I graduated from Michigan State University in 1975 with a Bachelor of Science degree, and from the University of Detroit School of Dentistry in 1980. I then went on to complete a General Practice Residency at the Sepulveda VA Medical Center. I had a long-time practice in Montebello before deciding to relocate to beautiful Playa Del Rey to be closer to home. I am a member of the American Dental Association, the California Dental Association, and the Los Angeles Dental Association. I was born in Detroit, Michigan and moved to California in 1980. I am happily married with a beautiful daughter. My hobbies include photography, roller blading and working out. I also enjoy watching college football and basketball.

Best dentist I have ever had. I'm always comfortable, they are exceedingly accommodating and they do great work. Most of all they don't push unnecessary procedures like a lot of other dentists in LA. I would recommend them very highly.

I would definitely recommend this dental practice to all of my friends, everyone was so sweet and helpful! I've never felt so cared for at a doctor's office until now, thanks to Gabby, Rose and Dr. Guttman himself. In the past I visited a few other dentists around Los Angeles and Santa Monica, and had rather negative experiences of them trying to sell me stuff, "finding" things to make me sign up for more procedures, and even once leaving me unsupervised with a bunch of tools in my mouth for a long period of time that burnt my gums. So my expectations were not high at all, but Dr. Guttman and his staff made my visit very enjoyable and easy, very pleased!

Dr.Guttman and his amazing staff are the best. ( Paula the receptionist is such a doll!) I'm terrified of the dentist, and actually found them by searching "Dental Chicken"! On Yelp! They have worked with me to get some serious dental issue fixed. I now go once every 4 months for a cleaning (Debbie is the best!!) , and look forward to seeing them. A++ service and truly compassionate dentistry.

The woman who is the hygienist was amazing. She had been there 32 years but still showed the enthusiasm of someone new in their career. I was very impressed and my teeth are very clean.

Always excellent service. If you have dental fear issues, Dr. Gutman and his staff is very sensitive in regards to this - infinitely more so than any previous dentist I have gone to in the past. Very professional, excellent at appt reminders and Dr Gutman does not push / upsell additional procedures. Highly recommended. Excellent service and very friendly crew all around.
