Deanna was my dental hygienist, and she took such great care of me. Getting a cleaning isn't always the most comfortable experience, but she immediately put me at ease. She was very gentle, listened to my concerns, addressed all of my needs thoughtfully, and properly educated me on prevention and maintaining good oral health. Before my appointment was over, she had Dr. Khan examine me to see whether braces or Invisalign would be a better option for me. I'm looking forward to hearing back from them and continuing my future dental care with their office.

However, I found the pricing for ceramic crowns to be significantly higher than expected. I was quoted approximately $2,500 for a crown with the necessary foundation work, which seems well above the typical rates in the Huntington Beach area. In my experience, comparable treatment can be found at a lower cost in nearby Newport Beach. Additionally, the office is on the smaller side, and parking is limited, which can make visits a bit less convenient. Sorry, Dr. Khan--your expertise is priceless... unfortunately, my wallet strongly disagrees. LOL

After my longtime dentist retired to become a teacher, I spent quite a while searching for a new…read moredentist. I specifically wanted a UCLA-trained dentist because I have always appreciated the techniques, attention to detail, and level of care they provide. I am so happy I found Huntington Beach Prosthodontics. Dr. Janelle Cheong did my cleaning, and she was incredibly thorough, kind, and gentle. She carefully examined every tooth, identified any problem areas, and took the time to explain everything to me. She never made me feel rushed, and I truly appreciated how genuine and caring she was. You can tell she really cares about her patients. I also saw Dr. Favian Cheong to repair a cracked filling, and I think that's the real test of a dental office. He was exceptionally gentle. I honestly didn't even feel the numbing injection. Throughout the procedure, he checked on me constantly, made sure I was comfortable, and gave me small breaks when I needed them. I also had a white spot on one of my teeth that I didn't think could be fixed. Dr. Cheong explained that it was actually a small surface cavity and was able to treat it quickly without any numbing. He explained everything he was doing and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. I've always struggled with going to the dentist because of a traumatic childhood experience. On top of that, I've recently been dealing with health issues affecting my ears, so dental visits have been especially difficult. This is the first office in a long time where I truly felt at peace. Another thing I really appreciated was the front office staff. They carefully reviewed all of my treatment costs before any work was done, so there were no surprises or confusing billing afterward. One thing that really sets this practice apart is that the dentists perform the cleanings themselves, with assistance from their dental assistants. That level of involvement makes a noticeable difference. It was one of the most thorough cleanings I've ever had. Dr. Janelle Cheong and Dr. Favian Cheong recently took over this practice, and it shows how much they care about providing exceptional dentistry. They are warm, genuine people who treat patients with kindness, respect, and compassion. If you're looking for a dentist who is honest, highly skilled, incredibly gentle, and truly takes the time to care for you, I highly recommend Huntington Beach Prosthodontics. I'm so grateful I found them

Upon bringing my child in for a basic cleaning, I heard the screeching sound of him screaming! Ive never heard him scream that way before it was so disturbing that I jumped out of my chair and ran back there to where he was sitting. I finally got him to tell me what was wrong, and he said that then tech had punctured his mouth and gums with her long claw fingernails. I immediately confronted her, and she went in the back room and cut her nails off, but the damage was already done. As I am walking out, the receptionist was laughing and said that "boys are the biggest crybabies". The Doctor was there and did nothing about it, as if it was just another day at the office. I did not stick around for his cleaning as i was too furious with the sadistic behavior of these so called humans.

For years I felt unheard or dismissed when sharing concerns about my dental health, with my worries minimized and the advice always reduced to "just brush and floss more." Dr. Ta completely changed that experience for me. She genuinely listens, prioritizes my comfort, and has an incredible gentle touch -- I never feel a thing, even through a root canal and wisdom tooth extraction! I also love the whole Ta family team. Christine at the front desk is warm, welcoming, and always makes sure I fully understand my payment options. Tracy Ta I believe also does my cleanings and creates such a judgment-free environment -- she never makes me feel bad about my flossing habits and does a fantastic job every time. Every single staff member has been kind and attentive across all my visits. I recommend Serena Smiles to everyone I know and can't imagine going anywhere else!

Finally after 4 years of thinking about it I finally consulted at a few spots. Serene Smiles Dental was my last stop to get another opinion on it and make sure the quotes I was getting elsewhere was within the same price range. What made me ultimately decided on this spot to go through with my treatment was how knowledgeable and kind everyone at the office was. Dr. Phu was the one that did my consult, Christine was the one that that helped me with the price break down and helps with my scans and the a kind gentlemen did all of my other scans. They weren't pushy, they told me that I could take the price breakdown home and think about what was going to be best for me either paying in full, payment plans and/or insurance. Glad I decided to do one last consult here. Love the space and loved the team. Would recommend to all of my friends or family. Also wanted to note, I decided to do the suresmile aligners!

I used to see Rachel but since she has left I have not seen anyone that is as good as she was. And the dentists are always changing. It's a revolving door. They have no customer service. Always upselling too. They just apologize like that makes it better. People plan for appointments months out so when they cancel it puts their customers out. Sad but time to find a new dentist

I came here on a family recommendation but did not have a great experience with the office…read more Dr. Phuong is very kind as are the staff here. Very friendly and seem to genuinely care - I'll give them that. However, this was my first time at this office (I'm looking for a new dentist after moving) and immediatly the assistant took me to a room and said "we're going to do a huge amount of x-rays so settle in." I asked to confirm that they were covered by insurance and she said she'd check. It took 40 minutes to do more x-rays than I've ever done at any dentist office. I again said "and you're sure these are covered" and the assistant said "yes, your insurance covers this set once every 5 years." I was annoyed. They cover these once every 5 years and you're using this benefit and I haven't even been introduced to the dentist yet? Seemed very strange and like they were just glad I was there so they could bill the insurance. The cleaning itself was long as well. An hour. It was done by Dr. Phuong AND an assistant. I've never had two people for a cleaning. I asked why so long and they said they always schedule an hour. They use the electronic tooth scraper thing but they had a separate water pick, separate sucker, and separate mirror all in my mouth at the same time. I have a bad gag reflex and this was too many instruments in my mouth at once. The assistant held the water tube, and rested the suck on the side of my mouth, which kept getting twisted. I told them of my gag reflex repeatedly but it seemed there was not much they could do. I explained that my previous dentist had an electronic scraper too but we didn't have separate water and sucker in my mouth the whole time too. They found this surprising. I asked a hygienist friend about this later and she said it sounded like the electronic scraper was broken as they always have the water built in. She said it's really dentists choice whether they have the sucker in your mouth the whole time. My last dentist didn't (and certainly never hung it on the corner of my mouth). Bu the kicker is that a few days later, I got a message from the receptionist that said I have a $50 copay and my insurance will cover cleanings every 3 months (instead of 6) so I should call her to schedule an earlier appointment. First of all - why would I come in twice as often (4 times a year!) just because my insurance would pay for it? My teeth are in good shape. I haven't had a cavity in over a decade. I'm young. I'm not going to do that just because my insurance will cover it. Secondly, I've never had a co-pay for a cleaning. I called my insurance to see if something had changed. They said that this dentist billed for "periodontal cleaning" instead of "profalaxis cleaning." I called and asked the receptionist and she said "oh, that's because you have a history of deep cleaning." Um, no I do not. I've never had a deep cleaning in my life. Even if I had - why would you charge more for something just because someone had a history of something else? This cleaning was just like all the other cleanings I've done in my life. She said it must be a mistake, she asked if I was sure I hadn't had a deep cleaning before (Yeah, I'm sure!), and she'd get ahold of my insurance to fix it. I feel like this office was more interested in what they can bill my insurance for than my actual care. I won't be returning.

My wife and I have both been patients of Dr. Mai for 2 or 3 years…read more We started there when I had a crown come off, and got an appointment a short time afterward. That visit ended with an extraction. One of the first things that I noticed was that Dr. Mai is very focused on pain management. In that visit and subsequent visits, there were a few times when she stopped a procedure, administered more anesthetic, and waited for it to take effect. That's certainly good for the patient. Our most recent visit occurred after my wife had a crown come off. That too required an extraction, because the tooth underneath had decayed too much to preserve. Again, Dr. Mai handled the whole procedure without pain for the patient. In a follow-up visit to fit a partial denture, Dr. Mai spent nearly an hour with 4 or 5 or more cycles of fitting, getting comments, taking the device out and removing some of the support structure and smoothing the edges. She didn't stop until the patient reported that it felt good. After an initial exam, Dr. Mai takes plenty of time to discuss your issues and show you current imagery of the affected areas. This includes telling the patient the treatment options and the pros and cons of each. A staff assistant computes and prints a cost for the various options and gives you ample time to decide, and will allow you to go home and give it more thought. The charges, by the way, are very reasonable, especially for the amount and time of work involved. I think we have both seen Dr. Mai on all her visits. If we did see Dr. Phuong on any of them, she treated us just as well. One extra gesture that stood out -- my wife is diabetic, and on one lengthy visit she started to feel symptoms of low glucose (hypoglycemia). Dr. Mai went to her office and brought back a nutritional shake that she had brought in for her own lunch. That kindness and compassion typifies this whole practice.
