Insurance and Coverage

Denti-Cal: Not confirmed This office is listed as taking Denti-Cal but we could not find it in the current state listing. That is not the same as a no, so call and ask.
Medi-Cal plan type: Fee for service. Medi-Cal dental also runs through managed care plans in Sacramento and Los Angeles counties, and the state list we check does not cover those. If you are on a dental plan card rather than plain Medi-Cal, ask the office whether they take your plan.
Other insurance: Not known. This list is built around Medi-Cal dental, so it does not track private plans. Ask the office which ones they take.

I’ve been going here for years. I’m had many dentist in my life but I’ve never had such an awesome dentist as this place. The staff is amazing, so fun to interact with. They make me feel comfortable and I never get nervous coming in. They are so gentle with my needs and always understanding. Love this place.

I honestly just had the best dental experience I've ever had! From the moment I walked in, everything was exceptional. My appointment started right on time, the entire team was warm, welcoming, and genuinely fun. They actually had me laughing during my X-rays, which I never thought was possible!
The dentist came in almost immediately, took the time to listen, thoroughly explained everything, and never once tried to upsell me on unnecessary treatment. Instead, I walked away feeling like he truly cared about me and my long-term dental health.
For the first time in a very long time, I feel like I've found my dentist. I actually look forward to coming back, and that's something I never imagined I'd say. If you're looking for an honest, caring, efficient dental office with an amazing team, I highly recommend!

My husband and are very impressed with Dr Ovanesian and his ENTIRE staff. As Canadians, we found the fees were very reasonable even factoring in the exchange rate. My husband had several old fillings removed and replaced, and also a crown. The cost was much lower than what we are used to paying in Canada. The dental care is top drawer and very professional! We highly recommend this dentist at his dental office in Cathedral City and intend on having our dental work done here, rather than in Canada. Thank you Dr Ovanesian AND staff.
