Dr. Latner & his team are awesome. Went for a cleaning and exam and went back a week later for fillings. Both appointments were flawless. All the staff are friendly and explained everything and answered all my questions thoroughly. Dr. Latner is friendly, funny and beyond gentle- I didn't even FEEL my fillings. : Will be back in 6 months for my next visit. Highly recommend this office for all your teeth needs.

Awesome experience. Dr Latner and his staff provide professional top notch service. I am 46 and have gone to my fair share of dentists over the years. I was looking for a long term family dentist and after my first and second visit I am glad to say my search is over. The most complete and thorough care I have EVER received. I cannot recommend him enough!

I've been going to Dr. Latner for about 10 years. Now my husband and two kids go there too. Dr. Latner has always taken great care of all of us. Recently I chipped my front tooth the day before a big presentation and Dr. Latner was able to get me in the same day and fixed it so well that I literally cannot even tell on my own teeth where the chip was before!
I was terrified that my entire smile would be permanently tainted but I am amazed that even I can't even notice! I did great on my presentation thanks to the confidence in my appearance that Dr. Latner restored. He's also been great for my kids (age 1 and 4), making each visit painless and fun. My 4 year old loves going and he has a lot of things to keep the kids entertained: little TVs in the dentist chair with Netflix and toys.
My 4 year old would sit there all day if we let her. Plus coffee and freshly baked cookies in the waiting room---what could be better?! The hygienists are also great too, even with my kids. I love this office and will never go anywhere else. Also great that their office has variable hours, so they accommodate you early mornings or late afternoons depending on the day so you can work it around your schedule.

Dr. Latner and his amazing staff are nothing short of miracle workers. I was treated with respect and dignity and always received exceptional service. Dr. Latner is a leader in his profession, the best dentist i have ever gone to. He explains in detail each process and is diligent in performing exemplary work, ensuring the patient is comfortable and pleased.
I would highly recommend his services. His assistant Eric is also a huge asset to this team of professionals. I wish i could remember the girls names in the office to give them recognition as well. You wont be sorry coming here.

Dr made me feel very comfortable about my root canal and put me at ease right away. He works quickly and efficiently, explaining each step of the process. I was amazed that I felt ZERO pain or discomfort. The office staff are all very professional, everyone made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. I would certainly return to Dr.

Dr. Latner and his team do a great job. Both my wife and I went to Dr. Latner for routine dental cleanings and the occasional crown or filling when we lived in LA (2009-2012). He and his staff were always friendly and professional and they did a good job explaining whatever they were doing once you were in the dentist chair (cleaning, measuring, or whatever).
They listened to our concerns, offered suggestions and options, but never pressured us into any procedure we didn't want or need. Scheduling was always easy. I think my wife had to cancel an appointment once or twice, but was always able to reschedule within a few days. The check-in/waiting area is nice (cookies and coffee are a plus!) though I never waited long after checking in. I would definitely recommend Dr. Latner to my friends, and if we ever move back to the west side of LA, I would be happy to go back to him.
