Today was my first day back to a dentist in over 5 years. Luna helped with my X-Rays and Vision helped with my cleaning. Dr Will and his staff are amazing. I will be back soon for my follow ups. The office is clean and the staff are friendly and helped me stay calm. I've never liked going to the dentist but Dr Will and staff have changed my mind. read more

Dr. Grella is hands down the best dentist in so many ways. Best bed side manner and truly honest and compassionate about what he does. They don't make dentist like him these days. Long story short... my daughter had a dental emergency and needed to see by Pediatric Dentist. He got on the phone and personally helped me call someone that was available and willing to help. We were truly touched by such a gesture. Hands down the best. read more

If 10 stars was an option, that is what I would give to Dr. Grella and his amazing team! I have been a patient of Dr. Grella's since 2020. In that time I have had the best dental care a person could ask for. There is a phrase, "shadow of a leader". That phrase is easily seen in how the team at Dr. Grella's office works. From the top down, they are professional, courteous, funny, kind, responsible, and 100% patient focused. I have used Dr. Grella and his team as an example of how a medical/dental practice should operate when I've had issues with other physicians and their staff. I whole heartedly recommend Dr. Grella! You will not be disappointed!! read more

I visited Dr. Grella's office for the first time last week! Everyone was very nice and welcoming. The hygienist (so sorry I can't remember her name) was fantastic! She was cautious and communicative through out the X-Rays and cleaning. My cleaning was efficient and thorough. Dr. Grella was also very nice and informative. He slowed down to answer questions and explain everything I was asking about. I'll be back for my next cleaning next year but I encourage anyone looking for a dentist in LB to give them a call! read more

Level of care is not what it just to be. It feels now like you are part of an assembly line. Before you even close your mouth the dentist is gone and the cleaning crew is there cleaning the room for the next number. Rush, rush, rush out of the way. read more

Very helpful, informative, knowledgeable team. Great experience overall! They let me know every procedure and explain them in a simpler understandable way, Catherine is a very nice understanding and polite person who helped me with all my questions read more

All I have to say is everyone is so so nice. You walk in and leave the office with such kindness from everyone!

At First I Chose Dr. Will because of being open on Saturdays... But it's a lot more than that.. They are caring, engaging and they've Listened to any Concerns I may have... I Feel Comfortable and at Ease and that's not easy for me with other Dentists... The Staff is really Great and I'm Thankful and Grateful for My choice and I highly Recommend them to Anyone.... Thanks Dr. Grella! Cassy Hood read more

My entire family of 9+ goes here! I've been satisfied so far w their services. Got a filling today and dr Grella did an amazing job. The numbing medication hurt but I loved the technique he used. Made the experience less daunting especially cause I have a neg zero pain threshold. My cleanings are amazing. My teeth always feel nice and clean after. Now it's just a matter of making sure to floss. So far I've had Lou and Vision and they're super nice too and the ladies at the front desk. read more

All of the 5 star reviews for this dentist are absolutely deserved. The staff were, kind, friendly and knowledgeable. They saw me on time, actually slightly earlier than my appointment time and were able to schedule follow ups quickly. read more

Dr. Grella and his staff are second to none. I went for my initial consultation and I feel very confident that we're going to have a successful outcome to my dental issues. Everyone is friendly, professional, accommodating. I could not recommend this Dentist more. First rate. read more

Just like you all .. I yelped the "Best dentist" in Long Beach and Dr. Grella popped up! He was awesome when I met him, UCLA grad, and actually does yourDental exam unlike most Dentist who just check your teeth for 2 min. He was so sweet and really cared about my Medical history and myself as a first time client! The two Ladies at the front desk were amazing and Kathy helped me set everything up! I had a newer hygentist, Jaqueline, and she made me feel so comfortable, and if I needed to take a break she would do so. BEST PART - FREE- teeth whitening if you check in on fcbk and I'm so excited to use it! Also, I had a filling on a SATURDAY !!!! Dr. G was so sweet and told me to call/text him a few hours later so he knew I was okay from the numbing. Most dentist would never do that on a Saturday!! So excited to call Dr. G my new dentist!!!! read more

I have the worst anxiety when it comes to being at the dentist. Being referred to Dr. Grella really was a blessing for me. His staff is amazing and welcoming. Dr. Grella always tells me what he is going to do and always asks if I'm ok. This will definitely a dentist office I'm sticking with. read more

Great Professional Easy to work with Explained the whole procedure & helped my anxiety. Dr Grella is highly recommended!!! read more

Dr .Grella, Michelle and Catherine are all Wonderful people. Dr. Grella is the utmost professional but also very friendly and down to earth. Michelle is gentle with the cleanings and xrays. Catherine is patient with me as our schedules are crazy busy. Would recommend them in a heart beat!! Thanks for the smiles read more

Dr. Grella is a great dentist and I highly recommend him and his practice. He is very calming and will gladly take the time to explain anything to you or answer any questions you may have. My wife and 2 adult daughters are his patients as well. My daughters continued with Dr. Grella even when they moved away from Long Beach. Dr. Grella's office staff and hygienists are all great as well. I have been a patient of Dr. Grella's for several years now. I "inherited" him when my previous longtime dentist retired and Dr. Grella took over the practice. I was concerned about starting with a new dentist but I couldn't be happier with Dr. Grella regarding his quality of work, knowledge of dentistry and his friendly patient skills. Even as Dr. Grella's practice has significantly grown over the past few years, his attentiveness to each of his patients has not diminished at all. With Dr. Grella, you get a dentist who stays abreast of advances in dentistry practices and technology, while providing a friendly, small-town approach to his patients. Parking is easy and free. read more

Dr. Grella and staff are fantastic! Front office is super nice, and our all time favorite hygienist, Kaylin, is now here and we couldn't be happier. read more

SOOO nice , and knowledgable. My new dog ate my bite guard, and I don't have insurance. They got me in fast, and their price is beyond reasonable. They also used the latest technology to scan my teeth digitally instead of using the archaic mold. Glad he was recommended to me. read more

I moved to Long Beach and was looking to replace the dentist that I had for 13 years and absolutely loved (in Seattle). Dr. Grella and his staff were exceptional and exceeded expectations. *I was impressed with how easy it was to schedule an appointment, including using text and email to proactively communicate. *I arrived early, in case I needed to complete any additional paperwork beyond what I had submitted electronically, which wasn't necessary. *Since everything was in sync, I was greeted by the doctor early which included a nice conversation to establish rapport and get my background. *My X-rays were then taken quickly and painlessly! *Dr Grella reviewed my images, answered my questions, gave a personalized approach to my problems, and had the right balance of a personal and professional exhange. *I got my teeth cleaned and polished and was out in a quick and efficient manner, with the friendly staff wishing me a a good weekend as I left. Every single person was friendly and operated with care in their jobs. I would highly recommend this office. read more

If you are looking for a dentist, this is the spot! Dr. Grella is a wonderful dentist with a great manner and gentle touch. Kaylin is the best dental hygienist. They both are thorough, professional, and care for their patients. I am so glad to have found this practice. read more

Seriously the best dentist & dental team anyone could ask for! (And I don't say that lightly.) TIME: Just wanted to add that Dr Grella actually offers flexible hours and alternative appointment times, which is a big reason I love this office. (Yelp doesn't allow him to add this option, for some reason.) If you need an early 7 AM appointment before work, or a Saturday visit, they will accommodate you! You just have to call and schedule it. How amazing is that? I don't think any other office I know of is so understanding of everyone's various schedules. PATIENT COMES FIRST: Doctors say this but so few truly practice it, in my experience. Before seeing Dr Grella, two other dentists told me I would need a crown due to a crack in an old back molar filling. I got crown quotes from both of them and was feeling pretty miserable about the impending cost. Then a friend recommended seeing Dr Grella for a final opinion and I went. Dr Grella immediately went to work -- no nonsense or dawdling, but still explaining his observations and reasoning every step of the way. (I asked *a lot* of questions about various types of crowns, even 3D printed crowns, and he always answered thoughtfully -- never seemed bothered or annoyed by it.) While observing the crack in my back molar filling, he noticed that most of the tooth structure seemed to be intact. After drilling and cleaning out the old cracked filling, he verified that he was right about the tooth structure. Turns out I didn't need a crown at all -- just a new filling! He said nothing beats the original tooth; if it can be saved, it should. QUALITY: Michelle is the best hygienist I've ever had. She keeps comfort in mind (glasses to block splashes and numbing gel upon request), but doesn't pull any punches when it comes to deep cleaning. I'm the type who doesn't want a gentle cleaning, because that means not everything is getting dug up and scraped off. When Michelle is done, I can even feel how clean my gum pockets are. FRONT DESK: Kathy is incredibly nice and clearly makes customer service her priority. My dental appointments here rarely run late, but whenever they do, Kathy is apologetic and tries to get me in as soon as possible. LOCATION & PARKING: Note that Dr Grella's office is on the second floor (external stairs), first door ahead. Street parking is available. read more

I had been seeing Dr. Barnard who preceded Dr. Grella for 25 yrs. before he retired. He was an excellent dentist. And Dr. Grella, who he had asked to replace him is Superb! He does amazing work. Kathryn(office) and Sophia(CDA) I've known for many years and both are very compassionate(monetarily) and caring. I drive far to get high quality from them. You can't go wrong with Dr. Grella! read more

Kind, intelligent, non-judgmental, & all around best dentist ever. Staff is amazing. Dental hygienist is also stellar. This was a recommendation from a friend. I liked the office so much I moved my whole family over to this practice. 10/10. read more

Old crown came off-Dr. Grella (and staff) to the rescue! Examined tooth base and suspected some decay(!) So had x-Ray taken w/o crown; yep decay! Temporarily cemented old crown on and I came back NEXT DAY to clean and prep for new crown. Now waiting on the lab to make the crown. I like this dental practice for a number of reasons. 1) They have a sense of urgency when urgency is called for. Katherine was persistent in getting me an appointment to have the prep work done. She had already put in an insurance claim to reduce my expense as much as possible. 2) Sophia, Dr.G's assistant, personable and works to make you comfortable. 3) Dr.G explains what he is doing and WHY. 4) Dr. G is current on dental technology, the research on the newest/latest dental materials and techniques. He takes ongoing professional training. I have had dental issues for more than 60 years with 10 different dentists. Dr. Grella is the best of them. read more

Dr. Grella's staff is all very friendly as soon as I walk in! I appreciate whatever questions or concerns I have they address them. The suggestions they have given me in Improving my dental hygiene have helped a lot which saves me time and money! read more

Dr. Grella's entire office is great! He is an awesome dentist. I recently had my front tooth chipped, and George A (RDAEF?) was amazing. I was super nervous and he made me feel very comfortable, and did a great job at making it look like my original tooth. Sherry at the front desk is the sweetest. Highly recommend 10/10 read more

Hands down, best dentist in Long Beach! Not only is he thorough, but he is also personable. You'll never be bored or have awkward silence when he is working on your teeth. I have been his patient ever since he's started at this location and has not disappointed me. The only bad comment I can say is that he's super busy now and unable to do cleanings so I only see him for the yearly X-rays. read more

My wife and I just left the dentist and we love our new dentist. Very professional and knowledgeable and friendly. I chose him because he is a veteran as am I and knew he would probably run a tight ship and he does. I recommend him highly read more

Dr Grella is the best- We agreed to take the old filling out and put a new one today. The filling is great it was over before I realized. I am still amazed how experienced and what a professional Dr. Grella is. I feel I am in great hands with him and I know he is my dentist for life. read more

So far, the best decision we made to see Dr. Grella. He is caring, knowledgeable, explains everything, and takes his time to do the right thing and not do procedures that are not needed. The office staff is accommodating, knowledgeable, friendly, and competent. Even though today was my first visit, I am delighted! My previous dentist did not accept Delta Dental Insurance and was always a hassle to get reimbursed from my insurance, not to mention the outrageous prices he is (was) charging. Dr. Grella's office team is a well-oiled machine and works with you to get the best outcome. I will add more details as time goes on, but for the moment, a well deserved five stars. Given only today, I can 100% recommend this office who is looking for a new dentist in the LGB area. On a side note: Happy Birthday Sofia Castillo today, who also did an excellent job assisting, and so did everyone else. read more

DR. WILL and His Staff are very Friendly and Attention to Detail what I like about Dr Will he looks you Eye to Eye Great Communicator would Highly recommend Dr Will Homer D Griffis read more

This was the second time I'd been to this office. As before. I was taken quickly and my cleaning by Jacqueline and exam by Dr Grella was handled seamlessly. I've been very pleased with my switch to their office. read more

The best dental work I've received in all my 39 years! He asked if I was ok so many times throughout my appointment, and gave me breaks to be able to close my mouth for a minute! read more

I took my 91 year old mother to Dr. Grella. She needed to replace dentures, a bridge, and other work. I am overjoyed with the care and results my mother received from him and his team. She has a great smile, and her function is much improved. She loves going to the office for care, and is a walking advertisement for the office. The care and results are great. Our dental health is the best it's been in years. Thank you Dr. Grella. read more

A wonderful dentist and a very dedicated team! I've been very impressed with their work the last year since I switched to their office.

I really enjoyed my first time visit this morning. Everyone at the office was so friendly and welcoming. I had the pleasure of meeting George, Dr. Grella and Norma. They are so attentive and patient. Dr. Grella was very professional and still was able to get to know you and make you feel at home. My cleaning went so smooth. I will be back in 4 months for my 2nd cleaning! read more

First time patient here and from the moment I called I was impressed by the hospitality of the staff .
