This is my review of my recent dental checkup. The front office staff is extremely friendly and welcoming, and checked me in right away. I waited no more than five minutes before being called in by the dental hygienist. She struck up great conversation and made me feel very comfortable as she cleaned my teeth. Dr. French came talk to me about a couple of issues I had and provided very reasonable recommendations and paths forward for each. Very friendly dentist! The facility is brand new, very clean, and very well run. If you're looking for a new dentist, look no further than Willow Glen Dental! read more

Dr French is the only dentist I trust. I'm 77 and this is the only practice I've ever felt confident of. The entire staff is welcoming and professional. I recommend Willow Glen Dental with complete confidence. read more

Amazing care and they really make you feel comfortable! I'm not a fan of dentist but this office really made me feel at ease. From the front desk, dental assistant, dentist and the hygienist, all were awesome! DEF will reccomend! read more

Clean and modern dentist office. Front desk, hygienists and doctors are all super friendly. I haven't had the best experiences with dentists growing up and usually feel uneasy, but everyone hear has made my experience comfortable. Thank goodness they take our insurance and now my whole family comes here! read more

I am 80 years old, and going to the dentist can make me feel as scared and helpless as a small child. The moment Dr. Doug Kong walks into the room, I know everything will be all right. He has truly skillful hands and a gentle, reassuring manner. I have seen many dentists in my lifetime--some very good--but Dr. Kong is the best. He is kind, and his staff is always friendly and helpful. I am so grateful I found Willow Glen Dental. Life is short, and I plan to keep smiling for as long as I can. God bless Dr. Kong and his wonderful team. read more

My family loves this dental office. The staff is very kind about reminders, billing, and overall experience. The dentists and dental hygienists are efficient with the cleaning appointments and as a bonus, they are very friendly. The new office is a beautiful, high-tech space, but the parking lot is quite small. I have never had an issue finding a spot during my morning appointments. read more

Recently went in to have updated x-rays, molds, and a cleaning done. Even though I got there early, they were able to take me right in and prep me for my appointment. The most delightful thing about my visit was learning that molds can be taken now with a scanning tool. So no more biting into a tray with gooey stuff that might cause your gag reflex to trigger! They were thoughtful and took me through their findings and recommendations. They could have sold me on more treatments and other solutions though, because I want to try Invisalign, all other recommended services were paused as they would not make sense with the position of my teeth changing. Thank you for the honesty and great human care! read more

Holy cow - what an experience!!! I literally just walked into the future and it was awesome!!!! Ok so first of all- so easy to get an appointment, lots of options and availability. Front desk staff super friendly and helpful. Then you go there- this place is FANCY!! This is exactly what a dentist office in the heart of the Silicon Valley should look like. They use tools I've never seen- and then they walk you step by step through what is going on with your teeth and your history and the game plan. I had Dr Brian- very thorough and helpful. But seriously, no review can do it justice- it's a place you got to see and experience to believe!!! read more

I have not been to the dentist in over 25 years. My retainers were taken out when I was admitted to Valley Medical, so life was never the same after. It was a series of laziness, depression, and putting things on the back burner that got me here. I had a lot of trouble sleeping, I binged ate, and I pretty much stopped going to the gym. If you know me, I even went to the gym when I was sick. Anyway. I was tired of feeling low and I don't like how I feel and I don't like what I look like, so I started changing but not w/o a little help from my foster kittens. Because of them I no longer have trouble sleeping. It is because I wake up at 2:40 to clean and set their day up. I started running! Next is my dental hygiene, so I made the call and was glad I was able to be seen that Saturday. Office is bright, clean, modest, spacious, and staff (from front desk, assistants, dentist themselves) were professional, soft-spoken, listens to you, and I felt that they care about my oral hygiene. Surprisingly no cavities! Who the hell says they cannot wait for their deep cleaning?! Me! After so long, I cannot wait to get my teeth cleaned. My first appt. was about the overview exam and review of my x-rays. Everything was explained to me, I felt comfortable w/ how the information was being conveyed. I understand and had no questions at the end. My cleaning is at the end of December. They're booked out but worth the wait. read more

After leaving Sunnyvale Dental Asthetics because they no longer accepted Delta I was referred to come here by my coworker a few years ago. They were located in an old building that clearly needed repairs but I stuck with them because the dentist, hygienists, and dental assistants were also so through, friendly, and caring. The office staff are also great! We'll fast forward and they built a whole brand new office. It is beautiful and modern! AND you still get the same great care. They are always checking to make sure you are comfy too. I've seen three different dentists here and had great experiences with all of them! Thank you Willow Glen Dental! read more

This dentist office is great! I have been going to Doctor Kong since I moved to the Bay Area. I had a horrible toothache coming from my right side that was progressively feeling worse by the day so I contacted their office to schedule an appointment on Wednesday. They originally put me on the schedule for next week which was their soonest availability but put me on their cancellation list. I received a call within less than an hour after hanging up with them that they could see me the following morning at 11!! I went into their office and Doctor Kong did an evaluation/x-ray on my right hand side of my mouth that the pain was radiating from and determined that I needed a crown due to a small cavity and crack in my tooth. He put the crown in on the same day and had me in and out of his office in record time! He is always very professional, personable, and thorough. Bonus **I asked my kids if they can tell which tooth has the crown and they couldn't tell! He did a great job making it blend in with my other teeth especially since it's towards the front side of my mouth. The dental hygienists and front staff there are always great too!! Everyone in their office has been fantastic each time I go there. read more

I hate the dentist. But these folks are nice. Everything seems to be handled in house and the dentists are super gentle and regularly check in to make sure you're doing okay. The recommended treatment plan was honest and to the point, they really consider long term when making recommendations. Getting an appointment is super easy and I'm not left waiting for months to have 1 procedure completed. read more

Willow Glen Dental goes above and beyond the call of duty! The dental hygienists and doctors are always very friendly, professional and thorough during my cleanings. When they noticed gum recession due to me grinding my teeth, they prescribed me a mouth guard. It made a huge difference! They recommended Sensodyne to assist with sensitivity when brushing, and a couple fillings to prevent cavities. I couldn't be happier with their service! read more

I had such a great experience at my routine dental cleaning / xray appointment today! From the moment I walked in, the team was welcoming and professional. The dental hygienist, Karina was personable, kind, gentle, and thorough. The dentist filling in for Dr. Kong today was also very sweet, knowledgeable and took the time to answer my questions. The dental office is GORGEOUS (feels like a spa) clean, efficient, and friendly--overall one of the best dental visits I've ever had. I'm so glad I found this practice and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for excellent dental care. read more

So my Dentist Doctor Harvey is on leave and I had to try a new dentist. Doctor Tam and she was MARVELOUS. Her Dental Assistant Nayely was also magnificent. I needed a crown and that meant some drilling and Novocain shot had to be done. The two were very professional and compassionate about the work. They took good care of me and made sure I was not in any discomfort or pain. I will miss Doctor Harvey a lot but having Doctor Tam take over gave me satisfaction as a patient and know that the care and help will continue at Willow Glen Dental. The crown the machine made was not fitting and Doctor Tam would not finish until the crown was fitting perfect. Most dentist offices have the oven type of machine that makes your crown in 1 hour, so you don't have to wear a TEMPORARY for weeks and come back. So, I waited it took a few hours to finish the job but when I left, I was able to chew again and not have any more pain with hot and cold liquids on my right side of my mouth. I look forward on having Doctor Tam fix my grill anytime I have any dental issues. Alejandra and Lupe and Sloan up at the front were also very helpful and professional in checking me in and explaining the billing insurance process. read more

It's the people who care and actually listen that make all the difference. I've been coming to WG Dental for 5 years. Never blown away, never upset, just fine. It was convenient... so I stuck around. Then I met Amanda, a dental hygienist who was new to me. As usual, I mentioned my coffee stains (my forever insecurity) like I do at every appointment. Normally, it's just a passing comment. Amanda was so kind and friendly the entire time and at the end, she handed me a mirror and said she had tried her best to remove the stains. I was shocked. My teeth looked so white I thought maybe I have a shot at a toothpaste commercial :) No one had ever actually addressed my comment before and here she was, going the extra mile without me even asking. I smiled all week and it honestly boosted my confidence. A dental office with people like Amanda who take the time to listen and actually help, is exactly the kind of place people look forward to coming back to. Thank you Amanda! read more

If I could give Dr. Brian Kong a billion stars, I would! Having undergone extensive dental work with various dentists, I hold incredibly high standards--and finding Dr. Brian Kong has been an absolute blessing. Professionalism is just the beginning. His expertise, knowledge, and skill set are truly top-notch. He holds himself to the highest standards, always striving for perfection. He never takes shortcuts or the easy route--he always does what's best for his patients. During my initial consultation, he immediately noticed an uneven gumline I had never realized before. Once he pointed it out, I couldn't unsee it--and I completely agreed with his assessment. He referred me to an excellent gum contouring specialist and their work was beautiful. Dr.Brian making the entire experience smooth and painless. His assistant, Liz, is wonderful, and their teamwork is outstanding! I now have the most beautiful front tooth crown ever. Dr. Kong didn't just restore my smile--he restored my confidence. Beyond his exceptional dental expertise, what I appreciate most about Dr. Brian Kong is his honesty and integrity. He never recommends unnecessary treatments and always provides the best advice and referrals. In fact, I initially wanted additional work done, but he advised against it--definitely not your typical "drill and bill" dentist. I trust Dr. Brian Kong and his incredible team wholeheartedly. He is my family's dentist for life! As I write this, I'm sitting here while he takes care of my mother's dental needs, and I couldn't be more grateful. We love you, Dr. Brian Kong--truly the best dentist in town! PS: Their new office in Willow Glen is fantastic and they got best technology and equipments! And all of their staff members are amazing and so wonderful to work with read more

Very professional and beautiful place and very well organized dentist office. Will be returning 2 more times and then will update! But so far so good. But I dislike dentist cause I have child trauma from baddddd experience. Thank you read more

I recently had an appointment at Willow Glen Dental Specialists, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. I usually don't find dental visits pleasant, but this office operates at a different level of professionalism. From the moment I walked in, the front desk team (about 4 people) was welcoming and efficient. The facility is spotless, organized, and I appreciated the privacy between rooms--you don't have to listen to what's happening with the patient next door. What truly stood out was the staff's expertise and patience. I want to make a special emphasis on the Doctor's Assistant (I missed her name, but she was fantastic). She was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and took her time without rushing any part of the process. When Dr. Nguyen came in, she immediately reviewed the high-quality X-rays and 3D images the assistant had taken and openly praised her for doing such a great job. That level of respect and professional validation between a doctor and her staff is rare and says a lot about the quality of the practice. read more

Just an awesome organized place. Clean and very friendly people. Love the hygienist and the doctors! Come here and you will never want another dentist! read more

The Doctors and all staff at WGD are always above and beyond with everything. From the time you enter the door and upon leaving, you are always treated with dignity and care.

I was looking for a new dental office in South Bay since I moved here. I decided to come to Willow Glen Dental for my annual cleaning and checkup. The staff was great, everyone was nice, and it was easy to set up the appointment. I didn't see Dr. Kong until after the cleaning, and it was for a brief 5 minutes to look at my teeth and gums. The main person helping me was the DA or the hygienist, I can't remember who. My issue with this office is that there wasn't enough clarity coming from the office. My insurance is Delta Dental, and I should have full coverage for my annual bwx, cleaning, and at the time, my PANO. While setting up my next cleaning, I asked if I had any copays or fees I needed to pay while I was still there. They told me I don't have any, as my insurance has 100% coverage. A few weeks later, I was told I had a bill of around $120 because my insurance didn't cover it all. I was confused and thought this was accidentally charged on my account because my insurance should be enough. I'm assuming this office is out of network, which is why their fees are higher than the costs my insurance can cover. If it were in network, the contract should've prorated the cost of everything to match my insurance. I called before setting up my appointment to see if the office accepts my insurance, and they did, but they failed to tell me about the potential fees I would be charged since my insurance covers 100% of a certain amount. Always ask for clarity with your insurance and the type of dental office they are before confirming your appointment. Other than this, my experience was good, but because of the miscommunication I received, it knocked out some stars for me. read more

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Brian and his office. The entire team is professional, kind, and very organized. Dr. Brian is exceptionally caring and gentle. I especially appreciate that he is honest and straightforward about treatment options. The staff was also incredibly accommodating and went out of their way to fit me in on short notice, which I really appreciated. The office is beautiful, modern, and welcoming, and their fees are reasonable for the quality of care and attention you receive. I highly recommend Dr. Brian and his team to anyone looking for a caring and honest dentist. read more

I couldn't be more appreciative of this company. I had fallen and chipped 3 front teeth-- I was scheduled to leave on vacation in two days, so this was very upsetting-- they scheduled an appointment immediately and repaired the damage the same day. They were very professional and thoughtful. The entire experience was excellent. I can't say enough about their expertise and thoughtfulness. read more

I've been a patient at Willow Glen Dental for nearly five years. The reception staff are always welcoming and helpful, and the hygienists are both kind and professional. Even after they moved to their current location, I don't mind driving a little farther--the new office has a much nicer atmosphere too. read more

Dental care, excellent clean offices that are state of the art. I felt very well taken care of. Very clean nice place.

I went for a cleaning and X-rays, everything was very professional and the staff were very accommodating and so nice.

Willow Glen Dental refused to perform an exam and prophylaxis after I declined X-rays. The explanation was that if they did not take X-rays the practice could liable for negligence. There was no assertion that X-rays were medically necessary for me. X-rays, whether necessary or not, are simply liability-wash. read more

I'm late on my update but it's actually heartbreaking to share. We felt like family here. Very personable staff. Loved them. But they are all gone. Jr took over from Senior and now it's a cash hog.

First time at their new location and what an upgrade! I was always impressed with the service provided by WGD and they have continued to impress me with the thorough care and the communication given during and after my visit.
