Dr. Sun is the best dentist we have ever come across. We referred multiple friends and they love his work. Their front office is as good as it can be.

I have been dentally cared by Dr. Richard Sun for about five years. Dr. Sun is very skillful in providing dental implantation and care. He listens to his patients carefully, discusses treatment options with patients, and follows up patients after major procedures. I had several implants with him and each one proceeded very smoothly without any complication.

I had been switching between dentists for the past few years until I was referred to Dr. Sun through a friend of mine. He is one of the best dentists I have met ever. He is very experienced and confident in his job at the same time he is very friendly and attentive.

never pushes you to spend money on something which is not necessary, he recommends what is best for you with different options. I am really happy with Dr. Sun and recommend him to whoever is looking for an experienced and nice dentist!

Man, he's good! I have been treated by many good dentists, but it is his personal integrity that blew my mind recently. I just starting seeing him, and he and I were advised by an endodonist that I needed another new bridge after his retreatment of a root canal. Dr. Sun would have received a considerable sum for this major restorative process. But after his evaluation, he told me that he saw no evidence that I needed a new bridge! Insurance would not have paid for it anyway because it was so new, so it would have been a serious financial responsibility for me.

He isn't in it to just make money, he really cares about his patients. He is indeed an excellent professional worthy of the top honors he's received, and a distinguished practitioner. But the most important thing I can say is that you can trust him. And his front-desk assistant, Lily, is so helpful amazing, too!
