Tod Wakamatsu and Associates

Doctor Tod and his staff deliver quality care with conversation. Doctor Tod is honest in diagnosis and procedures. He is wonderful. I have been his patient for over 30 years. Love him and his staff. Only dentist I have ever had! My whole family has him as their only dentist.

My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Kristen for over ten years and always have a fantastic experience. The office is clean, well managed, appointments are on time, and the equipment is the latest and greatest. The office truly feels like family catch up time when we get to come in. My husband recently needed periodontal surgery and has started to see Dr. Robin, whom is also fantastic! We recommend all of our family (most of whom already come to this office) and friends who are searching for dental care to come to this office! Thanks Dr. Kristen and Dr. Robin for always taking great care of us!

I had terrible dentists as a child and teen, so when I say I was terrified of dental visits, you can take that to the bank. But you do have to see a dentist sometimes and luckily when I came to L.A. over 50 years ago, I was referred to Tod Wakamatsu's father, who owned the practice until he retired. Harold was so kind and, even better, he could give shots almost without you feeling them. His son Tod just shows the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. He's the nicest guy, very funny, very thorough, makes sure you understand what he's going to do and why; then he's all business and finishes the work quickly so you don't have to have your mouth wedged open any longer than is absolutely necessary. He shows you photos of what he's doing through the process and the work is beautiful. The entire office is very professional and well run, and the staff are pleasant to deal with. Tod clearly loves his work and it shows. There's not a better dentist in L.A.!

Very kind and friendly family-owned and oriented dental practice. I started with the previous generation back in the 80’s and now the next generation takes care of me after I moved back into town. They basically take care of my whole extended family!

My biggest fear was to sit in that dentist's chair until I met Dr. Kristen Watanabe. She is very patient in explaining issues/problems with my teeth and what she needs to do to help me. Dr. Kristen Watanabe is knowledgeable and precise when working with my teeth. I am not as nervous now with my dentist's appointment...whew!
