Wow!!! Where do I begin? First of all...no one likes going to the dentist....at least I dont. The staff is truly what makes the difference at this first rate facility! From the time I was greeted at the door until I was done...nothing but the best treatment! The exam room was in pristine condition and the hygentist, Faith Berry, was a true delight! She answered all of my questions and constantly monitored ANY discomfort I might be experiencing. My teeth have never been cleaner and the whole process was pain free...thanks Faith! Darlene did the impressions for my bleaching trays and her professionalism and dedication to her job was nothing short of spectacular! If you want the best for your teeth there is truly none other the Dr Latiff....hey..that sounds like a new slogan!

Dr. Latif is the BEST....hands down!!! I am one of those people who dread going to the dentist. I am terrified. My teeth were in really bad shape because I had a horrific past experience when my previous dentist continued to work on my teeth when I was not numb. Needless to say, the first time I sat down in Dr. Latifs chair I was so nervous I wanted to throw up. It was wonderful! There really was no pain.....I kept waiting for it to hurt, and it never did! He is so kind and gentle and he truly cares about how you are feeling.

Also, most importantly, Dr. Latif does beautiful work. He has completely re-done my smile and it looks amazing!

Thank you Dr. Latif!!!

Dr.Sami Latif is friendly, personable, professional and very well informed of the latest dental technology and treatment. The staff is phenomenal and they make your overall dental experience absolutely wonderful . After, having a bridge, a crown, and numerous cavity fillings done by Dr. Latif, I highly recommend him to anyone that is searching for their next dentist!! He is patient and gentle, and most importantly he cares about his patients and makes sure every visit is painless and efficient! I love my dentist and his staff and would not go anywhere else.

About Hygienist: After, having my teeth cleaned I have never had any pain assocated with the cleanings. The hygienist is very gental.

Patient Review 10:

It is a shame that I had to muddle thru a lot of substandard dental work before I found Dr. Sam Latif at Ohio Cosmetic Dentists. I have always been less than enthusiastic about going to any dentist because it ended up being such an exasperating experience, but I was driving on Sawmill one day, saw the building and decided that I had nothing to lose, so I called. There were no judgmental comments, just an honest appraisal of what had to be done, as well as no pressure about a time table for it. Basically, the majority of my appointments with him have been focused on cleaning up others dental work, but it has been a pleasant surprise to find that I actually look forward to those appointments, not only because of his professional and painless way of getting the job done, but because of his exceptional staff as well. - Jilly P

About Hygienist: THE Hygienist, couldn't be more gentle and thorough than she already is. Not only is it a pleasant experience to get my teeth cleaned, she can also note very quickly if there might be something wrong that needs to be corrected by Dr.Latif.

Patient Review 11:

I first visited Dr. Latif in the summer of 2008 and immediately recommended him to all of my family and friends. I have been in for routine cleanings, and also had a few fillings done at his office. I couldn't feel a thing during the numbing process (not even a tiny pinch!), and he strongly believes in no pain, asking continually if I had any discomfort. Each room has a monitor/tv for the patient; you can flip through the channels during your appointment, which is a nice distraction. Dr. Latif also uses this screen and a small camera to show you what he sees in your mouth, ie - places that need to be brushed better and your teeth before and after a filling. Dr. Latif has been extremely generous to me as a patient. He did two fillings for me at no charge, one because he was dissatisfied with the original work, and the other because he was working on another filling and saw decay on the tooth next to it; since it didn't appear on the xray he wasn't able to notify me beforehand so he did it at no charge. Plus, a month before my wedding he gave me teeth whitening for free! I honestly feel that Dr. Latif and his staff treat each patient as if they were a family member - they always call the next day to see how you're feeling!

About Hygienist: I cannot say enough nice things about Tiffany, Faith, Darlene, and Sandy. They all make you feel completely at ease and make the office a truly friendly environment.

Patient Review 12:

I first went to Dr. Latif for a broken tooth. There is not enough space here to completely explain how happy I am with the whole experience. When he was unable to do what I originally wanted due to the poor condition of the tooth he did not charge me for all of the work he had done up to that point. When was the last time you had something like that happen? Almost unheard of in this day and age. He then explained what my options were and what he felt was best and completely explained why he felt the way he did. He was not willing to do something that was not going to last long term even if it was going to make him more money. If it is not going to last he is not willing to put his name on it. I truly feel that he puts the patients best interest first and foremost. That is called integrity.

I have never been afraid of getting the shots that numb you but he has a technique that is truly painless. When he told me his secret (I will let you ask him) It made me wonder why more dentists don't care enough to do it the same way.

I went back one week later and had two crowns put on. All done in one visit. Again Dr. Latif impressed me with his chair side manner and his skill and technique. Once again he helped me out on the cost. F.W.

About Hygienist: I can't say enough about Darlene, Tiffany and Sandy. Friendly, compassionate, always concerned about your comfort. Very, very skilled. Watching Darlene use the computer software in preparation of making the crowns was truly amazing.

I received a call the day after each appointment, checking to see how I was doing. I have never had that happen at any other dentist I have been to.

The fact that some of his staff have been with him for 25 years speaks volumes about Dr. Latif. A truly high tech highly skilled dentist and a fine man of true integrity.

I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Latif and his staff to everyone I know. F.W.

Patient Review 13:

Dr Latif is wonderful! I came in with only a few months to go before my wedding and he straightened out a few off teeth with braces in two months! I had braces in high school but didn't wear my retainer. Dr Latif told me that teeth have memory and they would go back quickly and he was right. My retainer is light and clear, nothing like the awkward metal one I had before. I'm having my teeth whitened at this very moment in his office and I can't wait to show off my smile at my wedding in a couple weeks!

About Hygienist: The staff is great and they really make you as comfortable as possible! They're understanding and flexible too. I've had to do some last minute appointment changes with all the wedding planning craziness and I haven't had any problems!

Thank you so much to Dr Latif, Darlene and the rest of the staff.

I went to Dr. Latif to help take my smile to the next level for my wedding day. He suggested veneers and a couple other procedures. His vision of what he wanted my smile to look like was amazing and he knew exactly how to get it there. He would go above and beyond on everything he did to make the teeth look perfect. It was amazing how painless everything was. I never felt a shot and he always was conscious of what I was feeling and taking precautions ahead of time to make sure I was comfortable.

My fiance is a second year dental student and watched as he did his procedures. She was amazed at his skill and inspired by what he can do with someone's teeth. I now feel much more confident when I smile and feel like I have a smile you see in pictures. If your thinking about cosmetic work for your teeth go for it and go to Dr. Latif, you won't be sorry.

I had gone to Dr. Latif in June (2009) and had some work done on my front teeth. I had a chip that I was very self-conscious of but after my appointment with Dr. Latif, I was extremely happy! He did a wonderful job and I love my new smile. Also, the price was very reasonable. The staff was also genuinely very friendly and thoughtful. Dr. Latif himself was very nice and had a good sense of humor. I actually was comfortable at a dentist's office. This is an excellent office to go to. Thank you everyone at the office for being great!

Dr. Latif did bridge work on the front of my teeth. I have been to other dentists and was scared to death of dental procedures and pain . I was recommended to see Dr Latif by a friend who told me he how great he was and that there was no pain involved. I was very skeptical, however I made an appointment and he assured me all would be okay. Dr Latif did an excellant job and now I am no longer afraid of going to a dentist. He has taken the fear away. I want to have him as my dentist for the rest of my life. as he is very professional and does quality work. His staff was outstanding, they calmed my fears and worked with me on my payments. Having completed my dental work, I can smile again.

Patient Review 17:

I was in incredible pain yesterday at work. I just knew if I found a dentist it would probably take a couple of weeks. I read all the reviews on Dr. Latif, they seemed good. At first I just emailed the facility and then I thought I better just call. When I called the staff was so nice, I got in the same day just a couple hours after I called. When we arrived everyone was so friendly and curtious. They explained everything to me before they did anything. The Doctor did not hurt me whatsoever. Even the numbing experience was pleasant. I was so comfortable when I was in the chair, and they had little television to watch while the doc was doing his thing. He was constantly asking if I was in pain and if I was okay.

I would say that this was the best experience I have ever had at any appt. and that I would recommend him to each and everyone. I can honestly say that i am no longer afraid to go to the dentist. And actually I can't wait to go back to my next appt.

To all those afraid to go to the dentist, I would recommend you go to Dr. Latif. Dr. latif and his wonderful staff will make you not afraid and not dread another dentist appt again.

Thanks to the wonderful staff and a big Thanks to you Dr. Latif.....

About Hygienist: Tiffany was wonderful. She was very personable. She really took my mind off being in a dentist chair. This is really the best staff.....

I contacted Dr. Latif's office on Sunday via the internet and they called me the next day to schedule an appointment for the following day. I had a broken tooth which Dr. Latif fixed on the spot with an overlay and he also replaced a filling. I had absolutely no pain. I was also interested in some cosmetic dentistry and he gave me all of my options and told me what he would do if he were me....which actually wasn't the treatment that would have made the most money for him. He didn't just want to put on a bunch of veneers...he actually referred me to an orthodonist because he wanted me to get my bite fixed too even though, cosmetically, he could have acheived similar results with veneers. His chair-side manner was outstanding also. JK

About Hygienist: Very nice and very friendly. The whole office staff was extremely nice.

I had an overlay put on over a back tooth that was more cost efficient than a crown. It was all done in one visit. Dr. Latif actually made the tooth while I was there . The previous dentist I had gone to was going to crown it & it was not necessary & also other work that ,as it turns out ,was not necessary. I had no pain during or after. The only discomfort is a slight soreness if I touch that side of my face. Dr. Latif was very compassionate & asked several times if I was comfortable or in any pain. He was recommended by a co-worker & I would highly recommend him to others. He & his staff are so helpful and friendly. They make you feel right at home. They are all wonderful!

Patient Review 20:

I moved to Columbus a little over a year ago. I had a temporary crown which my previous dentist back in Wisconsin had put in fall out. I wasn't able to get back to WI until the permanent crown was to be put on in another 2 weeks. I was panicked about what to do. I googled "dentists in Columbus" and Dr Latif was the first one that came up. I immediately called him and explained my situation. To my surprise he told me to come right over and in less than an hour I had a new temporary on and it was as good as new. I couldn't believe it ! I have had a lot of teeth problems and lots of work done with my dentist in WI but knew I had to find a dentist in Columbus. I had been flying to WI to get work done there because I didn't think it was possible to find another dentist I felt comfortable with. Dr Latif proved me wrong. I was so impressed with my initial visit I decided to give him a try with a few small things I needed done. I felt immediately omfortable with him and didn't get the dreaded feeling that I get before I usually go to the dentist. Since that first visit I've had all of teeth capped, cavities filled, 2 bridges amoung other things. He always does a thorough I didn't think their were doctors like Dr Latif out there!!

My husband and I are so appreciative that Dr. Latif is our dentist. In fact, we drive across town just to see him and will see no other dentist. Dr. Latif fixed a problem I had with an onlay that was done by another dentist in New Albany. He also fixed my husband's bothersome crowns that were done by yet another dentist from German Village. Dr. Latif is kind, compassionate, caring and professional. The office staff is amazing as well. They are very accommodating and reassuring and worked with us when insurance gave us a problem. We highly recommend Ohio Cosmetic Dentists, Dr. Latif and his staff.

I could not begin to tell you what a great experience I have had with this dedicated group of Pro's!!! After years of experiencing the decline of my Navy provided dental work, Dr Latif provided a game plan for restoration and repair and it has been flawless. Everything has been exactly as I expected and more. In fact, my sister who works in the dental field praised the work that has been performed and gave it the big thumbs up. If you need to see a dentist for functional work or cosmetic enhancement, dont look any further, you wont find a better fit!! The entire staff is awesome and truly care about your well being.

I found Dr. Latif thanks to Dr. Oogle reviews myself as I was not satisfied with my previous dentist's work after moving to the area and not knowing anyone. Dr. Latif and his staff have proven to be high-level professionals, very knowledgeable about procedures, efficient and do painless and very high-quality work. After needing some simple procedures like fillings done I have moved on to crowns that were long overdue. I'm very satisfied with the outcome, Dr. Latif's work is quick and precise and I'm confident that these crowns will last. As an added bonus he's very skilled at not causing pain while doing his work, which will be surprising the first time. The dental office of Dr. Latif is clean, modern and comfortable, with adjustable TV for a patient and comfortable chairs. The staff is very friendly and professional and after getting to know them it doesn't feel like visiting a doctor's office at all, they remember who you are. I'm also impressed that they are efficient at filing insurance claims and even offered to provide x-rays when I mentioned I was going to an overseas trip. All in all I feel very lucky that I took the risk after reading the reviews here and decided to go to Dr. Latif!

About Hygienist: Dr. Latif's hygienist who has treated me is extremely friendly, thorough and professional. I needed deep cleaning done as my first treatment and was a bit afraid, but completely needlessly as my gums are now in their best health ever. What has impressed me the most is that she takes her time and manually goes from one tooth to another until all of them are checked. She is the best hygienist that I've ever had.

Dr. Latif is a crafstman and is very good at what he does. His staff is good natured and skilled. His facilities are clean and seem to have the latest hardware.

They can make arrangements with you for payment and offer financing.

Please note: If I did not think he could do a good job, I would not post this review, as I generally mistrust highly paid proffessionals. However, Dr. Latif is expert in his craft.

Good luck and God Bless.

Incredibly painless, enjoyable experience. 4 veneers and 2 teeth bonded and it is like night and day! i went in with yellower, less than perfect teeth and came out with white, perfect teeth! definitely worth the cost of any procedure you are looking at having done. staff was very smart and caring which makes it that much more pleasurable. Dr. Latif's explanations and recommendations were easily understandable and very thorough. I would certainly recommend anyone having any dental procedure to visit Dr. Latif and his office. I will be back again for future work!

Dr. Latif was recommended to me by a good friend and I am really happy with all the work he has done for me. I had pain in a crowned front tooth. Dr. Latif fit me in that day and I needed a root canal. He was able to do the root canal through my crown and did not have to replace the crown. There was no pain during the procedure, not even for the anesthetic injection. Dr. Latif even called me that night to see how I was feeling. I had no pain the next day - it was great. His staff handled all my insurance claims so I simply paid the balance. The office is very clean, bright and modern with tvs to watch while you are in the chair. He also has digital radiographs and a digital camera that are linked to the tv monitor so you can see everything. The staff are very firendly and always asking how you are doing. During this same visit Dr. Latif found a problem with a filling on a molar I was not aware of and he has repaired that as well. For all future work my husband and I will be going to Dr. Latif.

Patient Review 30:

Currently a student with no insurance and was faced with life changing events - attending an annual world famous networking conference and a reunion with a father whom I haven't seen in over 26 years. So that being said I direly needed dental rework done and I was not about to visit some low income dentist for cheap work.

So I searched here and read about Dr. Latif. Believe it or not despite my own financial shortcomings he helped work around me getting this work accomplished. His staff were the most welcoming and caring dental staff I have ever dealt with EVER.

As for the dental work itself - it looks amazing. Everyone from family and friends, to even the people I'd meet at that networking conference, to even my dad whom I hadn't seen in so long would complement my "perfect healthy smile."

If you are looking for the highest quality of service above anything else, then Dr. Latif's office is the place to go hands down. All the reviews here are correct.

Everything good writen in these reviews is correct!!! I have never had any dentist personally call me later to see how I was doing or fix another doctors screwup for free. He is both compentent and ethical. He is very considerate and takes the time to work with you to make things right without charge. The whole office atmosphere is just great. You can instantly tell everyone enjoys working there and they are all delighted to be helpful. I've been there three times and never had to wait. He doesn't over schedule or make you feel rushed. I've been to a lot of different dentists and I'm old enough to tell when a dentist knows what he's doing and when he doesn't. Dr. Sam Latif not only knows what he's doing, he's great at it!

Dr. Latif and his staff are the most wonderful people! They always know who you are when you come in and have such a personal touch to the office atmosphere. The service is awesome! I have never had any pain with the procedures I have had there. Dr. Latif is the only dentist I have ever been to that makes it so easy. My husband and I are both patients and we will never go anywhere else! I have had cavities filled, braces, and will also get whitening when the braces come off. After I lost my son in 2005, I thought I would never smile again. Once I did, I hated my smile. Dr latif has given my beautiful smile back to me and there is no greater gift I could ever receive. Thank you Dr Latif for giving me back my ability to smile without being self concious. You're the greatest dentist I know!

Are you kidding me!?!? I thought all these reviews were too good to be true--but it turns out this really is the greatest dentist ever. He really WILL call you to make sure you're feeling okay! I have had an irrigation/abscess removed, and a cavity filled. I never felt a thing. Not even the shot for the anesthetic! I wasn't even sure he gave me a shot, to be honest, so I actually asked to make sure. This man makes me want to take care of my teeth, he is that kind and amazing. They gave me lip balm, too! The atmosphere of the whole office is so nice.

Never has it been enjoyable to go to the dentist before. With Dr. Latif's friendly and caring staff it's a pleasure. Dr. Latif himself makes it his priority to ensure the comfort and utmost satisfaction of every patient. His equipments is by far the most technologically advanced I have seen at any dentist's office. For the first time in my life I am completely confident with my smile.

I've known Dr. Sam Latif for over 5 years. He's done cleanings, crowns and root canals. Absolutely the BEST dentist I've ever used. He's careful, thoughtful and almost pain free. I've had horrible experiences with other dentists with my crowns but not with Dr. Sammy. I recommend him to everyone I know! My husband feels the same way and he hated going to the dentist before. Not any longer. I've never experienced a dentist who cares as much about how you look AND how you feel when you come to his office.

About Hygienist: All of the hygienist Dr. Sam works with are top notch, careful and pleasant. Of course they would have to be in order for the whole experience to always be great. In all the years I've seen Dr. Sam, I've never had a bad experience.

Dr. Latif is the most caring dentist that I have ever experienced. He is very interested in each patient at an individual level, and he understands the point of view of each patient and does ALL that he can to make their lives easier and less stressful. I have two maryland bridges that do not like to stay put. Every time that I have noticed that one of them is loose, I call the office and see if they are able to fix it. I am away at school, so they do all that they can to get me scheduled when I am able to come in. It is very nice to have a dentist who will work with my schedule in mind and help me to get the re-cementing done as soon as possible. I do not know of any other dentist that would do that! Dr. Latif is always understanding and you can tell that he loves to do his job :) Words cannot explain just how thankful I am to have such a perfect dentist who will help me right away when something goes wrong.

About Hygienist: She is so kind and so nice to talk to. She really cares about what is going on and will be by your side throughout any procedure. She and Dr. Latif are the best team! I know that I am always in good hands and do not worry about anything when I go into the office.

I have already entered a review for Dr. Latif & his staff, but felt compelled to leave another one after my latest dental "issue" - broken jaw. Dr. Latif's office wasted no time getting me into the office, x-ray'd & getting me referred to an oral surgeon ASAP. As usual, everything went quick & there was no pain. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Latiff & his staff.

About Hygienist: I think this says it all: as i was leaving to go to the oral surgeon, one of the staff gave me a yoghurt from her personal "stash" - I had not eaten since the accident & could not move my jaw much.

Dr Latif and his staff are WONDERFUL!!!!!! I have had a lot of dental work done in my 40 yrs. I have not had the best of luck with going to the dentist. Everything seemed to always happen to me; wisdom teeth out they sewed my cheek to my gum, had to have two teeth that grew in the roof of my mouth sideways brought down and they didn't give me enough to knock me out so I felt everything, and lastly I had gum surgery and the electric went out in the middle of it. Because of all of these bad experiences I have been afraid to go to the dentist. Since going to Dr Latif, I am no longer afraid to go to the dentist because he is very professional and very caring . Sandy, Darlene and Faith always make it a very enjoyable time and now I look forward to my dental appointments.

Dr. Latif is simply fantastic. He is very friendly and helpful. The facilities are top-notch, very clean with cutting edge technology. Dr. Latif uses a small mounted camera to show you step by step what he is doing during a procedure so there are no doubts about what is going on. He helped prevent a root-canal by catching what he thought was a very small cavity that my previous dentist hadn't found, which wound up being much larger than expected.

My wife and I would recommend Dr. Latif to anybody. The staff is extremely friendly and we can guarantee that this will be the best dental experience you've ever had.

Patient Review 40:

My story is a simple one. I had 2 small cavities as a result of a retainer that I repeatedly complained of to my newly assigned family medicaid dentist back in high school. She accused me of exaggerating everything from the cavities to the pain. I became afraid to see any dentist ever again... until I *had* to. I wound up getting mediocre treatment, that led to extractions, and a needed root canal.

When I realized how serious my dental situation had become, I got serious about seeking serious dental expertise. I searched until I found this website. I saw the reviews, and was admittedly skeptical (could you blame me?). I went in for an evaluation, and after experiencing Dr. Latif's technology and caring spirit, I knew it was worth a try.

I have been a happy client ever since. Dr. Latif and his staff (who are amazingly friendly) made me remember what good dental work is like... pain free!! And done right the first time. I feel safer with Dr. Latif than I've felt with any dentist all my life. They make sure I am getting the best price, and am comfortable every step of the way. I, a very reasonably skeptical consumer, have been telling all my friends about him! Dr. Latif is the best! See for yourself!!

I am a college student who upon coming to college broke a tooth. Since my "lifetime" dentist lived so far away, I looked for dentist in my area. I read Dr. Latif's reviews and decided to make an appointment. It had to be the best dentist experience I have ever had! I mean going to a dentist is never fun, but the staff made sure that I was comfortable and had no pain. Dr. Latif was very caring and professional. He and the whole staff are wonderful people who not only care about their high level of services, but they also deeply care about their patients. The staff was very helpful about making appointments with my busy schedule. I would recommend Ohio Cosmetic Dentist and Dr. Latifs staff to anyone&THEY ARE THE BEST!!!

They took the time to make sure I was comfortable and asked me continuously if I was "OK" and made sure I ws not in discomfort. I was very impressed!!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Latif. I live over an hour away and was looking for someone who could finally help with my tooth pain. (My regular dentist had just dismissed it as not finding anything). I saw this website and made an appt with Dr. Latif. His entire staff were very caring, courteous and kind, as well as Dr. Latif. He ran some scans and found a couple cracked teeth and put a partial crown/onlay on my tooth. He used the most modern equipment and it was done in one day. His staff would call to see if I was feeling okay and were interested in having a no-pain approach, which is very refreshing. He did a wonderful job and I would highly recommend him! Thank you for solving my problem!

Dr Latif had given me my smile 7 years ago and I can never thank him enough. Since then I smile all the time and when people complement my smile, I laugh because I know what it used to be and how lucky I am now.

On my yesterday visit, I was amazed with the new technology they use now. In just one visit, Dr Latif did two root canals on me and then he scanned an image of my teeth using some new machine; they dont use gum anymore. Then the assistant sketched some lines over the image using the same machine. After that my new permanent crowns were milled on another machine, then the doctor fixated my new crowns and I was good to go. The whole thing was so easy and comfortable and the assistants were very nice and kept checking on me all the time.

I have been to many dentists but Dr. Latif and his staff are the best I have been to anywhere!!! I have had a lot of dental work done in the past and have had problems with proper pain control. This has made going to the dentist in the past for anything more than a cleaning very stressful.

Going to Dr. Latif's clinic was a wonderful change! He and his staff are totally focused on the patient and their comfort and satisfaction from start to finish. Tirelessly devoted to the best result possible, they made my crown flawlessly and went above and beyond to ensure my complete comfort and pain-free visit.

I would wholeheartedly recommend them due to their commitment to quality and the well-being of their patients!!

About Hygienist: Faith is always so happy and welcoming. I look forward to my cleanings now and am comfortable that all my dental needs are taken care of with her attention to detail.

Today, Darlene took care of me during my crown procedure and was always thinking of my comfort and well-being during this procedure. She answered all my questions and even gave me a picture of the tooth before and after! These little things mean alot and definitely prove that this clinic is the best!

I didn't have dental care until I was an adult. Due to the lack of care in those early years, I had many cavities and problems with my teeth that made me feel ashamed. Trips to the dentist were uncomfortable and painful--I thought this was normal. It got to the point where I didn't want to go at all, and for the last 5 years, I hadn't seen a dentist. I was dreading going. I found Dr. Latif on this website, and I was encouraged by the positive reviews. I made an appointment and talked to the lady who runs the office and told her that I was very fearful of dental work. She was very reassuring and kind. I had a cleaning first, and the hygienist was excellent--it was a very comfortable experience. Today I had a crown done and also an old filling done over. It was a wonderful, pain-free experience. The shots of xylocaine didn't even hurt! Dr. Latif and his assistants are very kind and concerned about patient comfort. Dr. Latif even called me at home to make sure I was doing OK. After many years, I have finally found a dentist that I feel comfortable with and confident about. I have more work to be done, but after today, I am no longer dreading an appointment with the dentist. I highly recommend this practice.

WOW! WOW! WOW!

In the past I cannot tell you how much anxiety I had going to a dentist!!! I put off the discomfort as long as possible (about 4 years). I researched dentists on line for months. When I found this Oogle site and read the reviews of Dr. Latif, I decided to try to go to a dentist again. My first line of communication with his office, of course, was when I called Sandy and scheduled an appointment. Her charm and compassion was generated thru the phone line. In my first procedure, I had a temporary crown placed on a front tooth. I was totally relaxed and the end result was pure perfection. The tooth is awesome!! So natural!! Dr, Latif does beautiful, gentle work in a very comfortable environment and I am actually eagerly awaiting my next appointment (very unlike me). I encourage anyone that is fearful to heed my words.... Call Dr, Latif

I cannot tell you how great it feels to know that in a short period of time, I will have my beautiful smile back again!!

About Hygienist: Faith, the Hygienist, was the first person that I worked with at the office. I was certain that I had made the correct decision after spending a few moments in her care. She was very personable and thorough in all her procedures.

- Provided a 100% pain-free experience (sometimes almost overly concerned, because you're almost asked too often if everything is OK. :-)

- Answered any questions

- Were just plain Nice, Nice, Nice

I called Dr. Latiff's office in tears on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. I was having a terrible time. My mother had passed away earlier in the week. My tooth broke that morning. I called my regular dentist and was told I couldn't get in for two weeks. Not my idea of customer service. I jumped on the internet looking for help. Prayed and found Dr. Latiff.

When I called Dr. Latiff's office and explained to Sandy what happened she was very concerned and asked me if I could come in that day. Told me to come as soon as I could get there. I told her that money was an issue since the veneer was going to cost 1,000. She told me they have a company that finances.

I showed up when the Dr. and staff usually go to lunch. They took me even then. They were so professional and sweet. I was crying off and on. Absolutely no pain at all, they are always asking if I was ok. They fixed me up with a temp so I could try and enjoy my holiday. Ordered my veneer and set an appointment to place the permenent veneer on. I love them and will now only go to Dr. Latiff and his staff.

They Truly are a Gift from God!

I can never say enough good things about Dr. Latif & his staff. From the time you walk in that door and see Sandy or Darlene's shiny happy face to the time you are sitting in the dental chair dealing with Tiffany or Sami himself it is nothing but EXCELLENT dental treatment. I have had all kinds of work done from Sami and his team of professionals, some of the work is over ten years old and is still as good as new. No pains, no breaking no discomfort, just gentle dental care just as he promised the first time I met him over ten years ago.

One service that he does that I love is the camera before and after shots. You really get a true sense of appreciation for his EXCELLENT work and can see the results first hand. He even has a machine in his office that will make your crowns the same day. No need to make follow up appointments or wait. How awesome is that!!!

I simply cannot say enough nice things about this practice. If I could afford a billboard or a commercial to get this message across I would. The best way for me to do this now is to recommend that you call his practice now for an appointment. Call him now at 614.459.7300. You will not be disappointed!!

Dr. Latif has changed my life and I am eternally grateful. On a scale of 1 to 4, the care and treatment I recieved was a 10+++. I have wanted an improved smile for years. Unitl now, I could not afford treatment plans offered by other dentist in the same city, nor was the plan explained to me in detail. Sandy and Darlene are flexible, accomodating, and understanding. Once after a really complex day of treatment, Dr. Latif called my cell phone on a Saturday to see if I was OK, not common treatment from a dentist. However, this is simply how this office operates. They are extremely professional and caring. I have referred friends to the practice, and will continue to do so because this is the best dentist I've ever visited.

After having gone to one of the supposedly best dentists located in Dublin, OH (and having encountered communicative and care issues), I decided to check out what Dr. Latif and his staff could do. This was several years ago, and I am still very happy I have made the switch!

Dr. Latif and his crew (Tiffany & Darlene) show a desire to be in a professional, genuine, and caring relationship with their patients. I always feel welcomed, very well treated, and never fail to walk away with a sense of satisfaction and a reminder of how skilled, insightful, and proficient Dr. Latif is at what he does.

I would recommend for anyone to visit Dr. Latif (whether you have a great dentist or not), and I would entrust anyone I care about into the hands of Dr. Latif and his staff.

As for the administrative aspect; Sandy (office manager) demonstrates wonderful abilities to take care of the patient's needs and concerns. She is clearly well experienced in dealing with insurance companies, and does not fail to completely follow through with any such tasks at hand.

Her effectiveness in dealing with what could be dreadful administrative puzzles for the patients, brings great relief and a high level of satisfaction to all who experience it.

About Hygienist: As much as I have always dreaded dentist visits (who does not?) I must state that it is a joy to be treated by the hygienist working for Dr. Latif (Faith). She has a great way of interacting with her patients, and eases them quickly because of her genuine personality.

Every cleaning (and I am a challenge) is one I walk away from with a feeling of surprise, as in how little discomfort was brought upon me, and how expediently the job was done.

Faith only emphasizes what I have written above (about the staff in general) and makes the overall experience of visiting the dentist's office a rather easy one!

I have had a full mouth rehab by Dr.Latif and could not be more impressed!!! I had not taken very good care of my teeth and they were very bad. I went to see Dr Latif and we were given several choices on what to do. After settling on my choice we started work on my teeth.

I had several appointments one being 4 hours long and never had any severe pain whatsoever. I have numerous root canals and crowns and a bridge !!!

When first asked what my goal was for my teeth, I told Dr. Latif the I just wanted to be able to smile

again, he said you will and I AM and have never been happier. It is so nice to regain some lost self confidence. I have recommended Dr Latif to several people and they are as satisfied as I am.

I have been going to Dr. Latiff for 17 years, and have never felt pain during any procedure. Dr. Latiff is very gentle and concerned for his patients, putting them first. I hope that I never have to go to anyone else. Dr. Latiff, Darlene, and Sandy are the best in Ohio, without a doubt.

Went in to have him examine/extract a wisdom tooth. I expected to have to come back for a 2nd visit, but he was able to get it done that day! I experienced absolutely no pain during the extraction. Yeah, it's most likely going to be sore for a few days, but that's what pills are for. The price was well worth it... kind of sucks I don't have insurance, but that's America for you. Everyone at the office was very polite and the overall visit was great! I highly recommend Dr. Latif. I'll be going back in about a month to get some other work done.

I highly recommend Dr. Latif. Dentists freak me out but i was forced to find one b/c my filling feel out and i was in pain. I looked on here and read the reviews. I called and they got me right in. They were very relaxed and did everything to make me welcome. I did not even feel the shot or know he gave me one. He ask me do you feel numb i gave you a shot and I was shocked. All my teeth need fixed. So far I have had three fillings and three crowns. I am starting to feel healthier. Dr. Latif several times has shown true compassion towards my pain. He is very sensitive to how I feeling and continuously ask how i am doing and if I am feeling anything. The entire staff gets along very well and they all respect one another. I was so embarrassed to go and open my mouth b/c of how bad it was and wondered what they would think and say. I received the kindness and the help I had been seeking. They gave me a wash cloth for my cheek when he was done. There are so many little details that make a diff. My only regret is that I did not find him 20 yrs ago. I have recommended him to my bosses, family and friends and will continue to tell everyone. I feel very blessed to have found him and look forward to have a beautiful smile

About Hygienist: They are great and relax they all seem to be great friends. They are very sensitive and pay attention to my body language and how I feel.

Meeting the Dr. and him evaluating me, I feel and know that this Dr. is the Real Deal and I would follow his practice anywhere. Dr. Latiff did my veneers and I couldn't believe I had no pain.

I moved into the area a few years ago and I made a New Year's Resolution to get my teeth fixed after 10 years of not seeing a dentist. I went to Dr. Latif (b/c of all of his great reviews here) after years of procrastination and a giant fear of dentists. I had numerous cavities filled and a root canal. I did not experience any pain at all during any procedure. I know a root canal without pain sounds unbelievable, but it's true. Dr. Latif is a phenomenal dentist and a really nice guy.

About Hygienist: All of the hygienists there are awesome. They are the perfect complement to Dr. Latif and have also made me feel very comfortable during my numerous visits to the office.

I have been a patient of Dr. Latif's for about six months and It just keeps getting better every visit. He has done extensive work for me and I can not thank or commend he and his staff enough. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better - it did! During my most recent visit he performed a root canal and "permanent "crown procedure all in one visit - and all pain free. He is the very first in Ohio using this cutting edge technology. There is no temporary crown to deal with, no irritating impressions, and ZERO pain. The new technology he and his staff have mastered is the first of its kind here in Ohio and one of only a very few in the United States to use it. It is called 4 D 4 (I think) , but in essence what it is - is an in office milling machine that captures an image of the tooth from a cad/cam 3D camera and then Dr.Latif uses that image as a platform to build the crown right in front of you . He sends this data to a milling machine which is located in his office and the machine then mills a "permanent " custom crown. It is unbelievable. They have given me a smile of I am not ashamed of! Thank-you all

I have been terrified of dentists my whole life - until I saw Dr. Latif yesterday. I was, hands down, the best experience I have ever had. The customer service, starting with my first call in, is exceptional. When you get there, the facility is great & everyone makes you feel at ease. And the actual work by Dr Latif - I had chipped off a huge piece of a tooth - was completely pain & stree free. Also, he used cutting edge technology to take care of the problem in one visit - something that usually would have taken 2 or 3 visits. I absolutely would recomend Dr Latif & his staff to anyone...I'm going to make sure to get my daughter in ASAP.

Patient Review 92:

Dr Latif was recommended to me by a friend, and going to him has probably been the best decision I've made since my move here from Chicago almost a year ago.

When I was in Chicago, i went to one of the highest ranged Dentists in the area, and I thought they were great until I visited Dr Sam Latif's office. After one of the Hygienist was cleaning my teeth, she noticed something on the X-ray and pointed it out to Dr Latif. Turned out, I had my first cavity under one of the sealants on my molars. The cavity was deep, therefore it was most likely there for my previous dentist to find, however they did not. I was incredibly nervous about having my tooth drilled for the first time, but it wasn't painful at all and Dr Latif did not even have to use novocaine! I was amazed.

Since my first visit, I have had 3 follow-ups b/c Dr Latif is currently helping me to straightening my bottom teeth, and each time I have had a great experience; the entire staff is amazing.

Not only is the staff amazing and the treatment painless... each dental chair has a flat screen tv to watch while you're being treated:)

About Hygienist: I've met each staff member, and they are nothing but nice and accommodating. Appointments typically begin at 8:30 each day, but this does not work with my schedule; they've been extremely helpful to fit me in just a bit earlier so I can make it to work on time. I absolutely love this place!

I would like to start by complimenting the entire staff at Dr. Latiff's practice. Sandy is the first person you speak to she is very pleasantt and helpful. Darlene who has been with Dr. Latiff for over 20 years is an absolute pleasure. From the moment I arrived she was pleasant, funny accomodating and made me feel very much at ease. Faith, the Dental Hygentist is very nice as well. This group is like a family, I never thought I would say I enjoy "going to the dentist". That said they are very professional as well.

My inital experience with Dr. Latiff was through my son. He was in a lot of pain and needed his tooth extracted I stopped in without an appointment and they took care of him immediately, my son told me on the way home it was a painless experience. This came from a kid who absolutely disliked going to the dentist. Based on his input my entire family switched to Dr. Latiff (after being with our family dntist for several years) This was one of the best decisions I have ever made.I have had many serious problems with my teeth for decades with no real solution from any dentist they always put a "bandaid" on the problem. Dr. Latiff came up with a treatment plan to address these issues and got started right away.

I will be brief, Dr Latif is simply the best in Central Ohio, I am grateful for his wonderful chair side manner and his unparalleled knowledge of dentistry,

He recently did full mouth Re-hab as he called it, Extractions, several roots canals, three implants, gum surgery to make my teeth longer , since I wore them down .I was amazed how little pain I had. all was done by him in his office. I did not have to travel from one specialist to another as my previous dentists want me to. which i hated to in the first place.

he is gifted with his hands, he gave me my smile back, My smile is on his web ,the man with worn down teeth and mustache ,I no longer hide my smile, Thanks to all of his wonderful staff, first class. will recommend him to all of my family and friends,

Dr latif and I talked for years about me getting veneers, however he put no pressure on me throughout those years as I was waiting for the right time.

My wife and I have been going to Dr. Latif for about two months ( I sent her first because I have the dreaded dental phobia). Just the thought about the possibility of needing to see a dentist stressed me out! The result was I lived with constant dental problems the last 10 or so years because of my fear of going to the dentist. Boy, I wish I had found Dr. Latif sooner. I saw this rating site and was skeptical. I was so wrong. He does live up to the standards that are expressed on this web site and " HE REALLY DOES PUT THE PATIENT FIRST AND HE IS AN ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC DENTIST ". My total experience under his care has been phenomenal - painless and anxiety free. I highly recommend him to "anyone -especially those that have any dental phobia whatsover ", but I caution - if you become a patient of his and have to relocate out of Columbus - I bet you will make the commute back and forth to Columbus to stay under his care. The staff he has assembled is also impressive, first class all the way. They are an extension of his priorties and values of putting the patients needs and care first. Thank-you all!

We are the Person family who haved moved over from England. Obviously we had to set ourselves up with everything from new doctors,schools,opticians and dentists. Dr.Latif was recommended to us and has been one hell of a good one.. He took great care with the whole family. We have 2 children Oliver 9 and Harriet 7. Oliver needed treatment and as child was quite nervous. He came out with a smile on his face and was amazed with the care he got. He said Dr.Latif was very gentle and he didn't feel a thing after having a couple of fillings!!! I was taken back by it all. I felt very relaxed and felt very comfortable in the hands of our new Dentist. He was caring and gentle...My husband Graham felt the same. Although dreading his first visit for a new crown came out feeling confident about going back...Our daughter Harriet didn't have treatment but is more than happy about visiting the dentist again... You really do have truly amazing staff. They have all been very friendly and made us feel comfortable about being part of your practice. For us moving from Engand it was a great worry in finding the right people who you can honestly trust... We definately found this with you. Thank you so much for taking us all on as your new patients..

Jan.10,2008 was my appt. Dr. Latif fit me in because I chipped a large portion of my tooth (molar) off and was very concerned about the big "hole" that I could feel with my tongue. Once again, Dr. Latiff repaired the tooth with NO PAIN--YES, 100% pain free from start to finish. He also found a couple deep cavities and filled those without me feeling a thing! I can't stress enough about how much talent Dr.Latif has been blessed with !!! He is gentle, kind, truly cares about the patient and does fantastic work to perfection. Dr. Latif has excellent communication during procedures, an outstanding staff and a wonderful environment to be a part of. I am committed to Dr. Latif for life with no more fears of dentists or pain. I have passed his name onto everyone that i know and i hope that you will too after experiencing what Dr.Latif has to offer!

Very technically skilled, Dr. Latif has filled multiple deep fillings for me with very little pain. He was willing to talk to me on my level of intelligence and explained the situation and procedures as best he could. He also does not use mercury/silver amalgam fillings and thus has lots of experience applying composite fillings. It was apparent that he cared deeply about my comfort, and he administered novocaine almost painlessly on all occasions(which I appreciated since I hate needles and have experienced how much a badly placed needle in the mouth can hurt). His work has held up well despite several of the fillings being very deep.

The Best !!!

I've been going to Dr. Latif for 20 years now, and am thoroughly pleased with his work. All of my life I had been embarassed about my teeth (poor dental care on my part growing up), but with Sami's care I'm now happy and confident with my smile.

Sami is always up on the latest technology and methods, and has every new piece of equipment available to dentists. His work on me has always been painless, even through some fairly major workings on my teeth. He has an actual concern about you and your teeth, and guarantees all of his work.

His staff and assistants are all very knowledgeable, friendly and top notch.

I would highly recommend Dr. Latif for any of your dental needs.

First of all, I am the biggest baby when it comes to teeth pain but Dr. Latif is very sensitive to that and always makes sure that I'm not in pain. The entire staff is very friendly and professional and they make you feel at ease.

I wanted my right front tooth veneered so I found very favorable reviews of Dr. Latif on the internet and took a chance. He definitely lives up to the reviews. So I ended up with in office teeth whitening and a veneer on my front tooth. I'm very happy with the results. One more thing, he also takes the time to make sure the veneer matches your other teeth and looks natural.

Patient Review 106:

I could not more highly recommend Dr. Latif and his staff. He transformed my smile with only four veneers. Now my entire mouth looks white and my teeth look straight, and there is nothing that I would change about my smile. The veneers are so perfect that only my closest friends and family noticed that I had them put on, and all the people who have noticed have given me rave reviews. Dr. Latif and his staff also went out of their way to make the experience as painless for me as possible - shots that you don't even feel, crafting me temporary veneers because I was going on vacation before the permanent veneers would be ready, and always being extremely considerate. I have also visited Dr. Latif for two cleanings, both of which were similarly pleasant experiences. The work is great, the staff is skilled and friendly, and the prices are reasonable. I would never go to another dentist.

Treatment Length with Dr. Latif: 6 months.

My daughter found Dr. Latif for me she narrowed her search down to three dentists and after visiting their offices, chose Dr. Latif and his staff. What a fortunate choice for me. Dr. Latif did a full mouth rehabilitation for me. Im so happy. I can smile
