Amazing, compassionate dentist. My mother, who is a senior with mobility issues, had a problem after hours. Dr. Chung helped her and addressed the problem very quickly. He was so kind about everything. I cannot recommend Dr. Chung highly enough. Thank you Dr. Chung! read more

Routine cleaning gone wrong: 2/5 stars because the dentist did a pretty good job fixing a chipped tooth the first time I went in, but only 2/5 stars because I mostly go there for routine cleanings which kept getting worse and worse until I literally had to walk out half way through during my last cleaning. The hygienest didn't like when I asked her to skip the chit chat as she tends to talk my ear off and her whiplash to my request was very unpleasant. She was going off on a rant for ten minutes about random things before I had to cut her short and asked to just focus on the cleaning. She then became careless, apathetic, and mechanical while rushing to complete the job. Her metal toothpick abruptly punctured a gap between my teeth below the gum line prying them apart and separating the gap between my teeth even more which caused me a lot of pain. I immediately stood up and walked out. I was left with a major tooth ace, gum pain and a severe migraine for the rest of the day. In fact its been 12 hours and half my face is still throbbing in pain. I am left wondering if this what at all intentional? read more

Alvin Chung is the best! If you want quality dental work, I highly recommend him. He's always so nice, and I really love all of the staff here, they're all so sweet and are so good with me! The office is very nice and very clean! I love that they have zoom whitening, just did it, and they're so meticulous on protecting your gums, so I really appreciated that! I'm really happy with my results :) Can't wait to do the Invisalign to really perfect my smile! read more

Very friendly staff. Much friendlier than at my last dentist. They were able to accommodate my schedule with no hassle. He's worked on tons of famous people and his office is scattered with their signed photographs thanking him. Lots of impressive smiles! The office is very clean & contemporary. He also has this huge tooth light (look under photos) that is lit white, unless he puts in a red bulb and then it's toothache. Priceless. read more

Alvin H Chung, DDS - Giant tooth light! - General Dentistry Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I recently started "Loving Yelping", went to see Dr. Alvin; and couldn't believe he wasn't on YELP. His practice area includes, preventitive, cosmetic and Britesmile associated Dentistry. Dr. Alvin and staff have been taking care of my pearly whites for hmmm, 6 years plus. Beautiful office with easy validated parking in 3660 building on Waialae. From cleaning to other dental problems, see Dr. Alvin and staff, who are the best. We were talking about yelp and some different eating places, told him I couldn't find his yelp profile. Give Lisa a call to make an appointment try him out! Thanks Dr. Alvin!!! read more

Truth be told.....going to the dentist is not one of my favorite things to do mainly because I'm a big chicken. But Dr. Chung and his team are FANTASTIC and definitely make every visit as pleasant, smooth and comfortable as possible. Everyone on staff offers a high level of customer service from the moment you call Lisa to make an appointment and as you walk in the door for services, the team is on it!! Christy is my hygienist and the best! She's fast, thorough and super sweet. Dr. Chung is always very nice and genuinely cares for his clients. He patiently explains what's going on with your teeth and if needed, calms my nerves (again, cause I'm a big chicken). If you happen to need some work done, his office is equipped with TV and headsets so you can distract yourself and not panic (oops, that just might be me). And his team is very caring and aware, making sure you're comfortable and explaining every step along the way. His office has moved -- its off Waialae avenue, in a private, yet cool and trendy spot in Kaimuki. read more

When I moved back from college, I started seeing Alvin...that was in 2003. Cut to me still seeing him after 14 years. By far the best dentist I've had. Just incredibly personable, honest and just down right nice. He's revitalized a building in Kaimuki and built his new office in the back. It's super cool! Love the modern feel. read more

I am 100% fearful of dentists and/or having dental work done. Dr. Chung and staff are VERY understanding and patient with people like myself. I had dental cleaning which went alright but most times in the past I would freak out before my appointment but today I was a little nervous but fine. I think the comfort level I feel here is higher than previous offices I've visited. Allie did my cleaning today and she was kind, and understanding to my fears and concerns. She helped me get through today's cleaning with much patience and professionalism. Don't get me wrong, I will always be dentaphobic but I think at Dr. Chung's office I will be a little bit more at ease. They validate and parking is easy and convenient down below. The parking elevator takes you right onto your floor. So far it's been pleasant experiences for the two visits I've had. :) In fact, the previous Yelp reviews led me to come see Dr. A. Chung! Way to go YELP!!! read more

been going for years and will keep going, very thorough and always explains what is going to happen understanding when some of us have a built in fear of dentists his staff are so pleasant to work with, Lisa at front desk treats patients as if they were her personal friends and family while maintaining a professional relaionship read more

Little known fact, but upon moving here in 2006 in the middle of college and staying, I somehow managed to remain your typical New Yorker who doesn't get something checked until it's a problem. You could also say I'm terrible at adulting. I turned 29 last month and suddenly found a bleeding gum & pain. I then realized I hadn't seen a dentist in over 10 years. Whoopsie daisy! My coworker recommended this place to me. It's located on Waialae Avenue behind Kaimuki Superette & the ballet studio in a renovated area. You walk into a beautiful glass wall lobby where the friendly receptionist checks you in. She seems to be the only one and was who I spoke with on the phone. They were excellent about taking new patients. I filled out minimal paperwork and they escorted me in quickly. Kristy, one of the assistants, gave me a few different x-rays; I'm not sure if I just don't know the current machines but it was fast, easy and seemed to be the most up to date technology. My results showed up on a computer where she explained what was going on. Before we started my cleaning, she set me up with headphones and a flat screen that was above the chair so I could watch a Netflix show during the procedure. I felt so fancy! She did a great and quick job; Dr. Chung came in shortly after to look at my mouth and confirm her findings. I was impressed at the training of his staff and the trust within the team. He was friendly and explained in relatable terms what was coming up next for my mouth. I got my baggy of teeth brushing goods as they always give and I was on my way. Fast, friendly, professional, clean - this place is on point for a dentists office. I felt cared about and never once felt concerned or uncomfortable. It might be the fact that I've only been to kid friendly offices with games in the waiting room & treats when I leave but I was impressed with my entire experience here and highly recommend coming here. I'm not even scared to do my wisdom teeth! That's some pros. Just saying. read more

I went to Alvin Chung because a number of friends adored him. I am now 6 years after the work was done and I'm having to redux the dentistry he performed. He did not align my bite properly and this ultimately contributed to causing major problems I have today. He was also not up to speed on modern techniques or equipment I now realize, and I should never have experienced the level of pain I had during my dental visits with him. I would never recommend him and caution others. I am very upset not only at the poor level of work, but at the cost of having to redux his work based on multiple dentists' opinions. read more

I bit into a piece of hard candy and my 15-year old crown fell out. After some frantic calls, I reached the friendly staff at Dr. Chung's who was referred by a friend. They accommodated me within the hour. Alvin and his staff were great - put in a temporary fix and next week I'll get a new porcelain crown. I'm going back for more for sure. read more

Just the best. From the scheduling and the receptionist to the office parking and decor and most importantly the care and professionalism of the staff, every aspect is truly outstanding. The best cleaning I have ever had with the gentlest hygienist. Thank you so much Lisa and Dr. Al. read more

I've been a patient of Dr Chung for 18 years. He is such a wonderful Dr. Lisa always calls me to remind me of my upcoming cleaning. This is the spot to be at! Wonderful Dr professional staff who could ask for anything more? 18 years should be a clear indication of how great this place is! read more
