If you are thinking about getting braces... do it! (The sooner the better). If you are thinking about doing it at Bloom... definitely do it! Currently have braces and have been examined by Dr. Vu monthly for readjustments and tightening. The staff has been super nice and the whole process has been going well so far! It's only been 3 months since I had my braces in and my teeth are looking much straighter! I can't recommend Dr. Vu and Bloom enough! read more

I have been eagerly anticipating the moment to share my transformative experience with Dr. Vu, and now that I've witnessed a remarkable change in my smile, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for her unparalleled expertise. Dr. Vu is an extraordinary orthodontist who dedicates her time to truly listen to her patients' concerns and offers thoughtful, tailored advice. This collaborative approach creates a nurturing environment, enabling the development of a personalized treatment plan that directly addresses individual needs. Initially, my primary concern was the noticeable lack of symmetry in my teeth, which undermined both my appearance and confidence. I had undergone orthodontic treatment with another orthodontist previously, but I felt like my smile wasn't truly my own. When I raised concerns about the asymmetry of my teeth, my former orthodontist dismissed my worries, assuring me that my teeth were properly aligned and that no further adjustments were necessary. As someone without expertise in the field, I took her word for it, even though I was not satisfied with my smile. To add to my frustration, I faced a setback when my retainers were delayed due to scheduling conflicts, causing my teeth to revert to their original position prior to braces. As four years passed by, my dissatisfaction with my smile only grew, prompting me to consider re-treatment, where I discovered Dr. Vu. The glowing reviews on Yelp impressed me, so I made an appointment to see her. During my initial visit with Dr. Vu, I sought a consultation driven by my dissatisfaction with my smile. Upon arriving at her office, I was warmly welcomed by the patient coordinator and orthodontic assistants, whose friendliness immediately set a positive tone. Everyone in the office radiated genuine kindness, making it easy for me to communicate my concerns. One of the aspects that initially attracted me to this practice was its proximity to my school, which made scheduling appointments convenient. Additionally, the soothing decor of the Garden Grove location captivated me; the vibrant colors and inviting atmosphere create a calming environment, and the office itself is impeccably clean and well-organized. Thankfully, I received fantastic news that my insurance company approved coverage for a portion of the braces expenses, which was a tremendous relief. This development allowed me to manage my payments conveniently through my Health Savings Account (HSA), making the financial aspect of this journey far more manageable. Regarding my treatment, I had lingering concerns about my gummy smile. Dr. Vu thoughtfully explained how she could address this issue through mechanical manipulation, a novel approach I had not encountered before. Intrigued, I was eager to explore this option, especially since I was not inclined to pursue Botox as a solution. This comprehensive and considerate approach to orthodontics left me feeling optimistic and excited about my journey ahead. Now that I have my braces off, I notice a drastic difference in my overall smile and appearance, especially with my gums. I literally cannot stop smiling and laughing. Thank you so much, Dr. Vu and the Bloom Smiles team! You have made such a significant difference in my confidence, and I can't thank you enough! read more

I and my sister have visited Dr. Vu's both offices in Garden Grove and Long Beach and we love everything from care quality to office experience. We have different types of braces (mine is invisalign and my sister has traditional braces). Dr. Vu and her staff have been providing us the best care possible. She cares very much about the treatment quality until achieving the best result. The staff also accommodate you with every appointment, sending reminders days before and making sure your next appointment is as smooth as possible.

I came to bloom studios for Inbrace as Dr. vu is one of the few providers in the area who offer this service! I opted for inbrace as I'd been a failed non compliant patient for Invisalign. Dr. Vu and her team were so informative and kind through my year and a half long process. If you're consider inbrace over Invisalign- please choose inbrace! It's only a little uncomfortable the first week, then your moth settles and the rest is a breeze! My process was just as Dr. vu anticipated 18months. Of course every patient is different, but I'm extremely satisfied with the service and thorough work that has been done. 10/10 I recommend!! read more

If you're anything like me--you hate doing things over the phone--then you will love BSS. You can do almost everything online/electronically before you come in for your treatment. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Vu and I already told my friends about her. I was looking for a provider that offered inbrace (braces behind the teeth) and she was one of the few that offered the service . After getting some consults, I choose her because I found her to be professional and knowledgeable about the best treatments for orthodontics. I can tell she keeps herself updated and educated about the newest technology in Orthodontics. I Love Inbrace because no one knew I had braces this whole time unless I told them. I didn't have to explain to everybody why I was getting braces as an adult . This was my 3rd time getting braces and I am happy I went with Inbrace with Dr. Vu. My treatment was done in 9 months and it went smoothly. I saw huge progress within the first weeks and one of my gaps closed. I noticed my headaches and the clicking noise from my jaw disappeared after my bite was aligned and corrected. She is patient and answered any questions I had. It does hurt the first few weeks because your tongue isn't used to braces in the back. I also had a lisp for a couple weeks . But I would still choose Inbrace over traditional braces. Thanks Dr.Vu and congratulations with your new office . It is beautiful and it reflects the quality of your work . read more

Dr Vu is a great orthodontist. I started during covid times and she did a virtual consult and was able to see most of the issues just from pictures I sent. When I did come in, they did a 3D scan for more details and that can predict how my teeth will move with different options. She esitmated 1.5 years but it ended up only being 1 year 3 months. I wasn't able to do invisalign so I had to go with traditional braces. Her staff was easy to work with for appointments and billing. All the assistants did good work with my monthly wire and band changes. Office was always clean. read more

I was referred to Dr. Vu by my sister and was so glad I was. I had braces during my childhood, but stopped wearing my retainers so my teeth shifted. Dr. Vu understood my concerns and was very patient during the whole process. I couldn't be more than happy with my results. Everyone on the team is super welcoming and friendly. I would definitely recommend Bloom to all my friends and family. read more

It was my first time visiting Bloom Orthodontics and it was an excellent one. I'm one of those who always get nervous laying on a ortho bed but my experience was far from that. I went in to order a new pair of retainers. First I was greeted with friendly faces who communicated clearly to me. I am afraid of COVID and thankfully the staff is very cautious about COVID making sure to take temperatures before sitting down to wait. Once you walk into the room, you can see they are really sticking to the COVID rules by noticing how spread apart the beds were the chairs. The staff informed me that the tools have been disinfected and explained to me what was going on every step of the way which I really appreciated. I was blown away by how high tech their machines are. No more having to place your teeth into a thick wax in some medal cage instead they used an imaging tool that is done painlessly and with incredible detail. It only took less than a week - over the holidays to receive my retainers and I couldn't be happier about them. read more

This is my first time having braces in my adult life and Dr. Vu made me comfortable throughout the whole journey. She was professional and answered all my questions during my visits and even helped alleviate my concerns during her off hours. I'm proud to say that today is the end of my journey and I couldn't be any happier with the results! I highly recommend a consultation with Dr. Vu if you ever plan on starting your journey to get braces! read more

I had a comprehensive (2 year) Invisalign treatment with Dr. Vu and I couldn't be happier with the result and the entire experience. Dr. Vu was always available and answered all my questions before and during the treatment, and she and her staff were amazing throughout. I love how smooth it all went, without any surprises, particularly financial ones. Even after I got my retainers, I am still having recurring appointments to ensure everything is good, and all of that was included in the initial package. As inconvenient and painful the treatment was, Dr. Vu made it a great experience! read more
