“Recently completed an esthetic composite transformation with Dr. Lu and I am genuinely blown away by the level of precision and artistry involved. It is rare to find a clinician with such a meticulous eye; Dr. Benjamin Lu spent a significant amount of time perfecting the microscopic details to ensure my results were nothing short of seamless.
What truly impressed me, however, was how comfortable the entire journey was. Dental work can often feel clinical or rushed, but this office has mastered the patient experience. From the calming atmosphere of the clinic TVs to the genuine warmth of the staff, I felt completely at ease in the chair. Every team member is attentive, professional, and clearly dedicated to patient care.
If you are looking for a dentist who is a perfectionist regarding their craft—but also prioritizes your comfort and peace of mind—this is the place. I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience or my new smile”

“I recently completed esthetic composite work with Dr. Lu and the results are truly transformative. What sets this practice apart is the incredible eye for detail; he took the time to ensure the shape, shade, and contour of the composites looked completely natural and seamless.
Beyond the clinical excellence, the entire experience was stress-free. The office environment is welcoming, and the team is professional, kind, and highly organized. I always felt informed and comfortable throughout the process. If you are looking for a dentist who treats dentistry like an art form, I cannot recommend this office enough.”

If you are looking for a dentist who views their work as an art rather than a procedure, Dr. Benjamin Lu is the only choice. I came to him for a cosmetic work, and the level of precision was astounding. From the initial digital scans to the final reveal, the experience felt bespoke and high-touch. My results are stunningly natural, and I have total confidence in my smile.

The standard of care at Dr. Lu’s office is unparalleled, feels more like a private lounge than a dental clinic. He utilizes the most advanced technology I’ve seen in the field. We're currently going through my implant process which has been completely seamless and painless. For those who value their time and want a sophisticated, efficient, and white-glove experience, this is the practice. You get absolute excellence.

Dr. Benjamin Lu provides a level of clinical expertise that is rare. He is incredibly thorough, explaining the 'why' behind premium treatment options without any pressure. There is a palpable sense of calm and professionalism in his office that immediately puts you at ease. When it comes to your health and appearance, you shouldn't settle for 'standard.' Dr. Lu brings much more than that.

This was a very pleasant experience. I usually hate going to the dentist, but Dr. Lu was very friendly & made me feel calm. It was very busy, but I was seen in a fair amount of time and got my appointment done quickly.

I was impressed the moment I entered. His pts represented a diverse range of socioeconomic backgrounds, age groups, and racial/ethnic identities, which speaks to the office's ability to serve the local community. While waiting, I observed staff communicating in multiple languages and helping pts with scheduling appts, making referrals, and explaining insurance changes with compassion and clarity. This office’s pre-screening was the most comprehensive I've had; Dr. Lu was exceptionally thorough, addressing each of my concerns with care and professionalism. As a new pt, I appreciated how knowledgeable, transparent, and patient the entire team was. Everyone took the time to clearly explain their process, address specific dental issues, and detailed what was covered by insurance. They even accommodated me for my cavity fillings right after my cleaning. I also got a referral to an oral surgeon to address my questions about wisdom tooth removal. Overall, I'd highly recommend this office.
July 22, 2025Kevin N.Verified patient
Needed a dental implant and decided on Lu Dental for their guided implant technique—and wow, I’m so glad I came here. Dr. Benjamin Lu used digital planning and a surgical guide for my procedure, and it was the most efficient and painless dental experience I’ve ever had. The implant fit perfectly and Dr. Lu even challenged me to look for a drop of blood anywhere at the end of my surgery to which I didn't! Plus, the entire process was clearly explained with visuals. Highly professional, highly tech-savvy. 5 stars across the board!
July 20, 2025Barron L.Verified patient
As someone in the creative design field, aesthetics matter—and Lu Dental absolutely delivered. I had bioclear treatment done to even out a few front teeth and the difference is subtle but powerful. Dr. Lu has a great eye for symmetry and proportion. Shuang the hygienist also gave me the most gentle and thorough cleaning I’ve ever had. The whole office feels calming and curated. I left feeling cared for and confident.
July 18, 2025Sam Z.Verified patient
Dr. Lu guided me through my Invisalign treatment after I forgot to wear my retainer for a couple years and later addressed some worn-down teeth with white matched restorations. The entire process was seamless, from the digital scans to the final results. The office itself is modern and well-organized, and the team—especially Susan and the office manager—are professional, kind, and attentive. I felt completely taken care of every step of the way. If you value both function and form, this is the dental team to trust.
July 18, 2025Qisheng Z.Verified patient
I came to Dr. Lu wanting to refresh my smile and ended up with a couple veneers that exceeded my expectations. From the digital mock-ups to the final results, the attention to detail was next-level. The entire team was welcoming and supportive throughout. I get compliments on my smile constantly now—and as someone always meeting new people, that confidence boost is priceless. Thank you, Dr. Lu!

As someone who works with many clients, a confident smile is important—and Dr. Lu and his team delivered! I completed Invisalign here and followed it up with whitening, and the results are amazing. The whole process was smooth, tech-forward, and incredibly well-explained. I never felt rushed, and I appreciated how the team always made sure I was comfortable and informed. The office is spotless, modern, and friendly—exactly what you want in a dental experience. Highly recommend Lu Dental for anyone looking to upgrade their smile.

The staff at Lu Dental Care are always welcoming and accommodating. Scheduling appointments is straightforward, and the team ensures that each visit runs smoothly, minimizing wait times and maximizing patient comfort. There was a hiccup with the wait time due to the power outtage they had earlier but the team made sure we were comfortable and made sure to give me an extra toothbrush on my way out.
July 10, 2025Bren M.Verified patient
As someone who has been a patient at Lu Dental Care for the past couple years, I can confidently say that this practice has been a cornerstone of my dental health journey.

Having visited many other dental office since I've had to move around for work I'm really impressed by the care I recieved from Dr. Lu and his team. The check in was seamless and the assistants were very attentive to getting me seated and making sure I was comfortable. Shuang the hygienist pointed out areas to concentrate on brushing better before Dr. Lu came to do his check. Great office and my go-to dentist in LA now I can't recommend Dr. Lu enough.
May 28, 2025James H.Verified patient
I visited Dr. Benjamin Lu as a new patient today and had an excellent experience. The check-in process was quick and seamless, and I was seen within just a few minutes. The exam area was exceptionally clean and well-organized, which immediately put me at ease, especially since I’ve had less-than-great experiences at other dental offices in the past.
The X-rays were done efficiently, and I had the chance to meet Dr. Lu for the first time. He was thorough in explaining the X-ray results and offered valuable advice and guidance on maintaining my dental health. After reviewing my results, I received a professional and thorough cleaning.
From start to finish, the entire visit took about an hour. Overall, my experience at Lu Dental Care was fantastic, and I highly recommend this office to anyone searching for a reliable and trustworthy dentist. For a first visit, it exceeded all my expectations!

I’ve been coming to Dr. Benjamin Lu’s office for the past few years, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received. Recently, I got white fillings done, and I was blown away by how smooth the entire process was. Dr. Lu’s precision and attention to detail are incredible—he made sure the fillings matched perfectly with my natural teeth, and they feel great. The entire team is fantastic. Viki the dental assistant, is friendly and makes sure you’re comfortable. Lucy, the hygienist, is excellent at keeping teeth clean and healthy with her cleanings. It’s clear they care about their patients and take pride in their work. If you’re looking for a skilled dentist and a team that makes you feel at ease, this is the place to go! Highly recommend.

Dr. Lu has definitely earned my trust and loyalty through all the times I've seen him. His recommendations are on point and he communicates my problems with care and kindness. The hygienist Rebecca also take time to review areas where I should brush more and concentrate more on my floss, pointing out areas that tend to have food trapped when I eat.
