Reception
Lizbeth Z.

Absolutely horrible experience. My appointment was at 1:00 PM and I arrived early at 12:50 PM, yet I wasn't even called back for X-rays until 1:55 PM. Completely unacceptable and a total waste of time. The staff in the back were extremely unprofessional--giggling, talking about unrelated things, and clearly not taking their jobs seriously. It felt more like a hangout than a medical office. The front may look nice and "aesthetic," but don't be fooled. The back area is dirty, dusty, and honestly looks unhygienic. It made me very uncomfortable. This was my first visit and definitely my last. I ended up walking out because the doctor was taking forever on top of everything else. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Their old name and number

Worst dentist in the area. AVOID GOING HERE. They are no longer the old Yampolsky Dental pre COVID team that was amazing. They fired everyone and it has been in decline since then. They also keep chasing their name. It used to be call something else and would constantly harass you with texts. See photo. When you call to make an appointment they sent you to a call center and the disconnect between the team on-site and the call center is crystal clear. They make appointments without even checking your record to see if you're appointment and dental insurance are aligned.

Before and after. Fresh out the dentist today

10/16/26 (UPDATED REVIEW):…read more Today I came in for a Routine Deep Cleaning & Dr. Grace provided the service. THE BEST DEEP CLEANING MY TEETH HAVE EVER RECEIVED IN MY LIFE! I have not EVER Received a Deep Cleaning like this before.. Dr. Grace is EXTREMELY Skilled in her practice and took her time on EACH & Every tooth I have. I even found out the routine I need for my dental cleanings. I was also given the cutest Oral B goodie bag that contains a NICE Oral B Pro Health Toothbrush, Oral B Deep Clean Dental Floss Mint Flavor* & Crest 3D Brilliance Whitening Toothpaste. ORAL B is one of the Leading Oral Care Brands.. so to receive these Goodies makes me Smile even more! It's SAFE TO SAY.. I've found Family Dentist & will NEVER LOOK BACK to any other Dental Practice. Thank you Dr. Grace & Dr. Steve for ALL THAT YOU DO I called same day & was scheduled to come in Thursday, 9/24/26 - AMAZING because most offices schedule 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!

The customer service was top notch. His work was completely painless. His assistant Maria was…read moreFANTASTIC!

The front desk lady is incredibly nice! She has the best customer service I've ever had at a dental office. They greet you with warmth and kindness, and you are seen right on time for your appointment because Dr. K individually works on one patient at a time, giving you his full attention instead of bouncing from room to room like some other dentists do. He also does all of the work himself. He is very patient and gentle and efficient. I will continue seeing him I've had nothing but positive experiences, thank you Dr K!

You'll never feel like you're being pressured into unnecessary work and I love that. I've been to other places where they'll say I need a million things done when in reality, I don't. I came here once and was told what they suggested I get done asap and what I could do in the long run. I immediately decided I would stay here and get my braces done since they also accepted my dental insurance. If you're looking for a dentist who gets straight to the point without wanting to over charge you or make you get extra work done, you need to come here!

In the market for a new smile?.... Great!...Bypass the rookies and come see SAM at California Smile…read moreDental Studio in Redondo Beach! .... Subsequent to a horrible ordeal, where my once lovely smile was mutilated by an alternate (nightmare) dental care provider : ( I frantically searched for a cosmetic-dental service to reverse the damage! In the midst of my desperation, I was divinely led to Sam and his pleasant staff at Cali Smile Studio.- With one phone call... I was graciously allowed a same-day office visit for Sam to observe and discuss my case. I was initially greeted via phone by BRENDA: the ever-so-sweet front desk/administrative manager. Despite my annoying mile-per-minute rambling in explanation of my case and why I wished to be seen a.s.a.p... Brenda remained calm and comfortingly accepted my same-day, impromptu office visit request. Upon arrival I was immediately delighted by the gorgeous serene ambiance! Never would you imagine a cosmetic dental office with such tasteful modern interior design and decor! being a very visual- person I declare 5 stars for this alone!! woo-hoo! -Sam kindly engaged my case and referred me to a great dentist were I could begin the process of him to producing the beautiful veneers I ultimately received. Sam was simply a pleasure to work with- extremely: kind, professional, attentive to detail, empathetic and understanding of my individual needs and desires. Above this Sam is just a super cool guy who you cant help but love!! Sam puts the 'S' in both (S)tyle + (S)miles.. haha Thank you Sam and California Smile Studio!!... thanks to you..finally, I can smile again (tear) xo : )

This is my first visit at the Gardena location and the young lady who assisted me was incredible!…read more Very professional with my dental office transfer process, services I need and the cost program. The office was extremely busy, but she and the other front office staff are very professional. And I have had horrible experiences with front office staff at other Western Dental locations. The other young lady that took my x-rays was fantastic, professional and courteous as well. This office is very modern, clean with the looks of modern, updated technology. I have my first official appointment for service in a couple of weeks and hope to continue this great experience at this location.

The most horrific dental experience of my life! The front office people are professional and this…read moreis where it ends! I went back 3,times before receiving help. Each dentist was worse than the one before. They were all unprofessional, talking down to me as a client, even saying racist comments like "you people" should take care of your teeth better. That was the first dentist. He is here making money from our insurance and didn't have enough professionalism to introduce himself. The second dentist was a female dentist who simply walked out of the room when I said I didn't have 3,000.00 to put down on an implant that day. I told her I wanted to save the tooth. I was told to come back. All this time, I was in pain. I come back a week later to see another dentist to extract the tooth. Now, here is when I experienced the most uncompassionate, unprofessional health personnel that I have ever met. Certainly, this person has no concept of how compassion is used to facilitate a sensitive and painful situation. This dentist did not want to wait for the Novocain to take effect. She was trying to rush the extraction which was very, very painful! I asked her to wait and she persisted and I had to block her attempt!!!! This is the only method that made her stop. I begged her to give another injection and wait to completely numb the site. She waited only another 8-10 minutes then resumed. It was still very painful and I could tell that she was rushing! She plopped the tooth out, dropped it on the table and left!!! Horrible attitude, no bedside manners ! Dr. Frankenstein from Pakistan. I will file a complaint with the American Dental Association. Dentistry is all about the money first in this place. There is a strong presence of racism and classism! Note: the assistants are good people and pretty well trained; however, they are afraid of their "superior" minded dentists! I wouldn't go here! I would even go to Mexico, Panama, Turkey, etc. the next time before going here! Buyer Beware

In fact, other dentist have commented on his work, and how good the implant was that he placed. He is a perfectionist and always does a great job! Highly recommended dentist. I've been a patient for over 15 years. I wouldn't even think of going to another dentist, and I live in KY. I choose to travel to have work done on my teeth by Dr Dang. Brite Dental of Gardena has the best staff. Leslie is very caring and super friendly. She makes me feel comfortable and taken care of during my visits. Emily, is sweet and always very helpful. She follows up with any questions I have regarding my treatment plan. Dr Dang is very honest. I trust only him with me and my family's dental care. If you're looking for an honest upfront dentist, Dr Dang is the one you need. Thank you Brite Dental of Gardena

Bedside manner is VERY important for me and everyone here is great! It's also not hard to get an appointment at all! I haven't been to a dentist in years and I was very nervous but I had a pain in one of my teeth so I decided I better go. He told me that tooth does need to come out and he asked me what my goal is. I said, "to save my teeth." He said OK and told me the next step is a deep cleaning. Just got that done the other day and Wow! Wow! Wow! My teeth have never looked better! Now I am motivated to brush and floss every day!
