James M Crabtree, DDS

How Dr. Crabtree isn’t the number one ranked dentist in Arcadia is a bigger mystery than the creation of the universe. Let me break down why you should stop going to your current dentist and drive on over to Dr. Crabtree (listed in no particular order):
1. Pain-​free. He makes sure you aren’t feeling what he is doing.
2. The man has a love and passion for his job
3. He remembers information about patients and their families.
4. Super clean office.
5. Conveniently located off the Gold Line.
6. He lets you know exactly what he is doing.
7. He wants children to watch him works so they are not scared of dentists.
8. His office staff is incredibly friendly.
I went to Dr. Crabtree when I was a child. Back then I loved going to the dentist. It was fun going to the dentist and getting my teeth cleaned. My insurance changed and I had to switch to other dentists. That is when I started to fear dentists. When I was a patient of Dr. Crabtree I had never felt any pain. Every dentist since has made me sweat through my clothes during the visit. I recently returned back to LA after spending 13 years in Japan. I told my wife to stop torturing herself with the Japanese dentists. She must have gotten tired of hearing me talk about how great Dr. Crabtree is. Unfortunately, she popped out a crown with a toothpick before I was able to secure a job and dental insurance. I immediately called Dr. Crabtree and was lucky enough to get an appointment that day for her. He cemented her crown back on. Not only that, but he remembered stories about me from over 20 years ago. He remembered my parents too! It was crazy! When we went to pay we were shocked that he charged us $ 0. What dentist does that?! I feel so lucky that my mother took me to see Dr. Crabtree when I was a little guy. If I lived two hours away from his office I would commute to his office for all my dental needs. Thank you for being the best dentist I have met in 37 years. Never retire.

We’ve been going to Dr. Crabtree for years. He is the best!

I have been bringing my children to Dr. Crabtree for a few years. I like him because he doesn’t medicate or gas them. I recommended him to my mother who is afraid of dentists. I also like how he shows the kids where they didn’t brush. I like that he also sometimes is the one to clean their teeth.

Dr. Crabtree is the best dentist I’ve been to. Very nice and patient with my daughters. Jodi is also great. Personable and very helpful. Two thumbs up!

Dr. Crabtree is great. He performs the dental cleanings and is very gentle, which is much appreciated considering some of the sadistic hygienists I have endured previously. He made a night guard for me, which has saved my teeth. Highly recommend!

Excellent. Friendly. Humane.
First dentist I ever went to where it wasn’t torture. Doc and Jodie are warm and caring and very competent. Feels like being part of the family.
I tell everyone I know to go here.
