I'm very happy with my experience today. The staff was so welcoming and nice, and Dr. Karen was amazing. I was very nervous for my deep cleaning because I usually cannot handle pain and wanted to do numbing right away. Dr. Karen told me if we do that, we would need to split the cleaning into different appointments, and he said let's first try without it. Honestly, I cannot believe it, but I did the whole deep cleaning with no numbing and almost no pain. Only a little sensitivity, which is normal for my teeth. For the first time in my life, I did deep cleaning without numbing shots. Dr. Karen has very gentle hands and made me feel comfortable the whole time. For sure I will be back. Thank you so much! read more

I highly recommend Viva Smile dentistry. Karen did a grate job for removing my wisdom tooth . Thank you so much.

What an exceptional dentist! Dr. K. walked into the exam room and said, "What would you like me to do for you?". I was there for a cosmetic concern and a crack in my tooth. He listened and truly delivered. I was able to get my repair the same day. The entire appointment was only an hour. They have music and monitors/tv's above your head so that you are entertained while the work is being done. The office is lovely! I am pretty particular. Dr. K. was understanding of my quirks and my OCD and walked me through the process the entire way, checking multiple times on my satisfaction. They have a sign in their office that says "The World's Best Patients come here!". I think it's because they are treated the BEST! I am super happy...beyond happy. This is my go to place for all things dental at this point. They do it all AND they take my insurance. Perfecto! read more

Both viva smile locations are top tier best dentists you can get, Got my wisdoms removed it was fast and the dentist was calming even when I was nervous . Viva smile is top tier and I recommend them :) read more

I had all 4 wisdom teeth + 1 cracked molar removed by Dr. B. I was terrified going in, but all the staff reassured me that I was in Good hands. I opted for the IV sedation, and the needle in the arm was the worst part of the procedure (it wasn't even that bad!!!) I woke up to the sound of someone saying "Ok, you're all done!" That was 2 days ago, and im almost pain free with very minimal pain meds (800mg ibuprofen). I was expecting to be in much more discomfort but was pleasantly surprised. Dr. B. is definitely the best of his trade and the support staff is top notch. Would recommend to anyone. read more

There is no other oral surgeon out there that I would trust to extract my wisdom teeth. Dr Karen is THE best in the field! Also their staff is incredibly professional and their equipment is so high tech that you just won't find anywhere else. read more

The best dental office I have ever been too. All new high tech equipment very nice staff and the doctor is one of a kind. I highly recommend Viva Smile. read more

I called here to ask for a quote as I don't have insurance and need to budget. They refused to give me any sort of price range. I was told I must see their doctor first and then they could tell me, which of course was another charge. I have all the records and xrays from my dentist so there is nothing else necessary. I called several other oral surgeons who were able to quote me prices over the phone. read more

Best dentist in town! From staff to doctor these guys make every other dentist in town look like amateurs and sadists!

Dr. Karen Baghdasaryan is the absolute BEST!!!, in my opinion he is super star wiht magical hands(mostly no pain and no panic friendly treatment), cant believe his injection talent meaning you can't notice that he did injection on jaw bone, brand new office with great interior design, i have admired and advised about small suggestion for his office, he patiently listened and he said that he will implement, i was so happy that he has listened from patient, great guy will only listen from patients, in his office great smell like open air place, his staff is amazing, front office young girl is beautiful and 5 star response for my questions, his staff is always respond to my phone calls and quick too. Dr. Karen fixed my 2 implants fully with couple visits and 1 implant half done in Glendale office 3 years back, I have tried to other dental offices in Glendale for half implant fix, Dr. Vartan Karamian tried to help me in Glendale, he has verified and ordered implant tooth, after his visit one day what happened was while sleeping screw came out from my half implant and sat in my mouth, I was worried with screw and visited Dr. Vartan Karimian DDS, he said that he can't fix immediately and advised to wait indefinite days, nightmares seen, finally I have decided to search in google on Dr. Karen name and found in Granada hills office, i have called and got appointment quickly because of my urgency situation, their front office listened and given quick appointment and visited their office, thank god I caught Dr. Karen in Granada hills finally. he recognized me and gave me hug also, felt happy like brother. he took off old steel screw from my hand which is longer than needed and fixed with his short black screw, he said that short screw is good, and unfortunately my implant hole was closed almost because of without screw in couple days, he took care nicely and fixed and ordered tooth, I have waited almost one month for new implant tooth. I have lot of confidence on his skills, I wanted to know and ask where he was graduated, but I did not ask him, what an amazing doctor, fixed my half implant in 5 minutes and his assistance nurse is also great. I took a picture in his Granada brand new great office with him along with my daughter, here I am posting that picture also. I have asked question about my daughter(8-year-old) dental braces for best age and time, he has seen my daughter teeth and advised me that wait for couple years and look for orthodontist for advise, thank you so much Dr. Karen sir for that free advice without appointment for my daughter. Thanks to Dr. Karen and his staff, I'm completely at ease. Everyone in Dr. Karen's office is so caring and compassionate. I would give them all 10 stars if I could. A special shout out to young girl and assistants, for always being so kind and friendly. I have seen many dental doctors for 13 years in Los Angeles area, but Dr. Karen is different, super doctor, trust me, you can't see similar doctor like Dr. Karen, he is so compassionate and talent and quick treatment and dental care and good age(50 Years). I think he has special skill on anesthesia because he did many times and observed absolute dosage given to me, he will give anesthesia if required only, God bless you sir. I would not hesitate to recommend to my friends and relatives and if i have chance to visit dentist in LA, I will only see Dr. Karen. read more

I've been going to Dr. B for over 10 years. He's sensitive to your dental needs and handles all his customers with the utmost care. If you're looking for a dentist who listens to you, hears you and treats you like family, then look no further. HE IS AN AWESOME AND AMAZING DENTIST!!! read more

If you're on Yelp looking for a dentist because you haven't been in far too long and you're looking for confirmation, this is it. I hadn't been to the dentist in over 4 years and was extremely embarrassed and anxious about my first time back. I'm so glad I settled on Dr. Hovsepyan as she put me at ease right away. She never showed any sign of judgement and was patient and understanding. Following my visit with her, my insurance (MetLife), sent me a claim and said the office was out of network. I called the office and was sad to say I could no longer see them. The office manager (from the Van Nuys office) took my call and again, was incredibly sweet and assured me that despite being out of network I had no outstanding balance with them and anytime I was going to owe money, it would be discussed as an upfront cost. In the short time I've been seeing Dr. Hovsepyan, everyone in the office has been amazing. Despite being out of network, I am continuing to see the office as they work with you and in some ways this actually helped me. Glad to say I have found my new dentist after being scared for so long. read more

I am so grateful to have found this dentist. Dr. H and her husband (who is the oral surgeon) performed gum recontouring aka gingivectomy on my upper gums purely for cosmetic reasons, and can't say how much happier I am with my smile. Even after having braces more than 5 yrs ago, no other dentist offered the services for my gums. The staff including the receptionists and hygienists are so polite and helpful. I've had 2-3 cleanings done here, and I never experience pain. I also never wait more than 5min once I arrive for appts time, so they are definitely in top of being punctual. Even after months after my gum surgery, Dr. H said hello just to check up on me making sure I was happy with everything. I wish I had a picture of my before and after, perhaps I'll ask for a copy next time. Give this dentist place a try. Also, they give a starbucks gift card after your first visit/check-in, and the office itself is gorgeous and clean. read more

I highly recommend this place for multiple reason. First and foremost, friendly staff, very accommodating with scheduling. The doctor actually will explain what he's going to do and why before he starts, he even answers my sometime "dumb" questions that I have a smile. The place is really nice and modern, doesn't feel like your going to the dentist your great grandparents use to go to. And on top of everything they have a new machine for numbing, it's a damn laser!!!!! Which means no shots and numb mouth after you leave!!! I have sensitive teeth cause I'm a smoker and I don't feel a thing when he's working on them. Would highly recommend to anyone. read more

I love this place!!! Waiting time is good, schedule appointments are quick and easy. Everything went smooth the Dr. explains everything in detail, she was able to calm my anxiety and she is super friendly!!!!! read more

It was my first time here and I'm impressed! Staffs are all super friendly and professional! The doctor was nice and patiently answer all my questions. The place is clean and nice as well with new equipments right there to do whatever they need to do for me. The only reason why it's not a 5-star in my onion is that there's no doors to close the room, maybe it's just the room that I was in cuz it's my first time and I need X-ray? I'm not quite sure. But it does get really loud that you can hear all the other patients conversation and feel a little lack of privacy per se? But that's about it. I'm coming back for deep cleaning next week, wish me luck! I'm just really afraid of going to dentist read more

Very thorough dental practice. I really enjoyed the company of every single individual. Dr. Gohar Hovsepyan made me feel so comfortable with every procedure that was done with to tooth. She explains before any procedure. Also the front desk is amazing went above and beyond to get insured for my whole procedure. She was literally on top of it. Will continue to come to this office for sure. Any questions you can ask and they'll do the best they can for you. read more

I recently had all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled at the same time by Dr. Baghdasaryan. I was expecting a painful experience, but instead it was nothing like that at all. The day of the extraction Susana (the dental assistant) and Dr. Baghdasaryan eased my worries and addressed any concerns I had. My recovery afterward was met with minimal pain and discomfort. read more

Dr. Gohar and Dr. Karen are amazing, they have a very modern equipment, the office is beautiful and super clean And the ladies are so nice and kind. Love this place ! read more

Ok so I have only had horrific experiences with dentist. So I haven't been to a dentist for about 10 years. I knew at this point I was going to have another horrible experience because of my lack of care. Thanks to others like me (afraid of dentist in general) that took the time to write a review for Viva I took a chance. This was the BEST experience EVER! First, from the first call to make the appointment I felt cared for. They took the time to understand my situation and squeezed me in so I wouldn't have to wait and be in pain any longer then necessary. Next the visit, they did everything they could to make me feel welcome and comfortable. Ok so now let's talk about the actual dental experience. He was very calming. I immediately felt like he knew what he was doing, knew what I needed, gave me several options, and even took the time to educate me so I truly could make the best choice myself. I had not had anything even close to that experience before. So as I said earlier I was in for a serious issue. I ended up having to have a crown removed, cut out the roots, bone graph, and several stitches later I was done! I felt nothing!!! So again my fault I couldn't get the prescriptions filled for several hours. When the Novacaine wore off I was in a lot of pain. Totally my fault. I filled the prescriptions and an hour later I was fine. I woke up this morning with no pain. Viva will be my dentist for life and I will be going regularly because I can. If you've ever had a bad experience that keeps you from taking care of yourself then you must give this dentist a try. It will change your heath and your life!!! read more

I don't mind driving all the way from DTLA to go the best dentist! I found Dr. Hovsepyan thanks to a good friend of mine. After having some bad dental work done while I was in college my smile was in need of severe help. Dr. Hovsepyan was able to repair a crown followed by removing two implants that were poorly placed. I'm in the process of getting braces and finishing off with three new perfect implants. Couldn't be happier with their service professionalism and how welcoming they made me feel. They take the time to explain everything in detail before having you agree to anything. The office is super clean and everyone has a friendly simile and appear to enjoy their job, something that is hard to find these days. Wouldn't consider going anywhere else. I highly recommend paying them a visit for all your dental needs. read more

Viva Smile - Love vibe in the office - Oral Surgeons Near Me - Granada Hills, California

My previous Dentist was in West LA and I live in the Valley. Recently, I was looking for the best Dentist in the Valley and after much research I found THE BEST! First of all, the staff is amazing and they explain everything in detail, so you won't have unexpected charges later. The office has a Spa like setting and the best part is when you sit in your Dental Chair. They have Big Screens with beautiful scenery like Santorini and Ireland. The background music is calming as well. You won't see a giant needle staring at you when you sit down, while listening to someone getting drilled on next door. It felt like they really go out of their way to make you feel at ease. I couldn't feel when the Dentist gave me a shot and this was one of the best experiences I ever had at a dental office. So much so, I had to write this long review! read more

I'm so extremely happy with this office in it's entirety. From the office itself to the people and Doctors. When you walk in you're greeted by the front desk Mar, amazingly sweet, efficient and competent. The office is emaculatly pristine from front to exam rooms to the bathroom. When I first came in it was just a routine exam and I was thinking of getting Invisalign. I spoke with Dr Hovsepyan and she walked me through step by step of all that needed to be done. She took her time and is a perfectionist, which I love. She made sure I understood the process and let me ask a million questions, her passion for what she does radiates when she speaks. She makes you feel so comfortable. Her and her staff are exactly where you need to be for dental work. If I could give them a higher rating I would. Thank you all for all you do! read more

This place is amazing!!!!! First time here abs I am already I love wit the place. Starting with the amazing lady at the desk who not o my welcomed me with a smile but also got some hair tips from her to the lady who took my X-rays and the amazing conversation she has to the amazing Dr. Baghdasaryan who explained everything in detail and made me feel good about the plan to take care of my teeth. I have found my dentist for life!!! Looking forward to seeing this amazing people and work on my teeth. Very very excited. read more

Took my 89 year old mother for the first time visit after her dentist had retired. Could not have had a more pleasant time. Staff is delightful and Dr. H is so compassionate and realistic about care that is needed. I would drive from Santa Monica for myself if I didn't have a great dentist already. read more

Have been a patient of Dr. Hovsepyan for 3 years now and I've never been disappointed! From cleanings to extractions to even my full ortho treatment, Dr. Hovsepyan has delivered exceptional care and attention. Little by little my family has began to see her and they all rave about her. Her office staff is also wonderful and you are treated as a part of their family the minute you walk in. I can keep on writing wonderful things about this office but just do yourself a favor and book an appointment!! You won't regret it. read more

So I hate the dentist.....don't most people....haven't been in years. A few years back, I broke a tooth leaving only the root. It desperately needed to be extracted, so I decided to check out yelp for a good dentist. I originally found their van nuys location, but Dr. Hovsepyan told me about their new location in granada hills, so I decided to check it out. I made an appointment and drove from Encino. The facility is new and looks great! I was greeted by Dr. Baghdasaryan and his staff. I filled out the patient form and was seated in a room within 5 minutes. Dr. Baghdasaryan performed a quick assessment and the staff took the x-ray of my tooth. He explained the procedure and what he was going to do. The local anesthetic was placed is 2 places and was numb within 5 min. He extracted the tooth and I literally did not feel a thing!!! It was crazy. I was in and out within 20 minutes. The staff gave me some gauze to clot the extraction site, as well as some instructions on what to avoid for the new few days. It cost me $150 for the surgical extraction as they waived the xray examination charge since I was a new patient. I have already recommended them to my sister. I will definitely be sure to come back for any future dental needs!!! read more

I am so lucky to have Dr. Gohar Hovsepyan as my dentist! She has taken care of my entire family, even putting braces on my kids. I trust her work and her advice completely, and all of her work has been outstanding! I will never go anywhere else other then Viva Smile. I highly recommend! read more

Dr. Baghdasaryan is an absolutely amazing dental surgeon. After putting off the removal of my wisdom teeth for over 10+ years and after seeing multiple dentists and dental surgeons who told me either they won't risk doing the surgery or that I would have permanent nerve damage (due to the fact that the bottom ones were too close to the nerve), I am beyond happy with my decision to go with Dr. Baghdasaryan. Both he and his wife (Dr. Hovsepyan) were so gentle knowing how scared I was about the whole process. He pulled out all four of my wisdom teeth yesterday and I had heard so many horror stories that I was expecting to have a level 10 pain from a scale of 1-10. As I said, I got it done yesterday and since yesterday I've been at a 2-3 on the pain scale. It's more discomfort than pain. Very minimal swelling, which makes the healing even faster. I was in and out of there in no time. I'm so glad with my choice of going ahead with Dr. B, that I will definitely recommend any and all family and friends to him. Thank you so much to both Dr. B and Dr. Hovsepyan. Best husband/wife duo team!! Oh and by the way, their new office in Granada Hills is so beautiful. Congrats on the new place! read more
