Ocean Dental Office

Warm, caring, professional team of dental staff. Going to the dentist never was so enjoyable.

Great dentist. Out of several other dentist I have tried over the years this office makes me enjoy going. Definitely would recommend.

Best Dental Office EVER!
I was cursed with teeth that get cavaties no matter what I do. Which means I have been to A LOT of dentists over the years. So when I say this is the best dental office ever, I’m speaking from experience.
Dr. Khorsandi is amazing. She is very good, has a light touch, and didn’t tell me I needed a bunch of dental work that I didn’t actually need (you’d be surprised how many dentists do that…). She has the sweetest disposition — I actually look forward to going to see her.
The hygienist, Jennifer, is lovely as well. She too is a perfectionist, just like Dr. Khorsandi. She is meticulous, passionate about her work, and is an absolute joy. I know it sounds crazy — but you will absolutely fall in love with both these women.
Who knew it was possible to WANT to go to the dentists’ office? I swear you will once you meet these ladies. They’re amazing.

Dr Khorsandi and her team are great! I skipped dental appointments for years because I hated even the thought of going. Several friends recommended her and now I recommend her to everyone I know. She and her team are very gentle and while I can’t say a dentist appointment is ever fun, I don’t even mind going to the dentist now!

After becoming dr’s patient (3 years ago), I started looking forward to going to dentist appointments!
Dr. Khorsandi is attentive, professional, takes great care of her patients. In fact the amount of care I have gotten could only be compared to the amount of care one would get from the members of the family. Dr. Khorsandi made me feel comfortable before and during the procedures, explained all the options and checked what was covered by my insurance prior to scheduling anything. Dr. Khorsandi did inlay to save my tooth and a number of fillings and I am very happy with all of those!
The rest of the stuff is absolutely lovely as well! Her assistants and dental hygienists always made me smile and took genuine care and contributed to a calm friendly atmosphere. All in all, it is a great pleasure to be in this warm, caring and knowledgeable environment.

I love this little dental office. The staff is incredibly friendly and warm. Dr. Khorsandi makes me feel like we’ve been friends for years, and the assistant and hygienist do as well. It’s amazing how they are smiling and happy every single time I’m in there. You feel like they really enjoy what they’re doing and care about their patients.
I’ve never liked going to the dentist before, but I actually look forward to going in for my appointments. This is not the normal LA dental office experience.
I’m so happy I found Dr. Khorsandi!

Dr. Khorsandi is an exceptional dentist. Not only is she the sweetest, most kind-​hearted person; she is also a very meticulous dentist. Her office is just like herself, cute, quaint and cottage-​like. It is going through some remodeling at the moment. I can see that it’s gonna get a very nice face lift. Her office staff is very kind and helpful. Nay nay, her dental assistant is as cute as a button & very skilled at what she does. Going to a dentist can be a agonizing experience, but Dr. Khorsandi made me feel right at home! I would recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a new dentist!

I have been going to Dr. Khorsandi since she first opened her Santa Monica practice. She is such a good dentist, and such a lovely woman. And her staff, especially Jennifer, is just wonderful. Most important, I feel that I get very good care from Dr. Khorsandi. She is very competent, and always recommends the best procedure. And her office is so pleasant. I always tease that going to her office for an appointment is like visiting Burke Williams!

I have tried various dentists in LA, but have no desire to change now that I have found Dr. K. Her staff is great, very friendly and knowledgeable. I didn’t find the up sell bad here (had terrible experiences with other dentists) as once I say no, there’s no more pressure. I have had many painless cleanings and a few more detailed procedures at decent prices.

I’m an uninsured patient of Dr. Khorsandi and by far, she’s the best. I’ve been to several dentists on the west side and in the valley and there’s no comparison; her anesthetic shots have no pain and she genuinely tries to make it a delightful experience. I commute from Northridge just to see her and her office staff. They’re really friendly and offer me discounts because of my lack of insurance.
Pros:
— Discounts if you have no insurance
— Friendly dentist and staff
— Available parking (Big plus in Santa Monica)
— No pain with the Novocaine
— Lets you listen to your own music
— Explains treatment very thoroughly and all options available to you
Cons:
— Sometimes the appointment times are too early in the morning for me
— No location in the valley

I have always been treated with courtesy and respect by Dr K. and her staff. The Doctor always performs her work quickly and with confidence. She is a wizard with the Novocaine too, you won’t feel a thing. Bring in a CD and they’ll pop it in for you (I play The Beatles). Jen the hygenist is the best! Always lots of parking on 7^th Street, just bring 4 quarters. If you live or work in Santa Monica, it’s perfect.

I never thought I would look forward to going to my dentist! And I do now that I go to Dr. Khorsandi. You feel great as soon as you step into their office. Friendly faces, harmonious energy, and natural setting of the office welcomes you before you even experience Dr. Khorsandi’s honest expert diagnosis and treatment. If only our health care system could copy Dr. Khorsandi’s standards, style, and philosophy we would be in heaven… and perhaps not in need of so many health care services :)

I strongly recommend Dr. Khorsandi. I’ve been a regular patient for several years now. She’s a good dentist and the staff are always pleasant and friendly.

dr khorsandi is a perfectly adequate dentist. she’s pleasant. she tries to upsell on products and procedures like most dentists do. she does suffer from a huge flaw, however. her judgment in hiring office staff is highly questionable. do not be taken in by the sweet old lady persona put on by her receptionist — this is not a nice person OR even a competent employee. i was dr khorsandi’s first patient at this office. i wanted to believe in her. but time and time again, her receptionist either charged too much money for things, refused to schedule appointments or was just plain rude. shockingly rude. there are other dentists out there. save yourself the hassle and go to one of them.

I’ve been to her office twice, and both times the service was exceptional. Her staff is incredibly friendly and seem to enjoy their jobs. The hygienist told me that Dr. Khorsandi only keeps nice patients, because if she had mean patients, she wouldn’t like her job, and then she would quit. So be nice.
I found my first trip so pleasant I recommended her to 6 or 7 of co-​workers and friends, and they were all just as satisfied as I was with the experience.
On my last visit, my dental insurance had changed, and I forgot to mention it. AFTER four fillings and a cleaning I found out they didn’t support my insurance. Bummer. She gave me a 20% discount (which was very generous) but I still walked out feeling pretty dumb and cringing at the hit my credit card would take. Then her receptionist called me and hour later and told me that Dr. Khorsandi felt bad and was going to cut my bill by more than half! I was incredibly thankful, obviously.
I haven’t had a lot of bad experiences with dentists, but the only great ones I’ve ever had have come from Dr. Khorsandi. If you’re in the Santa Monica area and you’re looking for a dentist, just call her. You’ll be happy.

I am a recent transplant to Los Angeles, and had not yet gone through the process of finding a good dentist. Sadly this came back to bite me *pun intended* when I had a serious toothache that I HAD to get taken care of right away. I called her office on Friday, and on Tuesday I had an emergency appointment. Parking was a little confusing and I have yet to figure it out still. But that aside, the front office staff was friendly, they took my insurance and I was immediately brought in. After a short wait the Dr. came in and suggested that I get full x-​rays since it was my first visit. Throughout the whole visit she was very nice, explained ALL of my possible options, what my insurance would and wouldn’t cover AND even did the procedure that same day, so that I could bite down over the holidays.
Two big thumbs up for this dentist!
