My hygienist is always friendly, knowledgeable, professional and makes me feel 100% at ease. I love that they take blood pressure because, for some, access to that simple screening wouldn't happen anywhere else. Staff are warm and friendly, the space is sunny and clean with free WiFi!

The dentist and hygienist will always explain everything to you. You won't have any unnecessary procedures, and you'll walk away with oral health swag every time. I recently shared with the dentist that my confidence in my smile has increased a million fold since they fixed a chip in my front tooth. She was so moved to hear it.

I am a new patient, there - and I am glad I drove the few towns over to check them out. I found Dr. Chang (as well as Samantha - Dental Hygienist at this office) to be exceptionally knowledgeable in their work - and share relevant at home care tips as they work. Their shared focus while 'efficiently' working seems to be detail towards best outcomes; presenting a personable & approachable - yet professional attitude. They are also both funny, and kind. They both seem to answer questions you haven't even asked them yet; which I very much appreciate. I met Dr. Chang's new Dental Assistant, today.

If you value your teeth, avoid Dr. Z. I needed a new dentist and his office was close to mine, and…read moreI was able to visit on my lunch break. I wish there were reviews that I could have read before hand, because just about everything he did to my mouth turned painful. At my initial checkup he said I needed a crown. I had been told that for a long time by many dentists about a particular tooth, but it never bothered me so I ignored it. This time he said that the x-ray showed decay, and it was only a matter of time before it would start causing trouble. I was facing losing my dental insurance soon after so I said okay. I had problems with it as soon as it was set. I went back five times to have it shaved down repeatedly, but the pain persisted. In the end I went to another dentist to see what was wrong. He took an x-ray and said that the crown was not seated properly, and was a millimeter above my gum line, exposing the inside of my tooth. I called to get another appointment and the usually friendly receptionist's demeanor changed immediately. She argued that dentists vary in their opinions and Dr. Z does good work. I finally got another appointment and I got a bit of push back at first (everyone was very cold to me). While we were waiting for the x-ray taken by the other dentist, Dr. Z probed under the crown and I jumped sky-high. Incredibly, he said that in all his years as a dentist, he had never seen a tooth shift like that, displacing a crown!! What!?! I'm no fan of dental work, and I had to have the crown removed and replaced. The new temporary crown didn't fit and it kept dislodging while I ate (even though I only chewed on the other side) and I kept chomping on it. The whole ordeal was a nightmare. The tooth still hurts (remember - it never bothered me before I went to see him), and I need to see another dentist to (hopefully) fix it. I can no longer chew on that side. He also made a mess of a front tooth I asked him to smooth out because of a chip in the back. Save yourself some pain - go to another dentist.
