Jeff Berlin, DDS, MS

Recently had a root canal on my front tooth done with Dr. Berlin. Office staff was ok.
I have had lots of dental work done. He was so gentle, injections were pain free. Anesthetic lasted through the entire procedure. He know what he is doing, my procedure was PAIN FREE. I was totally suprised to get a call later in the evening from Dr. Berlin to see how I was feeling. Real professional man.
Would recommend Dr. Berlin without hesitation.

Amazing dentist. I just had two root canals done by him and he was very gentle and calming and professional. He kept checking if I was ok and would explain what he was doing which was good. They have a tv in each room which is a good distraction. He works fast and is very good at what he does. I also liked that he called me in the evening to check up on me.

Incredibly kind and professional from the moment you walk in the office. These people really know what they are doing and make you feel relaxed and never keep you waiting. Dr. Berlin himself is the very best. I’ve had two root canals over the years and both were about as painless as you can imagine. Well — I’ll make it easy for you to imagine – I napped through both of them. Dr. Berlin’s staff explains exactly what your pain level might be following the root canal and they make themselves available in case you find yourself in pain (I didn’t – but it was nice to know). Finally — only a couple of hours after the appointment, Dr. Berlin called my home to ask if I was doing okay. This is how Doctors and doctors offices used to be. I can’t recommend Dr. Jeff Berlin highly enough.

I visited Advanced Endodontics in September of 2014 and received a root canal from Dr. Megan Rustad. The procedure itself could not have been better, Dr. Rustad was a very pleasant woman and the procedure itself was quick and painless — 2 separate visits over the course of a month.

A dentist that calls you up at the end of the day to see how you’re doing after a root canal? Amazing! I was a bundle of nerves going in for this procedure. Dr. Berlin made it painless … no joke, absolutely painless. Not just a fluke. I had another root canal a couple weeks later … again, no pain. He also called later that day to check on how I was doing. Seriously, if you need an Endodontist that goes above and beyond, schedule an appointment with Dr. Berlin. And brush your teeth, damnit! Don’t be like me and end up with two root canals in one month.

I had a very difficult root canal done by Dr. Berlin two weeks ago. I don’t open my mouth wider than a baby and this was a molar next to the wisdom tooth. Stressful no doubt. Actually it was the second time I had to do this kind of tricky root canal with Dr. Berlin. I did my first one two years ago. Both time the procedures lasted about two hours and I was put on IV sedation. I woke up after the root canal was done and was able to walk an hour later. I felt a bit weird for a few days due to the medication. Other than that, the whole thing did not add any extra stress on me. The next day when I woke up, I barely felt any jaw/​gum/​muscles sore, so I was convinced that Dr. Berlin was very gentle on me even when I was unconscious and would not feel the pain. I truly appreciate this part of my experience with him.
Here comes the funny part – when I was checking that tooth, one of his dental assistants got impatient with me about not being able to put an x-​ray chip into my mouth. When I refused to let her keep poking things into my mouth, she kind of stormed out of the room. A minute later Dr. Berlin walked in and it took him a few different tries to finally figure out how to put that x-​ray chip in. He is very calm and patient with me. Every time I saw him, he was professional, positive, and pleasant. Often he called and left voice messages with medical information. His office lady only called when it’s about appointment schedules and that kind of things. Now I basically feel reassured that if this kind of root canal needs to be done again, I can always go back to Dr. Berlin – this makes my life in general so much less stressful.
(BTW the anesthesiologist he worked with is Dr. Mark Torbiner. I had very good experiences with him. This proved again my general experiences with doctors: great doctors lead to great doctors. You just need to know a really good one in the field first and make sure to always ask for referrals.)

Awesome Endodontist! No pain at all and he kept checking in with me during the procedure to make sure everything was OK. My partner went to him and also had a great experience. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Berlin is great! So kind and personable and nice. Didn’t make me feel ridiculous for being scared. I had to have not one but two root canals, and both of them were way quicker and easier and less traumatizing than getting a crown. Everyone else on the staff is just as nice as Dr. Berlin: the front desk, the assistants. It’s a really well-​run office — minimal waiting, easy appointments.

Well as we know it is never fun going to the dentist; however, it is needed and if I have to go this is the guy I want working on me. In the past I have noticed that Dentists will push you for cleanings up-​charges etc. It was such a pleasant experience meeting Dr. Berlin. I was refereed to him when I was told I may need a root canal. He put me through several tests all the while being very patient and explaining everything in detail before letting me know the verdict was that I did not need a root canal. Well Dr. Berlin, If I do in the future you can be sure that you will be my Doctor. I truly appreciate your honesty.

I had my second visit today with Dr. Berlin, the last of 2 root canals. The very mention of that procedure sends people up a wall because it’s not typically a pleasant experience. I am stupefied by how pleasant he and his office made both my visits. Dr. Berlin’s staff is punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and warm. Dr. Berlin himself is SO good at his job. No pain from start to now, 10 hours later. His bedside manner is out of this world, and I can’t say how important I feel that is, especially with such a scary procedure. Sometimes just an empathetic medical professional is enough, but with this group, you receive it all and then some. Truly, if you find you’re in the market for an endodontist, do yourself a favor and see this guy.

Dr. Berlin and his staff were amazing during my dental emergency. I have met very few doctors who are this smart and kind. Dr. Berlin figured out what the issue was with my sore tooth and fixed it without having to do a full root canal. The procedure was painless and I am no longer in pain. Thank you Dr. Berlin, Faith and each of the staff members who were so helpful and kind to me. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Berlin.

Dentist offices can be a scary scary place, but this place is different. It’s highly efficient, painless, professional, and not over priced.
I’ve been to the office several times and each time I was seen immediately. The receptionist is awesome and will know immediately what you need from looking at your medical records and will call you if an earlier appointment opens up.
Dr. Berlin had to do two retreatment root canals since my last dentist did such a crappy job. He will make sure you are well taken care of, checking in every 5 minutes or so to make sure you are ok.
Oh and they have a single shot coffee maker in the office that I always try and drink when I leave the office with chipmunk numb cheeks. Just try and be careful not to pour the coffee everywhere except into your mouth like I did. :)

Not surprised to see several five-​star reviews here for Dr. Berlin and his staff.
I was referred as an emergency patient and was in an overwhelming amount of pain. Dr Berlin saw me that same day. He recognized my distress, and when he looked me in the eye and shook my hand I knew he sincerely cared about me.
In fact, after both parts of the root canal, Dr Berlin called me personally to see how I was doing. He’s just thoroughly awesome.
The building is easy to find and has a pharmacy downstairs, which I always like. Everyone in the office (stocked with lovely Midcentury Modern architecture books) was warm, friendly, and professional. There’s even two-​hour metered street parking!
Much more lucid today, I returned to complete the root canal treatment and was again pleasantly surprised by how noticeably BETTER this office is than nearly any other I’ve been in. They are ready for you at the time of your appointment, and explain all the complexities of your insurance beautifully.
I only wish Dr. Berlin weren’t already married — my best girlfriend is single!

$ 300 consulting fee for a 15 minute visit? His office specifically said they wouldnt charge me. Received a notice from my insurance saying they made a claim.
Bogus.

I don’t gamble when it comes to my teeth. I just moved to LA and did quite a bit of research to find the right dental care. I ended up being referred to Dr. Berlin through an ex who went to him to get a bad procedure fixed.
Dr.Berlin and his staff are amazing. He’s super helpful and an overall wonderful person to be around. There’s an ease in the air and a confident professional demeanor. There was not a second that went by where I questioned whether I was in good hands, and surely I was. The root canal felt super simple actually. At first glance it the x-​rays showed the cavity had not hit the nerve yet, so we tried to avoid a root canal and he referred me to Dr. Brand who is in the same building and also super amazing.
Long story short it was my first root canal and way more simple and painless than i ever imagined. Dr. Berlin did an incredible job. Perfection. No swelling, no pain, a little tired but that’s because my mouth was drilled for two days. Given the amount of work that was done I am pretty surprised by how «normal» i feel. Berlin really loves what he does. It’s notable in his work and the way he interacts. Five stars + all around.

There is a good reason why Dr. Berlin has 30 five star reviews. It is because that level of a dental (endodontal) experience accurately describes what you can expect from Dr. Berlin. No one wants to get a root canal, but if you do, this is where you should go — no question. Unfortunately I have had enough root canals to know the difference in quality, comfort, ease, professionalism and the general sense of being cared for. And those experiences are what you will get. No arrogance, no «just trust me», no «you are being too sensitive», but rather a 50-​minute painless experience and a precise and accurate explanation of what to expect for the following two days. Could you ask for anything more?

I don’t think anyone would describe a root canal as a «fun process» but Dr. Berlin makes it about as fun as it will ever get! I had ZERO pain… none! Not during or after… They numb you up really good so you don’t feel a thing… but the sounds? eek! I would bring earphones and listen to some good tunes, or you can watch tv… how fun!
Dr. Berlin and his staff are really nice… the office itself is clean and neat and you feel like you are in a place that knows what’s its doing! I hope I never have a root canal again, but if I do… I know where I will be going!

My dentist wanted a specialist to look at my Root Canal (redo) as it was over 20 years old and deep. He made room for me ASAP/​THAT DAY (today, since I live an hour away from Beverly Hills) and also gave me options like my other (wonderful) dentist.
I sat down, got an x-​ray and met with him in mere minutes! He started the 1^st half of the root canal immediately (after the office payment manager met with me regarding my insurance coverage)!
I was in and out, lickety-​split! 2 ½ hours later and I am no longer numb and I don’t have any pain, soreness or swelling like they warned me about! Seriously, ZIP!
If you are afraid of needles (I used to be) don’t be afraid of Dr. Berlin. His sparkling eyes and very soft touch with the needle will make you wonder if/​when he ever numbed you at all!
I will go back in about 2 weeks to ‘finish’ the procedure, but instead of ‘fearing’ a root canal, I feel at complete ease. (It’s the drivers and the parking in Beverly Hills that I worry about!) :-D

Oh my GOODNESS… Everyone was so scared for me… ROOT CANAL WTF?!
Well, chill out everyone… Dr. Berlin was kind, fast, caring, attentive and professional!
I didn’t feel a thing!!! And I can’t take pain. After the numbing of the area wore off, I was back to eating as if nothing ever happened… No meds (but I did have them)
PAIN-​FREE… So easy… I can’t believe it!!!
I’m looking forward to going back for part 2. ;-)

Dr. Berlin is AWESOME!!! My regular dentist referred me to him because he specializes in root canals and has all the latest equipment, including a microscope to perform the procedure. Dr. Berlin is super charming, kind, sensitive (and very cute too).
During the root canal he explained everything he was doing and made sure I was in no pain or discomfort. He was done in about 45 minutes.
This was the comfortable and the most painless root canal I’ve ever had or anyone can ever have.
His staff are also very kind and sweet and professional.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Berlin. Highly recommended!
