To be fair and honest, I knew Peter in H.S., so maybe Im biased, but when it comes to dental care, I dont believe bias of a persons nature can overcome their skill at treating you while also taking care of your overall comfort (Though in case you are wondering, his character is way above par. Hes a spectacular human.) Regardless of our personal connection, Im predominantly picky about my dentists (when finances allow me to be so). And he has not just hit the mark for a great one, but exceeded it. Both my uncle and cousin are dentists, and yet I have never been one to take care of my dental needs as well as I should have. I have a mess of a mouth. Its terrible but true. Part of it is due to both bad genes and personal neglect on my part earlier in life, other due to not being able to afford treatment at times, and the rest due to the fact that even though I sometimes had access via my family members, it has always been a severely uncomfortable process for me. I feel the judgement as soon as I open my mouth. Its not even the pain or frustration of the procedure, its the mental aspects that keep me away from going to the dentist. I am actually excited to further my treatment with Dr. Dang. He helped me find a great endodontist for the complicated root canal I needed after a "fast-food" dentist left several pockets of decay under my last crown (the last guy was hoping hed get to charge me for the root canal eventually, Im sure). His staff went out of their way to contact my insurance and make sure I was covered, even though the crown was done just a year ago, and my insurance usually doesnt cover replacement within 5 years. I have much more work that needs to be addressed, and I have never felt in safer hands, knowing that even if it is not easy, both Dr. Dang and his staff are fighting for me. They have all been so patient, thoughtful, proactive, and responsive to my needs. Dental work can be terrifying, even if you understand it well. Dr. Dang goes out of his way to ensure you are comfortable, that you understand what is happening and why, and also allows you to be a part of the decision making process, rather than trying to force procedures on you that are unnecessary. He is a gentle hand, an intelligent mind, and a good soul who has all of his patients best interests at heart. If youve been putting it off and need a new dentist, this man is your go-to. 100%

A place with almost 5-star reviews? You could say I was a little skeptical at first--especially since my childhood dentist of 18+ years sucked--but the visit was actually a very pleasant experience! So obviously, at first, I wasnt too excited about this visit, especially when it was a super random one while I was down here for work. I was due for my cleaning and my new dentist back home in NorCal hadnt called me yet to schedule (umm, dont you care about me as a patient/client?) BUT my orthodontist was expecting me with a freshly cleaned mouth at my next appointment in a few days. Ugh, whats a girl to do?? Some of my friends knew Dr. Dang and since I had some pockets of downtime from work, I called to see if I could be seen and apparently, the dentist who owned the practice previously had been closed Tuesdays, so it was a slow day for them--lucky me?! Im also extremely cautious when driving a rented car, so I was really appreciative that the staff told me I didnt have to pay for parking, despite the signs (its only for 3+ hrs). Whew, so far so good. Since it was a slow day for them, I had the pleasure of having Dr. Dang himself do my cleaning. Dr. Dang patiently took his time to get to know me and I think he could feel some of my anxiety coz he asked me straight up lol. I told him how my childhood dentist would always rush, haphazardly nick my gums and make my mouth bleed. With that being said, Dr. Dang was so gentle!! One of the things I appreciated the most was the fact that right off the bat, he established with me a non-startling signal (raise/wave my left hand) to indicate to him that I was uncomfortable. Do you know why? Because usually theres some tool, usually whirring, in my mouth when Im uncomfortable and I dont want to startle the dentist and have him accidentally do something worse! Also, he always gave me a heads up whenever he was going to work on a new area of my mouth, what sensations to expect, etc. The cherry on top was that I was able to close my eyes during the cleaning and actually relax. I mean, I almost fell asleep! I was tired from work but thats gotta be saying something

Not only is Dr. Dang incredibly knowledgeable and talented, he actually cares about every patient he sees. He takes the time to really talk to you about whats going on in your mouth and what hes going to do to help you. Hes never chastised me, or made me feel embarrassed about neglecting the care of my teeth for as long as I did. He actually encouraged me to do a better job taking care of myself, and genuinely expresses concern where concern (if any) is due. His staff is so kind and efficient, and they obviously enjoy working together as a team. Hes the best dentist Ive ever had. If you see him for an appointment, youll definitely break up with your current dentist.

Dr. Dang is awesome! For my first visit, I came in for an exam, xrays, and cleaning. I appreciated that he took his time with me, since Im kind of scared of dentists in general. He was really thorough (yet gentle) with my cleaning, answered all of my weird questions, and explained everything really well. He even took photos of my gums with a cool little camera and mentioned that I was probably brushing too hard. I could tell hes really knowledgable and genuinely cares about treating people right. I didnt need any other work, but I might get Invisalign or whiten my teeth before my next cleaning appointment!

I couldnt speak more positively about my experience with Dr. Dang! I havent always had great experiences with dentists in the past (some of my own fault, of course!) but Ive never felt better cared for than with Dr. Dang. He is encouraging, optimistic and understanding, both patient with questions and giving clear honest, answers. He has a manner of dealing with patients that actually makes me look forward to going to the dentist!

Dr. Dang and his staff were great! They were all so welcoming from the beginning to the very end. I showed up couple minutes early for my appointment and they were able to get me seen without any delays. The cleaning process was super gentle and Dr. Dang was very open about what work I needed to get done without pushing me to get the work done right away. I would highly recommend Dr. Dang and his staff!

Staff was very efficient and personable. Equipment was very modern. For once, my X-rays were digital, not on some weird film. Plenty of Free Parking (Disregard the signs, they are only if you stay for more than 3 hours) Dr. Dang did a great and thorough job, Im very pleased.

Out to make money and does know what fraud is. He tried to sell me three caps on three different teeth. I had a second opinion and this other dentist said no dont need it right now. Watch your wallet he is out to make a buck off of you.
