Alexandre HK Tavitian, DDS

Great experience! The staff is friendly and caring. Dr Alex constantly asks me if Im ok during my procedures. Then a couple of days after my appt he texts me to follow up and see how im doing. He is gentle, professional and experienced as I did NOT feel ANY pain!!! I have ALWAYS been terrified of dentists, endodontists etc… Not any more… Thank you Dr Alex!

The best of the best. I’ve never been to a kinder, smarter and more competent doctor in my life and I’ve been to a lot of doctors.

Alex and jenny are AWESOME!!! Jenny got me in same day to look at my emergency wisdom tooth that reared its ugly little head out of nowhere. I’m in pain and her and Alex really took care of me! My consultation was really quick – in and out in maybe 20 mins? And Dr Alex saw me himself and was so nice and honest about my wisdom tooth extraction. I ended up having to get a referral to an oral surgeon, but I’m so happy and excited that I found Dr Alex! Finally have a great (and honest!) dentist again!!!

I was very scared to go back to the dentist; after my wisdom teeth were removed at 16 (I’m 27) the feeling in my chin and gums on the right side didn’t come back.
I choose Dr. Alex because of reviews on Unilocal,but not the typical way. I could tell other dentists (esp the one ranked 1 in burbank) were sending their patients over to Unilocal to write reviews, and asking them to «check in» before they write the review. That’s a red flag for me; I want a dentist less worried about social media and more worried about my teeth. Dr. Alex’s reviews were minimal but great, and his website very professional.
I made the right decision. The office is cozy and beautiful, and his office staff (I can’t remember their names, I’m sorry girls!) were friendly and knowledgable. I need a new word to describe his bedside manner — he was exemplary. Friendly, so patient, and explained things to me in a way I could understand. He cleaned my teeth personally, and it was pain-​free. I don’t have insurance; the cost was fair.
I am getting the zoom whitening from him next week, along with the take home trays for maintenance like he suggested. The normal price for the trays is $ 325 alone, and the zoom $ 300, but they have an awesome deal right now where I am getting both the zoom whitening AND the trays for $ 325! Amazing!
I’ll update after my whitening, but I expect it will be nothing but the best.

The receptionist Jenni is very welcoming and super friendly! Dr. Alex is amazing he has the best bedside manner and makes you feel so comfortable! His assistants are very helpful and nice! He totally make my teeth nice a clean super fresh! I love smiling thanks to his office! He has the newest technology for dental work and his dental center is very clean and elegant! I totally recommend him for a dentist!

Dr. Alex is everything you could ever want in a doctor. I’ve had several major procedures done at his office over the last few years and have always been thrilled with the care I’ve received. He and Jennie are the best!

Dr Alex saved me from major pain, I’m greatly appreciative of his work and assistant Jennie.
Thank you

Dr. Alex has been my husband’s dentist for many years. I normally go to a dentist in Malibu where I work. But when I needed a crown to mend a broken molar, my Malibu dentist became too expensive. So I decided to explore other options. Dr. Alex is very highly recommended by my husband. That, plus the fact that he was charging ¹⁄₃ the cost of the crown compared to my other dentist, convinced me to go to Dr. Alex. I had a good experience and pain was minimal. He checked with me each time he did any step, he would tell me exactly what he was doing and what to expect. Dr. Alex was very kind to me, and so was his assistant Jenny. There was no waiting, they attended to me promptly upon my arrival. My newly crowned molar feels as good as it can be. I highly recommend Dr. Alex!

This guy is HORRIBLE!!! He recommended scaling when my gum line was only in the 4 mm range. He scaled one side at a time with no anesthesia and used a ‘special’ flouride rinse that cost an extra $ 75 per side. He wanted to redo two new fillings with porcelain onlays because he claimed they were cracked. He and his hygienist put on quite a performance. «Oh my god, you have to do this right away.» he said while digging an instrument into my tooth. I made the mistake of letting him do one tooth (which now has a crown), but did not do the other. I had a bad feeling and stopped going to him after that. The other tooth without the onlay has never needed any work and feels fine SEVEN YEARS LATER. When I objected to more scaling, he confronted me WHILE I WAS SEDATED and warned me that if I did not follow his recommendations, that he would be liable and not be able to see me. Challenging my decision and threatening me while I was in an altered state is what ultimately lead me back to my previous dentist. I thought the previous dentist’s office was too far away, but I can never travel far enough for a good dentist.

Dr. Alex has been my dentist for many years, and thankfully I found him after several really bad dentists in this city. He does the cleanings himself as well as procedures. He doesn’t overlook anything that needs to be done, and he is very honest about what he can and cannot do to help. Additionally, he is a wonderful person with a great personality. Jenny works in the office with him and does x-​rays, reception and helps out with procedures. She has been with him for years, which says a lot. I highly recommend Dr. Tavitian.
