Allure Dental

BEST dentist! Dr. Raffi Maronian is an amazing dentist. I had many bad experiences prior and I actually do not mind going to the dentist anymore. Dr. Maronian explains everything in detail and actually cares about each patient. He will spend the time and does not treat you as just another patient. Absolutely no pain and you always feel much better afterwards.

I have been coming to see Dr. Maronian for years now. He was referred to me by more than one very happy patient, and I refer others to him on a very regular basis. His office is small and clean and he has state-​of-​the-​art technology. Both him and his staff are the friendliest people around. He’s thorough and his prices are fair. I strongly recommend Allure Dentistry on Topanga Canyon in West Hills.

Amazing dentist and team! I use to hate and fear going to the dentist and Dr. Raffi changed that! He is personable and takes his time with you. Super gentle as well. Always a positive experience.

Awesome dentist and his team :) love love love this place
he is very informative and explains everything to you.

Dr. Maronian is the most amazing doctor! Once your in his chair he makes you feel very included in every decision and will answer any and all of your questions. He is a perfectionist so if your looking for a doctor who truly cares and wants the best for you, this is the place. His wife Esmeralda runs the front office who is absolutely wonderful as well and makes you feel so comfortable from the time you walk in to the office. The dental assistants are really great and do amazing work and they truly care as well.
Thank you for making my teeth and my three children’s teeth look amazing!

Amazing. It’s been 6 months since, I last came here.
Highly recommend. Staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and professional; always willing to help and answer questions. Esmeralda is a real Friendly receptionist always calls to confirm appointments! (Which I always forget)
I was referred to Dr. Maronian (2 years ago) by a close friend. I work literally 2 minutes away, without even knowing this GEM of a place existed! Besides the fact that they are excellent at what they do, everyone in the office is extremely friendly and very professional.
Makes going to a Dentist Office more relaxing.

Friendly receptionist and dentist but they are ridiculously priced. They tried to explain that my insurance would only cover so much making it seem as if it was my insurance fault I had to pay out of pocket bt when I compared their prices to other Dentist they just hi-​jack their services. Sorry not becoming a patient here.

Dr. Maronian & his staff are awesome! I have never met a dentist who explains everything so thoroughly and makes you feel completely at ease with everything. I ask a lot of questions & he answers them all without hesitation. He uses the latest form of dental technology so he has all of the cool gadgets to make everything quicker, less invasive, more sterile & easier. I recently had my first root canal ever with him. And it was not at all what I expected. It was so quick and easy and most importantly, pain-​free! Only took 30 mins. Esmerelda called me the next day to see how I was doing. :) Going to the dentist isn’t what it used to be. You don’t dread your visits. He’s breaking the mold.

I’ve been going here for about 1.5 years, each staff member is super nice and polite, definitely a pleasant atmosphere. They have cool Guiness World Record picture books, but I’ve never had to wait so I can’t look at more than a few pages at a time. Also, Dr Maronian really seems to care about your dental health and will give you his honest opinion based on his experience (unlike other dentists I’ve experienced where they try and use scare tactics just to make money). I’m extremely happy with the work he’s done on my teeth as well.

The name says it all — you’ll walk out of there with an alluring smile.
From the time you walk in until the time you walk out, the staff at Allure Dental is so hospitable and accommodating and makes sure that you are comfortable during your visit. They are very professional and knowledgable, and will look out for your best interest.
From checking in with the receptionist to sitting in the chair with the dentist, the staff makes sure that you are comfortable and are very professional and personable. The office is clean, easy-​going, state of the art equipment, and has a certain ambience that puts you at ease.
I definitely would not make the commute if I were not satisfied with the results at Allure Dental. It is worth the drive.
Very professional, friendly, accommodating, and comfortable. Thanks Dr. Raffi and staff!

I was referred to «Dr. Raffi» by my brother who is TERRIFIED of all dentists! I’m so glad I took his advice. Not only is Dr. Raffi (and his entire staff) knowledgeable and efficient but they achieve this while being so personable.
Dr. Raffi literally «save my smile.» No this is no joke, he noticed that one of my front teeth was dropping and gave me the advice necessary to save my tooth!
I love how he explains everything so well. So much so that my entire family has now moved over to his ULTRA technologically advanced office and we are all exceptionally happy!
If you want an HONEST, forthright, excellent dentist, then Dr. Raffi is your man.

If you want a dentist that explains everything he is doing and why then Dr. Maronian is the dentist for you. There are no surprises.
I refer all my friends and family to Allure Dental.
The staff is always professional and friendly.
Thank Allure Dental for years of making my teeth look good.

I was referred here by my cousin, who has been seeing Dr. Raffi for years! He was excellent in explaining the plan to strengthen my dental health. The process was quick and painless, even though I had to get more than 7 fillings and a root canal in one visit. The Doctor also advised of after care.
The team of associates that assist you at this office are top notch! You can tell they actually care and remember you when you return. I have never felt so comfortable at a dentist office.
I have had bad experiences at other offices, where I felt I was ripped off, or they were trying to sell me something that I did not need. I have dental insurance and other offices always seemed to find a way to charge me up to a $ 1000 even though it was a few minor things I needed. Dr. Raffi gave me the choice of what I could do and what was most cost effective in the long run. I really felt like I was in control of my dental health for the first time in a long time!
Thank you Allure Dental! I will be a patient for life!

Update: I was lied to. I went here and was told i had gum disease and needed a deep cleaning with follow up cleanings etc… I had such a strange feeling so i went for a second opinion and the dentist told and showed me that i do not have gum disease at all. This company is a fraud in my book.
Initial post: Customer service is a big deal to me. The receptionist here was nice and sweet, but, she disregarded calling me back several times in one day but I overlooked it and thought, let me just try the dentist and look past her. The dentist and assistant were great and had a totally different vibe then the receptionist.
On another day, she again, told me she would try to help me and call me back. Never did. It’s important to help new nervous patients feel comfortable. Nice isn’t just a sweet voice, it’s being considerate as well. Final thoughts, if I am frustrated at the door, it doesn’t matter what else happens. There are plenty of good dentists out there with considerate receptionists. I’m sick of fake nice customer service, frankly.
Okay so to top it off for me, the same receptionist calls me after reading her review and tries to convince me that she was confused and that she called me back but my baby was crying so she was waiting for my call. This is so unprofessional. She somehow snuck an «I’m sorry you feel that way» in. Rather than saying I am sorry for treating you that way. First of all, I would never answer my phone if my baby was crying, I do however recall her calling once when he was sleeping in which I returned her call but this was a different occasion and she was trying to convince me it was my fault for her poor customer service. Once again, a sweet voice only gets you so far. I feel bad because I am not usually particular but that is what Unilocal is for, to give honest reviews.

I can’t tell you what a blessing it has been for me and my family to find Dr. Maronian, Danielle and Esmerelda.
For years I have dreaded going to the dentist, and have endured sub-​par work, uneccessary pain and frustration. Since my first visit with Dr. Maronian, my fear of the dentist has vanished.
He is a perfectionist, which is refreshing to find in a dentist. He talks you through every step, is completely honest and his work speaks for itself. Ive had several root canals, crowns and caps and all of them have outlasted anything my other dentist tried to do.
Now, my husband and I’s entire family go to Dr. Maronian, and I will keep sending new clients his way. Dr. Maronian and his staff are an absolute gem in the SF Valley and I couldn’t be happier!!!

I used to have to have nitrous oxide just to get my teeth cleaned. I finally got over that but then I started to go to another dentist in the valley who was rough and did not care if he was hurting me. After one session I could hardly open my jaw and eat for 3 days. I went online and found Allure and made an appointment. WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Dr. Raffi is like an angel with a drill (lol). He tells you the shots will hurt but he also numbs you enough so the procedure doesn’t. My teeth are in the hands of an expert who loves his patients and it shows.

I love Allure Dental! They are awesome! I have been to so many dental offices and none of them compare to Allure Dental. Dr. Maronian and his staff are very friendly and helpful. I look forward to all my dental appointments! I recommend Allure Dental to all my family and friends.

Raffi, Esmeralda, and Danielle are wonderful, do not hesitate to have your crown work done here. All in all Allure never ceases to amaze me.

Dr. Raffi is the most aswesome dentist on the planet. He is very kind and gentle. I bring my whole family here and have never been disappointed. If you are truly scared of the dentist he will change that after the first meeting. He will talk you through whole procedure to keep you aware of what Is going on. I highly recommend this dentist if you only want the best.
