Patient Review 1:

Before Dr. Nolan, regular teeth cleanings and dental procedures were a nightmare. I avoided going to the dentist at all for many years until I read about Dr. Nolan. Dealing with Dr. Nolan and Debbie makes it so much easier to keep my teeth clean and healthy. Together with the receptionist Paula they create a family-like atmosphere that puts you at ease and takes away anxieties. You are always kept informed about Dr. Nolan's schedule and whether you should come in later than the scheduled time if he is running late or can come in earlier if someone cancels. For an emergency repair, I can always an appointment right away.Dr. Nolan and Debbie are always sensitive to my needs during procedures and are always careful to make sure there is no pain, that I have a blanket if I am cold or whatever else I need to make me as comfortable as possible. Everything about his office is up-to-date from the digital x-ray photos to the internet in the waiting room. He is always great about explaining what needs to be done and how long it will take so you always feel like you are in control of what is going on when your teeth are being worked on. I have always highly recommended Dr. Nolan to my friends and family.

Patient Review 3:

No one likes to go to the dentist, at least I didn't 10 years ago. I hadn't been to a dentist in over 25 years and my teeth were a mess. I found myself keeping my mouth closed while I was smiling due to a gap in my front teeth and a chipped tooth and this was just my cosmetic problems. My first appointment I was told what could be done to correct my years of neglect. Dr. Nolan prescribed some medication to treat my gums, worked on cavities and proposed a plan of veneers to give me the smile I had been missing for so long. Dr. Nolan is a perfectionist and expects the same from his staff, this is all to the benefit of the patient. I could not be happier with my results and now make regular appointments for cleaning and checkups. I almost forgot to mention the pain, that's because during all of my treatments I did not experience any pain. The staff is constantly checking with you to keep you relaxed and informed of all of your treatments. I would highly recommend Dr. Nolan to anyone.
About Hygienist: Since I began seeing Dr. Nolan I have been going for regular cleanings. While I have improved on my brushing and flossing I am one of those people who get a lot of calciuim buildup. Dr. Nolan's hygienist, Danuta is very good at getting rid of my buildup, leaving me with clean, wonderful feeling teeth again without any pain. Danuta and the entire staff are extremely nice and well mannered.

Patient Review 4:

If you are in need of a terrific dentist...look no further! Dr. Robert Nolan is a fantastic dentist. He truly caters to those who are "dental chickens". I should know - I am about as big a dental chicken as they come. However, when I walk into the office of Dr Nolan, I no longer panic - I know I'm in good hands. He really cares and takes the time to let you know. He also has an amazing office staff - they help make the process so much better too! My latest experience would have sent me and most into a frenzy. It was late on a Friday night and I had a molar literally break in half in my mouth. I was in terrible pain. After phoning his office and being referred to an after-hours number (that is actually answered by him LIVE), he offered to meet me at the office right then and there. I opted to come in the next morning and he came in on his day off to take care of my emergency. That's the kind of dentist he is! The procedure went very smoothly and he was so very understanding of my fears and really helped to make me feel as comfortable as humanly possible. Whether you are looking for someone who caters to dental chickens or just a great dentist, Dr. Robert Nolan is your man - He is awesome!
About Hygienist: Debbie Westby is an exceptional hygienist. She is extremely gentle, thorough and caring. She makes the experience painless and you walk out feeling like you have an entire new set of chops.
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: 14 years.

Patient Review 5:

I had extensive dental work done under Dr. Nolan's sedation. I have to say the entire treatment was painless during and after my appointment. Dr. Nolan and his staff are friendly and helpful. I got the feeling that everyone, Paula and Debbie, as well as Dr. Nolan himself, really cared about me. I had been searching for a new dentist (mine had retired) and I am so glad I chose Dr. Nolan. I was surprised and delighted that he even gave me his cell phone number in case I had any questions or concerns. Dr. Nolan is truly a wonderful dentist and I highly recommend him.

Patient Review 7:

I went to doctor Nolan because no other dentist could get me numb. It was hard to find a dentist that would IV sedate and did general dentistry and oral surgery(implants) so I would only need to be sedated once. The whole process was very simple and explained very well. He kept me updated on what was happening as I had a lot of work done in one day. He emailed and called me after to make sure I was okay. They are open every other Saturday which is very convenient when you don't want to miss work, I traved 40 minutes to this dentist and it was worth it.
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: one month.

Patient Review 8:

Dr. Nolan deals with dental chickens (like myself) in a caring manner. The twilight sleep for extensive procedures is fairly expensive, but it is the only way to have extensive work performed. 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. Nolan 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 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.Paula runs the front office and takes care of the insurance submissions and appointment scheduling. If Dr. Nolan 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!In the waiting room, internet access and a TV are available, along with the varied assortment of magazines.
About Hygienist: Debbie is very personable and assists Dr. Nolan with any dental work that is needed. She has a great sense of humor.
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: 15 years.

I've been a patient for about 2 years, I was referred by someone when I moved to the Playa Del Rey area. Dr Nolan is first-class and has state-of-the-art equipment and procedures. He's also a straight shooter and won't BS you about anything. I'm glad I found him.

Patient Review 11:

If you have ANY dental fears DEFINITELY go see Dr. Nolan. 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.Enter Dr. Nolan.I had a terrible toothache and a friend of mine (who's also a dental chicken) recommend Dr. Nolan to me. I went to Dr. Nolan's office and was immediately put at ease. His staff is wonderful and I have to say, the work I had done (two teeth pulled, a root canal, and two fillings) was the most I ever had done at once and it was TOTALLY PAINLESS! I wouldn't lie to a fellow dental chicken, so if you're reading this please know it's true. Go see Dr. Nolan! This is the first time there's nothing wrong in my mouth. He fixed it all. I will keep him as my dentist for life and I think if you go see him you will too!
About Hygienist: Debbie is the Hygienist at Dr. Nolan's office. She's been with him for years. She was the first person I saw after Paula (who's also great!) took all my information. Dr. Nolan's work has made me a patient for life, but it was Debbie who made me feel at ease as soon as I met her. She's got a great relaxed way about her. She exudes confidence but is very approachable and very funny. It was Debbie who made me feel comfortable enough to climb into the chair so Dr. Nolan could work his magic. Thank you Debbie!

I was a nervous patient due to previous experience with other dentists. I therefore suffered from years of neglect. Dr. Nolan did a total mouth reconstruction. I was sedated and my nervousness was overcome. I now go to my appointments with Dr. Nolan without reservation.
About Hygienist: Debbie is the best. She and Dr. Nolan are a great team. She is very attentive and extremely competent. I was an extremely nervous patient at first but Debbie helped me get over my nervousness.

Patient Review 13:

I am scared of the dentist :( so I will only go to Dr Nolan. He is phenomenal with patients like me. Even though he isnt the cheapest I will only go to him. I have moved around a lot in the last 20 years so I have had a lot of experience with different doctors and dentists and I have never had a great dentist before Doctor N. Dr Nolans work on my mouth go wrong (and I met Dr Nolan when getting a low cost botched root canal fixed). This Doctor works very hard at being the best. He performs almost perfect procedures (and I'm a tough judge) and he is always growing and grooming his technique and educating himself to the current trends in dentistry. If you found Dr Nolan you are lucky! So Don't go cheap - IT'S YOUR MOUTH! Nobody will kiss that thing if it ain't fixed right...
About Hygienist: Dr Nolan's staff has to live by his mantra so they are also AWESOME and effective workers.
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: 4 Yrs..

I made a visit to Dr. Nolan after years of dental neglect. He and his team made quick, relatively painless work of a number of restorations, a crown and whitening. I've been going back ever since, the staff is great, friendly and knows you as an individual. Dr. Nolan knows the questions to ask to get to the bottom of any issues or pain you're having, knowing exactly what to do to solve the problem quickly, usually during the same visit. Saturday morning office hours rock! Highly reccommended for all.

Patient Review 16:

Dr. Nolan and I have been together for some time now and from day one he was the only one to listen to me. I have a fear of going to the dentist and have had some bad run-in with some of them. I am a big guy who hates pain in my mouth. When I told the other dentist that I was still in pain they blew me off, until I got up and told them that if they wanted to continue to hurt me I would have to return the favor. Dr. Noland has listened to me from day one and he is the only dentist that I have ever gone back to and told my family, friends, coworkers and yes even some of my enemies about.
About Hygienist: Not sure of the Hygienist, but she took time with me and made sure that I wasn't in any pain.

I have canceled more dental appointments that I have kept over my lifetime due to fear of the pain. A few years ago I started noticing signs that said "Dental Chickens". I was not in the least embarrased to recognize myself in that phrase and told my husband that I was going to call and see if Dr. Nolan would accept me as a patient. I was able to quickly see the doctor and was treated by all of the staff like a long-time friend. My dental care over the past three years has been absolutely amazing. Every person in the office is professional ank kind. Dr. Nolan is truly a wonderful dentist.

I have recently had 3 teeth break due to old silver fillings I got when I was a kid. I needed root canals and crowns. I was scared to death because of all the horror stories I had heard from other people, and having experienced some nightmare dentists in the past.Dr. Nolan is fantastic. I felt absolutely no anxiety, pain or discomfort during the procedures or afterward. I healed within days and haven't had any problems with any of the teeth he's fixed. Although he's a little on the expensive side with my current insurance plan, I don't mind paying a little more because I know I'm going to be taken care of. He does top-notch work and has a comforting & caring staff.

I brought my brother in because his teeth had suffered years of neglect. Dr. Nolan explained that there was extensive work to be done and would begin with the most critical. He wasted no time in starting the work and understood the cost contraints and worked within them. My brother John is extremely afraid of dentists but Dr. Nolan made him feel so comfortable that he fell asleep during his extractions and other dental work being performed. The most amazing part was that he managed to get all the work done in under 6 weeks including partials. My brother returned to Arizona feeling extremely happy about his dental appearance. I am forever grateful! When my bother returns for his next visit to California I will have him continue seeing Dr. Nolan to keep his teeth maintained.

I have been a patient of Dr Nolan's for ten years.

I husband and oldest son now are patients as well.

Patient Review 24:

When my family dentist retired from practice in 2002, I waitedthree years to go to another dentist - I was terrified. Where would I find another compassionate dentist who would understand my sensitive teeth and gums? Enter Dr. Robert Nolan. When he first treated me 5 years ago, I had two broken fillings holding my back molars together, a crown and another filling that needed to be replaced AND my teeth were cemented together with tartar. Dr. Nolan examined my teeth and gums thoroughly, took x-rays and gave me the good news - everything could be repaired and he would do that as painlessly as possible. Over the course of three weeks my teeth were repaired (3 crowns, 2 fillings and a little cosmetic dentistry to covera badly stained area on one tooth).I am so grateful to have found Dr. Nolan and highly recommend him. He and his staff reflect the best of dentistry:superb work and genuine consideration for the patient.
About Hygienist: Dr. Nolan's hygienist is lovely and efficient. She makes mefeel completely comfortable (gets my favorite pillow) andthen smoothly and painlessly cleans my teeth.When I return to Dr. Nolan's office for regular teeth cleaningand check ups, I know I am in the best of hands.

Patient Review 25:

I came to Dr. Nolan, because I woke up with my jaw and gums swollen from a tooth that needed a root canal that had a temp filling by another Dentist. It was obvious that it was infected and painful. Dr. Nolan gave me a appointment that morning, needless to say the tooth was damaged beyond saving, at that point the tooth had to be removed and a bridge made to replace the tooth. He prepped the teeth next to the removed tooth for the bridge that day. I came back in about a week later to get the bridge installed. No pain and after a little grinding to fit the bite. I haven't had any problems with the bridge since. That was 7 yrs ago. During this whole procedure the office staff had been taking care or all the insurance paper work. I don't remember doing any paper work beyond showing my insurance card. Dr Nolan and his staff were very caring and attentive to my dislike of pain. Since then he has replaced all my metallic fillings and also had to do a crown on another tooth. His office is alway clean, comfortable, and cool in the summer. The staff always have great chair side manner, Ihaven't had to wait more then a couple minutes after checking in at the front desk. I would highly recommend Dr. Nolan to friends and family. Thanks Doc.
About Hygienist: Dr Nolan's Hygienist have always been very caring, and efficient. Always asking if there is any pain or if I need a break from the procedure being done. She is another reason that I continue to come back to Dr. Nolan's office.

Patient Review 27:

I've been going to Dr. Nolan for over 8 years. The one thing I like is his understanding of when I say, "I have no tolerance for even a tingle of pain", that he takes extra care to insure I am pain free and happy. I neglected my teeth due to being so busy with work and a general distaste for dentists anyway. I regret it now, but I am so glad I found him because he saved my teeth and I have no fear of dentists any longer. He explains all needed procedures in an intelligent and informative way that I didn't fear the procedures I had. They also helped me maximize my insurance, which allowed me to continue to have all my procedures completed, as well as continue to indulge in my sushi habit.I like that he has the instant digital camera views of your teeth. He hides nothing from you and you truly get to see what your teeth look like and judge for yourself. I would definitely recommend Dr. Nolan for any patient who fears pain, By not going, all that smiling and chewing will be in vain.
About Hygienist: Debbie is the greatest. I love her fashion sense...scrubs matching her shoes and mask. The whole staff has a great sense of humor.

Dr. Nolan is by far the best dentist hands down. I am originally from Illinois and when I moved to California in 1991 I was very picky in choosing a dentist that would put me at ease and take care of me in the manner I needed and expected. Having broken my two front teeth when I was a child on a monkey bars I knew I needed a dentist to make me look good. And Dr. Nolan did! When he does front teeth crowns they stay for good. I am 62 years young thanks to Dr. Nolan.

Dr Nolan has done fine work on my teeth. Of course I waited too long to visit him. As a result I was forced to deal with 2 teeth which needed to be saved. Dr Nolan Did just that.I did not suffer any pain or anxiety once we started the work.Dr Nolan has been very patient with me. I have allways wanted to know what dentists are dooing in there. Dr Nolan seemed happy to explain what needed to be done.If I need more dental work done I have no poblem going back. I have already recomended him to a good friend.Dr Nolan is very good at using medicine to help his patients be more comfortable being worked on. If you feel anxious about dental work Dr Nolan is your man. No doubt about it.

I went to the office to deal with pain that turned out to be a root canal. Given my phobia for going to dentists, I selected Dr. Nolan because of his advertising along these lines. They definitely lived up to this and were most understanding of my "issues" and concerns. After positive results with the root canal, I have overcome my phobia so that I am able to return to their office regularly to have my teeth cleaned., with both the front office and the professional staff being very friendly, supportive and understanding....

Patient Review 31:

I can only say that I by far used to be the worst dental chicken there ever was! As far back as I remember back just thinking about going to the dentist gave me anxiety I absolutely hated it so much. Many times my prior dentists would send me home without even working on me because it was just hurting too much. I would only go when it was a complete emergency and then it ended on costing me an arm and a leg. After being referred to Dr. Nolan I can truly say that I for the first time in my life is completely at ease when I think about going to the dentist I can't even beleive it, and it is such a feeling of releif. When I come there I feel like family. Paula and Debbie that works with Dr. Nolan they are both so personable and makes you feel so comfortable. Dr. Nolan completely understands that I do not want to feel any pain and I can truly say that I don't. They are all awesome and I'm so excited that I now can have regular dental care and won't get to the emergency stage again. Thanks guys.

Patient Review 32:

After putting off going to the dentist for more years than I can remember, Dr Nolan and staff proved a great transition back into the way dental care should be for everyone- I can truely say its an anxiety free experience that is equivalent to getting a haircut. Everyone is very reassuring and pleasant explaining things in as much detail as you like or just letting you chill out while they take care of everything. Dr Nolan communicates a calm reassurance throughout the procedures and makes sure pain and anxiety aren't part of the process. I definitely give him the highest rating possible!

Patient Review 33:

I suffered severe oral trauma as a child in an accident and spent years dealing with dentists, operations, orthodontists, etc. My entire adult life has been spent avoiding the dentist at all costs. My crippling dental phobia prevented me from regular check ups and cleanings and the demise of my oral health was at large risk. I was getting so afraid that I was creating irrepairable damage that I forced myself to seek out treatment. That is when I found Dr. Nolan and his amazing staff. I have only just begun with Dr. Nolan and his team but I am truly thrilled to have finally discovered a practitioner who truly cares and understands my phobia and takes such amazing care of both myself and my spouse. It is still difficult to face appointments sometimes but I know that from the moment I arrive until the moment I leave I am truly in the best of hands. For anyone who suffers as I have from being a DENTAL CHICKEN, Dr. Nolan is truly the answer!!

Patient Review 34:

Right before I moved to New York, I was residing in California. I took the Christmas/ New Years deal in the newspapers that Dr. Nolan offered for a clean up of teeth by a dental hygienist.I must tell you that I had not cleaned my teeth in a long while because I never felt the need to - I had all my teeth cavities filled with amalgam and I never had bad breath. I just thought my lower teeth were yellow and I was feeling awkward about smiling without covering my mouth with my hands.So finally in January, I got an appointment with my coupon - I had paid very little for X-ray, checkup and cleaning/ hygiene for my teeth.The dental hygienist who worked on me did a great job - because my teeth changed color! I never knew the magic that dental hygienists could do, before that!Since after, I have decided to do my dental cleaning atleast 3-4 times a year (more than the recommended two times!)After my visit with the dental hygienist, Dr Nolan came in and patiently explained the X-rays to me. He told me what my teeth were lacking and asked me to get my fillings redone & most of them were cracked and leaking.I left for New York soon after - But I am going to Cali next month and I will get my appointment with Dr. Nolan's hygienist again!
About Hygienist: Exceptional hygienist - If she could make my yellow lower teeth shine - without causing me pain - she is nothing less than exceptional !
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: 6 months.

Patient Review 35:

I highly recommend Dr Nolan to anyone looking for a terrific dentist for all procedures from a simple filling to more elaborate cosmetic dentistry. I was the perfect example of a complete dental chicken - but have been cured due to the manner in which Dr. Nolan and his phenomenal staff perform. Before finding Dr Nolan, I would literally have anxiety attacks and cry just walking into a waiting room. Now I am able to walk in and know that I will be taken care of in the most gentle of ways. An added bonus is the staff that Dr Nolan employs. They are wonderful and add to the experience of going to a dentist without anxiety or fear. Dr Nolan is truly a terrific dentist and a caring man. He makes the entire dental experience worry free. So, if youre looking for a dentist who cares and takes the time to make sure you are comfortable, look no further Dr. Robert Nolan is the dentist for you!
About Hygienist: I can't speak highly enough about Debbie Westby. She is an amazing hygienist! Not only is she terrific at what she does, but she is wonderfully gentle and takes the fear out of dental procedures as well. Dr Nolan is a very lucky man to have Debbie in his practice. She is another big reason I am a happily content 12 year patient. Debbie is awesome!

Patient Review 36:

i am very ,very , happy with the crowns i had done on my upper six front teeth. Dr. Nolan was very professional, and to the point. He did not belittle me because i had not been to the dentist for many years. I am a physician and he treated me like a professional. I felt that the entire staff acted in a very professional manner from the minute i walked in to paying my bill. He took the necessary time needed to perform the procedures for my mouth.Another important item for me was that they did not make me wait. I highly recommend dr. nolan to anyone who needs dental work. He will treat you as a friend and answer all your questions . He even took time to stop during the procedure when i felt i needed a break for five minutes.

Patient Review 37:

I saw dr. nolan from a bus bench and went to him on an emergency. I called on sunday . To my surprise dr. nolan answered the telephone. Wow! I only go to the dentist when i have a toothache. I am a dental chicken.Dr. Nolan met me in three hours from my phone call in his office at 8 pm sunday night. He was real casual which i thought was really great. I could tell he was not a stuffy dentist. The office was real relaxed. Dr. Nolan got me out of pain and i felt great after i left. The next week i came back for x-rays and exam. He throughly reviewed everything. The dental assistant took digital x-rays and photos of the inside of my mouth. I needed a lot of work. I think my entire exam took over one hour. Funny thing, he did not leave the room the whole time. What a great experience. Everyone was so nice to me. They did not make me feel bad because my mouth was in bad condition. When i finally had the work done dr. nolan did three root canals and crowns on me & one veneer. He put me to sleep and i woke up and did not remember anything . I had all this work done and it did not hurt. The result was better than i expexcted. I now refer all my friends to him. So far, my friends have been happy. Kim H

To put it simply I would go nowhere else on this Earth for Dental Care other than Dr. Nolan and his Staff. I live over an hour away and he is my dentist. He has come in on an emergency basis to see me on short notice and on weekends. I will not go into my dental work I have had done because it is one of my biggest fears in life. He will do anything in his power to keep you comfortable and not stressed. If you need work done and you are freaked out about it this is your guy. The Staff is kind also and understands the needs of special patients.

I can't stress enough the excellent work that Dr. Nolan has done for me. Veneers, crowns, and more. I am a dental chicken due to horrific previous experiences, and came to him with major problems, which he dealt with quickly and professionally, attentive to my fears and always ensuring that pain was not an issue. I have moved quite a ways from Dr. Nolan, but still travel to his office, where I know I'll be treated well, with calm caring and good humor. I've brought family members to him, and they now swear by him as well. Folks, you'd have to know me to know how unlikely it is for me to get on a website to recommend a dentist, but here I am. I recommend Dr. Nolan with all my heart, and, of course, a gleaming smile. Thanks!

Patient Review 40:

From a real "fear of dentist" client. When I first went to see Dr. Nolan, I was ready to be knocked out and have anything done to relieve the pain I was in. I had been living on aspirin, etc. for the pain for years. The staff could not have been more helpful and patient. I needed 19 teeth pulled, had to get partial dentures, bridges and crowns. They worked with my insurance and helped us make payments for the out of pocket expenses.......if there had been a Dr. Nolan when I was a child I certainly would have not been a "dental chicken"!His staff is excellent and after a few visits, you really do feel like part of a family. I would certainly recommend him highly.

I have had very positive experiences working through all of my dental issues with Dr. Nolan. Having a mouth full of old work, we have slowly worked our way through all of the old crowns, fillings, and new issues. He has helped greatly in planning the best use of my insurance and my own funds. His equipment is state-of-the-art. Dr. Nolan is not only current in his technique, but he is also someone who can practice the "Art" of dentistry. He and his dental and office staff have created a funny, family atmosphere, complete with good-natured ribbing amongst themselves that puts you at ease (and after a few years of coming here, you get included!). It is an atmosphere where you can believe that you are always getting an honest appraisal of what needs to be done, and the best delivery of any solution to a dental problem.

He saved the day! My tooth aches were bothersome and nagging but I was sooo afraid to see any dentist due to a negative experience with a previous dentist. Dr. Nolan patiently explained how his services could help me and end my pain...he was right. I was sedated and I can honestly say that I would have no problem having another procedure done by Dr. Nolan. I very much appreciated how often he checked in before the procedure, during the office visit and afterwards. His office staff was kind, warm, and understanding of my fears.

Dr. Nolan has done everything from routine visits to fillings, root canal and crowns. Prior to my relationship with his office I was a casual caretaker of my teeth...now I get my 6 month cleanings done like clockwork. He and his office staff are delightful and are pleasantly persistent when you need to have work done or are due for your cleanings...with phone calls and emails as needed. As a healthcare worker myself I really appreciate the dedicated care his ENTIRE staff brings to the office. The casual but professional atmosphere of the office goes a long way to promote a compliant patient-doctor relationship.
About Hygienist: Debbie and Lorna are the best! Very gentle, but thorough. Kudos to Paula as well...great people skills!

Patient Review 47:

I met Dr. Nolan in 2005 and it was my first dental appointment in over 10 years. To say I was a dental chicken would be a gross understatement. It was only after exchanging numerous emails, many of which while he was on vacation, did I finally make one of the best decisions of my life. Dr. Nolan is extremely sensitive to a patient's needs and concerns and takes every conceivable step to ensure their comfort. He explains every procedure in detail, so there is never any doubt about your treatment. In my particular case, my procrastination took its toll and I paid the price. The dental chicken mantra "maybe it will go away" simply doesn't work.. Dr. Nolan restored my smile and my self-confidence. I have more treatments ahead of me, including transplants, but I no longer fear going to the dentist. Dr. Nolan and his entire staff are professional and dedicated individuals who give your care and comfort the highest priority. If you are a dental chicken, make an appointment with Dr. Nolan. You will find, as I did, that there is nothing to be afraid of. If you are looking for a compassionate and competent dentist, then I encourage you to call him.Oh, one more great benefit....no waiting!

I was having extreme dental pain. I called Dr Nolan and even trhough it was a scheduled time off for him. He came in on an emergency call for me! and saw me within hours of calling. I had always had bad experiences at my prior dentists offices and because of this I had neglected my teeth. His office staff was friendly and I was assured that he would take good care of me . I was frightened coming in., When I met Dr Nolan he was very nice and explained the problem I was having and we scheduled a time for me to have my procedure done.My procedure was completed and I am very glad that I chose him to do it . He has gone out of his way to call and check on my progress and to make adjustments when necessary . I am very pleased and would highly recommend his services.

Over the 25 plus years I have gone to Dr. Nolan, I have had crowns, cosmetic fillings, periodontic surgery and treatments, extraction of wisedom teeth and regular check ups. The doctor caters to "dental chickens" and if you are, he makes you very relax and trusting. The doctor and his staff are always very friendly, very professional and caring. The facilities are very cozy and warm....even the fish are great to watch....I don't have dental insurance any more but the prices are very reasonable and they are very accomodating.I would recommend Dr. Nolan to all my friends who are in need of good, friendly and very professional treatments.

I am not afraid to admit that I am a "Dental Chicken." The only reason why I even went to see Dr. Nolan so many years ago was the advertising that he did on the Bus Benches. I would only go when I had a problem. I took a chance and haven't regretted it since! Dr. Nolan convinced me that if I would come see him regularly, that I could avoid many of the Dental problems that I had had in previous years. It's been 24 years now! I've had fillings redone, one inlay and one root canal over the years. I am very difficult to sedate orally and the Dental Drill causes me a lot of stress. Dr. Nolan is very patient with me during the "numbing" process, and I appreciate that! He's the reason why I have a healthy mouth today! I highly recommend Dr. Robert Nolan, DDS!
About Hygienist: Debbie Westby is simply the best Dental Hygienist around and takes the best care of my mouth. She really "digs in there" to make sure that my teeth and gums are in tip-top shape. And that is most appreciated!

My younger brother introduced me to Dr. Nolan almost twenty years ago and I in turn introduced my late father-in-law and husband to his practice. I have always been very well served and pleased with all of the work I've had done at his practice...from fillings, root canals, cleanings etc. I'm more inclined to have the treatments because he knows exactly how to reduce my anxiety and eliminate pain! I am the definitive dental chicken!!!He works quickly and efficiently. His staff, Debbie and Paula are beyond reproach. They are professional, friendly and patient focused...which also reduces anxiety. I also enjoy the fact that I have access to the internet while I'm waiting and the office music is soothing and relaxing. Great office, successful treatments, wonderful staff and pleasant surroundings all contribute to my loyalty to Dr. Nolan. You will not be disappointed!!

I have been treated by dentists in Paris where I used to live and in New York and Houston but I think Dr Nolan is the best for anyone who is afraid of dentists and want to be cured well and fast.Besides the painless procedures which are very important for me,he is very professional ,uses top of the line equipment and never pushes you to do cosmetic work if you are not inclined to do it.He and his staff follow up with you after any intervention in a very personalised manner.

Patient Review 54:

i first went to dr nolan because i had a tooth ache. My friend referred me to him. I was very nervous, afraid and had not been to a dentist in 6 years. I live in Calabassas. It was a long trip,but was well worth it. I first came in i noticed that there was no one in the waiting room. Paula, the front desk person said they only book one patient at a time so the patents do not have to wait. I didnt even have to wait 5 minutes. that was great. Then i had these cool digital x-rays and photos of my mouth with a little camera. I saw it on a tv screen. Debbie was the person who took my x-rays. Then Dr. Nolan came in . He was pleasant and courteous. What most impressed my about him was that he was direct and did not lecture me about the bad condition of my mouth. iI needed lots of work , especially in the front of my mouth. Now a year later, my smile is beautiful due to Dr. Nolans expertise. I can now smile again. I forgot to mention that he sedated me. I had the work done in a couple of visits and the best part was i was asleep. I did not remember anything. I would highly recommend him. I keep coming back and i live far away. Now i just come for cleanings.
About Hygienist: Lorna who does my cleanings is very efficient and she does not hurt me. All the cleanings are pain free.

Before seeing Dr Nolan I was truly a dental chicken, having had numerous bad experiences with dentists and being extremely intolerant of pain.Unfortunately, I broke the root of a front tooth and needed a new tooth to be made and implanted. With Dr. Nolan's guidance, I made my way through the process painlessly and stress free. Also, he made sure the tooth color matched perfectly before he would accept it.Dr Nolan is confident and calming and has a way of making you feel at ease. I no longer associate going to the dentist with pain.Also, his office staff is amazing. They are like family, and Paula is so good at reminding me when it is time for a cleaning. Its so easy to forget about those important things when you are busy.I would recommend Dr Nolan to ANYONE needing anything from a simple cleaning to major dental work.

Dr. Nolan and his staff are friendly, fun and attentive to their clients needs. The office is relatively small which makes for a relaxing environment to get dental work done. While the facility appears modest upon driving into the small coastal retail center, the technology Dr. Nolan has equipped his office is second to none. This technology allows for quick and efficient diagnostic and allows me and the doctor to see more easily what is happening in my mouth. Additionally, I have found Dr. Nolan to be a true practitioner of his trade. When I had a problem with a filling, he took extra time to diagnose and solve the problem.Regards,S. Rosenberg

I like the small touches: the aquarium and comfortable chairs in the waiting room (although I've never had long to wait), the modern equipment like the small in-mouth digital camera so I can see my teeth the way he sees my teeth, and the clean facilities. Most important is the high quality of work he has performed, exhibiting the same attention to detail. The front desk support was always superb, with a follow-up call after a procedure (in my case crowns and fillings) being the norm. Dr. Nolan will tell you what you need to know about procedures and insurance to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
About Hygienist: The thing that impresses me about the hygienists is the fact that I've been going to Dr. Nolan for over 4 years and the staff has been the same, pleasent, highly qualified folks all along. And I am comfortable knowing from their work and background that they are very experienced, too.
Treatment Length with Dr. Nolan: 4 years.

Patient Review 61:

i first went to dr. nolan from a ad i saw in the local newspaper. I was very nervous but decided to give it a try. The first person i met was Paula , inthe front , who was nice. Debbie who took my x-rays was really nice and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Nolan suggested i go to sleep for the dental work. It was the best visit i have ever had. He did in two appointments all my teeth in the front upper. My smile now is really great. It was expensive but i now smile all the time. The other dentists i visited before him did not make me feel comfortable. He told me the truth and did not beat around the bush. He was straight forward and told me eveything before any work was started. Three years later i am still coming to see him. I now just go for cleaning every four month.. I would never go to any one else.

Patient Review 62:

When I went to Dr. Nolan I was in a great deal of pain. I needed some work done immediately, but was very fearful. Dr. Nolan and his staff did an excellent job of putting me at ease. I have never felt so comfortable in a Dentist's office before. I felt so good about the work he did for that first emergency procedure, that I ended up having him fix all the teeth that needed repair due to many long years of neglect. I also appreciated the fact that Dr. Nolan would perform all of this work in relatively few appointments. With my busy schedule, that was a great option for me.Now, because of my comfort level with Dr. Nolan, I go in regularly for cleanings and check-ups. I spent nearly 20 years in pain from neglecting my teeth, and now I couldn't be more pleased with how I feel. Thank you Dr. Nolan!Sincerely,D. Cannariato, Esq.
About Hygienist: Debbie is wonderfully reassuring and a very calm presence. I enjoy coming in and talking with her. She and Dr. Nolan work very well together.

Patient Review 63:

I've been seeing Dr. Nolan for well over 20 years. My smile used to be horrible and Dr. Nolan changed all that. I have several crowns, in fact, all my front teeth are the work of Dr. Nolan. I have been told by many, many people that my smile is awesome. Dr. Nolan and his staff, especially Debbie Westby are very courteous, professional and always make me feel right at home. I would never even think about seeing another dentist. I used to be a dental chicken and the mere thought of going to the dentist caused me much grief. Upon my first visit with Dr. Nolan and his wonderful staff, all that changed. I will soon be seeing Dr. Nolan and his trained staff to have a front tooth replaced with an implant. I highly recommend Dr. Nolan and his staff. Sincerely,Donald R. Notman
About Hygienist: Debbie Westby is by far the best hygienist ever. She is very thorough and always puts me at ease. Her mannerism, gentle touch is most welcome. I can't say enough about Dr. Nolan and Debbie Westby. What a great team. I highly recommend everyone stop by their office. They will put you at ease and provide the best care possible.

Doctor Nolan is very professional but not stuffy and boring. He not only is a great dentist but a likeable gent as well. His staff is very good and probably more experienced than any other.I've had everything done from pulling wisdom teeth to fillings and routine maintinence. I do refer others without hesitation.

Patient Review 65:

Like many dental patients, i delayed going to see the dentist. Partly due to fear of pain, i was referred by many friends to Dr. Robert Nolan. Not only is he highly professional, but also genuinely concerned about your health. The first thing Dr. Nolan did was put me on Periostat, to prevent me from getting the gum disease,gingivitis. After stressing the importance of proper dental care and regular visits, my gums are fine. He also put in 2 crowns, with complete success and was willing to work with me financially. If you are in need of a great dentist, along with a fantastic staff, i highly recommend Dr. Robert Nolan.
About Hygienist: Debbie, the hygienist is very thorough and professional. She has the touch of a gentle angel, and is very easy to talk to about any of your dental concerns. Her compassion and over 20 years of experience is a definite winning combination.

I have been a very happy patient of Dr. Nolan's for years. He's helped me with everything from teeth whitening to a snore guard. His staff is very friendly and professional. Dr. Nolan is very knowledgeable and puts his customers at ease. I am completely satisfied with the quality of my dental care and wouldn't consider going to another Dentist in L.A..
About Hygienist: I have dreaded getting my teeth cleaned at other dental offices, but the staff at Dr. Nolan's office do everything in their power to create as little discomfort as possible, while creating a very relaxing atmosphere.

Dr. Nolan has treated this dental chicken for four years. I have had numerous root canals, three gum surgeries, three extractions, three bridges, many crowns, etc. etc. Due to a previous dentist's inefficiences, I basically had to have my entire mouth re-done. Dr. N. is a genius with not causing you any pain and being a perfectionist with his work. His staff, Paula and Debbie are incredible, caring individuals. I couldn't trust three people more. I know longer fear the dentist. Dr. N has changed my entire outlook on going to the dentist. My teeth and now healthy, strong and beautiful

Patient Review 68:

Although i was not a chicken, I had ignored my teeth for over 5 years and knew I was facing serious consequences. I gave in and made an appointment for a checkup. Paula was so nice when I called to make an appointment, and when I arrived in the office she made me feel so comfortable. After the initial consultation, I was told I had to have 9 fillings removed and replaced. Dr. Nolan and his staff made me feel safe and comfortable about proceeding with the treatment. My next appointment was very intense. I have terrible allergies, so it is very hard for me to breathe through my nose. I was very nervous about having my mouth blocked, but Dr. Nolan and the staff adjusted their procedures to ensure that I was comfortable and able to breathe. When we were half way through, I asked if we could go ahead and finish (I knew I would not return to complete treatment). Dr. Nolan rearranged his schedule to accommodate my request. Because Dr. Nolan and his staff were so kind and considerate, I continued the treatment plan. In addition to the professionalism and personal service, Dr. Nolan's staff is great in dealing with insurance. I highly recommend Dr. Nolan for dental treatment.

I went to Dr Nolan for an emergency crown for a broken molar. He was effiecent and competant. the procedure went really well, It was basically painless. His attitude and those of his assistants relaxed me and made it as easy on me as possible to endure the ordeal. I have and will continue to refer him as he has a gentle touch and a great chairside manner.

Dr. Nolan has been my dentist for nearly 25 years. I would not have stayed that long if he had not been the very best! His staff is super, too.In that long time period, every treatment (fillings, crowns, extractions, etc.) has been pain free and successful. I would...and have...recommend this dentist to others.

i had gone to dr. nolan from a bus stop bench. i ws very nervous when i went to him. Debbie who took my xrays made me feel comfortable. Seeing the xrays on the tv screen was amazing. I had been to several others dentists in marina del rey and always had poor service. They took me in right away. I did not have to wait at all. Dr, Nolan put me to sleep and did four crowns on me and an extration. I did not feel anything. I had my crowns for my front teeth done about five years ago. They did a really good job i love my smile now. Oh yes, he is very straightforward but honest. i now just go for regular cleanings. Paula , th front desk person calls me to remind me for my cleanings. I keep going back because the office treats me very nicely .

I had a number of procedures done in Dr. Nolan's office, namely dental implants, extraction, replacement fillings, cleanings and crowns. Some of the work was done under sedation and during all scheduled work, there was always great attention to my comfort and to ensure i was not in pain. The overall experience was great ad I would definitely recommend new patients to go to Dr. Nolan's office for their dental needs.

Dr. Nolan is unique in that when you arrive on time for your appointment, he is also on time...wait time maximum 3 minutes.He also makes long appointments so that a procedure can be completed in one visit, very convenient. His digital X-Rays displayed on a video screen can be enlarged 100x for both his diagnosis and the patients understanding. Highly recommended for those seeking expertise with efficiency. All his staff have been with him at least ten years, this adds to his consistent high level of service. Also accepts insurance.

I avoided dentists for many years because I didn't like them, but I went to Dr. Nolan after a filling fell out, and he's taken care of me ever since. Now I go to his office regularly, and my gums are much healthier.He's very accommodating, sensitive, and caring, He checks on how I'm feeling and makes sure I'm not in any pain. He lets me come early on Saturday, which I like best.Everybody in his office is really nice too. It seems like they have fun together and all get along well. It's a pleasant atmosphere.

I saw Dr Nolan initially for some major dental work, which he did to my complete satisfaction. I had tried many others before I discovered this practice and Dr Nolan and his staff undoubtedly are the best, especially at putting you at ease and making the visit as pleasant, relaxing and painless as possible. At the same time his manner is direct and to the point, which I personally appreciate. The highest recommendation I can give him are my return visits.

For 20 years I've been seeing Dr. Nolan and do fall under the category of being a Dental Chicken. I was always very nervous going to see my prior dentist. Dr. Nolan eliminated those fears in my first visit. His approach, bed side manner, professionalism and pain free procedures are unbelievable! When you visit Dr. Nolan's office you'll experience not only excellent customer service but you'll leave knowing that Dr. Nolan and his staff really care! I live in Orange County; I drive 1 1/2 hours one way to Playa Del Rey. His staff always calls the next day to see how you are feeling. When you're a Dental Chicken like me there's only one Dentist to see, Dr. Nolan!

Yes, I went to see the dentist that advertises all over the city on bus bench ads. Yes, he's the "we cater to dental chickens" guy. And you know what? He's an outstanding dentist.Just because he markets himself on bus ads doesn't take away from the fact that he's a skilled dentist with a friendly staff. They're always on time with appointments, they respect your time and possible phobias, and can work with absolutely anyone's fear and pain management. Dr. Nolan's bedside manner is refreshingly candid. He doesn't waste time with goofy fake charisma or treacly mannerisms. He'll tell you what needs to be done, and why, and you can make your own informed decisions. I appreciate his straightforwardness, such as when he says, "I'm not going to tell you to floss more because you know that already." He's not being coy, he's being honest. He also doesn't give a toss what toothbrush you use, as long as you're flossing.And he's right. We should all floss more.
About Hygienist: Paula, who runs Dr. Nolan's front desk, is exceptionally gregarious and remembers all the patients. Debbie and the rest of his staff are all professional and extremely skilled at everything from cleanings to assisting in fillings and the rest. My teeth are exceptionally clean afterwards.

I didnt want to waste time and needed a tooth pulled or fixed right then. Dr. Nolan made me feel comfortable and peformed the work within an hour. Although he wasnt cheap, the office was clean and the staff very personable. I thank him for the good service and would reccommend him to anyone in the south bay or marina.

I don't like going to the dentist. I have had dental work on almost every tooth. That was due to my lack of care when I was wearing braces as a youth. For somebody who doesn't like going to the dentist, Dr. Nolan makes it as comfortable as possible. One of the visits I opted for sedation to fill several cavities and 2 hours later I was home and never felt a thing. I have been to several dentists in my life and many of them try to push services or try to convince you that you have phantom cavities (ones that don't exist). Dr. Nolan is not of those dentists. I have booked well over 150 hours in a dental chair in the past 10-15 yrs. Not the funnest thing to do in the world, but Dr. Nolan makes it as painless as possible.

I have to admit that, like most people, I do not like going to the Dentist office.... until I met Dr Nolan. My initial consultation with Dr Nolan lasted over an hour. He was very patient in what my needs were and listened to all my concerns. Dr Nolan is very complete in his approach and explained everything thoroughly in a manner that left me feeling at ease. After deciding to go through the process of dental work with Dr Nolan, I did so with no regrets whatsoever. He contacted me to make sure I felt better, checked to see if I needed anything and even left me his cell phone number. I could not be more pleased with the experience with Dr Nolan and his staff. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a great dentist!
