Vasken H Bilemjian, DMD

Dr. Bilemjian is a wonderful DMD! He has performed numerous painless fillings on me — he is extremely gentle, kind and professional. He is very knowledgeable in his craft and goes beyond the basics and understands the entire head/​jaw/​nose anatomy and how it relates to your teeth. I will continue to refer family and friends to him as he does not disappoint. The hygienists and front office (Nina) are also very professional, friendly and courteous. I look forward to my next check up!

Dr. Henry is professional, gentle, and truly talented! I have a low pain tolerance when it comes to my teeth, and Dr. Henry knows that. I honestly feel no pain during fillings and cleanings. Before any visit I start to feel anxious about the pain but by the end of my visit I feel silly for wasting my time being anxious. Dr. Henry knows how to make his patients feel welcome and comfortable. I look forward to my visits! Thank you Dr. Henry and Staff!

Have been a patient of Dr Bilemjian for 3 years now. He is the most professional, we’ll mannered, upbeat Dentist I’ve ever been to. He takes an utmost pride in his work and would not cut corners. Quality and patient comfort is primary concern. I recommend him to everyone in my family and group of friends.

Doctor Bilemjian and all his staff are the greatest! As other reviewers have said, the office is clean and modern, the staff is courteous and cheerful, appointments are on-​time. When I need x-​rays sent to a periodontist, it happens! There are never billing «computer» glitches that you encounter with other health care places sometimes.
As a 65-​year-​old woman with a history of cavities since age 5, crowns, root canal, at other dentists, Dr. Bilemjian and the hygienists had their work cut out for them in helping me to better dental maintenance at home. And they do this very nicely.
In 2013 I had a 2^nd molar go rotten (years of neglect not noticed by previous dentists.) This, of course, gave me the worst tooth-​ache of my life. Actually, Dr. Bilemjian and the hygienists had told me earlier that I was in danger of losing this tooth.
When the pain came, the staff worked me into the schedule quickly. Maybe he gave up his lunch hour? Anyway, I was in the chair, and he and the assistant explained that the tooth would be extracted and how to maintain the area afterwards.
Then as they were looking into my mouth and doing what I thought was still exploring, suddenly, I smelled a bad smell… my tooth was gone PAINLESSLY. The smell was the rot underneath. This was quickly addressed by the assistant. But I’ve got to say, I had no idea that he he had pulled the tooth, as it was so smooth and painless, without anesthesia!
As other reviewers have said, for people with past bad dentist office experiences, try Dr. Bilemjian! You’ll never go back to «brand X».

I have been a patient at this office for a couple years now. The office is consistently on-​time with appointment times, the staff are all courteous and professional, and wait times for appointments outside the routine cleaning schedule are not long. Ruth, the hygienist is the most gentle and communicative hygienist I’ve ever experienced. And Dr. Bilemjian is gentle & personable, and the consummate professional. I very highly recommend this dentist’s office (and Ruth as the hygienist) for anyone who may fear visiting the dentist’s office.

While researching for a new dentist, I booked an appointment with Dr. Bilemjian, soley based on Unilocal reviews.
His office is clean, modern and welcoming. His staff welcomed me and were friendly and personable. So we’re off to a great start! I had my teeth cleaned with hygienist, Pam who addressed concerns my previous dentist never mentioned, she was thorough, gentle and did an outstanding job!
In walks Dr. B, who was upbeat, good natured and a great sense of humor. There were issues that needed to be addressed and Dr. B explained everything in detail and we discussed best plan of action.
I had such a positive experience, I left the office feeling happy and upbeat! His energy is contagious!

I had such a great experience today at Dr. Bilemjian’s office. Front desk staff was super nice and very helpful. The wait time was short. Dr. Bilemjian came and introduced himself while I waited for my cleaning. My hygienist was also super great. She was very gentle and got my teeth looking great. She had wonderful bedside manner. They didn’t have the special toothpaste I like in stock but she said she would call me when it arrived. I had my X-​rays done and then had my exam with Dr. Bilemjian. He explained everything and I learned some new stuff today as well. My insurance has a ridiculous waiting period but he is working with me so that it won’t be a huge financial burden. He is great and very personable. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks to all the wonderful staff for making this visit a great experience!

Dr. Bilemjian is the best dentist I have ever had !
He is personable, extremely knowledgable about all his procedures and explained every procedure to me; He is a straight-​shooter; told me what I needed to know; he takes great care of my teeth and sees me as a whole person, not a mouth full of dentition.
Not only is he an excellent dentist, he has a fantastic personailty; always friendly, sophisticated and professional. He exhibits passion about his work which I see in his driving force to give his patients the best treatment possible. (This is why it never ever hurts !) He keeps up on the issues. This gives him joy as far as I can see. He is a «state of the art «doctor, a «state of the art» person.
His staff is incredible. They are perfectly fantastic. Neena is sweet, kind, professional, smart as a whip, knowledgable, beautiful ! and very helpful making appointments or discussing billing issues.
How lucky I was to meet Dr. Bilemjian and his staff. I never ever say «Oh, boy, I have to go to the dentist tomorrow entertaining visions of pain and distress coming.»
No, now i always say, «I have a denitist appointment tomorrow with my amazing dentist, Dr. Bilemjian, and he always takes the best of care with me. So, I actually look forward to going. I trust him. His office is a safe place.
Everybody should see this masterful, talented man. He and his staff do everything right. Thanks, Dr. B. I am truly grateful for your kind, extraordinary expertise.

Until my experience with the office of Dr. Bilemjian, visiting the dentist meant, embarrassment and untold expenses coupled with pain and discomfort.
Dr Bilemjian and his unbelievably personable staff have redefined my idea of dental care. For as long as I can remember I had cavities, broken teeth, jaw pain and sensitivity and I had always been forced to give my entire paycheck to a dentist with yet another theory and «solution» to a singular symptom. Now realizing later that they simply wanted me to keep coming in, filling their file folders with invoices and their wallets with my copays.
On my first visit to Dr Bilemjian I had broken a crown that desperately needed repair and pained me daily. Within minutes of the usual feeling your jaw, x-​rays and general cleaning he paused to ask me if my husband ever heard clicking when I slept. I had so much obvious wear and tear on my natural teeth and dental work as well as jaw pain that he deduced I was «clenching» (not grinding) my teeth at night. This unconscious habit had broken fillings, crowns and normal teeth over time not to mention continuous bouts of jaw pain. He explained to me in layman’s terms exactly what this meant, how it effected my teeth and health and answered all my ignorant questions along the way with patience and understanding.
He not only fixed my crown quickly but also painlessly! Slight pinch of the needle and thats all! Normally after the numbing wears away I feel every tug and drill the dentist performed but thanks to his years of experience and dexterity, I ate a normal dinner that night with no pain whatsoever! He worked with my insurance to get an affordable mouth guard which virtually solved my dental problems. When it arrived he tirelessly sanded and smoothed my guard to perfectly fit my bite without charging me a dime for his efforts.
Now I am a «regular maintenance» patient, something I have never been in my entire life. I actually look forward to scheduling my appointments now. Every visit I’m welcomed with a smile from every staff member, a joke from the Doctor who never fails to remember my occupation and my husband’s name! This office is the perfect blend of professionalism, experience and kindness. If you have any dentals needs, do yourself a favour, go to Dr Bilemjian.

Appointment: 04÷24÷14
I am proud to say that I have been a brave soul and have continued my bi-​yearly appointments with Dr. Bilemjian. As you can see from my last review, it had been 15 years (cringe) since I had been to a dentist.
I give credit to his staff and to him. The staff are all so nice, they make you feel like you are family. Dr. Bilemjian is so funny and puts you at ease, let alone his excellent work as a dentist.

I absolutely cannot say enough about Dr. Bilemjian. Each time I hear the word «dentist» I cringe, each time I hear Dr. Bilemjian, I have a wide smile across my face (that he so diligently and lovingly constructed). Just the thought of being in his office makes me grin!
His work: A masterpiece. Once my dental work is completed, I will post my before/​after pictures and those photos will speak volumes. Each time he performs a procedure, I’m totally in awe. He is a master of this art called dentistry. Dr. Bilemjian is not only skilled, but also very passionate about what he does.
He has such a big heart and an incredible personality. You will find yourself wanting to come into his office without dental issues! Teeth cleaning every three months is a good excuse. Try it, it worked for me.
Going to get work done with Dr. Bilemjian is like a dental and therapy session in one! (Opposed to needing a therapy session AFTER a dental session before I found him). I always leave smiling and laughing because his office and staff are like an unfilmed comedy show. I swear, I’d work there for free if an opportunity allowed.
Sometimes it’s hard to imagine something/​someone so magnificent before actually trying it (or meeting them). Think trying to explain the taste of juicy mangoes, or meeting the love of your life… Kind of like in those instances, it’s difficult to describe Dr. Bilemjian through a public review site. Go and try for yourself, I promise you, you’ll fall in love like the rest of us already have.

I tread going to dentists appointments but Dr. Bilemjian makes it a great experience.
He is very gentle, knowledgeable and great staff.
Highly recommended.

I am SO GLAD I found Dr. Bilemjian! I had the best experience there today. My hygienist did wonderful work and was a pleasure to talk to, and the woman who did my X-​rays was efficient and kind! Dr. Bilemjian was great and made me feel very comfortable there. After coming from a horrible experience elsewhere, I recognized immediately that this place is going to be my new official spot for dentistry. You can absolutely trust them!

He fixed one of my teeth which causing severe pain (have you heard referred pain?) on several location of teeth. He was able to pinpoint the root of problem and fixed. He is great! I highly recommend it

Going to a dentist has always been huge deal for me especially after the terrible exp i had last year with one of the highly rated dentists in pasadena.
I am glad i decided to take a chance and visit Dr Bilemjian. I went in for cleaning and knew this was for the place for me. The service was outstanding. Dr Belemjian is a true professional. Very honest and wont rip you off. I highly recommend him

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE! OK — so, I procrastinated and knew that I needed desperately to come into the dentist for a cleaning. I searched Unilocal for a reputable dentist in Pasadena, and made an appt.
The ladies who worked the front desk were professional and NICE and the bathroom was spotless. I met with Ruth, the dental hygenist that works only on MONDAYS — and was BLOWN away by her service. Not only did she expertly clean my teeth, she gave me guidance — without lecturing — on how to best clean my teeth for their well being. I DO floss, but had done it incorrectly.
Within a week, my gums had completely stopped bleeding and my teeth are sparkling clean. Thank you Ruth for «teaching me how to fish» not fishing for me…
I am anxious to get BACK to the dentist for further cleaning. A first.
THANK YOU!!!

Let me start by saying that my dad is a dentist. So I have a very high standard for what I think makes a good dentist. I have had it drilled into me! (no pun intended)
Dr. Bilemjian and his entire staff are simply amazing. I am always impressed how well they work together in this small office.
Sada the receptionist is so sweet and she runs the office like a top! Cassie is literally the best hygienist that has ever cleaned my teeth! And I have been going for a teeth cleaning every six months since I was 5. She is gentle and thorough, and great especially if you are sensitive or squeamish. She will sort you!
Dr Bilemjian has worked on both me and my husbands teeth. My husband needed extensive treatment that entailed many visits. Dr. B did the work not only efficiently but beautifully. His teeth came out gorgeous! Better than we ever imagined they could! If you need cosmetic work, he is your guy! He is an artist! But he does regular stuff too! And Cora and the sweet blonde lady are awesome too!
I just had fillings and a crown, but I am so happy with them. And Dr. B is a great guy, so the whole experience was actually pleasant! Sounds like an oxymoron, pleasant dentist experience… but totally true!
I thought their work was affordable especially considering the quality of the work!
I really feel fortunate to have found such a brilliant dentist in Dr. Bilemjian! And the whole staff is wonderful!
Dr. Bilemjian is as good as my dad!!! And that is saying a lot!

I have been afraid of the dentist since… i dont know, all my life!
I procrastinated and procrastinated until two of my molars broke while eating. I finally gave in and went dentist shopping. I visited about 3 offices until I met Dr. Bilemjian.
I can’t speak highly enough about him. He has an excellent bed side manner and a witty sense of humor. He was genuinely concerned about my teeth and my budget.
I READ A REVIEW that blasted the front desk girl, Sada. She is very sweet. As you can imagine, she likely deals with some interesting characters throughout her day. She is not rude. I think that lady from Beverly Hills was not served her bill on a silver platter and offered a back rub. Can’t please them all, right?
This is my dentist as long as he is practicing.

Very happy with my experience. I was in search of a new dentist in the area and am very happy with my find. The staff was very friendly. I went here for a cleaning for my first visit. The dental hygienist was very thorough and knowledgeable. The dentist was also very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this office if you are looking for a new dentist.

Everyone here is great! I went in for an exam and a cleaning and I had the absolute best experience! I have never in my life had such a thorough exam or cleaning. My teeth feel awesome. Cassie is the best hygienist I have ever been to and Dr. Bilemjian is great too. If you have ever been reluctant to go to the dentist, don’t be, everyone there has a way of putting you at ease and making you comfortable.
