Everyone was so friendly and warm when I came in for my first visit! I must say, I was rather apprehensive to be going back to the dentist for the first time in way too long... and dealing with my insurance had been such a nightmare, but all that went away as soon as I got their office on the phone. The reception was helpful and proactive. The technicians were knowledgeable and did everything they could to provide extra help. And Robert Tingilian, my dentist, was efficient and honest in his assessment of my teeth. Happy to have found a place that doesn't make going to the dentist feel like

I’ve been going here for a few years now. Hands down the best dentist office I’ve been to. One time I broke a tooth and they got me in the next morning to fix it. Everyone seems very friendly and good at their job. Overall just a really nice environment.

I used this Dentist 11 years ago and he fixed a problem with my gums that no other dentist could solve. I decided to switch back to him because my other dentist was too expensive. I made an appointment for me and my wife but I wrote down the wrong date. When my wife and I showed up and realized we had the wrong date, the dentist generously accomodated both of us and had us out of there in just over 1 hour.

I would give 6 stars if I could.

Dr. Tingilian saved the day!!! My front tooth broke and I had an event the next day. Dr. Tingilian didn't hesitate to see me & treat my tooth even with an hour notice. My family, friends, & co workers have been his loyal patients for almost 2 decades now and will never switch to another DDS. The doctor isn't just amazingly, so are his staff! Just to name a few, Maria does the most detailed cleaning and is extremely knowledgeable and Janet is a superstar who's always available to answer my billing questions, last minute appointments, etc. All-together, a professional, clean

My crown fell out from another dentist and I hadn't been to Comfort care in quite a while... just life and ended up someplace else... but i called to see if by chance they would put it back in for me as the place I was going could not and they took me and put me back together again. Being back and remembering how nice the staff was and well as the dentist -- I'll be a returning customer! Thank you guys so much, great customer service!

By and large the best dentistry I've ever been to. The staff is amazingly kind and helpful. The hygienist Armen (Armin?) was incredibly professional and explained to me everything as he was doing it, which really helped with my anxiety. Not to mention that he performed the deep cleaning I was there for with expert precision and sensitivity.
Could not recommend them more! Especially if you have anxiety about going to the dentist and needles like I do.

Comfort dental is just that. The Doctors are awesome and diffently make you feel like the care and attention is just for you and not an automatic response to all. Thank you so much for all your help with my teeth, I know it was a challenge😁. Everyone of you, from the front desk to the licensed professionals get 5 starts from me. Cheers

I was so happy to find this dental office. The staff was courteous and efficient. Dr. Tom was amazing, thorough and he didn't want to do procedures just for the sake of making money, (which he could have) he took care of my needs first.
The dental hygienist was the best I have ever had!! I have always had pain and discomfort getting my teeth cleaned. I had not one moment of pain and he was very thorough.
I cannot recommend them enough. I have found the perfect dental office.

Not many people would consider a visit to their dentist a pleasant experience, but since I discovered Comfort Dental Care a few years ago, I actually look forward to having dental work done by Dr. Tom who, in my opinion, is one of the best dentists “in town.” Due to his amazing competence and professionalism, each time I leave with better looking teeth than I when I came in! The most recent work he did for me were two bridges to cover missing teeth – and I could not be happier with the final product. No problem smiling again! Of course, before the final crown and bridges were permanently

I have been getting dental work done by Dr. Tom for years . He always hires the best staff and has a personable disposition. Whereas some dentists will let you go with average work, Dr. Tom maintains a high standard. My dental plan doesn’t include him. And I’m gladly paying for his services, because he”s the best.

Dr. Tom is what we call him. He has been our family dentist for years now. They treat us like family. My son just had braces and I was expecting it to be a traumatic experience. My son never complained once. He treats our son as if he is treating his own son. The dental hygienists have always been gentle and kind. I look forward to going to dentist as in past I used to dread it. We will continue to come to Comfort Care Dental as a family for years to come. We are grateful to have found them.

Dr. Tom is the best dentist I’ve ever seen. He always makes sure that I am comfortable and informed of the procedure, and takes excellent care to ensure I have the best experience I can. His team are consummate professionals. I rue the day that he retires. 6 stars! 3 thumbs up!

This place is great. Dr. Shanakian and his staff has treated me several times with a tremendous amount of delicacy and patience in consideration of my extreme dental phobia and pain.

Comfort Care Dental has provided, by far, the least unpleasant (I'm hard to please) dental care experience I've ever had. In spite of the COVID-19 crisis, they were able to treat me effectively and promptly when I was desperate for care.

I really don't know what to say except that this clinic is ahead of the game in patient care, expert work, and professionalism in the dentistry arts. Dr. Shanakian

Had a bad experience here a few months ago which I thought I'd share in order to maybe save some people from getting this kind of work done here.
I asked for veneers which ended up being made crowns. The dentist who did them (won't name names, you know who you are) told me that "veneers and crowns" are interchangeable terms. Enough said.

Love love love this dental office. Mark and Maria are very friendly and helpful. I am back to braces (3rd time)due to non compliance with retainers. The experience with Dr Tom was pain free and just on follow up appointment I was told they will remove it in 4 weeks. I'm beyond happy and grateful. Thank you Comfort Care Dental for yet another excellent service. Highly recommend them for dental or ortho services.

I'm a very nervous dental patient and as a result I avoid going to the dentist. I've been through several dentists over the past few years and some left me feeling uneasy when they didn't address my anxiety and others, although patient still didn't make me feel at ease.

I found Comfort Care through my insurance because they were close to my home and the name made me feel like they might be more focused on patients who are inherently uncomfortable at the dentist.

From the very first phone call to make an appointment the staff were great. Friendly, patient and made sure i

My husband found Comfort Care Dental by total accident, and it's honestly been the best accident we've had. The facility is cozy and has plenty of parking (a huge plus here in LA!), and the reception team is so nice. Dr. Tingilian and his team are wonderful, and have worked extensively with us to figure out my husband's teeth, how to bill our insurance, and how much every single treatment costs. They're honest, knowledgeable, and very supportive of our dental care. No judgements from this team - just quality dental hygiene and good information! Thanks for being our family dentist

Dr Rob is the most remarkable, caring and gentle dentist I've ever met!
You can tell how invested he is in everything that he does, I truly feel like he goes above and beyond.
I am so grateful for all his honest advice, patience and guidance through all my procedures.

Marc who assist Dr Rob has really great work ethic; he is extremely detail oriented and is always on top of everything. I love that he is always able to anticipate the next move to make my experience very enjoyable.


Armen is THE BEST hygienist hands down. He has truly mastered his craft and you can tell he truly loves

Dr. Thom has been my dentist for several years now. Working thru teeth removals, caps, and finally braces. I like the office is capable of doing everything but root canals, for my teeth. The teeth cleaning I get is performed very professionally and gently by a caring man!
The staff is the best group of people I've encountered in a small family practice. Very attentive to your needs, very knowledgeable of all processes, and can answer your questions and calm your nerves.
I would highly recommend this business to anyone looking for a good local dental office. I found them thru a recommendation

Refreshing when a Doctor has a better way to help patients than really expensive treatments. I was charged $45 for a treatment that was explained to me as optional, but research had shown to be as effective if not more than the $800 treatment that my last 2 Dentists insisted that I needed. They use high tech equipment which means that treatments and procedures are quicker and less invasive. I only gave 4 stars because I always believe that we can do better and should strive to improve, but overall it was a great visit and I am a tough patient to impress.

Choosing the right dentist is extremely difficult. You want someone that is Honest, knowledgeable, compassionate, efficient, and Painless! I found all of these qualities in two great dentists at Comfort Care.

My family and I have been coming here for years for cleaning, checkups, and for both minor and major work. Every single time we leave their office satisfied and with the knowledge that our dental issues have been resolved.

After years of going to this place for our dental needs, I decided to write this review now because of what we went through couple of days ago. My youngest son was

PLEASE READ IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING THEM! The office is small and oddly located. Went in here twice because of the proximity to my house, once for my first cleaning and x-rays and then the second time for my regular 6 month cleaning which I confirmed is $0 through both the dental office and my insurer. When I arrived, no one greeted me or spoke with me and awkwardly avoided eye contact until I had to ask them 10 minutes after my appointment time if they needed me to check in. They said, no, just go right in. At the end of the cleaning (very quick cleaning) the person grabbed a syringe with liquid

I was not the priority. I was waiting in the chair for 40 mins. for them to tell me I need to come back in 3 weeks. I left with a 500$ quote and No work was done. Glad I waited a week for an appointment.

I have been going to Comfort Care Dental for years and cannot be happier with the way they treat me, the service I get, and my great smile. I have had braces and retainers through Comfort Care Dental and my teeth have never been healthier and my smile has never been better.

If you are the type of person who hates going to the dentist (as I used to be), I would recommend Comfort Care Dental. I never fear going to the dentist when I go there. They take care of me and make me feel like family. I would and have recommended Comfort Care to all of my friends and family. STOP LOOKING AND CALL!!!

Dr. Tom and the the Ladies are all absolutely a pleasure and delight eveytime I have an appointment. I started going with this office because my last dentist was just not up to standard. Here, I am extremely happy with the job they have done for me. I know that I will be loyal to this practice till my work is completed. Just thinking of that makes me sad. I actually enjoy going to this dentist.
Dr. Tom truly has a passion for his work. He loves his work and it shows. I could not be happier. Actually I'm impressed beyond words.

The ladies are proffessional yet fun. They are bubbly and always
