I have been to dentists, like most people, throughout my life. After each appointment with each past dentist, I vowed never to return. All of these former dentists seem to never listen to the patient's experience (and some seem to offer you services which you clearly don't need.) Because of these bad experiences with dentists, I have something of a phobia when going to them. So, when I arrived at Dr. John Zhang's office, I had no reason to believe that anything would be different from my past experience. I was totally wrong! This dentist is excellent, exceptional, and goes the extra mile to make sure you are fully satisfied with every part of the procedure-no hyperbole! For example, this dentist is a considerate and thoughtful practitioner, listens to my personal experience and areas of concern regarding my teeth and ensures that all my worries and concerns are addressed. Further, and impressively, Dr. Zhang lets you know in laymen's words what he is doing at each and every step of the dental procedure. Wow! When he finished extracting the infected wisdom tooth #16, he removed it so gingerly that, honestly, I never knew that he took it out until he showed me it! When I entered his practice, I was a new patient and hyper-skeptical of dentists. However, I assure you now that, as long as I am living in LA, I will be frequenting his office when I need dental care. Thank you, Dr. Zhang, for your care and diligence. And, thank you for hiring friendly and helpful receptionists. M. Kohler 8/19/21 read more

I would not come here again. I chose this office specifically because of the 4.9 rating on Yelp, but unfortunately, my experience was far from that level of quality. Front Desk & Organization: I had my first appointment here, which I verified over the phone beforehand. However, when I arrived, I was told I didn't have an appointment and they didn't have my insurance information (which I had already provided). The front desk worker, Sheila (I believe), was very cold and rude. Even after I showed phone receipts proving I had called to book, I never received an apology. The Consultation & Cleaning: They were able to squeeze me in after a 30-minute wait, which I initially appreciated. However, the entire visit felt extremely rushed. I would have preferred they simply be honest about not having time rather than rushing through my consultation and cleaning. * Lack of Communication: The dentist started cleaning my teeth without warning or explanation. When I asked what was happening, Sheila interrupted to say she had "told me" it might happen. A patient should always be fully aware of what is being done. * Poor Technique: This is the first time in my life a dentist did not floss under my braces with a threader or offer mouthwash/fluoride. * Missed Diagnosis: I requested my X-rays be emailed to me and saw a different dentist two days later. That dentist immediately identified a cavity on the exact same X-rays that Dr. John had looked at without saying a word to me. Cleanliness The office was extremely messy. I walked by the kitchen area, and based on the lack of cleanliness I saw there, I do not feel comfortable returning to a medical environment like this. Summary * Cleanliness: 0/5 * Customer Service: 1/5 The dentist himself was friendly, but the lack of communication, organization, and clinical thoroughness is a major red flag. read more

Wonderful staff!!! I feel so comfortable with them knowing I'm not getting scammed into unnecessary procedures. Thank you everyone !

First off, let it be known I absolutely can not stand to go to the dentist since I was a child. I have been seeing Dr. Zhang for some years now and I have never been happier with anyone else. He is very gentle and explains everything in detail. He is never in a rush and when your appointment is scheduled for a certain time, that is exactly when he sees you. Here's the best part, every dentist I have ever seen, always found something wrong be it a cavity a root canal etc.. etc.. yet all the years I've been coming here I've had far and i mean far less problems and that equals to way less money coming out of my pocket! Sheila his front desk secretary is amazing and goes out of her way to help and always has such a great attitude. All his staff are so nice and professional. I have recommended others to this office and they have recommended others as well. Great job Dr. Zhang and thank you for everything you do but especially to your honesty and integrity. read more

I recently changed dentists because my previous one was one of those HMO groups that tried to bill you for everything. After switching to PPO, I switched based on a recommendation from my son's orthodontist, and I'm so glad I did. The office runs smoothly, Dr. Zhang is conservative and knowledgeable, and it's so nice going to a small office again. Great experience overall. read more

Dr. Zhang, Continues to provide outstanding care for all our dental needs. Even though we moved to the beach, we still make the drive back to see him. He goes out of his way to accommodate us even on holidays and Saturdays - if needed. If your looking for quality care with excellent service from staff to a peerless skilled Dentist, then look no further and make an appointment. Sorry, if I sound like a commercial, but I'm just a very happy patient and satisfied sponsor for my family's care. read more

I am soooooo happy that I found Dr Zhang. He's very honest and patient with me. I have been going other very fancy dentist, but no one is as honest as Dr Zhang. He will tell you exactly what need to be done. Strongly recommend!! Come here if u want honest dentist! read more

The service is great! People are super nice here. Dr Zhang is always patient and very about every treatment. Strongly recommended.

Really impressed with this dentist. Was honest and informative. Exceptional job. Very skilled. Has the most up to date equipment and was super thorough yet gentle. Will go back for regular check ups and cleaning. Thank you Dr. Zhang! read more

Took the wifey in this morning to get a cleaning and have wisdom teeth extracted, there was no wait time at all. Dr. Zhang applied the numbing medication, a 3-step process, firstly with a cotton swab and gel, then an injection with a light dose of numbing medicine and lastly a stronger dose of numbing medicine. While doctor's assistant Megan prepped for the procedure, after a bit Dr. Zhang went ahead with the cleaning, the cleaning took about half an hour. After inspecting the procedure site and confirming with the wifey whether or not she was numbed, Dr. Zhang and assistant Megan then proceeded with the wisdom teeth extraction, after extraction, site was cleaned, gel was applied, and sutured. Dr. Zhang advised and explained to-do's and don'ts and medication intake. Follow up appointment was made, the visit was professional, polite, painless and smooth. We even got to keep the teeth. Thank you again Dr. Zhang and Megan, we will definitely come back. Highly recommended~ read more

John Zhang, DDS - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Claremont, California

Dr. Zhang had my first appointment today after he gave me program for some major dental work. His price was very reasonable and much better and more inclusive that my previous doctor. He explained what he was going to do that the atmosphere was calming and very comfortable. He concentrated on me and was not running from one office to another as I have experienced with another La Verne dentist. read more

I love my dentist and dental hygienist! This small office located in the Vons Shopping center on Baseline is cute and very clean. The staff goes out of their way to make sure I am comfortable during procedures and they are all very kind and very willing to educate you on dental care. As a Diabetic I am very grateful for their quality service. I get my teeth cleaned 4 times a year and the hygienist is excellent and very gentle. My teeth look amazing when she is done. Dr. Zhang is more than willing to go out of his way to explain procedures and treatments. WHile they dont really take my insurance they do offer me a discount on hygienist treatments because of my insurance. So happy I found them and they are on my permanent providers list! read more

I was with another dentist out of the area and he was constantly hurting me and not putting the anesthetic where it belonged leaving me in a lot of pain. I was really gun shy and didn't want to see another dentist because it caused me much anxiety. I am so grateful to the professionalism and gentleness I was shown with Dr. Zhang. I had a wonderful experience and will be returning. read more

Dr Zhang and his team are the best! They are professional, friendly and reliable. Dr Zhang is well informed on the science and discusses your case with knowledge but is down to earth. We moved out of the area and still travel to go to this office for any dental work. They are absolutely awesome. I would give them six stars if I could! read more

Love Dr. Zhang! I found his office through my uncle who said he received the gentlest cleaning he'd ever had. I had developed a bit of anxiety surrounding dental treatment after a lot of problems as a child, so a soft touch was important to me and Dr. Zhang did not disappoint. He is kind and patient and sets a calm tone for his office. Everyone who works there is friendly and accomodating, and go the extra mile for their patients. Dr. Zhang even bought my daughter a smoothie after he pulled out one of her teeth unexpectedly. Bottom line: Dr. Zhang is fantastic, I highly recommend him. read more

First time to the dentist in a long time so was bit nervous going in but Dr Zhang and his assistant Megan were really awesome! They walked me through every step and had really cool X-rays/scans that showed my jaw and inside my mouth so I was able to see exactly what they were working on. Super impressed and definitely made me want to come back sometime. read more

Thank you Dr Zhang and staff! We are happy to back to your office. Our experience with another dentist office was less than satisfactory.

Dr. Zhang and his team are amazing!! I came in for a cleaning and the extraction of three wisdom teeth. They were able to make my appointment in a timely manner, and Sheila was extremely helpful in confirming my insurance. I'm usually very nervous when it comes to the dentist, but Dr. Zhang made me feel extremely comfortable. I have a fear of shots, but his technique and bedside etiquette put me at ease. I didn't experience any pain because he was able to numb me in gradual steps. Mind you, this was my biggest worry- shots!! He checked with me throughout the entire process to make sure I was doing well. They even put Netflix on the tv in front of the chair to help me relax!! I won't be putting off visiting the dentist anymore. Thank you Dr. Zhang!! You and your team are outstanding. I highly recommend him for any dental work. read more

Dr. Zhang is amazing, best dentist I've ever met. We have been extremely pleased with Dr. Zhang and all his staff. Highly recommend this place. read more

Wanted an honest dentist. Went here and he wanted to replace four fillings with crowns. I asked wouldn't he need to grind down my teeth to put crowns on? He said yes, preventive in case the fillings cause issues with the teeth. Hmmm, never went here again. Let's see, who most would that benefit? read more

I love how Dr. Zhang and his team are always willing to work with me and my schedule! I scheduled an appointment that I was unable to keep due to my work schedule and without any hesitation they agreed to stay open a little later to complete my cleaning - they understood how important it was to me. It's rare to find a team like this one - one that is considerate and makes you feel comfortable. read more
