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.

Using an alias, as further interactions are not desired…read more It's almost a relieve to know that her practice remains small and floaty so her fractured integrity won't spill into industries that actually affect people at scale. I just completed my 2nd alignment treatment with another phenomenal orthodontist, after my first deeply unhappy encounter with Dr. Amanda Cheng back in 2018. The difference in communication, service quality and the final result was staggering. At least with the second doctor, I was not questioned and condemned simply for not grasping an orthodontic terminology. After all, I didn't attend Harvard for a dental degree -- I came to receive professional care from someone who did. When I raised concerns about my teeth still being crooked before treatment was "completed," Dr. Cheng flatly denied it and refused to provide any way of measuring progress. In contrast, my second doctor carefully examined the issue, created a refinement plan, and delivered perfect alignment as a result. For the record, both doctors labeled me an "easy case". I wish her display of the Harvard certificate and the warmth of shared Asianness had been authentic rather than performative during those initial visits, but instead I left feeling hard-sold and manipulated -- and I truly hope no patient has to experience that again.

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.

This office is clean and efficient. I am leaving this review after a very uncomfortable experience…read more I went in to have my retainers adjusted after receiving them over a year ago. Previous adjustments had been provided at no charge. When I scheduled this appointment, I was initially told there would be a fee, but it was ultimately waived, which I appreciated. At the beginning of the appointment, I explained that I was experiencing multiple issues with my retainers. The doctor adjusted the bottom retainer and put it back in, but then immediately raised my chair, even as I was pointing to my top retainer and trying to explain that it was also causing pain. Rather than asking me about the issue, she called an assistant over and asked her to help me. The assistant did not seem to understand what I needed. When the doctor returned, she began the conversation by asking, "Okay, everything good now? Are you happy?" This felt really dismissive because I was clearly still trying to explain that there was an unresolved issue and that wearing the top retainer was painful. I felt as though I was being rushed out rather than listened to. When I explained the problem, the doctor suggested that I see a dentist, even though the pain occurs specifically when I wear the retainer. I understand that the office was busy and I did not mind waiting. However, the expectation of the appointment was to have all of my issues addressed in one visit so I would not need to come back. I still left in pain. I also did not feel comfortable continuing to ask questions or bring up the other issues I was experiencing with the retainer, because it felt like there was a lack of willingness to help and more of a push to move the appointment along. It became an increasingly uncomfortable experience. I ultimately left feeling like I had not been fully heard or able to address everything I came in for. I would have appreciated a few additional minutes of clear communication, patience, and an effort to fully understand and resolve the issues before ending the appointment or referring me elsewhere.

Dr. Ho texted the next Sunday and got me all an appointment for that Monday.

He gently pointed out a few areas to keep an eye on and did and incredible cleaning all without any shame or pain.

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!

I can't say enough wonderful and complimentary things about OrthoWorks!! Dr. Shen is the man!! And all the staff at OrthoWorks are so nice, friendly, and helpful. Shout out to May, Patient Advisor; and Row, Clinical Supervisor, both whom I interacted most during my appointments. I went in to have a gap closed, where I had missing canine tooth (first picture). With Dr. Shen's expertise, the gap closed within about 2 yrs wearing braces. The final result - no more gap; and most importantly looks like I have a full set of upper teeth. Looking at my own smile, even I can't tell my canine tooth is missing!! Even my dental hygienist couldn't believe what a great job Dr. Shen did. She said, "it's short of a miracle that your optometrist closed that gap and teeth alignment is perfect!" Needless to say, my Dentist and her staff are equally as impressed as I am with the excellent work done by OrthoWorks. You can't go wrong with Dr. Shen; and his team of expert Orthodontists, and clinical support team too. I highly recommend OrthoWorks. 5-star review from me!! THANK YOU, ORTHOWORKS!
