Finally found a dentist I love! Staff is always friendly, the dentist is amazing, she does great work and is very honest! I was referred by my wife and I'm definitely sending everyone I know over here. I love that I feel the care is top-notch and the dentist always gives me her full attention.

I hate going to some dentist office where you're sitting in your chair for large amounts of time just waiting.

I have had great experiences with Dr Kim. She is the best dentist that's ever worked on my teeth. She was very gentle and always explained full details. The office is clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Dr Kim at E-Smiles Dentistry.

I was a bit skeptical about starting off with a new dentist after an insurance switch, but I’m 100% happy with the change!! Everyone in the office is extremely welcoming and I’m beyond pleased with the work I got done there.

Dr Kim is a very good dentist. She is very gentle, and she knows what she is doing. Every visit to her clinic is very satisfactory. My kids like her too. My daughter said she is great, fantastic and very kind. My sons said she's very friendly and understanding and very careful. Her staff, Shaina, is very, very friendly too. If you make an appointment, there is no wait.
I recommended her to my relatives and friends.

Great dentist. Dr. Kim is the best at what she does. Highly knowledgeable. Excellent staff. And they are more than willing to work with your insurance to help you get what you need. Make an appointment today. You wont be disappointed.

Where should I start? Well before it was Dr. Kim's office it used to be Dr. Ellen Chen and her son Dr. Andrew Chen. I've have them for over 40 years. She used to be my dentist since I was 5 until she retired and found her kind, sweet, patient replacement, Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim had some major shoes to fill but she has done a great job continuing the same kind of service the Chen's had offered. I cannot say how kind, patient, understanding and reasonable she has given me and my family. I have recommended many of my friends and family to her. She takes her time with each patient and if there is anything

The experience and visits have been positive . You feel relaxed and at ease that you will be treated and receive the best care. The office is clean and efficient. The staff are friendly , knowledgeable , skillful , patient and good at explaining procedure , follow up detail and all over after care. The dentist right hand assistant SHAINA really does a excellent job of knowing or getting to know her patients with so much empathy. She cares about all her patients and it really shows . I would recommend this dental office and staff to people who want a great dentist with assistants that really care

The whole team at ESmile is absolutely amazing! I drove from Calabasas before I moved to Redondo just to see Dr. Chen, who is the kindest person. We you walk in and see Shaina's smile and how sweet she is, you instantly feel at home. Dr. Kim is incredible and also welcomes you like you have known her forever. I have sent several friends and wouldn't think of going anyplace else :)

Need emergency wisdom tooth extraction and Dr. Kim was very accommodating to take me in. Although I always dreaded going to the dentist, Dr. Kim made the experience pleasant and painless. Thank you Dr. Kim.

Doctor Kim was recommended by a friend. She pulled out my infected teeth now waiting for implant. She's really professional, caring, and honest about the thing she does. She will now be my family dentist hehe if you have insurance question she's willing to help and answer any questioned you have. I am going to tell my parents to go to her. This office has only one assistant but the assistant is very friendly too they make you feel like home. :)
Oh yeah when she numb you it doesn't even hurt. The best of the best I would highly recommend

I previously had Western Dental and switching my Dentist to E smile dental was great. At E smile everyone was super friendly and took their time to explain everything. I didn't have to wait long there was no line and they explained to me that they like to schedule people apart far enough so there is no rush and wait really. Great experience!

Dr. Kenny Kim, DDS is a very skilled, highly intelligent and extremely efficient dentist. She most recently, removed an existing crown and re-performed a root canal on one tooth, removed another crown on a second tooth and performed a filling and replaced a filling/veneer on a third tooth. I left each appointment amazed at the low impact of each procedure and the absolute lack of pain (including the root canal). Dr. Kim is very focused, very much up-to-date and extraordinarily efficient.
An added bonus is Dr. Kim’s Dental Assistant, Shana. She is very proactive and skilled. She and Dr. Kim work

Best dentist experience ever.
I got a root canal done for the first time (and hopefully the last) and although I walked in terrified, the procedure couldn't have gone more smoothly. Completely painless. Dr. Kenny and Shana checked on me multiple times throughout to make sure I was feeling okay, and explained what she was doing along the way.
From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, Shana makes you feel welcomed and at ease. Dr. Kenny doesn't sugar coat or exaggerate, but explains everything simply and clearly.
Not only are Dr. Kenny and Shana incredibly good at what they

Dr Kim was very good about examining my teeth and explaining to me what was going on. She gave me a nice clean and advised me what I should do to prevent further decaying.

Shaina (I believe is her name) was also very friendly and they both work well together. They are professional and get the job done fairly quickly.

Even though this place is a bit far from where I live, I still make the drive here.

Before I came here, I was told that I would need a surgery that would cost around $3,000 so I needed 2nd opinion about my failing bridges from a trusted dentist. Dr. Kenny Kim was very helpful and honest and she told me the surgery is not necessary and all I needed was a simple procedure to fix the problem. Saved so much money and pain by short visit to this office! If you are not sure about what to do about your dental issues, visit Dr. Kenny and she will prescribe only what you really need, not some bogus operations that cost thousands. Highly recommend for her honesty and effective treatment

BEST dental ever in my life!
Highly Recommend!

The dentist, she is supper nice, kind, honest, skillful, and aesthetics.
I want to share my experience. I had consultation about my occasional toothache with several dentists for more than 2 years. There is no cavity found on x-ray but has big fill in which very close to nerve. All dentist recommended me to take out the fill in and look at to make sure and get root canal treatment to avoid the un-pleasure experience but it is costly. Not other dentist, she did not scare me and force me to get the treatment done ASAP. She explained all possibility
