I'm so late to leave this review, but I must share the experience my son and I had with Dr. Dang and his awesome staff. My son was terrified of having work done on his tooth. The anxiety he was experiencing was very overwhelming for him. However, the patience and time that was taken by Dr. Dang and his very supportive and nurturing staff, to walk him through each step, really helped him to relax enough to get his broken front tooth fixed. And the work on his tooth is amazing. It looks like his tooth was never broken. If you're looking for a dentist to take your kiddos to, this is the one!! Erica M. read more

Clean, nice people, comfortable place. Had teeth whitening and they were very professional.

Very rough care. If you have medical he will do his job to the very very minimum and treat you like you are less than. Seems like his quality of care depends on whether you are a cash patient or a medical covered patient. Very bad bedside manner and stuck up attitude. Will not recommend. read more

This review is long overdue! My family has been going to Bright Dental and seeing Dr. Dang for close to 13 years now, and I can confidently say he's one of the best in the business. We first met Dr. Dang when my daughter needed braces. I had initially been quoted over $5,000 elsewhere and was told she'd likely need two full sets, one corrective and one cosmetic. That price and explanation didn't sit right with me, so I decided to get a second opinion. A close friend recommended Dr. Dang, describing him as ethical, fair, and never the type to upsell or gouge you. She was 100% right. From the first call, the experience was seamless. His staff was friendly, professional, and made it easy to book an appointment. During our consultation, Dr. Dang explained everything clearly: yes, there was a chance my daughter might need two sets of braces, but he wanted to see how her teeth responded to the first before making that call. That honesty and transparency stuck with me. At the time, my daughter was a little terror in the chair nervous, crying, and definitely testing his patience. But Dr. Dang was calm, gentle, and incredibly patient. He talked her through every step, got her comfortable, and managed to complete her treatment successfully. Fast forward, she's now 21, and her smile is beautiful! Over the years, my husband, son, and I have all become loyal patients. My son is almost 12, and this is the only dentist he's ever known. I've personally had situations where other dentists told me I'd need $8,000 in work for supposed gum disease, but Dr. Dang gave me an honest evaluation, treated what was actually necessary, and got my mouth back to full health without unnecessary procedures or inflated costs. Dr. Dang's integrity, knowledge, and genuine care for his patients are unmatched. He doesn't perform unnecessary work just to bill insurance. He does what's needed, and he does it right. His professionalism and ethics are exactly why my family will continue seeing him until the day he retires. If you're looking for a dentist who's ethical, experienced, and treats every patient like family, look no further than Dr. Dang, Emily and the Bright Dental team. read more

I've been coming to Brite Dental for about 4-5 years and have had several procedures done here. Their service has always been outstanding. Emily is wonderful with scheduling and consistently follows up to make sure I never miss an appointment. The nurses are kind, attentive, and professional, and Dr. Dang is exceptionally honest, he always explains clearly which treatments are necessary and which are not, something I truly value. Overall, Brite Dental has an excellent team that makes every visit a positive experience. Highly recommend! Best, Dan read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Dang recently. I had some cosmetic works done on my front teeth and they look very natural. Thank you to Dr. Dang for his thoroughness and attention to details and all the staffs at Brite Dental. read more

I'm don't normally write a review but because this dental place has done an amazing job on my teeth and my kids teeth tooI had a couple of cavities and Dr. Dang explains to me what is recommended and need to be done. It was up to me if I wanted done or not. I didn't fell the pressure like other dental places. I am afraid of needle and he did an amazing job I didn't feel a thing. This place is the best place that I have been to then my previous dental place. The staff are all wonderful. I am so happy. They go above and beyond for their service. Thank you Dr. Dang for all your work read more

I've been going to Dr David Dang DDS for 8 years and I couldn't be happier with the care I've received. His entire team is friendly, professional, and always makes me feel comfortable during every visit. Dr David Dang DDS takes the time to explain each step of the treatment, ensuring I fully understand my options and feel at ease. The office is always clean, well-organized, and runs on schedule, which I really appreciate. Whether it's a routine cleaning or a more involved procedure, I've always felt I'm in good hands. Highly RECOMMENDED. Thank you Dr David Dang read more

My experience was pleasant as a dentist visit can get. The staff was friendly, office clean and relaxing. Found my new dentist

HORRIBLE ATTITUDE from Dr. Dang!! I came here with a client that has special needs and Dr. Dang was rude and didn't have patience explaining what was going on. When I requested him to be nicer and explain slowly he started arguing and ranting about him treating her like a normal person because he didn't know she was "different". What kind of professional says this stuff and argues with his clients? There is no explanation to excuse his behavior and he discriminated and disrespected someone and it's unfair for him to say he was the "offended" one. Don't come here, he is absolutely unprofessional and a rude person. read more

Today (7/17/2025) I had an appointment and Dr. David Tang was very rude the whole appointment. He had no patience while explaining an issue that I didn't understand very well and he was offended when my DSP asked him to talk to me in a nicer tone and slower due to my learning disability. He referred to me as "different" and that he was offended because we asked him to be professional and nice to us. He even left the too when my DSP was asking me if I wanted to stayed after being treated this way. That's not an okay behavior for a "professional". Very bad experience, don't come here! read more

Me and my family have been attending Brite dental for 11yrs. The service that Doctor Dang and his staff provide is excellent. He is always honest and very respectful when it comes to servicing your dental needs. My entire family goes to Brite dental for routine checkups and cleanings every 6 months. Dr Dang has put braces on myself and my children. He has performed tooth extractions and root canals on myself as well and he made me feel comfortable and welcome every time. He has pretty much watch my kids grow up from babies to teenagers. I will always support Dr Dang and Brite dental until he retires. If you are looking for a place to have your dental work done please stop by Brite dental. They are amazing. Thank you Dr Dang and the entire Brite dental team. read more

Dr Dang is awesome. So is his front desk staff and dental assistants. He's personable but strict. He knows his stuff and runs a tight ship. He listens but is also authoritative. He doesn't rush his patients or the process. To date, I have not had one bad experience going to that office. I have more work to be done and am excited about the outcome and comfortable having Dr Dang and his team complete the work. I'd recommend him to anyone. read more

I've chosen to pick Dr. David Dang as my one and only dentist for many years now and will continue to go to him until he retires. He is transparent and honest while giving you his best advice when it comes to any type of dental care that fits your needs. He always spends the time to explain everything from start to finish and will let you know which procedures work best for you depending on your conditions. He is a wealth of knowledge and does not pressure you into doing anything you wouldn't want to do. His entire staff is honest, friendly, and professional. They always make you feel right at home and comfortable. Dr. Dang and his staff cares about each and every patient that walks through the office doors while making sure that they provide the best, utmost care. Dr. Dang is a one stop shop and look no further. He does everything from routine check ups, teeth cleaning, to major constructive and cosmetic surgeries. He does it all!!! read more

Dr. Dang did not listen to his patient which resulted in severe pain and 3 dead teeth in my situation. I came to Dr. Dang for dental crowns back in June 2022. I needed 12 separate crowns and the other two dentists I consulted both requested separate visits for top and bottom teeth. Dr. Dang promised he could have them done in one visit due to his superior technique. I was very happy with the outcome. All the crowns looked natural and I was able to smile confidently again. However, I kept having severe teeth sensitivity even 3 months after the procedure with no signs of improvement. I called in to discuss this issue and Dr. Dang reassured me it's a healing process. The problem got worse. I started to have intermittent pain in the crown teeth late September and I went in about two weeks after (09/26/22) the pain started. Dr. Dang took some x-rays and reassured me again my teeth were normal even though I stressed I have severe pain. Dr. Dang prescribed 800mg Ibuprofen three times a day for pain control and said I do not need to come back for a follow up, instead just call one week later to update. The ibuprofen did not help and the pain got worse to a point I could not sleep or even sit at all. I would rate it 10/10 pain. It was after business hours last Friday so I could not reach Dr. Dang. Another dentist was kind enough to accommodate me Saturday morning (10/01/22) and I had 3 urgent root canals done on the crown teeth. Now both the pain and sensitivity are mostly gone. When I called Dr. Dang to follow up this morning (10/03/22), he responded to the situation: 1) he wish I would wait longer before having the root canal - the pain was excruciating, I would not want to be in that pain for one second longer 2) there's nothing showing on the X-ray when I visited him on Monday so he did not think anything was wrong - I understand x-ray is important in helping with the diagnosis. However, listen to the patient's symptoms and complain are more important. If the symptoms and imaging do not add up then there's a need to explore further to find the root cause. - the other dentist I visited on Saturday was able to identify the teeth in pain from x-ray before I pointed them out - the root canals revealed no pus or blood which indicated long term infections Also coincidentally all the teeth with infections that ended up needing root canals are newly done crown teeth. The other dentist mentioned it might be due to dr shaved too much teeth during the crown fitting that damaged the nerves. I am unsure if the dying nerves are caused by the inproper crown fitting technique, but I am mostly unsatisfied with the way Dr. Dang treated his patient when conditions did not go as expected. The neglect in identifying the root cause of the pain and sensitivity has left me in such discomfort that I would not want anyone else to go through. Due to the above reasons, I am giving a 2-star for my ratings of Brite Dental and would not recommend this place. read more

on 01.22.2024 I took my grandson to the dentist and my grandson is 5 years old I had a bad experience at this office the doctor was very upset and rude correcting his dental assistant in front of us (patients) he was very rude towards my grandson telling him not to move when my grandson wasn't moving. and for the second time he raised his voice at Jackie his assistant to pay attention I don't want to do your job. You don't treat your employees like that made me feel very uncomfortably. I felt very bad the way he treats his dental assistants!!! Very bad experience... read more

Dr Dang is the BEST!! He's very thorough, efficient, and doesn't cut corners. Growing up my Father was my dentist until he passed away a few years ago. It was hard/sad going to another dentist until I found Dr Dang I feel like I am in great hands, and he's going to do a great job. He has a couple of girls that works in back with him and they are absolute sweethearts that care about the patients also. and of course there's Emily that works the front desk. She is nice and very helpful. I would 100% recommend Dr Dang to my family and friends! Thank You Dr Dang & staff! Sincerely, Karen Ludwig read more

I gained my confidence back and Dr. Dang and his team made it happen. I fell at work and fractured multiple teeth. I was mortified. Dr. Dang has taken care of my family of 5 for over 10 years and he took me right in and made everything better. I was pretty specific on what I wanted with replacing my smile, down to showing him a picture of my ideal smile. He specially designed it for me and delivered. I am beyond satisfied and couldn't recommend Brite Dental more. read more

THE WORST DENTIST AND STAFF I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. I never had any real pain or issues with my teeth until meeting Dang DDS. I'm a new patient of his and only been to his office twice and I plan to never return in fear of him doing more damage to my mouth. My first impression of his office environment is that it's decently clean but a little outdated. He uses a monitor that is mounted on the ceiling which is probably not in the best position- perhaps the measurement is off because he keeps asking me to scoot up with my head hanging off the the headrest to look at a screen. I dont feel safe sitting in the chair. Meanwhile his staff hovers and huddles in the hallway looking unprofessional and not like they want to be there, seems as if this is all their first time ever working at a dental office. Moving on to my first checkup and cleaning. The X-ray process took awhile- his staff came in got me setup then disappeared for 15 mins without saying anything to me. Then eventually came back to finish. Once we got through xrays I meet Dr. Dang and he explains I have a few cavities and recommend I get fillings and do a deep cleaning on my next visit. His staff finishes the cleaning, they were not very thorough with flossing seemed like this was her first time doing this. A month later I return to finish the work thats needed. He spends no-time explaining the process. He starts off by numbing my mouth. He did not explain the numbing agent was going to increase my heartrate until after I'm already having an anxiety attack- he tells me to relax... He proceeds to drill and it's scary because I dont know whats actually going on and he keeps telling me to scoot up and open my mouth which I can't t feel or have control over. After we get through the drilling/filing it's time to check my bite and when i tell him its off he doesnt listen to me- he said i got it I got it - hushing me up instead of actually hearing me. He tries fixing it but my bite is still off and he tells me to come back if there's any pain... post deep cleaning my mouth is still very numb I cannot drink or hold anything in my mouth. his assistant tells me to use mouthwash and leaves. 10 mins later my mouth is still numb and she sees me still there and tells me i can go. I explain im waiting to rinse my mouth out but I cant use the mouthwash because i will choke she tells me im not supposed to drink it. OBVIOUSLY I KNOW THIS I HAVE NO CONTROL OF ANY MUSCLE IN MY MOUTH. I leave without rinsing because i feel like im being rushed and the customer service is horrible. once i leave an hour later i feel fine, actually a few weeks have passed and I felt ok until recently. I can not chew on my rightside and even when im not chewing Theres an aching pain. IM NOT RETURING TO DR. DANG IN FEAR OF MORE DAMAGE. Overall the customer service is awful, he doesnt listen, and his assistants are incompetent. I do not trust him. Stay away. read more

The response from Brite Dental is very disappointing. However, it's not at all surprising. I'm saddened. As a customer, I opened my heart and shared how I've been made to feel at their office and the response is a "apology" and the claim I've got "hate in my heart." Wow.... While I understand the desire to protect your business, this is a weak attempt to deflect from my point, which is that you are perhaps out of touch with the people you serve. And even worse, you are seemingly AWARE of it and chosen to place fault on the customers instead. How daunting! The fact that this dentist is so oblivious to his own energy when entering a patient's room is alarming. Dental work is expensive, and as a paying customer, we all deserve quality care. Potential customers, if you take a look at my other reviews, you'll see my posts are never hurtful, always constructive and ALWAYS honest. As a school teacher, I understand the significance a "grade" has on a business, which is why I did not and do not score unfairly. To Brite Dental, the next time you attempt to follow up on a review in an attempt to make it right with a disappointed customer, you should begin with offering a sincere apology - one that doesn't transition into you falsely calling them a "hater". To potential customers, as I stated in my initial post, go where you are celebrated, not just tolerated by someone because you're giving them your money, you deserve BETTER. Good luck and happy holidays to all. read more

The best dentist and dental office I've been to in a very long time. Most fear the dentist, but this office is patient and caring. During my cleaning, I was having pain, and the hygienist took their time. The office is ALWAYS clean and never crowded. The dentist himself is amazing and doesn't try to sell you on anything!!! read more

Dr Dang Dr Dang Dr Dang. First things first clean environment easy parking cool looking place. Dr Dang is exactly what he says, precise. I was sitting there grabbing the xray mouth piece hoping we would finally get the shot he wanted. His dental assistant wasn't able to get the shot he wanted so what did he do. Make her do it again. While I know how to some people it could seem like a toxic environment those girls are happy. They smiled joked and did their job. I let them know that after working with him, they could work anywhere else effectively. I was grateful how he calmed me down and listened when I told him I was in pain. He told me not to wiggle and guess what, I did!!! So he firmly told me not to do it again. I tried my hardest but it happened a few more times and he firmly told me again. Nothing wrong with taking someone's profession seriously. I had an amazing experience and would 100 percent come back to Sergent Dr Dang lol keep up the good work. read more

My experience was nothing short of being treated with little to no respect and or compassion, as this is my 2nd review because Dr Dang is having them removed due to his lack of accountability! I simply went to his office in hopes to get a root canel treatment but left feeling disappointed and dismissed! He didn't listen to any concerns that I had! He was upset because I needed further explanation! He was rude and combative! His lack of empathy for patients with serious stuff going on is absolutely disconcerting! He legit chose to stand in front of his staff and argue with me all because I was disappointed in the lack of professionalism in that office!! Please read all other negative reviews as they are all about he same thing NOT LISTENING to the patients whether we have insurance or not You Wouldn't have a career without us!! He is arrogant and unprofessional so save yourself some time and patience!!! read more

Great dental experience. Even though we all don't look forward going to the dentist I am happy I found this place close to home. The office is clean and stylish. All the girls at the front desk and the hygienist are awesome and make you feel welcome. The dentist was very informative and professional. It was easy to make an appointment. I loved my cleaning and left with a bright smile. Recommend! read more

Doctor had a bad attitude and treated me very aggressively..when working on my mouth he was rough and careless..

Dr Dang is an awesome dentist!!!! I went to him to get a root canal and was definitely anticipating pain. I was a lil nervous...but he reassured me I wouldn't feel a thing...and I'm thinkn sure, that's what they all say...I kid you not. I truly didn't feel anything literally No Pain...I was really waiting on it for sure once he started drilling...again nothin at all No Pain...I'm so happy I hv found him a dentist that really tells you the Truth.... No Pain No Game...he is definitely #1 in my book...I'm telling you guys he is the Painless Dr...DR DANG! WITH ALL THE NEW TECHIE GADGETS. All of you guys who have been putting off Root Canals Crowns, Fillings, Implants and Teeth that needs to be Pulled Out you've got to Run not Walk to this Dentist he would actually hv you thinkn your in your living room relaxing on your recliner because it doesn't feel like your actually lying in a Dentist chair...it's unbelievable... You Guys Must Run Now Not Walk He's definitely A Keeper...Dr Dang, you hv made me one Happy Woman...thank you soooooooo mucho...Glenda read more

Brite Dental is by far the best dentist I have been to. I have been going to Dr. Dang for years since I was recommended to him from a friend. They have a straight forward, no nonsense, and on your terms style of practice that makes you comfortable and at ease. And most importantly, he knows what he is doing and he is VERY good at it. They break down everything that's going on and answer every question with sincerity. They don't make you feel bad for what's going on in your mouth, but tell you as it is without sugar coating. I've had some really bad work done in the past and it is costing me a pretty penny to reverse that work. I trust the transparency in Dr. Dang's work and his professional manner. read more

Dr. Dang is a true professional, explains everything ahead of time, very experienced expert in dentistry and not just your regular dentist. I drive from San Diego for the quality service he provides. read more

What can I say about Brite Dental My first experience with Brite Dental was excellent. The staff was kind and helpful! My second visit with Brite Dental was like walking into a deserted office.The staff energy was off, they look so depleted. The dentist was a so unfriendly, which made me uncomfortable. He got upset at the staff about not cleaning a hand held mirror. So uncalled for. So I think I'll be looking for a new dentist in the near future. read more

Today I went to Brite Dental for a Emergency appointment. I was so nervous, but once I got to the door, due to COVID-19, they have to open the door to let you in and they greet you with a Smile. they were so Pleasant. The office is very clean, the is Dentist nice, he explains everything that's going on, that's needed and the main thing is he let's you make your own decision on what you need! Well, I needed to have a root canal treated tooth pulled that also has a crown. So, the dentist gave me a shot, which was painless! Then he pulled the tooth, OMG, it did not hurt at all! And it was over in Minutes! So, If you are looking for a good dentist and a clean and pleasant office, I recommend Brite Dental! You will be very Pleased! read more

Dr. Dang is very professional and great at what he does. My initial visit to his office was for my 7year old son, who fell and broke his front tooth. My son has always been very terrified of dental offices. Dr. Dang and his staff were very patient with my son, who was kicking and screaming. He took his time to sit there and explain to my son the steps that he would be taking to repair his tooth. He went into his office and gave my 7 year old time to process the conversation and then came back to check on him and got the work started. The procedure took a few visits, as he ended up needing a root canal (at such a young age)! But Dr. Dang gained my son's trust and when he had to go back for the 2nd visit, he was very calm and confident that he could trust Dr. Dang. Since then, my whole family now goes to Dr. Dang. Aside from the professionalism, the office is very clean and the staff are all very kind and helpful! I will definitely recommend this place to my family and friends. read more

New customer, came from Bright now dental... and wow what a difference.. from the front desk to the drs. It was easy making an app the staff is so nice. Melissa was the one that cleaned my teeth, she was very gentle she even gave me a free tooth brush with paste. I recommend this place! read more

He did 2 root canals and 3 reroot canals that my previous dentist messed up and did a sloppy work on and is working on re crowning it and with a bridge as we speak.. Yes he is a perfectionist and that's prolly the best part his staff are all very friendly and the facility is super clean. Totally recommend this place thank you! read more

This office is fast and friendly, very professional staff this office takes cash and all types of insurance.i will recommend this Dentist office to everyone read more

See all

Very clean office, Dr.Dang and the dental staff are amazing! I am scared of the dentist and I have avoided getting my wisdom tooth pulled for years and I was crying walking in the office today but the dentist and staff made me feel very comfortable. The best dentist I've ever been to! Thank you!!! read more

I thought I'd try Brite Dental bc it was close by. With much regret, its unfortunate Yelp doesn't allow ratings of negative stars. This place pushed me to take x-rays and charged more than my home town dds. When I realized how awful this place was (after one visit), I moved to my partner's dds. Brite Dental would not release MY x-rays to me or my new dds. It's digital! Just email, text, transfer the file to me!! It's my mouth and I paid for the damn x-rays. WTF are you going to do with them? read more

I wanted to take a minute and Thank Dr. Dang and all staff for an amazing experience. I'm not a fan of the dentist and needed a root canal on a bottom molar. After getting a 3rd opinion on this tooth situation and weighing out my options, Dr. Dang was confident the tooth could be saved with little or no pain and at a reasonable price. The tooth is absolutely gorgeous, perfect, Dr. Dang will not have it any other way, he's a perfectionist. If you want quality, affordable work, I highly recommend coming to see Dr.Dang & staff at Brite Dental. read more

Finally got my crown and doc and staff did an amazing job. Hands down best dentist I've been too in years and glad my bro referred me to him. He's also pretty funny and car fanatic. =) read more

My husband got a root canal done here and the process from start to finish was great. The staff is nice and provided good customer service.

Dr. Dang and his staff are exceptional. I have been to a lot of dentists over the years, but this office is high above the rest. The office itself is clean and decorated in a modern, classy look. The staffs greets you upon arrival are always helpful and never rude or make you feel uncomfortable. He is a great communicator. He'll ask you a few times if you have any questions or concerns about what is going on. He'll inform you about each step of what needs to be done. At my first visit a year ago, I remembered he showed me x-rays of my teeth and explained everything that was going on with them. This never happen before. It's my teeth! As for the services themselves, he always makes sure that you are comfortable and works efficiently to get you in and out in a safe and timely manner. I have had a few times where something doesn't feel quite right and they always get me in the same day. Honestly, if you are tired of looking for a great dentist, or if you are fearful because of past experiences, please, please, please give Dr. Dang and his team a try! You won't be disappointed. I can't say enough good things about him. Go there! Don't be afraid! BTW - In reside in Riverside and drive to Gardena for my examination. read more
