This is by far the best dental office I have ever been too! Up until now I have only had bad experiences with going to the dentist, I would avoid at all cost to go because I was so scared.. Dr. Jung is truly amazing, he has helped me get thru my fear of getting dental procedures done. I was even falling asleep while getting a root canal done, unreal! Every dental assistant has been such a blessing. Change your office and come here, you will not regret it! I found my dentist that I will always be coming too. So incredibly grateful.

Everyone here is amazing, but one of the staff stood out the most. Melinda, one of the dental assistants was so positive and fun, I spent half of my appointment laughing. If you are going to another dentist, call them right now, break up with them and start coming to Dental Health Associates!!!!

I went to them years ago- 2017 or 2018. I had tons of cavities which was really odd. However, I thought because I had been in a bad car wreck and wasn’t able to care for myself properly, that this was the cause. Anyways, I get all these cavities fixed, and I immediately notice a problem even with my face mostly still numb. There were ridges. So I… call and they say come back the next day.
I do. They had to file down almost all the places the had fixed, because they didn’t smooth down whatever the filling material was after setting. I had a place that specifically was cutting

This is the best dental clinic I’ve ever been to, everyone is so friendly and fun to talk to! They genuinely care about their patients wellbeing and they go above and beyond to take care of their patients ♥️ I’m so sad to be moving soon, I wish I could bring this clinic with me wherever I go.

They are friendly and very welcoming. Dr. Jung is awesome and explains what will go on and so will the assistant. If you have an appt they send out reminders a few days so you dont forget and a day before as well. They also will remind you of what to do after getting something done, first the Doctor then, the assistant, and then when you check out. So this shows me that they are all a team and are all aware of what is going on with their patient. They also do payment plans unlike some other Dental Clinics. Theybsre awesome and Highly recommended.

Dr. Jung and his team have made every effort over my time as a patient to ensure my experience always goes well above expectations. You cannot possibly be in better care - any questions or concerns are immediately addressed and you will leave feeling good about your visit. They make sure you are comfortable and taken care of, always. Highly recommend!!

I HIGHLY recommend Dental Health Associates!! I have major dental anxiety and Dr Stevens was so informative and extremely empathetic to my situation. Suzy and the rest of the gals here are also so so warm and welcoming it’s really a great atmosphere. I had a crown done and felt ZERO PAIN!! The office is super clean and hygienic, it’s been the best dental experience I’ve ever had!

I've been going to Dental Health Associates for maybe five years and really like the way they have taken care of my dental issues and regular cleanings. Dr. Jung recently replaced an old crown and I couldn't be happier with the results. I've had two crowns and an implant placed by Dr. Jung, along with many fillings, and everything has worked out great. I moved to Seattle three years ago but still keep coming back for the excellent work and friendly service. Melinda and Kim on the team have been super helpful, and those doing my cleanings have always been gentle.

Every pediatric dentist we visited wanted to put our 4 year old under anesthesia to do some minor work. We are grateful we got a third opinion by Dr. Michael Stevens. He did an excellent job, didn't have to put her under, he and his staff made our 4 year old and our other two daughters feel extremely comfortable at their check ups as well.
Skip the pediatric dentists and bring the entire family to be seen by an excellent dentist and friendly, welcoming staff!

What a great find! Didn't think I would say that about a dentist but this place really is the Bees Knees! DR. Stevenson does amazing work, he is very thorough, professional, kind and is always making sure you are comfortable. The rest of the staff are amazing as well. They offer Parrafin hand wax while you're getting your teeth cleaned, free coffee in the waiting room, WiFi and free child care! They definitely do not drop the ball here. I am always kept up to date, things are always thoroughly explained to me. To top it all off you can't beat there pricing, very fair!

I’ve been a patient here since I was 6 years old. When I got married and quit my job, I had to switch. Worst thing ever. This new “dentist” severely hurt my husband and after I got a new insurance, I went back. Dr. Jung is my third dentist at DHA and I will never go anywhere else.

I've gone to many dentist, and Mike Stevens is the best! The practice is very clean, modern and efficient! Sometimes it can be scary going to the dentist because you aren't sure if they are just trying to make money off you, this place is the opposite, you know that they are in your corner, just trying to do what is right for your mouth, and your health with a long term approach. I've taken all my chidden here and they love it, they are super comfortable and are actually doing better with taking care of their teeth. I highly recommend coming here and bringing the whole family! You

You can read the reviews on here and see where my review is heading..
This place is awesome. Have had anxiety for a long time, and going to get any kind of medical stuff done always ramps that up. Everyone at this office made the experience so much easier.
Originally came in to get braces, ended up having my wisdom teeth pulled (quick and painless), and getting invisalign, and absolutely loved it.
I recently got married and about 2 months prior to the wedding I contacted Kim, asking about getting a teeth whitening done for my wedding. They did it for me for free as a wedding gift!
Absolutely

Everything about both of my visits was amazing! Dr. Jung was spectacular at explaining everything that he was going to do. Melinda was amazing at helping me when the numbing anesthetic made me extremely dizzy and light headed. She made sure I was given lots of extra time to feel comfortable enough to sit up and walk. The headphones were helpful and I did not have any issues once the work was done. Wonderful job by all involved!
The front desk ladies are also really friendly, especially Kim, who handles the accounting. She is very understanding about payments and always works something out in a

Just had my childrens very first appointment today and they were so amazing and patient with them. They showed them everything they were going to use and explained what they were going to do before they did it. My kids left with their bag of goodies and couldn't wait to get home and use their new tooth brushes they got! :)

A GREAT DENTAL OFFICE OVERALL!!!
My 6 year old and I seen Dr. Mike Stevens. Was great with my 6 year old and great with me and I have a fear of the dentist. Explained stuff and was helpful.
Dr. Sean Jung: I left frustrated and in tears.. I hope it was just the communication because the whole office is great and next time I will just make sure they are understanding the whole thing and I will now request his records and take them in hand.

Dr. Jung and Helena are amazing. I had to have a unexpected root canal and they were quick and comforting. My first visit was very comprehensive and made me feel at ease. I even received a call from Dr. Jung personally the evening after my root canal was done. I was able to go back to work right after having the root canal with pretty much no pain. Their team from the front desk to check out have great attitudes and really put patient care first. I highly recommend them for any dental work.

Dr. Jung and his dental staff are amazing! Helena and Shannon are the definition of amazing customer service. They make sure everyone feels really comfortable and well taken care of. They also offer Patafin Wax dips and childcare on Wednesdays and Thursdays. They always make me feel comfortable and took away the anxiety of the dentist! Love my dentist office!

I have the worst dental phobia ever but this dental office eased my mind a little bit! They have such amazing staffs and have a wonderdul welcoming athmosphere that they will make you feel at home. I got all my wisdom tooth pulled and throughout everything I was made sure that I was alright. I don't know about other people's experience with extractions but I felt absolutely no pain at all! Even postprocedure I'm still wondering when the pain is going to hit! Hehe This is the best dental office I have been so far!

1) Only a 4, well I review on all aspects and -1 star because of their insurance billing. It sucks that I have double coverage but I can only use 1 insurance so its still expensive!!!

2) 4 whole stars. Well, the office is clean. For my initial appt I didn't wait for than 10 minutes and was seen with X-rays, than dentist came in to speak to me about the issues. He was great, informative and very "cool". So it was pleasant. Then for my second visit, I saw the incredible Shelly to clean my icky mouth after 6 years of neglect. But my fav phrase, My kids mouths are amazing, I just forgot

I was gifted with a LivingSocial deal to try out this office, and I am glad I went. From start to finish, everyone I contacted was friendly and extremely pleasant.

I was quite surprised when my hygenist invited me to have a paraffin bath for my hands! Felt like I was in a spa! She was very competent and thorough with the x-rays and cleaning, and chatted about this and that as she cared for me.

Dr. Jung is a very personable dentist, who went over my x-rays with me and explained why I need the work done, in a very understandable way. I would trust him with my care - it's just that without
