    Yang orthodontics
    Amanda B.

    Updated review: I really appreciated that Dr. Yang personally called me the same day to explain the situation. He was very understanding and took the time to clarify what happened, which reassured me. I trust that he and his team will handle things professionally moving forward. Although the past few months have been frustrating with delays and communication gaps, I believe Dr. Yang truly cares about his patients. I hope the office improves its processes to prevent similar issues and provide smoother care for other families. ---------------- We signed up for an 18-month Invisalign treatment at Yang Orthodontics for my 9-year-old daughter. The first 14 months of the treatment were smooth, and we were satisfied with the progress. However, everything started to go downhill once my daughter's adult teeth began growing in, which caused her aligners to no longer fit properly. Instead of taking new scans and creating updated aligners to match her changing teeth, the specialist simply had her continue wearing the old, ill-fitting aligners. The upper aligner in particular was constantly popping out of place, which was clearly not effective or comfortable for my daughter. At her December 2024 appointment, the specialist acknowledged the issue, confirming that the aligner wasn't fitting well. However, rather than fixing it right then and there, we were told, "Let's take care of it at your next visit," since it was near the end of the day. This felt dismissive and careless--especially knowing that the aligner wasn't doing its job and my daughter had to keep wearing it until the next appointment. By the time the next appointment came, which was supposed to be her final visit before transitioning to a retainer, we ran into the same issue again. The final set of aligners didn't fit at all because they had been made from outdated scans, obviously no longer reflecting her current teeth. At that appointment, they suggested quickly making a temporary aligner that we could pick up later the same day. That meant yet another trip back to the office for a short-term solution, which felt like another wasted effort. We assumed that from there they would take proper records and ensure the final retainer would be updated accordingly. But no. In January 2025, we went back for another appointment to get her teeth re-scanned so they could remake the retainer properly. We were told it would take about three weeks to complete. So we waited. Then, just a few days before her scheduled retainer pick-up appointment, the office called me to say the retainer wasn't ready yet and would take another three weeks--pushing us into mid-February. Every single appointment required my daughter to miss school in the morning, which added to the inconvenience. But we were patient and understanding, thinking this would be the last delay. Finally, today (March 2025), after waiting nearly two extra months, we arrived for our long-awaited 9:30 AM appointment to finally pick up the retainer. My daughter once again missed school. We checked in, only to be told that the retainer still wasn't ready and, worse yet, they didn't know why. Honestly, what kind of system is this? How does the office not know why the retainer isn't ready? Why wasn't anyone following up with the lab or manufacturer beforehand to make sure it was completed and delivered on time? Why weren't we informed before the appointment so we didn't have to waste yet another morning? At this point, we are beyond frustrated. This process has been exhausting--so many wasted trips, so much missed school, and a complete lack of communication and proper follow-up from the clinic. What started as a smooth Invisalign journey has turned into an ongoing headache, all because of poor management, lack of attention to detail, and failure to prioritize patient care. I sincerely hope Yang Orthodontics takes a hard look at their operations and fixes these issues. Families are trusting you with their children's treatment, time, and well-being. We deserve better.

    Amazing staff and overall a great experience to see these folks throughout my journey. They're very transparent from beginning to end, making sure I'm on track to finish treatment with my braces. I can tell the staff really cares about their patients, ensuring everyone leaves with a smile!

    Finished my Invisalign with the best team I could ask for! My teeth are polished, aligned and I love my smile the whole team through this year have been patient, informative, professional and amazing throughout. Highly highly highly recommend coming here for your teeth

    OMG!!!! Best orthodontist ever, not to mention his incredible staff. My 12yr old son just finished Phase I of his ortho treatment and he looks AMAZING. He went from his front teeth flaring out and crowded to the point where he couldn't cut into foods to beautifully, aligned teeth. Dr. Yang was so thorough and so professional and his staff were so sweet. His assistant, Thomas, was incredibly fast and gentle at the same time. I can't recommend a better orthodontist and my son loved their office as well. Thank you so much Dr. Yang and team!

    I can't say enough about this place. The staff is unreal nice. From your first meeting with the front desk to Sylvia who explains the process and and answers all your questions regarding payment and payment plans and your options. From the initial scan, to all the visits. All were helpful, kind and well educated in their field. I also thank my dental hygienist, because without her I would have never done this . And of course, my dentist Dr Timothy Choy, he does a superb job on composites. My time here was awesome. Unforgettable great experience. Super happy with my results! Thank you Dr Yang, Tomas, Grace, Sylvia, and everyone else!!! Staff is very knowledgeable, technology is state of the art, all questions are answered and there is no pressure. They made it easy and such an inviting family oriented atmosphere. I love the energy here. Thank you to everyone. I'll be back to visit :-)

    Reviewing this after completing my braces treatment (and as an adult, 22 now, who went through the experience)!! Came here so I could get some ortho help for my double jaw surgery journey. I'm forever grateful to Yang Orthodontics and their wonderful staff, i've been in a lot of offices and have been going to people since I was about 9 years old for braces, but the warmth and sincerity felt with them is what made them different from the rest. Making the switch over to Yang Orthodontics was one of the best decisions I've made. Alicia who usually tends to me is very kind and she made me feel very comfortable every visit. Thomas is another staff who would take care of my teeth, he's very funny and a cool dude. Grace, another wonderful person there, was always so welcoming and kind. Silvia is super sweet too. And Dr.Yang is just amazing and it was easy to put my full trust in him. He explained things well and made me feel less anxious about how my treatment was going. Every person in that office is a gem and good vibes always. Also omg the staff writes you letters!! I always thought that was so sweet and something people don't do now a days. Kind gestures like that make this Yang Orthodontics stand out too. I know from first glimpse it might look like a kid office, but it's more than that! Adult braces and adult orthodontics experience here is a 10/10. Personally, I never felt weird going there as a 18+ patient. I actually loved the decor and color of the place.

    We have been patients at San Carlos Orthodontics for the past couple of years, and I cannot say…read moreenough wonderful things about our experience. My oldest daughter just had her braces removed, and the results are absolutely stunning, her smile is completely transformed and every single tooth is perfectly aligned. Dr. Lau is incredibly meticulous and detail-oriented. You can tell he truly cares about getting everything just right, and it shows in the final results. He never rushes the process and makes sure each tooth is exactly where it should be before moving forward. That level of dedication gives you so much confidence as a parent. A special shoutout to Lacey, who has been absolutely wonderful throughout our time here. The front office staff is equally impressive, always warm, kind, and helpful every time we walk through the door. Scheduling, questions, follow-ups, they handle everything with a smile and make the whole process seamless. If you're looking for an orthodontist who combines exceptional clinical skill with a genuinely caring team, look no further than San Carlos Orthodontics. We are beyond satisfied and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation!

    I can't say enough good things about Dr. Lau! The first thing I immediately noticed was his kind,…read morepatient, and good-natured demeanor. He was really gentle and thorough with my kids' teeth examination. Then, he took the time to listen to our concerns and objectives. And finally, he went past closing just to tell us more about his recommendations, all while never being pushy. Our family has seen him for everything from expanders to Invisalign to Hawley retainers. There's a reason our whole family completely trusts Dr. Lau for our orthodontic care. Some other notable things about his practice: * Staff and Reception: His receptionists are amazing--organized, friendly, and patient. We've had experiences with several dental offices, some of which have great dentists but curt receptionists (and vice versa). More importantly, you can rest assured they'll follow up promptly if you have questions. His dental staff are all super friendly, too! * Community Support: I really appreciate how Dr. Lau's practice is so supportive of the San Carlos community. I've seen him sponsor everything from walkathons to AYSO. * Office: My kids love the chocolate chip cookies and juice boxes in the waiting room. Also, it is modern and clean. I highly recommend him to any adult or child looking for orthodontic care!

The tech they use here is pretty new with nice cameras to take picture of you and a 3D teeth scan tool. The person who helped with my X-rays and scans (Ashley?) had really great bedside manner with good commentary about what she was doing and what she wanted me to do next. Dr Yoo saw me afterwards and mapped a plan out after some examination. She seemed to know what she was doing but also would've been nice to have her ask if I had any questions. Her assistance Darlene did leave me her contact if I needed any assistance. It was clear to me what the expectations for cost was and the next steps. Overall a good experience and definitely a candidate for my ortho treatment.

    Extremely disappointing experience with Palo Alto Orthodontics. While Dr. Yoo and staff are…read morepleasant, they did not deliver. In fact, several months and many thousand dollars later, they made my teeth worse rather than better. Please see the before and after pictures below. I came to Dr. Yoo with a smile shown in the first and second photos below. My teeth looked good but she thought we could further straighten and improve my smile for the long term. After straightening and even shaving my teeth, the results actually made my smile (much) worse. My teeth were pulled down and gaps were introduced. Even if in theory this is a "straighter bite" in reality this is a worse smile for thousands of dollars and a big waste of time. Plus, now food gets stuck in my teeth. When asked if she could fix the gap her only solutions was further shaving my teeth (permanent damage) or sending me to another expert to do yet another procedure. Very disappointing. Would not recommend.
