All nice and helpful people. I have had good experiences here. I will say the only thing is I feel like I have a different primary dentist each time I go. All have been good though.

I had an excellent hygiene appointment today with Nina- without a doubt the best dental cleaning experience ever, and I have been to dental practices all over the country.The dim lighting in the room is immediately relaxing- and the music was also wonderful and adds to the calming atmosphere ! Nina made the cleaning experience itself actually pleasant , and who says that about a visit to the dentist?!! She deserves a raise 😁, good hygienists are hard to find and keep!!! Mahalo to the whole team, everyone is very pleasant and professional.

Have been a patient for about 20 yrs. The office staff is fantastic, offering great service to accommodate and help patients with their needs. Unfortunately, too many good dentist have come and gone. The good ones show and explain the problem with honesty and facts, and work with tenderness and care, being sensitive to the fears and the pain one experiences on a dentist's chair: and is not so quick to drill. A good dentist spends time with you, and since the offices has become sort of an assembly line-like structure, time is of the essence. Just because they are dentist does not mean they are gods. They can make mistakes that cannot be reversed. So be sure to educate yourself about your teeth and what can be done. See if there are alternatives that you can add to your protocol, and be sure to investigate that they are proven to work or to help. Dr. Stone is fantastic; treats you like he would his child. DO NOT USE ALMALGAM FILLINGS. IF POSSIBLE. USE COMPOSITES AT THE MINIMUM. I get my teeth cleaned every 3 months, and my hygienist is very gentle with her hands and does her work with pride. I miss the doctors that have gone, and hoping for more Dr. Stones to become part of the staff for the office. Be careful for the "ones" that are ready to drill or remove. Stop eating junk, and brush your teeth ... Aloha

Hawaii Family Dental recommended I use a water flosser, and four months later I had less buildup of tartar on my teeth so the cleaning took less time and I had less sensitivity. They are really looking out for me.

Friendly staffs. Waiting was not long. I was well informed about the procedures being done that day and I appreciate the follow up with where Dr Le left off with me. Dr made suggestions without making me feel pressured. πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸŒΊ

Super clean office, great check in process with cost given to you before the visit so you know what to expect. Very friendly and efficient staff and amazing dentists! Dr Tapua is always friendly, gentle with a great bedside manner. And the hygienist always has me laughing and I can honestly say makes it fun having your teeth cleaned.

Got my tooth extracted. Left the dentist office like a champ with instructions of post-care. Dr Gutierrez was very friendly and informed me of every step he will take. I psyched myself for nothing. Removal was fast and easy.

10/10 experience. They always let us know what procedure will be done ahead of time and the cost of it so there are no surprise bills awaiting. The staff is wonderful, wait time is short and Dr. Peter Lee and his assistant during the procedure were fast, effective but most of all wonderfully patient with my child. They made her feel comfortable and talked us through on what to do as well as after care.Best place to go to for kids first experiences.
