This has been my dentist for about 3 years now , they have always taken care of my teeth. They do everything with care from checking in to leaving. My daughter just turned one and they gave her the best experience at her first dentist appointment.

I was…read moretold I had multiple cavities and needed crowns, but after getting a second opinion from my longtime dentist, I was told I had no cavities. That major difference in diagnosis was very concerning and made me lose trust in the practice. Full story below: I chose this dentist based on the positive reviews, but my experience was very disappointing. One thing that immediately concerned me was learning that patients were being offered an incentive for leaving reviews, which made me question how genuine those ratings really are. During my visit, the overall atmosphere felt insincere. What was most upsetting was being told I had three cavities and needed crowns, despite having seen my regular dentist only three months earlier. That diagnosis did not sit right with me, especially because it seemed to be presented before a thorough exam, and when I asked questions, I felt dismissed rather than respected. Because I was uncomfortable, I followed up with my longtime dentist for a second opinion, driving all the way to Riverside because I trust him. I was then told I had no cavities, and that the only possible issue was an older root canal that may need to be redone. That huge difference in diagnosis left me with serious concerns about the accuracy and honesty of my visit here. I am sharing this because I think patients deserve to feel informed, respected, and confident that recommended treatment is truly necessary. Unfortunately, that was not my experience.

Por eso sigo eligiendo venir aquí, a pesar de que viajo desde tan lejos, desde Hollywood. ------------------------------------------ I sincerely appreciate how communicative and on top of the day-to-day operations the team here at Atlantic Dental are. Between the check in reminder texts and phone call updates leading up to my appointment dates (including the very helpful notices that there are sometimes earlier appointments available) my experience always runs so smoothly and hassle free. Upon my most recent visit, Samantha had me checked-in and ready to jump straight into my X-rays the moment I arrived - I didn't even have a chance to sit down in the waiting room. As a user of my company sponsored Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Samantha also had physical copy of my itemized receipt ready to go for me upon checking out and sent me home with a business card reminder listing the date and time of my next scheduled routine check-up appointment. Sitting for the X-rays are always my least favorite part because I always find myself gagging and getting watery-eyed during the prolonged periods I'm clenching down on the X-ray digital sensor. Thankfully America was lightning quick with both positioning the scanning device and clicking the X-ray button which lent itself to absolutely 0 occurrence. Last but not least, Lourdes: She always adds so much value to my visits every time I come in. Her precise and gentle handiwork never leaves me with bleeding gums and my teeth feel so incredibly clean and polished by the time I'm out the door. Her bedside manner is impeccable and I heavily attribute my dental health to the knowledge she consistently imparts upon me regarding the most optimal oral care maintenance for me and my situation based on the most up-to-date best practice available. Highly recommend!

I recently had such a bad toothache that the right side of my face was going numb, I was sleeping less than one hour per night and I could not drink ANYTHING for over five days. I was in denial, avoided visiting the dentist and took Tylenol so often as though I was eating M & M's thinking the pain would somehow go away. With that in mind, I put on my, "big boy pants" and visited my dentist to find out what the heck was going on with my tooth. Upon my arrival, i was welcomed back by the entire staff with warm smiles and greetings. The staff here are truly friendly, welcoming and professional. In less than three minutes of my arrival, I was lying on a dental chair awaiting the Dr. Yoon, my dentist. Dr. Yoon has this way of calming me down and getting me to relax immediately as she knows that my anxiety level is always high as soon as I step foot into her office. This visit was no different. Dr. Yoon examined me, had X-rays taken and immediately discovered an issue which would require the dreaded root canal. Due to my time schedule limitations, I made an appointment for a few days later and returned. At my next dental appointment, Dr. Yoon discovered that I had a fractured nerve and that this was causing a great deal of inflammation and was the source of my pain and numbness. Dr Yoon and her staff immediately got to work and in less than two hours, It was all done. The pain, numbness and my anxiety were gone. Wow! It felt GREAT to be painless once again. I have to return in two weeks for a permanent crown on the repaired tooth but the anxiety is no longer there and I am actually looking forward to visiting the best dentist and staff in the world. Thank you for the AMAZING service and care to everyone at Whittier Family Dental. I TRULY appreciate you all.

Great office, great staff! Will be coming here for dental work for many years to come.read more

First of all, I am surprised that I have never rated my experiences with Dr. Gutierrez and his…read morestaff. While living in Whittier (2009-2017), I worked in Beverly Hills as an office manager for a private dermatology practice. I knew I could receive a word-of-mouth (excuse the pun) recommendation with the expectation of a professional courtesy. However, I did not believe/feel I had major dental concerns, and I was not seeking to capitalize on perks since I had a PPO insurance plan. After doing some research, I found Dr. Gutierrez's office to be accommodating regarding my main objective: teeth whitening. His staff was open and honest when I called to make sure the office was a good fit. I found them straightforward and said they do perform teeth whitening; however, I would still need an initial exam. I did not find this approach erroneous. Why? I intended to utilize my insurance whenever feasible and cover any costs not covered by it personally. Putting it into perspective: taking my PPO out of the equation, a plastic surgeon will not automatically perform a cosmetic procedure at a person's request. A radiology center would not automatically perform a CAT scan of an individual's brain if they walked in off the street with a headache and agreed to pay for it. Why? Medical facilities do not work that way. Invasive cosmetic procedures or noninvasive tests fall within the spectrum of medical procedures and are typically performed by certified specialists; therefore, one can expect bureaucracy, red tape, and ethical considerations in medical care. If not an emergency, delays can be frustrating. But when pain and costs are involved, everyone's time is precious, so expectations of being accommodated can be subjective, even though patients are not to be blame for their issues. Therefore, implementing proper management when 'risks' are involved is crucial (I will revisit this issue at the end of my review). I was due for an oral tune-up (x-rays, cleaning, and consultation of recommendations). I chose to open up and address concerns about past dental issues. In 2004, for several months, I had a documented history of trigeminal neuralgia, which ended up being related to my 2005 confirmed thyroid cancer and not a cavity filling as initially thought. The filling was the least of my concerns compared to the many other neck/head medical issues I needed to address during those months/years. And so, upon our first meeting, I finally addressed any problem I had been evading (since I was in a 'safe' place) when Dr. Gutierrez was surprised to find a crater in one of my molars. The neglected molar was one issue, but I had wisdom teeth that could have interfered with my dental health (I knew this before establishing my dr/patient relationship with Dr. Gutierrez). He performed my teeth whitening and handled root canal treatments. Eventually, I signed up for Invisalign because costs were always my excuse for not getting braces. Although costs were no longer a factor, Invisalign was less expensive, less time-consuming, but also less permanent, because braces meant I had to have my canines pulled. After so many years of medical issues, less invasive meant more. The Invisalign option met my aesthetic interests on all levels. The only reason why I stopped seeing Dr. Guiterrez in early 2019 is that I permanently moved to Northern California. Bottom line, regardless of the number of my outpatient treatments, I found Dr. Gutierrez to have an excellent bedside manner and expertise. Again, having worked in the medical field, but more importantly, I have also been a patient who has suffered misdiagnosis (deemed as malpractice, but I chose not to sue), as patients, we deserve our dignity. Still, that being said, I did not find it offensive when his staff discussed aspects of my care (e.g., explaining the costs of procedures (billing), obtaining my signed consent, confirming follow-up availability options, scheduling the appointments, or checking in to explain whenever there may have been wait times). I acknowledge that some people may not have a good rapport with a professional, or that mistakes may occur that makes better sense for a patient to seek care from another professional; however, what I am stating from my experience throughout the years I was a regular patient is that there was no pattern of nefarious treatment or substandard care by Dr. Guiterrez and his staff. Anyone seeking medical treatment should always be aware that they have the right to a second opinion and should never apologize for seeking one. Still residing in No. Cal. I think of Dr. Guitierrez often and have contemplated traveling to reestablish my patient-physician relationship; however, I know that dentists are at the top of the list for evaluations and treatment should pain or emergencies be involved, and that evaluations and treatment cannot/should not wait; therefore, I have chosen to just keep my fond memories.
