I went in for a consultation with Dr. Wynn and unfortunately, left feeling pretty disappointed with the experience. I was scheduled for 9:00 AM and was told over the phone that the consultation would be about an hour. I was expecting to meet with Dr. Wynn and discuss my concerns and treatment options directly with him. Instead, I spent almost two hours speaking exclusively with the practice manager and never actually got to meet or speak with the doctor. The practice manager was very friendly and talkative, which I initially appreciated because it made the environment feel comfortable. However, the appointment consisted of a LOT of stories about the philosophy of the office, and other patients and I felt like I left with less clarity than I expected from a cosmetic dental consultation. I originally went in primarily concerned about two teeth and was interested in exploring composite bonding, along with some whitening. During the conversation, I was told that I would need at least six veneers. I understand that a cosmetic dentist may have professional recommendations and that veneers may ultimately be the better option in some cases, but I'm not sure what qualifications or clinical assessment were being used to make that determination, especially since I had not yet been evaluated by Dr. Wynn. When I questioned why six would be necessary when I was originally concerned about two teeth, the explanation I was given was essentially that once you have two "perfect" teeth, you will start noticing everything else that is wrong with your smile, so it would be better to do everything at once. That explanation did not really address my concerns or explain why six veneers were clinically necessary for me. I had other questions and concerns about veneers in general, and some of the responses came across more like "well my veneers look great" rather than addressing my individual concerns as a patient. It felt like more of a sales pitch than an actual professional discussion. The pricing also made the experience more difficult. I was being quoted at least $12,000-15,000 for the veneers I apparently desperately need, along with an initial $2,200 for diagnostics, so I would have expected a consultation with the actual dentist and a clear clinical explanation of why that treatment was necessary before discussing such a significant financial commitment. Ultimately, I had to leave after almost two hours because I had somewhere else to be, meaning I never even got the opportunity to speak with the doctor I had scheduled the consultation with. I'm sure this office has many happy patients, and I appreciated the friendliness of the staff, especially the receptionist! However, based on my experience, I personally did not feel that the consultation met my expectations. I would have preferred a more focused appointment, less pressure around treatment choices, and most importantly, the opportunity to actually meet with and be evaluated by the dentist before being told what treatment I needed. read more

I am so thankful for Dr. Okuda. Dr. Okuda is THE best dentist. I've had braces twice and have had horrible dental issues my whole life. I have never felt so confident in my dentist and his team, I cannot thank Dr. Okuda for transforming my smile and for making me feel more confident. First off, the office is immaculate, clean and so well put together. The entire team is on it and are always attentive, present and genuine. Dr. Okuda's office staff and team are the best. They truly treated me like family, even when I first came into their office for a consultation. I never felt pushed to get any treatments, I felt like Dr. Okuda and his team were genuine from day one about what could make my smile better. Even after my procedure, Dr. Okuda encouraged me that just the small and slight tweak we did with my gumline was enough to transform my smile - and he told me in his honest opinion, that's all he'd want to do to improve my smile and to keep everything else for it made me "me". I also got into a horrible surfing accident earlier this year before proceeding with my procedure - Dr. Okuda had me immediately come in to examine my teeth and my huge lip laceration and he told me he'd prefer to wait until my laceration healed. Not only did he fit me into his busy schedule immediately, Dr. Okuda genuinely cared about my well being and didn't want to rush my procedure. Professionalism. Honesty. Kindness. And the best taste. I trust Dr. Okuda and would highly recommend him to any of my friends or family for any cosmetic dental needs and inquiries. read more

I called to inquire about implants after their website popped up after a google search. A woman called me back and in a very condescending way told me she doesn't give out pricing over the phone. She did not ask me to schedule an appointment in order to provide me with any estimates and instead ended the phone call very abruptly. Left me feeling insulted and offended. It is apparent that this dental business only wants patients with deep pockets that will gladly pay their enormous fees. read more

Wynn H Okuda, DMD - My new beautiful ceramic porcelain teeth!!! MAHALO Dr Okuda for giving me my youthful smile back! #Perfectionist #Artist - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Why did I wait this long? Countless hours turned into months of online searching from east coast to west coast searching for a talented Cosmetic Dentist who's checked all the boxes. Intelligence, talent, artistry, a doctor who showed care to his patients, a perfectionist who showed great detail in his work, and a professional support dental team were some of those boxes. I found Dr. Okuda and he checked all the boxes. Dr. Okuda's talent is unmatched. He exceeded my expectations with the care he and his team provided. I was nervous and the process was so much easier than I anticipated all thanks to Dr. Okuda and his awesome team! His practice is revolutionizing dentistry! I was pampered, watched a movie, informed of what was happening all while pain free...and I left the office with a new beautiful smile. I love my new smile...thank you, Dr. Okuda! read more

Wynn H Okuda, DMD - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I'll be the first to admit that I had some anxiety going into my first appointment with Dr. Okuda since I was making a permanent decision at such a young age. But becoming a patient of Dr. and his staff was the best decision I've ever made. As soon as I stepped foot into the office, I felt a great sense of calm. Lisa and Dessi took GREAT care of me from day one and made the process so smooth and comfortable. I never felt rushed into anything as Dr. and his team took extensive measures to get to know me and figure out the best plan for my smile, each individual tooth, my facial structure, my life, all of the above. They got every detail down. After figuring out what we wanted to achieve for my smile- the process was very quick and easy. I got a massage in office before we put on my temporaries in addition to having blankets, a warm neck pad, and even a smoothie! All of that made a five hour procedure feel like only two hours. I loved my temporaries so much I forgot they were only temps! Seriously. I forgot to make my appointment to get the permanents, lol. So a couple months later we took off the temporaries and I got my permanent smile! I love it so much. It has truly changed my life. I am able to smile bigger and be my true self wherever I go. My smile no longer holds me back and I am so grateful to Dr. Okuda and his amazing team. read more

Wynn H Okuda, DMD - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The experience I had at Dr. Okudas office was like no other dental office I've been too. They live up their name dental day spa! Before the procedure started they had me choose movies on Netflix that I got to watch through movie glasses which made time fly by so quickly. I also had a foot, leg, arm and hand massage during the whole procedure. And when they gave me a quick break I also got a neck massage along with a jaw massage. I can't even explain how wonderful it felt and what an experience it was to have been so relaxed during a dental procedure! I had two teeth in the front and three teeth in the back worked on. I choose dr Okuda to fix my front teeth because I know how hard it is to match an existing tooth with composite. I was so amazed when I seen the finished product. You can't tell my natural tooth from my teeth he worked on. Now I find myself smiling more and bigger because I'm not ashamed of the different sizes of my front teeth anymore due to the chipping from wearing a tongue ring for a long period of time.. If you are looking for an ultimate experience at a spa like dental office I would recommend giving dr okudas office a call to see how they can help you! :) read more

I did the research and this is the professional to see. What an awesome experience and the outcome was truly remarkable. I've never been so relaxed during a visit to the dentist; the staff is fantastic. Thank You Dr. Okuda and your amazing staff too! Update: returned for a check up recently and again haven't felt this relaxed since 2019. Completely professional staff that follows covid guidelines in a very proactive way. I was well educated on best cleaning practices. I noticed the staff taking great effort to minimize the contact between people. Overall I reaffirmed, Dr. Okuda is the right choice and feel fortunate to have him as my Doctor! read more

Wynn H Okuda, DMD - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Oh Dr. Okuda, office and entire staff - ( especially the fabulous receptionist!) how do I love thee..! Dr. Okuda is extremely professional and knowledgeable, the facility is amazing - it really looks and feels like you are in a spa, not a dental office. Fortunately, I do not need cosmetic dental work ( but I have seen Dr. Okuda's work and it looks perfect). I go in for regular teeth cleanings and check ups. I love it! During my cleanings, I receive a hand and foot massage treatment, a warm blanket and listen to music ..... it certainly takes the 'edge' off of visiting the dentist. The teeth cleaning is actually 'relaxing' and my teeth always look smooth and shiny! I am giving Dr. Okuda's office 4 stars rather than 5 because of their payment policy. Be prepared to pay the full amount upfront ( even if you have dental ins.) Dr. Okuda's office requires that you pay the full amount up front and then they submit a claim to your insurance company and then the insurance company sends you a check for the covered portion. I am sure this makes it easier on Dr. Okuda because he gets paid upfront and does not need to deal with billing - but it makes it more difficult on the client because they have to wait for the insurance company to reimburse them. I wish they charged this policy. Other than the payment policy, this place is PERFECT : ) Parking is easy - underground lot and the office validates Beautiful office, amazing staff and great dentist! read more

I've had my share of fears in my lifetime, but none stronger than the fear of a dentist. But finally, I've found a dental practioner, nay, a mouth maestro, who is able to assuage any apprehension when I have to visit a dentist. Dr. Okuda, you da bomb! read more

MOST AMAZING DENTIST FACILITY IN THE STATE. I've had some nightmare experiences in Hawaii with dental institutions. This is an oasis. Staff remembers me and is friendly, complimentary refreshments, gooooorgeous and CLEAN office, and care I trust. These are all to be expected of any professional establishment, but sadly is not always the case. In addition to all this are bonuses! They aren't kidding when they say "spa." Massages that relax you through the procedure can be expected as well as MOVIE GOGGLES, yes... I said it: MOVIE GOGGLES (where you watch movies through goggles) while a procedure is being done. Usually those are for time consuming procedures like root canals. I would recommend this place to anyone. LOVE Dr. Okuda and everyone on the staff!!!! read more

Aloha, I recently moved back home to Hawaii to begin the next chapter of my life. I had some major dental issues that I had been putting off for years... I had been considering a post and crown or two, a bridge, and possibly invisaline braces to close some gaps between my teeth. After consulting with several dentists and periodontitis I discovered I was not a candidate for a post or the braces. I soon became aware of Dr. Okuda, the premier cosmetic dentist in Honolulu. I took a leap of faith and called Lisa to make an appointment for a complementary consultation. Upon arriving for my appointmentI, I felt immediately at home and embraced by Dr. Okuda's professional and loving staff. I knew by the beautiful environment that I had found the right fit for me. During my consultation with Dessi, the office manager, all my questions and concerns were answered in a very professional and thoughtful manner. When I met Dr. Okuda during the consultation I instantly felt safe and at ease...and excited about my new transformation. Considering the amount of work that I needed to have done, I really didn't experience any pain and very little discomfort. When I look in the mirror at my beautiful new smile, I feel so grateful for having found Dr. Okuda and his staff. I now feel so confident about myself and that confidence spills over to all aspects of my life. Thank you Dr. Okuda and staff for helping make my present and future bright. BDL read more

Dr. Okuda and staff still do an outstanding job. One is able to relax with a foot massage and watch a movie while they are working on your teeth. I look forward to the Christmas ornaments every year. read more

I started seeing Dr Okuda in 2012. My fear of the dentist crippled me and well my teeth were terrible. Lots of decay and old dental work that was starting to break down. Dr Okuda and his staff are nothing short of brilliant. I feel like the most important person in the world when I go there. I had full mouth reconstruction and have the prettiest teeth. My confidence is through the roof and I love to smile. More importantly my dental health is amazing and my fear of the dentist is gone! Every little touch has been thought of. From the massage therapist to the aroma therapy going on. Dr Okuda never stops learning and he often is called upon to lecture all over the world. He doesn't take insurance so you need to pay upfront. But they will submit your paperwork to your insurance. If you want to have an amazing smile and actually look forward to going to the dentist this is your place. You will feel like Dr Okuda and his staff are family. read more

I can't stop smiling. How grateful I am that I can cite my experience with Dr. Okuda and he's staff among my blessings! From my very first visit to the office, I was made to feel welcome and comfortable both by the friendly competence of the staff and the pleasant environment of the spa- like whit all the luxury of a spa. Aromatherapy, massages, movies and much more...I feel like I'm​ a princess when I'm there. Dr. Okuda  inspires the utmost confidence by the professionalism and knowledge  along  with superb workmanship, artistry and state of the art equipment. He took the time to explain every procedure. After over a year  and over $60,000  and countless hours of Dr. Okuda work I'm getting a full mouth restoration. My treatment is coming to an end, and soon I will be having the most beautiful smile that I could ever imagine possible. I'm getting my treatment  With Dr. Okuda through a program for victims of domestic violence, Dr. Okuda  is also the founder of this wonderful program. I don't think that a lot of people  know that!  I left my marriage after 27 years of abuse to start a new life, it is the biggest victory of my life. But I couldn't ​smile because after all the years of abuse and not being allowed to see a dentist my mouth was in a very bad shape. Dr. Okuda gave me back the confidence that I need  to start over. He gave me the most powerful tool I  can possibly have in my new life. my beautiful smile . I have the biggest admiration and respect for Dr. Okuda,  he is the most kind gentle soul I ever met in my life. I'm looking for a bright future as bright as my new smile. read more

"Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile... and sometimes your smile is the source of your joy." ~Thich Nhat Hanh My heart overflows with gratitude as I enthusiastically express my deepest appreciation to Dr. Wynn Okuda and his talented team of professionals at the Dental Day Spa who have given me that which I have longed for my whole life... a breathtakingly beautiful smile. After nearly 20 years of living with a major malocclusion (open overbite) and a missing front tooth since an accident in my adolescence, I finally can truly say that my smile has become the source of my joy. Upon completing two years of orthodontic Invisalign treatment to successfully correct my malocclusion under the care of one of Oahu's top orthodontists, Dr. Sean Holliday, I made the decision to invest in the final phase of perfecting my smile through cosmetic dentistry. My mother came upon Dr. Wynn Okuda of the Dental Day Spa serendipitously through an article that appeared on her Facebook newsfeed detailing his distinction as a worldwide leader in his field. Upon learning of his Accredited Fellowship as one of only 63 dentists in the world recognized by his colleagues and the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and finding out that his highly-regarded and sought-after practice was right here on Oahu, I knew right then and there that I would have given anything to become Dr. Okuda's newest patient. As an advocate for social justice, in addition to the opportunity to be under the care of one of the world's leading cosmetic dentists, I was most profoundly moved by Dr. Okuda and Julie Bouvier's noteworthy founding of the "Give Back A Smile" program, as they galvanized the dental community in transforming the lives of survivors of domestic violence through restoring their smiles. From my very first consultation at the Dental Day Spa with former Practice Manager, Julie Bouvier, it was immediately evident that this practice has truly earned its reputation as the very best on Oahu. Our initial consultation lasted about two hours (longer than any initial consultation afforded to me by previous cosmetic dentists), and Julie detailed Dr. Okuda's unique approach in answering each and every question about my individual case with transparency and expertise. She made sure I felt valued as an individual client, explained every aspect of what I could expect and worked through a treatment plan that I felt comfortable with. Julie's initial assessment, confirmed by Dr. Okuda during my second consultation, came as a surprise to me because it was the first time I was advised that I was not a candidate for an implant due to concerns about complications over time. In educating me about my individual case and Dr. Okuda's approach in building a beautiful smile upon a foundation of health and function first, I was empowered to make a fully informed decision to invest in my smile. Cost was one of my main concerns, potentially disallowing me to go through with this treatment. For this reason, I am so grateful to current Practice Manager, Dessi Pacheco, for working with Dr. Okuda to consider my budget range, thus ensuring care would be within my financial reach. Becoming a patient of Dr. Wynn Okuda of the Dental Day Spa was one of the best decisions of my life. Never once have I experienced any pain or discomfort while in the patient's chair. In fact, with every visit I feel like I am giving myself a gift. With each visit, I am welcomed with warmest greetings by Lisa and/or Irene at the front desk, I am soon whisked away by massage therapist, Ava, who offers me a warm towel for my hands and face along with a plush blanket and warm neck pillow and gives me a personalized massage while I am in the dental chair. Before long, I get to catch up on my favorite Netflix episode or just relax with some classical or spa sounds while letting Dr. Okuda and his talented team of assistants, Amber, Chelsie and Jayvee work their magic. By the end of my visit, I feel relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated and all I have to do is sit up and watch the evolution of my beautiful smile. From my very first consultation and visit, right through to my final visit, Dr. Okuda ensured that I understood what to expect, he thoroughly explained any risk or challenges of each and every procedure, and was fully attuned and receptive to my own input as a partner in the development and crafting of my teeth. Each time I left the office, my smile became more and more beautiful. The temporary veneers Dr. Okuda crafted during the course of my treatment were so life-like that even my orthodontist was impressed! As I got my first set of permanent veneers, Dr. Okuda encouraged me to take careful notes of the shape, size, color and contouring to assure it was a perfect match. I felt valued as a participant in my care, and as I finally was fitted with my second and final set of permanent veneers... perfect in every way... I felt proud of my smile we had together created. read more

I have been going to Dr. Okuda's office since I was in middle school and have always been completely satisfied with their service and professionalism. After getting in a rather disastrous bike accident as a kid, I needed root canals and veneers to replace my broken teeth. My front teeth look completely natural and no one can tell they aren't real, which was on purpose by Dr. Okuda. Like an artist, he created my new teeth to look good in my unique smile. I know no other office can take care of my dentistry needs as well as Dental Day Spa of Hawaii. Trust me, you will feel like a king or queen and receive amazing service. I love how kind and personable the front desk is, and I always love catching up with the hygienist during my semiannual cleanings. You will not be disappointed. (: I LOVE MY TEETH! read more

A smile is a powerful thing. Everyone looks more appealing when they smile. I used to want to cover up my smile because I did not like my teeth. I had terrible teeth. I had silver crowns when I was a child for replacements of my 2 front teeth (knocked out falling of a bike when I was 8), I had huge fangs, new crowns, then came braces for 5 years, including the head band, and I still did not like my teeth. Then I discovered Dr. Wynn Okuda's Dental Spa. What a blessing. As soon as I walked through the door, the pampering began. They even have a masseuse that will gently massage your shoulders, hands and feet while getting some treatments. The front desk and the technicians are very friendly and caring, but I am most impressed with Dr. Okuda. You can view the transformation photos of his work all over the office as well as his multiple awards for being the "BEST COSMETIC DENTIST". Those speak for themselves. But what you might not know, is that he is a perfectionist, and he is an artist, and he is also PAIN FREE! Yay! He uses all of the latest in state of the art technology as well. Many celebrities use him because he is the BEST. Thank you Dr. Okuda, for giving me the smile I've always wanted. Now a quote from Will Ferrell in "Elf", I LOVE SMILING! SMILING'S MY FAVORITE!!! read more

Love my porcelain veneers from Dr. Okuda. I had previously gotten veneers done by another dentist and was very unhappy with the results. After a couple years of hating my smile I decided to contact Dr. Okuda to fix what the other dentist had done, and I'm so glad I did. My smile looks perfect but natural, exactly what I always wanted. I wish I had gone to Dr. Okuda in the first place and not wasted my money somewhere else. Also, the practice is beautiful and I love getting pampered with massages while I'm getting work done. The staff are all wonderful. Thank you for my new smile Dr. Okuda! read more

I appreciate you, Dr. Okuda! Your work is impeccable, your staff is great, and I've never liked going to a dental office before until I started going to your practice...it's more than a dental office! It's a spa-like experience with the highest quality results. Never thought I could be so relaxed while getting my teeth worked on. Not to mention you turned a horrible event in my life when I busted my teeth to something great. It was worth every single penny and more. Thank you! read more

I am a really big chicken when it comes to the dentist, but I have come to trust Dr. Okuda. He has been my dentist for over 14 years now! I could never go to anyone else!

You have the option of watching a movie when you are having a procedure done. This helps to take my mind off of being at the dentist! Dr. Okuda is truly a professional, caring dentist! Thanks Dr. Okuda! read more

Without a doubt Dr. Wynn Okuda is the best cosmetic dentist. As soon as you walk in to his office you feel automatically soothed. Not only is the interior that of a spa, it also smells like a spa! The staff is amazing and when you are in Dr. Okudas chair, You know you are in excellent hands. His state of the art dentistry equipment is like no other I have ever experienced. So much so that when he photographed my teeth with a camera that looked like a pencil with a light on it, the quality was amazing and it popped up on a screen there for you to see and understand where if any problems are! I got to see first hand the damage within my tooth below the surface were fine line cracks I would have never known about. Needless to say they were on the brink of snapping and falling apart, so the good news is...I am saving my tooth with a veneer that is his specialty. I am so grateful that he is here in Hawaii and will only get my teeth done by him! Also if you ever get a shot and dread it??? I don't feel a thing when he gives me a shot! HOPE this review helps take the fear out of going to get your grill fixed! :) read more
