The dream experience I have had with this practice began when I called in crisis over a temporary crown that was tipping over the edge into root canal. I said to the merciful angel who received my call that "I'm sorry you're meeting me at this point in my life, but my patience is at an end." She, Dr. Bandary, and his team were kind to find a time to schedule me in for later the same day. The dental assistant, with whom I exchanged book recommendations, got me a blanket and neck pillow as they're playing Jack Johnson at a perfect volume as one overlooks a leafy panorama. Dr. Bandary, around whom this remarkable practice orbits, has a gentle and considered demeanor. He listened to my long neurotic explanations. He gave me time to fully arrive at the decision to move forward with the root canal. I didn't even realize that I needed time to think through the decision. He did. The procedure itself - by the way, I was not on any narcotics - had me in a state of elation. He is expert at his chosen art form. It was pain-free, brief, and I laughed through it. Orchestral. Go in part to see what's possible in life. 11/10 read more

First, the office: Light and spacious. Procedures rooms have floor to ceiling windows with a view. So much nicer than staring at a wall. Staff: competent, pleasant and professional. I did a fair amount of hiring and training and noticed that right away. Had a brief talk with the doctor about hiring philosophy, it's apparent the office reflects a mature business and people philosophy. Doctors: I saw Dr. Banduri , very explanatory, he even whipped out out a big plastic tooth to answer a question. No sense of hurry. While I can't judge technique he seemed very careful and methodical, I have confidence in him that he cares about the outcomes. There are several doctors in this practice which was highly recommended by my wife's dentist. You can go here with confidence! read more

I had the most pleasant experience at Oakmont endodontics! This is my second root canal but my first at Oakmont and I will definitely be returning if I am ever in need of work again. Dr. Bandary quickly got me in, I was in so much pain. He explained everything about my root canal so thoroughly with me. He was extremely gentle & understanding. I felt so much relief and I haven't had any issues since with that tooth! The office is beautifully designed, everything is so clean & organized. I felt so comfortable there. They have all the latest equipment and Dr. Bandary really made sure to test out my tooth and asked all the necessary questions to ensure his treatment was accurate. I'm so thankful for this office and would recommend to anyone I know! read more

The bar is set as high as it can go at Oakmont Endodontics. I was initially referred to Pasadena Endodontix where I was told my tooth needed to be pulled (halfway through the procedure). So I did some online research and chose Oakmont for a consultation in hopes my tooth could b e saved. Dr Bandary is extraordinary. Although I had nothing to add except 'yes' he made me feel like I was part of the treatment plan as he decided how he would proceed to save my tooth: he did save it. The Staff is Angelic, the office is bright and uncluttered and the equipment is State of the Art. Thank you Dr.Bandary. If I could give you a hundred stars I would. read more

From the moment I walked in, the entire team at Oakmont Endodontics made me feel welcomed and at ease. The office is spotless, modern, and calming - exactly what you want when you're walking into something like a root canal. The staff were professional, friendly, and genuinely attentive. The endodontist and assistants were incredibly skilled and took the time to explain everything, making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. They were gentle, focused, and clearly knew what they were doing. I honestly felt like I was in the best hands possible. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. read more

After putting off my dental health for years, I got to a point where I needed two root canals and could no longer eat. I was referred to Oakmont by my general dentist and decided to give them a try after seeing the flawless reviews. I want to extend a big thank you to Dr. Bandary. Everything about my experience was perfect. The office is clean and presentable with all the best equipment, staff and reception (Karena) are sweethearts, scheduling was easy, parking was plentiful, communication with my general dentist for follow-up work was great, etc. Dr. Bandary is a master of his craft. He took extra steps to ensure I was comfortable and adequately numb before my root canals (this has been a problem for me in the past). He explained everything in detail and answered all my questions before and after. He is gentle and precise with his work, and his bedside manner made me feel valued and properly cared for. You're in amazing hands with this place so do yourself a favor and schedule your appointment asap. read more

I always take the time to thoroughly research before making any decisions, particularly when it comes to my health. I came in for a consultation feeling uncertain about what my next steps should be. I feel so fortunate to have found Dr. Bandary. His blend of expertise and genuine warmth made my visit incredibly positive and gave me the clarity and direction I needed moving forward. read more

Absolutely one of the very best dental experiences. The communications, care, and professional attention I received from the entire team was beyond all expectations! This was my first dental experience with Oakmont Endodontics, and I have to say from the very first communication/call with Karina, meeting Dr. Bandary and his professional team, Shelby and Becky, I was more than impressed with all the care and attention in making sure I was comfortable, relaxed, and informed about the entire root canal procedure. Additionally, the new technology used to perform the root canal surgery was impressive and made the procedure more comfortable than I was expecting. Thank you for making my first visit with you for root canal surgery a professional, comforting, and successful experience. read more

I was terrified to get a root canal. (I had never had one...only heard about them) just the phrase "root canal" had me in a state of what I fondly call "cat panic". After delaying my appointment for a few weeks, I finally went to see Dr. Deema Daher/Saad. She is an absolute professional, and a specialist in her field. The office is immaculate, with state of the art equipment. She was so calm, friendly, and explained everything in detail prior and during the procedure. I literally felt no pain. Even the recovery was very easy. I highly recommend this office if you are in need of a root canal. Everyone who works here is kind and professional. I never expected I would say this, but thank you Oakmont Endodontics for my root canal! read more

Dr. Bandary was so gentle when doing my root canal that I dozed off and took a nap! Even before that, he was wonderfully kind, explaining everything very thoroughly, and answering every question I had. This is the first one I've had, and he was great at demystifying everything and making sure I was comfortable. All of the staff were friendly, kind, and professional. They love what they do and will tell you so! Great and accommodating with scheduling and prepping you for the exams. They made sure I understood all the costs and insurance coverage, and everything that was happening. When I came out of the procedure, they had water and ibuprofen waiting for me. I never thought getting a root canal would be such a positive experience! But it was at this office. read more

I'm in my 60s and hadn't had a root canal for 25 years, so trust me here, I wasn't looking forward to it. Throughout my life I've had problems with my teeth, so I keep them very clean, flossing, and brushing frequently. During the pandemic, I slipped in the bathtub and was concussed, cracking one of my prized upper molars. I had to have it extracted. Ugh. You need your molars! Well after 2 1/2 years of the tooth on the opposite side, doing all the work, this upper bicuspid got infected and was ready for a root canal. I found Dr. Bandary on Yelp . He was God-sent. He received his undergrad degree from USC and went to the UCLA School of Dentistry. We established a root canal would be needed through a series of the most modern x-rays I have ever seen. He has invested a lot of money in his practice to make everything state of the art. A technician merely aims a hand held apparatus at the outside of your mouth and clicks a picture. No uncomfortable, plastic and metal need be held in your mouth while they take an x-ray. For the sedation, I don't use a topical, and one wasn't necessary anyway, as his lidocaine injection was flawless. To allay any fears, he communicates with the patient as he works. I appreciated that. The tooth had an abscess, and in two visits Dr. Bandary had removed the infected roots, flushed out the opening so it would be absolutely sterile in there, closed it up, and put a temporary closure so that my dentist can now put in a post and seal it permanently. I rose from the seat smiling, relieved I had had such an intelligent and experienced endodontist to take care of a problem that, in all honesty. I had dressed for two weeks. Don't do that to yourself; when you go to a really experienced clinician, there is no need to be frightened. From start to finish : Karina and Shelby at the front desk to his assistant and Dr. Bandary himself, Oakmont Endodontics gets a strong 5/5 from me. I plan on recommending them to all our friends. Thank you, Doctor. read more

Undoubtably, the best Endodontics specialist. As painful as a root canal can sound Dr. Bandary makes the entire process so smooth & easy! Two years ago, I underwent three root canals performed by him, and during my recent follow up, the X-Rays were PERFECT. From his precise injection technique to his meticulous attention do detail -- every step is taken with the highest standard of care that I've seen from ANY dentist from ANY field of dentistry. I'm truly thankful to Dr. Bandary & the entire team for their continuous excellence & expertise. read more

Look no further! This is the best service you will find. My husband needed a root canal and they were able to see him right away. The attention that was taken to make sure he received the correct care and procedure was on point. The staff is attentive and professional. The root canal was done perfectly and healing was quick with minimal discomfort. The office was clean and well appointed. Karina will greet you and walk you through everything with patience and kindness. She will also call and check on you after your procedure. Thank you for making this a pleasant experience! read more

Dr. Daher was very kind, did pain free work, was very informative and answered all my questions. I usually put Dr's aback when I have many questions. I've been told it's unusual. I like to know exactly what chemicals are used, what metals are used, etc. I was very impressed with her bedside manor. Also Shelby, the dental assistant was also stellar. What a great team. Shelby was kind attentive and also listened to my questions, fears etc and she totally made me feel comfortable and calm. A + work, and team. Thank you again. read more

Painless and easy root canal, I could not believe how easy this was to have done! Highly recommend.

I even don't know how to begin .All I can say is that I am so grateful for The Doctor and his amazingly kind staff.They accepted us ,it was for my 12 years old daughter, we were so devastated and scared of what was going on.They were so kind and patient with us All of the staff especially Carina,was trying to cheer my terrified daughter and even called us the next day to see how we were doing.I would strongly recommend this facility if you need an Endodontist.Dr.Narbeh and his team are wonderful.May God bless them all.

I don't write many reviews, but I owe Oakmont Endodontics a very thorough one because my experience at their clinic was quite frankly perfect. 1. Provided that you actually supply them with accurate insurance information (if applicable) ahead of time, you'll know upfront what the patient responsibility is right before any consult or treatment occurs and not be slammed with hidden costs at the time of payment. I appreciate their transparency and efficiency! My notoriously nightmarish luck with medical billing departments forces me to go out of my way to check things ahead of time in general, but with Oakmont, the whole process was seamless. 2. Karina spoke with me on the phone a few times, and she was kind, understanding, and patient about all of my concerns. I wanted an estimate on what I might pay if I were to receive treatment at the clinic (she also let me know that she would not be able to give an exact quote as she of course couldn't exactly diagnose me on the phone) ahead of time, and she delivered despite her busy schedule. I noticed that when she called me back, it was basically right as they were closing; I never want people to work even a minute past closing and am grateful for the fact that she went out of her way to ensure I heard back early enough to get my funds in order. 2. I also spoke with Shelby on the phone at one point, and she was the person assisting Dr. Bandary throughout the procedure the day of as well. She was also incredibly patient and empathetic. One thing I want to note is that when I asked about COVID hygiene practices at the clinic as someone living with high risk individuals, she immediately offered to wear a KN95 mask. Typically, I settle for air purifiers as many medical facilities seemingly have stopped masking, which forces me to be extra cautious at home after exposure; this was the first time that the staff at a clinic offered to mask, and it means so, so much to me. I actually was fully prepared to ask at the front desk the day of just to confirm that they would remember their offer to mask, but when I went in, Shelby was already wearing one and told me she would inform the doctor prior to beginning the actual treatment. I was blown away. I'm used to healthcare professionals invalidating my concerns, not respecting them. 3. Shelby was also very gentle with me throughout all the diagnostic procedures (high tech!) and the root canal treatment I received. She walked me through everything, and even the way she knew to guide me throughout the facility was effortless. It made everything feel much more accessible, and having had rather terrible experiences in healthcare settings regarding issues of consent or being straight up dismissed, it was wonderful to be cared for so thoroughly. I wasn't nervous in the least. (I should add that even through the very end when I was paying, she went out of her way to let me know that I'd maxed out my insurance benefits for the year and should expect to pay a lot out of pocket for my crown at my regular dental clinic.) 4. This clinic even offers you headphones to help you stay occupied with something else through long treatments. They even have adapters/dongles to complement your mobile device. In fact, they actually ask you if you need one; I didn't ask for it first or anything. 5. I feel incredibly fortunate to have met Dr. Bandary. First, he answered all my questions thoroughly and put my mind at ease, referring to the actual x-rays on the screen so I could follow along. Second, I'm no stranger to being numbed for dental treatments, and the anesthesia is the part I always fear the most due to horrid experiences I've had with dentists jabbing me very aggressively. Dr. Bandary has a steady, gentle hand and administered the injections beautifully. They barely hurt! When he tested my sensitivity with what looked like some kind of ice, I felt absolutely nothing, which meant that he was able to numb me successfully in one go. I'm not always so lucky. As for the actual root canal treatment itself, it was completely painless and as efficient as that kind of thing could possibly be, I'd imagine. 10/10, if I had to get another one in the future, I'd book an appointment with Dr. Bandary again. He's clearly as skilled as all the other reviewers have said. 6. I also didn't experience much pain other than the expected, unavoidable bit of tenderness in the area after the treatment. Dr. Bandary gave me some painkillers to take regardless, but I really have been fine. I no longer have the excruciating toothaches and other peripheral pains associated with that tooth. I can take hot baths again, and I can drink water without wincing. It's been pretty much a decade since I've started living with some level of pain in that tooth, and I cannot express adequately how relieving this has been for me. If you're on the fence about this place, you should just go ahead and book an appointment. Thanks, Oakmont read more

Dr. Bandary and his team has exceeded my expectations. After having to come in to have a re-treatment of my root canal, I was very nervous to have to go through the process and get another root canal. It was discovered that I had an extra canal that was missed during my first root canal so I was sent to see this specialist: I have to say the level of care and attention of detail that Dr. Bandary had provided me was amazing. This is by far the best root canal experience I have ever had with little to no pain. I had very little to no discomfort. I hate needles and Dr. Bandary always made sure that I was comfortable and felt no pain during procedure. It was two procedures in a course of a couple weeks I was told from the very beginning that there was a 50-50 chance of my tooth being saved but Dr. Bandary said he would try his best. And now after coming to my follow-up and looking at the x-rays we discover the procedure went extremely well and exceeded his expectations. I'm so happy with that. I highly recommend coming here for all your root canal needs. They are very knowledgeable and provide great patient care. read more

See all

Dr. Bandary is a livesaver my story has started year ago I went to many dental offices and nobody knows what's going on so, I spent time, money with no benefits until I called Dr.Bandary he is nice actually when I called him I was crying. He opened his office in the middle of night to see me and he spent an hour diagnosis where is the pain. He did the X-ray by himself. Words can't explain how much appreciated I'm to meet him. Because I'm MFA student and I couldn't even study but he helped me. He is the best in town. He is honest, professional and expert to find what 5 dentists couldn't figure out. I can't say anything because words aren't enough to say thanks. read more

Oakmont Endodontics - This is a photo after I finished my tooth - Endodontists Near Me - Glendale, California

Dr. Bandary did a complicated tooth reabsorption root canal on me and I couldn't of asked for a better dentist for the job. He was realistic with the expectations on the longevity of the tooth and was very transparent. I was low key terrified of having a root canal since I've had past dental work where they didn't numb me enough. I got the nitrous oxide gas and he numbed me well. I didn't feel a thing and it made my experience very comfortable. This was my first and hopefully last root canal. I high recommend this office they go above and beyond to adjust to your needs. read more

Dr Narbeh Bandary never disappoints and always saves my teeth! I reccomend for anyone that needs root canal done, go to him, do not soend your money to general dentists that will do a half ass job. Dr Narbeh Bandary is the ONE to go! Thank you for always doing an amazing job, I appreciate! read more

So when you get the news that your 9 year old needs a root canal due to weak enamel development, you freak out!!!! You are told you have to find a endodontist that treats children. Then when you research pediatric endodonist we find that their are not many to choose from. I took a chance bringing my 9 year old to Oakmont Endodontics. I was very nervous for my child. Dr. Bandary and his staff and the nicest, kindest team ever!!!! My child's experience was almost pleasant!!! She was comfortable and treated with gentle hands. I am so grateful for the service she was given. read more

You saved me Dr. Bandary! So thankful I got referred over to this office. I was able to get a quick appointment and be seen in a beautiful, beyond clean facility. I've always had the worst teeth and now after my second child it seems things are getting worse. I had a very tricky root canal done and honestly didn't feel a thing. He made sure I was comfortable and pain free. He explained that perfection is the only thing acceptable and he would make sure I wouldn't have further issues with this tooth. I mean, who likes getting dental work done. No one, but its so important and I would 100% recommend Dr. Bandary and his amazing staff! Thank you so very much! read more

They saved us after a dental procedure gone very bad. They saved the tooth with absolutely no pain. The doctors and staff have been available anytime we had a follow up question. This is my NEW dentist!! read more

I was referred to Oakmont Endo by my DDS for a suspected problem with a crown. Narbeh's staff took a digital X-ray of the tooth, and he came in and reviewed the imaging. After a thorough discussion and consult, I left feeling relieved. There was no problem, after all. The $100 flat fee for the visit was well worth it. read more

Dr Bandary and his staff are the finest Endodontic team imaginable. I know it sounds crazy to write a review of a root canal but this team is great. The only thing I felt was Dr Bandary putting a Q tip in my mouth to prep for the anesthetic. Totally painless. The good Doctor has an amazing touch and a great depth of knowledge. If you have to have a root canal do it here!! read more

I wrote a review of Dr. Bandary a few years ago but I felt compelled to write another because he is so amazing I had to share my recent experience. He is the most caring, knowledgeable and talented endodontist I've ever gone to... and I've been to quite a few! We all know how painful the numbing shots are but I barely felt anything. He talked to me a long time about options and possibilities for the problems I was having with my teeth. I can't say enough about him and his wonderful staff. If you have a choice.... Go to Dr. Bandary. You won't regret it! read more

My dentist referred me to Dr. Bandary for a root canal procedure last week at Oakmont Endodontics. When I arrived to the office, I first noticed how clean, modern and updated the office was. The entire space was in brand-new condition, from the lobby area to the patient rooms. Apart from the stunning office, Dr. Bandary and his staff were extremely friendly and kind, and made the entire process comforting. The doctor was very knowledgeable and explained my condition, the procedure process, and the post treatment plan before we even got started. The actual procedure was smooth and pain-free, and I felt comfortable the entire time. The doctor explained a few things I could do to relieve any pain after the procedure, but I experienced no pain whatsoever. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Bandary and his staff, and will refer him to friends and family for any and all root canal procedures! read more

The endodontist, Dr Narbeh Bandari successfully retreated my tooth no. 18 by redoing the root canal. I was suffering from a severe sensitivity to the heat on tooth no. 18, which had been treated endodontically in the past by another endodontist. Dr Bandari skillfully performed root canal by using state of the art technology, called Gentle Wave, his knowledge and expertise and rendered an excellent treatment, completely reliving me of the lingering and agonizing pain I was suffering for over two years. I can honestly say that Dr Bandari provided an excellent quality of service. He is a top-class endodontist, and second to none. He is very reliable and trustworthy. The endodontist really does care about helping the patient in any way he can. He is very experienced and professional in his job, addressing all the concerns very quickly and efficiently, treating you with decency and respect. I highly recommend Dr Narbeh Bandari to anyone, looking for a stellar top-notch endodontist. read more

So fortunate I was to referred to Oakmont Endodontics. From the moment I stepped into the office, I was treated with kindness, compassion and professionalism. The staff are considerate and welcoming, Dr. Bandary is fantastic. They made my initial apprehension of root canal dissipate within minutes. The procedure was painless, I walked out feeling like I had the best treatment possible. The office is immaculate, and is equipped with state of the art equipment. I was so glad I went there! read more

Dr Bandary is the Endo to go to. Dr Bandary was beyond amazing.I had previously went to another endodontist, & unfortunately had a bad experience. It was the worst and most painful dental procedure I've ever had. Dr Bandarys root canal treatment was completely PAINLESS and at times I felt very sleepy because he was so gentle. For this being a more complicated molar especially. He answered my many questions & Dr was very aware know of my nervousness and was frequently asking if was doing okay . He can handle anxiety in patients very well. He never made me feel rushed. The overall atmosphere was relaxing. You can tell that this man really cares about his patients and is overall a good human. I love that they immediately offered me pain medicine to take home. Although I felt practically painless after. Oakmont went above and beyond. read more

I came here last month for root canal on last molar. I was very nervous because it was my first. Dr. Bandary was very patient and informative. He calmly answered all my questions (i had a lot). Office staff was kind and informative. Dr. made every effort to keep me comfortable and constantly communicates to me what he was doing and why. Very highly recommended! read more

No one wants to go through a root canal treatment ever, but once you find yourself in this circumstance then Dr. Bandary is the one to call. He has outstanding chairside manners. Competence & kindness go hand in hand in his practice, & what I appreciate the most is the honesty of the treatment needed. Thanks for taking such good care of me in my time of need. read more

No one ever wants to get a root canal, but if you need one, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Bandary. He has great communication skills and manages all your expectations during each step of the procedure. I literally felt NO PAIN and even in the hours after the procedure, totally forgot I had any procedure done at all. I am writing this review the day after the procedure and I have no swelling or pain. I would describe myself as a "control freak" patient who asks lots of questions, and I felt empowered by Dr. Bandary as he described my before x-rays in detail and answered all my questions with kindness and expertise. He checked in with me throughout the procedure and I was able to give all thumbs ups. Despite what is actually involved with cleaning out a tooth canal, everything was as gentle as possible and I am still shocked I literally felt NO PAIN. After the procedure, he showed me all the work he had done on the x-rays and explained the shape of my canals and what I was looking at on the screen. His assistant Diana was great too! And all his equipment is digital and new and very modern. The office is spotless and impeccably clean. I had originally been referred to another endodontist in La Canada, but was put off by how aggressively my primary dentist insisted I see "his specialist." I did my homework and did unannounced visits to three other endodontic practices in the Foothill, Pasadena, Glendale area- ones that took my insurance and ones that did not. I had read horror stories online from folks who had to get a root canal redone because they weren't done right the first time. So for me I wanted to find someone who I could trust to do it right the first time, regardless of cost. That being said Oakmont was fair and upfront with all pricing so I knew exactly what to expect. No upsell, no add-ons, or unexpected fees. From the moment I walked into Oakmont Endodontics, I knew I was in the right place. Dr. Bandary is a great listener and handled all my rapid fire questions and even gave me an office tour. He was completely unphased by the fact I just walked in to check things out. Other practices were confused I popped in without an appointment. When you are in pain and in a vulnerable position, you want to be in good hands and feel confident about your doctor's expertise and intentions. Dr. Bandary met and exceeded my expectations. Dr. Bandary is skilled, trustworthy, and delivered a high-quality endodontics experience. read more

Okay when I first went to my new dentist I told her I was in extreme pain. She then broke the news that I needed 2 root canals and I needed to see a specialist immediately! I found Dr. Bandary and he fit me in right away the same day. He was amazing and went right to work to locate exactly what needed to be done. Honestly I will break my own teeth to go back to him. Professional, informative and painfree! Also he's very easy on the eyes I smiled through my entire root canal. read more

What is your first reaction when the dentist tells you that you need a root canal? Fear? Anxiety? Worried? And then you ask, is this going to hurt? Well as a general dentist, I do a lot of root canals but there are some that are extremely challenging and impossible to do. This is where Dr. Bandary and Oakmont Endodontics come into play. I refer a number of root canals to them and my patients reaction? "Amazing, painless, seamless, relaxing!" Really a root canal was relaxing? "Yup!" Without even a hesitation. Dr. Bandary loves what he does and he is damn good at it. His only flaw? He's a perfectionist. His root canals mirror his beautiful office. Every detail is premeditated and intentional. Don't believe me? Go see for yourself. I hope you won't have to but if your are in need of a root canal, read this and trust me. I'm telling you he won't disappoint you or I would never have referred my patients there or they would never come back. Thank you Oakmont Endo for all the hard work! Cleanliness- A+ Bedside Manner- A+ Quality of work- A+ Office Staff- A+ Cost- A+ -Dr. Foodie :) read more

My 90 year old Mom came in today for a root canal. She was very happy with her experience. Thank you Dr. Bandary.

Stop. Don't look any further! Dr. Bandary has done two root canals for me. I highly recommend him. I never once felt ANY pain before, during, or after my procedures. Both times! I even fell asleep during the procedure. He uses a high powered microscope and is very gentle. There is NOTHING to fear. He makes it seem so routine. He probably could be a brain surgeon. Root Canal = Dr. Narbeth Bandary! Look no further. Great staff as well. Thank you Oakmont Endodontics. read more
