I had a great experience with Dr. Taylor's office. I called with an emergency problem, and even though I was a brand new patient, they worked to find a time where the doctor could see me as quickly as possible. When I got there, the office was clean and friendly. I'm so glad to find such a great dentist in Ladera!

Best dentist I’ve ever seen! I have such a hard time trusting dentists because I’ve had some bad ones, but seriously this practice is top notch and they strive to keep us out of the dentist. My hygienist gave me tips on upkeep so she doesn’t have to see me as often. :) It also was clean and safe. My sister, brother, and nieces all go here and we’ve never had issues. Dr Taylor is great. When I move back to LA, I’ll drive the hour and 20 minutes plus, to go here.

Like most I do NOT like seeing the dentist EVER! My husbands friend recommend this office as we have had issues finding someone we felt comfortable with! My first appointment on 3/5/20 was for X-rays and cleaning AND I didn't hate it!! I already knew I needed a crown replaced and of course that came up, so we made that appointment for 3/11. Came back on 3/11 for a temporary crown and AGAIN I didn't hate it!! Honestly..... it was painless as they make sure you are comfortable at all times!!
I must say both visits were pleasantly nice and easy. I was in and out in 1.5 hours, didn&apos

This is the best dentist I've ever been to. I'm super nervous about going to the dentist, but Dr. Taylor and his entire staff were friendly, patient, and helpful. They were super flexible on scheduling, extremely friendly and genuine, and most importantly he did excellent dental work on me that saved me from having to pay a specialist thousands of dollars. Their office is basically a collection of really nice human beings that also happen to be world-class dental professionals. Great experience.

Dr. Taylor & his staff are super friendly, caring, and knowledgeable. For my first visit, they took some x-rays, pictures of my old metal fillings, and did a cleaning & exam. Dr. Taylor could've just replaced the metal fillings but he gave me an honest opinion - the fillings are still ok for now & if I want to replace it, they could do it, but it's not necessary at this point. They are going to monitor it until it's necessary to replace. I appreciate his honesty because I've had a dentist in the past who replaced all my fillings on one side without even letting me

I went to this dentist years ago. I was told that I had a mouthful of cavities and would probably need at least one root canal if I didn't get thousands of dollars worth of work done right away. Years later, new dentist, no cavities, no root canal.... so glad I listened to my intuition and not this dentist! Pretty scary to think I could have gone through all of this for no reason.

Dr Taylor & his Office Manager, Janet, SAVED the day and many days since! Out of the blue, my veneer popped-off. Normally I wouldn't have been in such a panic but it was my FRONT tooth! There was NO way I could be seen anywhere with it missing!!
Not having any experience with this, I first went to the dentist I was just assigned to via my Dental HMO thinking it would be an easy fix. After waiting for hours, and then spending ANOTHER hour in the chair, that dentist got it on and I rushed to work for what was left of the day. Not even 10 hours later, it popped off again!! I called that

TWO MONTHS LATER....
This is a follow up review to my glowing remarks a couple months back.
At that time, Dr. T had made note that I did have some cracks in a tooth (due to those lovely old school silver fillings). What struck me then was the almost LACK of a hard sell or gloom n' doom scenario that "if you don't do this tomorrow it's going to be a disaster!". To the contrary, he was very laid back and said something to the affect of "from my experience (of which he has 25+ years) it looks like 'this' will happen... not a matter of if, but when."

I just got off the phone making an appt to see Dr. Taylor tomorrow and realized I'd never yelp'd him.
I started going to this office back when the principal Dr there was Todd Engle. He was a good guy. He turned his office over to Dr Taylor a couple years ago and I've been going there ever since.
Its a great office. New and has all the high tech machines and equipment. The staff is always VERY pleasant and friendly.
Dr Taylor is VERY cordial and VERY friendly. I get a very good impression from him. He's definitely NOT a upsell kind of dentist. I'll look forward to my
