About Playa District Dental
In the Westchester area near Playa Vista in Los Angeles, Playa District Dental works as a general practice with a strong cosmetic side and a clear focus on patient comfort. Routine dental cleanings and exams anchor the office, keeping patients on track with preventive care, and the practice is set up to move smoothly from everyday maintenance into more involved treatment when it is needed.
The restorative and surgical offerings give the practice useful range. The team places dental implants to replace missing teeth and restore comfortable function, and handles wisdom teeth removal for patients dealing with crowded or impacted molars. For those who feel anxious or face longer procedures, sedation dentistry helps keep appointments manageable, while TMJ/TMD treatment addresses jaw pain, clicking, and tension that affect comfort well beyond the teeth. That attention to both surgical needs and patient ease shapes how care is delivered here.
Cosmetic dentistry is a clear part of the identity. Teeth whitening brightens stained or dulled teeth, veneers reshape and refine the front of a smile, Invisalign offers a discreet path to straighter teeth, and full smile makeovers coordinate larger aesthetic changes into a single plan. Having these alongside general care lets patients pursue both the health and the appearance of their teeth with one familiar team. Affordable dental care is listed among the services, giving cost-aware patients a starting point.
That combination makes Playa District Dental a fit for a range of Westside patients, adults considering implants or wisdom teeth removal, nervous patients who value sedation, those managing a troublesome jaw through TMJ care, and anyone wanting cosmetic refinement from a single office. Emergency dentistry covers sudden breaks and pain. For Los Angeles residents near Westchester and Playa Vista who want comfort-focused care that spans routine, surgical, and cosmetic dentistry, Playa District Dental offers a versatile and approachable option in one location. The pairing of sedation and TMJ care with Invisalign, smile makeovers, and wisdom teeth removal makes the practice a comfortable fit for patients who want both ease and range, and with whitening and veneers rounding out the cosmetic side, Playa District Dental gives the Westchester and Playa Vista area a well-equipped, patient-friendly option in one place.
Playa District Dental, in the Westchester area near Playa Vista in Los Angeles, blends general and cosmetic care with patient-comfort options, cleanings, implants, Invisalign, and smile makeovers, plus sedation dentistry and TMJ/TMD treatment. Wisdom teeth removal and emergency care round it out for Westside patients wanting wide-ranging treatment.

Great service
Beautiful facility, nice and attentive staff, Dr E was straightforward. I look forward to bringing my whole family here
Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. A great dental experience. Highly recommend. Anyone who is looking for a difference in a dental visit.
new patient and my experience was AMAZING! Everyone was so kind and understanding. As someone who has experienced dental issues, I struggle finding a dentist who I feel comfortable with. However, this office has eased my dental anxiety tremendously and I can’t wait to come back for my next appointment!
Very friendly and great work too. Highly recommend 👍
The service and procedure was well. I like this dental office
Extremely pleasant experience! From the moment that I entered, the receptionists’ were warm & welcoming,. The dental hygienist was gentle during my cleaning and Dr. Ligans was patient and answered all of my questions and concerns. Thank you!
I had a great experience during my first visit at Playa District Dental. Ms. Shonnie and the entire dental office staff was friendly, professional, and efficient. I really appreciated only waiting about five minutes before being called back to begin my dental exam. Dr. Erik Ligans (“Dr. E”) was very considerate and professional throughout my visit. He checked in with me frequently during my procedure to make sure I was comfortable and doing well with tolerating the pain. I also appreciated the dental office’s state-of-the-art facility. The modern technology used by Dr. E and his staff detected a cavity that my previous dentist missed during a routine checkup, just two months earlier, because his office used outdated equipment. Overall, I was very impressed with the quality of care and would highly recommend Playa District Dental.
The best dentist I've been to hands down im 53 years old.Thank you
I truly enjoyed my experience. The staff was amazing! The positive energy was palpable. The team was thorough. Dr E clearly conveyed any dental concerns and offered great recommendations. It’s clear he’s passionate about his craft and profession. I highly recommend Playa District Dental. Oh I must say that even before my visit the staff’s professionalism was impressive.
Dr. E and his entire team have been truly wonderful over the past few months to Else. From the very first visit, they showed such genuine kindness, patience, and care. They created a calm and supportive environment, always taking the time to ensure comfort and never rushing through appointments. I especially appreciated how attentive they were to her needs, allowing breaks when needed and even offering a protein shake when she was hungry. Those thoughtful touches made a meaningful difference and did not go unnoticed. Although her time as a patient was brief, she looked forward to every visit and felt very at ease in your care. As she prepares to move, it is bittersweet to say goodbye. She will truly miss you all. Thank you again for your compassion and dedication. It meant more than you know.
