"Today I went to the dentist and Bluey was playing on the tv. I had to get fillings so they laid me in the burrito and I smelled grapes (nitrous oxide) lol. He did have to use the needle to make my mouth numb so it felt weird and tingly, but I didn’t cry. He was super fast, it didn’t hurt, and I got some toys when I was done" -My 6 yr old

My son Jovee needed some unforeseen work done at his check up appointment which Doctor Lee addressed promptly and treated us with grace and respect. I appreciate his expertise as well as his encouragement. Also, the entire staff treats us very well and with genuine kindness. They are always very supportive and friendly.

Adam, the man who cleaned my teeth is extremely cheerful, reassuring and positive for the whole visit. He made the deep cleaning , really easy and enjoyable. I am a senior and it is extremely difficult for me to walk the distance to the outside bathroom. I prefer to come to this facility to especially see Adam and would request that the owners put in an inside bathroom for seniors. Thank you.

Just here to say Adam needs a raise. He's the best hygienist I've ever had, mainland, O'ahu, anywhere! Professional, caring, and thorough. Everyone there is friendly and helpful, the only hard part is scheduling. If something gets cancelled or you need a filling it's gonna be another 6 months. But definitely can't fault anyone there for that they do a good job working around it.

I had an appointment today at Hawaii Family Dental at the Waiakea Villas. Adam (the hygienist ) has a very professional & friendly demeanor & was a blessing. Dr Young expertly and painlessly checked my teeth, filled 3 or more cavities, was quite attentive to any concerns I had & did an excellent job. I would recommend this practice to anyone!

The sweetest caring dentist assistant went way above her job duties, by assisting the front desk receptionist by asking info on referring me out to Oahu for A Root Canal that needed to be done by a specialist, that specialist only covered my insurance on the entire islands. I'm so grateful for her help, My insurance paid for most of my entire procedure. It's the little things in life that matters the most. She completely made my stress level at ease. She needs a reward recognition and a higher pay. She has the most compassion for her patients, I’m so Thankful for her expertise and her dedication as a dental assistant. I see her achieving her goals as the next Dentistry in the future.
