My three children all look forward to their visits (I've never been able to say that before). The experience is so different from any other office we've visited; every visit is peaceful and the rapport Dr. Uchida establishes with all his little patients is a delight to watch. One of my sons is autistic and has always dreaded going to the dentist before but he doesn't mind his visits here in the least because Dr. Uchida is so gentle and it's much easier for my son to relax when he can't hear other children fussing or tools making loud noises in other rooms. Very thankful to have found this wonderful office!

Calling ToothBuds to confirm if they were in network and set up appointments was very quick and easy. This week we had the pleasure of going to our first appointment. The location was easy to find and there are 3 designated parking spots to park. There's stairs and an elevator to take you to the ToothBuds office. The lobby area and office as a whole is extremely kid friendly. There's games to play with for a wide age range in the lobby. There were TVs playing kid movies while dental cleanings were taking place. The walls had different recognizable characters that my daughter immediately identified and made her feel comfortable. The best part of this experience was the attention to making sure my oldest understood what was going on and felt comfortable with what was being done. Linda is the dental hygienist who assisted us and she explained every single thing and every tool to my daughter, and I felt that that made the experience so much better for her. Linda was so patient and knowledgeable. She made me as a parent, feel very comfortable as well. All in all I highly recommend ToothBuds.

Kids even get a gatchaball toy when their cleaning is done. Only complaint is the super limited and cramped parking down below. There's an attendant, but they're usually less than helpful when trying to park into their incredibly tight spaces. Make sure you check in on yelp and get yourself some free travel dental swag.

From the very beginning, they have created a warm, welcoming environment that makes my kids feel comfortable and at ease. My older son is on the spectrum, and it means so much to us that he feels safe and very comfortable going to his appointments. The team is patient, gentle, and always takes the time to explain things in a way my boys understand, which has made a big difference in how they feel about going to the dentist. What I appreciate most is the genuine care they show for each patient. They take the time to get to know our family and always make us feel valued. It's clear they truly care about the children they treat and their overall experience. I feel very fortunate to have found a dental office we trust, and I would highly recommend them to any family looking for kind, reliable pediatric dental care.

You won't regret it. My child has been with Dr. Hirai since she was about 4 years old. I found out about them having a the worst experience with the pediatric dentist that was with the Aiea Family Dental care. They only had one pediatric dentist at the time which made it difficult to get an appointment even when I informed them that my child was in so much pain. When I first found out about Dr. Hirai, my insurance wouldn't allow me to seek outside care since he wasn't part of the Aiea Family Dental. Mrs. Hirai helped us by not only accepting us as new clients but also gave us discount since I was willing to pay out of pocket to treat my child. Today, we loved hearing that we can stay with Dr. Hirai while my child is a student :) Dr. Allen Hirai has the experience, knowledge and a friendly personality that makes my child happy. That's what matters to me! He knows how to make my child happy, calm and learn about healthy habits. The staffs ate all super nice and friendly too! We love Lei, Malia and the two ladies in the reception desk.

Over the years, I've had everything from routine cleanings to more involved procedures, and every visit has been handled with professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. He always takes the time to thoroughly explain what's going on, walks through options clearly, and answers questions without ever making you feel rushed. What I appreciate most is the consistency. The office is always clean and organized, appointments run on time, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. You can tell the entire team takes pride in what they do. He's also proactive about preventative care. Instead of just fixing problems, he explains what to watch for and how to maintain long-term dental health. That kind of transparency builds trust -- and after five years, I trust him completely. If you're looking for a dentist who is skilled, honest, and genuinely invested in his patients, I highly recommend him.

Root canal, they refer you to other specialists. There's parking available in the structure with validation available. They are off on weekends and Wednesdays.
