Dr. Meng is a a magician with teeth because I had some major issues needing to be fixed.

I recently visited Sunnyvale Dental Aesthetics. From the moment I arrived, everyone on the staff…read morewas polite, kind, and welcoming. Because I have significant dental problems, I was very nervous about my appointment, and I appreciated how friendly the team was. Unfortunately, my experience with Dr. Lum was very disappointing. She never introduced herself, looked over my chart, and quickly listed treatment options without taking the time to listen to my concerns or answer my questions. I came in with severe pain on one side of my mouth and a missing six-unit bridge on the other, so I was hoping for a more compassionate and thorough consultation. Instead, I felt rushed and unheard. I was also surprised that the earliest available root canal appointment was a month away, despite being in significant pain and having no other complications that would prevent treatment. To add to my frustration, I was asked to leave a $100 deposit to secure the appointment. As someone seeking emergency dental care, this made me feel as though I wasn't trusted to keep my appointment. The office staff was excellent, and I truly appreciated their professionalism and kindness. My disappointment lies with the doctor-patient interaction and the lack of urgency regarding my dental pain. I hope this feedback encourages better communication and a more compassionate experience for future patients.

After a two-year journey, she has officially transitioned to retainers, and this milestone feels incredibly special thanks to the amazing orthodontic team and staff who supported her every step of the way. From day one, we received exceptional care and encouragement from everyone - the orthodontists, dental assistants, treatment coordinators, and front desk staff. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Duy Bui, Dr. Janice Hwang, and Dr. Jennifer Xu (Dr. Jenn). Each of them is highly skilled, kind, and truly dedicated to their patients. A special thank-you to Dr. Jenn, who has been caring for my daughter over the past year. Her professionalism, patience, and genuine warmth made every visit a positive experience, and her attention to detail truly shows in the final result. My daughter's teeth look absolutely perfect - and more importantly, she is so confident and proud of her smile. She loves smiling and showing it off, and as a parent, that joy means everything to me. What truly sets this office apart is not only their outstanding orthodontic expertise, but also the people. Every visit feels welcoming and personal. The staff greet us like family, and over time, we've shared life stories and even vacation experiences with them. The treatment coordinators are incredibly helpful and thoughtful, always working with us to maximize our insurance benefits and minimize out‑of‑pocket costs, which we deeply appreciate. This practice delivers the rare combination of clinical excellence, genuine care, and a warm, family‑like atmosphere. We always looked forward to our visits, and that says a lot. I wholeheartedly recommend Silicon Valley Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics - Sunnyvale to any family considering orthodontic care. Thank you for giving my daughter not just a perfect smile, but also such a positive and confidence‑building experience. We are truly grateful.

Disclaimer: never go for invisalign treatment to a regular dentist, find an experienced…read moreorthodontist. I started my Invisalign treatment with a dentist that was certified for it. It wasn't as much for the esthetics as to correct my bite. Near the end of my treatment, I had many doubts about the result and went for a consultation with Dr Ngueng (thanks yelp!). As I feared, the treatment I started treatment wasn't going to get me the correct bite. So I "relocated" to Sunnyvale Orthodontics and many months later I finally have a good bite, yay! I just wish that I didn't remove my perfectly healthy "extra" teeth when I was a kid or that after removing my wisdom teeth someone would tell me that I'll need to wear a retainer so that my teeth would stay in place. But I am happy that today my kids have other options rather than extraction to have a healthy smile. And the team at Sunnyvale orthodontics works hard to make sure they will smile with confidence. Dr. Nguyen is knowledgeable and is very polite. He takes time to talk about options available, the pros and cons of each method. He answers questions very thoroughly and seems to value every patient; never pushy or dismissive. All the staff at this office are great. Always have a smile on their face and always eager to make sure my needs are met. You're not just "another patient" to them, and it shows. Would recommend this office to anyone who needs this service. Thank you to the entire team!

I had a deeply disappointing experience with this office after returning for follow-up care…read more Despite being a returning patient, my family was treated with rigid policies that weren't explained upfront, and we were denied flexibility that other patients seem to receive. My son was told to "go somewhere else" after simply asking for support. I don't feel comfortable sharing the full situation publicly, but I will say this: if you're a working-class family or going through any kind of financial reset, be cautious. The energy changed as soon as we asked questions and stood up for ourselves. We won't be returning.

I started out with Dr. Walters and Dr. Tacy in 1983. Dr. Walters was bought out by Dr. Ken Shimizu…read more I had to get braces a second time during eleventh grade because I had lockjaw. I remember Dr. Ken Shimizu saying he graduated from UC Berkeley as an engineering major but switched to orthodontics. During high school, every student from Fremont, Homestead, Wilcox, and Santa Clara high schools came to Dr. Tacy and Shimizu as it was the only reputable orthodontics practice. You could see every students' before and after Polaroid pictures in their albums in the lobby. My classmate from elementary school, Pamela K., worked the front desk for years. In 1997, my bottom retainer snapped and broke, and Dr. Ken Shimizu told me to stop wearing my retainers. He didn't make a new bottom retainer for me because he said I didn't need it. Wrong! I had to get braces a third time on only my bottom teeth last year because during your 30s, 40s, and 50s, your bottom teeth will shift. My top teeth looked great because I wore the same metal retainer since 1990. My youngest brother was given the same wrong advice by Dr. Ken Shimizu during the aughts, and his bottom teeth also shifted. He had to get orthodontics a second time four years ago. Because my youngest brother and I weren't happy with the bad advice from Dr. Ken Shimizu, I got braces from an orthodontist in Texas while my youngest brother got invisalign from another orthodontist in the Bay Area. Don't listen to Dr. Ken Shimizu when he tells you to stop wearing your retainer! It's bad advice and you'll end up spending a lot of money again!

Long overdue review for our favorite orthodontist office!…read more We've been going to Dr. Shimizu for many years, starting with our daughter (now in college) and next with her younger brother. We started with Dr. Ken who is amazing - love talking to him as it's like chatting with your favorite uncle! Then when his son Dr. Kevin joined the practice, we were a little nervous but those fears were quickly put to rest as Dr. Kevin is equally skillful and easy to talk with! The practice is very modern and clean, and the entire office staff is top notch, so friendly and genuinely nice and helpful. They also have lots of goodies to make it fun to come to the office, from treats like ice cream in the summer for the kids, or the coffee bar for adults, and of course a visit to the annual free summer picnic at Saratoga Springs! They also have occasional drawings like the bike drawing, where you earn raffle tickets for having clean teeth! We did Invisalign with our daughter and traditional braces with our son and both were great. Highly recommend! We've referred a number of friends here as well!

We recently are new patients to Silicon Valley Pediatric Dentistry! We started coming here because…read moremy daughter needed braces and then soon after moved all of our family's dental care here because we were so impressed with the staff and the facility. I really appreciate how efficient and thorough the staff is when scheduling appointments and during our visits. They are so well staffed that things work like a well oiled machine. One of the best things is being able to get appointments after school so that I don't have to take any time off to get my kids here. At our old dental office, only morning appointments were available and it was super inconvenient for working parents. Want to give a special shout out to our dental hygienist Kevin who did a great job today and our orthodontist Dr. Janice! I'll always recommend SVPD!

We had an appointment with Dr. Sandy Huang to discuss how she could help resolve the issue. We chose Dr. Huang based on her outstanding online reviews, and after this visit, she absolutely earns our five-star rating. Her office is exceptionally clean, and both the front desk staff and her assistant are professional and friendly. Dr. Huang herself is especially kind, patient, and highly skilled. She took the time to clearly explain in detail the different approaches she could take to fix the problem, which made us feel very comfortable as new patients. Although we expected there might be a long wait to receive treatment due to how many patients she has, we were truly grateful that Dr. Huang was able to fix one of my husband's crowns the same day. Her fee was also very fair. In addition, she helped us make a cost-conscious decision regarding the second crown. Since my husband has already reached his dental insurance limit for the year, she recommended postponing the non-urgent treatment regarding this crown until next year so we could make use of insurance coverage. She did not pressure us into immediate, out-of-pocket treatment, which we greatly appreciated. Overall, we highly recommend Dr. Sandy Huang to anyone looking for a skilled, honest, and compassionate dentist.

Updated Sep 10, 2025 Contacted by Dr I the next day. He…read moreexplained their commitments of managing insurances for their patients and apologized for failing my expectations this time. He promised to help me figure out a way reduce my out of pocket cost to a reasonable number, Still, if your insurance is not in-network covered by luxe dental (e.g. DELTA), ask for an estimate is always good before any services other than routine cleaning. And if you want to stay with a specific doctor, mention it when scheduling the appointments. Original Review Sept 2, 2025: TLDR: Please think twice if you are covered by DELTA and always research your insurance before a visit. TWO start for "Could've been better" because it used to be better :( Luxe dental was the best choice 7 years ago with Delta in-network coverage. Dr. I was very attentive and willing to explain all the details before, during and after the procedure. He also proactively helps me to arrange visits properly to save some money with insurance. Excellent experience overall. A few years ago, Luxe dental left Delta Dental which causes some inconveniences but I was convinced that the out-of-pocket payments are not increased. And I decide to stay with Luxe dental for the good services from Dr. I Last year, Dr.I recommended a whitening procedure to me and explained the cost with insurance extensively. Everything works as expected and I am very impressed. This year, I was silently switched to another doctor (not Lans I or Sandy Huang), who performs fine services but without all the "extras" from Dr. I. AND TODAY, I was surprised by the 700+ bill as all my $2000 allowance are used. After some investigation, I found out that Delta has 500 less allowance for out of network providers($2500 vs $2000). The process of root canal+crown would easily drain the yearly allowance for many insurance plans and I was told nothing before seeing the bill. This should be the responsibility of the office stuff but I think Dr.I may also warns me about the issue. Anyway, it is still my fault to not plan everything properly and it is also my issue to trust Luxe dental after many years of good experiences. It is still a convenient place for routine services but please be cautious about everything else.

Dr. Lee took a much more thoughtful approach and explained that my asymmetry was not severe enough to require surgery, and that it could be treated with a nonsurgical camouflage approach instead. That was a huge relief, and I really appreciated how clearly and honestly he explained my options. What also stood out to me was how detail-oriented he was throughout the process. I never had to point anything out myself because he would notice even small things and continue making adjustments until everything looked right.
