Ray Klein DDS is a pediatric dentist who is passionate about working with children and their parents on the prevention of cavities and dental education. Dr. Ray specializes in putting patients and parents at ease with his warm, funny personality. His goal is Total Tooth Decay Decimation! but hes happy making sure all of his patients know how to care for their teeth and make good decisions about what they eat and drink.
Before he found his way to safeguarding teeth Dr. Ray completed his undergraduate studies in film at USC, worked in movie and TV production for several years before returning to his alma mater for his dental degree. Sometime between making his fourth and fifth set of dentures, he realized that he wanted to help children exclusively. And so, after two additional years of pediatric training at USC, including a residency at Miller Childrens Hospital, Ray became Dr. Ray, an amazing, board-certified pediatric dentist!
In his personal time, in addition to being a great dad, Dr. Ray can be found cooking his latest find from the local farmers market. Always in search of adventure he loves exploring remote parts of Peruhis wifes birthplace and an opportunity to practice his fluent Spanish. He still loves watching moviesincluding the latest kids movies (he calls it research).

I usually don't review places unless they are exceptional and that is what I found at this dentist office, exceptional service! I took in my almost 2 year old because he had a fall and broke his top middle tooth right down the middle; I had taken him to a different dental office but my instinct told me not to go back. From the moment I got there I felt welcomed and most importantly they welcomed my toddler which is everything to me! Once in the exam room, Delia our nurse was A-MA-ZING!! She not only made me feel at ease but she was such a pro with my toddler. My toddler had his tooth taken out and everyone in the office made us feel better about the situation. Thank you Dr. Ray for the great service, you are not only great with kids but you are also great at your craft. Lastly, I want to say that the care they take goes above and beyond what I have ever experienced from a dentist office, that same day I received a call from Delia to check on my toddler! Highly recommend this dental office especially if you have a toddler!!

Amazing place. Exceptional service at every step from booking an appointment to walking out of doctors office. Very nice and clean office and everyone is friendly and helpful. Dr.Ray is very knowledgeable and professional. It's unbelievable but my 2 year old let them examine her and do the cleaning, didn't cry once. We're impressed!

This was our first time with Dr. Ray and had the best experience. From check in up to the end of the appointment everything was convenient and professional. The Doctor and nurse went over everything with my daughters and the staff was so nice and friendly.

There's no doubt why this place has such excellent reviews. I needed to get an appointment pretty quick for my sons school. When I originally called their schedule was pretty booked and they didn't have availability that would meet my deadline. The woman took down my information and said she would call me if they had any availability open up. Within hours she reached out saying they had an opening come up for the next day! Dr Klein and his entire staff was amazing. This was my sons first dental visit and they made him feel extremely comfortable. All of the little details like Netflix streaming and stickers/toy after the visit made the experience fun. My son left saying "i love going to the dentist". We will definitely be coming back. My only comment to others is that the Parking is tricky. The lot is "pay by phone" and without cell service, you can't pay and the parking management doesn't answer their phone. The staff at Dr. Kleins office was very helpful because they know the parking situation can be problematic.

Dr Ray and his staff make everyone feel so welcome! My 3 year old daughter loves going to see him, and I have to say so do I. It's truly a pleasant and family friendly experience. Don't believe me? Try for yourself. Highly recommend!

I enjoyed taking my son to his first dental appointment. He is 21 months and was more cooperative than I thought he would be. He enjoyed watching his show on the tv and let Dr. Ray look at his teeth and allowed the hygienist to brush and even use the electric polisher for fun. Can't wait to see you all on our next visit in 6 months. Thank you Dr. Ray and staff!!

This was our first visit for my 18 month old son. I was totally convinced he would cry throughout, but it could not have been more the opposite. The staff are amazing and MAGIC with little ones. He actually have fun! Couldn't recommend it more.

First time at the office and everyone was wonderful! Office staff worked hard to fit my three kids in with cancellation list. Dr Ray spent so much time explaining things and everyone was patient with my anxious older boy. Great experience!

Dr. Ray is amazing and so is his staff. It was our son's first dental visit and it couldn't have gone any smoother. I would recommend Dr. Ray to any parent and have done so to family and friends. You can tell Dr. Ray really enjoys what he does. My son went from almost crying before walking into the office to feeling comfortable and hugging Dr. Ray multiple times. Thank you Silicon Beach Pediatric Dental. We'll see you in 6 months.
