Jacob Elisha, DDS

Love Dr. Elisha and Dr. Vu’s entire office! I highly recommend them for your dental care.

Receiving dental work can always be a stressful and costly experience. However, the staff at this dental office make it as seamless and smooth as the very teeth they work on.
After losing a tooth due to a failed root canal, I was in need of an implant and Dr. Elisha delivered. His bedside manner, along with his dental work made me feel at ease every time. He possesses strong hands with decisive, precise movements which minimized pain.
Although my procedure spanned a series of visits, I loved how he spent his time to explain the details of my treatment and ensured I would’t be paying for any unnecessary services. His excellence is reflective in his dental staff as well, for they’re all friendly and efficient.

I couldnt be happier that I found Dr. Elisha. I first went to him last year when I needed implants, and came back again this year when I needed another implant for a different tooth (and yes, I have been cursed with bad teeth my whole life). I consulted with several different oral surgeons and felt most comfortable with him. He is a specialist in implants, and over the years I have learned the hard way that not all dentists are created equally. He really is skilled at what he does.
Getting an implant can be a scary thing but he made the entire process so easy and I honestly had little to no pain. From the anesthesia needle to the actual work, minimal to no pain and no face swelling where you look like a chipmunk (there is a little discomfort after an extraction once the anesthesia wears off, but nothing a couple of pain pills didnt solve. I had an extraction many years ago from another dentist that was so painful and left me with 4 days of swelling. But with Dr. Elisha, nothing! No pain, no swell, and no tears)
Another thing I loved about his practice is that he didnt try to up-​sell me and I felt like he was really looking out for what was best for me; he actually told me I needed fewer implants than another dentist I had consulted with. His prices are reasonable, you never have to wait for your appointment, and his staff are amazing (especially the lovely lady at the front desk).
I am so grateful that I found Dr. Elisha. He truly is a master at what he does!

The whole office staff is wonderful! The dental implant procedure was made as easy as possible by Dr Elisha, who is kind, confident, calm, and knowledgeable. I couldn’t have asked for a better dental implant dr! All of the girls– the hygienist and the office staff are all very friendly, engaging, and personable… they are very reliable and organized as well… price was very competitive. You won’t be disappointed when choosing this office for your dental needs! They also have a regular dentist on staff who does cleanings and fillings etc.

I was referred to Dr. Elisha’s office for a periodontal surgery. I was very impressed by the scheduling staff who worked very hard to find times that worked for me and my job, and that the wait every time I went in was minimal. The surgery itself went fine, minus an insurance hiccup that the office handled professionally and politely despite the fact that I was a stressed out mess! I liked that, on my post surgical instructions, there was a number to reach Dr. Elisha personally; as I had my surgery on a Friday, it was comforting to know I had a lifeline in case anything went wrong. I am also a nervous dental patient and appreciated that the office was kind, warm, and understanding of dental fears. I love my regular dentist, but if I need more advanced work, I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

I just have to say that I had great a great experience with Dr. Elisha. I have spent so much time throughout my life in a dentist chair and I experience just a little discomfort but no pain. I have had 2 implants and he was caring and honest about what my experience would be like. I just wish he was a general dentist as well…

Thanks fellow Unilocalers for writing the review so that I could find Dr Elisha. These reviews are real. I had the same procedure on the same tooth, by Dr. Elisha and by my previous dentist. So, I can directly compare the experience.
Previous dentist: Anesthesia needles hurt terribly, and my face swell for 5 days after the operation. 1 year later, I had to go back for re-​do. Anesthesia needle hurt terribly, and my face swell for 5 days. When I found out that I had to go back again for re-​do, I froze. That’s when I looked up
.
Dr Elisha: Anesthesia needles did hurt, but not like the other dentist. After the operation, I felt pain for few hours, but it ceased after several hours: I did not take any pain medication. Following morning, I woke up with no pain. I looked in the mirror; no swelling. Dr Elisha had to do more than my previous dentist to eliminate the problem. So, I expected «more» pain and «more» face swelling, turned out that I had pain for few hours, and absolutely no swelling. I cannot believe this.

I just had my wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Elisha and I must say one word sums its all up, he is AMAZING! I heard all these horror stories from different people but I was really shocked how easy and painless it was. His assistant Priscilla is really wonderful! She as well as Dr. Elisha will explain every step to you and even call you the next day to see how you are feeling. Dr. Elisha is kind enough to give his cell number to you in case you are not feeling well-​who does that these days??? I highly recommend Dr. Elisha and his staff!

I broke one of my front crowns while eating. Since the crowns were over ten years old, I wanted both replaced so they would match in color and texture. After researching and consulting with several dentists I selected Dr. Jacob Elisha. He was calm and reassuring, explained the procedure in detail and answered all my questions. I was most impressed with his attention to detail. He wanted my teeth to not only look amazing but fit and alilgn perfectly. The result is that I have beautiful front teeth (one an implant the other a crown). Dr. Elisha and Dr. Vu along wh the staff are caring, personable and professional. I know you will be impressed with his work as much as I am,

Dr Elisha is a great Dentist. He’s doing my Implants now and its pain free and quick and I can’t recommend him high enough Great work! 5 stars!

After fracturing a tooth, my primary care dentist recommended a specialist to address the need for either a cap or to extract. I ask for three specialists in the west Los Angeles area; which I received. Upon careful research and review, I decided to put my trust in Dr Jacob Elisha.
I called to make an appointment as early as possible; since the pain was increasing by the hour. Although the doctor’s schedule was completely booked the following day, the office manager managed to fit me in for the necessary consultation. I arrived in the late afternoon after most of his scheduled appointments. Dr Elisha and his office manager were there to receive me.
After the examination, Dr Elisha explained my condition, the options — both feel and cosmetics, and the cost — with and without insurance. They even arranged to split my payments between office visits. Pain, being the formidable and constant motivating force, I choose extract/​implant as soon as possible.
The procedure went well. Dr Elisha successfully extract the fracture tooth, and installed the buttress implant pin. Although the procedure was completely painless, Dr Elisha and his assistant constantly asked about any pain or strange sensation. He is warn and posses a great bedside manner. Their caring approach continued after the procedure ended. Hours later, Dr Elisha’s office manager, Reina, called to enquire how I was feeling, and whether I filled the pain medication prescription. In addition, if anything usual happened, she reminded me to consult the post-​procedure packet instructions; which included Dr Elisha’s contact number.
I returned to Dr Elisha’s office for several check-​up visits. Then and at all time, Dr Elisha and his staff were profession, courteous, and friendly; an excellent doctor and staff.
Dr. Elisha expertise and professionalism is exceptional, and is complemented further by his staff. The entire experience was a relief.
I highly recommend Dr Elisha to friends and family.

I had known for some time that I needed to get a dental implant. I kept putting it off for many reasons, mostly because of my fear of dentists and as equally, I wanted to make sure that it was done right. I spent a lot of time researching and I made appointments with several different dentists. Each time I left the office with that feeling that made me hesitate and continue my search.
A friend recommended Dr. Elisha, so I went in for the consultation. His office was very calm and welcoming. His staff very professional and nice. Dr. Elisha was very knowledgeable, explained what needed to be done, was caring and didn’t try to «sell» me on anything. To my surprise, I found myself scheduling the next appointment. The entire process for a dental implant is very long, months, and I was happy I had taken the first step and confident that I was at the right place. Two weeks ago I had the «surgery.» The worst part was the drive to the dentist office and walking in through the doors. My heart was racing and I was trying to remember my «yoga breathing.» The procedure was painless and not as long as I had imagined or anticipated. I had already told myself that I probably would be in horrible pain for days and that food was probably out of the question. The drive home, I was fine, that night, fine. I was able to eat and literally had no pain at all! I wanted to milk it a little and get some pampering and sympathy out of this surgery, but in all honesty, I couldn’t bring myself to take advantage of the situation. A week later I went in and had the stitches removed. Dr. Elisha had me open my mouth (I thought he was going to look at the gum and then numb it or something) but he reached in, clipped here and there, and the stitches were out! Again, no fuss, no pain, no drama.
This is the way visiting a dentist should be. My heart doesn’t race as I approach the office doors anymore. I’m greeted very professionally, the wait in the lobby is always minimal, and once I’m in the dentist chair, it’s painless and drama free. If you need to get a dental implant, I think you owe it to yourself to at least go in for a consultation.

I have been seeing Dr. Elisha and his staff for over 11 years. He was highly recommended by my dentist for periodental work and I see him every 3 months. He explains all of your options without overselling you services that are not needed.

The Staff including Dr. Elisha and Dr. Vu is very courteous and professional. No shady business here! I have been a patient of Dr. Vu for two years and the level of service is unparalleled. She also does a great job on administering the dreaded Novocain shot –which I hardly ever experience. They will explain any needed work on your teeth and will not try to sell you any unnecessary services.
Office is clean and tidy with a beautiful view. Also, they utilize the most advanced technology including digital x-​rays.
I have many more appointments to come — but I don’t feel petrified coming to the dentist anymore as I have in the past.

I came to Dr. Elisha for a dental implant after having a bad experience with another denist. I felt like I found a gold mine! 100% satisfied. The reception is professional, and my appointments are always on time. Dr. Elisha is gentle and an excellent peridontist. His prices are fair, you won’t be taken advantage of here. I have since move all my dental needs to his office and would highly recommend him and his staff. I am VERY happy!

I found Dr Elisha through Unilocal since I just moved here from NC and was looking for a new periodontist. So far I’ve had a consultation with Dr Elisha before and after a deep cleaning of both sides of my mouth from his associate Dr Vu. The work done there so far has been excellent and even more importantly, I trust him and he and Dr Vu are nice people who have taken time with me to explain everything. I am grateful to them also because I was given an expensive and complicated diagnosis from a periodontist in my home town of Chapel Hill that turned out to be exaggerated. The atmosphere in the office is relaxed and personable and there is essentially no wait. I couldn’t be more pleased.

Staff is great. Very professional. Dr. Vu is very caring.

A GREAT experience! Dr. Elisha was very friendly and made sure I understood the needed treatment. Treatment was rendered efficiently and with better than expected results. BONUSES: appointments are ALWAYS on time and super sweet staff!

After being put through the ringer by my previous and stupid dentist (William Ginzeburg), I got a new dentist (Dr. Shawn Rad) who hooked me up with Dr. Elisha when it was determined I was having issues with my gums. Believe me, I had done a TON of research and very much agreed with the assessment my new dentist AND Dr. Elisha gave me, so I trusted him. He said a few things to me that really reassured me as I was nervous about upcoming procedures and the looks of my teeth and gums.
The staff was nice and didn’t proceed with any treatment until everything was checked out with my insurance company. I was told of all my payments and how much anything extra would cost before anything was done… with the exception of my periodontal follow up cleaning, but I’ve forgiven them on that one because of everything else.
They also accept CareCredit (you can pay off with ZERO interest up to a year, possibly more), which saved my life considering how bad I’d let the health of my teeth get. Trust me folks, I’m one of those twice a day flossers now.

Hey there, I strongly recommend Dr. Elisha and his staff. I have always found him to be an excellent, competent, caring and reassuring dentist and have been very satisfied with my experiences there as a patient. I had dental surgery and no more problems. Reina in his office is a delight and very competent. Victoria
