers for my dental plan one more time. I wanted to find a woman dentist this time (these men had shaken me to the core!) I narrowed the search to three- only one was a man. Yet my gut told me to go with him, so I did. Thank GOD! It was Dr. Jedian. When I called, HE was the one who returned my call. When I told him my tale of woe, he LISTENED. He squeezed me into his schedule the very next week. There was no mention at all of how "direly complicated" the work he needed to do was. He easily broke it into segments, laid out how much would be billed to insurance and how much I'd have to pay out of pocket- which was about $4,000, not $14,000! He also guaranteed me that that the amount he quoted would not change, no matter WHAT my insurance company tried to get out of paying. The first segment was most critical--the broken bridge that was already starting to ache-- so we scheduled that within a few days. When the pain in my mouth suddenly got worse before then, I called the emergency number given on his voicemail on a Sunday night, and HE answered the phone. The next morning, I was in his office and the broken bridge and the infected tooth beneath it were carefully, gently, removed. Just like that! I could go on. There's a lot more I could tell you about this wonderful dentist. But this is already really long. In a nutshell, I didn't think there WERE any dentists like Dr. Jedian in corporate America anymore! And he knows his stuff, by the way. He teaches dentistry part-time at USC. He's a true healer. THANK YOU, DR. JEDIAN! (I even made him let me take his picture, lol.) read more

The SmileMakers - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here for a cleaning and to get a couple fillings checked out... This was the first time since I was a kid that I went to a dentist that I actually liked!! First off, the office is clean, the staff is polite and professional and the doctor didn't try to up sell me on anything. He was honest, knowledgable, and genuinely seemed to enjoy doing what he does. My previous dentist in LA had told me I had to have 2 of my filling redone and that I needed to do some sort of covering on the slight abfractions that I have from braces from my teen years. Great dentist, and great staff. Happy a friend referred me. P.s. They're in network with blue shield! read more

Dr. Jedian is truly an amazing dentist. I wish there were more of them out there. He does excellent quality work. His staff is amazing too. Always on schedule and quick so you can get back to your day. Highly recommend! read more

Dentist is lovely and honest. Have been going for years and no negative experiences. He does not try to upsell or force you into unnecessary procedures as I've experienced with other dentists. Never had a long wait either. read more

Dr. Jedian is great I recommended this place to my friends and family thanks smile makers

Dr. Jedian recently made and implant for me. It's a great fit and It feels like one of my own natural teeth! I'd had a huge recurring problem with my previous dentist and was very anxious about the implant. Dr. Jedian has a great team of periodontist and maxillofacial Drs he works with who are magnificent! His office staff is equally professional. I feel very lucky to have found this wonderful professional and caring dentist. Thank You read more

Usually when I go to the dentist I feel anxious and a bit nervous. This time it was a totally different experience and very pleasant. With mentioning that I had 1 hour and a half of work done on my teeth as you can imagine, not fun. Doctor shahrokh was very easy going and friendly, you could tell he cares about his patient's. Why do I say that, because when I was there he was explaining to one of his patients over the phone what needed to be done and how to do it properly. He was very professional and explained everything step by step and the reason for it. unlike other doctors that just imagine you know everything and forget that you may be nervous and want to know everything that is being done to them. So for me I found my dentist for life and highly recommend him to anybody that doesn't like dentists in general! read more

The practice was very professional. Staff was very nice & made me feel very comfortable. I would refer family & friends.

I went here to get a second opinion. My insurance sent me to Bright Now Dental and I was very unhappy with their service. But when I came here I was throughly pleased. Dr. Jedian was both very professional and very personable. I am glad I found this office. I would highly recommend him. read more

We love Dr. Jedian! We've been coming here for over 10 years and he's the best dentist around! Everyone in the office is polite, easygoing, and usually will help out with payment methods or insurance planning the same day!!! He usually gives you a few choices on what to do or how to handle an urgent tooth situation! Thank you!! read more

They sure didn't​ make me smile. If you have dental insurance, carefully look at the dental plan they suggest and check all the charges with your insurance company. After my visit,​ I received the dental plan I needed for treatment. I did need the treatment that was recommended but they did not use ANY of the correct "billing codes" on the plan, sidestepping my insurance co-pays and were trying​ to overcharge me $6,000 in charges that would have been paid for by my insurance company. When I confronted them about this, they then told me to come in for the treatment and we could work it out. When I called to confirm the appointment and asked again about the correct insurance charges, they told me they no longer accept my insurance and I would need to pay the $6K. I called my insurance company and told them of this issue, they checked and Smile Makers were still in the insurance company plan and they just FLAT OUT LIED. I get that businesses need to make up some money in this world of COVID, but I also need to be able to use the insurance​ I have been paying for. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Jedian's going on ten years now. Before him, my previous dentist botched a basic filling that eventually led to a double-root canal. After the fun and excitement of that procedure, my former dentist proceeded to lay my crowns wrong which resulted in the further adventure of having them redone twice (they still failed). Dr. Jedian not only corrected the crowns, he's expertly handled a removal and a tooth implant of mine as well as regular cleanings. Hands down, the best dentist in Los Angeles. Besides that, he's charming and affable and his bedside manner is second to none (as is his excellent support staff). I cannot rate Dr. Jedian and the team at SmileMakers high enough! read more

Dr.Jedian is amazing Dentist , he is the best dentist I ever known , very high educated and gentle have very professional technology ,Highly recommended. His office is the Best in All Los Angeles . Big thank you for the office staff and medical staff working in the office amazing people that handling you from the beginning as soon as you step in his office. read more

The staff is very friendly. And I like Dr. Jedian. After only being in one time, a tooth that I had a root canal on 10 year earlier finally gave way and chipped (I had never capped it). I called the office and they took me right in. Within a few hours I had a temporary crown and a week later a new porcelain permanent one. The prices are the same as any other dentist. But the difference is he takes you in right away! You don't have to wait an hour for your appointment like I have experienced at other dentists in the area. read more

I had a sudden need for a crown and the original dentist i went to wanted about $1200 bucks! So, after some searching, I found Dr. Jedian through yelp and google. The doctor was able to help me figure out why my original dentist wanted to keep one of my kidneys as payment and was able to offer me a much better option. He saved me about $500 bucks on everything. So far i've gotten the tooth build-up and temproary crown. Next is the appointment for the permanent. All my interactions with Dr. Jedian and his staff have been pleasant. It's nice to finally find a dentist who doesn't keep you waiting. read more

Highly recommended to see this dentist the doctor all the stuff are nice and friendly ,very satisfied with all the work he's done, make me smile freely and have more confident about my self thank you SmileMakers you the best read more

This is one of the few times I feel compelled to leave a review. Enough favorable things cannot be said about this dental practice & Dr. Jedian. Rating broken down by categories: Staff: The front desk staff is extremely courteous and help ensure a smooth visit from start to finish. Doctor's Competence: Dr. Jedian is both confident and attentive with his patients. You know you are in good hands when he speaks. He is methodical and thorough but with ease and finesse. Cleanliness: The reception area is tidy & clean as are the patient rooms. Everything sparkles which is great given that the tools are destined for your mouth. Technology: Smile Makers Dentistry blows away the competition. Their use of email, text & phone calls for appointment booking and reminders is first class. 5 Stars Dr. Jedian & his friendly staff have established a clean and efficient environment for your dental matters. I endorse him to all co-workers and friends who live in the area and now to you. If you need a good dentist, try the SmileMakers, you will be happy you did. read more

I hate going to the dentist because it often hurts and dentists are not known for their bedside manner, but Dr. Jedian and his staff were kind and reassuring throughout and made my experience very positive. I really needed that and I'm very grateful for it. He will be my dentist from now on. read more

I've been seeing Dr Jedian for general dental care for the past 5 years. In that time, I've had my share of dental issues as well. This is a man who is always approachable, kind, and friendly no matter what. He remembers his patients gets to know them well. He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain and educate you on your issues. That said, he also feels totally comfortable admitting when he doesn't know something and referring to the best specialists for another opinion. He will never suggest or offer to do a procedure that he doesn't believe is absolutely necessary and in your best interest. Dr. Jedian is an honest and highly skilled dentist who you can feel totally comfortable with. read more

I am a current patient at smile makers, I cannot express how great my experience has been. All the staff is very friendly the receptionist Melissa is really tentative and makes sure to call and remind me of all appointments. The dr does great work he makes sure I am at ease for all procedures I tend to be really nervous but every time I come in they make me feel comfortable. Highly recommend this dental office. 5 star experience every time I visit. read more

Dr. Jedian is lovely. I did not care for the 40 minute wait, when I had already arrived 10 minutes early for my appointment. The wait was explained by his equally lovely staff as a result of him not being "able to say no to walk-ins." On that day, I could wait, and it wasn't a major issue. However, it did make me reconsider future bookings, as it is not often that I can afford to wait 40 minutes to begin an appointment that I banked on taking no more than 45 minutes. I did wait, because Dr. Jedian is quite good. The entire SmileMakers staff is professional and courteous. read more

I did not go see this Dentist, but I have a situation where I was experiencing pain on the side of a new crown from early January. I was looking to get an appointment for a second opinion since it was unusual to those around me who have had crowns that 1 1/2 months later I would still be experiencing discomfort when I did not have discomfort prior to the crown. Anyway, I was expecting to get the front desk, but instead I got the Dentist. What I found highly unusual was that he took quite a lot of time to listen to my situation and offer some insight and direction with regard to the next steps....which was basically to remain patient unless the area gets worse or does not heal after 6 months. The fact that he was willing to spend the time with me to put my mind at ease when I wasn't even one of his existing patients was unexpected and deserving of mention here in Yelp. I can't think of any place that has shown me that type of concern without having an appointment and take time from their schedule to educate me on the fact that a crown can take time to heal even if for most it only takes a couple of days. If things do get worse, there is a good chance I will make an appointment with this Dentist because he obviously cares about his patients. read more

Very disappointed and dissatisfied with this dentist. He made me a mouth guard and pretended he was giving me an amazing discount when all he was was just making me a cheaper version! Rip off!! I feel so fooled. Always get a second opinion! read more

I have a similar story to everyone on this page. Bad past experiences, broken trust, Dentists trying to upsell me into everything under the sun (I literally haven't been back to a Dentist in almost 10 years). Not with Dr. Jedian. I explained my past experiences and he took every precaution to be straightforward and forthcoming with me. I also have a hard time responding to lidocaine, so he made sure that I was fully numb before starting the procedure to repair a filling that had broken from a previous Dentist's work. I liked him and his staff so much that I already pre-scheduled two additional appointments for deep cleaning and an extraction that I need. Thank you Dr. Jedian and can't wait to come back and get these procedures done that I so desperately need. I would definitely recommend them. read more

I just had a wisdom tooth pulled from Dr. Jedian! I was so nervous but his calm disposition was helpful. He has a good hand. Didnt feel a thing! He has always been honest. Being a patient of his for 10 years, I appreciate his knowledge and work. I wouldn't go to anyone else. I know I'm in good hands with him. read more

So disappointed with this place. My first visit was great but when I was referred to get 2 root canals, I was sent to an endodontist who did a terrible job on both of my root canals and to top if off never even put a temporary crown on either tooth. My second root canal with their referred endodontist left my face swollen and I was unable to lift the left side of my face, I left the office and walked around for 2 days looking as if I was having a stroke and had to miss work. When I called this dentist to schedule for my crowns they tried telling me that I would have to pay nearly 800 bucks for a METAL crown per tooth and I needed 3!!! That's with insurance, so ridiculous. When I told them if they are able to place a temporary crown until my insurance changes in less then a month they refused. I will not go back to this place, they don't deserve my service. All this office cares about is money. So if you have money to waste on mediocre dental work then this is the place for you. read more
