AMAZING experience from start to finish!! From the moment I called to ask questions and book my appointment, the staff was extremely helpful, personable and professional. Their intake forms are all submitted to you via email in advance so that you can complete them in your own time and safely (avoiding unnecessary paper handling due to COVID-19). I was also emailed and texted reminders and parking instructions beforehand! Upon entering the office, I was warmly greeted and the receptionist took care of me quickly. I was given a tour of the facility and instructed on how to follow all COVID safety measures. Each patient’s space has a massage dental chair and a TV with various streaming platforms to watch your favorite programs while you wait to be seen. The technology they use for x-rays, imaging and dental photos is high-end and high definition. You can view all of the appropriate dental images on the TV in front of you which is very convenient too!Dr. Howard was very friendly, honest and knowledgeable about what exactly was necessary for my teeth. I’ll admit that it had been a longggg time since I’ve been to the dentist, but Dr. Howard did not judge or criticize me at all. He and the dental hygienist, Brittany - were very kind, gentle, speedy, thorough and transparent about what was needed. They made sure my insurance went through, gave me an estimate of future work that needed to be done and scheduled me for my next cleaning.I would highly recommend The Dental Office of Encino to any and everyone!! They are safe, friendly and fun! More
I'm so glad I found Dr Alan Howard and his son Dr. Yonatan Howard. Both are excellent dentists, warm, friendly, knowledgeable and highly competent. Their office has the latest state of the art dental technology, including 3-D imagery, which is important to me. I was referred to them by Millennium Dental Technologies in Cerritos, which did my laser gum surgery and trained their office in the fantastic LANAP procedure. I have a lot of bone loss from previous gum disease, and come by every three months for cleaning, and I've been more than thrilled at every level. The entire staff is lovely, fun and welcoming. Highly recommended! More

I have been coming to dr Alan howard since I was a child. Now I see him and his son, I feel as though they are family. They have so much passion for dentistry, and the office has technology that you only read about. They just acquired a cone beam 3d X-ray unit which allows them to place implants without cutting into the tissue! Everything is done virtually on computer to prevent complications. Most of all they gave me a beautiful smile and truly care about me. I have referred friends and family and everyone loves them!!!!!! More
A damn good dental experience all around. The staff is very competent and friendly. They have new dental equipment, video cams, digital x-rays, not to mention the treatments rooms all have massage chairs and tv with cable you get to control. Dr Yonaton is bad ass. He filled a cavity and repaired a botched root canal filling in about 20 minutes on me, maybe less and he did a great job of it, no pain or rough edges. Amazing! More
