Jeffrie N Maneepetasut, DMD

I really liked my old dentist who got my mouth into shape after a third world sadist ruined most of my teeth, however, I lost my job recently (along with my insurance) and then, shortly thereafter, I lost a filling. My old dentist would have simply cost too much which is how I ended up here.
$ 130 for x-​rays, cleaning, and a filling. A month or so later, I lost another filling (no matter how tempting it is to get dental work done in Central America, just say «No!») and was in and out in 20 minutes with my filling replaced and only $ 75 poorer.
The hygienist is a sweetheart, the dentist is taciturn and efficient. Free parking.

This is in response to Josephine E’s comments on 2÷9÷13. I am a dentist and felt compelled to set the record straight. What Dr. Manee recommended is correct and «by the book». A dental exam is not complete without a full set of xrays if you are a new patient. Heaven forbid Dr. Manee miss a cavity because the patient’s mother refused let him take xrays.
Dr. Manee is a solid dentist. I’m a dentist and I would see him if I needed dental care.

Going to the dentist is not my favorite thing in the world, but they did a nice job and I was in and out in under 30 minutes. I was glad to be able to get an appt. on a Saturday since I work during the week, and they did a quick but good job cleaning my teeth. Plus it was only $ 45 for an exam (no x rays this time) and cleaning!

Dr. Jeffrie is so nice. I went to have my teeth cleaned and filled.
The price is reasonable– $ 20 for consulting + $ 35 for Cleaning + $ 75 for filling.
Nice service as well. Recommend

The place is a SCAM !!! I hope save fellow Unilocalers from time, aggravation and money. My family just signed up with United Concordia dental plan which is a prepay plan. We were assigned Dr Maneepetasut as our family dentist since he was close to our home. I wanted to get a dental cleaning and referral to an orthodontist for my teenager. They would not evaluate without # 24, that is not a typo #24. Xrays !!! Of her teeth! Mind you, she has only had 1 cavity so far in her life !! Her previous dds from delta dental would take 4 xrays. So I asked for the minimum # of. Xrays. They said it couldn’t be done, not even 12 xrays, which at is really a bunch of INCOMPETENCE !!They refused to clean her teeth, which are in greatshape and they refused to refer her to an orthodontist. We just prepaid for NO service !! Terrible scam, after waiting over 1 hour ! The place is low end and low income feel. My strongest warning, don’t go unless you want to be ripped off !!! We are going back to delta dental!

I highly recommend Dr. Manee. I was in search of a dentist in the atwater area that would be Thai… haha I know I’m selective. But I had a thai dentist growing up and I thought I would feel more comfortable because I hadn’t seen a dentist for 8 years… yea yea I lied to Dr. Manee and told him it was 7 years. But he was really cool about it. I had an appointment at 10:30 and it was my first time. His DA is really nice and she’s helpful, she was talking to me and offered me a magazine while I waited. Dr. Manee is really nice, he’s a very straight forward guy and gives it to you straight. He didn’t find any cavities in the xray but looked thoroughly around and found one. Anyways, it’s nice because this facility has parking in the back so you don’t have to hassle with street parking, everyone is nice. If you want more info you can message me.

The fiancé had to get his teeth cleaned and checked out. So as the sweet fiancée that I am… I took him: D — Yes, true love is taking your hubby to the dentist.
The insurance covered him for this place. So we saw Dr. Jeff Maneepetasut and his wife (also a dentist). Pretty sweet people. Very cool dentist couple.
I waited in the waiting room while he got his teeth cleaned and such and BAM! Fiancé was done within a few min. He got everything checked and his teeth sparkly clean. Damn, that’s pretty good work.
I knew with a last name like that, he’s Thai but then I find out he’s half Thai and half El Salvadoran: D … how? He comes out speaking to the next patient in fluent SPANISH. He also speaks a little Thai. So that was fun. :D His wife is Taiwanese — so basically… if you are a Spanish, Chinese, Thai or English speaker… this is a good place for you.
The fiancé was satisfied… so I’m satisfied. :D
PARKING:
Easy parking in the back! Tons of parking… in Hollywood. Yes. This is true.
