I saw Dr. Wong in 2019 after researching cosmetic dentists in the area. I had braces (twice), and to make a long story short, I had two pointy, stubborn canine/eye teeth that shifted, causing it to look almost as if part of my tooth was missing. I was always hiding my smile, and it was just getting worse. He suggested a few things, but I ultimately decided that I wanted them bonded to look square, completely hiding the fact that they were pointy. He did that, and it made such a significant difference in my smile and confidence. I will definitely be back to see him when I need more work done. Oh - I forgot to mention that on top of being highly skilled, he is very nice and patient and has a great sense of humor. The staff are all great too. I hate going to the dentist, but this was an enjoyable experience. read more

5 star Dentist office. From the start to the end they really go above and beyond. They won't pressure you to get things done you don't need and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients well being. Can't recommend them enough. 10/10 all the way around read more

Bad Bad Bad, Very bad experience with this Dr Ellis if by chance you star with a other Dr and you go there they treat you Like very bad! Bad costumer service! Never Again!!!! read more

I was a new patient today and I was so impressed! I was introduced to Dr Wong by my sister. She mentioned that he has a light touch and enjoyable to be with. She was totally spot on. I had a cavity filled and didn't even feel the numbing shot. He was so friendly and funny and happy, what a joy! read more

Been coming to the dentist for a couple years and could not be happier. Very kind staff Dr. Wong is also very knowledgeable and honest. I would definitely recommend this dr to anyone read more

I'm so grateful for Dr. Wong. Previous dentists had never been able to get me numb and it was awful. I would end up getting way too many shots and then feel sick from all the lidocaine in my system. So much dental trauma!! From my very first visit with Dr. Wong I felt totally at ease. He is an absolute pro. Both my husband and I are devoted patients and cannot recommend him highly enough. 10 stars!! read more

Best dentist! Superior work. No pain when giving shots either and knows exactly how much numbing you need when work is required (so you don't have a "big, numb lip" all day.) I no longer work near his office but continue to go to him. I have been a patient of his for 35 years! read more

I never loved visiting the dentist until I met Ellis. He makes going to the dentist and breeze. Kristen and office staff are amazing and Ellis is top quality with his work. He is a wonderful friend now and I adore each visit. I also feel his prices are very good and look forward to my daughter being old enough to start going to this dentist with me. I also appreciate the easy free parking at his office and that he is open occasionally on Saturdays. I do wish he was in network with some insurance company.... read more

Ellis Wong is The Best. I have had multiple bridges that failed and root canals.The only ones didn't fail were the ones he did 15 years ago. read more

Ellis Wong, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Kind staff. Dental cleaning is some real deep cleaning. Dr Wong helped with my TMJ providing a harder piece to wear at night to adjust the position of my jaw. He is great and loves Hawaii! Talk to him about Hawaii and he won't stop! read more

Have been a patient of Dr. Wong's for 16 years...I had a dental emergency last week and called and asked to be seen and was told sorry no room for a week and a half.... I understand it's COVID but no one even attempted to speak with Dr Wong to try and help me. I called around and found another dentist that got me in right away....they too were full yet made room for a patient they had never even met.... This office should be disappointed in itself and I will not return ever again nor will I ever recommend this office...after a decade and a half it's quite gross how this was handled! Also it took 6 days just to even reply to my initial email... shows how poorly this office operates unfortunately...It did not used to be like this but there are new front office people working there and they clearly don't care to even attempt to help a patient in need let alone have the thoughtfulness to inquire with their boss. Dr Wong was always great but this new front office does not measure up! read more

WHERE HAS DR. WONG BEEN ALL MY LIFE??! My only regret is not finding him sooner since I moved out here. Aside from being funny, compassionate, kind, and friendly, Dr. Wong is really knowledgeable and takes the time to listen to all my concerns and answer all my questions. I always leave his office feeling well-taken care of, and dare I even say, pampered. He also has a great staff, from the receptionists to the assistants and the hygienist, everyone is always friendly and welcoming. On top of that, his office space is spacious, clean, with plenty of parking behind the building, and he has top-notch equipment so you can see areas of your own teeth like you've never seen before lol, what more can you ask for? If I had more stars, I'd give Dr. Wong all of them. read more

OMG. OMG. Let me just say you KNOW a dentist has to be awesome when you're sitting in the chair, three of your front teeth cracked, he is leaning over you drilling, and all you can think of is "OMG, I can't wait to post a review on Yelp about how amazing this guy is!!" I hate going to the dentist. I mean I really really hate going to the dentist. I hate it so much I was up at 5:00am this morning having an anxiety attack about going to the dentist. Heck I haven't even been to a dentist in 10 years (yuch I know). However halfway through my appointment today I was thinking that it was so pleasurable I will totally be coming back in 3 months for a check-up (sure the laughing gas helped). Really I am a tough critic when it comes to Dentists. Part of the reason I haven't gone in so long is I've never found one I liked. But Dr. Wong is awesome. He spends a lot of time with you putting you at ease, explaining everything. He has a great personality and he makes sure that above all you feel no pain. I will recommend Dr. Wong to everyone I know. He is my new favorite and you can rest easy if you are going to him - your experience will be pleasurable. read more

Dr. Ellis Wong saved my life I spent months saving and researching the best dentist for veneers. I went to a few different consults before deciding to go with Dr. Maddahi in Beverly Hills. I was promised 10 perfect veneers in just 2 visits. Wrong. I must have went back 8 times and each time I had to be re-numbed, drilled on, and missed work. Each set had something wrong, (2 teeth had air bubbles in them, 1 was off color, and a few were crooked/ too big.) I started to panic because I could see that the veneers were not getting closer to what I wanted but further away.. I looked like I had dentures!!! At my wits end I met Dr. Wong through one of his friends. (who had perfect teeth) .. As soon as I walked into his clinic, his staff made me feel like family. They were so warm and genuinely friendly (not fake friendly!!) and really do care. I was so shaken by all the pain I went through and was scared of the dentist chair.. but Dr. Wongs numbing and sedation techniques were so good, I actually fell asleep in the chair!!!! Which is crazy for me, because before that Id been a shaking, crying mess, with teeth on the verge of root canals from all of the trauma. They were very sensitive. Dr. Wong used all these tools that the other dentist didnt use, like a tool to see where my midline should be, a gum laser thing that reshaped my gums to make them even, and lots of little things to ensure perfection. AND PERFECTION is what I got.. in 2 visits!! (Like the other one had promised, but Dr. Wong actually delivered.) Absolute perfection. I was starting to think that there was something wrong with ME.. like maybe I was too much of a perfectionist for my own good, and was only seeing the flaws in the other guys work.. but NO. If you pay top dollar for perfection, you should not settle for anything less. BY THE WAY.. Dr. Ellis Wong does NOT charge top dollar. His prices are ALOT less expensive than what I was quoted by other dentists.. including the one I gave all my money to. (who gave me only half my money back, by the way.. even though I kept none of his teeth and he didnt deliver what was promised.) But luckily, it covered the cost of Dr. Ellis Wong.. so I didnt lose too much more money. I wish I would have found him sooner.. But I am so so SO lucky I found him when I did.. otherwise, I probably would have lost my job, my modelling career, not to mention, MY TEETH! Thank you Dr. Wong for being brilliant, and to his nurses and staff for the same :))) read more

Ellis Wong, DDS - my veneers from BEFORE DR. WONG from previous dentist (the yellow tooth was a temporary) - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

See all

Dr. Wong is a wizard. I'm a bit of a dental chicken, and I cannot say enough positive things about this man! His staff is fantastic, as well. Both receptionists are warm & sweet, and followed up with a full explanation of benefits/expected charges before I even saw him for the first time. He's friendly, bright, incredibly accommodating, and most importantly, an excellent dentist. I've never NOT felt a novocaine shot - but somehow, he manages to get it done without an ounce of pain or discomfort. Magical! I've gone to him for a few different procedures - general cleaning/exam, replacing an old leaky mercury filling, re-bonding my chipped front tooth - and I've been altogether pleased with each and every service. After years of dentist experiences that ranged from 'meh" to "GAH!", I'm so thrilled to have found Dr. Wong. read more

I have a very clear understanding of how the front and back office flow in a dental office. I spent an hour reviewing my husbands insurance plan, dental reviews and finally made a couple selections. I called Dr. Wongs office and asked if they were contracted with MetLife. The secretary said, "Yes we take MetLife." I took the answer as if they were, "In Network." That was my mistake I should have chosen my words correctly and asked if the office was contracted with MetLife and "In-Network." My husband goes to the office has, a very pleasant experience getting being established with the office. Full oral comprehensive exam, perio charting, preexisting restoration charting, current problems charted and X-rays. All of these services are considered preventative, covered by all insurance at 100% as long as they are, "In-Network" dental provider. While my husband is filling out his paperwork the secretary highlights and brings to his attention that the doctor is Not-In-Network with MetLife but, "Works" with them. My husband doesn't understand Insurance's and thought everything was correct. His assumption was based off my previous phone call to the office prior to scheduling. When I asked if the doctor was, "contracted" with MetLife. It seems as if the office secretary knew what she was doing was misleading patients. The only reason someone would go to an, "Out of Network" doctor is if it was their ONLY option and they felt comfortable paying out of pocket for services their insurance would completely pay at a 100% rate. The secretary knows what she is doing is misleading people to making them think the doctor is, "In Network." She could have said yes were contracted with MetLife only as, "Out of Network" provider. Now my husband has learned his lesson and is now looking for a dentist that is, "In Network" read more

This is an amazing dentist and his staff is fantastic. I have PTSD so dentist for me is a nightmare - but I feel completely safe here. From the moment you walk in the door you meet real ' family ' people who cares. This is a dentist who is decent, thorough and a person who knows his profession. His equipment is top notch, the atmosphere is very relaxing and the pricing is fair. I would recommend him to anyone. read more

I am so glad I decided to go to Dr. Wong! I just moved to Los Angeles and was in need of a new dentist, so upon reading others' Yelp reviews, I decided to go to this guy! All of the staff was so incredibly friendly and helpful. I have never in my life felt comfortable at a dentist's office, but I felt very at ease here. I'm upset that I have so many cavities to be filled, but I'm not very anxious at all, knowing that I'll be in good hands. I even signed up for a Yelp account just to make this review! read more

I have been a patient for close to 30 years. In all that time his work has been stellar, I still have fillings from my first visits to dr Wong's. He has a great sense of humor, a great staff and they work with you to keep you and your teeth healthy.. read more

Raise your hand if you like going to the dentist. Anyone? Well, come to Dr. Wong and you will. I have been a patient of Dr. Wong's since 1986 and now, even with a one hour commute (one way), I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. I did have one brief lapse of brain activity and ventured for a cleaning elsewhere. It was my reminder that there is no other place that can match the experience you will have with Dr. Wong and his staff. Truly. Dr. Wong has always been open and honest with me and my dental work (fillings, crowns, and cleanings). Recently, I had a cavity in a tooth that on the x-ray looked like it might be a potential candidate for a root canal. Thanks to Dr. Wong's honesty and integrity (and dental brilliance!), he saved my tooth with a simple filling and a stern reminder to floss, floss, floss. I trust Dr. Wong 100%. I appreciate him and his entire staff. They constantly exceed my expectations and do everything to accommodate my needs. Are they friendly? You will immediately feel part of this family. Warmth and friendliness exudes from everyone. Have I ever felt any pain? Nope. And I consider myself an extreme baby when it comes to pain. I highly recommend Dr. Wong. I highly recommend the support you will get from his staff. You will like going to the dentist after just one visit. Really! read more

The reviews don't lie he is truly the best. And he loves Hawai'I! Kidding, he has the best quality equipment, gas for pain, a gentle touch and superb technique. My bf comes here too and he has really taken care of his sensitive mouth. Office is clean and has nice ambiance. Reception can def tell u what u need to know as well. Dr Wong is always laughing, in a good way, not scary, in the room and for me that's unique. I'll stick with him until he retires! read more

The staff here is absolutely amazing, Dr. Wong is as nice as can be and the place is just lovely to be in. The waiting area is nice and relaxing, there is even a wine fridge with various juices and waters for patients to help themselves to while waiting. I have to go to an oral surgeon for my issue, but I can't wait to come back and get a teeth cleaning here. How is this place so amazing that I can't wait to come back? That just doesn't happen. I'd like to add that my referral was to Dr. Lew and while I haven't been in, I can already tell that they are also an amazing office based off of the friendliness and helpfulness of the receptionist. read more

I had an emergency situation and very happy and lucky that chose this clinic,Dr. Wong is very professional,attentive,careful! He will make sure you're fully comfortable and not feeling any pain ,he will explain in detail every step what is he doing and why ,..stuff is great too and prices pretty fair ,..Dr. Wong thanks again for amazing experience and saving my life from horrible pain. read more

I've been going to Dr. Wong my WHOLE Life...ok, not my whole life, but my entire adult life. I never understood why people feared going to the dentist. Dr. Wong always made it seem easy and painless. When I moved away, I went to other dentists and realized why people were so anxious about their visits. There simply is no comparison! He makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Strangely, even the office also has a calming, airy vibe to it too. Dr. Wong has a natural ability to reassure you and make you feel comfortable. He's the best there is. I've chipped my front teeth numerous times and because he's a specialist in cosmetic dentistry, no one can ever tell! Dr. Wong and his staff have practically become family. I can't lie, he is pricey, but worth EVERY penny! I get compliments on my teeth all the time. It's all thanks to Dr. Wong. He cares and if there's an emergency his staff will do whatever it takes to squeeze you in! read more

No one loves going to the dentist but I can say that I loved my experience today! Professionalism, honesty and thoroughness. Please don't hesitate in booking in....you won't be disappointed and you can be assured they have your teeth and you in their best interests. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! read more

Dr. Wong is a genius!!!! If you are considering cosmetic veneers or need someone to redo them, please go to Dr. Wong. I had veneers that were all WRONG for my mouth and face. Dr. Wong has a procedure to create a wax-up that will give you an exact idea of the final product! He is a perfectionist and takes his time. The new veneers look and feel perfect. Brilliant! and super funny too! He made the whole process as pain free as possible. His staff is top notch. Go see Dr. Wong, his prices are competitive, and his work is priceless. Thank you Dr. Wong! Jennifer read more

because of dr. wong, i am no longer afraid of the dentist. i have no fear, because dr. wong is here. corny, i know, but it's true. i used to be the white knuckle, fearful, please can i have a xanax before going to the dentist girl. now, it's a breeze. i don't mind going to the dentist. dr. wong is so good at what he does, i never, ever felt ANY pain whatsoever, from start to finish, never any discomfort or pain. it didn't hurt that he gave me laughing gas. he gave me orange glasses to wear while doing the work to get me new crown, and between the laughing gas, the orange glasses, and donna summer playing on the radio, i swear i thought i was at studio 54. honey i was feeling NO PAIN. and the beautiful thing about it is that afterward they give you pure oxygen so you don't feel any adverse affects of the laughing gas and you can drive yourself home. i was, and am, so relieved to have found dr. wong. i am so confident in his ability that he was my son's first ever dentist, and he'll also be his, and my, only dentist. thank you dr. wong and staff, you all are fantastic! read more

If you're in search of a new dentist, go to Dr. Wong. If you have a dentist that you're not in love with, go to Dr. Wong. His was my first dentist visit in LA, partially because I used to go when I visited home, and because I didn't want to try more than one place, so I was hesitant to commit... He came highly recommended, and I was completely satisfied. Highlights: Incredibly friendly staff, upfront pricing and options, no pushing sales. I was having some insurance issues, so ahead of time, they found out all of the potential fees I would have to pay, and emailed them to me! And, they use a camera to examine your teeth, so much less awkward gagging from prodding in the back of your mouth. I've never seen such happy, smiley patients walking in and out of a dentist's office. Go, you won't be sorry! read more

Easily the best dental experience I've ever had. Very friendly and courteous. Dr. Wong has been working with me to repair sone of the shotty dental work I've received at other offices. They really put in an effort to work with your phobias,insurance and finances. read more

I wish I hadn't had to get that dental work done, but I'm so grateful that a friend recommended Dr. Wong. He's really something. Pain-free, perfect color & translucency matching on fillings, he returned an emergency call on a Sunday (immediately)... and the guy just cracks me up. I mean he is FUNNY. He's got one of those tiny cameras that can get an angle on any tooth, and you can watch the picture on a monitor. Kristen, Susanne, Veronica and everyone working at his office are all genuine and genuinely friendly. Every aspect of his space is well-designed, the lobby ridiculously so (see photos). I mean look at that ceiling! Plenty of parking in the back. Can't recommend him and his office highly enough! read more

Believe me, if I could give Dr. Wong 10 stars - in a heartbeat! I have been his patient since age 6. My first and ONLY general dentist. I'm 20 now. I haven't seen him in 3 years (yuck, I know) but after last month, it felt like walking down memory lane. DR. WONG, I hope you can read this: You are my favorite tooth wizard, baby. I can't express it enough on how much I love the office, staff, ethics, and overall work. I had a cleaning here not too far ago and the hygienist that gave me the prophylaxis (deep ultrasonic scaler cleanse) was extremely nice. When I called to schedule an appointment, the receptionist burst out in excitement when she pulled out my patient record. Everybody here has watched me grow over time. I couldn't help but feel a sense of memorabilia rush through my blood when walking into the waiting room. Looked better than when I last visited. Sitting in the comfy chair, having the dental staff smile at me, and having the doctor ask me how I've been was all heartwarming. I love them all so much, if you were to go to any general dentist in Los Angeles, please look no further. One more thing, I am studying to be a dental assistant. Dr. Ellis Wong has been an inspiration since I was a wee lad. He's downright motivational and I suggest to anybody searching for a local LA dentist. He's the man to go to, and take it from me, a patient since 2000. read more

Can I give 10 out of 5 stars?? I would do it! I've been coming to Dr. Wong for 14 years. I've recommended him to countless friends & colleagues; he really is the best dentist out there. The doctor cares about teeth & care generally. He is always knowledgeable on the latest news in the industry, gives you an honest opinion about treatment & has an excellent eye & hand in cosmetic artistry beyond practical dental care. Beyond building a highly reputable practice, Dr. Wong is friendly, hilarious & I truly look forward to heading to the office every 6 months. Lucy & Kristen at the front desk are so incredibly on top of it & organized that the entire process, from booking thru insurance & payment, is seamless... and they are warm & friendly to boot! The theme here at the office is that everyone CARES. Catherine does a very thorough yet painless job when cleaning my teeth & I'm so appreciative. Plus, it's always a funny ongoing conversation. I didn't realize what I had been missing in normal cleanings until finding this practice. I trust Dr. Wong with my teeth... and as I am a bit obsessed with my oral health & having a beautiful smile, it's a big deal. read more

Was looking for a dentist on Yelp and came across Dr. Wong's page. The reviews looked solid so I made an appointment. Over the course of the last several months I've gone in 3-4 times for cleanings/check ups. The staff here is extremely friendly, the office is impeccably clean (very important), and Dr. Wong is a really nice guy who's very easy to talk to. I've never had dental phobia, but even if I did this place makes it really easy to deal with. read more

I was pretty unhappy with my previous dentists in Los Angeles. No more. Dr. Wong and his wonderful staff are absolutely first-rate. They're an absolute pleasure to deal with and their work is top notch. read more

I hadn't gone to a dentist in more than 4 years. I came here because I looked up dentists on Yelp and I found this place. Like any place providing any service, you look for certain things. They had GREAT customer service. The staff was helpful and friendly. The office was very clean and nice. It was also quiet and calm. Dr. Wong was funny, friendly, straight forward and thorough when explaining things. They had affordable and fair pricing. I plan on getting more dental work done here very soon. I figure it's safe to say that this is my permanent DDS now in Los Angeles until/if something happens to make me feel differently. I don't think it will. read more

Dr. Wong is one of the best dentist I've ever had. He has a great , very helpful staff. Dr. Wong done huge cosmetic work for me and I could't be more happier. he is very attentive and thorough. Highly recommended. read more

I've been going to Dr. Wong for almost 20 years. His office is clean with great magazines and the staff are all super friendly. Dr. Wong is a perfectionist but his personality is really easy going and he's always smiling. My kid doesn't even mind going there. read more

Dr Wong is the best dentist I have ever been too. I have been going there for years and have always had a wonderful experience- all the people who work there are incredibly friendly and professional. I greatly appreciate going to an appointment and being seen on time and they are the BEST at being on schedule. I have a cavity problem and have been terrified of the pain of the filling process- no need to be scared with Dr Wong. I didn't even feel the injection and the whole process was quick and I felt absolutely nothing the entire time. I recently moved to Chicago and was so sad about having to find a new dentist. I finally went after 1 year to a new dentist and they raved about Dr Wong's work- all 3 dentists in the new office had to come check out my teeth- emberassing but funny. They were impressed with my white fillings. I recommend Dr Wong to anyone looking for a dentist or if you are not 100 % happy with your current dentist. read more

I went for a crown and had no pain at all during or for cavities. Just make sure you know how to floss correctly. I wanted to give 5 star but I wasn't taught to floss the right way by either childhood or previous dentists. Yes including all. Dr Wong is great just got this plaque issue now. Wish they taught me that instead of aggressive flossing. read more

Having found Dr. Wong via Yelp and tried the office out because of the great reviews I felt compelled to review my visit and say - YES! The great things on here are true. The staff is courteous, friendly and professional and Dr. Wong is knowledgable, honest and enthusiastic. The hygienist who cleaned my teeth was so attentive to my gum sensitivity, she even numbed them prior to cleaning. I dread the teeth cleaning and scraping of these things and while this wasn't fun it was the LEAST amount of pain I've ever experienced. Highly recommend. read more
