Family Dentistry

I really like this dental office. The staff is always professional and courteous. We have been patients here for many years, and we don't normally mind coming to the dentist for routine care. (No one looks forward to a root canal ). Dr. Yepiz is so gentle that you may find yourself dozing off while having a filling done (without anesthesia). If you are looking for a caring dental office in the Gardena area check them out.

Update - Dr B did my grandmothers dentures and gave her life back. She's going out to eat, smiling,…read morespending time with friends. Dr B rebuilt her confidence and gave her a life again. Dr B has taken care of me and my smile since 2016. I have referred countless family and friends to his practice and we all love him. My aunt in particular has a fear of dentists and Dr B makes her feel safe and comfortable every visit. The staff is friendly, professional, and kind. The office is gorgeous and the state of the art equipment they use makes X-rays and scans easy and comfortable.

I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this office today. Two days ago, I called to…read moreschedule an appointment specifically for a chipped tooth. However, upon arrival, the receptionist informed me that I was booked for an extraction and replacement instead. When I explained that this was incorrect, she dismissed my concern and simply stated that the doctor would decide what I needed. Despite arriving on time, I waited nearly two hours past my scheduled appointment. Feeling completely unvalued, I eventually notified the staff that I was leaving. I have been a patient at this dentist offices for about five years, tolerating previous poor experiences solely due to the convenient location. It is clear they are now overbooking appointments to prioritize profit over patient care, and they no longer show basic concern for their clients' time or well-being. I will not be returning and cannot recommend this practice.

This place is awesome. Especially when you want your child to go somewhere and they're afraid of…read morethe dentist both of my daughters have had traumatic experiences with other dentist office. But they love this place and if your child has an issue they're willing to give them laughing gas to keep them calm while they're working on their teeth. My oldest daughter had her weapon teeth pulled. My oldest daughter had her breaker done. My younger daughter is getting dental work done today. She loves his face. If you have children. I'll tell you that this is the place to go. They love and cater to your child. To the point that your child wants to come here when her appointment come up. They also have an adult office that are just as good.

I had a consultation with Dr. Palacious today regarding my wisdom teeth, and unfortunately the…read morequality of care was extremely disappointing. I waited about 1.5 hours, which I was understanding about, but for the actual consultation to feel like it lasted barely a minute was unacceptable. She spoke extremely fast, didn't examine my mouth/teeth, and didn't really explain a treatment plan specific to ME. It felt very rushed and more like I was being generalized with every other patient instead of actually being evaluated. When you're trusting someone to perform surgery, making the patient feel informed and comfortable is so important. I definitely would not feel comfortable having surgery with this surgeon after this experience. The front desk staff were great...my concerns are strictly with the quality of care I received during the consultation from the doctor. 0/10

I called same day & was scheduled to come in Thursday, 9/24/26 - AMAZING because most offices…read moreschedule weeks out! I initially called because I needed crowns re-evaluated after searching for a better dentist, that values quality, patients and their care. I've been getting the shorter end of the stick the last 2 years from a few dental offices I trusted. Needless to say, I was able to get a FULL MOUTH XRAY (done exceptionally quick & precise) THE BEST IVE EVER EXPERIENCED! I also met with Dr. Steve Hiroshige D.D.S., He was so warm, welcoming and knowledgeable! He has 34 years experience in dental and TRULY an amazing Human being & Professional. He listened to all my concerns and questions. He didn't try to upsell me nor had any questionable motives. I felt valued, respected & cared for I have NEVER left a Dental Office Excited & Happy for upcoming dental work lol. I have officially made this office My Home Office for ALL Dental work & was able to schedule an appointment 10/2/26 at 9am. Humbly grateful. Please give Dr. Steve a try!

I just left Dr. Hiroshige and his staff and I can honestly say they are 5 stars all the way. I…read morefound him through Yelp and I knew I was in the right place when I saw all the USC paraphernalia all over the office. I knew immediately I was in good hands. Dr. Hiroshige is the dentist to go to in Gardena and the South Bay!!!!!! Parking is super convenient and he has all the latest technology. The XRay tech was super nice and made sure I was comfortable with my X Rays. They took both an XRay and a 3D photo of my bite. Luckily I had no cavities but i needed a very deep cleaning! Dr. Grace worked on my teeth for a good hour. She took her time and was plugging that tartar away from my teeth. Im so grateful for her and her expertise! After the cleaning Dr. Stephen explained my crowded teeth and the consequences if it was not fixed. I took the advice and am getting them corrected. Overall super happy I found a new dentist!
