    Cordial, efficient and results-driven. That was my first experience of hopefully many with Dr. Chang and his staff.

    Ask the Community - Gerald E Chang, DDS

    Do you do root canal? Do you extract teeth and do implants there all at same dental office? If you…

    Hi Cindy. Yes we do root canals, extractions , and implants here at our office. However, depending on the difficulty of the case there are times we will refer the treatment out to a specialist.… Read more

    If, after consultation , your suggestion is for dentures, do you do full dentures?

    We do fabricate full dentures here at our office. If the case is complex due to lack of bone we may refer out to specialists if necessary.

    One more x-ray question. Are your x-rays the newer, more comfortable digital or the old style that are difficult for some (like me) to tolerate?

    Sorry I don’t know but our X-ray sensors are standard size and shape. We try our best to make our patients comfortable while we take them but it can be uncomfortable for some people.

    Do you do the panoramic x-ray or only bitewings?

    We do not take panoramic X-rays here at our office. We only take full mouth series and bite wings X-rays.

    Do you accept Liberty Dental, a PPO?

    We are not an in-network provider for liberty ppo however we do bill them as an out-of-network provider.

    Do you perform root canals?

    Depending on the case we do some at our office. However, most root canals are referred to a endodontist.

    Hello, is Dr. Chang accepting new patients and he is able to do a root canal (redo/Re-treatment) if needed in addition to the crown replacement? I see he is on the delta dental provider list and the website describes root canals.

    Hello. We do accept new patients with emergencies. However, we do not redo root canals. We would need to refer you to a endodontist for that procedure.

    I call to make teeth cleaning appointment with your office, I have ppo Delta dental insurance, but you don’t take new patient, when should I call back for appointment?

    Hi Betsy. With patients feeling safer now to come to the dentist since being vaccinated we are finding ourselves to be fully booked. You can try calling back next month to see if we have any openings for new patients. Thank you for your inquiry.

    Do you Accept Delta Dental thru Kaiser Permanente?

    If it is a PPO plan yes we do. If it is a HMO plan no we do not.

    Do you accept the New Dental Choice plans?

    We do not accept the new dental choice plan.

    I recently learned that your office is charging $10 per visit for "Unspecified preventive procedure, by report-Code D1999." This is to cover PPE for the office during the pandemic. Why was this not communicated to patients before billing them for it?

    This is charged out to the insurance company, not to the patient directly. Please contact our office for further explanation. But in the meanwhile we will look into ways to efficiently communicate this to our patients.

    Hi! Do you accept any dental discount plans such as iDental, Aetna Dental or Ameriplan? Thanks so much!

    Yes we do accept certain plans at this time.

    Do you accept United Healthcare?

    No we are not an in-network provider. However, we accept UH as a out-of-network provider for PPO plans.

    Does your office take Delta Dental PPO?

    Yes we do accept Delta PPO

    Do they take Guardian?

    Yes we accept Guardian as long as it is a PPO plan.

    Is Care Credit accepted as a form of payment?

    Hi Rylan, Yes we do accept care credit as a form of payment. However, there are requirements and limitations. Please contact our office if you need specific information.… Read more

    What does the insurance actually cover?

    Hi Ruth. Sorry I missed your question. Every insurance policy is different so its hard to say what they will cover and what they will not cover. If there is something specific you are looking to see coverage for you can call your insurance company… Read more

    Dr. Chang do all of the dentists you have set up to cover for those 3 days you are not available take the same insurance that you do?

    Each dental office has their own list of insurances that they are providers for. Some of them may or may not be in-network providers but all of them can bill your insurance… Read more

I have been a patient of Dr Joseph Godinez for 15+ years he is wonderful!!!! He joined Tahquitz dental and I of course followed him there as many of his patient did. I also sent New patients to him while he was there. When he parted ways they knew exactly where he would be moving to and practicing but refused to tell any of his patients when they called to schedule appointments to see him. Instead they continued to act as if Dr Godinez was no longer practicing at all and wanted me to switch to seeing their other Dentist!!!! I heard the same from so many other patients who were trying to make appointments to see him only to be blocked and his patients be forced to see a new dentist instead of informing his patient where he had moved. Thankfully after several months I found him!!! He is now at Bright Now Dental in La Quinta @ 760-771-1200 There is plenty of patients in the valley, No need to forcibly steal another doctors long time loyal patients. GREED is a shame :-(

Dr. Jeffrey Tom, who was referred by my…read moreendodontist for a TMJ consultation, is a breath of fresh air in the field of medical professionals. Dr. Tom stands unique in his ability to set a tone of calm in the room, listen to his patient's "story," handle a comprehensive examination, analyze the information to determine a diagnosis and clearly outline potential treatments, with an overarching conservative approach. Dr. Tom is superbly qualified among peers, having completed advanced study in prosthodontics. To round out the picture of this practice: The office is beautifully designed for aesthetics and privacy, and each associate from the front desk to the initial interviewing dental assistant understands the importance of client care, and friendly, competent interaction. Dr. Tom has hired and built a real team. Even with a degree in journalism, I can't find enough words to detail the quality of the experience you will have in this office.

Dr. Tom is very kind and direct and knowledgeable, his staff is really incredible, the office is very modern and clean and reassuring. A+ experience.
