It's now been a few years since I completed my experience and I now need a replacement retainer set…read moreas the current set is cracking. Contacted the office and was told a single replacement set (with no changes or scans required) would be $550. Fine, that's a business decision you are welcome to make. I then asked for a copy of my digital scans (which should be part of my patient records) and was told it is their policy to not provide these to patients. That's not OK. Your retainer will eventually degrade/crack and you'll need to replace it. You'll be on the hook for hundreds or thousands of dollars moving forward just to keep your teeth in the same position that they currently are.

I was under her care right before and in the beginning of Covid. I had Invisalign through her…read morepractice. Her bedside manner is horrid - very rude and pushy. Not the point. Ever since treatment my jaw click is terrible, it clicks and cracks constantly. An issue I never had. Additionally my lower front teeth show lots of wear. I got my 5 year scans done (a little late) last month and I have significant root degradation of my two upper front teeth. I have decades of teeth scans and the degradation only started after her treatment. Today I saw a different orthodontist - the changes that Dr. Cheng made to my bite makes my lower teeth contact my upper front teeth. It's lots of force to my front teeth. It's likely that their treatment and changes to my bite caused this. Not only has that constant contact likely caused root deterioration, I've had jaw pain and clicking, and my lower teeth are worn. I will be redoing Invisalign with a new ortho to correct these issues.

I am writing this review after a year of not going to this office. I started off with good…read moreexperiences with this dental office. Front desk was friendly, the dental office/equipment looked modern, and the dentists were efficient. Each procedure was explained and front desk helped with scheduling and often notifying for upcoming appointments. So the reason why I stopped going... I had a filling redone due to it coming off. However, I had pain around the same tooth for months. I couldn't eat on that side at all. I went back in for checkups to see if they can figure out what's going on. The head dentist told me to consider getting a crown since there seems to be a cracking on the tooth. They offered to cover the costs however I thought it was a bit extreme to get a crown from a routine filling. Over the next couple months, I would go back multiple times since the pain didn't go away. This included shaving part of the filling, redoing the filling, and trying to figure out my bite. And the final time I went there for a checkup, I was just told it could just be a neurological thing and almost made it sound like it was my fault and they can't do anything about it. The only reason why I kept going back was to give them the opportunity to fix what they had messed up. I ended up looking for another dentist and I told them my issue. They were able to figure what was wrong, and redid my filling. Now I have no pain.

He would see me on holidays and even check up after procedures to make sure I was doing alright. He truly cares for his patients and is without a doubt the best dentist I've ever had. He is extremely humble and excellent at his job. I highly recommend going to him if you're in the Bay Area!

Dr. Ho and his entire team are hands down the best dental practice I have ever experienced. I've…read morebeen coming here for years, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. I originally found Dr. Ho after a nightmare experience at other dental clinics trying to get a routine cavity filled. I had gone to several different dentists who repeatedly hit a nerve during the procedure, causing acute, agonizing pain. I was incredibly anxious, but when I finally switched to Dr. Ho, he and his team took care of the problem cavity with absolutely zero pain. I've been a loyal patient ever since. Their care and responsiveness are truly unbelievable. On a holiday weekend, an old filling (done by a completely different dentist) fell out. I texted Dr. Ho a picture of the tooth, and he responded within mere minutes. In less than an hour from sending that text, I was sitting in his chair getting it fixed. Dr. Ho and his staff are super prompt, deeply care about their patients' comfort, and consistently deliver top-tier care. If you are looking for an amazing, trustworthy dentist, this is the place. If you're thinking about switching dentists, look no further. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

And fix it she did! My bite feels aligned, and I'm back to speaking normally now. My confidence at work is restored :) Not to mention my TMJ has chilled out. You won't find a kinder, more competent team. This has truly been lifechanging, and I am infinitely grateful to Dr Mahood.
