Dr. Shin’s the best! After getting braces when I was a child through another orthodontist I, of course, stopped using my retainer because 1- I wasn’t paying for it/didn’t understand how expensive it was and 2- I was a forgetful child. Fast forward almost 20 years and I finally had... read more

I came in for a cleaning. It didn't take long for the dental hygienist to sanitize her area and bring me in to get started. She was very pleasant and I was very relaxed in my seat. The cleaning was quick and thorough. No complaints!

Dr. Yamada is a very competent and personable dentist. He didn't need much time this month, thankfully! Our hygienist was also wonderful.
