My girlfriend and I both started going to this dentist because it was nearby. After a few sessions…read morethe dentist noticed a cavity. I thought this was surprising since I hadn't gotten a cavity before, but went ahead and got the filling. A month later they said that my girlfriend also had a cavity that needed filling. Given that neither of us had ever had a cavity prior to this dentist, she thought that was fishy and went to get a second opinion, and lo and behold, she didn't have anything resembling a cavity. I don't have proof for me personally, but I suspect they did an unnecessary filling for me and definitely were about to do the same for her. Apparently this sort of unnecessary work recommended by dishonest dentists does happen. Avoid this dentist if at all possible, but if you do choose to go here and get a recommendation for a filling or more invasive procedure, get a second opinion before proceeding.

I have a very high pain threshold and I almost passed out (but that might've been from the scariness of the drill-like sound). Very traumatic. They also said I had several cavities and scheduled a filling for the next month. I ended up waiting and going to my childhood dentist who has always been amazing and he said I didn't have any cavities, so I'm not sure what happened with this place. The reason for two stars instead of just one is because they were very helpful in getting the exact amount my fillings would cost from my insurance company. As someone who has tried to do that before it has rarely worked out well. I will definitely not be going back.

I had very bad experiences at U of M dental school before, so I especially treasure and am grateful for the almost painless skill at Dr. Li's clinic, much better than other clinics (acceptable pain level happens no matter where dental clinics you go) . Her clinic is clean and cozy too.

Yes, you're reading right, I'm giving a dentist 5 stars!…read more This is quite a feat, given my (eeek!) dental trauma at a young age. My first childhood dentist didn't believe in using anesthesia or novacaine of any sort -- not even laughing gas! I had some genetically jacked-up teeth, so that + no pain relief amounted to some scary, scary visits. I also had some discount dental work done at the U of M dental school at one point, and being a young'un with lots of people staring into your mouth when you are hurting/not comfortable in the least is not particularly fun either. As I approached my teens and also needed orthodontia, my parents finally put me with a dentist who did use anesthetic, and he was OK, but I would still feel entirely freaked out every time I had to go. I didn't think I would ever fully get over my dentist anxiety, though, until I started going to Dr. Tim. I don't even know why my parents selected he and Dr. Becky initially, but I ended up following their lead. Boy was I glad I did! I've been seeing him now for at least 7 or so years (sometimes I see his sister, Dr. Becky), and he and his staff always make me feel totally comfortable. He's wonderfully funny and genuinely enjoyable to talk with (when my mouth isn't full of stuff), and so I genuinely look forward to seeing him! He's also very sensitive about affordability and options. If you have somewhat limited dental insurance, he's willing to help you think about what/how might be the most affordable way to get what you need covered, or at least find a different option (sometimes something cheap from the pharmacy is better than nothing at all!). If you're looking for a dentist in Ann Arbor, I strongly recommend this office. There's a reason my entire family (and now a lot of my friends, when they happen to have dental coverage) go here!

It's run by a husband & wife team of Dr. Kim and Dr. Ma, so it felt good knowing that I was supporting a local business instead of some corporate franchise. The person at the front desk (I think her name was Niki) was very helpful when I was filling out my forms and explained to me what was covered through my UofM grad student insurance, along with other logistics related things. I'm usually not good with paperwork, so her help was very much appreciated! After the initial examination, I learned that I had a filling that came loose and some minor gingivitis (which was expected since my teeth have been bothering me for a while now), and Dr. Ma explained her treatment plan for me in a way that I could actually understand. I should mention that I usually get very anxious when it comes to dentists, but Dr. Ma's gentle approach helped alleviate some of that anxiety. Oh yeah, and the hygienist was super thorough. Like, it felt like she got to parts of my mouth that I didn't even know existed. Quick Edit: my boyfriend recently went to Choice Dental after I pestered him about his dental health situation. He's just as weary of dentists as I am, so I was really relieved when he told me that he had a good experience with Dr. Kim. And when he says anything positive about any kind of doctor, he REALLY sincerely means it. So all in all I'd highly recommend Choice Dental to anyone looking for a dentist in the Ann Arbor area.

I'd been going to my dentist for the past couple of years... it was, you know, one of those dentist…read moreoffices that make you feel like a puppy in a puppy-mill. A chain (message me if you want to avoid them) that would always cancel your approintments the week of, offering you an appointment you couldn't make or an appointment 5 months off. And everytime you'd go, different dentist. Nice. So, when I changed jobs, my wife and I looked for a new dentist. Little researcher that she is, she found Dr. Choi at Choice Dental, which is on South Main just across from the stadium in that office building with the parking underneath. Not only is the office pleasant and the staff very friendly and competant, but the service is just outstanding. Everytime I'd turn around, he'd have something new and techy, from the tiny camera he used to take pics of my teeth so I could see what was going on to the program he used to show my how my teeth were going to move. Better yet, when I went for my cleaning, the DENTIST did the whole cleaning. Not a 2 minute consult. The WHOLE cleaning. Long story short, this dentist will make you feel like you're back in time, with a dentist who's good at what he does and actually gives a damn about you. Old school. I asked, and they take pretty much all types of insurance (Delta, BCBS, United Concordia, Guardian, MetLife, Dentamax, AETNA and Cigna). You can also e-mail them at info@choicesmile.com. And... they ARE taking patients. :)
