Mid-Wilshire Dental Care

This place will scam you. I went in for a simple teeth cleaning and was told I needed a root canal and that I had 3 cavities. I take extremely good care of my teeth and was surprised by this. I got the cavities taken care of but held off on the root canal. Several weeks later, I had a specialist confirm whether or not I needed a root canal. I in fact did not and was told my teeth looked exceptional. My guess is I really didn’t have cavities either. On top of this, I was charged $800 for a bill that should have been covered by my insurance. The receptionist couldn’t even pronounce my name right and my name was spelled wrong on my paper work. Don’t go here.

I went to another doctor, Dr. Ray, and got a procedure for dental implants. I developed a life threatening infection and spent 9 weeks in the hospital. Then I found Dr. Afar, who saved my life! I would never go see Dr. Ray again. He's incompetent!

I was a patient for many years and the minor dental issues I had were never addressed and not resolved. The dentist made mistakes, caused me to have an injured popping jaw form a wisdom tooth removed. Later, I had to find a dentist for emergency tooth removal from an incorrect crown placed on a decayed tooth. I addressed my pain and issues to Mid-Wilshire Dental care and they just said, "We're observing the tooth" I complained about the crown incorrectly done and they just shrugged and said there's nothing they can do about this. The assistant to the dentist had to reseal the crown because the dentist did not know how. The hidden fees and the lack of communication was the main reason I left. The unprofessionalism from the Dentist and my concern was not an interest as a patient. This was the absolute worst experience I've ever experienced.

Dr. Afar did my dental implant and I am absolutely pleased. The entire process was painless and worth the wait. In addition to the impeccable service, the office is ALWAYS clean and the staff is a pleasure to be around.

Great dentists, hygienists and more! A wonderful staff, this place will take good care of you. They really care about their patients!

Dr. Afar and his staff are kind, attentive, and excellent at their job. I’ve had everything from cleanings, to cavity fillings, to gum graft surgery, and could not recommend their office more. As someone with genetically bad teeth and gums, I’m very anxious about dental work, but I know I am in good hands at Mid-Wilshire Dental Care. I am recovering from gum graft surgery and Dr. Afar has been so attentive every step of the way, always making me feel safe and supported. Azi, the hygienist who does my cleanings, is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met and is truly incredibly good at her job — I would trust her with my life! Leandra and Stephanie at the front desk have helped me navigate the insurance process multiple times. I’ve been thinking about moving out of LA for a couple years now but one of the reasons I stay is because I do not want to risk going to another office!

I see Azi for my teeth cleaning every four months at Mid-Wilshire Dental and she is beyond professional and good at her job. Highly recommend her.
