I've been going to Dr Fong since 2009 and I will tell you (as I have high standards for all of my well being Drs), Dr Fong IS THE BAR. Why do I say this: 1. He always has the most updated medical equipment on the market and is intentional about having the best for his patients 2. His and his staff's work has always been top quality for me and I've never had issues 3. He won't push you to do something that isn't needed and he will suggest when it is necessary for your well being 4. He is the NICEST most friendly man! 5. Setting appointments is easy. He does get booked up in advance but they always will work with you to find a time that works and will message you if they find a better time that suits you - proactive Dr! 6. His connections to other experts - he has a top notch network of other Drs who are at his same level. I had my gums graphed and it was A+ work 7. Did I mention he's the nicest guy? ;) 8. He TRULY cares about his patients. Authentic, connected and with high integrity. His new office is WOOOOOWWWWWWW! I'm so grateful I found him 14 years ago.

You'll get a brand new Nimbus toothbrush with every visit.

Dr. Fong and the two dental hygienists, Jennifer and Sheema, are the best I've worked with. I am so happy I found Dr. Fong and his team! We have been going to Advanced Dentistry for about 3 years now. Dr. Fong has state of the art equipment right on the premises. Dr. Fong is personable and very caring. I do not feel like I'm being upsold when I'm there and my teeth have never been better. In the past, at other dentist offices, the exams were mostly too rough, or too soft. Sheema has the perfect amount of pressure during cleanings that doesn't make me want to avoid coming back. When my mom needed new dentures, Dr. Fong was able to help her. He was gentle and made sure that she was super happy with the fit. Did I mention that the place is so awesome that my kids also love seeing Dr. Fong and also Sheema? My son has been seeing Dr. Fong since he was about 10 and my daughter since she was 13.

Very cozy & comfy waiting room

I am new to the Bay Area, having just moved here from San Diego. I LOVED my dentist in San Diego…read moreand was not looking forward to the process of finding a new one. Unfortunately, I had to fast track the process due to a cracked filling. I did a bit of a google and Yelp search, crossing my fingers the whole time. I liked what I was reading about Dr. Yaley's practice and decided to take a chance. I emailed the office explaining my predicament, and received a response in short order from Sonia. She said they had two openings in the coming days and asked which would work better for me. I chose one and sent Sonia my insurance information. When I arrived for my appointment, Sonia had a big smile and all of the paperwork ready. In a matter of minutes, Mary (the hygienist) came out with her own great big smile and brought me back to the room. After getting all settled, Dr. Yaley came in and spoke to me for a few minutes to get acquainted and caught up on my dilemma. Dr. Yaley walked me through my options. Once we agreed on the course of action, Dr. Yaley took incredible care of me during the process - taking all necessary steps to minimize any discomfort - and got me all fixed up and feeling better. Dr. Yaley and her staff are AWESOME! As much as I liked my previous dentist, I was even happier with this team. If patient care and a friendly staff matter to you, don't make the mistake of trying anywhere else. This is the place to go.

Friendly team that truest care about patient health and comfort. I'm nervous about dental work they…read moremade it easy

Review Update: regarding their prices!…read more I was reached out to by Adrienne who notified me that they had charged me thinking my insurance doesn't cover the full amount but turned out my insurance did cover a portion of the cost therefor they refunded me $164 and mailed the check to my home. It was nice of them to do that, and very ethical. I wouldn't have known. Thanks Adrienne and the team!

Dr. Arora is kind and empathetic. I never felt rushed or dismissed, and I want to say that up front…read morebecause it matters. Unfortunately, the quality of the dental work did not match the care I received. I had three root canals and crowns with him. Over the past couple of years, I have had ongoing problems with them. Two crowns on my lower right side fell off. One came out while I was still his patient, and his team graciously replaced it. After that, it came out two more times, at random moments while I was on business trips, which caused me pain and was very disruptive. I was later told that the issue wasn't the crown itself. Too much of the tooth had been removed, so the crown could no longer bond properly. That led to crown lengthening surgery, which I recently had to go through. I was also told there was a remaining infection at one of the root canal sites, which meant several rounds of antibiotics. Now I have to pay out of pocket to have crown lengthening and teeth crowned again. Reading the other reviews here, my experience echoes what many others have described. I genuinely liked his team, but after years of repeat problems, cost, and procedures, I can't recommend him for restorative work like root canals and crowns.

Dr. Jay takes care of me and my 2 children. He is AMAZING - caring, explains what is going on,…read moredoes not do unnecessary work. I HIGHLY recommend him and his staff. They use sterile technique and everything is clean. Professional, excellent technique, and caring doctor!!! He is sooo great with kids!!! My kids have fun and always look forward to seeing him!

Dr Lucy Hua: I can NOT recommend…read more I did significant research and she came to the top of the list; but I went to see her. In her office, she had another dentist see me. They took a large number of x-rays. When they found out that I had another insurance policy as well, she decided to take even more x-rays. The work plan clearly would finance a new car. Couldn't believe the amount of decay that was discovered by this dentist and needed work. This reminded me of over 40+ years ago, my now wife, went to a dentist for an emergency and that dentist agreed to treat her, if she would come back for needed polishing of her amalgams. My old dentist didn't see these issues. I went to a new dentist a year later, who took new x-rays. This dentist, also a woman, is not on my dental plan; but is highly recommended. I had one cracked filling that needed to be repaired. Most of this was not covered by insurance; but turns out this was MUCH less money and much less impact to my mouth. Given the research I had done and the recommendations I had received, you can tell that I'm EXTREMELY disappointed in Lucy Hua's office. My teeth and mouth are in much better shape in not going to her practice!

She was well-mannered, professional, thoughtful and patient, answering all of my nervous questions and just did everything right. Compliments to Susy F the Treatment Coordinator again as well, for her professionalism, being on top of everything and kindness and patience in continuing to answer my remaining questions since I still have 2 smaller procedures left to do. Everyone at Dr. Field's office exemplifies Concierge Dentristry. Think of regular commercial airlines as being the usual dentist's office - and Dr. Field's office being the latest Gulf Stream G700 private long range jet. And Dr. Field is THE BEST. What he did with my mouth is nothing short of a total transformation, health wise for my mouth , bite wise and appearance wise. My new smile (26 teeth - 12 uppers and 14 lowers) is getting praises from everyone for looking so natural and pretty! Which of course makes me smile all the time now:)
