Dr. Anh graduated dental school in 1994 from the University of the Pacific. She has been practicing dentistry for over 25 years. She is passionate about providing the best quality dental care to children of all ages while creating a stress free experience for the parents and their children. She strives to treat every patient as if they are her only patients.
With kids, we want to ensure that they enjoy their dental visit at our office. We use "Tell-Show-Do" technique to help your child understand what to expect next. This means that we first explain what we will do in simple, non-threatening words. Then, we'll show them by demonstrating what we will do.
The way your teeth align and meet together is known as occlusion. Typically, the upper teeth rest above the lower teeth when your jaw is closed and the top surfaces of the molars line up. However, teeth do not always match up. Malocclusion of the teeth is a misalignment problem that can lead to serious oral health complications.
Taking an impression for treatments such as dental crowns and Invisalign has always been a difficult task in the clinical dental field. The wide array of patient mouth morphology makes it nearly impossible to take a perfect impressions in reality. This makes dentists' job more difficult and the patients' experience more arduous.
Dental CBCT, standing for cone-beam computed tomography, is a more advanced form of a dental X-ray that gives dentists and prosthodontists more comprehensive information about the health and state of patients' mouths, gums, and teeth.
Dental CBCT systems have been sold in the United States since the early 2000s and are increasingly used by radiologists and dental professionals for various clinical applications including, but not limited to, dental implant planning, visualization of abnormal teeth, evaluation of the jaws and face, cleft palate assessment, diagnosis of dental caries (cavities), endodontic (root canal) diagnosis, and diagnosis of dental trauma.

Horrific experience.. had a cavity and dentist drilled off literally half my tooth in 2 minutes and said she is done. The cleaning was her smashing a hook one time in between each tooth.. no scraping. She was mad at me for not wanting silver fillings so she destroyed my teeth. Insane. The staff are terrible as well had no idea how to take an xray had to get help from the snobby guy at the front desk. Filed a formal complaint and they are not done with me yet.

Updating my review based on my second visit to this office with my kids. We were on time for our appointment but was seen an hour later…then informed the Dentist wasn’t in. After waiting for an hour, my kid was only in the dental chair for less than 5 mins. The dental hygienist didn’t seem to care at all and just rush through with the “cleaning” process - which was only polishing and flossing - I could have done all that at home! Then the hygienist informed me that I had to come back for an actual exam with the Dentist…very disappointed with the service received

I had an appointment for my first visit and everything went absolutely amazing. I did not have to wait and was taken in for xrays and consultations. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. They explained everything well, kept very professional, and was very friendly. I had a positive experience! Would definitely refer friends and family here.

Horrible experience from the first second I walked in. From bad communication to terrible customer service. When I had a 10am appointment, I waited over 45 min just to get seen, waited an additional 20 minutes to get my X-rays. They lack on informing you about your treatment process. They claim i needed two feelings but yet I came out with 5. Once you are seating down on the chair it's a completely different thing. I seat on the chair with the tube in my mouth and had to wait 10 minutes while they gather everything they needed to work on my mouth. Be aware that all of their equipment is outdated

I found this office on google and scheduled because of the reviews! The front desk girl is really nice and very caring to the kids. The office manager and the doctor and rest of the staff are so nice and gentle and informative. They also see adults! Which I love because it makes it so much easier for me. They also do braces! all in 1. I would recommend this office to everyone!

This place is AMAZING!!! I just finished taking my two children here. It was their first visit to the dentist. My daughter is 3 (going on 4 next week) and my son is 2 (going on 3) the staff was so nice and sweet. They have a play room full of toys and games for the kids to enjoy while they wait. The dentist assistant was so nice and explained everything she was doing to the kids while getting X-rays done. The dentist herself was so nice, she took the children to get toys after she examined them and the assistant was very gentle with their cleaning and sang to them. I would recommend this place

If I could give ZERO Stars I would - this dentist is strictly looking to rip off people that can't afford any treatment. They claim they are charging you and you are in need of a deep cleaning & then they spend 15 minutes on your cleaning. They mislead you to believe you will only pay one fee and then tack on additional charges once you are there for services. They have no interest in patient care! STAY AWAY!!!

We have finally found a great kids dentist! Having Medi-cal I have had an extremely hard time finding a good dentist that accepts our insurance. We have had way too many bad experiences at other places, to the point that my 3 little ones were all super nervous about going to the dentist. Other places have been unnecessarily rough, hurt my kids, pushed 2 unnecessary crowns, and then told me another crown was needed. It made no sense that a regularly brushed tooth that had no cavity 7 months ago suddenly I was told it needed a crown. Desperate to find another dentist

It's my first time coming this office, and I'm so relief to say that I've found a great dental office for my son.Upon arriving, I noticed how clean and well organized the office was. Staff at the front desk was really helpful and friendly. When it was time for my son to go inside, staff treated him in a very welcoming and friendly way.Procedures that needed to be done were explained with detail. I'm going to coming back for his follow ups here. Thanks for the great service staff!

I would not even allow one star to this office but I want to make sure I could write a review to warn other families. I have never written a review before on yelp but this experience was just so unnerving it must be done. I was not happy with the treatment that either of my kids received in this office. Initial cleaning and x ray appointments went okay apart from them asking my 13 year old questions about wanting to play in the play room accommodated for 2-5 year olds.
Appointment for my youngest daughter (age 8) was to consist of several fillings-for which I was given a break down of cost

I was disappointed by our experience here. I did lots of research prior to bringing my kids here and truly felt I had found a great dentist that would work well with my kids.
Unfortunately, they did not even attempt to make my son comfortable (he has Down syndrome) and at the first sign of resistance, they just said "we can just skip his cleaning today". I use Denti-Cal so I am sure they still got paid for it even though they didn't actually do anything at all.
My reason for not coming back is mostly based on the lack of effort in trying to accommodate my son. I waited to write
