    Preservation Dentistry! I've had such a positive experience here. Dr. Trieu is not only kind but truly takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable and fully understand your dental care. I never feel rushed, and he's always happy to answer my questions, which makes each visit stress-free. The dental clinic is clean, calm, and welcoming, and the staff is both friendly and professional. I had a routine dental cleaning and check up with May, the dental hygienist, and she was amazing! Dr. Trieu and the hygienist worked together and taught me how to take care of my teeth properly so I can avoid needing any treatment. What I appreciate most is their honesty and the conservative approach. They don't push unnecessary procedures, which has saved me a lot of money! I also brought my son for his first visit, and he also had a great experience with the dentist. It's such a relief knowing I can trust Preservation Dentistry for our family dentistry needs in one place. If you're in Irvine and need a dentist who genuinely cares and makes each visit a breeze, I highly recommend Dr. Trieu and his team. I actually look forward to seeing my dentist!

    I've lived out of state for several years now and still fly in just to go to Preservation Dentistry. That alone should say how much I appreciate the kind of care I receive from Dr Trieu and his team. Everyone at the office greets you with warmth. The office is clean and updated, with state of the arts equipment. Dr Trieu truly cares about his patients. He spends time educating you on the proper habits so that you can maintain good oral health and avoid unnecessary procedures. If he can save a tooth, he will. If he can help you save money, he will. A very different mindset from most other dentists who will jump at every opportunity to do a filling or root canal. If a procedure is absolutely necessary, he will put in the extra time and effort to make sure it is done right, on first attempt. Had I had found them earlier, all my root canals done at other offices could have been avoided. Dental hygienist May does wonderful work on my teeth cleaning. She is thorough at every visit, never rushing through the process. She, too, cares about people's teeth. She wants nothing more than to help you improve your oral health. You will learn some great trips and tricks that actually work. Together with Dr Trieu, their preventative approach have kept my teeth in good shape. Truly grateful to have them both care after me. I highly recommend going to them for all your dental needs.

    cerec machine, making my same day partial crown in office!

    Dr. Trieu is exceptional. I've worked with many dentists and as a dental hygienist myself, his attention to detail is one-of-a-kind. I had a big cavity on my tooth that was hurting and other dentists in Washington suggested I need a root canal and a crown. I used to live in Anaheim but even now I that moved to Washington, I will still fly down to see Dr. Trieu in Irvine! Dr. Trieu was not only honest about my dental work but also took a conservative approach to the treatment. He was very detailed, explaining each step of the procedure. Dr. Trieu made me a partial crown so I can keep the healthy part of my tooth. They had a same day CEREC crown making machine so I got to watch my crown being made and everything was done in just couple hours. I also got a routine cleaning with his hygienist, May, and she did an exceptional job with the cleaning, gentle yet detailed and thorough without any discomfort, exactly what you want from maintenance visit. She measured my gum pockets and also showed me her approach of keeping the gum healthy. She used salt washing technique to polish my teeth which is my favorite part of the cleaning. The entire staff was incredibly nice, ensuring my comfort throughout the visit. I'm so grateful and lucky to have found such genuine and honest team, which is rare in this economy. Most dentists I've visited and worked with primarily focus on treatments and more procedures. Dr. Trieu wants you to save money and save natural teeth and I really appreciate this approach. I will undoubtedly recommend all my friends and family (even my own patients) to come here!

    I just wanted to thank Dr Trieu for having noticed that my bite Gap was off and was patient with me and helping me fix it!

    Based on the reviews, I was expecting and looking forward to a 5-star experience. Unfortunately,…read morethat was not my experience, and I felt I was given 1-star treatment. The female dental assistant was not welcoming or friendly. When I mentioned that I wanted to skip the CBCT scan due to financial reasons, as the cost can be hundreds of dollars depending on insurance, she continued to push the scan 4-5 times despite my clearly stating that I did not want it. I found this extremely uncomfortable and felt that my decision was not being respected. When it came time for the X-rays, the lead apron was tossed onto me rather than being placed on me with care. I have pectus excavatum, which made this particularly uncomfortable and, in my opinion, was not handled professionally. My experience with Dr. Omid Dianat was also concerning. I was placed in a Trendelenburg position, with my head lower than my feet. I have cystic fibrosis and related sinus issues, which make me particularly prone to dizziness and migraine spikes. I had disclosed my medical history and symptoms in the forms I completed prior to the appointment. Being placed in that position exacerbated my symptoms and left me feeling extremely ill afterward. I understand that certain procedures and positioning may be necessary, but I believe my medical history should have been reviewed and taken into consideration before positioning me this way. At the very least, I would have appreciated being informed beforehand so we could discuss whether there was a more appropriate position for me. Additionally, when the electric pulp tester (EPT) was used on an already extremely sensitive tooth, I would have appreciated even a brief warning that the test could cause significant pain. A simple 10-second explanation would have made the experience much less distressing. Overall, I left feeling genuinely disappointed because I had high expectations after reading so many positive reviews. I was hoping to feel heard, respected, and cared for throughout my appointment, particularly after taking the time to provide detailed information about my medical history and concerns beforehand. Instead, I left feeling that my decisions, comfort, and individual needs were not given the level of consideration I expected. I'm sharing this feedback because I believe these concerns could have been addressed with better communication, more attentiveness, and a little more compassion. I hope the office takes this experience seriously and considers how these interactions can be improved so future patients feel more comfortable, respected, and cared for.

    I have extreme sensitivity in a tooth with a 10-year-old pulp cap. Last May, I bit into an RX date…read morebar (I've had these many times) and felt sharp pain in tooth #4. For six months I dealt with sensitivity, mainly triggered by hot and cold. I could eat and chew just fine as long as I started chewing on my left side first. Last May, I spoke with my dentist, had X-rays taken, and he told me I'd eventually need a root canal. He didn't give me any other solutions, so I just waited to see if things would get worse. Six months later, I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Gharib's office because the sensitivity was getting to me (even though it was on and off), and I started feeling pain up my cheek. I was worried about potentially having an infection or, even worse, an abscess. Christine at the front desk was so kind and accommodating. It was easy to schedule an appointment. She told me that Dr. Gharib is very conservative and only recommends procedures when absolutely necessary. I figured that was just something she said to everyone. At my appointment, I had X-rays done and reviewed them with Dr. Gharib. He was very kind, soft-spoken, and answered my many (many) questions while listening intently to my concerns. I did not feel rushed at all--I felt like I was actually being heard. After his examination, he didn't see any infection on the X-ray, but it did show a slight fracture in the pulp cap filling, which could be the cause of the heightened sensitivity. He didn't pressure me to do a cone beam scan or even suggest it; I personally requested it because I wanted to be absolutely sure there wasn't an infection at the root, since that would make a root canal necessary. The cone beam scan confirmed I had no infection whatsoever--thank goodness. He sat with me for a long while discussing what I could do to help the sensitivity and the slight fracture. He said it might be as simple as replacing the filling with an inlay or onlay, but since my pulp cap is very close to the nerve, that carries the risk of needing a root canal if it fails. He suggested trying Sensodyne for a few weeks and then having my dentist check whether an inlay or onlay, to replace the filling, is an option. There's a chance that might fix the problem. After my appointment, I felt so much more at ease. I was relieved that I didn't have an infection and grateful that I actually had options before committing to a root canal. Dr. Gharib even wrote me a long email afterward, reiterating everything we talked about. That, right there, is a dentist who truly cares. If and when I ever need a root canal, I'll be going to Dr. Gharib. He is professional, honest, thorough, and welcomes ALL questions. All the positive reviews you've read are true. Not every dentist cares like this!

After visiting three different endodontist who gave me questionable and, in some cases inadequate treatment recommendations, it was incredibly refreshing to finally meet someone with true integrity.

His expertise professionalism, and honesty immediately stood out.It's clear from both his credentials and patient reviews that he genuinely cares about doing what's best for his patients-not just making a profit. After my previous experiences, I felt genuinely relieved and confident in his care. I highly recommend Dr. Gharib to anyone who's seeking an honest and skilled endodontist.
