Scripps Family & Cosmetic Dentistry

Today was my first time coming and I will always come back! They are so sweet and actually want to get to know you as a person. They are gentle with the tools and they always make sure you are comfortable! Christine is SOOO AMAZING! The doctor is also very funny! Also very clean!

My sister referred me to Dr. Tourian and I couldn’t be happier with the care and service I receive. Everyone is so inviting and they genuinely care about their patients. I hated going to the dentist and I’ve had really bad experiences in the past, but they do everything possible to save your teeth. Dr. Tourian is the best dentist I’ve ever been to.

My wife has been coming here for over 12 years. Even after moving to Riverside, she still comes here. She introduced me to this place several years back and I love it. Dr. Tourian, Christine and the rest of the staff are extremely nice and everything is so relaxed. I’ll admit I do not like dentists. I love coming here. I will not go anywhere else.

Having been a patient of Scripps Family & Cosmetic Dentistry for a few years, my experience has been great. Dr. Tourian is the most gentle caring dentist I have ever known, he is an experienced professional in both dental and cosmetic dentistry. I would not expect anything less from a New York University Medical School graduate. Dr Tourian’s dental Hygienist Christine is detailed focused on your needs and just a kind loving soul. The front office and dental assistants are awesome, lets face it nobody likes to go to a dentist but when they make you feel liked your in your own living room you know your in the right place.

Went for my first cleaning at this place and they were very friendly. If you don’t like the dentist don’t worry about this place I was in and out on a quickness. Staff was very knowledgeable and answered all the questions that I had. Great place to go just for yourself of even for family.

A coworker told me of Scripps Family & Cosmetic Dentistry about 10 years ago when I broke my wisdom tooth. I haven’t been to the dentist for years even though I’ve had dental insurance all that time. Dr. Tourain pulled my broken wisdom tooth and asked if I wanted the other done as well. I agreed and everything was perfect. As I was there he told me that I had very bad periodontal disease and that I should get a deep cleaning. I did as he recommended and been going to see Christine on a regular basis. Since then I’ve only had one cavity, my periodontal disease is gone, and I have a set of perfect teeth I can call my own. Now as I’m older, I see were their concerns was much appreciated as my friends are starting to loose there own teeth due to lack of normal checkups and routine cleanings.
As for those of you who think that they are here for just $$$. I’ve been without dental insurance for the past few years. They try their best to fit me in a budget that I can afford, which is $ much.

I’ve been going here for three years. And never had an issue. Easy painless cleaning. Front office is always on top of things. Fun loving staff here. My whole family goes here :) you should too

My family has been going to Dr. Tourin for several years. I’ve recently changed Dentist which I have personal seen for over 15 years, in hopes of discovering a different approach to maintaining my dental hygiene. Dr. Tourin appears to be one of the best in his field in terms of going above and beyond, thinking outside the box and providing the best dental care for his patients. Furthermore, his staff is always available to assist with all aspects, whether it’s assistance with last minute appointments or making you comfortable in the chair, Scripps Family & Cosmetic Dentistry is the Benchmark for other Dentistry offices to follow.

Dr. Tourian is really the best dentist I’ve ever had. He is so friendly and thoughtful for his patient’s well being and comfort. He is also very responsive to dental emergencies and even came in on a Sunday to do a root canal before I had to travel. Very dedicated! The staff is really great too.

The team is incredible, simply put! Always willing to accommodate our busy schedules (my wife and I both use Scripps Family), and practicing world class bedside manner, it has been our best dentistry experience in San Diego.

I love going to the dentist! It’s true! Dr. Tourian and his wonderful staff are top notch! Dr. Tourian always makes me feel at ease and is very good at explaining the treatment that is necessary. My dental hygienist Christine is such a nice, nice person. The front desk staff is incredible personable as well. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted warmly with big, friendly smiles.
I’ve been visiting this office for over 5 years now and even after just a a couple of visits, I felt like I Dr. Tourian and his staff knew me well. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Scripps Family and Cosmetic Dentistry.
*I’m not sure why it says I’m from Denver in my profile. I live in San Diego, just a few miles away from this dentist office.

This dental office really cares about me. Christine is a very caring hygienist and makes my bi-​yearly check ups something to look forward to! I trust Dr. Tourian!

Dr. Torian is the absolute best dentist there has ever existed! He is very professional and caring at the same time. His office staff are also very helpful. The office is clean and they perform every procedure with providing a lot of information, care, wisdom, and full attention. It makes your life so much easier to have a perfect dentist.

I’ve been coming to Dr. Tourian’s office for many many years and I have been very happy. Frankly, I have actually wanted to go to a different dentist because I’ve moved and the commute to his office is further than I would like. Unfortunately they do such a great job I can’t get myself to leave! Christy, the hygienist has a spectacular memory — Tracy is very knowledgeable in the billing area and has always done a great job. Dr. Tourian does a great job in my opinion of staying on top of current technology and being an unbiased dentist. He has treated me like a quality client for many years, providing me options on my treatment, making his own recommendation, but ultimately letting me decide. And for that reason, I must suffer the commute — a skilled dentist with good ethics can be hard to find. Thank you guys!

The best dental office in San Diego! All the staff are inviting, always smiling and amazing. Doctor Tourian is a very skilled dentist, does amazing work!

My family and I have been a patient here for 8 years, and Dr. Tourian and his staff have continued to take great care of us. I have also referred several people here that love Scripss Family & Cosmetic Dentistry as well. I continue to refer anyone I know that needs a dentist here.
As I have mentioned in my previous review, Dr. Tourian always makes sure to check on how his patients are doing. I actually look forward to going my semi-​annual cleaning because everyone here is so sweet and welcoming. Christine, the dental hygienist is one of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet. She is very gentle when she cleans your teeth. I always leave this office with a happy (& clean) smile: D.
I also have to disagree with some of the negative reviews that other Unilocalers have posted. I have never in the past 8 years felt that this office only wants your money. I have never felt pushed to do any procedures, anyone can recommend procedures for you, but no one is forcing you to get them done. My mom got some procedures done to prepare for her implants and they were able to put her on a payment plan, and her dental implants have improved her teeth a lot.
So my tip to everyone is just to work through all the detail costs of your procedure before you get them done and I’m sure the staff will be more than happy to work something out with you.

I have been coming to Scripps Family dentistry for years and they treat me great every-​time, staff is very helpful always keep my teeth super healthy and like the text appointment reminders. I would recommend them for anyone that is looking to keep a nice smile:)

Dr. Tourian is a caring and compassionate dentist. He has always been great with my friends and family!

I’ve had my dentist since I was 3 years old and although I absolutely love and trust him, he’s all the way in LA and I needed someone in SD. My teeth were feeling sensitive and I didn’t want to drive all the way to LA so I came to Dr. Tourian who came highly recommended by a co-​worker. After several x-​rays, he said I didn’t have any new cavities but NINE of my old cavities needed to be refilled. My insurance only covered so much and I would still have to pay around $ 700 out of pocket for this entire procedure. He had me totally freaked out so I ran back to my dentist all the way in LA to get a second opinion. What do you know? My old fillings are fine and my teeth are feeling sensitive because of all the grinding in my sleep. He made me a mouth guard to wear at night and I was well on my way.
I was REALLY hoping Dr. Tourian would be the one I could settle with in San Diego but the search continues…

I have been seeing Dr. Tourian now for several years and he is the only dentist I completely trust. I have chronic problems with my teeth due an autoimmune disorder; I also have a great deal of dental anxiety from bad dentistry performed when I was very young.
Dr. Tourian and his entire staff are very understanding and reassuring throughout the whole process. They thoroughly present all options with procedures & financing. I cannot recommend him enough!
