    He said I didn't need a deep cleaning - others (and insurance) said otherwise.
    Jon D.

    I always suspected this dentist was not all he appears to be, but I couldn't prove it until now. He has too many positive reviews for the area, the place is a hole in the wall in one of the worst areas of Anaheim (it's next door to a $100 jack shack called lol massage and a 7-11) with outdated equipment and a staff that you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley. The best way to describe one of them is a walking refrigerator on cans. I had seen him in the past, several years ago, and he didn't do a great job. I regarded him as being quick and too gentle about it. Germs are realistic, they hide in places that he doesn't want to go. My regular hygienist is digging holes, going to town with the ultrasonic scaler, while this guy's like 'meh'. But I had an approval for a deep cleaning and wanted to see if he would do it. Despite the reviews leading you to think he's God's gift to west Anaheim, I was able to see him the next morning. He checked out my insurance, took a few x-rays, some pictures, didn't perform a routine gum measurement aka "periodontal charting" (they're mostly 5's and 6's, anything over a 3 is bad), and said "You don't need a deep cleaning, goodbye". But what he didn't know is that my other dentist already assessed my condition as qualifying for not only a scaling/root planing (aka a deep cleaning), but also an approval for cleanings every three months for the next year. And this is from caloptima, our state's public insurance. Not easy to get an approval because of the cost. My current condition is pretty bad. I had a regular cleaning about two months ago and due to some setbacks, had to postpone. My gums will not stop bleeding after flossing and trying to build tolerance, there's always a nasty taste in my mouth and it feels pretty rotten. He doesn't know about this because he didn't ask. Our conversation was minimal. My hunch: A lot of these reviews are fakes, the pictures are inflated and/or he discriminates based on what insurance the patient has, and/or he takes easy jobs. In either case, he decided I wasn't worth his time and cut me loose. There's a joke floating around that "nobody wants to work anymore" but in his case, it's actually true. The least amount of work for the most money, end result being an antiquated notion. The other thing that irritated me is their resident lunkhead called me two hours before my appointment, like a babysitter or something. Attached are the notes from my hygienist that I've been seeing since 2010 (for those keeping notes, that's 14 years and counting). These records are the assessment along with the approval from caloptima.

    The best dental care I have ever experienced! Dr. Yong and his courteous and friendly staff made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. The professionalism and friendliness of the whole team is outstanding. I've been going to them for a complicated process (implants/crowns) and they have been extremely patient and supportive.Every visit is like visiting friends. I couldn't be happier with the results. This is my Dental Team Forever !! Thank You....James

    Even sent me this High-resolution X ray minutes after leaving the office. Thanks!

    After informing Stephanie on a Wendesday that my Medi-Cal approval was pending, she called me on Sunday (a Sunday!) while driving which was good timing, and after helping me confirm my Medi Cal is ready she set an appointment for me. Considering I probably would have taken a few more days to call back in to make an appointment she helped me get to the Dr. much sooner! When I went in for my appointment the ladies there were all kind and helpful. Dr. Yung cares for his patients by taking his time to discuss future treatment and recommendations, I felt comfortable there and the cleaning was proper. Thanks to everyone at Cal Dental. Best wishes. -Jose Carlos S.

I was being verbally told about more than $3,000 worth of dental work. I was never provided a written treatment plan. I repeatedly explained that I am a low-income single mother and simply could not afford thousands of dollars in treatment. Instead of respecting my answer, she continued pushing financing and credit and even asking whether I had a husband or partner who could help me pay. Then, after making me feel completely humiliated about what I could and could not afford, she had the audacity to point out that I still had my cleaning because "it's free," emphasizing the one thing I could afford, as though I needed to be reminded of my financial situation. I was visibly upset and other employees could clearly see what was happening. Instead of anyone stepping in, they stayed back and watched the interaction unfold. I cannot speak to what they were thinking but the fact that nobody intervened while a patient was obviously distressed made the entire environment even more uncomfortable. And here is the most concerning part: I got a second opinion. What your office verbally presented to me as more than $3,000 in dental work including removing a root and filling a cavity turned out to be a broken filling. So please do not reduce my experience to your employee simply "coming across as pushy." I was pressured about money after repeatedly saying no, questioned about finding a partner to help pay, embarrassed about receiving a "free" cleaning, and verbally presented with thousands of dollars in dental treatment that another dentist subsequently told me I did not need as it had been represented. Patients deserve to feel safe at a dental office not pressured, humiliated, or frightened into finding a way to pay for thousands of dollars of treatment.

Everyone is consistently professional, kind, and welcoming, and the quality of care is excellent. Over the years, I've completed Invisalign and had my wisdom teeth removed through their office. When Dr. Devani discovered that one of my teeth had a dead nerve, he referred me to an excellent endodontist for a root canal. The procedure and recovery went smoothly, and Dr. Devani continued helping me afterward with the appearance of the tooth. Michelle has often been my dental hygienist, and she is wonderful. She is thorough with my X-rays, cleanings, and checking the health of my teeth and gums. She is also incredibly friendly and sweet, which always makes appointments more comfortable. Dr. Devani is knowledgeable, patient, and always takes the time to explain everything clearly. I also think it speaks volumes that so many members of his team have remained with the practice throughout the seven years I've been a patient. I even recommended him to my partner, who never enjoyed going to the dentist or felt motivated to attend regular checkups. Premier Smiles completely changed his perspective! I genuinely trust Dr. Devani and his team and will continue recommending Premier Smiles Dentistry to my friends and family.

Since he…read moreleft, I can't even process what just happened during my visit by the new dentist, I felt as though I was being scammed. I came in for a regular cleaning and based off looking at some Live Photos of my teeth, the dentist said I needed a deep cleaning for $600! No periodontal chart, no examining the xrays! (There was just some stains and some build up). He was asking me a ton of questions like he was trying to find a "gotcha" answer, and use that to justify a deep cleaning. "Do you smoke, do you drink, do you take supplements?" Yadi yadi ya. I have had a deep cleaning before and I was never asked these many questions (Like I was being interrogated). Previous dentist would just look at the xray and pockets to make an objective decisions. He was also acting like he was super concerned about my teeth and that this was devastating for me (I give the acting a 7/10, it was pretty decent). He then said he will see what he can do and drop some services during the deep cleaning and hook me for $160 for the deep cleaning. I walked out and talked to two different dentists/hygienist for a 2nd opinion and they said I definitely did not need a deep cleaning! The other dental office did a regular cleaning, removed the stains and build up and I was good to go. This place is so shady and unethical and needs to be reported to the BBB if you fell victim to one of their upsales. Please do not fall for their trap and seek second opinions.

The crown didn't fit properly and was not sealed close to my gums. New dentist informed me 4 canals should've been cleaned not 3, as 1 was missed when new dentist went in to retreat. I suppose my hygiene took part but the crown should've been sealed properly too.

Starting with a consultation, Dr. Kang's knowledge and professionalism was immediately apparent, and gave me the confidence to select him for what could be a problematic implant removal and replacement. Dr. Kang took a strong interest in my case and even contacted the implant manufacturer for my specific type of implant, who volunteered whatever technical assistance may be required to remove the damaged fixture. Within a few weeks I had an appointment and Dr. Kang went to work. After a reasonable amount of time and considering this was a difficult situation, he was able to remove the damaged implant and prepare the gum for a new crown, using state-of-the-art electronic measuring equipment. Two weeks later he installed my new crown which fit and functioned perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better result in what I previously thought might be a hopeless situation.
