One suggestion is that they should give an estimate of everything before the treatment. For me, I didn't know they are now out of network with delta dental PPO insurance. They never told me anything about this before the treatment (they know my insurance). And then after a regular checkup with regular cleaning, they charge me 369 dollars. .

. This is also the only dental place I know that wouldn't give an estimate unless you ask them to. For the treatment itself, I have no comparison so I'll leave this to the future.

We LOVE Dr. Chen and Associates and refer them to everyone we know. The office is always on time and organized. The cleaning are thorough, but respectful of comfort. Proactive care without pushing an upsell. 12 out of 10!!!

I had tooth cleaning and wisdom teeth removal here. Dr. Chen and the team did a great job, and I’ve never had such a painless experience before. The atmosphere and the great care offered by the team made me feel much less scared of the process. The prices are also very reasonable.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Chen for quite some time, and I can honestly say he is hands down the best dentist I’ve ever had. From the moment you step into the office, you're greeted by a friendly and welcoming team that makes you feel comfortable right away. The office is always clean, modern, and well-equipped, making every visit a pleasant experience. Dr.

Chen is incredibly skilled, thorough, and truly cares about the well-being of his patients. He takes the time to explain procedures and answer any questions you might have, which instantly puts you at ease. His gentle touch makes even the most complex treatments feel painless, and I never feel rushed during my appointments. I’ve had everything from routine cleanings to fillings, and every experience has been top-notch. What I appreciate most is the personalized care I receive—Dr.

Chen always goes above and beyond to ensure my dental health is in great shape. It’s clear that they keep up with the latest advancements in dentistry and always recommend the best options for my needs. If you’re looking for a dentist who is not only professional and knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about your comfort and long-term health, I highly recommend Dr. Chen. I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received!
