Elena Rumack DDS, MS

Dr. Rumack is the best pediatric dentist I have ever met. My daughter who’s 6 years old loves going to her office for her teeth cleaning as she’s so gentle and makes her feel comfortable! She loves the toys and watching tv while getting her teeth cleaned :) All my Mom friends rave about Dr. Rumack! Everyone I know in Calabasas and the valley has their kids go to her and say she’s the best in the game! Highly recommend!

My son was born with a tongue tie and we were recommended to have it evaluated and released. We were referred to Dr Rumack by my brother-in-law, an orthodontist, who also strongly recommended the procedure to be done. The procedure itself was completed with a laser...quick and no bleeding. However, I was most impressed by Dr Rumack taking the time to explain her recommendation and the latest dental science as it relates to breastfeeding and tongue ties. I can tell she really enjoys educating her patients so that they can make the best decision for their children. Before we left, she made sure we understood the crucial post operative care and showed us on a model the exercises that need to be performed to ensure proper healing. It's almost a week since my son had the procedure and I can tell he's already feeding better! My wife and I are so thankful to have been referred to Dr Rumack and we recommend her with enthusiasm!

It was a long road to get here but Dr. Rumack is incredible. I worked with 3 lactation consultants, 2 pediatricians and 1 ENT prior to seeing Dr. Rumack. She was the first person to really hear me and take me seriously. My son had a class iv posterior tongue tie. He was 11 months when we had the procedure done, it was very quick. It was same day as our consultation. He latched immediately after the procedure and it was pain free for the first time. The follow ups were thorough, but still quick. The exercises, while he may have been unhappy did not hurt. I was able to the exercise while he slept peacefully. I had instant relief after 11 months of painful breastfeeding. That by itself was life changing, but even more so after 11 months of slow weight gain and some trouble with solids due to the tongue restrictions. My son sleeps deeper now. He is able to eat solids, his tongue has much more function. I wish we had been referred to Dr. Rumack on day 1, but I am so thankful that we did it at 11 months. He is now 13 months. I am so grateful that we did this, especially when considering that tongue ties can be a root cause for behavioral and speech issues later on.

Our lactation consultant was quick to identify that our newborn had both a tongue and lip tie. Both she and our pediatrician referred us to Dr. Rumack's practice and their laser procedure. The process and recovery were super efficient and seemingly with very little pain based on how quickly our little girl adapted. We feel so very lucky to have found Dr. Rumack who had become a one-of-a-kind specialists in these procedures. Her bedside manner, and her breast-feeding and other infant knowledge, were very comforting. We'd highly recommend her and her practices. Even though they quite far away from where we live, we will seriously consider bringing our daughter here for her regular dental needs as well.

We had a wonderful experience with Dr Rumack releasing our newborn son's tongue tie. The procedure itself is very quick (maybe less than 5 min) but Dr Rumack took her time to explain benefits of the procedure. Baby boy is still healing, but does not appear to be in any discomfort. He is now successfully breastfeeding and packing on the cute baby fat. Happy baby means happy parents. Thank you Dr Rumack
