The brand of the toothbrush is not as critical as the type of bristle and the size of the head. A soft toothbrush with a small head is recommended because medium and hard brushes tend to cause irritation and contribute to recession of the gums, and a small head allows you to get around each tooth more completely and is less likely to injure your gums.

The receptionist here is VERY rude ! She does not know how to talk to people. She talks down to you as if you are incompetent. She needs to be replaced , and maybe then I can add another star.

I adore this practice. After relocating to Delaware for work, I needed a new dentist and couldn't have been happier to find Dr. Nguyen! Dr. Nguyen has given me multiple fillings, replaced a crown of mine, removed three of my wisdom teeth and given me regular cleanings over the past three years. He is so personable and gentle! Dr. Nguyen works quickly and carefully, and informs you of everything he is doing. I have not had any pain here and can't believe there are any negative reviews! The receptionist (should know her name) is so friendly and even went above and beyond to call my insurance company

After living in this area for 25 years and trying various dentists, I am very happy to find this practice. The dentist is excellent and will see you promptly if you are in pain. He is flexible for folks without insurance. My whole family has gone here now for 2 years and we couldn't be happier.

I have had tooth pain from years of dental work that I thought was just normal. I moved to the area recently and needed an annual checkup. After 2 short appointments years of dental work gone wrong was corrected and no more pain. Dr Nguyen is awesome. My wife agrees.

First of all I am afraid of the dentist so this experience did not help the issue. I am still in extreme pain and it's been a week since I have been there. Although the staff is extremely friendly it seems as though they don't know what they are doing or lack experience.
