This particular business is located uptown, on the top floor of the Pearlridge shopping center, the…read moreopposite end of Macy's. Parking lot is huge and I never have issues finding a spot. I switched over to this dental office about a year ago because of their ability to schedule exams and cleanings on the same day. In addition, for emergency cases, they can take you in pretty quick. Myself, my husband, and our oldest daughter all attend this office. Staff here is very friendly and outgoing. Doctors are great and have always able to assist us with different needs. I will say that most of my interactions are with Tina who sometimes is checking me in, or also there are to assist with any services that I have. Recently, I experienced a dental nightmare that put me in the ER twice in one week and ultimately I was sent to a specialist to get a root canal performed. After I got my root canal done in December the same tooth cracked before the new year started, and I went back to this office. When I got in touch with Tina about my cracked tooth, she was able to fit me in, and I was so worried that they were going to extract my tooth. This was the day that I met Dr. Chang! He assured me that he would be able to save my tooth, and that he did! His superpower is his kind heart and easy-going attitude. He communicated with me every step of the way about the process and what needed to be done. That day he added a temporary crown, and I did return a few weeks later for the permanent crown. I am truly thankful for his knowledge and skills. I love the customer care that I receive, the cleanliness of the office, and the speed of getting services done. I believe that Tina and Dr. Chang are true assets to the company just by being themselves. Patient care comes first for them and their only goal is to make sure we aren't in pain or uncomfortable. Their warm hearts make me smile when I see them, and I will continue to return and refer others because of the way they have helped me through my horrible dental season!

My experience with this dental office has been incredibly frustrating and time consuming. I tried…read moreto stick with them because the actual dental care was good. The dentist fixed a filling that I'd had done the year before. Both the dentists and dental hygienists were great. I tried to get retainers done here which resulted in repeatedly having to drive out there, I believe i had around 7 appointments there for this (possibly more). Apparently they'd switched companies and I was repeatedly given retainers that did not fit. Some of them which I wish I had photos to share were so poorly done it cut off half way through some of my teeth, others if I put it in on one side it would pop out on the other side. After repeating having them redone I requested a refund. The billing office refused to refund me until I brought it up with the dentist who was able to get me a refund. In oct they called me and said my insurance wouldn't pay for my dental care because there was a secondary insurance which I told them they need to take my health insurance down. They refused and told me to call which I did. I called my insurance who stated they would need to include my health insurance. I spent 30 minutes + on the phone having to facilitate this. When I did this person at the dental office I spoke to said they didnt have the address to send it to which I told them they could get online. They would not do this so while we were on the phone I Google searched and gave her the address and canceled my next appointment. In January I received a voicemail and invoice for all the dental care over the past year saying its still not paid for. I dont see any billing requests from them on my health insurance portal so no idea if they sent that or not. Highly recommend you go elsewhere to avoid wasting so much time and energy. Updates: I called my dental insurance on 1/9/26 and they said they couldn't pay yet as the dental office still had not filed with my primary insurance. I called the dental office to give them my primary insurance again. 1/28/26 - received voicemail stating I hadn't paid my bill 1/31/26 - pearl Ridge dental still has not filed with my primary insurance 2/22/26 - still no billing of my primary insurance and the dental office sent me mail with an upcoming appointment that I already cancelled

I had somewhat…read moreof a tooth emergency and when I called to schedule an appointment they were super kind, great communicators, and were able to schedule me in pretty quickly. I went for my first consultation today and let me tell you, they use a lot of newer high tech technology, they are extremely thorough with checking each tooth and explaining what's going on, they not only share with people verbally but also show you what they're looking at on the tv screen as well. The hygienist, Janet, was so so nice and gentle - I really loved getting to know her better. And Dr. Koga was so personable, knowledgeable, and made me feel heard which is super important to me. Because they are so thorough you do need to come in quite a few times but I will say that they'll help create a customized plan for you on how to best take care of your teeth and the maintenance that comes with it. Definitely would recommend!

Highly recommended switching to Biotene products to relieve dry mouth which I didn't know I had and has been a daily lifesaver. Seeing the same level of dental care that my son received, business hours, closer commute via home, and work prompted an urgency to switch dentist. My only regret was not switching earlier. One of my friends also switched dental care to this office after reading the first review regarding my son's visits. I didn't find out till my dentist informed me and thanked me for the referral. Later, she informed me too. I'm equally happy!

I'm a relatively new patient here. My former dentist for years C. Tamura passed away and I needed…read moreto find a new dentist. APCD was recommended to me. The front desk staff are very polite and dental hygenist are excellent. The dentist even worked me on for an emergency tooth fix after chipping a tooth. So I basically look forward to visiting the dentist here. I had a recent visit and everything went great until I got home. I had an appointment after working a 16 hour shift. I was very sleepy and headed home upon completion of my appointment. I'm at home getting into bed and I receive this call from this obviously angry poo person. I'm like can I help you. She went into this diatribe about how I left without paying. (My $12-20 copay) I explained I'm very tired and need sleep. I'll take care of it after some sleep. But no she wouldn't have that. It's early how can you be that angry this early in the am. I can't believe I'm saying this but I was waiting for her to say she was ready to send me to collections it was that bad. Apparently I was really bothered by it because I'm not able to sleep now and I've gotten home I decided to give the operation a call because this person definitely needs to not be communicating with patients because they have zero customer service skills. I've been in the medical field for 22 years and I've never talked to a patient like that ever. On my call I asked that somebody that was at the office front manager give me a call and they said that there is no front manager so maybe that's the problem. I did request if they could have somebody of some stature give me a call back so I could explain the situation because this person should not be around talking to or any form with patients. I'm hoping somebody is going to give me a call back otherwise I guess I'm going to have to leave a really good dentist and really good front office staff and find another dentist. Mainly recommendation if you're going to be dealing with patients try to do it with a little Aloha or at least print pretend to have some Aloha and want my business.

From the moment I called, the team treated me with empathy and zero judgment. At my visit, the front desk was warm and organized, the hygienist was gentle yet meticulous, and Dr. Kuioka was exceptional. He took time to listen, walked me through what he was seeing and why, offered options without any pressure, and checked in frequently to make sure I was comfortable. The technology is modern, the office feels calm, and the entire appointment was smoother and more comfortable than I imagined possible. I left with a clear plan, confidence to follow through, and genuine gratitude. If you have anxiety about dental care--or you've been avoiding it--do yourself a favor and book with Dr. Kuioka. Compassionate, professional, and truly patient-centered. Highly recommend.

BEST VENEERS EXPERIENCE…read more Dr. Keileen Fukada and Premier Dental Group helped me close a gap between my top front teeth. The experience was surprisingly comforting and I felt at ease working with Dr. Fukada and the premier dental team. During my first visit, I was very nervous and scared because my teeth were going to be shaved down a bit. However, I was comforted by their professionalism and expertise on the matter. I was also having anxiety around which shade or shape would look best. Thankfully, Dr. Fukada helped me through this process with her expertise and experience. I left the dental office that day realizing I went with the right dental team for this veneer procedure because they were so comforting and I knew I could trust their decision making. Premier Dental provided me with temporary veneers for 3 weeks and they gave me the heads up that I may experience some tooth sensitivity because the dentin layer would be exposed. When I returned for the permanent veneers, I knew I was in the best hands possible and they got right to it. Something about Dr. Fukada is she's a master at numbing... no intense pain!They drilled a bit to create a bonding surface and then bonded the veneers to my teeth. Based on my experience, I've come to realize the veneers process is very complex and can get confusing at times. Fortunately, Dr. Fukada and the Premier Dental team were very experienced and caring. I knew I could trust them and I knew they had my best interest in mind! I recommend Dr. Fukada and Premier Dental Group for cosmetic dentistry. ZERO REGRETS! (See photo below)

I trusted Premier Dental Group Aiea and Dr. Keileen Fukada to help close a small gap between my…read morefront teeth, but the experience was traumatic and unprofessional. On my very first visit, my teeth were shaved down without a proper consultation, preview, or discussion of the design plan. There was no wax-up, no mock-up, and no real chance to pick a shade or shape. I was rushed through the procedure without being fully informed of the risks or how much of my healthy enamel would be removed. I then had to live with fragile temporary veneers for three weeks, experiencing tooth sensitivity, anxiety, weight loss, and regret. When I came back for the permanent veneers, they were completely wrong: yellow, wide, and unnatural. I was numbed and drilled before even seeing them, then expected to approve them on the spot. When I rejected them, the doctor only offered to remake them "one shade whiter and a little longer/skinnier," but again gave me no preview, no reference pictures, no tools to confirm the plan, and sent me home still scared and confused for another two weeks. After I strongly insisted, I was finally sent to the lab to pick a custom shade. The lab technicians were far more caring and helped me select a color from a completely different shade guide, far better than anything the doctor had suggested. It shocked me that if I hadn't complained repeatedly, I would have ended up with another failed set of veneers. Dr. Fukada even told me mock-ups are only for "full mouth" cases -- that is unfair and unacceptable. I don't understand how a dentist could disregard a patient's wishes so completely and strip away their right to make informed decisions. This process has left me with weeks of mental stress, tooth pain, regret, and a huge loss of trust. I cannot recommend Premier Dental Group Aiea for cosmetic dentistry, and I hope they seriously improve their patient communication and ethics.

Speaking on the phone to Jo and Corie to make the appointment was a positive first impression. They don't realize how relieved I felt. Both were so nice, welcoming and compassionate. In fact, setting foot in the office was a good feeling. My fear seemed to have disappeared without even realizing. When I met Dr. Hiramoto, my overall well-being was his priority. He was aware of my allergic reactions and gave a brief consultation before the exam. I was greatly impressed with Dr. Hiramoto's vast knowledge and "keen insight." I liked that he looked at the overall picture instead of just my immediate issue. After the exam, he provided a solution for my situation, made a quick phone call then explained the plan to me. I knew at that moment, Dr. Hiramoto will become my new dentist. Assistant Genie, so polite and nice, and Hygienist Raena, who gave me lots of useful tips - also made my first experience a pleasant one. After my second visit today, all I can say is that I feel blessed and grateful to have found Dr. Hiramoto and his team. They all lifted a heavy burden off my shoulders; especially, after going through over a year of frustration and uncertainties with a previous dental experience. Thank you!! If I could add on another star to my rating, I would. Dr. Hiramoto is AMAZING!

My hubby had an appointment with Dr Emily Iyomasa for Tuesday, 10/10/23 at 8:30AM. This was a…read morefirst-time seeing this dentist. Even though we have a regular dentist, he wanted to get a 2nd opinion from an oral surgeon. Dr Emily is not an oral surgeon but he needed to see her first to get the referral. This dental office is located in the Aiea Medical building on Aiea Heights Drive right across the street from McDonald's/Aiea Shopping Center. For those of you who live in the area, you know what a bear it is to get into the parking lot & leave off busy Aiea Heights Drive. The parking lot is not very big & if that is full, there are more spaces in the building, but not a lot more. I've heard that parking is expensive here & sure enough, the sign by the parking ticket dispenser shows it's free for the first 1/2 hr & $2 for each 1/2 hr after that. Luckily since our appointment was early, when we pulled in, we found parking right away. Parking spaces are a little tight. When you leave, there's a cashier/lot attendant just around the corner from the elevator where you pay then head to your parked car. You will need the paid ticket to exit to insert in the machine. Once it's confirmed, the arm raises, & then you can exit but you have to pay first before you leave your parking spot. The dental office is on the 2nd floor. Small, but a neat waiting area with a TV. We completed some paperwork & waited just a few minutes before we were called in. Personnel were nice & efficient, not overly friendly, but pleasant. Shortly after we were seated, Dr Emily came in. She grew up here locally. My hubby discussed with her why he was there. Dr Emily was friendly, easy to talk to & listened carefully to my hubby's concerns. She was down to earth & seemed to genuinely care, even though he was not a regular patient. She asked some pointed questions & offered solutions & to make some calls on my hubby's behalf. I found that so reassuring that she would go above & beyond for us. From the time we got there until the time we left, 1 1/2 hrs had passed, most of the time talking with the dr. What I appreciated was, she didn't rush us & even answered some questions I had. We don't know if she had other appts after us, I'm sure she did for when we left, the waiting area was full. But the fact that she didn't rush us just to get to the next patient, impressed me. This was probably the only time we'll see her, but if I needed to go to another dentist in the future, she'd be at the top of the list. We appreciated her time, kudos to you Dr Emily Iyomasa & your staff. Two things that would prevent me from going back are - they do not validate for parking & that they charge a $56 cancellation fee if it is outside of 48 hrs - wow! The first time you cancel, they give you a pass because they understand unexpected stuff happens but then that's it. They make you sign a form so that you are aware of this. Parking cost us $4 for 1 1/2 hrs, not as bad as I thought.
