Miracle Smile Dentistry

Love my dentist or should I say Dentist’s. Dr. Bae and Dr. Kasprzak are both good but very gentle. Haven’t had any problems with my teeth and am glad to say that I am always smiling. Thank you doctors for my miracle smile!

The office is clean and contemporary. I like that they use a camera to show me my teeth on the big screen. I didn’t feel a thing! In fact, I fell asleep during the procedure. Overall, great service!

I’m writing this review for people who HATE the dentist because I am one of those but this place was awesome! Everyone was incredibly friendly, the environment was super clean (unlike my old dentist, yuck), and they kept me very informed throughout the appointment of everything going on with my teeth.

I came here through my friend’s referral and it’s been a better experience than a lot of the other dentists I’ve had to go through in LA. The online appointment system is really useful and they confirm it for you and send reminder texts as the day gets closer. The office is clean and there is plenty of metered parking along the streets (usually two hour limit). It’s great that they’re open Saturdays and until 6pm on weekdays, which usually allow me to visit around my work schedule. Dr. Bae personally attended to all of my fillings and she made me feel comfortable. Her work is quick, painless and clean. What more can you ask for from your dentist? Everyone at the office is also very friendly, organized and efficient. It’s a thumbs up from me.

I have been coming here for years, and have always received a warm welcome and thorough cleaning. The staff has changed over the years, but the friendliness and care for clients continues. It can be hard to find a good dentist in this town, but I’ve been pleased for nearly 10 years. Clean office with latest technology makes it a solid choice.

this is my first review I’ve written on Unilocal.I decided to check out miracle smile because it’s close to my house and had overall good reviews. I read the lower reviews about upselling and problems with fillings, but I figured an over all 4 stars was still worth a shot.
I went to the dentist in my home town over Christmas 4 days ago. he did x-​rays and told
me I had ONE cavity on my wisdom tooth. so I made an appointment at miracle smile when I got back to LA to get it fixed.
my appointment was for 9am, I got there at 8.45 and all the assistants and the dentist were standing outside because no one had a key to get in. someone came to unlock the building around 9.10.
I got in fairly quickly, had forwarded them my x-​rays. they told me they needed to re-​do them because they couldn’t see the smallest top corner of one of the teeth. so they took new x-​rays.
dentist came in and told me I had FIVE cavities and should have ALL of my wisdom teeth removed. she said if I would try to get the cavity filled, I’d probably need a root canal and it would cause pain in my other teeth and to get the other cavities filled.
also, they never used the new x-​ray they took as she could clearly see the affected area on the ones my previous dentist had sent. I very clearly told them I didn’t want to pay for the x-​ray they took and didn’t use. but paying for the consultation was basically like throwing money in the garbage. I’m going to another dentist on Tuesday on the recommendation of a friend. should have went to this new one in the first place. the consultation is half the price and the practice is very reputable.

This is by far the best dentist /​dentist office I’ve ever been to!!! Dr Bae is the best!

My wife wrote this review for me, since I didn’t know how to use Unilocal. But the company made Unilocal take it down because it was a «2^nd party review». I had to figure out how to use this, in order to let everyone know what happened. That’s how shitty this situation has been…
I copied and pasted, because I stand by every word in here. This was a horrible experience and I am still dealing with the aftermath of what happened to me here. Miracle Smile also called me to ask me to take the review down and tried to tell me the doctor who did this to me no longer worked there and therefor it wasn’t their fault. UNREAL.
THE MOST INCOMPETENT DENTIST OFFICE I HAVE EVER SEEN. AVOID AVOID AVOID.
We live around the corner and my husband loved the convenience of the office. He had a few cleanings and fillings done in the past. A few of the fillings would fall out, but he kept going back anyway. One day ANOTHER filling fell out so he made an appointment to get it fixed.
When he sat in the chair he was told they could not fix the filling without a deep cleaning first. This seemed ridiculous, but he agreed to the cleaning in order to fix his tooth (which they messed up in the first place). They proceed to clean his teeth and told him that they would not have time to fix his tooth that day and they would reschedule a time 2 days later to fix the filling. LEAVING HIM IN PAIN FOR 2 DAYS.
During the cleaning, the dentist told him that he needed to have his wisdom teeth removed. She then starting poking at the gums around the tooth — which my husband describes as painful with no reason. She wasn’t cleaning the tooth, just poking the gums and telling him that he needed to have them removed.
That night my husband could not sleep because of the pain his mouth was in. Not only was his filling still out but his gum around his wisdom tooth had become incredibly swollen and raw. The office was booked the next day and could only see him on his scheduled appointment in 2 days.
HE SPENT 2 DAYS IN PAIN.
Finally, when it was time for his appointment the dentist told him that an infection had grown in his wisdom tooth where she had poked it 2 days prior. Instead of giving him antibiotics and letting the infection heal, she told him the tooth needed to be taken out that minute, by her. The process was terrible for him. Since they do not have the ability to put anyone under, they took out the tooth with only local pain meds and my husband passed out due to the pain. He called me to come and pick him up. THEY STILL DIDN’T FIX HIS FILLINGS.
When I went to pick him up, they gave me a prescription for «vicodin» — I can’t even make this stuff up. There was no amount listed, no milligram, nothing. Just the word vicodin on a piece of paper. I went to the pharmacy to get it filled and was laughed at and told that no doctor would be so unprofessional as to leave the basic information needed from the pad. At this point my husband is waiting in the car with no pain medication after having a wisdom tooth removed. He is almost delirious with pain. I had to drive back to the dentist office and wait for the dentist to write another prescription. He was also given a mouth rinse by the dental assistant and told to rinse twice a day.
The wound wasn’t healing and when he went back in a week later for his checkup (with another dentist at the office) he was told that the other dentist messed up. The mouth rinse he was given was NOT meant to be used and it was preventing his wound from healing. The other dentist didn’t properly close this wound and the new lady needed to open it back up and fix it. Another incredibly painful experience for my husband. Meanwhile, his fillings are still not fixed. I was given another prescription for him and we left — again — he is sittng in the car in pain.
When we get to the pharmacy, the prescription was written on the wrong pad! They can’t fill it. FUMING AT THEIR INCOMPETENCE I drive back to their office for yet ANOTHER prescription. My husband is barely able to handle the pain at this point and needs something (as the local meds have worn off). I am told by the woman at the desk that the dentist was with another patient and we would just have to wait. 45 MINUTES LATER the dentist comes out and tells the woman at the front desk that she should have absolutely gotten her from the other patient to help.
Apparently the new dentist forgot her prescription pad and was unable to give my husband any pain medication. We had to wait HOURS for the other doctor to get back to the office and write a prescription from her pad.
To make matters worse, this dentist over charged our insurance for everything. When we went to an actual, real, reliable dentist we had to pay out of pocket for the filling to be fixed.
In short. DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE UP SOLD A CLEANING THAT COULD POTENTIALLY TURN INTO A VERY PAINFUL DISASTER.

I’ve been going to Miracle Smile since 2013. This is mass produced dentistry at it’s finest. If Target was a dentist’s office, it would be here. Most recently I saw Dr. Nushin Shir and I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this compassionate dentist (she’s 5 stars). During my teeth cleaning she was able to identify that I was having stomach problems and encouraged me to see a gastroenterologist. She even went so far as to get my email address and send me the name of an amazing G.I. that cured her husband of his issues. Dr. Shir also has a fairly wicked sense of humor. I like her and I know she cares about her work. She was training another girl and it was nice to see how she spoke to this gal and encouraged her to learn.
As far as the office goes, I’ve never waited more than 5 minutes to see the dentist. There is always street parking on the side street (free). They allow you to use Care Credit if needed — they’ll defer the interest for 18 months and are usually willing to barter with your bill (they’ve taken 10% off before and $ 200 from another procedure). My only grievance I’ve more than once heard other patients complaining in the office for various things and it makes me slightly uneasy (plus it usually sounds like the patient is right).
This place is still a dentist’s office, so it’s not heaven on earth, but since we have to go, you may as well go here.

Miracle smile is really great. The Dr. and other employees are all very informative and caring.

My best dental experience ever! In my entire life! DENTIST — is a scary word! I almost hated most of the dentist I ever visited… Except for them! Why?
— Miracle Smile staff are super friendly!
— I changed my appointment several times and they are still very happy
— Great location
— Starting from the X-​Ray, they asked me to smile:)
— They do not just offer you a wash, they check every little things in your mouth! From X-​Ray, to physical observation.
— Very less waiting, I got everything done almost without waiting and I was very comfortable with their service
— Nice staff, I like how they talk to me to make me less nervous
Anyways, lots to complement about them!
Just go there and you will be pleased!
Dr Kim is the main dentist and she will do some check for you by the end.
And my hygienist is «poei», sorry if I spell it wrong. I can fix it if you see it:)

I hadn’t been to the dentist in over 10 years because I had a really terrible experience growing up. So you can imagine what terrible shape my teeth were in.
I’ve gone to see Dr. Bae three times in the past few months and I’ve gotten 8 fillings altogether. I still have to get a crown and a few other things, but so far my experience has been amazing.
Dr. Bae is an expert and really cares for her patients. She will always pause to make sure everything is okay before she moves on. Thank you Dr. Bae for your care and expertise!
Overall, I highly recommend Miracle Smile!

I love this office and my hygienist Kate is super friendly! It’s clean, they play Sinatra, and they are gentle on my mouth. Parking in the back too!

I found this place through Unilocal and went my first cleaning/​comprehensive exam last night. Everyone including Angie/​receptionist to Kate/​hygienist to Dr. Kim/​dentist was suuuuuuuuuuper nice, helpful, and caring. They walked me over everything they were doing to my teeth and any concerns they have on my current habits.
I especially want to thank Kate for being such a down to earth lady and making sure I was comfortable during my whole cleaning process. PS. your pom is so cute!!! :)
Will definitely come back for my next cleaning!

I was able to get a same day appointment on my first visit. The staff at Miracle Smile are fast, professional, and considerate. I was given a clear quote with details of work needed and what I can expect. to pay. They offer several payment plans to help you. Great staff and office.

I’ve had TERRIBLE and traumatic experiences with dentists so I can’t express enough how happy I am to have finally found a good quality and friendly dental office. Sandi has preformed my routine teeth cleaning twice now — she is the best! She is thorough yet gentle and her love and passion for dentistry really shows. She is informative and is patient and welcoming if you have any questions. The front desk is equally as awesome. The office is clean and all the equipment/​machines are new. Love Miracle Smile!

I was referred here by my boyfriend, who has a fantastic smile!
I have not been to the dentist for a very long time due to lack of health insurance.
Not having insurance was so bad, that I ended up removing my braces BY MYSELF (a very dangerous task.)
Needless to say, I couldn’t get off every bracket, nor could I remove those band/​spacers. So I have been suffering with metal in my mouth that would catch on my cheeks and gums for far too long.
I decided to go into Miracle mile, embarrassed I told Dr. Bae my story. She told me not to worry and that everything would get taken care of.
She took off those pesky braces and removed the cement that was caked on my teeth. She then proceeded with x-​rays, her assistant was so sweet and accommodating. We got the x-​rays back, no new cavities! I was so excited about that, but I did have some fillings that have worn away with time. So I need to get those fixed.
Dr. Bae did a thorough cleaning and recommended a retainer to keep my teeth straight and a mouth guard for my TMJ.
Everything was super affordable with my new insurance and I couldn’t be happier with my experience here. I highly recommend Miracle Smile and Dr. Bae. They know what they’re doing and they are so hospitable.

This was my first visit to Miracle Smile, as I am new to the area and they came highly recommended by my brother who has gone to them for years. I just went for a cleaning and it was smooth and painless (very important to me). Since I just moved here I don’t have insurance yet and the cleaning I thought was still priced very reasonable and that included x-​rays. The staff was extremely friendly and informative and I felt like the Dr. really paid attention to what was going on with a few concerns I had about a few sensitive teeth. I also have two dental implants that need replacing and they were able to assist me with that as well. I am definitely a loyal patient now and will refer anyone who needs an amazing dentist in LA!

I have been coming to Miracle Smile for years, since I lived walking distance away. I have sinced moved to Encino, but I still choose to drive into the area just to go to my favorite dentists.
My most recent trip was for a cleaning and checkup including X-​Rays. Both procedures were quick and painless. As usual, everyone was extremely professional and thoughtful. The staff is also extremly prompt; I never wait for more than 2 or 3 minutes before being seen for my appointments.
You really can’t go wrong with Miracle Smile.

Very modern office. Free water bottles and sugar free gum. They text appointment confirmations if you want. They have computer screens above each chair so they can show you what’s going on with your teeth. Everyone who works there is friendly and competent. Well organized office.
Dr. Bae is an excellent doctor. She explains dental procedures in a way that’s easy to understand. Every time I go there she teaches me something new and helpful. She’s the best dentist I’ve ever had.
I’ve been to several dentists who are super eager to put crowns on my teeth because it’s a good money maker for them. Dr. Bae has saved me lots of money by doing everything she can to avoid costly procedures. and they’ve all worked!
After having a very troublesome and complicated tooth extracted, Dr. Bae called me that evening to check up and see how I was doing. She really cares about her patients. Hooray for Dr. Bae!
I also really like the way Dr. Bae talks with her staff. She has a very friendly and professional manner with them. never raises her voice or gets impatient with them. She’s treats them respectfully. That’s a great quality in a business owner of any kind. I always feel better about doing business with someone who treats their employees well, and Dr. Bae does indeed treat her staff well.
I met with Dr. Choi on one of my visits because Dr. Bae was at her other office that day. She was also excellent. She diagnosed a troublesome tooth, but added that I was welcome to get a second opinion. She wasn’t pushy about getting any costly procedures done. As a matter of fact, she offered a very low cost temporary fix if I wanted that as an option.
Monetary matters are patiently and thoroughly explained by Elizabeth… yet another very competent and capable person in the office. She’s terrific.
Go there for yourself. You’ll be duly impressed with all the staff, the office, and the doctors.
