Great people! Professional and helpful over the phone and willing to accommodate my schedule and needs.

I feel so incredibly grateful to have found The Dental Wellness Center with Dr. Iman. Every experience I've had here has been nothing short of wonderful. The whole team is professional, kind, and genuinely caring. Leanne is always so warm and helpful, and of course, I love getting to see Ludo the dog each time I visit- it makes the experience even brighter! Dr. Iman is truly exceptional and is incredibly knowledgeable. He takes the time to explain everything in such a clear and thoughtful way, making each appointment not only efficient and professional but also informative and educational. His kindness and patience always make me feel comfortable and cared for, and I leave every visit with complete trust in his work. I can't recommend Dr. Iman and The Dental Wellness Center enough- they go above and beyond in every way, and I'm so thankful to be their patient! read more

I'm so grateful that I found this dental office. My experience thus far has exceeded my expectations. I just had a bridge removed, and 24-hours later, I feel practically no soreness or pain. Dr. Iman's methods are much better than other offices that I've been to, and he actually has conversations at length about the issues, and wants to educate the patient to understand the decisions and procedures at hand. Julie, the dental assistant is also wonderful and Leanne the office manager is also great. I had a cleaning with the dental hygienist and it was really educational. She was also very knowledgeable and sensitive in her work. Dr. Iman has given me hope in dentists again, and I'm so grateful to have him and his team by my side as I go through my dental wellness journey. Thank you!! read more

Dental Wellness Center - General Dentistry Near Me - Long Beach, California

Dr. Iman has been my dentist for years starting in Newport Beach, then to his other place and now he's in this amazing facility in a really cute, old town bougie vibey part of Long Beach next to a big beautiful park I never knew existed. Anyways, like I said in my previous review of his previous facilities in OC, Dr. Iman is a fantastic, no-nonsense straight shooter that DOES NOT UPSELL. There's no going in for a routine exam or cleaning w no pain or problems and then being told that you miraculously had no idea thar you need a full set of implants or a triple root canal or whatever because you dentist needs to make his Ferrari payment the next day. Iman is great. But don't take my word for it. Ask The LA Galaxy soccer team. Iman's their official dentist and it's not like he paid them. Quite the contrary. They pay him. As in... Iman has to be on the field at every home game, has a facility in the stadium, and gets a freakin' Championship ring if they win like he's on the team. So if Iman's good enough for Beckham's team I'm pretty sure he can handle your veneers. :) What else can I say? His staff is courteous, knowledgeable and patient. What more can you want in a dentist? Iman's the man. I'd give him 10 stars if I could. read more

Dr. Iman has taken over since Dr. McBride retired. Dr. Iman does not disappoint! Same friendly staff. I will continue to go here. Every time I visit, I learn something new and I know my teeth and my gums are in good hands. I'm so happy that I found a Biological Dentist that's close to my home. Highly recommend this place! read more

I called in to schedule an emergency visit for my Dad and to my surprise got in, the most courteous receptionist helped me and took the time to explain that another patient had just called to cancel their appointment. Felt as if that was an immediate answer to my prayers! The entire staff Is wonderful!! As soon as you walk in you are greeted with kindness which is exactly what we needed to feel more at peace and relaxed. My Dad was examined by Dr. Iman and he blew us away! He was extremely thorough with a compassionate tone. Although he possesses a more youthful appearance, I was extremely impressed with the experience and expertise. Dr. Iman went above and beyond to get us taken care of. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

My full experience was so great. I was so scared, and they made sure I was very comfortable with everything I got done. 100% will recommend to family and friends read more

This practice has completely changed how I see my oral health care! I have always been terrified/do not enjoy visits to the dentist but I realize now I had no idea what was happening. Since coming here they explain my oral hygiene to me and walk me through every step so I'm informed. I feel so much more comfortable going in and now I do feel like I am getting the highest level of dental care! Thank you Dr Iman and team for taking care of my teeth, I couldn't be happier to have found this dental practice! read more

Dr. Iman is professional and caring and makes the process pleasant and smooth. Overall great office experience. Thank you!

It is very difficult to change doctors. Specially dentistry. Basically you grow up with one for most of your life. So when I moved I was very lucky to find This center. The people are amazing and Doctor Iman even more amazing. He is precise, courteous, and a major sports fan, which makes time fly by very fast. read more

I had a great dental experience here with the whole team and Dr. Iman! I was looking for a more holistic dentist who would help me with previous dental work and would take a more natural approach and they delivered! I am so happy to have found them and they gained a patient for life. Thank you so much! read more

Aside from the excellent care, I believe the thing I appreciate most about Dr. McBride is being educated as I get treatments. He is definitely an artist/master of his craft at this point and I trust his opinion implicitly. read more

Wow I'm so impressed with our visit. I took my little one for a routine cleaning but we got so much more. The staff here really takes their time, there is no rush, and Jenelle was AMAZING with my little one. I was a bit worried because it's not a specifically pediatric practice so I didn't know how well they would handle kids. Jenelle was sweet and patient, and really made the whole process fun and interactive. My daughter couldn't stop talking about how great her visit was. Little one had the beginning of the tiniest cavity but we were instructed to focus on nutrition and at-home care, and we would evaluate at the next visit if any corrective action was needed. I appreciated there was no push toward unnecessary procedures or scaring me into extra costly work (like many of my friends at other dental practices have experienced). They showed my little one her oral bacteria under a microscope and wow did that make an impact! She brushed three times today! They took little one's oral PH (she scored very well) and gave us plenty of options for natural toothpastes, alkaline foods, and great at home dental care. My favorite part is I know they won't be pushing any dangerous chemicals on us. No unnecessary neurotoxic fluoride, they offer fillings without BPA, low dose digital x-rays, and more. Dr. McBride is the sweetest and funny! Best of all he's very knowledgeable. It was WELL WORTH the expense to get that level of care and dedication! read more

Janelle is one of my favorite dental hygienist Dr. Mc Bride has ever had!! I've been going to Dr. Mc Bride since I was a teen, he's the only one I trust to work on my teeth. I know whatever he says works!! You can't go wrong with Dr. Mc Bride and his staff! read more

I came into Dr. McBride's office with bad periodontal disease. I have had my visits with Janine. She is fantastic. She is informative and very capable at cleaning my teeth. I've had a fear of going to the dentist from my former dentist after a really painful deep cleaning. My guns were bloody and hurt for 3 days after each time. I was very worried before going into it that it would be extremely painful like the last time I had it done it, But she was patient and very gentle. They have current technology and my gums only had little pain the same day and no pain at all the next day. I had my follow up appointment and what a difference! The only negative thing I could say are their prices are high for someone like me with no dental insurance. It's difficult to afford, but you get what you pay for! Quality care, informative care, and thorough testing. And they do everything to avoid unnecessary surgery. What cost me 1,300 could have cost me 8,000 at my previous dentist who wanted to do extensive surgery. read more

I just had my first appointment with a holistic/biological dentist , at the Dental Wellness Center in Long Beach. The experience was bar none the most incredible experience I've ever had with a dentist,or any medical professional for that matter..the dentist sat and talked with me for a long while before they even started , evaluated me, my lifestyle, and explained their philosophy and wellness approach and I was blown away. Before they will even clean your teeth, in order to keep you safe and know what they are treating, they take microbiology samples / slide preparations of oral biofilm, to determine the presence of bacteria and what types , and if they are low, moderate, or high risk for disease types of bacteria. They do an oral cancer screening, screen for sleep apnea indicators..They coach you on how to effectively very care for your teeth and gums so that you can reduce visits..and are education/ coaching focused. They teach you about how certain types of bacteria in the mouth are responsible for a host of other illnesses in the body.There is so much more that went into this appointment, that I can't smash into this post, but I'll have more to say after my next visit when they compile the results of all the diagnostics. I have never been excited to go to the dentist..but I love this place. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone. read more

Dr. Younan is a very skilled dentist with great bedside manners and have always been compassionate and delivers results and never oversells treatment . Highly recommended read more

If you just want to make use of your dental insurance and get a cleaning, and have that one tooth taken care of, then this isn't your dentist. If you're looking for a dentist who will treat your mouth and body as a whole, do the detailed tests to find out exactly what the root of the problem is (again, vs just fix that tooth), and do this with respect, with the intention to save your teeth in the long run, and to educate and empower you with lifestyle modifications, then this is your dentist. He's more than a dentist, he's a wellness doctor and so is his facility. This is a whole body and lifestyle holistic health center. Dr. McBride is highly rated, with decades of experience, he's warm and kind and does a "gentle" detailed examination, taking all sorts of tests and measurements. He says 8 out of 10 of his first time patients have serious dental issues, confused as they get regular cleanings. But it's like detailing your car but not checking your engine. His staff is happy, knowledgable and go out of their way to take care of you. You definitely aren't just another number here. Each time I arrive for a visit or make a call, I am warmly welcomed. Everyone there is ALWAYS smiling (these folks like their jobs!). Scheduling appointments is easy and flexible. They explain your procedure and costs beforehand. During the procedure, they explain the steps they are taking and why they're doing them. It really empowers you as a patient. With my last cleaning, I got a goodie bag of toothbrush, tongue scrapper, travel size holistic toothpaste and dental floss! It doesn't get better than this folks, especially for those who want to remove those toxic mercury fillings! Their mercury removal protocol is impressive! Check out their website first, then make the call. read more

LeAnn at the front desk was so nice. The dental assistant Julie was the Best! She knew her job but what I was most grateful for was her kindness and transparency. I trusted her and her advise. Dr Mc Bride truly cared for me. Not just my dental needs but wanted to get to know me. He addressed my fears and anxiety. The Dr saved my tooth, no root canal or extraction. A plus was a diffuser in the room diffusing essential oils. I am so excited about Dr Mcbride, my official Dentist. read more

Dr McBride and his staff are such friendly people and very professional. I enjoy the atmosphere and the quality of service they provide. Most importantly love that Dr McBride provides state of the art and holistic dental options. I highly recommend this office to all who are conscious of ultimate health. read more

I have never had a dental visit/review such as I received from Dr. McBride at Dental Wellness. No one had ever been as thorough, in-depth and revealing... He even showed activity, through a microscope, of what was going on in my mouth; explained how some was beneficial and others harmful. His practice is modern but yet excludes a lot of the harmful chemicals that are automatically used in the industry. Very nice office environment, staff is very pleasant and knowledgeable. I didn't know holistic dentistry was a possibility until there was an absolute need to search for it. Holistic practices are safe, healthier and much more supportive of fit lifestyles. read more

What a wonderful experience! Everyone is this office is so kind and friendly and so thorough. I never felt rushed or they were rushing me into unnecessary treatments. I found my new dentist read more

We adore Dr McBride and all his staff. I've been to many popular holistic dentists in the LA and OC area and none of them had Dr McBride's integrity, kindness/amazing bedside manor, extreme knowledge, and iron glad holistic principles. We drive two hours to see him and worth every mile. Dr McBride saved my teen daughter from TMJ surgery that other dentists suggested. My daughter was fitted for a Mago device and her lock jaw pain was feeling better in days and now fully pain free. A note to others with TMJ issues try to avoid all orthodontist work until your TMJ issues are solved first. Watch the great short videos on Dr McBride's website that are very informative. I've also had dental work done by Dr McBride and have been very pleased. Dr McBride has a passion for helping his clients and always puts them first. How may dentist do you know who would stay an hour past closing time to help others...none but that's what he's done for us in the past and we deeply appreciate his work ethics. Thank you Dr McBride and all the staff :-) read more

I've never had a dentist who explained what was going to happen and why. The staff and Dr McBride are all very caring and kind. I have extreme anxiety over dental issues and I had a very positive experience. My needs were listened to and best of all nothing hurt. The shots didn't hurt and the numbing is double checked before starting work by using something they call ice. They also don't use crazy contraptions in your mouth to do work and don't stuff your mouth with gauze and such. I was super nervous but it went smoothly. Plus my smile looks amazing again. They start on time and they stop on time, that's important when your nervous and scared. I would recommend anyone with dental anxiety to come here. read more

Not just an ordinary dentist. If you are interested in caring for your overall health as it relates to your teeth and mouth, this is the place to go. Dr. McBride helped me figure out and resolve some dental problems that were overlooked for years by previous dentists. read more

Always great, professional, caring dental service at Dr. McBride's office. Live the no pain policy!

I am beyond happy to have found this office. I only wish he had been my dentist since childhood and avoided average or mediocre care from my other dentists. That's not to say I've had only terrible dentists in the past, but even the ones I liked don't compare to the knowledge, care, detail and complete service provided by Dr. McBride. To me, he truly embodies the principal of "do no harm" that doctors should adhere to. I don't believe there are dentists who purposefully cause harm, but what I mean is that Dr. McBride has kept himself educated to recognize out-dated treatments, treatments that have shown signs of being less than effective or even potentially harmful, recognize areas that may cause issues later even if they're not an issue yet and the best ways to address the potential concern, as well as he doesn't immediately jump to invasive or drastic options. He does wonderful work and has even successfully completed a procedure that another dentist said could not be accomplished without killing my tooth. He is out-of-network, but I have no problem accepting that in order to keep him as my dentist. I much prefer to pay a little out of pocket and know I'm getting the best care without the anxiety that I might be making a bad decision or might have an undesirable outcome. read more

The reviews and his website looked promising, but I couldn't find anything with prices. I called to ask what the initial consultation would cost and the woman acted as if I was an idiot for bothering to call. She then told me I needed to read the ENTIRE website (which is quite long winded) and call her back later! What horrible customer service. I had already spent quite a bit of time reading their website which is why I called in the first place. Parts were unclear. Aren't you trying to get me to become your patient? Why am I being given homework for you to grace me with your dental skills? I'm sorry but I don't have an entire afternoon to read someone's lengthy website and it's awfully elitist to refuse to give someone a basic price for something as simple as the initial consultation. I finally dragged the price out of her and it really wasn't that bad, a bit more than a traditional dentist but manageable. Then she got huffy with me when I got off the phone and had this horrible sarcastic tone of voice. So excuse me for calling with some simple questions. In this economy especially it's not going to do your business a whole lot of good to be mysterious about basic pricing. I understand that every case is different but either you have set prices for basic things like exams or you're jacking over your patients. They wouldn't give me a price for a cleaning and said it was up to the hygienist. I've never heard of a dental office that doesn't have a set price for a cleaning or at least a ballpark. Tell me it will be between x amount and x amount, but to give no information is ridiculous. read more

What this group is really good at it taking your money. They get 5 stars for that. The real rating should be a ONE star for actually doing work. Beware..if TMJ issue first appointment is $444.00. They get you very happy thinking they will actually correct your pain. But it actually only gets you to the next step which is Scans that the DR. adds an additional one for $300.00. The you get to pay for appointment #2 which is $750.00. Remember as yet nothing has been done to correct your problem. At the next meeting it is suggested that you meet with "their" orthodontist (whatever he charges) and them they will create a program for you. So out almost $1500 and your still just talking. Via discussions one finally gets a number that it could be $30,000 to $70,000...really??? I found a wonderful Orthodontist in Manhattan Beach that actually is a TMJ specialist that made me splints for $5,000.00. I am out of pain. She teaches at UCLA/Lectures and really knows what she is doing. Said I should NEVER have Ortho again... read more

This is by far the best most thorough dentist I have been too. He and his staff are caring and great. I am very holistic and am so happy I found Dr. McBride. I have seen many dentists since I have moved around a lot with college, etc. It is really hard to find a dentist that cares and is a good dentist. I am happy to recommend this dentist to anyone who cares about their health and oral health. Because the two are related, ya know. read more

Dr. McBride is such a nice guy! His staff is incredibly friendly and their office is clean and comfortable. His website is full of very helpful information for people who want to learn about their oral health and how it affects your entire body. I went to an evening presentation a few years ago that completely changed my life. I learned about gum disease and it really creeped me out (in a good way). The word doctor comes from the Latin word 'docere' which means teacher, not treat-er. I spent hours reading his website and learned so much. I really had no idea how much I didn't know (and I have a doctorate)! Your oral health affects more than just the appearance of your teeth and can be a clue of other serious underlying conditions. Having a qualified, caring, and approachable dentist as part of your healthcare team is essential. - Got TMJ issues, popping or clicking in your jaw, or headaches? He can help! - Worried about gum disease? Yup, they can help with that. - Need teeth whitening? Sure thing, boss. - Snore terribly or grind your teeth at night? They've got your covered. - Not sure what you need? They can help you figure that out. As is the case with most health insurance, most dental insurance does not cover every treatment nor does it fairly reimburse doctors for their time, talent, or expertise. Dental care is definitely not an area that you want to skimp on. Treat yourself to the care you deserve, but make sure your budget is ready to cover what your insurance company won't. Yes, you are worth it! read more

2 giant mercury fillings OUT. 4 smaller to go. So happy to have found a dentist I trust with this serious procedure. I actually sat in Dr. McBride's chair during this visit feeling no fear or worry, just gratitude for having found such a competent dentist - when's the last time someone said THAT about a dentist visit?? read more

My family has been seeing Dr McBride since my boys were 3 and 5. I love his approach and the gentle care of the entire team there. They have explained perfectly and simply everything that was being done as my boys were treated so they both felt comfortable. We have had cleanings, SDF treatments and fillings. My oldest even has an anxiety disorder that can be very debilitating at times and he is happy to see Dr McBride every time. When my children feel anxious, Dr McBride lets them lay on my lap as he works on them. Dr McBride even personally calls to follow up with them after their appointments about how they are feeling. A previous pediatric dentist we had seen wanted put my son under general anastheias and do a full root canal for a bad cavity he had. Dr McBride was able to painlessly treat the tooth with 3 SDF applications to stop the decay and it took only minutes and required no anesthesia at all. To top it all off, the methods they use here align with our naturalistic life style and attention to natural health. I have recommended this office to several friends now and will continue to spread the word. Love the people who work here. read more

Dr. McBride and staff explained the process of my exam and walk me through each step thoroughly. It has been a challenge to find a trusting dentist and with Dr. McBride he is very trusting. Dr. McBride and staff do care about you as a person. So glad I found Dr. McBride. read more

I am absolutely terrified of the dentist. I am so glad I found a friendly and caring place! It is wonderful here.

Have I already said how much I LOVE my dentist & hygienist? I do, I do! When you see me with a big bright smile, this is why!

Dr. McBride and his staff are simply phenomenal. If you are looking for a group of highly skilled and caring individuals who are truly concerned with optimizing not only your dental health but your overall heath as well... look no further! I have only been a patient of Dr. McBride's for a few months, but I can honestly tell you he has completely changed my feelings about dentistry. Dr. McBride takes the time to explain to you everything that he is doing, to educate you about how YOU can help improve your health and wellness, and to ensure that you are completely comfortable with the entire dental procedure. He is a great person and the best dentist I have ever seen. If you're looking for a different, more pleasant, and more individualized dental experience go see Dr. McBride. I assure you, you will not be disappointed. read more

Dr. McBride and the staff at the Dental Wellness Center are extremely knowledgeable, kind and caring. I would highly recommend them for all of your dental needs for your entire family. read more

I came to Dr. McBride in severe pain. I chose him because I was desperate for help. My HMO dentist could not find out why I had pain. He suggested it was fibromyalgia. I decided to try a holistic dentist. Doc quickly saw the infection in the x-ray and sent me over to Dr. Fan for a root canal. Then we began the whole process. The root canal saved that tooth and ended the pain. The hygiene techniques I learned ended pain that I had in my throat. Since then step by step my teeth and health have improved. Doc's work is 1st class. It is worth paying more to get teeth done right, not only for looks, but also to stay healthy and live longer. read more
