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.

A very rude and unprofessional dentist. When I pointed out that his work had damaged my teeth instead of taking responsibility he reacted with aggression and threats. I wish I could give zero stars. Truly a terrible experience I would never recommend this dentist.

Very rude and unprofessional. He removed my wisdom tooth but also damaged the tooth next to it. The procedure was extremely painful.

Thorough, friendly , appointments within reasonable time, not greedy. Took good care of my messed up teeth.
BTW... He does not do root canals, at least not mine... he referred me to an inexpensive specialist.

Questions People Ask

Does Norik Markarian DMD take Denti-Cal?

Yes. This dentist appears in the state's published list of enrolled Denti-Cal providers. Taking the coverage and having an opening are two different things, so still call ahead.

How do I make an appointment?

Call (818) 242-0040 and say you have Medi-Cal dental. Or use the form on this page. Your request goes to the office if it takes requests here, and to our team if it does not. Nobody else gets it.

What will it cost me?

For most Denti-Cal covered treatment there is no copay. If the office suggests something the program does not cover, ask for the price in writing before you agree.
