Michael S. Zola, DMD

Dental practices in Westwood often cater to both UCLA-affiliated patients and longtime neighborhood residents, and Michael S. Zola, DMD fits squarely into that pattern. General dentistry remains the core of what they handle, from routine cleanings to fillings, with the kind of consistency that keeps people returning. Crowns, bridges, and basic extractions also appear among the services, suggesting a focus on addressing common concerns without the frills of specialty clinics. The area’s mix of students, faculty, and families means demand for straightforward care stays steady year-round.

The office sits at 1033 Gayley Ave Ste 115, a stretch of Westwood where medical and dental offices cluster near the university’s edge. Parking in this pocket of LA can be competitive, but the location’s walkability from campus makes it accessible for those already in the area. Public feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with a 5.0 rating based on 402 Google reviews—a rarity even in a city where high ratings aren’t uncommon. That kind of response usually signals reliability, though individual experiences will always vary.

Booking an appointment or asking about availability is as simple as calling (310) 208-4036, and the map link makes finding the entrance easier for first-time visitors. Directions are a tap away, which helps when navigating Westwood’s dense blocks. Like most dental offices, the real test comes during the visit—but the numbers suggest many leave satisfied.
