My wife and I saw Dr. Nguyen many years ago and remember great dental work. Our insurance changed so we left him for awhile. Recently we didnt like my wife's dentist and our insurance changed again. We remembered Dr. Nguyen and switched back to him. My wife got a great cleaning from Dr. Nguyen and started some work on 2 teeth that need crowns and gum surgery. Dr. Nguyen just finished the 1st crown and it looks beautiful. No issues. Dr. Nguyen and his office staff are very polite and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen for excellent dental work. read more

Location: Milpitas, CA - Dentist: Tuyen Nguyen, DDS - his wife is at the front desk Terrible service. They don't have digital xray- office is so old. The dentist did not show me the xray and explain the problem of conditions of my teeth but kept asking me what teeth I felt pain. Then Annie only concern about bring in cash to pay. Sweet talk but not caring for patients at all. I only need to know what teeth cause pain and fix the problem, but he did not concern about my worry. I will never come back to this place. Went to another dentist near by and got explanation of the teeth conditions and treatment plan with less money and good quality service. read more

5-Star Review for Dr. Michael Tuyen Nguyen, DDS I stumbled upon Dr. Michael Tuyen Nguyen's office in January 2025 after chipping a tooth I'd been avoiding treatment for--out of fear--for nearly a year. From the moment I walked in, the experience was completely different from any dental visit I'd had before. X-rays revealed that not only was my chipped tooth an issue, but another tooth--completely painless--was actually in worse shape. Dr. Nguyen explained everything clearly, including the surgical procedure on my gums, the crowns needed, and my payment portion. We got started right away. In total: First crown was completed quickly and with minimal pain. A second visit followed the next week for the other side. Then, I came in for crown fittings--both were matched perfectly to my natural teeth (I'm a smoker, so this is no small feat). He warned me there was a 50/50 chance of needing a root canal, but he managed to save the tooth without it. I really appreciated his honest approach. I was so impressed that I told everyone I knew about this place. Fast forward 7 months--an old root canal from a previous dentist cracked at the gum line. I booked again, and Dr. Nguyen found the neighboring tooth was the real issue, requiring two crowns. The plan was clear, and again the goal was to save the tooth. He did just that. On the Monday two weeks later, the final crowns were placed. They were flawless--same color, great shape, totally natural. I can't forget Annie, his assistant, who's equally amazing. She made me feel at ease, chatting about her workouts and her kids. I even received text reminders over the weekend for my Monday appointments. They really go the extra mile. This is an office that cares about their patients, and it shows in every detail. I'm thrilled to have found my new dental home. Next up: routine check-up in 6 months! read more

Everything was very profesional. Great attention and clear explanation I recommend them a 100%.

Dr. Nguyen has been my dentist for 11 years. I've had several root canals and other procedures and Dr. Nguyen has done an excellent job every time. He and his wife have always been friendly, accommodating and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen! read more

Went to this new dentist because of a change in insurance, opted for a crown for a dental issue I've had for a while. Had a great experience, solved my issue and still get to use my retainer. read more

Had a really good experience here at their milpitas office! The receptionist is super kind, helpful, and informative. She helped me get an appointment as soon as possible since I was in pain. I felt like they were very knowledgable and helpful. They also accept medi cal which was great! read more

Have been with the dr for over 15 yrs and dr Truyen is very nice and tentative. Great experience every time.

First, the equipment and machines are not clean. They are tore and dirty. And they are rude, they kept you stay at the dental chair waiting for more than 30 minutes- without any explanation and no any greeting. Yes, If you have a HMO insurance they don't want to talk to you. Finally the dentist came out, for the bad tooth the he used the phone to take pictures instead of any x ray. Besides, I never see any dental assistant around to help the receptionist play the role as dental assistant. Which is unprofessional. It shocked me a lot! read more

****UPDATE: The office contacted me back to apologize and ask to accommodate the refund for me which I appreciated because at least they tried to resolve the issue. I hope next time the dentist can let the patient know if they are not feeling well and reschedule to different day or time so incident like this won't happen again. I had an appointment on Saturday for the first time with this dentist. They suggested me to do deep cleaning because i said my back teeth was sore with 2 quadrant for 240$ because they didn't find any issues with regular cleaning. I was okay because i didn't know and i want to clean my teeth so I paid . I thought they were pretty nice until.. THE DENTIST WAS FALLING ASLEEP DEEP CLEANING MY TEETH AND WHILE INJECTING ANTIBIOTICS. At first i was closing my eyes but then I was feeling his movements were weird cause he was doing it then stop and both his hands were slipping through my face. Until he touched his pointy tools across my eyes that i felt really scared. So i opened my eyes to see what happened. After that i saw him falling asleep. I kept staring at his face until the end because i thought if i looked at him he would be at least awake since patient is looking at you but... HIS EYES BARELY OPENED. I was so scared that I just wanted to get out of there. I should have confronted them but this is my first time going to dentist by myself so i pretended nothing happened then just ran to my car afterwards because i was so scared. read more

Tuyen Nguyen, DDS - The mark that the dentist scratched his pointy tools at my eye - General Dentistry Near Me - San Jose, California

I have had several crowns replaced by Dr. Nguyen in the past couple of years. I have a very small mouth so it is always difficult to access my teeth and so I expect it to be uncomfortable. The most recent visit was the very back tooth so although it can be painful for me, it is also quite difficult for the dentist work on. The new crown was an immediate and perfect fit. A boon I have not experienced with other dentists who had to grind down the crown a lot before it fit properly. Both Dr. Nguyen and his assistant Annie have been very accommodating. read more

Dr. Tuyen Nguyen has been my dentist for over 12 years. He has excellent crown, surgical and preventive care skills. His team is very professional ,and they are opened on weekends. I have recommended Dr. Nguyen to all my relatives and friends. read more

Excellent and caring restorative dentist at a reasonable price! Repaired/replaced crowns for both my husband and me that were incorrectly placed by previous dentists. Our teeth are in full working order and Dr. Tuyen Nguyen and his assistant, Annie, clearly communicated all their work every step of the way. I highly recommend this dentist! read more

Took care of my teeth very well! I had a crown multiple times and they make sure I didn't feel pain, and the crown works very nicely :)

Dr. Nguyen and receptionist are very kind and warm individual human being. I feel very comfortable and happy when I have a visit with them. Dr. Nguyen is very busy and focus in his profession; although, he will be very helpful when asking technical questions. One of my teeth broken halfway, Dr. Nguyen was able to do his magic and now I am able to smile normally. I recommend Dr. Nguyen, and get to know them. So that, your dental visit will be a pleasant one. Remember, never pull your teeth out before seeing Dr. Nguyen and a cheerful receptionist cool. Have a blessed day everyone! P.S. Dr. Nguyen make awesome pound cake. TimTim read more

I was pleased to discover Dr. Nguyen when I was looking to move from my previous chain dentist, who I was unhappy with. Dr. Nguyen took my insurance and quoted me about 1/2 of what my previous dentist had quoted for a crown. Both he and his assistant, Annie are friendly and easy to work with, and Dr. Nguyen has turned out to be an excellent and competent dentist. He is finishing the third crown he is doing for me, and has done an excellent job. read more

This douche of a dentist seriously is demented! My review from three years ago was all legit. I think this guy just found the Internet three days ago. I've had replies and comments from owners in the past that were all positive and well written. Very classy! Not this moron! He wrote a nasty false accusation three days ago making everything my fault and said some pretty nasty things like I have a lot of calculus and bad breath! According to him I also have a small mouth so that my previous dentist wasn't able to clean my teeth well. WTH? All other Yelpers apparently gave him the same low rate! He also apparently blamed them for everything that happened years ago just like he did me. To my co-Yelpers that had an encounter with this douche- WE know that we weren't late that day. WE Know that he hurt us bad when he was cleaning our teeth. WE know that he's a one man operation junk of a biz. WE know that we don't have bad breath. WE know he's a douche and posses the writing capacity of a moron. DO NOT GO HERE! read more

Dr. Nguyen and his receptionist are passionate about providing quality service, are ethical, honest, and warmhearted. There may not be many reviews online, but they have many loyal patients who are referring new patients by word of mouth. Dr. Nguyen is super experienced, skilled and kind. read more

I'm very surprised at the bad reviews this dentist has. This dentist is the reason I'm able to smile. I have went to him for years now after a friend referred me to him. When I originally went here I had multiple broken and missing teeth. I was getting tooth abscess frequently and I wouldn't open my mouth in public. My first visit he seemed surprised at how bad my teeth were. I admit I had horrible hygiene growing up and everything kind of went to hell. Tuyen came up with a plan. I thought I was going to have to have dentures my teeth were so far gone. He assured me I wouldn't need dentures and I would have teeth again. After several visits and many crowns and root canals he was able to restore my upper teeth, which were basically none existent. I always had crooked teeth but now my teeth are straight and look better than ever. I never thought I would be able to comfortably smile in public but I smile all the time. I continue to go to him since there is still work to do. Sometimes the wait is long but there is always a movie to distract me. I would rather wait a little to get the amazing work Tuyen has done for me. I would really not want to go anywhere else. I recommend all my friends to Tuyen because despite what these other people are saying I definitely I'm confident in his work. read more

I went to see dds Nguyen about getting some bridge work done.and after reading the reviews on yelp I was skeptical about going to see him . And to my surprise none of it was true. As the office was clean and receptionist was very polite and made me feel welcome. As I made my way to the chair I was looking around and found nothing that made me feel like I was in for a bad experience. Met the dds and he took his time in examining my teeth and when he was explaining to me what he thought needed to be done . He made sure I completely understood what was to take place . I found this visit too dds Nguyen to be pleasant. And I left looking and feeling better about my smile. Thank you dds Nguyen and team read more

He cut my teeth in half. But he made me sign a waiver first. The tooth was chipped and now its worse. a filling would stick to a chip but not if the tooth is cut in half. Ill try to add pictures to my review but be careful. I think he wanted to sell me a crown and it was just a small chip initially. read more

AVOID! I should have listened to others on here. When I called to make an appt, they answered the phone with "Hello" like it was a personal call. After a few moments of asking if this was the dentist, they finally said yes. WTH? And like a moron I made an appt. Then, when I got there, they were closed. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID! read more

Worst dentist I have ever been to. No cleanliness at all. Rude in talks and doesnt explain what he is doing. I visited him for dental cleaning and a filling. After taking x ray of my tooth which required filling, he starting cleaning while the xray result was getting developed by his assistant. He was cleaning my lower jaw and all of the sudden he poked the cleaning tool in my fragile cavity ( I dont know why all of a sudden on single tooth which was on upper jaw) Immediately it started bleeding and he said you would need root canal. I am certain he intentionally worsened my cavity with cleaning tool to level it require root canal. I have seen alot of doctors/dentist in my life of 30 years. I never came accross such a doctor/dentist. Go to ANY dentist but not to this. read more

I would never go back here. The place is very run down and unorganized. After sitting and waiting for close to 30 mins to go back to have my teeth cleaned (and I had an apt and was on time) he didn't even introduce himself. During the cleaning, I had to wipe my face multiple times because he was getting stuff everywhere. He stopped mid cleaning to take phone call, not even excusing himself or apologizing. When he came back, I had to ask him to change his gloves because he never removed them...to top it off, my cleaning didn't include a floss or polishing my teeth. Worst dentist experience ever, I couldn't get out of there fast enough. Do yourself a favor and find someone else, wish I did....Can't wait to change back my insurance read more

Before I went to see Dr. Nguyen, I looked at yelp reviews, and raised my concern about this doctor for some negative comments. But there are only handful dentists in my insurance network, and my tooth was very painful, after I called a bunch of dentists nearby trying to make an appointment with no luck, at last I choose Dr. Nguyen. I was surprised that Dr. Nguyen is very polite, and professional, especially he saved a deeply decayed tooth on which other dentists told me the only way is to be pull out, and make a bridge. The crown was made last year, and so far so good. I recommend this dentist to all patients, and they will not disappointed. read more

I was lucky to have him as my personal dentist. I know him from my insuranc list, I was kind of scary to see dentist, but after that time talking with him, I trust him for caring my teeth health. He showed caring, and loving to patient. I look forward to see him in my next appt. read more

This dentist, Tuyen.Yes he is very good Dentist, he is taking good care for me personally. He gave me lot of recommendations for treatment. Of course it's up to me but to me those were benefit to me. Honestly sometimes, he got interruptions when working for me but not a big deal for 1 minute or 2 minutes So take appointment with and you'll see. I've been visited with this dentist at least 3 year from now,most happy. read more

I have insurance with Delta Dental and this office is a part of the plan. When I arrived I noticed the office was not to my liking in terms of physical condition. It seemed to be bare bones. Furthermore, the office assistant space was in clutter and they had my appointment time recorded incorrectly. I waited for 45m before asking when would I be seen for my teeth cleaning. They said 5m. I waited another 20km before they sat me in a dental chair. I waited another 30m without being seen by anyone before I got up and left! Unfortunately, I choose to go to this office in spite of the reviews. I will never do that again! This office is just another hustle of peoples time and money and should be shuttered! read more
