Maria Kim, DMD

I was extremely impressed with the way Dr. Kim has treated my 88 year old mother. According to my mother, she is gentle, yet efficient and effective. I thought her prices were reasonable. Unlike many dentists, she’s obviously not just in it for the money. So many others try to sell services you really don’t need, e.g., teeth whitening. Am so happy my mother has found an honest, competent dentist!

This dentist is the greatest… i am from germany and when i moved to california i realized, it is very hard to find a good dentist that actually cares about your needs and not trying to upsale a lot of stuff. Maria is the dentist you need to see!!! She is very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. She takes her work to the next level. She always makes sure everything is perfect. I feel great having a dentist like maria. I even take my 9 year old son there, who is scared to go to the dentist, but he likes going to there.
Thank you for a great dentist experience.

As Good As It Gets! DEF RECOMMEND DOWN THE BOARD.
PASADENA — you have a wonderful dentist in Maria.
Dr. Maria Kim was able to help me out with a late night emergency with one of my teeth! I have never met anyone so kind & caring as Maria. She was fast and efficient fixing the problem. And the billing was not outrageous at all. Anyone who gives this lovely lady a negative review is likely a rival dentist trying to compete against the best.

Dr Kim and her staff did a great job so I am updating my review of her. The routine cleaning went well. After that Dr. Kim informed me about the state of some of my teeth and what might come up in the future.

Absolutely wonderful! Great staff and excellent patient care. Preventative as well as cosmetic care. Not pushy. Educates her patients. Staff is well versed in insurance benefits and claims. Very happy with Dr. Kim and her staff.

I had a great experience with Dr. Kim and her staff. I had not been to the dentist in a very long time and she made me feel at ease. She cleaned my teeth and let me know that I needed a couple of fillings. During the procedure she was gentle and patient. Not to mention she has excellent taste in shoes and décor :).
Billing was straightforward and reasonable. No hidden fees or agendas.
Rosemary did her best to get me an appointment asap.
The office space is clean, stylish, and overall inviting. You will not be disappointed I promise!

After coming to America from England almost 6 years ago I have had a run of horrendous dentists. All of them either rude, inexperienced, extremely costly, terrible at their jobs or all of the above. Maria Kim Is a wonderful dentist and person as is all her staff. They have clean rooms and are all very knowledgable in what they do. I almost didn’t want to give a review so that I didn’t have as much clients to contend with for appointment times but she is just so lovely she deserves it :)

I was eating a burrito and cracked my tooth, it hurt so bad that i had to put vicodones on the cracked tooth to ease the pain. I used to have paddison dental and they refused to see me because they said that they told me about that tooth. I called Dr. Kims office and they took me right away and gave me a root canal and she even called me at night to make sure i waa ok. Highly recomend!

Usually im scared, worried and hated visiting the dentist, but Dr. Kim and everyone at their clinic changed all the bad things that i feel when im visiting the dentist. I’ve been their patient for our 2 yrs now. I visit regularly for teeth cleaning, and just today, did crowning.
Dr. Kim is very friendly and really sweet. You wont get scared of her. She’s gonna make you comfortable and relaxed. She’s very gentle and you wont feel hurt in your gums when she does the operation. She cleans my teeth really well and i love it.
So as her assistant, Irma, they work together very well. Irma shows a lot of care too and she’s very sweet.
Rosemary, the receptionist, she’s very friendly and accomodating. She calls me 2days before my dental appointment to confirm if im going. She’s very jolly.
She gives me advices about what is good about my teeth too.
So i highly recommend Dr. Kim as your dentist. All of them in their clinic takes care of me and my husband

Dr. Kim is a wonderful dentist. I’ve been seeing her almost two years now and she always does a great job. The receptionist, Rosemary is super friendly and works great at explaining what your insurance covers. Many people say they have hard times finding a good dentist, see Dr. Kim if you’re one of them!

Dr. Kim is an amazing dentist! She is gentle, thorough and makes you feel at ease. I had teeth whitening done (and other procedures) and I’m very happy with the results. My whole family comes here and we couldn’t be happier! I would highly recommend her.

I’m very pleased to have found Dr. Kim. She’s the kind of dentist you would drive many miles for. I do not feel that she has recommended unnecessary or superfluous procedures. I have a couple of cavities that she has marked for observation, but which aren’t large enough to warrant filling at this point (which would involve removal of neighboring material).
Dr. Kim and her staff seem top-​notch to me, head and shoulders above my previous dentist. Rosemary in the front office is terrifically cheerful and will do her best to work with your schedule and insurance. I do believe they only accept PPO dental plans though (as opposed to HMO).

Dr Maria Kim and her staff is as good as it gets! My family of 4 all go to her. Its easy to get an appointment, Rosemary (her receptionist) is super nice and guess what, her appointments run on-​time! Her office is cozy and Dr Kim makes you feel so welcomed. I always worry about getting my teeth cleaned but Maria is so gentle she’s aaaahhhhmazing! I highly recommend her to everyone. Call and book your appointment so you can see what a great experience your next dental visit can be.
I’m going in to try the Zoom teeth whitening and can’t wait!

Dr. Kim is hands down the best dentist EVER! Our family of 5 goes to her. From toddler to teenagers, everyone loves seeing her. She really is a family doctor. She’s amazing and so is Rosemary, her receptionist-​extraordinaire!

I am a periodontist, a specialist in the field of gum disease and dental implants. Dr. maria Kim and I have worked together professionally for many years now (not related — it just happens that Kim is a very common last name!!!). Dr Maria Kim is a complex, and experienced clinician, yet down to earth, and very caring person. The cases we have collaborated together has come out nothing short of outstanding…

«If you want beautiful teeth I completely recommend Zoom! When Dr. Kim explained how easy the process was I jumped at the chance to improve my smile. I have to say that I was very satisfied and the results surpassed my expectations. Now I wish I would have done it sooner. I love my new look. I’m so relieved the stains on my teeth are gone. Now I’m not afraid to smile and show off my crisp, white teeth.»

I’ve only been to Maria’s Dental office once due to some horrid experience I had at «Sunshine Dental» El Monte with the charges and «hole in the wall appearance» they had at that office. But when I was at Maria’s office the staff were great! The receptionist was very on point and gave me that cost of procedures before my upcoming visits so I was ready and knowledgeable of my finances. :D
Maria is a very nice, talkative, and down to earth dentist. She does exceptionally well service in teeth cleaning, they even start flossing your teeth before the cleaning. and you leave with a goody bag of toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss. No hassle at this office, they usually fit you in an appointment really quickly. Sad I had to leave, I changed delta insurances and could no longer come to this office as an HMO, but they didn’t give me any hassle or pressure.
I STRONGLY reccomend this dentist, because I assure you that you will not find another dentist. And I can assure you that this dentist will not rip you off like most do.

when you come here, it doesn’t even feel like you’re going to the dentist, it feels like you’ve just reached home :) love dr. kim, the homey ambience, her very friendly receptionist, and all the helpful (&gentle) dental technicians they have working there. you can go there knowing you’ll leave with great teeth and a beautiful smile :))
also, they are open on saturday for cleaning, plus they also do great job with the zoom whitening!

I called Dr. Kim’s office to make an appointment as a new patient. The office staff gave me a really hard time on just the insurance. She did not give me any chance to explain what kind of insurance I had and proceeded to tell me what insurance I had. I couldn’t even get through to her that I understood my responsibilities in payment.
It’s obvious that the office staff does not LISTEN, they just want to TELL YOU.
I didn’t have a chance to experience the dentist. She could be great, but I’ll never know thanks to her staff.

It doesn’t get better than this. This woman is fantastic. I just came back from my first cleaning with Dr. Kim, and I’ve NEVER had such good dentistry (I’m 42).
Dr. Kim’s office is personal, comfortable, and warm. It feels like a home. Gina (who took x-​rays and did flossing and polishing) is amazing. I’ve never had x-​rays without gagging until her.
And I can’t say enough about Dr. Kim. She knows what she is doing. She is thorough (vs. rushing you through), and gives you that individualized attention and advice.
Finally, there was NO WAIT and NO PAIN.
I (obviously!) can’t recommend her highly enough.
