    Ask the Community - Willard Hankins Jr, DDS

    Does he have more modern X-ray equipment like imaging or does he use the bite cards that make you gag?

    Dr. Hankins office has the latest Digital X-Ray technology and a great staff, but unfortunately the bite blocks are still required for the most accurate digital pictures.

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!

    Been coming here since 2019…read more I had my teeth cleaning appointment December 2025. I had to pay $240 out of pocket with a PPO insurance (weird because I never paid this much before but whatever). Today, I get a text and email stating I have a balance of $40 (again weird). So I login to my smiles dentistry account and saw that they BILLED $2443 to my insurance and after insurance, I had a balance of $40 I needed to pay off. Who bills the insurance $2443 for a cleaning, not even a deep clean.

The dentist took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire visit. The level of care, attention to detail, and patient-centered service truly stood out. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and the quality of their work. Highly recommend!

To make sure he was the right doctor I wanted to go to. As I had bad experiences with prior dentists with care and some disregarding pronouns. Hopefully, I don't run into any of these issues here. After back and forth with pricing and patient reviews from different dentist. I found I was able to get a decent price for my Invisalign with my insurance here. From my observation from going here for about a year. His office is clean and his team is professional when they check you in, and sending reminders of appts or rescheduling. Mornings are usually their busiest. Might have to wait depending how busy they are. In my experience for my check up visits, Im usually in and out (Which is nice). My check up appts are between 6-8 weeks. I usually see his techs. They did my attachments and removal. And receive my next set of retainers and some chewies. From the prior set of attachments two of them came out but they said it was fine. One of my attachment removal is still a little sensitive think it might have been grinded down a little too much. I can see some of my teeth are slowly but surely getting straight. I've seen Dr.Cho a handful of times with the consultation, grinding for gapping teeth and two or three of my check ups. Two more appt and hopefully I won't need it anymore sets. I understand their office is busy. But, more checks from the Dr through the invisalign process about progress and concerns would have been more reassuring.
