Dr. Videgain is the best dentist I have ever seen. His attention to detail, efficiency and care for his patients are remarkable. It is refreshing to have a dentist who is so knowledgeable and experienced like he is. He also has a great attitude and sense of humor to top it off. :

I LOVE Santa Monica Dentists, especially Dr Videgain. For years, I dreaded going to the dentist, because no matter how hard I tried, I always had dental issues. I didn't go as frequently as I should have because of that. But I've been going to Santa Monica Dentists regularly for almost a decade. They are so patient, smart and kind. My teeth have never been healthier. I recommend Santa Monica Dentists to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Just a quick note to say what a great experience I had with Dr. Eric Videgain and his colleagues recently. My friends recommend the good doctor and receptionist Jamie made an appointment for me quickly. She has a great sense of humor. Dental assistant Kathy was sweet and caring. And Dr. Videgain is a gem. And if you like music and guitarists, you can find Jerry Garcia, Steve Morse and many more who live there in conversation. Thanks for assessing my situation so quickly with warmth and care. Makes me want to visit more.

Dr. Videgain (and staff) is the best dentist ever. Kind, caring, follows-up and explains everything. He takes the time to get to know each of his patients and follows a conservative care model, only recommending more invasive work if absolutely necessary. I've had the most chill and non-stressful dental experiences of my life here! I cannot recommend him enough!

Dr. Freed and Iris were great; they made me feel comfortable and explained everything. I went in for a toothache and ended up with a root canal (referral; recommended years ago, but the pain had subsided until recently), and a crown (Dr. Freed; the tooth had three fillings, the most recent and biggest is what lead to the root canal recommendation years ago). I currently have a temp crown, going back in a few weeks for the permanent one.
