Marianne Talukdar, DDS

Dr. Talukdar is just amazing. For my first appointment, I was late. I felt awful, and apologized, but she and her sweet staff were absolutely kind, even though they had to stay later.
Her treatment areas look like little spas. Chairs facing pretty gardens, and clean as clean can be.
Dr Talukdar did the most thorough dental exam I’ve ever had, and didn’t hurt me once. She took the time to explain everything I needed done, and prioritized it so I didn’t feel like I was facing a marathon drill-​fest.
I hate going to the dentist almost as much as I hate going to the doctor, but she and her assistant are so wonderful that I’m (almost) looking forward to my next visit! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Dr. Talukdar and her staff are amazing! Sweet genuine people.
Her and her staff are so helpful and informative. I’ve been screwed left and right from my new insurance and the doctors taking my insurance. But Nancy here has been so sweet and informative in explaining to me what is covered and upfront of how much everything will cost. Dr. Talukdar has taken good care of me and my teeth so far I got a few more scheduled deep cleanings with her and look forward to seeing her and you funny assistant who makes me smile. She has also referred me to an Ortho who’s staff also seems very friendly and helpful as well, she also took the extra step to make sure this Ortho was in my insurance network to make sure I wouldn’t have to worry about those unexpected cost or surprises you get when it comes to insurance.
They are also very good about accommodating to your schedule and I never have to wait.

Dr. Talukdar is by far the best dentist for my needs. I am scared of doctors/​dentists, yet I *almost* look forward to my visits to their office. Instead of using a dentist in El Segundo where I live, I choose to drive to Dr. Talukdar’s office which is an hour away. I have issues add discomfort to things like x-​rays and they are aware of this and help to alleviate my anxiety. The staff is wonderful; I am confident I am getting the best care there. I have had insurance/​not had insurance at different times in the last 5 years with Dr. Talukdar and they always work with me to help make it affordable. I would suggest Dr. Talukdar for anyone, but especially those who have put off dental care for a long while and are now hesitant to even visit. You won’t be sorry here.

Dr. Talukar is the best dentist! She is gentle, thorough and I LOOK FORWARD TO EACH OFFICE VISIT! I was formerly terrified of dentists but Dr. Makes dental care enjoyable and a learning experience. Thank you Dr. Talukdar for your outstanding kindness and putting the patient first with your caring manner.

She is my dentist. She is very professional, personable and an extremely skilled dentist. I enjoy the front office but also enjoy her assistants who are helpful and answers questions to the best of their knowledge. The doctor is not afraid to spend extra minutes to answer our questions. I have met many of her patients who are happy with the quality of her work. I bring my son who is 7 years old. She is really good with kids. It appears that she focuses on patients and not on procedures or payments. She is a Loma Linda University graduate who actually demonstrates very good judgement and empathy.
