Jay M Azling, DDS

Love Love Love this dentist!!! I’ve had my fair share of dental work, but Dr. Chen is by the bar the best. The shot was completely painless and the filling was perfect. The entire time I felt comfortable and at ease. Thank you Dr. Chen for making this a great experience.

I am a dental specialist (endodontist) that went to school with Jay (Dr. Azling) at UCLA in the 80s. I have to give him great kudos as I broke a tooth tonight and it is the ONLY tooth he did not work on for me back in the early 1990s. Everything he did for me then has been great for the last 25 years, and still going strong, which is absolutely amazing longevity… I have about 50 – 75 dentists that refer to me in Arizona but I thought of Jay when this happened, and kind of had a personal «chuckle», as I wish those referring dentists were nearly as good as Jay. I may just have to fly out to California to have him fix this for me as well. Believe me you cannot hope for a better dentist than Dr. Jay Azling. Although I have not seen him for at least ten years I know I am still better golfer than he is!!!

Been going to Dr. Azling’s office for one year now, and I have to say its thee BEST Dentist yet. Thanks to Dr. Azling and Amazing Staff I have received great treatment, and special care. Thank you for ALL you do for your Patients.

I left this office 9 years ago due to an insurance change and am tickled pink to be able to return to them with new insurance! How I missed the fantastic staff & Dr. Azling! When I was there this morning, I was cheerfully greeted by name, pampered with explanations of everything, a blanket, a Walkman to drown out the drilling noise, and and offer for post-​procedure orange juice and yogurt. Dr. Azling had to numb me up pretty good because the tooth was supplied by 3 nerves, and I swear I THINK I felt a teensy needle poke… maybe? I’m such a wuss with pain that I ask for numbing gel on my gums whenever I have my teeth cleaned… and getting anesthesia didn’t hurt at all! Okay, maybe the INITIAL poke, but even that was barely felt; Dr. Azling has the magic touch! I haven’t been here for a while, but I believe most of his staff have been there for a LONG TIME, and it’s no wonder — -the work atmosphere there is very positive! I’m not leaving anymore… if insurance changes & I can’t come here, I’ll find a way to pay cash! =) I can go on & on about how awesome this place is, but y’all will have to find out for yourselves. You won’t be disappointed.

My husband & I have been coming to this office for over 35 yrs! We started when the business name was «Martin & Vaughters» DDS, after Vaughters retired, it was Azling & Martin, then Dr. Martin retired @ 2006 and then it was Dr. Azling & Associates. Both of our kids started going here when they were @ 1.5 yrs old until they moved away from the city and were out on their own. We have never been disappointed with the care we received from the hygienist, Dawn, Dr. Martin or Dr. Azling, and dental assistant, Lupe. The front office staff is also very professional & knowledgeable. We watched Diana go from being single, to married & raising a family. This morning Dr. Azling put on my permanent crown. Dr. A is so gentle and caring. I have never suffered any pain, especially not when he’s administering the Novocain! It’s also not uncommon to receive a call from Dr. Azling the evening of the procedure, just to see how I’m doing. I have referred lots of friends & co-​workers to this office and they all were very pleased & continue to go this dental office. Extra care is always taken to assure patients of the cleanliness & sterile utensils & equipment. My family & I would highly recommend Dr. Azling & Associates for all your dental needs.

I used hate going to the dentist, i’ve been going here for about 3 years they take care of all their patients the office staff is very courteous and polite. I have referred my husband and my best friend and looking to refer more of my friends. Thay make my expieriece so easy that i actually look forward to getting my teeth taken care of.

This is a great dentist’s office. The staff is first rate. Dr. Azling is personable and listens well. I have a phobia when it comes to dentists. All my fears are put to rest here. Our family including my wife and mother-​in-​law have been coming here for 20 years. The best dentistry can be.

I have been a patient of Dr. Azling’s for over 20 years… It’s hard to believe both of us are that old… And even with all of my moves all over Southern California, I continue to drive to Cerritos and remain a patient. The trust I have for Dr. Azling is unwavering. Chatting with the front office staff is a pleasure. My cleanings are completed efficiently using today’s technology. What more could you ask for?
It may be cliché to say I leave the dentist’s office with a smile, but it is the truth!
Some people are petrified of the dentist. Not me! Dare I say, I even look forward to it!!!
Thanks to Dr. Azling and his wonderful staff.

Dr. Azling’s team is the best. I have been receiving dental care here since 2000 and Jeannette is the best! She helps keeps my gum recession in check without any pain and provides solid recommendations on how to manage my sensitive teeth. I am very grateful to have found this awesome dental practice.

I have been coming here for years. I am very grateful for the hygienist Jeanette, she is very professional and super nice. Everyone here is very professional and work with your dental needs. They truly do care about their patients. I recommend them to all my family and friends.

Thank you Dr. Azling for making my dental experience a good one. I appreciate how you explained why I need to get what done. Out of the dentists I have been to you were the only one who spoke to me with sincerity and honesty. I truly appreciate that. Thank you very much to the helpful staff especially Feli who was so caring and encouraging not mention very patient. Everyone in the office is so professional and knowledgeable. Awesome office to keep going to for years.

I found Dr. Azling by calling 1800Dentists as I was looking for a local dentist. It was the best call I ever made! The front office ladies are warm, professional and efficient. The professional staff are caring, friendly and know their business. Dr. Azling is the ultimate professional. After my first visit, he actually called me at home that evening to see how I was doing. I never had a dentist do that kind of follow-​up. I was sold that I had found a great dental office and after 8 years my opinion hasn’t changed. I also like the Christmas collection the office sponsors for under privileged children. My daughter has a fear of dentists and after hearing me rave about Dr. Azling, she made an appointment. She’s now a convert too and we tell all our family/​friends about the office. You won’t go wrong booking an appointment!

Dr. Azling and his team are amazing! After several years of going to subpar offices around the Cerritos/​Artesia area, I was referred to Dr. Azling’s office, and my family has been getting cleanings and pain-​free procedures done here for the past 12 years. You will experience outstanding dentists and office staff, a beautiful and CLEAN office, and appointment times to accommodate a busy schedule. This is my only Unilocal review, as I feel strongly that people should know how wonderful a dental experience can be!

I had been seeing Dr A for a couple of years and knew that he did outstanding work. But I had to pay myself since I had no dental insurance. Last November my employer offered a group of us dental insurance through Cigna HMO. Wow. I thought. It took me a while to find an HMO dentist that I felt I could take a chance on. I did and I saw her a few times and I guess the work was OK, but something made me feel uncomfortable. Then I asked for a print out of what work needed to be done. A few fillings and a crown. But she said because of my «in the way» tongue she might have to put me to sleep. Oh no ya don’t. I took the list back to Dr Azling and went over it with him. I trust him explicitly. He called my attention to the fact that she was charging me $ 500 more than he was going to charge me for a crown. And I didn’t need that done. Point of this story is I’m back with Dr A and I saw him yesterday. He started on the crown (put in temporary) and filled a cavity next tooth over. The professionalism, perfection is outstanding. I would highly recommend him. The staff is incredibly friendly, helpful and genuinely concerned about your well being. Yes, I’m back with him. Dentistry is expensive, but when I was in the chair I thought to myself its good to be back and have total confidence in my dentist. Thanks Dr A.

Super friendly staff! Dr. Azling incorporates new technology with dentistry.

Why aren’t more people rating this stellar Dentistry PRactice! Ahhhhh! Come on Unilocalers. Do what you were born to do (that’s Unilocal!).
Well, I haven’t let another dentist in my mouth for 20 years. Dr Azling and his staff of warm and personal professionals, along with state of the art procedures, products and treatments, make for the perfect practice (alliteration intended);-). And the place is immaculately clean and cozy. Headphones, TV’s, the «Happy Pill» for you scaredy-​cats… it’s all there. I would drive across state lines for this dentist. And that’s saying a lot (I hate driving in CA). If I weren’t a gentleman, I’d say that you just aren’t that bright if you don’t go to Dr Azling… but that would be rude… sooooo, I’ll just say, check them out, you will never go back to your regular dentist.

Let me put it to you this way, I would rather run a marathon than go to a dentist (mind you, that’s coming from a semi-​couch potato). I absolutely detest it!
Finally, years of neglect has finally caught up with me, my sister in law referred me to Dr. Azling.
At the initial consultation, Dr. Azling (BTW, he’s Cutie!!) was upfront with me, explain the situation with my teeth and gums. He made me realize that there are consequences of not going to the dentist regularly and sometimes can even be life-​threatening.
Anyway, he caught my anxiety and nervousness. I dont like needles and that hook instrument they used to check your teeth with. I cringe at the sound of it scraping my tooth! He was patient with me.
After coming here for almost 6 years now, I can now say that I can go to Dr. Azling without the anxiety.
I love Kelly, my hygienist, their front office staff. Everyone is so friendly and eager to help.

After catching myself sucking around the same two molars for quite some time, I realized it was surely time to see the dentist. My usual experience is HORROR, so please understand why I’ve spent the past couple of years neglecting my oral health.
The last root canal I had performed at WESTERN DENTAL (Please never ever ever ever trust them with anything more than a cleaning and xrays!), resulted in a poorly fitted crown that fell within the first few days!!! Anywho… I’ll leave that story for a review on their business.
Long story short, the entire process was THERAPEUTIC. I was given a pillow to ease my neck and a blanket to remain comfortable within the excellently air-​conditioned space. I was also given headphones to listen to music. Whoo! No messy splattering during the drilling process. They anchor a splatter guard (I’m not sure what the technical term for it is), so no tooth particles, water, or slobber end up on/​around your mouth.
Dr. Azling has a gentle touch and is THE BEST at administering local anesthesia! He took a bit longer than any other dentist I’ve seen, but I could tell he was doing it in increments and was paying precise attention to where he was injecting. Not once did I feel pain/​significant pressure! That is really important for me, since this is the FIRST time I left a dentist without feeling the urge to hurl (anxiety)…enough to make my mind up to sticking to this office FOR GOOD.
I’ve had one root canal and two fillings done here. Today’s appointment was for my fillings. My root canal was performed last year and thanks to an amazing composite build-​up, I can wait to save up for the permanent crown.
If you are serious about your oral health, I recommend you visit this office. The staff is amazingly courteous, and genuinely sweet, despite a tragic half hour tardiness on my behalf (oops! It’ll never happen again!)
Dr. Azling will help you to figure out a plan of attack and get your mouth back in shape. Next week, periodontal cleaning. I have a minor case of gingivitis. Gah! DO NOT IGNORE YOUR MOUTH IF YOUR TEETH LOOK GREAT. I have always gotten compliments about my smile, but just because it looks healthy, doesn’t mean it is.
Now GO! Make your appointment! What are you waiting for?! Also, if you can’t afford all your treatment, ask about CareCredit! They’ve got you ;)
P. S.- They gave me a complimentary water bottle upon leaving! I’ll update with photos later. You would never guess that such a nice office would lie within that business structure.
