Sara Valencia, DDS

Excellent service from beginning to end. Dr. Valencia has The gentlest touch of any dentist that I have ever felt. The staff is outstanding and they strive to make you feel welcome with a friendly family atmosphere. We need 6 stars here.

I should have updated this a LONG time ago.
Well overdue. With that being said, I can’t say enough good things. After my Unilocal review, they followed up with me and shared that they agree with my review.
Ever since, I’ve been back and never have had an issue. They’re polite, clean, thoughtful and have built a nice relationship.

Very nice office setting. Dr. Valencia is very nice and treated my daughter and I with the best care. The staff are very nice as well. I think we’ve found our dentist finally.

Dr. Sara Valencia and her staff are professional and knowledgable in the dentistry world. My family and I have visited their office a few times, and every experience there has been pleasant. Our smiles reflect what great work Dr. Sara Valencia performs. Thank you!

I would imagine many a first Unilocal review has been motivated by a negative response. In my case, it’s the opposite.
I hate going to the dentist. It ranks up there with visiting the DMV, getting stuck at the airport by an overeager TSA officer or getting mugged. The uncomfortable whirring and vibrating sensation in your mouth combined with the cold, sterile look of the dentist glaring at you from under the overly bright light leaves me with cold sweats at night.
With Dr. Valencia, there’s none of that.
Well, the dental tool sounds are still there, but Dr. Valencia and her staff are anything but cold and sterile – they are extraordinarily nice and super accommodating. What’s more, Dr. Valencia is all smiles and before every procedure she explains what she’s about to do in a very reassuring manner. As it turns out, that’s exactly what I needed for a deep cleaning and a few small cavities.

I’ve been going to Dr. Valencia since I was in junior high (I’m now 7 years out of college). She is an amazingly talented, professional and attentive dentist. She has kept my teeth clean, hooked me up with teeth bleaching and even did veneers for my boyfriend years ago. I highly recommend her services at either the Long Beach or Torrance location as I’ve been to both.

Sara is awsome! Her staff are professional and compassionate, they took me w/​o an appointment and were caring and very reasonable! They made a loyal customer and I would highly reccomend her. After shopping for a dentist in pain for hours and being treated w/​indiffernce they really were amazing when I needed help, real good people! I can’t Thank her enough!

I LOVE Dr. Valencia’s Office! She is an amazing dentist, she is so gentle and caring. She was able to work with my insurance, which always leaves me happy. Her office has that family feel environment, so my pretty smile is from ear to ear (:

After weeks of shopping the Torrance neighborhood for the right dentist I chose Dr. Valencia… it was the right choice. She and her staff are sweet and very caring. My mouth was a challenge to work on but she didn’t hesitate and went straight to work. Their office is always cheerful, with a good energetic vibe.

I just loved the way I was treated!

I was looking for a Pediatric Dentist for my 6 year old twin boys. I called this office because of the reviews here on Unilocal.When I called, I was now afraid of going to the dentist! Wierdest call I ever made. A young lady answered the phone. I asked her if Dr. Valencia was a Pediatric Dentist and she paused, paused, paused. Then she answered, «Sorry my daughter was talking to me!» Then she stated, yes she taked children. I told her my situation and then she again said that she does take children, but… if the child doesn’t sit well, they send them to a ‘SPECIALIST”. I asked her what that means, «SPECIALIST». She said that this «SPECIALIST» is good with children and they either tie them down or put them to sleep if they cannot take a needle or do the work!!! YIKES, YIKES, YIKES!!! No what I was looking for!!! My only and first experience with this office, not the doctor was awlful! Very unprofessional and scarred the (blank) out of me!!! Not taking my kids there!!!

I love this dentist. First off, who ever want to go to the dentist, as a child you are conditioned to think that the dentist is your worst nightmare, especially the way tv depicts a dental office visit… the sounds, the pain, aaaww the torture. However, my experience was on the contrary. From the time you walk into the door, you feel a sense of relief, the staff with their friendly smiles and the assurance of «it’s going to be okay»! This office is not about taking you in for your money and just getting the work done, they are more pleasant in a way. They care about you, always making sure that you are comfortable, not in pain, and «worry-​free». I’ve gotten a lot of things done, the biggest was getting my wisdom teeth pulled, and it was a success story, I have to admit I was petrified going in there, probably from hearing so many horror stories from friends and their doctors, but for me, it was good! Come to think of it, the next day I was my normal self, eating and drinking regular food. They have great rates with Teeth whitening, and implants. You should definately check this place out!
