I was very cautious about picking a provider for Invisalign. I've had a lot of concerns about IPR for Invisalign as I've seen plenty of horror stories about poorly done IPRs. Dr. Masuda was very patient and understanding of my fear and explained how she does it - she did great with IPRs on my teeth. She was also very responsive throughout the whole Invisalign treatment via email whenever I had any questions. Additionally, her staff has been very friendly and knowledgeable as well. Overall, it was a great experience as far as orthodontic treatments can get! I love my new smile! read more

great service, always on time and great appointment availability. Always felt comfortable in the office and with treatment plans

Dr. Masuda and her team are wonderful! She is so knowledgeable, patient, and thoughtful. We really appreciated the way that she thoroughly and clearly walked through our options, for both of our boys orthodontic needs, and helped us weigh any pros and cons of the decisions to be made. She was especially patient with my younger son who is more sensitive to discomfort. He just finished his first phase of braces, and his teeth look fabulous! Wonderful Dr and office! read more

My son recently finished his treatment with Dr Matsuda. We are so happy with the entire process! From start to finish, we were well informed about every step. Nothing was hidden and our questions were always answered. My son never complained about going to the office. Dr Matsuda and staff made sure everyone is welcomed and comfortable. On his BIG day, on top of going home with a perfect smile, they sent him off with a ton of goodies and a bottle of Martinelli. It made that day so special. Thank you Dr Matsuda and staff! read more

Masuda Orthodontics - A great smile. Thank you Dr. Masuda and your office team!! - Orthodontists Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Both my husband and I got invisalign aligners with Dr. Masuda. As adults getting braces, we were skeptical our teeth would even change, but Dr. Masuda's treatment plan was on target from beginning to end! She did 3D digital scans of our teeth and customized our treatment plan to fit our lifestyle. It took less than a year to change 40-50 year old teeth! Amazing! Dr. Masuda is committed to her patients. She doesn't leave any stone unturned when it comes to the treatment plan. She also respects her clients' wishes and input. Ashley also is committed to the patients that come in. Together they make the patients feel at home. The whole staff is very accommodating and kind. My husband and I are so grateful for Dr. Masuda and her team! Team Masuda! read more

Just finished Invisalign treatment and had an excellent experience! Everyone at Dr. Masuda's office was very helpful and professional. Dr. Masuda explained each step of the process thoroughly and everything went smoothly. read more

Dr. Masuda is a really good orthodontist and I thank her assistant, Ashley, and her receptionist/office manager, Kelly, for being very supportive, enthusiastic, and friendly throughout the entire braces process. They always made sure everything was right, and if something wasn't, they made sure to correct it. I recommend Dr. Masuda and her amazing team to all who are looking to get braces for themselves or someone else. When I came here with my Mom for the first time in November/December 2016, I didn't know what to expect. Dr. Masuda gave us a detailed list of all the financing options to choose from, different types of braces, hand-held models of teeth after braces if you take care of them, and if you don't. She gave us a detailed quote on how much the braces would cost, when I should expect to get them, and an estimate on how long it may take. She also took a 3D scan of my teeth, and using the scan, they were able to put together a 3D model of my mouth, and Dr. Masuda was able to show us the areas that braces could correct. After I got the last of my baby teeth pulled out, we were able to start planning the braces process. A week or so before I got my braces on, I was given a goody bag to enjoy all the foods I won't be able to eat with braces one last time. The appointments were very flexible, and thanks to Kelly, we were able to arrange most of the appointments after school. The only appointments during school hours were when I first got my braces on, and when I got my braces off later on. When I first got my braces on, I was constantly wondering how it would turn out, and during every visit, I would ask how long I would be wearing my braces for/how much longer I would have them. During every appointment, whether it was Dr. Masuda or Ashley, they made sure I had all the supplies I needed to maintain the quality of my braces and to make sure the process went as smooth as possible. After a while, I got used to the routine of wearing braces. I wore my elastic bands for 2-3 months, got my wire tightened/adjusted during almost every visit, as well as the rubber bands on my brackets changed to the colors of my liking. Now, it is 2018. After 1 1/2 - 2 yrs, I finally got my braces off. I was given a second goody bag full of the foods I couldn't eat while I had braces on, a bottle of Martinelli's' sparkling cider, and Kelly took a picture of me with Dr. Masuda to go up on the wall with the others that had braces like I did. I'm so happy with how my teeth turned out, and shocked at how much braces have changed and improved my smile. Big thanks to Dr. Masuda, Kelly, and Ashley for everything they've done for me. If you guys are reading this, thank you for everything. If my Mom had not brought me here to get braces, my teeth/smile would not be how it is now. read more

The staff were pleasant and the lounge is comfortable with a FIavia coffee machine and a range of unique Italian coffee. Her schedule is very busy so I recommend you call in and set an appointment. Dr. Masuda's smile is jaw dropping. I couldn't stop staring at her teeth because her teeth are broad, white, straight and level. Since orthodontists have different schools of thought on what teeth shape is "beautiful" and how teeth should look, make sure you go to an orthodontist who you think has nice teeth themselves. I'm always shocked when orthodontists have ugly teeth, because how could they fix my teeth when they can't even manage their own?! read more

Masuda Orthodontics - Lounge with tastey Altera Coffee. - Orthodontists Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Dr. Masuda and her staff (Ashley & Kelly) are awesome! They are friendly and professional. They were highly recommended by my general dentist. I decided to go with Invisalign instead of braces. I started my treatment back in March 2018. Now, 3 years later 2021 I am finally done and received my retainers! But it was well worth the wait. I started seeing results within 3 months of my treatment. Dr. Masuda was very precise and persistent with my treatment. She was able to fix my bite and crowding. I can finally show off my teeth and smile with confidence! Thank You Dr. Masuda and staff!! read more

Dr. Masuda and her team are amazing folks. As an adult with pretty messed up teeth, I was apprehensive about the entire process of getting Invisalign to say the least. However from the imaging & recommendation process, to the the consistent follow ups and responsiveness, to the chair side manner, these folks are top notch. And most importantly, I'm getting the results based on their instruction and recommendations! read more

We have three boys who will likely need orthodontic work. I trust all 3 to Dr. Masuda and her team. Dr. Masuda is well spoken and she explains ideas so we can all understand what her intentions are. Teeth are so important, and I am thankful I was able to get our boys into her care. We will be seeing so much of her with all the follow-up visits! This relationship will last years. read more

Dr. Masuda is wonderful. She had my son in and out of braces in less than 2 years. When I saw him for the first time without his braces I almost burst out in happy tears! She is kind, intelligent beyond measure and has the warmest staff there is. I highly recommend Dr. Masuda - 5 stars and beyond! S. Payne read more

I'm a recent graduate from an Invisalign program directed by Dr Masuda's excellent care. I started during the pandemic and was impressed by all the care taken to keep patients and staff safe. Dr Masuda was thorough and patient in explaining my options, the process, timing and in setting expectations. I never felt pressured in my decision. She answered all my questions, including via after-visit emails. Aside from her honesty and clinical expertise, Dr Masuda was extremely personable as was all her office staff. Going in for visits was like seeing friends who remember little details. Follow ups were easy to schedule; the office is conveniently located with ample parking. I am absolutely thrilled with the improvement in my bite alignment and, of course, with my smile. A big thank you to Dr Masuda and her team! I would highly recommend them to anyone needing orthodontic care. read more

5 stars aren't enough, I couldn't be happier with my results! I always looked forward to my appointments. I felt like part of the family every time I visited the office. Great coordination with my dentist throughout the process. Dr. Masuda, Ashley and Kelly are awesome to work with! I will miss our appointments and all the laughs! read more

She takes the time to explain the procedure and addresses all of your concerns. Her staff is super friendly and accommodating. Her office is clean and comfortable! Highly recommended! read more

I am so happy with the staff here. I am working/visiting from out of town and completely forgot to pack my rubber bands! Called in and Kelly got me a pack at no charge! What a lifesaver! read more

I'm a 59 year old female who had Invisalign done by Dr. Masuda and her staff, and I'm extremely happy with my final results. Dr. Masuda was a perfectionist with the alignment of my teeth. It took a little over a year to correct a cross bite plus other smaller corrections. Dr. Masuda took extensive time explaining the process before we even started, and allowed me to ask any questions. She and her staff were so organized distributing and labeling my new aligners so that I would change them every two weeks. My office visits were super efficient. The staff was alway friendly and kind. read more

Dr. Masuda and her wonderful team(Kelly and Ashley) are the best! They make you feel like family. Very warm and welcoming when you arrive. They acknowledge my family when they come with me and make them feel comfortable while they are waiting. My teeth feel great and my smile is looking way better. Lol. Can't wait for my kids to go and have Dr. Masuda take care of them. read more

Dr. Masuda is a great orthodontist, I had a great experience with her as both she and her staff are very attentive and have wonderful bedside manner. I couldn't be happier with how my teeth turned out and am so glad that I chose her as my orthodontist. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an orthodontist! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Masuda! I can't say enough about her and her staff. They were so nice and super supportive throughout the entire process. My daughter's teeth look amazing! I was especially impressed at the way they scheduled each patient so that we felt like we had Dr. Masuda's full undivided attention if we needed to ask questions, but they also got us in and out quickly if we didn't. Dr. Masuda and her staff were also very careful after the quarantine went into effect to make sure their office was clean and each patient was safe. Dr. Masuda also made sure to update me after each and every appointment. The communication was amazing. The process was easy every step of the way. Dr. Masuda and her staff are truly great at what they do and I recommend that check them out! read more

Dr. Masuda and her team are professional, caring, respectful, and accommodating. All of my appointments were punctual and personal; I was always greeted with a smile. I understood my treatment procedure and all of my questions and concerns were thoroughly addressed and answered. My experience with braces was positive, efficient, and easy to manage; all credited to the team's fantastic efforts. I am so happy with the results! They literally widened my smile with every visit! Thank you Dr. Masuda and team!! read more

What can I say! As an older patient I was skeptical about investing money to straighten my teeth. This is the second time for me. I had the old fashion metal braces of the early 70s. Unfortunately back then orthodontics was not as advanced and patients were not informed to wear your retainer for your life time. Dr. Masuda does great work. I am extreme pleased with the results! I love my new smile! Thank you and lots of hugs to Dr. Masuda, Ashley and Kelly! read more

DO NOT GO TO DR. MASUDA! Se is extremely rude and unprofessional!!!!!!! She also used my personal information without asking my permission - before even speaking to her! So disappointed. :( read more

Dr. Masuda and staff are wonderful. My children feel very cared-for and their smiles are looking great. I highly recommend Dr. Masuda!

Five stars isn't enough to rate Dr. Masuda and her wonderful staff. Not only did my son receive excellent Orthodontist care there, but I did as well! While you would expect a teenager to receive great care, what was unusual was the fact that I was in my fifties. I had always hated my smile, yet was nervous about taking any action. They always made me feel as if I was the most important patient they had, and they gave me a smile that I am proud of. Dr. Masuda and her staff are kind, accommodating, and highly professional. Dr. Masuda is also highly recommended by my Dentist, which made me feel good about going there. If you have any need for help in making your smile one you can be proud of- please try them first. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Dr. Masuda and staff for what you've done for me and my family. You'll never know how much you've changed my self-esteem and confidence. I can never thank you enough. Julie F. read more

Awesome staff and funny. Dr Masuda is very accommodating. I'm more than 9 months in and see great results.

I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Masuda! I take my ten year old son to her for his orthodontic treatment. I couldn't be happier with the way things have gone so far! From the first consultation appointment, I've felt informed about the treatment plan and it continues to be right on track. Dr. Masuda's office staff (Liza and Rachel) are terrific, as is Dr. Masuda herself! They're just so nice! Her office is super clean and there is a single serve coffee machine in the waiting room, so you can make coffee, tea, or hot chocolate if you want to. One other thing worth mentioning, is that Dr. Masuda pretty much runs on time! I don't think I've ever had to wait longer than my scheduled appointment time, and that's a really important thing when we all are so busy these days! Again, Dr. Masuda is AWESOME! You can't go wrong with her! read more

This place is great! I am so glad that we found such a kind and competent orthodontist on our first try. Such a nice staff and a clean office. Dr. Masuda was so charming and made every effort to make my daughter comfortable. She directed most of her conversation toward my daughter which I really appreciated. Dr. Masuda could have easily started my daughter on braces right away and charged us extra for it but she advised us that it is better to wait another 6 months to minimize the amount of time my daughter will be in braces. She was also concerned that as my daughter would be starting a new school in a month that having braces and meeting new friends at the same time could be stressful. I highly recommend Dr. Masuda. Update: My daughter just got her braces off and her teeth look amazing!!! Dr. Masuda is truly wonderful! read more

Dr. Masuda's office is most excellent. Aside from being very skillful at her craft, she's very friendly and always takes the time to answer all your questions. My case was more complex and required oral and jaw surgeries; her office coordinated all the referrals, x-rays and models needed, which made the entire process for me smooth and seamless. All I had to do was show up at the various appointments. I couldn't be happier with the results. Val and Liza also play a big part in the treatment process and they are spectacular to say the least. The office is awesome in other ways. Since my initial visit, the Giants have won the World Series 3 times, and I've watched all 3 parades at the office. I highly recommend this office to anyone who needs braces either for health reasons, or just wants to improve their smile. read more

We love Dr. Masuda! She's an amazing doctor and the sweetest! Best bedside manner ever. And gentle and so informative!

Dr. Masuda and her staff are top notch and as good as it gets. Dr. Masuda is knowledgeable and is very thorough with her explanations about the treatment processes needed. She gives you options for your treatment allowing you to choose what you want to have done, showing that she cares about the patient's opinion. (For example: The midline of my teeth was taking a long time to align correctly and she asked me whether or not I should continue having the braces or not. My teeth were straight and I could've taken my braces off if I wanted to. Taking into account her professional opinion, I went ahead and followed her advice of having the braces on for a little longer. It's a minor detail but it was totally worth the wait! My smile is bigger and happier than usual :) ) My total treatment was about 2 and a half years. Dr. Masuda is very flexible with her appointments if you have prior commitments. I had my last two years of high school, volunteering, and college that would get take up a lot of time, but Dr. Masuda was always able to find appointment times that were convenient but didn't lag the straightening process. Dr. Masuda, Liza (the receptionist), and Val (the orthodontic assistant) are wonderfully caring, personable, and helpful. The waiting area is clean and organized. There are magazines and a TV running Netflix movies for entertainment while you wait for your appointment. Otherwise you could just talk with the staff because they are so personable and sweet. I always had great conversations about day to day life, TV shows we love/recommend, or the movies that they were showing on the TV in the treatment area. I can honestly say that although I don't miss my braces, I do miss Dr. Masuda, Liza, and Val! I highly recommend this Dr. Masuda and her wonderful staff. read more

Dr Masada is very professional and nurturing with kids. Staff is also professional and nice.

Can never thank Dr. Masuda enough for what she did. I went to several Orthodontists and oral surgeons and was told I needed my pallet removed, split in half to widen, and reattached forward for a class 3 underbite I had at the time. She was able to correct all this with absolutely no surgery. She listened and understood where I was, and was extremely successful doing what others said couldn't be done. Not only that but I was very busy at the time and she was able to work with my crazy schedule as I traveled 40 miles each way to see her. There are no words to describe my gratitude and would never let any I care about go anywhere else. read more

Dr. Masuda and her team are absolutely incredible. My smile and all the Care that came with it was given in the best way that I ever could have thought possible. Thank you guys so much read more

Dr. Masuda is AMAZING. I did Invisalign with her and her expertise helped me to get a GREAT result. She made adult "braces" as painless and effective as possible! Moreover, she and her office staff are kind and fun to be around. Now that I'm done, I actually miss my appointments! I hope she is still practicing here in ten years because I'll definitely take my babies to her when it's their turn to get pretty straight teeth!! read more

Dr. Masuda was my doctor first, before I took my son (9) to her. She is professional, warm and helpful, as is her staff Liza (reception) and Val (Ortho assistant). She helped me with my Invisalign and helped my son to stop sucking thumb in order to get his braces. Amazing!!! The office is very conveniently located. I couldn't be happier! read more
