Jerome A. Guttman, DDS

Paula runs the front office and takes care of the insurance submissions and appointment scheduling. If Dr. Guttman or the hygienist is running behind, she will contact me to rearrange the appointment time. This is appreciated very much; as I have better things to do than sit in a waiting room!

Dr. Guttman deals with dental chickens (like me) in a caring manner. I have had several root canals and one extraction of an infected tooth, followed by a bridge. I am very happy with the bridge. He has also done several crowns for me. I am very hard on my dental work, and the crowns have been known to come off when the dental cement gave up. Recently I had this happen when Dr. Guttman was leaving the office. He agreed to wait a set number of minutes for me, and when I made it in to his office, had my crown reattached in no time!

I've had dental phobia my whole life - not anymore! My whole life I've had one thing or another going on in my mouth - a cavity, a needed root canal, a cracked tooth, a baby tooth that refused to come out at 35, you name it I had it! I had my first tooth pulled when I was 10 and it was such a bad experience I never wanted to go to the dentist again. Than i found this place and it was the best experience ever they made sure i was comfortable and explained everything to me as they were doing it step by step. Thank you for your comfort and patience.

For those who hate the dentist and would rather crawl over broken glass than head in for a check-up or treatment, Dr. Guttman's office is a wonderful, safe and freeing change of pace.

Dr. Guttman's office is incredibly kind and attentive. As a "dental chicken" the staff takes every effort to be pleasant and welcoming and I actually find myself looking forward to appointments.

The dentist is very patient and thorough. He clearly is the best dentist around. Thanks Dr. Guttman for everything.

Dr. Guttman and his staff are friendly, compassionate, and professional. All in all, you can't expect more from a visit to the dentist.

I got my teeth cleaned at this office. I also had a snore guard made. If you snore, having one of these will help you stop snoring and allow you to have more restful sleep. Thanks guys!

"If you have ANY dental fears DEFINITELY go see Dr. Guttman. You'll love him.
I've had dental phobia my whole life - not any more! My whole life I've had one thing or another going on in my mouth - a cavity, a needed root canal, a cracked tooth, a baby tooth that refused to come out at 35, you name it I had it! I had my first tooth pulled when I was 10 and it was such a bad experience I never wanted to go to the dentist again...and every time I did the dentist would fill me full of bad news and would really get my anxiety going. So obviously I developed a good case of dental phobia."

Thank you for making the appointment very easy and very comfortable. I usually have anxiety over needles, but I felt at ease here.

"All in all, it was great to see Dr. Guttman move on to a more exceptional dental office.

In the end, I'm happy that I decided to stay loyal to my dentist."

The office itself is homey, modern, and the staff is very friendly. The whole process was not long, and on my way back home, I drove on the coast. (which is only a minute away from the office!) Gorgeous view!!! That sure was an added bonus :)

I made an appointmentfor the first time in Playa Del Rey. The receptionist was very accommodating with my schedule. She even called to confirm my appointment a couple of days ahead, and when I showed up early for it, they were able to bump up my appointment! How fantastic is that?

I have been a patient of Dr. Guttman for a few years now. I was first recommended to him by my dad. He is very personable, gentle, and is phenomenal at what he does. He used to work in the city of Montebello, but when I called to make a routine check-up, I found out that he had moved to a different location. I was shocked and bummed out when I first found out it was about 40 minutes away vs the usual 15...but, I do only have to go twice a year, right? Shouldn't be so bad. I would not go any where else.

I like the little touches, like text and email reminders for appointments. It's a small office , with a friendly relaxed feel, but they sure know what they are doing!

I have to say, though I didn't know what to expect- Dr. Guttman was great! Very gentle and caring, and explained what he was doing before he did it. That put me at ease, so I would know what to expect. I really like his gentle nature and caring attitude.

Would recommend Dr Guttman for anything. Great staff and really do make dentistry human.

Amazing dr and amazing staff. I have had issues for over 6 years and they fixed me all up in a matter of weeks. They made me feel complete again. I have confidence again and that's important in my line of work.

I've had dental problems since I started teething as a toddler! Naturally, since every trip to the dentist ended up with me in tears as a child and young adult I developed a pretty big case of the jitters around going to the dentist - sick to my stomach, shaky, teary - all your classic anxiety symptoms. My fear of the dentist would normally keep me away just long enough to have a relatively small dental issue grow into a pretty severe one. Then I met Dr. Guttman.

I am the epitome of the "dental chicken." Just thinking of the word dentist makes me physically sick to my stomach. I broke a front tooth, so after years of procrastination, I was forced to go to a dentist. I found Dr. Guttman by a stroke of luck. After a few further months of procrastination, I got to know him through e-mail and slowly earned my trust. I went to see him last Saturday to finally have the tooth fix and he put me right at ease with nitrus, local anesthesia, and oral medication. I didn't feel a thing. While, I am still terrified of the dentist, I know that as the months roll on and I have more work done, I will be able to count on Dr. Guttman to calm my nerves and ensure that I never feel anything, if I am even awake at all. His staff is also very friendly and warm. I would recommend Dr. Guttman to anyone! In fact, I am taking some of his business cards to work with me.

It was a record day for me seeing a dentist not waiting for years to go by because of my fear. Dr. Guttman knew how to deal with my fear and anxiety and I was calm. I actually went back to get another filling done. My son was shocked knowing I didn't like dentists and had a horrible fear of them and went back to Dr. Guttman after a great first experience. Anyone with anxiety or fear like me for years should go see Dr. Guttman. I actually looked forward to seeing him last Saturday.

I have always been a person who has been afraid of the Dentist, even at an age over 50. I must say I just had the most unbelievable visit with Dr. Guttman and his entire staff. If I had to rate their level of professionalism, on the scale of 1-10 it would be a 10. This is my first time meeting Dr. Guttman, and he is a Dentist that really cares about his patients, I could tell that he is a very compassionate person and a professional from the very beginning, I had several procedures that needed to be done, and the timing of completion was critical due to a very important business trip that is scheduled for the East Coast.. I meet the Dr, along with Paula and Debbi, who were extremely supportive of my needs and worked with me on a short notice to get things started and completed. MY experience was so favorable that if I lived anywhere else in the country I would fly back for my service. This is service like the old days when businesses really cared about their patients. My last point is that Dr. Guttman communicates what he is doing as he is completing his procedures, and that made me feel very relaxed and eliminated the tense feeling i had before i got to his office. One extra thing is that because he has a gentle voice, it makes a difference. I would recommend Dr. Guttman and his entire staff as your future dentist.

The staff is so friendly, the Saturday hours are graet and it is much less rushed experience than I had at my previous dentist. All around a very well run office!

Teeth cleaned! Great experience. These guys are the best!

A dental practive that i can safely recommend! Takes great care of me!

Dr. G and his entire staff always make me feel welcome and at ease. I actually ENJOY my trips to the dentist now.

Paula and Debbie always make you feel welcome and help you in any way. The entire staff and Dr.guttman are great.

My overall experience is very pleasent and I trust Dr. Guttman and his staff would always take good care of this dental chicken.

Another wonderful visit. Dr. Guttman and his staff are amazing. They understand that some of us are a bit terrified going to a dentist. They do everything they can to eliminate the fear and trepidation. I highly recommend Dr. Guttman

Great People, Great Service! trustworthy dentist and staff the truthful dentist Dr. Guttman

Dr.Guttman..is the best dentist in the world!!

I'm one of those people who has anxiety about going to the dentist. I went to Dr. Guttman who is new in the area and I have to say he was terrific. He has a nice low-key personality and a great sense of humor, and made me feel quite at ease. My last dentist was always urging me to have various procedures, and Dr. Guttman really sorted it all through and told me what was necessary and what was not. I will definitely keep seeing him.

The office itself is homey, modern, and the staff is very friendly. The whole process was not long, and on my way back home, I drove on the coast. (which is only a minute away from the office!) Gorgeous view!!! That sure was an added bonus :) All in all, it was great to see Dr. Guttman move on to a more exceptional dental office.

I am very happy with the whole procedure and how well it went. My crown fits great, the fillings look great, and I know that my mouth is in good hands.

I was the biggest chicken and had a horrible fear of dentists having had bad experiences all my life. Dr. Guttman took away that fear completely. I have never been to a dentist that was completely pain free. I had a filling done and later in the day and the next day I felt nothing. He was sensitive to my fears and talked me through the process. I was so happy with my results I'm looking forward to seeing him again. Anyone out there with a fear of dentists should definitely schedule with Dr. Guttman.

Dr. Guttman has proven to me what a skilled professional he is. He is gentle, informative and gives positive realistic expectations. I recommend Dr. Guttman to everyone I know and then some. You will have a very positive experience at his office, his staff is great and the hygienists do wonderful work!

I recently had a root canal done by Dr. Guttman and, having had several in the past by other dentists, I have to say I'm completely satisfied by the quality of work - both inside my mouth and through the whole support and follow-through process. In the chair I was at ease before the work even started!

I went to Dr. G to have some previous work fixed up and was immediately put at ease. He is calm, honest, and matter-of-fact without being pessimistic or critical. He is very friendly and approachable but still a professional - bringing a very welcoming vibe to the office. The office staff - Paula and Debbie - are amazing. They're what brought me into the office and now Dr. G's attitude and approach actually make me WANT to come back and get all of my dental issues resolved!

Dr. Guttman is new to me, as he took over a dental practice I have been going to for years. I like the little touches, like text and email reminders for appointments. It's a small office with a friendly relaxed feel, but they sure know what they are doing.

I was reluctant to change dentists, so the same day I found out some bad news, I made an appointment at the new Playa Del Rey. The receptionist was very accommodating with my schedule. She even called to confirm my appointment a couple a days ahead, and when I showed up early for it, they were able to bump up my appointment! How fantastic is that?

All in all, it is great to see Dr. Guttman move on to a more exceptional dental office.

Dr. Guttman was new to me, as he took over a Dental practice I have been going to for almost 20 years. I have been lucky enough not to need much dental work. Mostly cleanings until recently. I have to say, I didn't know what to expect- Dr. Guttman was great! Very gentle and caring and explained what he was doing before he did it. That made me very easy. I really liked his gentle nature and caring attitude.

Would recommend Dr. Guttman for anything. Great staff.
