Ray Padilla, DDS

My wife and I had been going to Dr. Padilla for a couple of years and thought it time to move on after he deceived me and lied to me about a mouth piece. We left his practice about two years ago. He asked me if I had sleeping problems and he wanted to get me into a sleep study and fit me with a mouth piece that he said would help. The first thing I asked him was how much this would cost me with my insurance. He told me they had checked, it would only be about $ 100.00. He ordered a piece that I would sleep with and It would measure my breathing. I wore it for 2 nights and send it back for the results. I came in 2 weeks later and he then told me the mouth piece would cost about $ 2000.00. I told him right way, you told me $ 100.00, my insurance would cover this. A nice way for him to make a lot of extra money! Then 2 weeks later I was billed $ 3000.00 by the sleep study. I told them to talk to Padilla about this. We took our business else where. Then just this week a received a bill for $ 190.00 from the sleep center after almost 2 yrs. I told them to contact Dr. Padilla! This guy is a con and tells me he is a Christian. Beware of this guy. I going the B.B.B.. Take your dental needs else where. I also feel he did un needed work while we went to him!

Dr. Padilla and his staff are fantastic! After years and years of not seeing a dentist, I was dreading going in but knew I had to and now, I’m so glad that I did. Dr. Padilla, Margaret, Jamie and Leslie are consummate professionals. I always feel welcomed, never feel rushed, am never left waiting in the office or chair, and am always confident that whatever procedure I will be having done in that visit will be done well and painlessly.
During that first visit, Dr Padilla took a lot of time going over the results of my dental x-​rays and outlining a plan of procedures, he made sure that I was well informed and comfortable with everything before starting anything. Since the first visit, I’ve had several appointments and I have to say that Dr. Padilla does amazing work! The crown and fillings that he’s done for me look great and I can’t feel a difference from my natural teeth at all. Margaret did a great job with my deep cleaning and she also spent a lot of time explaining what she was doing, and why, and gave some good advice on how appropriate cleaning between visits.
I definitely recommend Dr. Padilla and his staff if you are looking for excellent skill and patient care!

Just had my first appointment at Dr. Padilla’s office. Everyone was super nice and spent a lot of time with me explaining everything they were doing and why it was important. The office environment is clean and relaxing, the staff are professional and friendly, and the office itself was quiet and peaceful. Overall a great experience.

Best dentist on the planet. I’ve been to five in the LA area. Treats all sorts of athletic injuries too. been going to him for many years! Wouldn’t let anyone else look at my mouth!

Ray is wonderful! Staff is too! Best dentist I ever had. His work is reasonably priced. He cleans everything well. He has great chair-​side manners. I recommend him highly.

Dr. Padilla has been my dentist for 8 years. If you play hockey, you should come here because they are hockey fans and their athletic mouth guards are the best! Much more comfortable and easier to talk with it in. They are not expensive, but do quality work including cosmetic. I haven’t had any problems with filings or other work. The cleanings are great and they take time to work with you on improving your health.

Dr. Padilla is an outstanding dentist. He is experienced, conscientious and truly cares about his patients. Since I make every effort to take great care of my teeth, I especially appreciated his expertise after he found that I had a cracked tooth that I was not aware of that needed a crown, no doubt saving me from future pain and discomfort. I have also never had my teeth cleaned as gently and thoroughly as I have by Dr. Padilla’s exceptional dental hygienist. My wife and I travel to Manhattan Beach to Dr. Padilla’s office for our dental needs because he has earned our trust and confidence in him over the years of being our dentist.

As a dental professional myself it is extremely important to me that I have the best treatment that I would want my own patients to have … I have that here at Dr. Padilla’s office! I confidently refer my friends to Margaret the dental hygienist as well as to Dr. Padilla for all dental needs they have. Trust me, I have been in many dental practices and this one is top notch in not only their patient care but also office comfort and professionalism. If you are looking for a fabulous dental practice you will not be disappointed at all here! Thanks to all of you for your expert care!

Upon walking into Dr. Ray Padilla’s waiting room, I already began to relax due to the soothing environment, relaxing nature videos and even hot coffee or water! The receptionist was prompt and I was seated quickly. Each patient room I could see and the whole office was immaculate. I could tell that they really particular about keeping everything like the dental tools and patient rooms exceptionally clean. Dr. Padilla is warm and gracious and explained everyting ahead of time which is important to me! Nor surprises. Margaret, the hygienist was a sweetie and very thorough in her exam and cleaning. I was impresessed by the time they put into going to classses and lectures regularly. Lookfing forward to going again and I will recommend them to family and friends

Dr Padilla was recommended to me by a physician that takes care of my family. I had a major dental issue that needed immediate attention and Dr Padilla was able to repair the problem and save me from an implant. He is exceptionally skilled as well as being professional and tactful. Dr. Padilla and his staff made me feel very comfortable and welcome. I wish I had come to his practice years ago.

I was looking for a dentist since moving to LA and Dr. Padilla is easily the best choice. He’s friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him for all your dental needs.

We switched to Dr Padilla a few years ago when our dentist retired. It was a great move, Dr Ray & staff are very caring and accommodating. It is a wonderful pratice.

I am deathly afraid of dentists… but Dr. Padilla and all his staff have cured me of that!!! Huge Miracle. Thank YOU!
Now I am a regular (for years) and don’t have panic attacks anymore! They are all so nice and calming when you come in. Dr. Padilla takes his time, makes sure you are absolutely comfortable, explains everything and makes sure that you are ok through out the visit.
I highly recommend them too all my friends. He is close. The office is clean and sanitary. The staff is just AWESOME!

Dr. Padilla and his staff are the best and most professional dental office I have dealt with I’m over 50 years. My number one choice… I give them my highest recommendation.

I started seeing Dr Padilla about a year ago. What a blessing. Great staff, great office, great dentist. He is very gentle and explains everything. I highly recommend him.

Dr Padilla and his staff are caring and thorough. I went to office based on a recommendation by a client and have found Dr Padilla is genuine in his desire to help others. His pricing is fair and his staff does whatever it takes to make you feel at ease. The hygienist is wonderfully gentle during cleanings, the receptionist is patient through my 20 questions and his dental assistant is diligent.

Great dentist and staff! Super clean and inviting, incredibly sweet people and no 2 hour waiting room times like so many other doctors. I could not be happier with the service, or with the work theyve done on my teeth. Highly recommended!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Padilla for five years. I generally see just the dental hygenist (I have great teeth :)) but he’s been great for overview and some light dental work. Everyone in his office is great, very professional and a nice «vibe.» The office is very modern, bubbling fountains, mellow music, lots of videos of tranquil nature settings — it makes going to the dentist’s just that much easier…

Dr. Padilla is a great dentist. The facilities are nice and very clean and everyone working there is very knowledgable. He takes great pride in his work and even was nice enough to not charge me to fix a tooth because it would not be covered by insurance!
