Dr. Wong is hands down the best dentist a girl can ask for! I've been a patient of his for nearly 20 years! In fact, he's so good that I kept him as my denist when I moved to Washington, DC for 10 years. I never missed an appointment with him. Dr. Wong is gentle with cleanings, and I love that he is the one who actually cleans my teeth every visit and he KNOWS when there has been any change. Additionally, he takes time to review my X-rays with me and always communicates what he's looking for and what he's seeing. I have a lot of trust in him. Now I live in the Bay Area and my fiance and I both travel to Elk Grove just for our dental work. I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

Dr Ian Wong is a family favorite Dentist. My family of 5 have been going to Dr Wong sense 2010. My husband doesn't trust anyone else. He says Dr Wong is honest and fair. Right now my husband lives in Florida and works in Palm Springs and still comes to Dr Wong. If you want a fair and honest dentist he is the one you should see. read more

I've been going to Dr. Wong for approximately 5 years. The best dentist in town! He's detail oriented and friendly, which makes the experience pleasant and smooth every time I have my appointment. Services received: filling and routine checkup. Can't recommend him enough! read more

State employees, do not go here. This place is out-of-network so your coverage is not as good. Dr. Ian Wong was nice at the beginning but like other reviews, he will do what he can to get paid. He did not listen to my concerns on which tooth was hurting (aching for years). He kept trying to push me to do a crown and root canal on other teeth that was not in any pain. It would have costed me a lot. I left to another dentist in-network who listened to my concerns and fixed my aching cracked tooth. Gladly did a crown and filling with hardly any out-of-pocket expenses. read more

Dr. Ian Wong has been my dentist for 20+ years. He and his team are always the best and always reliable. I usually get my appointment early in the morning. Dr. Wong is never late. I am in and out of his office in less than 45 minutes. I never have to wait. Excellent time management! The office is comfortable and very organized. Dr. Wong and his team are very professional and super friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Wong if you're looking for a dentist for you and your family. read more

One word: Unscrupulous, but not any worse than Chan & You DDS further west on Laguna Blvd in Laguna West, so probably about the same. Detailed story: My husband and I saw this dentist for about a year and I forgot that I have not left a review. I had seen the good reviews here and started coming here in 2014 and stopped after 2015. First, for state workers and anyone else with Delta Dental coverage, this dentist is a grandfathered Delta Premier dentist, so your dental coverage will not go as far b/c for the same exact procedure (say a filling on a certain tooth that's 1 surface), a Premier dentist will get paid more by Delta b/c they have contracted rates that are much higher than a PPO dentist. A PPO dentist can see you even if you have the Premier plan, but if you have the PPO plan (not PPO plus Premier) and you got see this dentist who's a Premier ONLY dentist, your plan limit will be wiped out much faster. Ian Wong also finds every little tiny speck of a cavity and immediately tells you that you must get a filling. This is not true. Teeth, like other bones in your body CAN heal and you can remineralize your teeth, just look that up on Google. In about 1 year, he found and filled 13 (yes, that's THIRTEEN) cavities in my husband's mouth and never once attempted to help my husband restore naturally. Furthermore, Ian Wong will try to maximize his financial gains by finding more things to do in your mouth than you really need. So try to find a dentist that's more conservative in treatment and less interventional and invasive. This dentist definitely had a huge laundry list of items for my husband every time we saw him. Thankfully, I figured that out quickly and both left this practice (for the record, he couldn't find a single cavity in my mouth and I've been cavity free for 30+ years even going through multiple dentists so if he had found one, I would've really scrutinized his practice even more) and helped my husband improve his oral hygiene routine. In short, my experience at this dental office is that it's much more about their pocketbook than about helping you prevent unnecessary (or even necessary) procedures b/c it's really a conflict of interest if you think about it. If everyone walking through the door has great to perfect teeth and gums, they would not make nearly as much money. The question is whether this dentist has your overall health in general (oral health has been shown to be closely affected by and also affects your general health) and dental health in specific in mind. And my conclusion is that this dentist definitely does NOT have your health in mind as his highest priority. read more

Highly recommend Dr. Wong!!! I've been a patient of his for 20+ years and couldn't be more pleased with his care. He does all the cleaning and exams himself with a hygienist assisting him. His warm, caring and gentle style is very much appreciated. Thankfully I've only had to get a couple of fillings in all my time with him but he makes sure to talk you through every step of the way. The office itself is small but neat and tidy. He also offers Saturday appointments which works well with my schedule. You can't go wrong with coming here for your dental needs. read more

Absolutely LOVE this office and the service we always get. Excellent staff and very attentive service. We appreciate Dr wong so much for his honesty and knowledge. We have been patients for 20+ years!! read more

First experience: teeth cleaning Second experience: filling Recommended by a coworker, where her family goes to. Dentist Wong was very very informative on both services. He would informed me of every step he was doing before he did it. He continuously asked if I was okay. It was amazing during my cleaning and first consultation of my teeth, he showed me educational animated slides on his computer on the anatomy of my teeth and what was going on and how it should be. He also gave me a pamphlet on a guide of how to care for my teeth with new fillings and caps and what not. He also informed me that I had cavities that were forming and how to be able to contain them so that they might go away or for them to not get worse where I might need to get fillings later. I totally felt that he was very informative, truthful and totally for the best interest of the patient and not just his pockets. I've tried many dentists where they did not perform my cleaning correctly where they just polished my teeth and did not do any cleaning at all, to dentists overcharging me on work that was not even done well where it needed to be redone due to the fillings falling out. It even a year later. I hope I have found my new dentist that I am going to love and stay with for a very long time until he decides to retire!!! read more

Exceptional dentist! My family and I have been going to Dr. Wong since 2015. I currently live in the Bay Area and I make the effort to go see him 2-3 times a year for my cleanings. I had my fair shares of mediocre dentists, so when I find a good one, like Dr. Wong, I'm definitely going to keep seeing him. He really cares about his patients and takes pride in his work. He is not the kind of dentist that would recommend any unnecessary work. He is very informative and knowledgeable. His staff is also super friendly! *Dr. Wong speaks Cantonese and English both frequently *Opens on Saturdays occasionally *Make appointment in advance since he gets booked up *Gives you a goodie bag with toothbrush, travel size toothpaste and floss at the end of every cleaning *Parking is super easy. Office is clean and welcoming. Staff is super nice. read more

Dr. Wong has been my dentist for 20 years. He is very knowledgeable and kind and never pushes unnessary treatment. I drive 45 minutes to his office because he is excellent! read more

Fantastic dentist. The receptionist is always on it. It never fails...she will call you a couple of days prior to your appointment in order to confirm. The dentist is really thorough...he lets you know everything that he is about to do. He will constantly ask you about the pain and if you need more novocaine. I'm so glad that we found a great dentist on our first try...thanks yelp! read more

I cannot believe the unprofessionalism I have experienced from Dr. Wong. My whole family goes to him and yes he was incredibly nice, but the second we had a miss communication the childish games began. I will never be return to his office. read more

Ian Wong, DDS - Here is a picture he mailed to my PARENTS! I'm 26 with a 4 year old! - General Dentistry Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Dr. Ian Wong Dr. Ian Wong is hands down the best dentist I've had my whole life. I found Dr. Wong after moving to Elk Grove and relying on fellow Yelpers to look for a new dentist. From the first visit, I knew I found the dentist that I would be going to for a long time. Dr. Wong has exceptional bedside manner and is very thorough in explaining what is going on with your teeth. Every time he looks at X-ray results, he will give you a general dentistry lesson and explain his evaluation of the X-ray and let you know every detail possible. He is very up front of what needs to be done and more importantly, what DOESN'T have to be done. I've come across a few dentists who have suggested unnecessary dental procedures just to make a quick buck. I was so impressed with Dr. Wong that I referred my parents to Dr. Wong and Dr. Wong immediately found an issue with my Mom that was possibly life threatening. In one visit, Dr. Wong found something that her last two dentists did not bother to mention. According to Dr. Wong and the specialist who did the surgery, the issue should have been found at least 10 years ago. WOW! After my Mom's surgery I had an appointment with Dr. Wong and thanked him for finding the issue. He took my gratitude as humble as anyone I've ever seen. To him, he was just doing his job and he was sincerely happy that my Mom was recovering well. Not only is Dr. Wong a great dentist with integrity and humility, he is a great guy always willing to trade stories about raising his two daughters (I have two daughters myself). The office staff and his dental assistants also do a great job and are always very kind in their demeanor. They are always helpful and the receptionist is willing to answer any insurance questions you may have. I am thankful that I found a dentist not just for me, but for my whole family as well. read more

My husband and me both schedule an appointment same day for regular cleaning in 2019. he asked us to do deep cleaning. we told Dr Wong that we did x-ray in 2018 with images in my email and deep cleaning. He still ask us to do deep cleaning and x-ray. he said no worries that insurance will pay for it. I told him that I'm not going to do deep cleaning cause is painful. He said that if I am not listening and I don't need dentist. he asked me to go other dentist for regular cleaning. basically we scheduled our appointment for regular cleaning, but he only did x-ray and count numbers for our tooth for this appointment . He wasted our time and insurance company money. read more

My family and I have been going to Dr. Wong for over a decade. He is super nice, caring, informative, professional, and knowledgeable. He has never tried to upsell or push unnecessary services (unlike other practices I have gone to in the past). Whenever we've had a dental emergency they have worked to get us in right away. The office is clean and the staff is wonderful! Dr. Wong genuinely cares about his patients. We love Dr. Wong and his staff! read more

*** OUTSTANDING DENTIST ** PERFECTIONIST * FRIENDLY * I've been coming to Dr. Ian Wong for dental work for many years and I LOVE it! He is very thorough, gentle, and patient. He's knowledgeable of dentistry and gives you the utmost honest opinion. You don't have to worry about his quality of work because he's a perfectionist. He's wonderful! The office is pretty nice, clean and updated. Dr. Ian Wong has one of those panoramic x-ray machine. His dental assistants and receptionist are very friendly and easy going. P.S. - I recommend Dr. Ian Wong to all my dearest people. read more

I was referred here by a long time patient of Ian Wong. But this office simply doesn't care to gain new patients all that much. I'm in need of dental treatment and I thought they'd make an exception and try to get my business, but they simply just don't care here. read more

My family has been seeing Dr Wong for years now. I trust him completely and have had such a great experience with him and his office. The front desk is very kind and courteous as are his assistants. Dr Wong is great at explaining and showing you details on your X-rays. I had a few spots on my teeth that weren't cavities yet a few years ago and instead of wanting to drill them immediately or trying to tell me they are cavities when they weren't, he detailed how to take care of them and told me they might eventually turn into cavities if I didn't floss. I appreciate how he is informative and doesn't try to earn a quick buck like some dentists might. He also has great bedside manner! I was very scared for my first filling in over 15 years. He was patient and informed me of every step he was doing. It didn't hurt! My dental fear is pretty much gone. Thank you Dr Wong. read more

Dr. Wong is by far the best dentist I've ever had! Not only does he explain every procedures, he's also very understanding. He took extra care of me when I was pregnant with both my sons. When I missed my appointment due to a visit to the ER, he personally called me to make sure I was ok. I appreciate how he's so gental when caring for my teeth and is concern about my comfort. I would definitely recommend Dr. Wong. read more

nice friendly dentist and very specific with describing each procedure or problems. came here to remove 2 wisdom tooth in one visit and only took about 30 mins without pain. i trust and believe this is a long term place for my dentist. read more

Ian Wong, DDS - wisdom tooth removal - General Dentistry Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I came here based on the high reviews. I think the receptionist is awesome and easy to work with. Once I got past the receptionist though, I just didn't get that warm fuzzy feeling like I do at my doctor's office or my previous dentist's office (I moved to Elk Grove a few months ago) I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and returned with my kids and I still didn't feel comfortable after 3 trips so I will move on. read more

Dr. Ian Wong is such a genuine person. Not only did he make me feel comfortable, he was also great at calming me down before my cleaning. (In my younger years, I had quite a few traumatic experience at the dentist.) Before Dr. Ian Wong started anything, he went over any questions I had and made sure I had what I needed done. He also thoroughly explained each procedure and meaning before he carried on with anything. The receptionist was also great! She has a great personality and was very accommodating to my questions in regards to dental insurance and coverage. The only reason why I gave this place a 4/5 star was due to their lack of availability. It took me about 3 weeks to book a first visit. read more

Dr. Wong and his staff are all wonderful. My children and I have been coming here for years and after a brief lapse in insurance we were RELIEVED to come back. Compared to other offices and dentists in EG, Dr. Wong is the best in my opinion. Not only is he efficient and obviously good at his job, he also cares about the patients (young and not-so-young) and makes sure they are informed and comfortable. I typically don't write reviews, but I have to give credit where credit is due and I would recommend Dr. Wong for all ages and all issues/concerns. read more

He is seriously one of the best. Lots of care and time put into every appointment. He is always very clear and explains anything if you have a question. He has a great personality and shares just enough to keep the conversation going. Staff is great and helpful and making an appointment is always flexible and easy. I highly recommend this dentist as we have already recommended him to a few already! read more

Today was my first visit to see Dr Wong. He was highly recommended by my Auntie. I have to say, I agree with the excellent reviews he and his office staff have received. He is a great dentist. Very thorough, professional, courteous, polite, and he explains everything step to you. I live all the way in North Natomas and drive to Elk Grove just to see him. And after today, I plan on having him as my regular dentist for now on. I've had the worst experience with trying to find a super dentist. I don't even want to begin to tell you, but trust us who give these reviews... YOU WILL NOT EVER BE SORRY for switching, finding, choosing, Dr. Ian Wong. I hope and pray he and he's staff live happy and healthy lives, because they are helping people with something very important in ours. Thank you Dr. Wong and staff!!! Finally, we found our dentist! read more

Dr. Wong is very gentle and thorough. I have never enjoyed a dentist visit until now. I strongly recommend him!

By far the best dentist that I have ever met. Dr. Wong makes me feel like family. He's extremely personable and very meticulous in all he does. I leave his office with squeaky clean teeth every time. Wonderful staff as well. Starting with the receptionist (Florence) to his dental hygienist (Tuyet). I can honestly say, I look forward to going to the dentist :) read more

My kids have been going to Dr. Wong since the age of 2. He's great with kids. The office doesn't have games or TVs for kids but they never make us wait and Dr. Wong is very gentle with kids. He's thorough and takes the time to explain fully to the parents. read more

I love Dr. Ian Wong. He has such a friendly bedside manner. He is very respectful, and kind. He talks you through everything you are doing. He even makes my son feel comfortable. I have been to several dentists, and he is the best one I have ever been to. I highly recommend Dr. Wong. As would my mother, father, sister, my nephews, my friend, her kids and her husband. Everyone who I know that has gone to him has left happy. :) read more

Dr.Wong and his staff are professionals in every aspect. Every time I go there I'm treated with courtesy and respect. Everything is explained step by step during any procedure that is done. My first impression of Dr.Wong and staff was "wow" here is someone with bedside manners, something sorely lacking today. You cannot go wrong seeing this man. He has a customer for life. Anything less than 5 stars means you have a problem with dentist not the man. If you have a sensitive mouth he is very gentle and his work is top notch. Make an appointment today. read more

Dr. Wong is a fantastic dentist! The staff is friendly and efficient and if you get in a bind they don't mind if your kids come with you! After having a series of bad experiences with our previous dentist, my wife and I went to see Dr. Wong on a recommendation. This guys explains every single thing he's going to do and if you have concerns he addresses all of them. Dr. Wong is truly a professional! I recommend him over and over again! read more
