Dr. Joseph P. Sciarra, DDS - General dentist in Woodland Hills, CA

During that time, I have had the privilege of providing dental care to thousands of the finest children to be found anywhere. As a Pediatric Dentist, I feel strongly about the importance and advantages of introducing kids to their dentist at a very young age. Youngsters that begin their dental visits around age two will learn to accept dental care more readily and with less apprehension. By starting children so young, many dental problems can also be prevented by early intervention.

Love this place! Staff is super nice and friendly. I have been going since 2020. Really a place you can trust with your smile. They do all the regular stuff, but as a bonus they do teeth whitening and it really works. Everyone comments on how nice and white my teeth are. Insurance didn't cover the whitening, but it was worth every single penny. Highly recommended!

I can't believe this guy is still in business! I went to him when I was really young and he was mean and did not have patience for children! I was terrified of going to the dentist, I would have anxiety and nightmares leading up to my appointments. My parents switched to another dentist when I was around 10 years old and I learned that going to the dentist does not need to be scary. Now, being 35 years old, I love going to the dentist. But the nightmares that he caused during my young childhood are always in the back of my mind.

I've been seeing Dr. Sciarra for years! He put my braces on and I was very pleased with the experience and how my teeth turned out. My husband also had his braces done at Dr. Sciarra's office. The staff is so friendly and have always worked with our schedule. They even make personal phone calls to confirm appointments. Dr. Sciarra understands that people are anxious to go to the dentist and he takes measures to make you feel more comfortable and less anxious. The office is very kid friendly- with cartoons playing and arcade machines, kids can have fun at the dentist. I highly recommend!

Dr. Sciarra is far from professional is my experience. Everything was fine until the actual exam. My son is three. He had been to one other dentist and was happy and outgoing. When he sat down in the chair to be examined, Dr. sciarra did NOT introduce himself to my son (which every other dentist does). Instead, he sat behind my son and proceeded to pull him by the shoulders up in the chair. My son's foot almost got stuck in the arm rest but I quickly moved his foot so it wasn't caught. However, because he decided to grab my son and pull on him without any warning, my son started crying. Dr. sciarra immediately said he could not clean my son's teeth unless he gave my son full sedation which would cost $300 upfront just to reserve the appointment. I believe his scare tactic was on purpose. Even if it wasn't on purpose, the damage is done. My son is now terrified of any new dentist (but luckily my new dentist was so kind he actually introduced himself and we were able to get a cleaning done in the first visit WITHOUT sedation though he was still in tears because of his previous experience). Dr. sciarra also weighed him on the scale and said he was 10 pounds lighter than he actually does weigh (faulty equipment?) And then said "does that sound right to you, mom?" Excuse me, but I have a name and I am not YOUR mom. I will never return here. My insurance was the whole reason I went here but I am sad that my son is now traumatized because of this doctor's rude actions. Please be aware. I am not paying out of pocket for a much better dentist.

Dr. Sciarra is the best thing that happened to myself and daughter. My daughter was so nervous of seeing a dentist and Dr. Sciarra made her feel calmed and was able to get all dental work done. He is amazing. My daughter will be seeing him till she has teeth to fix.

Our family has been going to Dr. Joe for 6 years now. I feel so lucky to have found such a great pediatric dentist! Between the knowledge and experience, we are in very capable hands. Dr. Joe is great and his staff definitely follows suit. I would highly recommend this office to any and all - and I have!!

Sadly, the days of visiting your friendly local dental office are over. This office could care less about customer service. This front office woman is the scariest thing since Freddy Krueger! Just mean and angry. I think the dental assistant lives in the office because we were early morning appointments and he was in the bathroom for 5 mins, then came out washed his face and was brushing his teeth at the front desk! All while we sat and waited. My 8yr old was mortified! When there are offices EVERYWHERE- maybe try a little harder.
