Never have I thought to send flowers to my dentist, but that's exactly how I felt when I left Dr. Bo's chair after he repaired my chipped tooth. Staying away from sticky candy from now on! Thanks, Dr. Bo for giving me back my smile. read more

So I've been coming here for over 30 years. I don't even live nearby anymore, but worth the trip. I started first w/ Dr. Stephen Bo and now his son David. It's a great outfit with great people all around - doctors, hygienists, and front desk. read more

I'm not too picky about my dentist, but my wife is. This place is world class multigenerational dentistry. Sitting in the lobby chatting with folks. Patient exclaimed that she's been coming. The entire history of the practice was only on her second hygienist. A dentist can retain their staff like that Knows how to treat their patient and customers as well. We also enjoyed that they have a fully integrated practice with our oral surgeons that are right next-door.. read more

Doctor Steve and Doctor David are the Michaelangelo of Molars, the DaVinci of dentistry! Need I say more? I have been going for many years and find their staff highly professional, the quality of care exceptional. No high pressure for "extras", just honest work done very well. These guys are pros and you should see for yourself read more

This office is simply the best! I've been going to them for over 20 years and the service is always excellent. I actually look forward to going to the dentist thanks to the very talented doctors and hygienists at Bo Family Dentistry. read more

I think another review for Dr. Bo and his practice is in order. If you care about your dentition and want a dentistry practice that gets the job done, Dr. Bo is your man. Facts: * The dentist office is located inside a building that is filled with other dentistry and orthodontics practices. * Everybody, from Melanie at the front desk to the dental hygienists to both Dr. Bos (father and son) is friendly, knowledgable and helpful. * Wait times are usually not that long. * Dr. Bo, the father, is really funny and personable and helps you to feel at ease. His son is also a cool guy and, on some days, you'll see both of them there. * They'll give you a goody bag of floss, a toothbrush and a traveler's size toothpaste, among other things at the end of your visit (assuming you're there for a general checkup/cleaning) * They accept both health insurance as well as payment out-of-pocket. Overall, I highly recommend them. As long as Dr. Bo and his practice is around, I know where to go for my teeth to be in competent hands. 5 stars all the way read more

See all

I've been going to Dr. Bo for around 30 years. It has always been the best experience I could have at the dentist. All consultations are done as if I were a family member. Everyone in the office is fantastic!! read more

I've been with Dr. Bo's office almost since day one of his practice. My teeth were in very bad shape. He made sure I was at ease and has done excellent work throughout the years. My hygienists, both Beth, my first hygienist and Linda my current have been excellent. The office staff is always friendly and helpful. They make you feel like family. read more

Half of my back molar had broken on Friday when they were closed. So I left a message. They called back first thing on Monday and said they could take me in as soon as I could get there. That was such a fast response and so helpful. The care was perfect and pleasant. My experience with bow family dentistry is always positive. My family has been going there for 30 years and we are always well taken care of. read more

I drive all the way from South San Jose twice a year for cleanings with Christie or Mylan. These hygienist are thorough, without causing pain at all. Extremely knowledgeable and super friendly. When I need any procedure done my OG, Dr. Steven Bo, or Dr. David Bo who followed in his footsteps; and Dr. Nina are literally simply the best! They are the best at doing crowns, fixing problems, fillings, you name it. Whatever your issue is, you don't feel any pain they know what they are doing, and I will never go anywhere else. All are simply Wonderful! I found Dr. Steven Bo when I was 30, I am now 65 years old. All of my children from ages 2 1/2 to now in adulthood still see Dr.Steven Bo, Dr. David Bo, and Dr. Nina. Everyone is extremely respectful and kind. Also with Dr. Nina, a brown woman of color, it has been such a joy to see her in the office since we're also people of color who are Af. Am. You can never go wrong with whoever you get. I've always admired the fact that Dr. Bo over the years has brought in young dentists, from different ethnic backgrounds and cultures and now they have Dr. Nina, a woman. I love it! Dr. David Bo, his son, who is so incredible also is licensed to do Invisalign, and they offer many other services, such as teeth whitening, veneers and have fixed my chipped front teeth perfectly at least two occasions. The staff in the front office is amazing. They reflect all of the doctors. Not only does my immediate family go to Bo Dentistry but my entire sisters family and my husband's sister's family, his mother and my mother before her passing all have gone there! We all trusted Dr. Bo and his dentistry immensely. His referrals are always spot on if anything more is needed. He has the right connections if you need a root canal, or oral surgery. I love Dr. Bo, his son and Dr. Nina, including the entire staff. I get no pain when I go to the dentist. I have no anxiety, no anxiousness whatsoever. If you do, this is where you should go and I drive all the way from San Jose up to Sunnyvale for my dentist's! read more

Good services, unfortunately, I had the first appointment in the morning. Other than the late start, perfect.

I have been coming to this office for 20 years. They are professional, competent, and kind. They offer options without pushing, and deal with my minor dental phobias with ease. read more

We have been going to Dr. Bo for years. Finally got around writing a review. Dr. Steven and David Bo always do a good job, big or small. They always give different options for big ticket items and will not push for the most expensive option. They also send out for other specialists when they feel the other specialists can do a better job. It is hard to find a dentist with skills and integrity. Thanks Dr. Steven and David Bo. read more

Bo Family Dentist has wonderful Doctors and staff. They are always caring towards patient needs whether it is a scheduling constraint, allergies, billing, insurance, or questions regarding procedures. The first time I saw Dr. Bo I needed an old crown put back on. He squeezed me in and took care of my right away. I have gladly referred my friends and family to him. read more

After spending a lot of time searching for a dentist by looking through Bay Area Consumer's Checkbook, reading online reviews, and calling dental offices, I finally decided to go to Dr. Bo's office. ((I have had some really bad dentists in the past, which might explain why I did so much research. I had a dentist once who somehow accidentally cut the entire inside of my cheek open and I had to get stitches to stop the bleeding. He then blamed me for it saying that my mouth was to small! It's not like I have an abnormally small mouth!! Seriously, WTF!)) However, unlike my past dentists, Dr. Bo and his staff are wonderful. I have been there twice so far, once for a cleaning and once for a filling. His dental assistants are very nice and they actually took the time to read my medical history and discuss my past bad experiences at the dentist. When I had my filling, the dental assistant even held my hand during the injection part, because she knew I was nervous! Dr. Bo is very gentle and fast. He took out and old filling that had been done poorly and replaced it, all in under 30 minutes! I was initially concerned about the quality of his work because he works extremely fast. However, my new filling is much better than the old one. Also, the office assistants are friendly and competent. They were able to answer all of my insurance questions in a confident manner. I actually had a great experience at the dentist, thanks to Dr. Bo and his staff! I will definitely go back here in the future. P.S. This is his website: http://www.sbodds.com/ Time to eat more candy! read more

Really there needs to be 6 stars for the entire team at Dr. Bo's office. We met because I had a dental emergency, and I am now a lifer. I have had almost every service on the dental menu in my 12+ years as a patient. Yes - I am THAT one who needs meds for a cleaning, I have scheduled/rescheduled and cancelled countless times and encountered too many insurance snafu's to name because I change jobs constantly hopping from one startup to the next. Nancy has put up with my wallet full of expired insurance cards for years. Yet They are all patient and kind with me through it all. Dr. Bo is a strange mix of a young, hip Marcus Welby MD. He cares enough to tell me when something won't work and YES this will hurt (but he has something to help that too) so I am not shocked with anything unexpected. Thanks for closing the gap in my front teeth (even when I thought it was fine).... I finally got a boyfriend!! read more

I spent so much time on the Yelp.com, going over all the reviews from most Doctors with 4+ stars. Finally, I decided to try Dr. Bo office. Why? just because many people mentioned: Dr. Bo's approach is ...if ain't broken, don't fix it !! I am very happy with my decision. I have not use my Dental Budget for this year, so, I really need to use the budget for this year. Melanie was so kind. She really went beyond the normal schedule to fit me into their busy year end schedule. My experience: - Melanine is so kind on both phone and person. - Dr. Bo: very professional. He did told me the same thing: if ain't broken, don't fix it !! I was busy and did not have time to go to Dentist in 2 years, but, after the full mount X-ray. Dr. confirmed there is nothing need to be done with my teeth except for regular cleaning. Wow!!! I like it. - Hygienist: Kisti, she is super kind, super gentle. She did ther cleaning for my bottom half teeth on the same date. Even they are fully book for this year, and I told her about my insurance situation that I need to use up the budget for 2011. She agreed to help. So, she is going to come in to the office on her OFF date to do the cleaning for my upper half on next Monday. Again, she will come to work on her off date just to help me out !!! Where can you find someone like that? Overall, it is very good so far. I strongly recommend this office to anyone. read more

Before we get to Dr. Bo, let's talk about Melanie at the front office.... I don't think she has ever called out sick. She is super organized, friendly and accommodating! She is always smiling and there is never a problem on her end. Now, to Dr. BO..... At first I must admit, I thought he was huffing the Nitrous tank... I've never seen a doctor, let alone a dentist in such a good mood consistently! He takes the fear out of seeing the dentist and is one of the most complimentary persons I've encountered. He is thorough, attentive and his positive attitude is infectious! read more

I've returned to Bo Family Dentistry twice a year every year since they were recommended to me almost 30 years ago. First DDS Steven Bo, and now his son David is part of the practice. Both Bo's and the Dental Hygienists and assistants are very professional, personable and make one feel as expected and welcome as one can when going to the dentist. I am glad Dr. Steven was recommended to me so long ago and I have never felt the need to go elsewhere unless, of course, they had to recommend a different type of expertise to provide a needed procedure. I don't think you can go wrong if you select Bo Family Dentistry for you and your family. read more

Great place, I have been coming to see Dr. Bo since I was in my teens. Overall great guy and the rest of his staff is just as amazing. read more

Bo Family Dentistry - General Dentistry Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Our last dentist was horrible and my husband and I have avoided the dentist for 18 months. We were recommended to visit Dr. Bo by my husband's aunt. I have just finished my check up with Dr. David Bo, he was fantastic and so was his assistant Vanessa. Vanessa took my x-rays and made sure I was comfortable. Dr. Bo was kind and efficient in his work checking my teeth. His is highly skilled and professional. I am looking forward to returning to this office in the future for dental cleanings and any other dental work needed. I highly recommend this office if you are looking for a dentist. read more

Love this practice. From the front desk to the chair they are world-class. Appointments run on time. Dr. Bo remembers details from months before and engages with you. His team is friendly and yet very professional. I am a huge fan of this practice so much so I get cleanings 4x per year vs. the 2x that my insurance pays for. read more

When I moved to San Francisco 7 years ago, there was one Dr. I wasn't giving up in the south bay: Dr. Bo (the elder in the practice). He is kind, helpful, smart and always cognizant of the fact that I don't have dental insurance -- he makes conservative yet reasonable decisions based on this fact. My hygienist Beth is also fantastic-gentle but gets the job done and has a great personality. I highly recommend them! read more

i have been coming to see Dr Bo since i was 13 (27 years!!) and I am not a lover of the dental world! Dr Bo is awesome and I just love him. Very patient and kind. i totally recommend him! he is the only one that does my dental work (i have issues) so cant comment on the rest of his team but seems like they are good, from others that have commented. read more

Bo Family Dentistry - "The Door" - General Dentistry Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Don't go! I got there one hour early. After the appointment time passed, they kept me waiting another 40 minutes, actually even more. Just before exam, they told me they don't have time to do regular cleaning which I requested during phone call and face to face. A regular cleaning won't last more than 60 minutes. They just told me I need pay $200+ out of pocket to do some "special" cleaning. Isn't regular cleaning paid in my that visit? Then the woman and Dr. Bo ( I guess ) left for lunch when I sat in my car. Very unfaithful, very greedy practice. I strongly recommend any potential a "DON'T GO". read more

My husband & I have been going here for 4 years now. Dr.Bo is excellent, never does anything to your teeth unless it is absolutely necessary :). Once,he even filled a cavity for me, free of cost, saying that procedure was not covered by insurance. Highly recommended. I do not recommend Dr.Pham (same office), he once recommended a cavity filling which seemed unnecessary. If you have issues with your teeth, ask specifically for Dr.Bo. read more

Dr. Bo is hands down the friendliest and most gentle dentist I've ever experienced. To this day, he is the only dentist that can administer a Novocain shot without making me cry (I'm very needle averse). Not only is Dr. Bo and his staff considerate towards their patients' but they're extremely honest about dental care needs. I had been told by a previous dentist that I needed a crown to repair a cracked tooth and it would cost a great deal since I did not have dental benefits at the time. Fortunately, I received a second opinion from Dr. Bo, who assured me a crown was not necessary, and I haven't seen another dentist since. I highly recommend Dr. Bo. read more

So lucky am I to have found Dr. and his team! Gotta rate their service as one of the best I've ever experienced. I just moved from L.A., so finding excellent doctors for all sorts of things have been quite a daunting task. The first dentist I tried out in San Jose was a butt-clenching experience - so painful! So, I put the task on Yelp in search of one great dentist! It didn't take me too long before Dr. Bo appeared with such nice compliments from his clients. Melanie took my appt, and she was so nice over the phone. When we met, it was nice to know she's the same in person! The receptionist (red-haired lady, sorry i didn't get her name) was friendly. They had a good assortment of magazines to read whilst I waited. Kristi, the hygenist, was super-friendly and really put me at ease, and her techniques were painless! Just had a cleaning and a brief exam. Dr. Bo's approach is ...if ain't broken, don't fix it. I love him already. He pointed out a few concerns and took the time to explain, but did not scare me into any unncessary procedures. For now, I'm golden! See him in 6 months! p.s. Most dentist offices give u a small paper bag with a generic toothbrush and sampler tube of toothpaste. This office hooked it up with a travel bag filled with a full size bottle of scope, full size toothpaste, and an Oral B toothbrush! Baller Status! Now, there's really no reason why we can't keep up with our oral hygiene anywhere we go! read more

I really like this place (well, as much as you can like the dentist!) Dr David Bo was great - personable and knowledgable. The dental hygienist I saw for a cleaning (Ellie, I think) was super nice, did an excellent job, and even let me stay for a back-to-back, when the patient after me cancelled (so that I didn't have to come back for a second appointment a week later) which saved me time and I really appreciated. They also give a discount if you pay up front (I don't have dental insurance) which is nice! They use lots of new technology and seem really up to date (not old antiquated junk) and I really felt like they had no interest in convincing me to do anything besides what was necessary. i.e. No guilting in to more than you actually need. I've found my regular dentist :-) read more

Dr. Bo is an excellent dentist. He does not recommend anything you don't need. His office stuff is also very nice. The best dental hygienist is Linda. Definitely recommend her. If you have a chance to see a doctor in his office, try to see Dr, Bo himself. He has other 2 doctors on his staff. read more

Dr. Bo has been my dentist since I had my braces removed which was over 20 years ago. I have been in and out of the South Bay many times and always come back to him and his office. I have a 3/4 crown that he put on when I was 17 that is still on and has never given me problems (knock on wood) I even had a dentist in New York make a similar 3/4 style based on the success of Dr. Bo's work. If one was in need of dental work in the South Bay I would not recommend anyone other than Dr. Bo. read more

I've been going to Dr. Bo for over fifteen years. Everyone in his office is professional. My appointments are always on time. He makes sure his patients are satisfied with the quality of his work. Highly recommend. read more

Yup! Dr. Bo is the real deal. I went back for my 6-mos appt and he and his staff are as great as ever! Kind of stinks that I only need to go to the dentist only every 6-mos - this is one Dr. I'd gladly see every month if I could! He's so professional but so warm at the same time and his staff is so attentive and make you feel so comfortable. He's fixing a bad (very bad) crown that I had after what I now believe to be an unneeded root canal. He promised that even my temporary crown would look better than what I had - and he was right! I'm so fortunate to have found such a great dentist and I would recommend anyone who was looking for a Dr. who is caring, professional and highly skilled to make Dr. Bo a visit!!! read more

My Wife and I have been going to Dr. Bo for 10+ years and never had a bad experience. Unfortunately I've had a lot of work done from cleanings to fillings and crowns. Not only is Dr Bo great, all the other Dentists and support staff are the best too. Thanks for always being there for us. read more

My husband and I get our dental work and maintenance here at Dr. Bo's. He's an excellent dentist and his staff are all very nice. HIghly recommended. :) read more

I've been seeing Dr. Bo's since 1995 and I've always known him to be an exemplary dentist. He's funny and engaging and overall he's just very skilled at the kinds of things you might see a dentist for. read more

I wanted to go to this dentist office. I called four times. Twice last year, and twice this year. The same thing as last year, the first call you call in, you will be put to an advertisement without telling you how long to wait. I felt sad about this. If your office do not welcome new patients with accent. I hope I had known it in advance. Then I called in directly told her my thoughts that I felt sorry they do not welcome me, so I decide to not go there, she only responded with" ok." Without any explains. :( read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Bo for nearly 30 years. Started my family of 5 children in the 80's and brought all of them to him. Moved to Central Valley in 92 and we opted to make the 1 hour drive as the kids were comfortable with him and their hygienist. I have 2 kids that now Live in Sac , one that attends college in Tennessee another in SF and we continue to schedule our visits with his office. Service...OUTSTANDING !!! Proffesionalism and Comfort are just great. The office staff, reminders etc are great... There have been a few times when we needed things done that the referral process was spot on... Including an Easter Sunday tooth ache (at work in sunnyvale) that was a 9 outa 10 on the tooth ache scale... Made the call to Dr Bo at 10:15 am.. Heard back from referred Dentist (Dr Sunil) at 10:20 and by 10:45 I was in the chair and a root canal completed within the hour. read more

Steven Bo has been my dentist for 12 years. I like him and his office staff. I particularly like that he does not push or recommend unnecessary procedures, a complaint I hear from many friends about their dentists. read more

My wife and I have been seeing Steven Bo for over 40 years. I think he was barely out of school and had opened his current office just shortly thereafter. HE IS EXCELLENT! A better dentist you will never find! No only has he provided excellent dental service over all these years, but he went one step further with us when we suffered from a total financial loss. Some services he did no charge us for them. He also worked out very reasonable payments for other needs we had. So he is not only a great dentist but he is also a great human being! read more
