Jean-Jacques Elbaz, DDS, MS

I saw Dr. Elbaz for the removal of a failed dental implant. Dr. Elbaz and his staff are professional and very caring of their patients. The procedure required anesthetizing the area just under my nose (very painful place for needles) and I was not looking forward to it. For many years it has been difficult for dental anesthesia to work properly and causes extreme pain. I was astounded when he numbed the area and I did not feel anything… nothing. He took such care and had so much patience that for the first time in years, I walked out without having felt any pain. Thank you Dr. Elbaz!

My boss Nan recently went to Dr. Elbaz, and I thought her review was worthy of a Unilocal.She got back to the office, and said that Dr. Elbaz was the kindest, gentlest, most professional periodontist she’d ever been to. If that’s not a glowing review, I don’t know what is. What I do know is that I’ll be going to him next time I need any work done at all!

Wow what a kind and wonderful periodontist!!! Im so grateful to have found Dr. Elbaz. I was immediately at ease when I met and spoke to him. His staff is also extremely sweet and helpful. I got a gum graft this week and was pretty nervous about it but Dr. Elbaz and his staff made the procedure very comfortable and painless. He even called me later that day to see how I was feeling. His office is also so beautiful, clean, and pleasant. During the procedure they have Netflix which was nice! Dr. Elbaz is such a kind and warm person you will be so happy you found a doctor that really cares and wants to help you. The whole office has great energy and you leave feeling happy. Thank you so much Dr. Elbaz!!!

There is simply nobody better than Dr. Elbaz. He is a warm, personable, highly intelligent, caring man, who has outstanding skills as an oral surgeon. He knows exactly what he’s doing, but is never in a rush, always explains if you want him to, has soft, delicate hands so that nothing ever hurts, and his office and staff are highly professional and competent as well. Everything about the experience, led by Dr. Elbaz himself, is first class. First class. If there were 10 stars to give, I would give him 10.

A great and wonderful dentist!
Dr. Elbaz is a great and wonderful dentist, very caring and attentive, with a truly helpful and friendly staff. It is a pleasure to visit his sparkling offices.

This guy is top notch, and one of the most skilled yet genuinely nice doctors that I have ever encountered.
I went in this past Monday to get a procedure done, and it was literally PAINLESS. Getting my eyebrows waxed hurts more than Dr. Elbaz cutting off my gums!!! He’s an artist with the perfect bedside manner to match.
I highly recommend.

5 stars on all accounts!
Dr Elbaz is a wonderful professional and a gentleman, surrounded with a team of great competence. The office, along with the rooms are nice, clean and comfortable. The equipment is top notch too! I would never go anywhere else and recommend it to everyone who want to enjoy her/​his trip to the dentist!

The VIP experience! You get what you pay for! I’ve been to a fair amount of dentists in my life but none quite like Dr. Elbaz. Everything about this office is first class.
When you first walk in you get greeted by two friendliest young man and woman. After getting offered a complimentary bottle water by almost the whole office, they even insisted on baking me cookies in office! I almost forgot i was at the dentist.
After being seated, I was promptly seen by Dr. Elbaz. He addressed all my concerns and offered my the best solutions, i can honestly say he seemed to care about my mouth more than I did!
I’ve been suffering from severe periodontitis from a early age but after seeing the hygienists at Dr. Elbaz’ office i finally started to notice an overall improvement in my oral health!

I am beyond impressed with Dr. Elbaz and the staff!
From my first visit to his office, I immediately felt welcomed and comfortable. The staff in the front was so kind and amazing! I was even offered water, coffee, and fresh baked cookies that made the office smell wonderful! (Not the usual dental office smell.)
As soon as I was brought back to the room, the assistant was so kind and caring and made sure I was comfortable — offering the massage on the chair! I was beyond impressed, never had that offered at ANY dental office before!
As soon as Dr. Elbaz came in he was concerned with my needs, and was very thorough on what I needed done. Even drew me a diagram that helped explain what was going on.
I am beyong pleased with my experience and will continue to see Dr. Elbaz and recommend him to others!

I have been to Dr. Elbaz’s office twice now. The office is first class and runs like a well oiled machine. The staff is friendly and professional. On my first visit, four people offered me a bottle of water and the chair had a built in back massager. Dr. Elbaz and his assistant, Irma, take great care when explaining procedures and make sure their patients are comfortable. Going to the dentist has never been a more pleasant experience.

There’s nothing I can say that’s wrong or unpleasant. I can only say that he’s the best and he knows what he’s doing and took care of me more than anyone had ever. I will only go to Dr. Elbaz from now on.

Thank you Dr. Elbaz for the amazing work you do and how genuine you are and how much you care. After my first visit, I found out Dr. Elbaz is considered a top guy is his field. No wonder he’s so good at what he does! I’m happy to write this 5-​star review. Dr. Elbaz is EXCELLENT. This is a real review. I highly recommend Dr. Elbaz. You’ll love him.

wow, I had a very tricky gum infection that required some delicate work. Dr. Elbaz is fantastic. His work was excellent, has the best bedside manner you could ask for. The staff is great, friendly and helpful. The office is super clean. Run don’t walk to him for any work required. Ed N.

Dr. Elbaz is amazing. I was looking for a new dentist because my prior dentist always made me feel very rushed and concerned that any work he did would be performed quickly just to get it done instead of patiently to get it right. So I decided to try Dr. Elbaz based on Unilocal reviews and I was very impressed.
First impressions: The office environment was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The oral hygienists were friendly and really took their time to perform their work. And Dr. Elbaz had a great bedside manner and was not pushy with anything, very informative and helpful, in fact.
He doesn’t provide general dentistry, but I needed a couple other things looked at. I had been experiencing sensitive teeth and a crown was beginning to show the metal underneath at the gumline. My prior dentist told me it was time to replace and crown and he could do it quickly. Dr. Elbaz actually took the time to determine why the metal was showing and why my teeth were sensitive and traced it back to apparent teeth grinding in my sleep. In fact, if i replaced the crown, its likely that my gums would continue to recede and I’d have to replace again in the future.
So, he recommended to start with a night guard to prevent the grinding and suggested some easy alternatives, such as buying one off Amazon to try. Instead, I had him make a professional guard, for which he took extreme care to ensure he made one that was perfectly comfortable for me. I have noticed an instant improvement in the sensitivity of my teeth. Also, now that I’ve stopped the grinding my gumline should stop receding and Dr. Elbaz can perform a simple skin graft to cover the metal showing at the top of my crown. No new crown necessary.
If you want someone who will take the time to understand your issue and takes pride in his work, look no farther.

Absolutely wonderful oral surgeon. I felt completely cared for through the entire process of having my implant done. I can’t imagine better service and care. His office staff is also exceptional. From the minute you walk into his office you feel a sense of peace and calm. How is that even possible? I mean, he’s a dentist after all! But he really does succeed at creating a peaceful and calming experience from start to finish. A perfect experience from beginning to end.

After seeing perfect reviews on Unilocal,I felt confident that I would be happy with Dr Elbaz for my teeth cleaning and a question about a chipped tooth. Somehow he managed to exceed my high expectations. The whole process was flawless. Peaceful music when I walked in, everyone working there was very friendly, and most importantly, I felt like I became an expert on my teeth after the thorough explanations Dr Elbaz gave me on how to take care of them. Usually I have to ask questions before dentists give me valuable information I should know. Not in this case. Dr Elbaz mentioned many things I would not even know to ask about. I have had multiple dentists and he is far and away the best.
It is a 20 minute drive for me, but there is no way I am seeing anyone else. I highly recommend him!!! I give him 6 out of 5 stars.

I was referred to Dr. Elbaz as a specialist when I was told I needed a gum graft by my dentist, and I was terrified about the entire process. Dr Elbaz was so kind and thoughtful, and immediately put my mind to ease with his gentle bedside manner and thorough explanation of what was going to happen during the process and recovery.
Over the past few years I’ve gone back to Dr. Elbaz for an extraction, bone graft and multiple gum grafts, and I could not imagine being in better hands. Dr. Elbaz is incredibly skilled at what he does and manages to perform with both minimal pain and aesthetically discreet result. He also never fails to personally call after major procedures to check up and make sure his patients are doing okay and see if I have any follow up questions! Dr. Elbaz definitely made an impression as a medical professional who has dedicated himself to being the best in his field on every level.
Everyone working at the office, front and back, are exceptionally caring and professional, and the office itself is relaxing and serene. Overall such a great experience, definitely go here if you want the job done right the first time.

I have been going to Dr. Elbaz for over 15 years since around 1998. My mother has gone to him for 20 years. My father and brother have been going to him for a comparable period.
We all love Dr. Elbaz because he is the absolute best in his field. He also treats you with utmost respect and truly cares for patients. I know most people dwell on going to the dentist. However, I look forward to going. The office is beautiful and with serene music playing in the background to calm your nerves. Office staff are the friendliest people in Beverly Hills.
Every six months, I go for a cleaning. Annie, my preferred hygienist who works at the office, also has a great attitude about cleaning your teeth meticulously and makes the experience actually quite enjoyable with great conversation sometimes. I always get a great feeling when Dr. Elbaz says my teeth and gums look good.
Recently, I had gum grafting performed by Dr. Elbaz. The procedure was flawlessly executed helping to save my tooth from eventually falling out. In fact, one cannot discern any difference where the work was performed with the rest of the mouth. If I ever require assistance with my teeth or gums, Dr. Elbaz will always be my first go to expert to ensure absolute highest quality advice and work.

2^nd Update… from 2 stars to 5!
I accepted Dr Elbaz’s invite to come back and let him personally clean my teeth and it was the best deep cleaning with the less pain and discomfort I’ve ever had. This Dr. really knows his stuff and his staff his great especially his assistant Risa (sp). Most of us going to a Periodontist know the proper way to brush and maintain or teeth and gums-​right? I learned even more from Dr. Elbaz. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a kind, gentle (but assertive!), knowledgeable Dr. that is keeping up with the latest in dental periodontal care.

I’m updating my review from below.
Yea, I get that Dr. E is expensive-​he leases an office in BH-​so OK.
But when he found out about my review below and that I was so dissatisfied with my cleaning, he personally called me to apologize and offer a complimentary cleaning done by him. Let me add «sincere» to the list of qualities below. You can tell that he genuinely cares!
First Post
I agree that Dr Elbaz is a caring, patient, gentle, knowledgeable man but I can’t get over the prices! I needed full mouth x-​rays and a night guard and after calling around the average price for x-​rays was $ 80-​$ 125. This office quoted me $ 250. The cost of a night guard ranged from $ 350-​$ 500. This office quoted me a whopping $ 800 and the receptionist had the gall to tell me what a great price that was. I only had a cleaning and an exam on my visit but it was the wort cleaning I ever remember having in a periodontists office (which are usually more thorough than a dentist visit.) The hygienist probed my gums to record pocket depth (those of you familiar with this know it is uncomfortable if not downright painful) and a few minutes later Dr Elbaz performed a full mouth probe on me again.
I was not happy.

I wish I could give Dr. Elbaz more stars.
I have been using Unilocal for years, and occasionally wanted to sign up to add a review myself, but it’s Dr. Elbaz’s excellent service, care, and kindness (along with his sweet team) that finally made me write my first review!
I found Dr. Elbaz on Unilocal when I was looking for a second opinion regarding gum surgery that I had needed for several months for gum recession on three teeth. Wasn’t in love with the periodontist my dentist rec’d, so found Dr. Elbaz on Unilocal.
Immediately fell in love with his office, staff, and the care and compassion he puts into all of his work. They discounted my surgery price as my work benefits hadn’t kicked in, and kindly walked me through how the surgery would go. I have never had surgery in my life, but a very high standard and precedent has been set by Dr. Elbaz! I was so comfortable; watched a movie with wireless headphones while the surgery was performed, and never felt a thing! I was continually asked how I was doing, and they constantly ensured my comfort.
Since my painless, totally easy and comfortable procedure, I have had quite a few follow-​up appointments. Dr. Elbaz and his associates kept in close after my procedure to make sure everything was going well, and all of my follow-​up appointments — to ensure that everything goes perfectly and this never happens again, also that my mouth looks great — have been included in my initial surgery fee. Additionally, I got a thorough teeth cleaning following the surgery for that Pamela (the sweetest!) made sure was covered by my dental insurance.
The kindest doctor ever — I wish he specialized in more than gums!
