Gabriel Aslanian, DDS, MD

I just got all 4 of my wisdoms tooth removed yesterday. It’s only the second day and I don’t have that much pain and very little swelling. Dr. Aslan isn’t is the best. I highly recommend this place.

Looking for a good dentist is a gamble, it’s like looking for a good honest mechanic. Yesterday I got my molars pulled and some extras here at the Valley Village office, he has two offices. No referrals this was a simple shot based on the good reviews on Unilocal.He’s very good at what he does, on point. His staff is amazing esp the nurses or assistants, she was so attentive that I almost fell in love with her, she’s very pretty, not sure if she was Armenian or Persian, very soft spoken and made sure that I was ok. Seriously, she was great and so was the whole experience. The office is clean and I was there in and out, I opted for local anesthesia because I’m a gangster like that. If you ever need a place to get some extractions done, this is it. It’s only been 24 hrs for me. So far, no pain no issues.

For me the 2 most important things in choosing an oral surgeon is skill and «bedside» manner, Dr Aslanian exceeded our expectation on both. He was kind and friendly and patient, AND he did an amazing job!
My 19 year old daughter had to have her wisdom teeth out. The problem is that she lives hundreds of miles away in a place where the nearest oral surgeon is 70 miles away, and who knows how good they are?
Dr. Aslanian was able to squeeze her in when she came home for Christmas. Her recovery was speedy and there was VERY minimal swelling.
He did not overdo the anesthesia so we didn’t get to make any of those funny videos you see on the internet! She woke up and just felt a little tired.
I wish there were more than 5 stars to rate him and his staff. They were all wonderful.

You guys, when I say I was «nervous» about getting my wisdom teeth out, it is the understatement of the century. I had no idea that I would be as nervous as I was about it, but when I got in the chair, I was actually crying. Dr. Aslanian even teased me that it was normal to be to nervous, but that I’m probably top three for Drama Queens! (It was a nice tease, it made me laugh!)
I had never had anesthesia before so my mind was obviously running wild about what could go wrong. He so calmly and nicely relaxed me with a teeny taste of anesthesia (I think), and then let me ask all my crazy questions before the sedation took over. I honestly don’t even remember falling asleep, but I remember waking up and basically feeling like nothing even happened. The nurse was also unbelievably sweet and I thank them for being so kind to this 26-​year-​old baby!
I also have to say I’m typically averse to even taking Advil, because I feel like my body is sensitive to medication and I just am weird about it, but the painkillers are great. I don’t feel loopy or overly exhausted, I just feel like the pain is being managed.
All in all, with the exception of my morning spaz attack, I had a great Friday off watching Netflix, eating ice cream, and putting a pack of frozen peas on my cheeks.
Thank you to Dr. Aslanian and his team! I’d recommend this practice to all.

Dr. Aslanian and his team are terrific ! I went in for a consultation after putting off my wisdom teeth extraction for so long and he quickly scheduled me for the following week. He made me feel comfortable as I was really nervous for the surgery. The offices are very neat and clean and the whole process was an overall good experience for me. Even though I wish to never have to have any oral surgeries again, in the future should I need one I know where to go.

After years of trying to find the perfect oral surgeon for my patients, I finally found Dr. Aslanian. I am extremely particular with whom I trust to treat my patients for specialty needs, and after many years, have picked just one of each specialty. Dr. Aslanian is the only oral surgeon I now trust. He has proven to our practice over and over that his clinical work is superb. My patients report back to me that his personality is light, funny and reassuring. I have seen patients recover from surgery with ease, which speaks volumes about his clinical skills (and I have comparisons of the opposite from others). When I had a suspicious lesion on my own lip, he saw me same day to put my mind at ease. Whenever my husband or I have a serious concern about one of our patients, Dr. Aslanian is always available to discuss our concerns, often after hours. He is skilled, kind and available. Everything we could ever ask for in an OS specialist. Our patients deserve the best; we believe we have found just that.

The entire staff here is wonderful. Dr. Aslanian made me feel at ease from beginning to end. He was willing to answer any questions I had and gave me multiple opportunities to ask anything that was on my mind. It bothers me when doctors make you feel rushed or as if they don’t care but with Dr. Aslanian that was certainly not the case. Even when scheduling the appointment for my actual procedure, the woman making my appointment was so kind and patient with me when I kept changing my mind about things.
I had 2 wisdom teeth removed. I had all of my options explained to me and was helped to make an informed decision about how I would want it done. I guess I’m lucky because the procedure was quick for me. His assistant explained all of my recovery information, and he even checked on me later on. It’s been a week and a half now and my recovery has been fine. I highly recommend Dr. Aslanian and his staff :)

I met with Dr. Aslanian on Monday to set up an appointment to have all four of my wisdom teeth removed and they had me in by today (Friday).
Up until meeting him, I had been SO nervous for the procedure. I definitely wanted to be put under because I feared the thought of conscious sedation (even though I’ve heard people love it) because I’m a serious baby about the dentist and didn’t want to feel a thing. On the other hand I was ALSO nervous to be put under as I’d never had anesthesia before.
Dr. Aslanian made me feel at ease during our meeting and I went into the procedure feeling 90% ready, though there was still some part of me that worried the sedation wouldn’t fully work & I’d be paralyzed but still feel everything, like in a horror movie. I told him that and he assured me everything would be a-​okay.
As he was giving me the anesthesia, my final thoughts were «okay, when is it going to kick in, when is it going to kick in…» And the next thing I know, a sweet woman was waking me up and putting me in a chair with a nice soft blanket and an ice pack comfortably wrapped around my head.
The painkillers they gave me made me pretty nauseous, so after taking two doses (4 hours apart) I decided to switch over to a hefty amount of Ibuprofen instead which did the trick. Ice on the cheeks 20 min on, 20 min off, to help the swelling (I’m barely swollen at all yet but they said it’ll reach its peak at 36 hours after surgery)
And the SWEETEST THING, which actually motivated me to write this review right now, was that I received a text from Dr. Aslanian this evening checking in on me to see how I was doing!!! He said if I have any questions or concerns to please call him. That seriously made my night.
The entire staff was friendly and accommodating too! FIVE STARS all around.

I have been a patient of Dr Aslanian for the past three years and had two major procedures performed, I am greatful for the excellent results I received on both occasions. The Dr. as well as the entire staff provide an excellent service.

I went I to have a flap of skin removed from the inside of my cheek. When I arrived I was greeted by the very kind office staff. They took me back right away and were all smiles the entire time.
Dr. Aslanian was very friendly and professional and explained everything to me including the pros and cons of the procedure. He was very careful and made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. He explained the after care necessary and then his staff followed me out and asked me if I had any questions and scheduled a follow up.
Then in the evening I received a text message from his office to make sure I was doing ok. I would definitely recommend Dr. Aslanian to my friends and family. Thank you Dr. Aslanian.

Let me start off by saying that I am a big baby… I am petrified of dentists and pain. I put off removing my wisdom teeth despite the recommendations of multiple dentists because I was that scared.
In comes Dr. Aslanian, he (and his amazing staff) put me at ease the moment I went in for a consultation. He knew my fear level and totally put me at ease, took the time to answer all my concerns and had one of his staff to call my insurance to handle everything which took a lot of the stress off of me. A few weeks later I got the call and the letter that luckily my insurance was covering everything including IV sedation, so of course I would be stupid to not get it done!
They told me not to eat after midnight the night before, so I was really good about that, morning of I was really nervous but looking forward to it at the same time because my wisdom teeth was already causing me some annoying pain (my mouth was too small for the amount of teeth that I had and it was causing all my other teeth to move forward). I sat in the chair, had the oxygen tube in my nose, Dr. Aslanian was joking around with me and told me to squeeze a rubber thing in my hand so that he can put the IV needle in, last thing I remember is that he asked me what I was doing that weekend and I said probably stay home and recover, watch Netflix and Hulu, he asked me which one was better and I was out like a light! I didn’t even remember answering him! LOL.
Next thing I know, I am being woken up and said that I was done! My husband said they were pretty fast, only took about an hour. They sent me home with an awesome ice pack on my face to reduce swelling, two bags of gauze, a plastic syringe to wash out the sockets, and meds and I was good even when I got home. I was tender and a bit sore but nothing unbearable, having my wisdom teeth was worse pain than having them taken out.
The best part? Later that night Dr. Aslanian himself texted me to see how I was doing, I could not ask for a better experience or a better oral surgeon. I think the sad part is not needing him anymore. Thank you Dr. Aslanian and staff!

I’ve been researching for awhile a good oral surgeon and narrowed it to Dr. Aslanian. This was one of the best decisions I could have made for myself. My wisdom tooth surgery was a smooth and painless process. I can’t thank or recommend Dr. Aslanian and his staff enough.

I had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted two weeks ago. I had a very good, fast, comfortable, pain free experience while getting them removed. I was very nervous to get this done, but Dr. Aslanian and all of the staff made me feel totally at ease with everything. Highly recommended.

I was referred to Dr. Aslanian last week when my endodontist was not able to save one of my molars that had previously been treated for a root canal. Long story short, the molar needed to be extracted and I found myself in one of Dr. Aslanian’s chairs. From the moment I entered his office, his staff was courteous and efficient. Within 5 minutes of filling out my paperwork, I was in the chair waiting for the doctor to arrive. Within two minutes of being in the chair, my tooth was numbed and the pain subsided. Dr. Aslanian was very personable, very caring and as funny as it is to say, he was very gentle with the extraction. I was patched up and out the door after about an hour and I was able to spend the rest of the afternoon doing errands, which given my pre-​treatment pain would have been an impossibility. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Aslanian and his staff, my experience with them was top notch and I would gladly refer them to anyone experiencing dental pain. I’m keeping their office on speed dial in case of any other dental emergencies!

Can’t believe Dr Aslanian doesn’t have more reviews. I was referred to him by Dr. Raffi Barsam (who is also very good), and had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted. Though he warned me that he’d be «pleasantly surprised» if I didn’t end up looking like a chipmunk, I had no swelling at all. I only had an allergic reaction to the injections they used to put me under, and was so nauseous afterward that I couldn’t move without vomiting. They wouldn’t let me leave the office until I could stand (which was about 2 hours after the procedure). Toward the end of the day the doctor himself called me on his cellphone to check on how I was doing (and advised me not to take the painkillers they had provided, which would add to the nausea). The next morning, by God’s grace, the nausea was completely gone, and there was only a faint aching around my jaws! :)

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Aslanian. I had put off getting my wisdom teeth out for 10 (!) years. Things had gotten to the point where I’d been told it was only going to get harder as I got older and I bit the bullet (no pun intended) and went to see Dr. Aslanian for a consultation. Within minutes he put completely at ease and instead of being scared to death of the procedure, I was actually kind of looking forward to it. Everything went very smoothly and my recovery was so much easier than I expected. A big thanks to Dr. Aslanian and his team!

I had all four wisdom teeth extracted a few weeks ago and everything went smoothly without any problems. Everyone in his office including him are all very nice. I had a wonderful experience and will go back to Dr. Aslanian if I need anything else done.

My tooth was killing me. Cold food/​drink, hot food/​drink, didn’t matter. Anything that touched my tooth was causing serious pain. It got so bad that in the middle of the day, i called 1−800-dentist and asked for a dentist near my office. Fortunately for me, i work in Beverly Hills, so I knew it was going to cost me. But I didn’t care, I needed to get this tooth looked at and fixed ASAP. I was sent to this fancy-​schmancy dental office on Wilshire. They were able to see me right away. Filled out some paperwork and the Dr. came in to see me. He looked in my mouth with some gadget and said we absolutely had to take an x-​ray, otherwise there is no way he can know whats going on for sure. That will be $ 90 please! OK, whatever, just find the problem and fix it. After the x-​ray he comes in and says I either have to do a route canal or extract the tooth all together and put in a replacement. Oh, and the costs? $ 3600 for the route canal and $ 3900 for the extraction. «We have simple financing.» he said. «here is the application.» Uh, no thanks. I’ll get a second opinion. Buh-​bye!
I asked a friend of mine if he knew anyone. He recommended Dr. Gabriel. Called his office and they were able to see me the very next day. Very friendly, polite and professional staff. I didn’t have to wait long at all before I was called in. Dr. Gabriel is a very cool guy. He’s younger than he looks actually. Hes about my age but he looks closer to 50. The office is clean, neat, bright, modern and I felt very relaxed and comfortable. Dr. G is very funny and very laid back. Not your typical, pretentious, arrogant Dr. We chatted a bit and i explained what was going on with my tooth. Did another x-​ray with him as well. i cant remember how much it cost but it was a hell of a lot less than $ 90! All it was, was a cavity. A simple, pesky, little cavity. Had it taken care of the next day at a dentist near my house and it hasn’t bothered me since. That Beverly Hills guy was ready to charge me almost $ 4K for a procedure i didn’t need. It’s good to know there are still Dr.‘s out there who run an honest, respectable, patient friendly practice like Dr. Gabriel. I will definitely go back for my next check up/​cleaning. I highly recommend.

For many years I have been referring my patients (including my dad) to Dr. Aslanian. I always received reviews about how funny he was, how he made them feel good about being there, and how the procedure was easier then expected. Two weeks ago I woke up at 3 am to my own tooth hurting, and it was now my turn to go to see Dr. Aslanian. I was a little nervous, but the minute I sat in his chair the doctor and his back assistant had me laughing. Everything my patients said about him was true. At the end, my tooth extraction was easy. I had an excellent experience. After my appointment I ran errands all day and felt fine. A big thank you to the doctor and his wonderful staff.
