Robert Jecmen, DDS

My entire family has been going to Dr. Jecmen’s office for years. When my now 32 year old daughter was 10, another dentist told us that she needed a binary device. A friend suggested we switch to Dr. Jecmen. Dr. Jecmen said no way would my daughter need that. She never did need any orthodontics and her teeth and smile are beautiful. Now my kids have kids and we all go to Dr. Jecmen.
He is gentle, kind and very thorough. His staff is so friendly and competent.

I love going to Dr. Jecman; he and his staff go above and beyond! Juliette always calls a day before to remind you of your appointment, no matter if she has to remind you on Sunday; that is dedication! Carmen is always very helpful and both dental hygienist are great!
I have seen other dental professionals and they always comment on how well my dental work has come out… Thank You Dr. Jecman!

Dr. Jecman is not only kind, but very professional. When I had my visit for removal of a molar – Dr. Jecman was very kind and called me the next day to see how I was doing. I had a dentist phobia after previously being orally attacked by a previous dentist (Dr. Norma Baca’s office in LA). After visiting his office my faith in dentists was brought back to life. From the receptionist to medical assistants… everyone is great at this office. Wonderful experience!

Dr. Jecman runs an outstanding dental practice! Appointments are on time, even early. No waiting around. The office is clean and organized. An essential factor that others tend to neglect.
Office staff is friendly and efficient. All the details, e.g., insurance docs are already taken care of. As a patient all one must do is show up.
As far as the actual procedures go expect a pleasant experience. I had a root canal done on a wisdom tooth and actually fell asleep. Absolutely ZERO pain or discomfort. The post procedure pain meds prescribed were barely even needed.
All in all, you may find a higher priced dentist with fancier offices, but you won’t find anyone better.
Dr. Jecman, don’t you dare retire on me!

Maybe it’s just me but I actually love coming to the dentist. I’ve never had a bad experience with any dentist. I I’ve been coming to Dr Jecmen for about 4 years now. I can’t say I’ve ever had a bad experience with them. They call me a few days before my appointment. They send me a postcard reminder a few weeks prior to my appointment. Everyone there is very friendly. They really do take care of me. Julia the receptionist is awesome. Makes you feel welcomed. I found this place by calling 1800 dentist. Told them my insurance and where I lived. It’s an old building. The elevators looks a bit sketchy. It almost sounds like it’s about to give out soon but. it hasn’t yet. Don’t worry its up code and it gets checked regularly. (So I hope) jk. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a Dentist. They really care for their patients here. Thank you Dr Jecmen and staff.

I have known Juliette since grade school and for the past several years she told me I should go to Dr. Jecmen. I didn’t because I felt loyal to the dentist my family and I were already going to, plus Dr. Jecmen was further from home. When I needed a root canal, and my dentist told me he needed to give me a referral because he himself did not do the procedure, I decided to call up Juliette and make an appointment with Dr. Jecmen. I was very nervous about having what I had heard is a painful procedure. Imagine my surprise when all I felt was a small needle prick and the next thing I know Dr. Jecmen was telling me my root canal was done! He is so painless, very thorough and will never rush through anything due to being a perfectionist. Needless to say my family and I never went back to my original dentist. My teenage sons have no problem with having to go to the dentist now because it is so easy and painless. He is SO worth the extra 15 – 20 minute drive!

When you think about a dentist appointment most people get scared, anxious, and annoyed, not my family. We have found the best dentist office! We drive a ways but it is so worth it… just knowing that Juliette’s beautiful smile and curly locks will greet us at the door. Then Carmen will walk us back to a cool comfortable room with soft rock playing and beautiful seascapes on the television. As you are settling in to your comfortable chair Dr. Jecmen will walk in with his brilliant smile and caring eyes. He is always honest and does his best to keep you from feeling pain. Doctor has been known to sing along with the songs playing and Carmen is always on the spot if you begin to drool or need to spit. If you are lucky you will get to hear the quirky fun laughter coming from Juliette as she greets other patients.
I always recommend my favorite dental superheros to everyone so you can blame me for having to wait when you schedule your appointment. I will say it again it is worth the wait, the drive, the time to go and see Juliette, Carmen, and Dr. Jecmen.
Not only am I a loyal patient, but my boyfriend, ex-​boyfriend, ex-​husband, son, and many friends are all happy patients with lots of smiles!
See you there soon and say hi to Scuba Steve in the fish tank when you go!

Dr. Jecmen is truly the best dentist that I’ve ever met! I have been to several dentists over the years and I’ve developed a fear of these people! I’ve been to some offices in which the dentists were beyond unprofessional, often insulting patients’ intelligence! I was tired of sub-​par dental work that had to be repaired by other dentists and at this point, I had given up! I don’t have bad teeth or a crazy smile but when it comes to a person’s smile, it could elevate or deflate a person’s self-​esteem.
I forewarned Juliette, (his receptionist), Dr. Jecmen, and his hygienist by explaining that I am a nervous patient. My adrenaline is so high that the anesthesia wears off quickly and I am often given more injections just to ease my pain. Dr. Jecmen was so patient and welcoming that he did not make me feel like an idiot. Compassionate would be the best word to describe Dr. J! He is also a perfectionist so expect to be in his office a while because you are a direct reflection of him when you leave suite 310! He does not use amalgam, silver, filings because they are not aesthetically pleasing. Dr. J. even takes his own x-​rays because he wants them done right!
When my teeth are cleaned by his hygienist, she takes this task seriously! I have never had such a thorough cleaning like this in my life. She is very knowledgeable and very friendly. Even when I’m not in the mood to talk because of my fear of the dentist, she always puts me at ease. I don’t even remember what we talk about because I am so relaxed that my 45 minutes in the chair goes by quickly!
The only thing that concerns me about Dr. J. is his age. He’s not old and frail but I do wonder when he’ll retire. A good dentist is hard to find and as long as he’s practicing dentistry, he will have me as a patient.

Dr Jecmen is the best and most patient dentist period, I have been going to him over 30 years and my kids also, he is patient with me because i ger impatient in the char long periods of time, he even stayed till 10 pm wnen i had a wisdom tooth that he had to do special root canal for 5 hours because of bent roots hand filing it, I have never heard of any other dentist with his patience, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

One word to describe this dentist. Awsome. Dr. Jecman is the type of dentist I wish I would have encountered a long time ago so that I could have avoided all the dental problems I now have as a result of the fear of going to the dentist.
Well needless to say, I’m sticking with Dr. Jecman because he’s professional, doesn’t try to upsell you and will even try to save a tooth if he’s able. I had a wisdom tooth that needed to be pulled that I put off FOREVER and I must say that not only did he do an EXCELLENT job but even called the next day personally to see if things were going okay after all of the work I had done that day.
I have more work that needs to be done and I don’t have the fear that I used to have of dentist anymore. His staff is also great as well. The office is quiet, very clean, well run and relaxing. The whole experience has a personal touch that I find lacking in many dental offices these days.
I don’t want to be told lies and sold dental packages that I don’t need, which was the case when I visited several dental offices before Dr. Jecman. I politely passed and they never even touched my teeth thank god. I’m so glad I found this dental office.
This is the kind of service that will keep me a loyal customer and also refer friends and family. If you’re looking for a straight forward dentist that does good work this is the place. Yeah, other places may have all these fancy gadgets and gizmos that a lot of people deem as «cutting edge» and «updated», but I care more about my teeth and the customer service I receive.
I’m definitely getting the rest of my dental work done here.

Well, sometimes you wonder if you can trust the reviews on this site… But this guy is old school, straight talk, no pressure upsale etc. and office is nice clean with good energy. Nice but no so fancy as to make you wonder if your bill is paying some insane rent.
People on the way out the door gave rave reviews so I made my decision after much research.
And Juliette has style and a smile. He even did some Things which Lowered my bill by saving what could be saved. No fast food service here.
Wishing I came here earlier. Like five years ago when I was avoiding the dentist, the sceptic as I am of the system and paperwork required to get work done.

Good luck people.

Back in July my old dentist in New Mexico discussed getting my 15+ year old amalgam fillings redone. He noticed signs of decay and plus my teeth were starting to become quite sensitive and bothersome. So, I looked on Angie’s list and Unilocal for a dentist that would accept my insurance and had great reviews. If I really needed fillings redone and additional fillings (because my molars have really deep grooves in them), then I wanted to just get this whole process over with as soon as possible.
My first appointment was Oct. 23. It was an exam, x-​rays, and consultation visit. Of course I needed my fillings redone… The left side of my mouth was worked on first on Oct. 25. Much to my surprise, they quickly finished the right side just this morning (Oct. 30).
This being my third dentist, I can honestly say that the three recent visits have been my best dental experiences. This is for three main reasons: 1) Juliette, the receptionist. On my first visit, a routine exam and x-​rays on my fillings, she was quite efficient with my paperwork and admitted quickly an overcharge that happened on my second visit. She’s a hoot to talk to. 2) Carmen, the assistant, is super sweet and efficient too. She even offered me a blanket because she noticed I was cold natured. 3) Dr. Jecmen is wonderful at his job. He is quite thorough, but gentle at the same time. And I should know since I’ve now had both sides of my mouth done with fillings on two separate visits. (Many shots and some drilling!)
I have not had any issues with my teeth so far.
There isn’t hardly ever a space in the lot behind the building, but parking at the front entrance along the street is usually available.
Their office is at the end of the hallway on the third floor. Use the stairs or the elevator.
Clean office, waiting room, restroom in the back (not the one in the hallway before you get to Dr. Jecmen’s office), and dental rooms.
The last dentist I went to always had quite a few kids screaming and crying. None here, but I’m certain they are tamed by the beach waves on the TV screens in each dental room. Or maybe Dr. Jecmen and Carmen prevent their anxiety well before it starts — which is easy to imagine. OR maybe it’s the soft 70s rock music playing in the background. At least Carly Simon was soothing to me. ;)
Finally, I know this is mainly for patients who have had minor dental work (like fillings, NOT cleanings), but Dr. Jecmen makes follow-​up calls in the evenings the day of your procedures. This is simply unheard of, although, deeply appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Jecmen’s office for ANY dental work, but they are a small office, so be prepared to schedule your exam and cleanings far in advance. For problems, they try to get you in as soon as possible. FYI — they aren’t open on Fridays.
Review #126

Dr. Jecmen is great. He does things right, he’s gentle, doesn’t rush his work. Juliette is awesome in the office, and Carmen is wonderful at the doctors side, assisting during procedures. The building the office is in is older, but the office itself is always clean, and the procedure rooms always nice, and kept pretty cool, unlike some places that think A/​C is only for August.
Another thing that I like, although it might be simply a coincidence, there have never been any screaming or whining kids in here. The last thing I want to hear when the doc is in my mouth is 3 brats fighting in the waiting room, or even 1 screaming from their cleaning.
They finally changed the carpet this past year, which makes the place felt much more comfy, now if only they would ditch these awful lights, and replace them with something more modern, and less harsh (in the waiting room).
Great dentists are hard to find, which is why I’m thrilled that I don’t have to look anymore!

A friend of mine was referred to Dr. Jecman via 1−800-Dentist about 15 years ago. Since then, about half of the people we work with have decided to use him. I started going him about 12 years ago and have been VERY happy ever since! Its So hard to find a great dentist and you can feel confident that Dr. J is one of those!

Years ago when I had an infected wisdom tooth, I called 1−800-Dentist and they referred me to Dr. Jecmen. And I NEVER went to any other dentist after that. This is by far the best dentist experience you will ever have.
Upon entering the lobby, you’ll find that it is particularly small and it has a little bit of a 1960s flavor to it. There’s a fish tank nestled in the corner, some magazines, and probably the best receptionist ever! Juliette will remember you for years on end once she meets you. She has a great memory. After she met me, she KNEW who I was every single time I called. When I come in for my check-​ups, as soon as I walk in the door, she says, «Hi Jenny!» I think that’s what’s so great about Dr. Jecmen’s office. There are only a few employees there. There’s no revolving door. You always see the same people and they remember you. I’ve had great conversations with all of them and they really make me feel comfortable.
It’s even better knowing that Dr. Jecmen takes his time and does the job right the first time. I’ve heard countless stories (and even experienced it myself), with people being rushed through dental appointments and having shoddy work done to their teeth. Not here. He’s funny because he hums along to K-​EARTH 101 when he’s doing his work. He’s very methodical and ensures you have a great result. I’ve never panicked when I’ve been in the chair and that’s saying something because I get anxiety attacks often.
I highly recommend Dr. Jecmen for any dental work. If nothing else, just KNOW that he’s the ONLY dentist that has ever CALLED me the evening after I had work done on my teeth. When he extracted my wisdom teeth – he called. When he filled a tooth – he called. Never in my life have I had ANY doctor do that. He took time out of his personal schedule, being at home with his family, to call me. That’s freaking amazing.
