I went in for a root canal, and Paul took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure beforehand. The treatment lasted a little over an hour and was not painful. Overall, I would recommend Dr. Paul Nguyen to anyone needing a root canal. Heidi at reception was also very nice and welcoming. read more

First-time patient with Dr. Jeff Nguyen. I am extremely satisfied with his professional service, and his front office assistant is very nice and helpful.

This is my third root canal by Dr. Nguyen. I keep coming back for his SKILL as an endodontist. Yes, the office is courteous (especially Heide, the front office manager who stays until the last patient is gone) and accommodating, but as a patient you depend on the experience and management of the dental professional. In fact, they got me in the same day because of the pain I was suffering. Last time, he worked through his lunch hour to work on my tooth. Dr. Nguyen ensures a PAINLESS root canal, so much that I am not afraid to get one. Previous dentists have remarked twice on how "perfect' the root canal shows up on my dental X-rays, so I know he is good! He does not rush because he wants the best outcome for the patient. He was able to make the smallest hole in my crown to preserve it while doing the root canal, He is like an artist of teeth, he is that good. You will be ensured the best care and root canal by coming to Dr. Nguyen. TRUST ME. read more

I've been to this office several times. My first endodontist was Dr. Paul Nguyen. When I had issues with my teeth, he was very serious and focused on helping me. He was great to work with, and I'm happy with the results he provided. The office was neat and well-organized. He explained everything clearly and thoroughly regarding my tooth problems. read more

I just want to thank Dr. Nguyen for the time and excellent care I received the other day. I was not going to make it through the weekend with the pain and he was able to get me in same day through the lunch hour. He really took the time to ensure the job was done well. He warned there may be some lingering soreness, but I feel he did the job so well I had little to no pain by that evening. I've had a great pain free weekend thanks to his work! He was a great person to meet and I'm glad I had his care! Dr. V. read more

I made an appointment with Heidi, the receptionist who was very detailed and friendly. She was able to get me in to see the doctor next day. Once I entered I was greeted by Heidi and Dr. Nguyen. Had a wonderful conversation about time change and music, which they were playing classic rock and oldies! Dr. Nguyen was quick and efficient! He went over what he was going to do to figure out my teeth situation. Ended up doing a CT scan to get into a better understanding. Found out that I needed a root canal! Heidi went over the insurance and charges and steps to take. Dr. Nguyen was able to get my root canal done in less than 30 minutes. Quick and efficient, "quifficient!" Dr. Nguyen then went over next steps, any possible issues, medications I can take. And the best news? I don't have to wait to eat after the procedure. I would say that Hiedi and the doctor were very pleasant, direct, super friendly, and efficient. If I need to see anything in endodontics, Dr. Paul Nguyen is 5 stars! read more

The only pleasant part of needing a root canal was coming to Dr Nguyen. He and his staff understood how painful of a situation it was (and often is for many people who come knocking on their door). They were able to accommodate me in a reasonable time and once I was anesthetized I knew that the painful and unpleasant part of the experience was over with and all behind me. On the technical side; my primary dentist (who restored the tooth afterwards) praised Dr Nguyen for his thoroughness and attention to detail; I am sure to no surprise as Dr Nguyen has many years of experience and specializes in root canal treatment. Most root canals are avoidable with good hygiene, regular dental checkups and addressing issues early on, but sometimes it can happen and when it does you can be rest assured that you will be in good hands if you come see Dr Nguyen; I know I will should it ever happen again. read more

I so appreciate the time Dr. Nguyen took to explain his recommendation for my course of treatment. He was caring and thorough. Aside from the fact that I was there for a problem, both Heidi in the office and Dr. Nguyen made it a very positive, even pleasant experience. read more

Our visit with Dr. Paul Nguyen was excellent. He was very thorough and took the time to explain and clarify everything. He is very skilled and experienced. He was very attentive to our concerns and needs and took the time to address them. read more

I had the best experience, and if you need a dentist that will make you feel comfortable and not feel a thing during your procedure, i definitely recommend Paul. His office is very well kept and very clean. I can't say enough good things about my experience. My procedure was a root canal and was done a week ago today and I've not had any issues at all. I'm very happy with my results. I was nervous but had nothing to worry about as it was a positive experience. Thank you to this amazing dentist! read more

A few weeks ago I had a toothache and infection on one of my teeth so I called Dr. Paul Nguyen Dental Office to set up an appointment. He started and finished the root canal in record time. I left the dental office with a perfect root canal. All the treatment was painless and without any discomfort. For me Dr. Paul Nguyen, due to his professionalism, experience and charisma, he is the number one endodontist in Orange County. Thank you Dr. Nguyen. Atte. Juan Carlos Martínez read more

Dr. Paul N T Nguyen was recommended by our family dentist Dr. Keith Kodama for an emergency root canal for my son's tooth (5/29/2024). Dr. Nguyen was very knowledgable on his service. He also has this presence of calmness that makes you feel that everything will be alright. He was also very nice to fix my son's tooth so he would look presentable while waiting for his crown. I definitely would recommend Dr. Nguyen to everybody anytime! A big big thank you Dr. Nguyen! read more

Dr. Nguyen and Heidi (who works the front desk) are completely transparent about the root canal that I recently completed. You can tell they care about the patient, and they go above and beyond. I've never had a root canal done before, and it was a painless procedure. Not even sure why root canals have such a negative connotation :) read more

I was sent to Dr. Nguyen by my primary dentist Dr. Shea for an emergency root canal in June. Dr. Nguyen took me the same day and was so patient and kind through the procedure. He carefully explained every step and painlessly completed the root canal. He is very calming and professional. When I needed another procedure in January I immediately called Dr. Nguyen. His office manager Heide scheduled an appointment and quickly handled my new insurance information. She is a wonderful asset to his practice. I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen! read more

Per my dentist referral, I went to Dr. Nguyen to get a root canal treatment. The staff and dr are super nice and polite! And they also take safety measures seriously during this time. After the doctor took a few additional x ray and carefully looked at my teeth. He recommend me to do a root canal and explained to me why and the whole procedure. He did it very quickly within 1.5 hours, and the whole procedure was close to painless. After the procedure, the doctor explained to me what I need to do after. The staff Heidi went over the insurance with me careful and explained how much the insurance will cover and what is my out of pocket cost will be. Will recommend this business to others! read more

Went in for a root canal. Dr. Paul Nguyen is very informative, and helps explain the issues and process with very relatable analogies. Dr. Paul Nguyen diagnosed the correct tooth when my primary dentist identified it to be a different tooth. The root canal procedure was pretty painless, smooth, and swift. His staff, Heidi is very friendly, and thorough. The office is welcoming, and really treats you like you're a family member that is his personal patient, and not just another person where he has to immediately attend to another person waiting. Dr Nguyen actually takes the time to make sure the follow up procedure is explained thoroughly. Unfortunately I have more teeth issues, but I will definitely be going back to him. read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Paul Nguyen--he's hands down the best dentist I've ever had. After a previous dentist completely botched my root canal, I was dealing with constant discomfort and was worried I'd never get it fixed properly. Dr. Nguyen not only corrected the mess but also gave me a brand-new one with such precision and care that I didn't feel a thing during the procedure. His technique is on another level, and for the first time, I actually felt at ease in a dental chair. I drove all the way from Los Angeles to Irvine just to see him, and it was absolutely worth it. If you want a dentist who truly knows what he's doing and makes the process painless, Dr. Nguyen is the one. read more

I've always heard that a root canal can be one of the most unpleasant experiences a person can endure. Right up there with passing a kidney stone or giving birth. And having worked in the dental industry for 13 years, I've seen and heard many horror stories, including the notion that "a root canal is a future implant case." So I had no shortage of trepidation when my dentist suggested today that I likely had need of endodontic treatment. Fortunately, she referred me to Dr. Nguyen, whose impeccable credentials helped to ease some of my initial fear. My experience only improved from there. First, his office was able to adjust their appointment calendar to fit me in within the hour. The office manager was extremely gracious and polite, and the check-in process was simple and straightforward. Dr. Nguyen proceeded to introduce himself, take a few quick X-rays, run a few tests, and then explain to me what I was facing, what my options were, and what different scenarios we might encounter. He was so engaging, knowledgeable, and clearly competent that I quickly agreed to the dreaded root canal treatment. Though I kept waiting for the worst to manifest, I'm pleased to report that it never did. The procedure was complete in about an hour's time and, to my pleasant surprise, virtually pain-free. Every time I felt a twinge or bit of pressure that I feared might signal a sharper pain to come, I was wrong, the sensation quickly subsiding. The music was calming, and it was clear throughout that Dr. Nguyen was moving quickly, yet thoroughly, like an artist who has done this countless times. Which, of course, he has! When it was finished, he showed me the post-op X-ray so that I could see the flawless results. Mine was a molar, with multiple roots (including an extra one). All were expertly filled, clear down to the microscopic tips. He took the extra time to provide thorough post-op instructions, hand-write additional instructions, and answer questions. Hours later, with the anesthesia fully worn off, I'm pleased to say that all discomfort I was feeling in the area prior to treatment is completely gone! Obviously, it's best if you never have the need for a root canal at all. But if you do, I heartily recommend Dr. Nguyen, without reservation. Swift service, attentive chairside manner, incredible expertise, excellent documentation, and an affordable fee made this frightening experience a relative breeze. Had I been referred elsewhere, who knows? But in Dr. Nguyen's capable hands, at least, my root canal turned out to be nothing to fear. read more

I was referred to Dr. Nguyen for a root canal. Heidi was so helpful in scheduling the appointments. Dr. Nguyen did tests at the first visit to confirm which tooth was the problem and explained everything as he did the testing. I wasn't able to have the root canal that day, so I went back for the root canal on a different day. Dr. Nguyen made my first root canal very easy. I will definitely go back to him if I ever need another root canal. read more

I was quite hesitant and was putting off my dental abses procedure as much as I could due to a childhood trauma from a dentist many years ago.

She was so polite, patient, and helpful by answering all of my questions. I saw Heidi the day of my appointment too. She checked me in and continued to have a calming energy. I felt she cared about my visit and I was not just a body filling a chair. Dr. Nguyen was amazing! He was very detailed in his assessment, he took the time to explain everything to me until I was comfortable making a decision how to proceed with my tooth.

Dr. Nguyen did an excellent job on my tooth. I had been avoiding treatment because of past experiences with Endodontist. However, Dr. Nguyen's expertise in his field made me understand that am expert can make all the difference. I was in his office and out with excellent results.

Instead, he moved efficiently and expertly. And he and his staff made me feel very at ease during the treatment. read more

Dr. Nguyen did a great job on my root canal. Very professional and skillful. Will recommend.

I deliberately waited one day before posting my impressions of Dr Nguyen's practice. So this is probably the most all around exceptional provider I have had the good fortune to have found. Thankfully we don't meet frequently, almost exclusively in a stressful situation. My first contact on this visit was from the office Manager Ms Heidi. She called me on a Thurs. expressing concern that I may be experiencing pain over the weekend and she might try to squeeze me into the schedule. This extra effort to reach out with compassion and concern was even before I had any contact with the office. On arriving I had forgotten my eyeglasses (very preoccupied heading to DDS office) when having difficulty filling out some forms, Ms Heidi offered me my choice of several different glasses which she readily had available. Dr Nguyen was happy to see me and put me at ease immediately. He took the time to intently listen to my symptoms, and took time to form a detailed plan, which he then shared with me. He had many tools, including advanced imaging, all of which gave me utmost confidence that I was safe and in highly skilled hands. This was not a simple case, and took quite awhile to complete, but never did I experience any pain or discomfort. Dr Nguyen went above and beyond to ensure that this patient was thoroughly cared for and completely treated. He took time to explain, in detail, my aftercare and what my responsibilities were to make sure that everything went according to his plan. If you have a need for an expert in the practice of highly skilled and compassionate Endodontics there simply is no one more competent and thorough than Paul N.T. Nguyen,, D.D.S. PS BIG love to Ms Heidi ! read more

After months of dealing with a toothache and a Ct-Scan later, I was recommended to have treatment done by Dr. Paul Nguyen. Of course, I was nervous, especially after having dealt with bad dental results in the past. Once I arrived to his office, my nerves were put to ease with his caring and superb bedside manner. He was extremely knowledgeable and diligently went over the dental procedure step by step with me. After only 45mins, he said, "we are done." I couldn't believe it, I've had a root canal done before which took 2 1/2, almost 3 hours!! He redid the x-ray and showed the comparison of the before and after, it looked amazing! Thank you again for a great visit! read more

You don't really need to visit endodontist unless you need a root canal done, so in our lifetime we probably only need to visit once or twice unless you got jacked up teeth. In my case, I had a dental accident where I needed 5 root canal. I made a call to their office and talked with Heidi. She quickly scheduled me in for my root canal work. I finally finished my 5th root canal in early 2022. Dr Nguyen made my visits very pleasant. He explained everything thoroughly and made me feel very comfortable during the procedures. I highly recommend Dr Nguyen if you ever needed a root canal job!! read more
