We love Dr. Jeffrey Yamashiro in Gardena. My husband is totally dental-phobic, but happily goes to Dr. Yamashiro - he's great with adults and children.

Hi Linda:
I have a great dentist for you. You see I'm a chicken when it comes to going to the dentist. His name is Russell F. Coser, D.D.S. He is located at 4201 Torrance Blvd. Suite 460, Torrance,
CA 90503. ###-###-#### Fax ###-###-####. You will love him. He is so gentle, I have never experience any dentist like him. And guess where I found him. 1-800-dentist I told them my problem and the kind of dentist I wanted AND THEY RECOMMENDED him.
Dr. S. Clark

not exactly in the south Bay, but Dr. Schwarting, in Playa Del Rey, is the only dentist I go to - actually the only dentist my entire family goes to, from the babies to the older generation. I have been seeing him since I was 4 or 5, and my kids have seen him since they were a year old. All of my cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, grandparents, etc. go there. He does not take HMO's anymore I don't think, but we have a pretty good PPO plan. He is very experienced, and the office staff is wonderful :) Give the office a call, Del Rey Dental, and schedule an appointment - ###-###-####.

I absolutely love MAGICLAND dental in Torrance. It's at the corner of Hawthorne Blvd & Torrance Blvd. There is a toy train & tracks that go along the whole perimeter of the ceiling that the kids can watch. In the waiting room there are video games and even a little door for the kids to walk through into the dental area. The doors are glass and it's an open area, the rooms are not separate so the kids can watch the other kids (there are separate rooms for the screamer so no one gets scared). The assistants and dentists are constantly giving the kids little toys and giving them goodies. The best part, there is a flat screen above every dental chair so they kids can watch movies. My little one has been to her fair share of terrible & mean dentists, I never leave this one!

Hi! We love Pacific Dental Aesthetics in Manhattan Beach, its a great office, great staff, they explain all the procedures and make you feel very comfortable. Its the least judgemental office I have been to all my life. I tottally recommend it.

Their website is www.pacificdentalaesthetic.com and their phone number is ###-###-####. They are right off Aviation near Rosecrans.

Dr. Jones is an incredibly patient man, as is his staff. I actually hit his arm away the first time he tried to administer a shot of novacain. What I love best about going to him, is his knowledge of his field. I have total confidence in him.
