Dr. Park is definitely "la crème de la crop" in Oral Surgery! It's not often you meet someone so knowledgeable. who also has heart and soul. He listens, he's empathetic, and then he gets the job done and you'll be content when you leave his office. His staff follows his lead in professionalism and creating an inviting and warm environment. And if you should wait a little, well then you can enjoy the panoramic view of Santa Monica and beyond! read more

If I could, I would give a 100-star review to Dr. Park and his staff (Jackie, Gina, Kanita and Liz to name a few) at Santa Monica Center for Oral Surgery! They are all fantastically competent, and importantly, each person I met and interacted with was very kind which resulted in a pleasant experience on each of my visits. Dr. Park is a genius, and I would not go to another surgeon. Moreover, he is a beautiful human being. I had some challenges on both my surgeries, before even coming into the office and the kindness and creative way they helped me made all the difference. To top it off, they have THE MOST beautiful waiting room ever! The best view in the city and on a clear day you can see the ocean. It is so clean and spacious; it puts one at ease immediately. Thank you for all your good work and your extreme kindness and care. The results speak for themselves! read more

Dr. Park is a brilliant surgeon. He is so skilled and focus when he is working. I felt completely confident when he removed teeth and put in my 2 implants. You can't find a finer oral surgery. read more

I came to see Howard about 5 years ago after having an awful experience elsewhere. I had some major issues with my mouth,gums & teeth. Howard and his staff are amazing. Howard is very thorough, Gentle, and professional from the time you walk in the door. I can honestly say I've never been treated so well (Love the staff). They do things the right way the first time. To date I've had a total of 4 implants. My mouth is healthy and my teeth look great. A BIG thank you to Howard & his awesome staff for being so helpful and kind. Don't be afraid to go see this crew as they are always ready and professional. read more

My 91 y/o mother in law was referred to Dr. Park by her dentist, Dr. Larry Picard, for an acute dental emergency. Dr. Park saw her on a Friday without an appointment, examined her and immediately performed an extraction of an abscessed tooth. His entire staff was professional, caring and kind. They sent us home with detailed aftercare instructions and prescriptions in hand. In addition, the doctor came in on Saturday to check her incisions and healing progress. Dr. Park was truly amazing, and I don't know what we would have done if she had to wait any longer to have the tooth and infection removed. I absolutely recommend Dr. Park and Santa Monica Oral Surgery. read more

Was recommended to see Dr. Park for my very first implant and while I can't say I was looking forward to it -- I can say the experience went much better than I thought. Staff is a large one and they make you feel comfortable from the moment you arrive. HIGHLY recommend spending the extra $350 bucks or so and spring for the Nitric Oxide (laughing gas). It's like having a two martini lunch without the food. You're certainly aware of what's going on -- but don't really care. He pulled the bad tooth pretty quickly and inserted the implant while I was off floating on a cloud somewhere. I was prescribed some pain meds and anti-biodics which I filled at a nearby CVS. Only took one pain pill that day as my recovery was much easier than projected. A couple of Advil would have suited me fine -- but everyone is different so you might need the Vicodin. Follow up visit in two weeks -- and in 4 months, I go see my regular dentist for the replacement tooth/crown. Oh, they do offer a 5% discount if you pay by cash or check (which helps a bit as implants are not cheap). Still, it's better than having a root canal as those don't last as long -- and you'll probably need the implant eventually. Thank you Dr. Park - so far so good! read more

Dr Park and everyone in the Santa Monica Center for Oral Surgery and Dental Implants , is amazing, compassionate, honest and so helpful. Dr. Park is the best, he is a genius. He extracted my tooth and did the implant in one visit. (It did not hurt at all and I was terrified and upseet. ) As this was my front tooth, what he did using the tooth and veneer as a temporary, for 5 months was Genuis...,. Inovative and his assistants were lovely. He is simply the best! read more

They are the absolute best. I am a big chicken when it comes to dentists and oral surgeons. Dr Park and staff are welcoming and calming from beginning to end . I am very careful about writing reviews but they are better than anyone I have been to. Without a shadow of a doubt or hesitation I would recommend them hands down! My teeth love them too read more

It's exactly 24 hours since having 4 dental implants placed by Dr. Park and his amazing team and I'm in complete awe how I have zero pain. As a doctor and surgeon myself I continue to strive to give my patients the best experience I possibly can and Dr. Park has just raised the bar. His staff is competent, caring and very efficient. I was made to feel comfortable and well taken care of every step of the way. Edmond is the docs right hand man in surgery and reminds me of my scrub techs, he knew the docs every move and was well prepared to execute so the doc could get things done. Thank you Dr. Park, you and your team are first rate and the best in the game! read more

you won't find a better oral surgeon than Dr. Park. I haven't had a single problem or complication with my implants. He is the best.

Very very competent surgeon. The staff followed up after the surgery to make sure everything went OK and everything went so smoothly. The recovery was quick and painless.

Recently my mom fell and broke two of her front teeth. She needed to have the roots surgically extracted and was referred to Dr. Park. My mother is elderly and often becomes confused and disoriented at doctor's appointments, sometimes not comprehending where she is and why she is there. Dr. Park and his staff went out of their way to make my mom feel at ease with the surroundings and situation. The doctor and his staff handled everything so quickly and smoothly that she exhibited no signs of the agitation that I feared might well have resulted during a procedure that would cause most anyone a degree of anxiety. The professionalism and caring displayed by all involved was first rate and deserving of the highest marks. Kudos! read more

I love everything about this office! They where super clean with COVID going on and that was very nice to see. The office is beautiful and well kept. I had 4 wisdom teeth extracted yesterday from Dr. Park, he was very informative and professional and made me feel super comfortable with any questions I had. All of the staff/employees are fabulous and super nice. They really made me feel super comfortable. I was put under with General anesthesia and glad I was. I totally recommend it! My process took about 30 minutes I was in and out, I was so impressed on the pain level when I walked out of the office I had no pain, as soon as the meds wore off, I was a tiny bit sore on one side because I have stitches in. I was not swollen nor had any bruising. Today is my second day after the surgery and I feel wonderful! I have no complaints or regrets I highly recommend Dr. Park and his staff! Thank you guys for taking such great care of me. read more

I have only had 2 cavities in my over 50 years of life. So imagine my horror when I was referred to Dr. Park for a tooth extraction. I cried. The staff on the phone (especially Charlie), gave me an appointment for a consultation immediately on the same day. When I arrived, the entire staff, specifically Liz, made me comfortable. Dr. Park explained the entire process to me. I would require sedation for the extraction due to the location of the bad tooth and my high fear level. I was terrified and called the staff every day until my appointment. They were ALWAYS patient and kind, they answered every question I had, and they never made me feel like I was imposing on their time. The day of the extraction was difficult, but from the moment I arrived, the entire team made me feel comfortable. One hour later, I was awake and driven home. One week later and the infection and pain is completely gone. The office is the ultimate in professionalism, Dr. Park is a skilled, honest, and reassuring doctor...plus they even give you a "care package" when you leave with everything you'll need during your first week of recovery. I hope never to have to use Dr. Park for such a situation again. But if you need oral surgery, this is the place to go. Thank you, Dr. Park and your entire team for taking such good care of me. read more

Howard H. Park DDS is the very best. My implant is still in place was placed several years ago. My DDS , Dr. Thomas Weil here in Austin tells me, it was excellent work done. Anyone moving to Austin TX ; go to my now oral surgeon and dental implants done painless by Dr Thomas Weil, excellent, honest. Super cool dentist! read more

Clean office and felt they followed COVID protocols. Experience of having a tooth extracted went smoothly and experienced little to no pain. The staff of Helen, Ed, Jeni and Sabrina were great! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because I had to wait an hour. read more

Great staff, Great Dr., Great experience. Dr. Park was informative, quick and very nice. The first appointment I had was to pull a bad tooth. He did that so quick I didn't even know it was done. I thought thats it? No long wait to make me dread what was about to happen while reading 5 gossip magazines just a "lets do this" and zip and it was out. The second appointment Dr Park put in the post for the implant & later on that day the staff called me to check on the bleeding and pain. After quick thought about the question I happily said "no bleeding and no pain, Im good!" Have not been to any other oral surgeons but I bet he is the best, he was just to good not to be. read more

There is NO better doctor than Dr. Park. He has done and will continue to do work for me and I would never go to any one else! Linda S read more

Last night I was in horrible pain because of an impacted wisdom tooth. I called Dr. Park's office first thing in the morning (they open at 7am) to ask if there was any way they could fit me in that day. They told me to come in as an "emergency" appointment and they would fit me in at some point. Everyone in the office was very gracious and I only waited 15 minutes. Dr. Park knows what he is doing. He pulled two of my wisdom teeth in about 10 minutes. I was completely numb, didn't feel a single thing. It was amazing! I was in and out in about an hour and a half, and had minimal swelling. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Park if you live in West Los Angeles and need any or all of your wisdom teeth removed. Professional and to the point. read more

Dr. Park has done 2 implants for me. His office staff is efficient, they're good with follow-up and the office has state-of-the-art equipment. Dr. Park is so nice and made what seems like a scary procedure, not scary at all. My implants were done in less time than it takes to fill a cavity. Really. The fact that I went back to him for my second implant kinda says it all, and I just recommended him to a friend. read more
