The clinic itself is an all-in-one, one-stop service with very new and modern dental technology, which makes the whole experience smooth and efficient. Dr. Ed is my dentist, and he literally saved my life. I came in with a broken tooth and had already made up my mind to pull it out and do an implant. Instead of rushing into an expensive procedure, he thoroughly examined my tooth, knew exactly what he was doing, and helped me save a lot of money by recommending a tooth crown instead. The treatment was time-saving, painless, and budget-friendly. Honest, professional, and truly caring -- I couldn't ask for more. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a dentist they can truly trust.

They really treat me like family and always ask how my family and I are doing :D ! I went to my 6-month dental cleaning this morning. Dr Kris and Ida thoroughly cleaned my teeth, and Dr Kris noticed that I have a new cavity that had to be filled. Just like before when I had a cavity on a previous dental visit, she numbed me and filled my cavity so effortlessly that I hardly felt a thing. I never feel scared going to her because I know I am in good hands, and she and her staff always go above and beyond for me and all of their clients :D !! It can be hard to get appointments with her because she is so highly sought-after :) !! But if you can get an appointment with her, you'll be so grateful you did :D !!

The office is clean, the equipment seems modern and up to date, and the quality of care was excellent from start to finish. I ended up having all four of my wisdom teeth removed here, and Dr. Ly was incredible throughout the entire process. I was nervous, in pain, and honestly freaking out at times, but she took the time to see me multiple times after the procedure to check on my healing and make sure everything was progressing well. Her patience, professionalism, and genuine concern made a huge difference. I've never been a fan of doctors or dentists, but this experience completely changed my perspective. The staff was also great about communication, confirming appointments, and answering questions along the way. Was it expensive? Sure. Am I a little in debt now? Also sure. But honestly, it was worth every penny. I highly recommend Dr. Ly and her team.

It was only $79 as a package, others were asking $150-350. They also do implants, so I'll be making my appointment for a consultation very soon. I hope their prices are similarly, relatively good.

When rescheduling my appointment due to my puppy not responding well to his neutering surgery (mind…read moreyou, I didn't receive a reminder notification for this appointment either, so I had to call in and inquire to confirm anyway), the VERY RUDE receptionist gave me attitude and hung up before finishing the conversation. What makes it even worse is that my family has been going to this dental office since I was around ten years old, and I'm 27 now. I've stayed with this dentist due to familiarity, but this past year has come with a lot of various challenges which has caused me to 1) be behind on my visits, and 2) had to reschedule my appointments (insurance/FSA card issues, puppy being neutered or sick, etc). So while I do understand the frustration from me rescheduling again, it was HIGHLY unprofessional and I was disgusted by the behavior. I see from other reviews that a lot of others have experienced the same attitude from the receptionists. Upon being hung up on, I let them know I would not be returning and would be looking for a new dental office, despite having been loyal to them for so long. The doctor, however, is very competent! It saddens me that I will be departing from his services. They just need to hire new receptionists who are familiar with how to properly treat clients, despite their frustrations.

HUGE MONEY + INTEGRITY ISSUES!!…read more I sought help from Dr. Chao because my dentist referred me to get a gum graft to solve tooth inflammation and pus. Dr. Chao said he could help me and that I was a candidate for the Pinhole treatment. I felt relieved and hopeful for my healing. Dr. Chao presented me an $16K treatment plan to get the Pinhole surgery which included a mandatory deep clean, Perio Protect trays, and occlusion device. He gave me a 50% discount and required that I pay everything upfront. It seemed like an odd way to do business, but he was confident in his ability to help me. He ordered the Perio Protect trays and occlusion device for the day of my deep clean. But unfortunately nothing went any further. His office did one deep clean and then Dr. Chao refused to move forward with the surgery. Nothing changed from our first session, so I have literally no idea why he suddenly couldn't treat me when he said that he could. I called multiple times to try and get clarity. When I did, he spent about 5 mins on the phone with me and kept referring me to see other specialists. I tried seeing these specialists (some who cleared me for the surgery), and Chao just kept sending me out to more. I had to hound down his office for over a month to try and get the right referral. He even sent me out to get a biopsy for cancer (I definitely don't have mouth cancer). He clearly no longer knew what was going on. Finally, I got fed up waiting and saw two periodontists. They both told me I my tooth needs to be surgically cleaned by a periodontist (a gum specialist who is licensed to perform surgery). Dr. Chao is not a periodontist. He's a general dentist. Which means he has severe limitations in treating anything beyond the basics. When I went back to Dr. Chao with the information from the periodontists, he offered me $2,700 for the surgery he never performed (a small fraction of my original $8K+ investment). I had to harass them for over a month to even get that back, and then they only sent $2,400! I came to find out later that some of his fees (even with the 50% "discount") were more than DOUBLE the industry standard. * $2,400 for a deep clean (industry standard = $1,200) * $1,750 for Perio Protect trays (with the 50% "discount") Industry standard = $650. * $350 for a bacteria test. The same test is $130 online. Or you can get the same exact results for $90 online with SimplyPerio Saliva Test (i.e. https://www.osseodent.com/product/simplyperio-saliva-test/). * $900 per tooth for the Pinhole. I was quoted $625 per tooth by a microsurgery periodontist. * $1,800 for occlusion device (I was quoted $1,200 by another dentist) Paying too much sucks, but the worst part was that Dr. Chao wasn't even able to help me and I'm fighting to get my money back. No medical practitioner should ever treat people who are seeking healing this way. The way he runs his business is everything that is wrong with the business or private medicine in this country. I HIGHLY SUGGEST THINKING TWICE BEFORE MIXING YOUR MONEY UP WITH DR. CHAO. After many months of searching, I ended up getting Regenerative Periodontal Endoscopy treatment with Judy Carroll at Periopeak.com in WA - a deep non-surgical treatment to microscopically remove tooth debris. She also used Emdogain to help regrow bone naturally. After 7 months of struggling for help (which Dr. Chao couldn't do), this woman cleared my infection in one treatment.For those of us who don't want traditional gum grafting, I recommend finding a periodontist who does microsurgery (if you're in LA, Dr. Ricardo Raschkovsky offers this. Or ask Google/ChatGPT for someone in your area). It's less invasive than traditional gum grafting and then you're working with a real periodontist on deeper issues. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't work with anyone who isn't using a microscope. There is a lot going on that can't be seen with basic magnification that most dentists use (including Dr. Chao's office). Gum recession is often a result of bone loss, which is often a result of occlusion. All of that needs to be worked on, not just lifting the gums up. As an added bonus - Dr. Chao makes patients sign a document stating they will not leave any online reviews - which is ILLEGAL in the state of California. Another red flag. I will say that the ladies in his office are very kind and warm. Joy, Meredith, Gia, Cynthia, and others were very caring to me. I give them my thanks. It's not their fault that Dr. Chao struggles with greed and runs a bad, unethical business. Dr. Chao - I am working to find it in my heart to forgive you for whatever happened in this life to create this greed in your spirit. I can only imagine what thta has really cost you in this life. And I say this - it's never too late to turn it around and let the real beauty of your heart be what guides you.
