Impressive Dental

I had a great experience at Impressive Dental, my first visit made a great impression, i hadn’t been to a dentist in awhile and was pretty scared, but Dr Kalra and his staff made me feel good and comfortable, i ended up needing a Deep cleaning so i came back 2 more times, 1 for each side of my mouth and both times all the staff were great, definitely recommend this dentistry

Worst place ever! Had an appointment to get my 4 wisdom teeth extracted by an «oral surgeon» but once I was in the chair with local anesthesia and the «surgeon» had made the incision he told me he couldn’t perform the surgery because he did not have the tools! I was sent home with no antibiotics or pain medication. Impressive dental did not go over the risks of the wisdom teeth removal either and neither did their «surgeon». I rushed to real oral surgeon’s office (Dr.Cedeño at Los Angeles Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center) he was able to give me antibiotics and pain medication and a week later performed my teeth extractions with no complications nor excuses! Please avoid this place! It maybe inexpensive but is it really worth the risk?

We went there to use our HMO dental plan!
Eeh! To extract the tooth, almost free but to get a root canal pay $$$ amount!
And All **ALL** Dentists thrive by creating fear factor, if you dont do it today, it might be late. It could get worse… blah blah blah!
To me they said I had pinkish gums had to see periodontist, would send
a referrel. Never got one.
The estimated cost was in $$$ range!
Guess what! We researched online, got a water jet to rid ourselves of any plaque problem! In less than $ 50, I could get rid of tooth problem.
Dentists! Never seen any who says, ¨oh dont you worry. ¨ They want you to worry so you pay them or the insurance pays them.

I went the to get a couple fillings and a crown and they did an excellent job. Plus they have good services and affordable prices. ~Alvarez

I think the term «ghetto» neighborhood is definitely a subjective thing. I happen to live over here in what the other reviewer called the ghetto. The dentist office I saw had some recent renovations, probably to improve the look of the office. I personally am less concerned about how dental offices look and more concerned about the quality of dental work. I have been to plenty of fancy dentist offices that provided me with mediocre dental work and lots of pain. I have been to Dr. Kalra twice. The first time ever for a cleaning and today I went back to get a cavity filled and a wisdom tooth pulled. The office staff was friendly and prompt. They explained to me exactly what my insurance covered for each procedure and how much the out of pocket cost would be. I have never had a provider do that accurately before. What I was charged was exactly what they told me I would be charged. And, I associate dentists with pain. Dr. Kalra did an excellent job today. I did not feel my filling or extraction at all. I noticed that all the negative reviews are from a while ago… I think it’s safe to say that this «ghetto» office has improved.

Dr. Karla is amazing! I had 3 crowns redone and they look awesome. He was honest, delicate and genuine. I’m so happy. A plus is the price, unbelievable. I got a few quotes and this was the best price. I love the new décor as well. Beautiful office and a friendly staff. By the way I drive from Orange County! Worth the trip. Thank you Impressive Dental for helping me smile with confidence.

Small. Dirty. And completely unimpressive. I’d zero-​star it if I could.
Went in for some work last September because I suspected I had few cavities. I was right. The dentist drilled into a molar while the assistant-​slash-​receptionist stood by to watch. My hands were gripping the arms of the chair and the dentist thought it was funny! I felt like he was a Mad Scientist and I was a bunny.
When I checked the work, the dentist’d drilled a new shape in my molar — it was now pointy — and barely covered it with the filling material; it didn’t even fill the void removed by the drill.
Dissatisfied and frankly scared, I tried another dentist the next week, and found out the X-​ray at the Impressive missed a HUGE hole in one tooth. I mean… really?
Needless to say, I transfered dentists. But not soon enough. Because the work they did on that *one molar 4 months ago now aches like the dickens and is keeping me up at night. Which is a good time to write a review of the worst dental office I’ve ever been to.
Sigh. Shoulda known, right? Any place that has to tell you how great it is probably isn’t.

Wouldn’t you know that my first Unilocal review would be of someplace to steer clear of. Personally, I don’t quite have the same rah-​rah experiences. Unlike a lot of you, every time I try something new, it tends to be a dud.
Personally, I think these reviews might be more valuable anyway.
In this case, I have my dental HMO to blame. They sent me to this dentist in the ghetto. Scary neighborhood. The office isn’t any better. A truly run down, ramshackle place. Should have known, that’s 1435 SOUTH Vermont after all.
The service isn’t any better. In fact, it’s probably worse. Ouch that hurts. Ouch again. Ouch!!! No response.
Oooh glad that’s over with.
And then, the obligatory. .. .
would you like drilling with that cleaning? We can do it for a low-​low price. Won’t you be tempted? I’d wait to let you know if that one was a lie, but I won’t be going back regardless and neither should you.
Stay away!!!
