Hanawalt Dental
Our staff will discuss all of your options and what to expect. They are here to answer your questions and address your concerns. It is their goal to give you a satisfying experience every time you walk through our doors. Quite simply, they are great at what they do! We are proud to offer dental implants for our patients.

Dental implants are roots placed in your mouth for either permanent teeth to be placed on or ones that you can remove. Invisalign is a modern alternative to straighten your teeth without wires or metal. Invisalign involves a series of custom trays designed specifically for you and the plan your dentist or orthodontist creates to move your teeth.
Services
Hanawalt Dental is proud to serve La Verne, CA and surrounding areas. We are dedicated to providing the highest level of dental medicine along with friendly, compassionate service. If you have any questions about how we can care for your teeth & mouth, please don't hesitate to call us at (909) 593-4581.
Dental bonding is the procedure where we apply a tooth colored plastic material to a patient's tooth. Using a special light, the material hardens and bonds the material to the tooth. Dental bonding is used to improve a patient's smile. It can be used on cracked and decaying teeth. It also can be used for cavities.
Professional cleanings also give our dentists a chance to really look at your teeth. We will do a thorough examination to make sure that you don't have any other problems that need to be addressed. We are hoping to catch any little problems before they become bigger ones! If you need a dental cleaning or if you have any questions, feel free to contact us today at (909) 593-4581.
Crowns have a variety of uses. In some cases that require a large filling, there isn't enough tooth remaining to keep the filling in place. A crown can strengthen the tooth and hold the filling. Crowns can also protect teeth that are weak, or help fix ones that are broken. Discolored or misshaped teeth can be covered by a crown, as can dental implants.
Veneers are thin shells intended to cover the front side of teeth to hide stains, chips, decay, or irregularities. A dental technician uses a model created by a dentist to make a custom shell out of specials materials. Because veneers require removing some enamel, they are usually permanent. Your dentist will typically recommend avoiding food and drink that will stain your veneers.

Very friendly, efficient staff. Office is a 10 in cleanliness. No waiting - they get you in at your appointment time. Pricing is a bit above average but so are their skills. I recommend and have no desire to look elsewhere.

From beginning to end, this office is welcoming and efficient! Chris and and Tina at the front desk are so helpful and funny. Every one of the ladies in the back are top notch! And, Dr Peri is gentle, skilled, thorough and engaging. She makes you feel like you’re the most important person in the room! She and her dad, Dr. Hanawalt, make patient care their top priority. Thank you!

Having discovered a hitherto unknown technology problem that corrupted the electronic file of a scan of my teeth, Dr. Peri brought me back for a second scan after making sure that the technology problem had been corrected. She and Jennifer, her assistant, apologized for the problem (which was certainly not their fault) and then proceeded to do an expeditious yet careful second scan, checking to be sure that it was securely saved and received by the lab. This problem was handled exactly right, so that my already high opinion of the Hanawalt practice became even higher. What a good feeling to be

After 20 plus years with the same
Dentist I decided to make a change! Met
With Dr Hanawalt Wes and staff
For a new patient appointment. Staff was friendly, helpful, and CoVid safe. The consult was so thorough. Explanations of X-rays and plan for my treatment was easily explained and very clear. I appreciated the printed invoice for my future treatment. Left feeling like I made a wise choice to change providers!!

I continue to be impressed by this office. Since my last visit they have taken extraordinary precautions to minimize covid-19 dangers, including the ventilation system among many others. I felt as safe as possible during my visit. The quality of care, as usual, was top notch.

My family and I are new in town. We were referred by my coworker. The entire staff were very polite and professional. I enjoyed the fact Jennifer and Doctor Peri Hanawalt were attentive and thorough with my examination. Every issue was explained in detail. I appreciated that.

Yes I'm guilty of not staying consistent with dental visits in the past but this office has changed my perspective. Thank you again for a wonderful experience! See you soon!

I finally got to have my teeth cleaned after having to postpone due to one thing after the other, including COVID. So glad they were able to reopen. Hanawalt Dental did a great job of making patients feel safe during this time. From the check-in to the check-out! Thanks to the whole staff that is so warm and caring! I highly recommend.

This dental practice is a pleasure to visit. The staff are friendly and treat you like you actually matter! Most importantly, the dental care is second to none. I know I'm getting the proper care and that it's being done at the highest level. I would strongly recommend Hanawalt Dental to anyone that needs dental care!

Excellent everything. I've had 3 appointments so far with 3 different dental assistants (or hygienists?) and they were all great. They were on time and waiting for me for each appointment. Everything is clean, everyone is attentive. Highly recommend!

I am easy to please...but my picky 6 year old is another story. Nobody likes going to the dentist...well now i have a child who does. Hands down the best place ever for adults and kids. We saw Dr. Peri and I can't say enough about how great she was and her bedside manner was phenomenal. She was full of energy and made my 6 year old so comfortable. She definitely knows her stuff as well. My son asked when he could go back to wear the cool sunglasses Dr. Peri let him wear. This office definitely has this family of 5 for life. Couldn't be more satisfied with a dentist. You won't be

I'm writing this review for my parents. They don't Yelp but they spent ten minutes telling me how great this dentist is and said they want to write a review so I offered to write a one for them.

They said "Dr Peri gives shots so well that you don't feel any pain whatever. Her skills as a dentist are SO GOOD. She even called the evening after we had procedures to follow up and make sure we were ok. Also, the support staff was excellent. She's the best dentist we've ever had".

No kidding, I've never seen them this excited about going to the dentist.

I was here earlier right before they closed. They've been my dentist for years, and they're family run so you know you'll get the best treatment from them.

I have been going to Dr.Hanawalt's office for many, many years. My mom went to him first and because she highly recommended him, I went there. I must start by saying that I have always had severe anxiety when it came to going to the dentist- so much so that I avoided going for many years. Everyone at the office is friendly, warm, and inviting. They were aware of my stress issues and treated my very kindly. After I had my daughter, and she got her first teeth, she too started going to Dr.Hanawalt. Mine is one of the few kids that loves going to see the dentist. She LOVES Dr.hanawalt. He always

INTERESTING. There are 7 reviews for this dental office. HOWEVER, the only one that shows up without a 'filter' is the single negative one. Great. So, to try and counteract that, I'll reiterate my previous review. This is an EXCELLENT dental office. If you want a REAL person to care for you...then this is the dental office for you. Dr. Hanawalt's daughter is now on the team too..which allows better Dr. availability.

Let me preface this by saying that my mom loves him. Not him personally, but as a dentist.
That being said...
I had avoided going to the dentist for years due to fear. So, of course I had some dental issues. These were noted during a June exam.
I was back in for a procedure in February, at that time it was noted that two of my teeth were sensitive to temp and pressure. A filling was scheduled (with a resident dentist) for March.
I was still in pain after that, and returned. The filling was redone (by Dr. Hanawalt) due to a piece falling out.
The pain continued, and I went back. I was told that
