Wullschlager Gary, DDS

Have been going to Dr. Waullschlager for years. I actually didn’t know the difference in quality until I moved to OC and tried a few local Dentists in Orange. It seems like all the Dr.‘s in Orange are total con men. From the reviews I’ve been reading about dentists, the new generation of dentists are all the same. The dentist tells you how bad your teeth are and they bring in a salesman to close the deal which often amounts to many procedures amounting to thousands of dollars. I stopped looking for Dentists in OC and still make the trip to Pasadena to visit Dr. Wullschlager. If you want an honest very good Dentists, Dr. Wullschlager is your man.

I am terrified of dentists and was fortunate when friends recommended Dr. Wullschlager. If he ever retires, I am screwed. I moved out of state and drive back to go to him — that’s how good he is. He is an artist and takes care and pride in his work. He just replaced my tooth in front and he did not like the intial match for color and had it redone. When it comes to your teeth, you really want a perfectionist.
Not only is he skilled as a dentist, but as a people person. His staff is welcoming, warm and friendly as well.

best dentist!!! he’s a little pricey and sometimes it takes months to get in, cause they’re so busy, but well worth it!!! i have been going to him for over 15 years and he is by far the best around… helped out whenever he could and totally went out his way!!!

I actually just signed up for Unilocal in order to post a review for Dr. Wullschlager. I had been going from dentist to dentist for about 15 years before I visited Dr. Wullschlager — and I’m so glad I found him.
He is very calming, alternating between a bit of small talk and explanations, in Lehman’s terms, of what’s going on in your mouth.
He is great about not recommending unnecessary work. When I first went to him years ago, my dentist had told me I was going to need about 4 fillings. I decided to get a second opinion before blowing all that money. Dr. Wullschlager looked at my teeth and felt that while there were a few weak spots on my teeth, it would be a little premature to drill and fill. All these years later, only one of the teeth has needed to be filled, and the other three are even stronger than they were before.
He recommended a fantastic oral surgeon when I needed my wisdom teeth taken out (Dr. Kim Ebner).
Most importantly, he does solid work. Fortunately I’ve only needed a couple fillings since I’ve been seeing him. Both of those fillings were done extremely well. They have not fallen out, there are no sharp edges, and I don’t have any lasting sensitity to cold and pressure.
As for his staff, they are always pleasant, and run a fairly smooth operation. Things may run a few minutes behind from time to time, but as someone from a family of doctors, I realize delays like that are not entirely in the hands of the office.
With regard to the negative review below, I feel it is a bit unfair to give a one star rating because the dentist was too busy to address the emergency of someone who was (presumably) not even a patient. At the very worst, it was a misunderstanding by the receptionist about the nature or severity of the problem.
If you are able to get an appointment with him, you won’t be disappointed.
I hope this review was helpful.

I cannot say enough GREAT things about Dr. Wullschlager and his entire staff!
I feel you will get a totally honest evaluation. I went to the office to get a old filling replaced with a crown. Once he got in and drilled out the old filling he said there was no need to have a crown and he put in a new filling. Saved me a lot of money.

Sorry the other poster had a bad experience, but I went to this guy today and he is awesome. I’ve never had such a laid back dentist spend so much time explaining everything in such a way that it was both easy to understand and reassuring. It took a while to get an appointment, but if you can wait, the wait is worth it!

I desperately needed to see a dentist because one of my back tooth broke, so my boss recommended his dentist: Gary Wullschlager. So I made a appointment to see the dentist, and I was told by the lady on the phone that my appointment was a month from the day I called. My reaction was «WTF? My teeth are going to fall off» FRACK THAT!!! If I had known it was going to take this long, I would of just made the damn appointment for next year!
