It is our goal at Northwest Dental Arts to offer the very best dental care to our patients. We work hard to keep our office up to date with the latest dental technologies.

Crowns - A tooth can lose its normal shape and size for a variety of reasons. A crown covers your tooth to help restore its original shape and size. Crowns can also be used to make teeth stronger and look better. Crowns have a variety of uses. In some cases that require a large filling, there isn't enough tooth remaining to keep the filling in place.
Our goal is to help you through your first appointment. We all know how scary it can be, so we are here to answer any questions or help alleviate any concerns you may have. We work hard to offer our patients (new and old) a welcoming and comfortable office. We know that you may be anxious about your visit, so we will do everything we can do to help.
Many patients lose teeth as they age. This can actually change the way your mouth looks and functions. It also can change the look of your face. Bridges are made with artificial teeth to help improve the shape and function of your mouth. After having a thorough examination with x-rays, we will be able to discuss your options so we can make the right choice for your mouth.
Besides giving you a better smile, dental implants can help with good dental health. Food, plaque, and bacteria build up easily when you have missing teeth. You may also have trouble cleaning the area, and many people end up developing cavities and other dental problems. Dental implants can also make it easier to eat and speak.

I have always been quite fearful of going to the dentist. I went to this office based on their reviews. From the moment I walked into the office I was at complete ease. The office staff are professional and kind. The Dentist and Hygienist are the best I have been to. My entire family will only go to this office.

This place is totally focused on the well being of the patient. My family and I went to a different dentist for our annual check-up. They told my daughter that she would need two root canals, even though she had not been experiencing any pain or discomfort. They told me that I had no cavities. Woot Woot (spoke too soon). I decided to get a second opinion and am so thankful that I did. Northwest Dental Arts advised that one tooth only needed a filling. The second they wanted to try and salvage the tooth before moving forward with a root canal. They were able to take care of it with a filling as

I don’t understand why but I had to wait an hour past my appointment time and no dentist. They said they would see me for certain things (I don’t want to share personal details) but then then decided not to. I took unpaid time off work and ended up leaving because they were so unprofessional. Last time I saw them the receptionist forgot I was there, so this is how they operate I guess. It was a waste of time and a loss of pay.

If you are looking for a Dentist look no further and call this office. The dentists and the assistants are all so nice here, especially when they are working on your teeth. The new Dentist (I forgot her name) was amazing today and I would highly recommend this office to anyone who is looking for a great dentistry.

I put off going to the Dentist for so long I thought my cleaning would take forever. I am SO glad I found Northwest Dental Arts on Yelp.
Friendly and efficient staff, even as a new patient I was seen promptly and my hygienist was wonderful. I am now a satisfied, established patient here and am actually looking forward to my next visit and exam :)

Fast and friendly and painless. My opinion of dentists prior to coming to Northwest dental arts had always been very negative. most my life that I have been to a dentist I was always in pain when the dentist would work on my mouth. Not here! The dentist is very gentle and makes sure you are not in any pain while work is done. I found myself almost falling asleep I was that comfortable! Would recommend to anyone with bad experiences in past. This place is great.

I have been a patient at Northwest Dental Arts for around 12 years. Immediately after meeting Dr. Chad Nguyen I swore and still do that if...
for any reason Dr. Nguyen moved out of state I would fly wherever I needed to for his services! He completely restored my faith in seeing the dentist. However, the reason for this post today is to shout out to the best front office gal that I have ever met. That would be Erica. She goes the extra mile every single visit and has worked so hard for my family.
The entire staff at northwest dental is always professional, always caring,
and just do a great

I am very upset (i burst into tears. How's that for very upset) with my visit today (1/25). I was supposed to get my teeth cleaned but all i did was waiting around. And no one told me anything. Pls tell patients if you are running behind.
Xray took me half hour. During Xray, i x even know what is going on. I had the thing shoved to my mouth in and out for half hour. I had my Xray done at my dentist in another state, it didn't take half hour. I was gagging already. No communications at all.
Appointment was at 2pm. At 315pm there was still no sight of the dentist or tech to clean my teeth

Made an appointment at the beginning of the week for that coming thursday. Confirmed it with the scheduler that I had the correct date and time.
Show up 30 mins early (bc i am a new patient), they say their office is closed and they have no dentist on site. That i must have the wrong office. They sent me to another office down several doors down. I didnt have an appt with that office. I went back to them and told them I called them and was told I had an appt today. They looked at the schedule and had put me on for 3 weeks later......
Definitely wont be trying to get an appt at this office again

" BEST OF THE BEST "
Wife and I have been coming to Northwest Dental Arts for 12 years now. Dr. Nguyen is an exceptional dentist to say the least. Most recent visit I had an issue with a rear molar that was hurting and loose. I was petrified thinking I probably would have to have the tooth removed. I arrived at 2:00 PM (which my girl Erica worked me in last minute) at 2:05 PM Josie brought me in and took a couple of X-rays. At 2:08 Dr. Nguyen examined my bad tooth that he had tried to save for a long time and said " Steve I think it's time to remove your molar. WHAT!!!!! My

Had such an amazing experience here. I am so picky when it comes to who I go to for my dentist and since I am not originally from here, it's hard to figure out where to go. I tried another dentist in town and the experience was far from personable. I felt as if I was in a factory and I was just a set of teeth and not a person.
I found this place on yelp and I must say I definitely will be returning. The office was clean, comfortable, and good music was playing when I walked in! The front desk staff was very friendly and actually took the opportunity to explain my insurance benefits to me
