I have been with NEW SMILE for about 9 months and they have been so accommodating. Staff are very friendly & knowledgeable, they inform me well so I never feel lost with my visits. I am satisfied with the progress I've had so far since transferring here, with this care they have given me more confidence with my smile. I am very excited for the final results. I definitely recommend them read more

This dental clinic is terrible. Last time, my son and daughter had braces, and when they finished, their teeth were crooked and not aligned. When we went to ask, the doctor said it was due to the jaw. I proved it wasn't the jaw, so the doctor switched to saying it was the teeth. I showed him that before the braces, my children's teeth weren't like that, but the doctor blamed it on the fact that they had suggested extracting teeth earlier. I told him that he had said he would see if it was impossible to do it, and if not, he wouldn't. That's the dentist's job; he knows what should and shouldn't be done. He's still ignoring it and hasn't made any adjustments. After the braces, their teeth look worse than before. The worst part is that I had both of them treated at the same time. read more

Thank God for this dentist office. the staff is absolutely amazing and doc, is true gem! he is patient, informative, and empathetic. my daughter needs braces like yesterday! she is so insecure about her teeth and now she is a preteen so her confidence took a big hit. doc made a treatment plan to get her nice and straight. the 3D imaging had her and i almost in tears with the way her future teeth will look. simply beautiful. and the office is crazy modern! prices cant be beat. i was quoted 1k less than the other consultation. yes, 1k!!!!! alexis and i are beyond grateful and wont go anywhere else. read more

We were referred to NSO by our general dentist, Dr. Tath @ Mossdale Dental. My daughter went through her spacers phase and then just got her braces on a few months ago. The whole process was smooth, and staff are usually friendly and personable. However, my only gripe is that I wished they had more availability. Their schedule is usually tight and books up quickly, leaving very little room to reschedule for emergencies. The office does offer payment options and take Care credit as well. I like that they offer patients an area to brush prior to being seen. They take care of explaining things in a way that is understandable and after care instructions and recommendations provided are easy to follow. Reasonable pricing and office ambiance is nice and calm. read more

If I am going to spend money on something that my child needed especially expensive oral care, I'd rather spend it on a business that provides excellent service. So far, this exceeded my expectations since I already knew that my child will need braces in the near future. They set me up with a plan to better understand his oral needs and started him off in the right path, and they worked with me financially. The staff and the assistants were very receptive and helpful especially Dr. Hu who's very personable. We are looking forward to when my son's ready for that dreaded braces (and financial costs that comes with it) and maintain great business with Dr. Hu and his establishment. read more

After three kids and my constant teeth grinding my dentist noticed my teeth shifting. So, he suggested a braces consultation. From the calling about the consultation to my most recent appointment, Dr Hu and his entire staff have been very helpful, informative and professional. They helped me figure out how my insurance benefits work and what type of orthodontia worked the best for me. During the pandemic I found myself running out of bands and they were able to send me some through the mail. The whole experience has been the best I could hope for. I even have my daughter coming to see Dr Hu. She's been in braces for about 5 years now. After we moved from the East Coast, I went with another orthodontist first and regretted it right away. After only one visit, Dr Hu has been able to help her out (she has a very difficult problem) and we've gotten more from her visits with Dr Hu than we did with any previous orthodontist. I have also taken my 10 year old to see Dr Hu for a consultation. Since we are in the pre-orthodontia stage, this was merely for getting a game plan together since we know my son is going to need them. Dr Hu explained our options and we went with the more gentler route for now. I would highly recommend New Smile Orthodontics to anyone needing braces. They are easy to schedule with, very helpful, and willing to explain any limitations that they see may be a problem. read more

I know I already wrote a review on this business but the customer service surprises me ever single time I either go in or call. I have been grinding my teeth really bad to the point where it wakes me up. I called the business and spoke to Daisy. She was so helpful so sweet and literally took her time to help me and ask me questions on why I may be grinding my teeth. She spoke to me on the phone like a friend. She recommended me a night guard for braces, she then said if that doesn't work call back to see if there is anything else they can do. I'm so glad they are my orthodontist. read more

I love this office. I am happy but also sad today. Because I just TOOK my braces off today. Happy because I got a perfect big smile now after Dr. Hu corrected my bad teeth alignment. I am also sad because I can't go to the office and bug them often from now on. I LOVE EVERYONE! Yes!!! Everyone in the office!!! They are nice and always greet you with their big smiles. (Of course, they have always have perfect smile). They are also so patience with all your request. I enjoyed every single service in the office. Dr. Hu, I couldn't use any words to appreciate his help. He's such a perfectionist. Your teeth is such an art work. He will do all the best to make them look perfect. And he also make all the effort to accommodate your schedule. Anyway, I will definitely recommend this office to anyone. Specially to adult patient, you will definitely have excellent experience from Dr. Hu's office. read more

New Smile Orthodontics - Orthodontists Near Me - Tracy, California

Excellent service right from the start, I appreciated the way they handled the whole process. Professionally as well as friendly! My son was asked questions and taken seriously although he is only 14 yrs old, they cared very much about his opinions and concerns, this was great to see! I am so happy we chose this orthodontist, esp the advanced care they offer and the braces are too cool! My son wanted Invisalign and although he will get them, first he will have to wear braces for 10 Months but the braces they offer are so nice, clear ceramic, they literally look like little diamonds on the teeth, super nice looking braces. I am just so grateful we chose these guys!!! read more

New Smile Orthodontics - Before braces! I'll post the after pic next week once they get placed! - Orthodontists Near Me - Tracy, California

I went to this place for my kid's dental and was surprised that they do not offer any basic dental services. They also did not give this information in advance. I guess i should have understood by looking at the name. Just took two stars for this reason. Overall they are very professional and nice people. I may go to them for any Orthodontics work. read more

Dr Hu and his staff are exceptional! They are always willing to go that extra mile to make sure both my daughters needs are met! They truly want to please their clients! Their office is always well cleaned and the staff are always professional and friendly! I believe that Dr. Hu has mastered the art of the Ortho world here in Tracy. He's professional and knows what's best for the patient! When my first daughter got her top braces on Dr. Hu recommended that she'd get the Herbst appliance...both my daughter and I were on the fence..who wants a contraption such as the Herbst appliance in their mouth for close to a year BUT Dr. Hu assured us that it's the best and quickest way to fix her narrow mouth and over bite. So we agreed actually my daughter agreed! WELL.. I'm so glad we did! This contraption so worth it! I could see a difference within the first few months..I honestly couldn't believe how much her upper jaw widen and upon belief more room/space in between her once crowded and over bite upper jaw! So if your on the fence like we were don't be...Dr. Hu knows best and I've seen the beautiful results of this Herbst masterpiece...I promise you won't be disappointed! read more

Visiting an ortho for the first time was nothing short of an amazing experience. Their front staff is so organized, they have follow up and follow through. No waiting. State of the art technology for a clinic existing for some time in the city of Tracy. Dr. Hu is very pleasant, thorough and very concise with his approach and recommendations. His clinic assistant, Mei-Ling was absolutely professional, proficient and well-versed in what she is doing. It was overall, such a great experience to be under their care. It made the patient, my 17-year old, feel quite comfortable with what's ahead. read more

WOW! I was looking for more stars but five I guess will do! The people are amazing and extremely kind! Dr Hu is the best! If you don't understand something they explain again without being frustrated. They even laugh at bad jokes! Great place! I got my braces off today and couldn't have asked for a better smile! Thank you Dr Hu and staff!! read more

New Smile Orthodontics - My new smile! - Orthodontists Near Me - Tracy, California

I am a new patient of Dr. Hu, but I did know of his office before this initial visit. He was so kind and generous to donate an electric toothbrush and gift certificate to George Kelly's Fall Festival. I happened to have won that basket and he said the certificate was money that went to the school of my choice...even better it went to my 5th grade students classroom last year. I was so thankful that he donated those generous gifts to our school! A year has passed and I wanted to inquire about my teeth shifting after many years not wearing my retainers after I got my braces off (20+ years ago). His staff was so kind and welcoming. I'm sure they saw that my teeth were pretty much straight and probably didn't need much ortho work, but they still treated me as a patient that had something that needed to be fixed. It turns out, with all their up to date technology and x-rays, they were able to see that my teeth had some other issues that I didn't even know was causing my shifting. The initial appointment takes about 45 min-1 hour because they take photos of your mouth and even face/jaw, x rays, and project them on a big screen in a private office so they can show you what they see. Then, they talk about possible plans that they can create to help with your specific issue. Never did I feel like they were pushing me for money...I truly felt that they were sincere in their practice and they were simply doing what was best for me as their patient. They did the cost breakdown of everything and did offer options that would cost extra, but they did mention that it was totally optional. I ended up needing invisilign to help shift my teeth back to where they should be, and Dr. Hu had me come in one more time so that his office could get teeth molds ready for the invisilign company. I know that I had teeth molds done before where they shove a ton of clay stuff in your mouth to the point of it being uncomfortable, but NOT at New Smile Orthodontics:) Dr. Hu has invested in his office and it shows, because he does NOT do the nasty mouth molds. Instead, they scan your teeth with a disposable wand and it takes digital images of your mouth. No pain or disgusting stuff in your mouth whatsoever!!!! Also, on a side note, he did have a clean and modern facility that even had mood lighting in the room with great music from Pandora. I highly recommend Dr. Hu!!!!! read more

When we started at New Smile, our oldest had severe crowding and an adult tooth that was coming in backwards. During our first visit with Dr Hu, he developed a plan for her and laid out everything regarding what the process would entail and the expectations. We decided to move forward and we are amazed with the results. She now has a beautiful smile! Dr Hu is also working with two more of our children and we are excited to see the finished results. The staff at New Smile are always pleasant and accommodating. We highly recommend New Smile! read more

I cannot thank Dr. Hu and his entire staff enough for the experience throughout my treatment years. Everyone is so pleasant, friendly and kind. Dr. Hu and his staff were always able to address any of my concerns whether it was a simple xray or billing enquiries. I felt very comfortable and I strong trusted the work of Dr. Hu. If you're looking for an Ortho in the area, this is the place to go. They work very well with people of all ages. I had braces as an adult and my child should need braces in the next couple years and I will definitely be brining my child to Dr. Hu for treatment when it is time. read more

Thank you Dr Hu & staff for this well beginning that should end well. read more

We've been blessed to have Dr. Nelson Hu and his staff in our neighborhood. We've known him for 15 years. He's my eldest son's first orthodontist and we have never looked anywhere else ever since. He can work well with all ages. My eldest when he was 7, had very complicated teeth and was insecure about it, now he brags he has perfect teeth. Myself at 35 then never thought I can have the smile that I have now. He was able to convince me he can help me and make what I wanted possible. And he did! Thank you Dr. Hu! I am truly forever grateful! Now, it's my twin boys turn at 14 years old to have braces and I am rest assured they are in good hands. His staff is always courteous, transparent and extremely helpful with regards to scheduling and payments. Their admin process is extremely streamlined- text and email reminders for upcoming appointments and easy re scheduling in the event of emergencies. They are also up to date with the current treatments and technology. We are amazed at how things have changed since our last visit. And last but not the least, Dr. Hu and his staff treats us like family and that's what I love about coming here. read more

Dr. Hu and his staff have made getting braces for our daughter Jewel as good of an experience as possible. Getting braces is full of unknowns and Dr. Hu has made the process easier for us.

They truly care about their patients. read more

Been here for a long time and let's me say this: The change from the years of my teeth was then before and how they look now. I can't be any happier especially with a great team this place has. Always in a good mood, able to connect very well with you, and always checking up on you whether it's on your braces or in life. They will literally make you feel like a family here and always want to make sure you have the best smile both in and out of the door from the moment you step in. 10/10 would totally recommend read more

Dr. Hu is awesome! My older son 15years old just finished braces. My son is so happy for his service! Thank you Dr. Hu!!! read more

I want to thank Dr. Hu and his wonderful staff for the exceptional work they performed on my teeth. I had perfect teeth when I was younger but over "many" years, my teeth shifted creating a gap in the lower front. Because of my age I was reluctant thinking it's too late and my teeth aren't going to move but I decided to see an orthodontist anyway. I found New Smiles Orthodontics because of the great reviews I read on Yelp and I'm big on reviews, so I paid a visit. The initial consultation was very thorough and the front office did an excellent job explaining the entire process from start to finish. After 33 months of "metal mouth" I finally had my braces removed and I'm very happy with my teeth. More so, I was very happy with the exceptional treatment I received from every single staff member. Very friendly, courteous and very professional. Excellent work!! read more

My case was a little unique. I was undergoing Invisalign treatment for 4 years with my prior orthodontist but was unsatisfied with the results I was getting. My prior orthodontist then transferred me to get traditional braces at New Smile. After my consultation with Dr. Hu, he told me that he would complete my treatment without charging me any additional expenses! That compassionate gesture alone made me realize New Smile was going to be a great fit for me. My experience at the office was always smooth. The check-in process is easy and I never waited more than 10 minutes to be seen by a staff member. Dr. Hu and his staff were all extremely friendly and helpful during my appointments. I was always informed of what I would be undergoing at each office visit. After a year of traditional braces with New Smile, I finally have the smile I've been wanting! I am so grateful to Dr. Hu and his staff. Thank you for being so accommodating and ending my long struggle for perfect teeth! read more

Based on recommendations from family members, I (my parents) made the decision to travel from Modesto to Tracy for every appointment. I underwent orthodontic procedure there for approx. three years and now I've been braces free for about five. Dr. Hu and his staff have always been great to me and when the braces came off, the feeling was exceptional. If I ever had to get braces again (which I won't because Dr. Hu did a great job) New Smile Orthodontics would be my first choice. read more

They are all very professional and have awesome personalities!

It allowed me flexibility with eating foods, which I really liked. Go experience Dr. Hu and his wonderful staff for your self! read more

This is a LONG overdue review. My treatment lasted for almost 3 years. This was my 2nd round of braces, the first one being when I was a teenager. Fast, forward to about 15 years, and I finally had enough money to really get on with this. Dr. Hu and the whole staff.....I can't say enough good things about them. Very professional, clean facility, and they made the office a welcoming environment. The pre-treatment process was detailed and thorough. The financial part was explained in detail. I love my set of chompers now. I'm a satisfied client. =) As you can see with my other reviews, I tend to focus on the negative of businesses. Not this one. This one deserves a positive review. They deserve my 5 stars! =) Thanks Dr. Hu and Staff! read more

Dr. Hu and his excellent staff deserves "Five Star". They know how to take care of people. My daughter's treatment took more than one year but all appointments and treatments were very smooth and excellent at all. Dr. Hu and his staff really knows what professionalism is all about. When my daughter needed help in weekend, Dr. Hu called us right away and provided good advice. He also reserved time in the following Monday to take care of my daughter. Dr. Hu treats my son as well. I strongly recommended my coworkers and friends. Yes, I only recommend "THE BEST" to my friends. read more

I've never been late to anything because of an appointment, and probably the most important, the staff are friendly and always seem happy to be at work.
