Tour Ramin, DDS

Please note that they are NOT open on Tuesdays and Thursdays

The assistant and dentist are nice people. Unfortunately the office is poorly run. I had a cleaning and exam and was in the office for around 3 hours. The assistant left several times during my cleaning and exam to answer the telephone. I saw the dentist for maybe 5 minutes, he seemed nice even though the first thing he did was attempt to sell me teeth whitening. I had to cancel my followup appointment and haven’t been able to get in touch with them since to make a new one.

Dr. is really great. Teresa is super nice. And office is so clean. Overall great experince!

This dental office is great. My kids insurance company pre-​selected them, but it totally worked out. The exterior is pretty unassuming, insideyoull find a clean office, a sweet (&diligent) office admin asst./hygienest (sp?) and good dentist. What else do you want? Kiddo had a couple cavities and was super annoying to staff, but they handled it. We will be back.

Nobody likes going to the dentist, but since we have to, I’m glad I went here!
First of all, the receptionist/​hygienist Teresa is the best. She is so nice and knowledgeable; really excellent at her job.
Dr Tour is very friendly as well. Having such a relaxed, patient dentist put me as much at ease as I could be considering someone was digging around in my mouth.
I only had a cleaning and a filling/​cavity taken care of, but both procedures were quick and easy (luckily).
Don’t be put off by the location. His office is in a converted house and it isn’t the cutest neighborhood, but he has parking behind the building. And the service is worth it.

Dr tour know what he is doing and make you feel really comfortable I will recommend him to everyone.

I had a review this dentist and I guess it got flagged by the dentist office, like I had thought Unilocal is fake and it’s for the bussiness benefit only, I was describing my experience with what had happened and if the dentist felt it was not real he should not worried about it, but I guess it’s true and they don’t want customers to realize the truth, shame on Unilocal for having no ethics and sticking with an owner that disrespect their customers and not letting consumers put the truth about bussiness, I guess buying ads from Unilocal really helps.

Teresa his assistant is a real sweet heart… will call a day before to remind your appointment.
Doc Ramin is really friendly, he even remembers your conversation the last time you went there!!! Now that’s personal!

Dr. Tour is the best dentist ever!!! He does great work and is cognizant of costs and will never say you need work done when you don’t need it! I’ve been his first client many years ago and I don’t trust my beautiful teeth with anyone else!!! I’ve even got my hubby and kids here too! We love him!!!

First of all, I do think the guy is a good dentist and he was extremely nice about giving me all the novocaine I needed to get through the pain of having three cavities filled at once. He seemed very compassionate, and I would go back because of that alone.
The negatives are: it took absolutely forever and the exam rooms are not exam rooms at all — it’s basically one open floor and you can see and hear other patients as they’re getting their work done. And the doctor and hygienist have business conversations/​discussions out in the open where patients can hear them because… where else would they go? Also, the neighborhood is not great and the office itself is protected by a tall fence and barbed wire. It’s across from the Smog Cutter, if you know where that is.
My appointment was at 9 AM. I left at 12:45 PM. Seriously. Now, I had come in for a cleaning and they found three cavities, which I got filled in the same visit, which I realize is a convenience and I am grateful for that. But, I went in at 9, sat in the chair by 9:20… and they didn’t even start the CLEANING until 10:30. So even if I had had no cavities, I don’t think I would have left until after 11.
The cleaning was not very thorough and they didn’t floss. I have never been to a dentist in LA before — the last one I went to was in Upstate NY — but they take their time with the cleaning and then floss and then do fluoride treatments (which, I checked, should have been covered by my insurance).
So in summary, from a customer service standpoint… pretty awful. The hygienist and receptionist was nice, don’t get me wrong, but this place isn’t the setting for a real dental practice and they’re seriously under-​manned. The dentistry… good to great.

Dr. Tour is the best. I’ve been going to him for 7 years and every experience has been a good one. He’s very gentle and answers all my questions. He is always willing to negotiate his costs too, which is great, since I no longer have dental insurance. Every other dentist I saw in California told me I had multiple cavities and that I needed veneers. Dr. Tour works honestly and «conservatively» as he put it. Whatever he calls it, it works for me!

great doc, reasonable prices, interesting guy, clean office, know’s what he’s doing. Period

Wow!!! Where do I begin? I decided to go to Dr Tour because a friend of mine recommended him to me. Boy, was I happy… one of the best doctors I’ve been to in years! I have had problems with my teeth for ages now, and I find that every doctor I go to either charges me a fortune, is absolutely rude, or doesn’t even find the root of the problem. Not in this case. With Dr. Tour, I was amazingly pleased. When I booked the appointment, the receptionist was so kind and was able to accommodate me at the time that I wanted. When I arrived there, the office was very clean and beautiful. In fact, I barely waited 5 minutes before the doctor came and saw me (other doctors usually make me wait for hours!!) He took a look at my teeth and with his knowledge and experience knew what was wrong. He did root canals and fixed other minor issues. He also whitened my teeth using a new treatment that is far less detrimental to the tooth enamel than treatments of other doctors. His prices are completely reasonable and affordable. He made me feel so comfortable during the whole visit!!! I honestly recommend him to anyone in need of a dentist visit. Dr Ramin Tour is definitely the to Go-​T0 specialist for teeth!!!

Closest dentist that took my insurance. Seemed fine for first 2.5 years if a little rushed, but hey — he’s open on Saturdays. Last time I went in, I mentioned that I was worried about gum recession and told him my grandfather (who’s 85!) has some gum issues.
He pokes me for a second and says i need special gum treatments that are «probably not covered» by my insurance. I respond with «can I get a routine cleaning and have you write down the special treatments so I can talk the insurance company about it?» at which point he says the ADA would revoke his right to practice if he gave me a routine cleaning since I have «gum disease». I walked out.
Went to Wilshire Center Dental where they assured me i have normal gum recession for my age and told me to be careful not to overbrush and keep up flossing daily. Got a very thorough cleaning, x-​ray, and check-​up — everything covered by insurance.
