Martin Phandl, DMD

Dr. Martin Phandl originally grew up in Huntington Beach, CA in Southern California. After earning his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Midwestern University School of Dentistry in Arizona, he moved back to California and the beautiful Peninsula with his dog, Panko. During his dental education, he served and provided dental care to communities in Tonga and Samoa.

Dr. Phandl’s focus is to provide the highest quality and state-of-the-art dentistry to meet the needs of each of his patients. He always takes ample time to listen to each patient’s concerns and answers each question as genuinely as possible.

When he’s not thinking of dentistry, Dr. Phandl enjoys outdoor activities, such as cycling and kayaking. He is always in search of the next best restaurant, so feel free to mention any new eats you’ve stumbled upon. In the past you could find him at Disneyland in between the churro kiosks and rollercoasters.

Just wanted to thank Dr. Martin Phandl and his wonderful staff for making my recent dental appointment experiences the best they could be. Dr. Phandl couldn't have been more kind or patient. He made sure there was ZERO pain or discomfort, and that I was doing okay throughout my procedures. They were such easy dental appointments, which for me, is saying a lot!! I was also very impressed with the new technology he uses. The handheld oral scanner was painless and showed 3D images in amazing detail. I would highly recommend Dr. Phandl.

The service Dr. Phandl provides is of the highest quality. From the moment you walk in the door, you’re treated as if you are the most important person there. Dr. Phandl is very easy to talk to and walks you through the process of what he is doing. After my recent visit he showed me the before and after shots of my tooth which was an absolute treat. I would recommend Dr. Phandl to anyone that wants a great dentist and the best service.

Dr. Phandl and his staff provide excellent service. I needed a cracked crown replaced and he was able to do so right away, all in house using CAD software and a 3D printer to create and install the replacement crown. Amazing care - thank you.

How many people can say they love going to the dentist? I can!! I’ve had health problems with my ears and neck. While I visited other doctors and specialists, Dr. Phandl fixed my teeth and voila, my other health issues disappeared. Who knew they were related? He did. Thanks to him, my teeth look and feel incredible and feeling great
