I can't say enough good things about Dr. Mark Wood and the team at Central Dentist Specialty…read moreCenter. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and welcomed. The front desk is efficient, friendly, and always willing to help with scheduling or insurance questions. Dr. Wood has an excellent chairside manner--professional, patient, and very thorough in explaining every step of the process. He takes time to answer questions, never makes you feel rushed, and his calm demeanor really helps ease any dental anxiety. I appreciated how he walked me through my treatment plan and gave me options without any pressure. The office itself is clean, modern, and equipped with the latest technology, which made procedures quick and smooth. What really stood out to me was how gentle Dr. Wood was during treatment--I barely felt anything, and recovery was much easier than I expected. If you're looking for a dentist who truly cares about his patients, listens, and delivers high-quality work, I highly recommend Dr. Mark Wood at Central Dentist Specialty Center. He's the kind of dentist you can trust long-term.

Staff were kind, explained cost, procedure and overall after care of my root canal treatment. The endodontist Henry Kwon was amazing! As someone who struggles with high anxiety at the dentist, he made me feel very relaxed, informed me of the procedure and overall was a delight! Never did I think getting a root canal retreated would be so quick and painless.

I sat there 40 minutes to find out she never saw my appointment. According to her it's next week. Two problems, first of all why lie about what you saw on the computer.

No thanks, I will not be bringing my business here. Very unprofessional receptionist and schedulers.

Downey, family dental has been a great experience. After many years of being frightened and scared…read moreof visiting the dentist, I had excruciating pain that was occurring due to a broken tooth. I stopped by to get x-rays and have my teeth exam and I was getting ready to hear a lot of bad news. Knowing that I had not visited the dentist in about 8 to 10 years I knew that there would be work that would be needed to be completed.. The dentist was very helpful with letting me know the severity of it, but at the same time showed optimism and made me feel comfortable. Not only are we looking into the repairment of my tooth but also he explained to me the things that would be needed to be done in order to restore my teeth. I had plaque built up and my gums were very swollen with numbers high as fives and six which is not great and he explained to me that it would take a few appointments of deep cleaning and laser treatment in order to restore them. The appointments that I've had with them have been painless, and they have always made me feel comfortable while visiting them. This really helped me overcome my fear of visiting in the dentist and I actually do look forward to seeing them for my next appointment. Thank you Downey family dental, Dr. Nguy and the rest of the team for not only making it a seamless and positive experience, but truly helping me get my teeth restored!

My husband & I had such an amazing experience at this dental office! From the moment we walked in,…read moreeverything felt welcoming, clean, and well organized. The front office staff were incredibly professional and helpful . they took the time to clearly explain our dental benefits and made the entire process stress-free. The dental assistants were so kind and caring while taking our X-rays. They were gentle, friendly, and made us feel completely comfortable. Both of The Doctors ( Dr.Nguy & Dr.No) were absolutely wonderful! not only knowledgeable and professional, but also hilarious! There was a fun little rivalry between one being a proud alum of UCLA and the other from USC which made the visit even more enjoyable and hilarious . You can tell they genuinely care about their patients and about the work they do. Overall, such a positive experience. I truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and great energy of the entire team. Highly recommend! We will be seeing you guys soon for our plan of care treatment

I got my Root canal done by Dr Ryan on March 29th and he was very patient and friendly and…read moreattentive with my needs. They were running a bit late that day but i came late too so I can't complain about that but because we started late and also because my tooth nerve was not straight and was curved, it took much longer. I could tell that everyone was leaving and we were like the last one in the office. I could tell that the assistant wanted to leave already but Dr Ryan still took his time to do the best job he could do. My girl works in the dental office and I have a dentist friend (they don't take my insurance) I showed them what he did and they said it was impressive how he did a good work on my root canal. Hopefully I don't have to do another root canal in the future but if i have to do another one, I would definitely come back to him.

They took my payments of $950 for some scans and after waiting 4 hours downstairs for them to bring me upstairs they finally took me upstairs which the person who wheels out patients said 30 minutes more to wait which ended ip being another hours. They had about 3 families in a hallway with uncomfortable chairs wooden and hard. The AC was like at 50 degrees. And they didn't let us sit in the front desk area where because the DR isnt letting anyone sit there. Huh? people are standing??! i was shook how ghetto that was... When i was getting prepped for surgery my blood pressure was super high. Im guessing it was because of the wait and frustration. smh. The only good thing from this place was the surgeon and anesthesiologist. They were nice :) Also i think they pay people with a $10 starbucks's gift card to write good reviews.. Anyways 3-4 days later i was concerned of a dry socket so i scheduled a walk in appointment. As soon as i entered the room there was a male Dental Assistant idk his name and he made me feel uncomfortable and ashamed for going in. Like if i was dumb for going in because i was concerned. He and Dr. Castellanos had an awkward conversation and i think she was trying to make me not feel stupid for asking but the guy just kept looking at me weird. I think there needs to be a talk about having empathy and patience with people who have no idea about the healing process of wisdom teeth removal. Idk i didn't like his attitude towards me. I wont ever be going back there.

I came in for one specific cavity with no pain, yet was presented with a $3,080 "package" including deep cleaning, irrigation, a possible root canal, onlay, and even a partial denture. I was not given the option to treat just the cavity I came in for. It felt like unnecessary services were being pushed instead of addressing my immediate concern. Although the office has many positive reviews, I was told gift cards are offered for reviews and that some may come from friends and family, which raises concerns about their authenticity.
