I was really hopeful about Dr. Bita. She came highly recommended and seems like she has a great practice. Unfortunately she seemed hesitant to treat me. I came in with some dental pain and some anxiety about the pain and I thought that she would be able to resolve it. She was kind, but very dismissive and did not want to diagnose me or examine my teeth. However, when I went somewhere else, they were able to diagnose me ( a cracked filling) and treated me quickly and cheaply.
I am thinking of trying Dr. Bita again as I found her doctor's office pleasant as well as her staff. And she seems very knowledgable overall, just not with me. Though I was disappointed with her treatment of me, I think she has a great office and a great staff and I would recommend to give her a try. Just maybe start with a cleaning and not a dental emergency.

Dr Bita has been taking care of my smile for the past 15 years. Desert Dental is the only place I recommend when people ask me if I know a good dentist. I have referred friends and family here. We all love it. They always work with me and my schedule to keep my smile bright. Years ago Dr Bita changed out my metal fillings for composite. I couldn't be happier with the result.

"One of the best dental offices I have had in my life" Every time I go my visits are pleasant and I get the best care available, the staff is top notch and are always making sure that I am kept up with all of my appointments and cleanings. I know that people get afraid when they hear that they need work done, but at Desert Dental you can be rest assured that your visits here will be comforting and stress free.
I actually catch myself snoozing when work is being done to me so that right there is proof that they are one of the best out there. Located in North Hollywood next to Leash, the parking is ample, office is one of the most stylish I've ever come across, and the staff are super friendly and courteous!. If you are looking for a dental office that won't scare you away from getting your work done on your teeth trust me this place is what you need you'll thank me later.
