Brian Ley, D.D.S. & Dental Associates

Dr Ley and ALL staff here are always such a pleasure and truly care for there patients! Katie at the front desk is so friendly and every time I visit I smile or laugh. You won’t be disappointed when you choose this office for your regular visits :-)

This office is a class act. From first impression, Katie is warm, welcoming, and immediately reflects the intelligence and dignity of Dr. Lay.
Dr. Lay’s Ivy League education is impressive, but his demeanor as well as his thorough and gentle approach to dentistry are just as valuable.
The entire staff were upbeat, friendly and fun to be around.
I highly recommend this office for any major cosmetic procedure or for just an exam and a cleaning.

Hi, my name is Michael, and this review is long overdue. Being with Aspen dental for nearly 17 years; I had very mixed emotions when my dentist was exiting out of general dentistry. Selling the dental business to Dr. Brian Ley. I“m more satisfied with my office visits and the professionalism of his staff.
If your looking or need a great dentist Dr. Ley is your guy. He is by far the best dentist I have ever had. Through fillings, crowns, root canals and any other dental procedures «I never once felt pain or discomfort.
He treats his patients as kind as can be, a great listener and is very wise to his craft. I’m going in next week for a cleaning and can’t wait to see the wonderful staff and the ladies at the front desk «who do a great job.
Again Thank you Dr. Ley and staff for my great teeth!

Dr. Ley is probably the best dentist I have ever been to. Before I would never like to visit the dentist but now I actually don’t mind going. Especially since he’s such a great person to deal with, quality of work is really good and has a great and knowledgeable staff. I would recommend him to anyone who needs to find a dentist.

I have a brand new smile thanks to Dr. Ley and I couldn’t be happier with it. The experience was amazing, everyone in the office was an upmost professional.

Dr. Brian Ley is the BEST Dentist I have ever had. I was referred to him through a friend when I moved from LA to Orange County, the first time I paid him a visit he examined me and told me I had 7 cavities and needed all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled. Of course I was nervous but something inside me made me feel very comfortable and secure that he was going to do a great job. I went with the procedure he filled my cavities and pull all 4 of my wisdom teeth in ONE DAY. I was completely fine afterwards no pain, barely any bleeding and went to work the next day. He called me 2 hours later to see how I was doing which was very nice of him. And recently I got my implant done by Dr. Brian Ley as well again great experience he’s very detailed, cautious, and a perfectionist which i personally love. The staff is amazing too love every single one them. I highly highly recommend Dr. Brian Ley you won’t be disappointed :)

Dr. Ley and his staff treat me like a VIP every time I come in. They are efficient, friendly and they do quality work. A special shout out to the girls who work the front desk too. Highly recommend the whole team. Thanks again for all you do.

I’ve been a patient of Aspen Dental for many years. Dr Ley is one of the best! The care for his patients goes beyond my expectations. He always calls as follow up to assure I am doing well. On regular cleanings and checkups, you can be sure of getting an excellent exam. If there is area of concern, they make sure to show you with a camera and explain the situation. I love the staff and they are always friendly and courteous.

Dr. Ley truly is a fantastic dentist. I avoided going to the dentist in the past because of really bad experiences. After having kids I decided that we needed to find a great family dentist that all of us could go to. I have been going to Dr. Ley now REGULARLY (a big deal for me) for the past 5 years. I honestly no longer fear going to the dentist. It’s evident that Dr. Ley genuinely cares about his patients. He has made sure that all of my procedures are done expertly and, honestly with little to no pain (and I am a complete baby about pain). He explains everything well, and does not do or recommend unnecessary procedures (unfortunately something that I have experienced in the past with other dentists). He is careful, very gentle, and as mentioned in another review — a perfectionist (which is awesome– he does everything so well!) In 2011 I called Dr. Ley’s office early in the morning in excruciating pain and needed an emergency root canal. Dr. Ley called me back immediately and he helped me get to a specialist right away to have it taken care of. Dr. Ley then called me the next day to see how I was doing, something that Dr. Ley often, if not always does –personally calls his patients after they have had a more serious procedure done to make sure that recovery is going well. I am not exaggerating when I say that my two boys (15 & 11) ENJOY going to see Dr. Ley. Dr. Ley jokes with them, and makes them feel completely comfortable. His staff is very friendly and wonderful as well! Let me just say, we are not a wealthy family by any stretch of the imagination. And, I have never had any issues with billing or outrageous bills, etc. Dr. Ley’s staff is always helpful and understanding. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Ley. We have found our family dentist.

Dr. Ley is awesome!!! The best needle shot I ever got. Didn’t even feel it. Dr. Ley took time to explain to me everything he was doing. I hope I didn’t annoy him too much with all of my questions. My friend goes to him and highly recommended him. He is the best dentist I have had so far.

Dr. Ley is AMAZING! I was referred by my friend Laura and after avoiding getting dental work done for the last 10 years I went in last week and it was pleasant experience from the moment I walked in till I left. I hate going to the dentist and Dr. Ley and his staff made my experience and beginning procedures a wonderful experience. They made sure I was okay the entire time.
TODAY especially on a SATURDAY after just getting my two crowns done on Wed I stupidly bit into something hard and cracked it and he came met me right away to fix it.
THEY ARE THE BEST!

I had TMJ pain for many years and had worn down my canines from grinding at night. Dr. Ley was able to fix them and made me a night guard. I no longer have any pain, thanks Dr. Ley!

Dr. Ley is amazing! I love this guy. He is a TOTAL perfectionist which is a good thing MOST of the time. I got really irritated when we had to send a crown back 3 – 4 times because it didn’t fit. But this guy is great. Amazing prices, great service. Angela at the front desk is one of my favorite people. She’s legit. Super sweet and knows her stuff. She told me she was moving to WA though :(. Augusto the dental assistant is pretty cool too, although his super big hands make it rough as a patient. He is kind of rough but a good guy. I refer all of my friends here and they love Dr. Ley too. This is coming from someone who has had root canals on all my back teeth, all crowns replaced by Dr. Ley, and tons of fillings done. OH! And the hygenist is amazing. She’s so sweet, super thorough, and she remembers everything you told her during your last visit 6 months ago. She’s incredible. Great place to go if you’re looking for an amazing dentist with great staff!

First of all, I am one of those people that hate going to the dentist. Dr. Ley was awesome… he was gentle, encouraging, and trustworthy.
Of course the staff was excellent, a warm welcome, they were on schedule (I walked in a few minutes before my appointment and as I sat down I was called to the back), and they offered me a blanket (even asked if I would like it warmed). The little things really make a difference.
As for the routine cleaning, haven’t had that yet — I’ll let you know in 6 months. :)

Dr. Brian Ley is a dentist who truly cares for his patients. After having some minor work done, he called me to follow up to see how I was doing and if I had any pain… AWESOME idea! It made me feel special and valued. When he was doing work on me, he was patient, answered my questions, and gentle as a deer as he numbed my mouth. I’ve had some pain before with other dentists, but Dr. Ley has the touch of an angel when he was numbing me.
The hygienist, Tanya, is equally patient and caring. When she cleaned my four year old son’s teeth, she gave him options of the toothpaste to use and helped him have a successful and thorough dental visit. This mama was a happy mama knowing she had gotten rid of all his tooth bugs! Plus, they used a camera to take pictures of his teeth and searched for cavities too. Luckily, there were none. :)
I highly recommend Dr. Ley to my friends and family when they are needing to get work done on their teeth!

After not going to the dentist for a few years, I found Aspen Dental just about the time Dr. Ley took over. Dr. Ley has been great and so have the staff! I have had fillings, a crown, and multiple cleanings done at Aspen, now, and all of my experiences there have been great. My wife and children have also all had good experiences with all of their visits for a variety of needs. I am a wimp when it comes to dentists and my kids were scared of going to the dentist because of some painful visits earlier in their childhoods; none of us worry about painful dental experiences anymore, though. Dr. Ley is very conscientious about his patients’ comfort. He also has impressive academic and medical credentials, so I recommend Aspen any time a friend is looking for a dentist.

I went to this Aspen Dental after seeing a flyer in the mail on December 7, 2011 @ 2pm. The work was so bad that I was in tears at the front office window complaining that nothing was different with the «zoom» proceedure even though my mouth hurt. They only did the front teeth and the back teeth were the same color still. The tech was more interested in watching the video playing on the old t. v that hung above my head. I sat there and kept choking on my own spit.
They asked for $ 175.00 dollars and I said no-​way for what? hurting my mouth? my teeth are still the same color? I walked out. They called and I told them again how unhappy I was and that there was no change in color. maybe the product was old?
Today i recieved in the mail a notice from M. Leonard & Associates collector Art Garland (818) 908‑8500 ext 1514 saying I owe $ 180.13 or it will go to collections.
I called and said again it was poor quality workmanship and no result… He told me to call Aspen Dental so I do… I ask to speak to the owner. The front office lady refuses to put me through and says if I call again she’ll report harrassment. I tell her I have the right to speak to someone about reporting me to a colloections agency. I ask for the owners name she says Dr. Ley.
This Aspen Dental is a fraud. Poor quality and no results. Clearly the solution put on my teeth was old or not what it was supposed to be… no whitening occurred my gums didn’t see any signs of solution either.
Now I have to take time and energy to fight this fraudulent company.

I’ve had bad experiences with visiting a dentist, but I was very impressed by this dental office. Very nice and helpful staff! I had a cleaning done, the hygienist was very good and explained everything he was doing. Then Dr. Ley came in and took a look at my x-​rays, explained what I needed and actually did some of the work right away (Had some cavities. ewww). The fees were manageable and accurate. I enjoyed my dental visit (which never happens) and liked the appearance of the office, which was very clean and peaceful.

This office is nothing but a sales job! I went there because of a chipped tooth & was told I needed 3 crowns & was quoted $ 5,001.00. I told them I was unemployed and their comment was «if you had insurance it wouldn’t cost so much.» I decided to get a 2^nd opinion and they fixed my tooth for $ 599.00 total (a very professional state of the art office in NP). Recently came home to find a $ 75.00 bill from Dr Ley for a same day cancellation fee which never happened! I would NEVER refer anyone to this office because all they care about is making $$$. Buyer beware!

I meant to write this review a long time ago, better late than never. I went here a couple years ago and I almost had a panic attack and started crying when they told me I had a dozen cavities and all these problems and that it was going to cost quite a bit to fix. I went to another dr for a second opinion and he said I was fine and that I didn’t need any work done. In hindsight, I remembered the hygenist at Aspen Dental going on and on about my expensive handbag, so I think they thought I was just some rich sucker that they could take advantage of.
