I was initially scared to get my wisdom tooth removed as an older patient, but the doctors (Dr. Eric Chung and Tony Chung) were highly competent and I had no complications or down time at all. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs their wisdom teeth removal or oral maxillary surgeries. read more

Dr. Chung is the Best of the best, I called him an hour after the tooth extraction today, it's bleeding, and scared it wouldn't stop, he answered the call and came back to the office, and found out that nothing was wrong, he explained to reassure me and gave me more shot. No extra fee. read more

2 months ago I went in for a wisdom tooth extraction. Got all 4 yanked out at the same time. I was put under general anesthesia for the operation. I went to sleep and less than an hour later I woke up and they were done. I healed fantastically within the specified time the doctor stated. They provide instructions for the after care part of the procedure to ensure minimal complications. They eased my anxiety during the consultation and I walked out of there confident it would be successful. Overall this office gets a 10/10. I highly recommend them especially if you're looking to get a tooth pulled. Thank You, Dr. Chung! read more

My husband and I have been going to Dr Chung for the last 6 years. In the past we have both had bad experiences with the dentist. After seeing Dr Chung my fear has been removed, I trust this dentist I trust his staff. The visiting Dr Chong has completely changed my mindset about going to the dentist I will be forever grateful for Dr Chung and his staff. He's the only dentist for us read more

Eacellent. Caring dentists. Will come back for next treatment. Highly recommended. Family of three dentists in one office with three locations. Happy to be considered in one in Burbank. read more

I went to one other oral surgeon before proceeding with my wisdom tooth removal surgery for all 4 teeth at Dr. Tony Chung's office. Safe to say, my experience at Dr. Chung's office superseded my expectations and left the first oral surgeon IN THE DUST. I had a consultation and the actual surgery in the Burbank office. I had a phone call in preparation for my consultation (with the billing specialist?), and they were very transparent and detailed about fees and insurance. The person was kind and obviously very knowledgeable, and she even explained my specific insurance benefits (United Concordia). I didn't feel pressured at all, and I felt safe to ask all the dumb questions ha ha. They also asked me if I had any recent X-Rays and if I could bring a printed copy. This was great because it meant that I didn't have to pay more for an unnecessary scan. When I went for my actual consultation, it wasn't hard to find parking; there's plenty on the adjacent street and they even have a small back lot. The waiting room was clean, and I was greeted very kindly by the front desk. I spoke with Dr. Michael Chung for my consultation. He didn't need to look in my mouth since all the information was pretty evident in the printed copy of my panoramic X-ray. We talked for about 20-30 min, and he explained everything about wisdom teeth from both a medical and personal standpoint (i.e. complications, risks, finances, age factor, etc). He even annotated on my printed x-ray as he explained the procedure, I was very impressed. At that point, I felt like I was confident in my decision to remove all 4 teeth at once with IV sedation with the Chung family. After I spoke with Dr. Michael Chung, I sat in the room for a few minutes waiting for the billing specialist I spoke to a few weeks ago on the phone (I should've gotten her name!). When she came in, she apologized for the wait and went into detail about my bill estimation; she had actually REMEMBERED that I went to a different oral surgeon first and guessed how much they charged me so that it can be factored into how much my insurance would cover. I was pleasantly surprised, and in the middle of our conversation I remembered that the other oral surgeon had already submitted a claim to my insurance that week, so I let the billing specialist take a look over it as well and I watched her RECALCULATE in real time. Her first estimate was pretty darn close to the actual estimate -- I was super impressed again. I've had bad experiences with billing before since a lot of people have been dismissive of my questions and concerns, so this made me happy. The quote itself was extremely fair, the other place quoted me $1000/two teeth which is pretty outrageous (they did not want to remove all my impacted wisdom teeth since they said it would be complicated for them). My actual surgery went super well. It was performed by the man himself I believe, Dr. Tony Chung. He inserted the IV needle through my hand instead of my arm, since I mentioned I have a history of being a bad poke. The procedure to remove 3 impacted (2 lower, 1 upper) and 1 fully erupted (1 upper) took about 45 min -- I was impressed AGAIN. Dr. Tony Chung then asked me if I wanted my removed teeth, and after saying yes he gently put it in my shirt pocket lol. I then had a follow up appointment at the Van Nuys office. It was in a mixed use building and I parked in the big parking structure. I got a little lost at first since it was my first time. So in that sense, I prefer the Burbank office a bit more. Anyways, I was quickly met with Dr. Eric Chung I think? He had longer hair and he was present at my surgery. He was very swift, and his explanations for post-procedure care were clear. He examined my extraction sites and showed me how to properly irrigate the holes. No complaints there, I was in and out in a jiffy -- so I was impressed for the 4th time. To summarize, my experience was excellent and smooth. All of the Chung family and staff are clearly knowledgeable, experienced, and caring. I recommend this place 100% to anyone that needs dental work. read more

I had Surgery at this office and Michael and Tony were amazing, I had 3 implants put in, I never was in pain! I started a year ago with them every visit every surgery was top notch I can't thank them enough for everything they did! The office personnel very nice I highly recommend them Thank You Dr Michael and Tony Debra Long read more

Beware !!!!!!!!! This Dr is a total scam !!! Not only did my teenage son ended up in the hospital the night of surgery because of blood loss but they also charged us and our insurance company twice and got paid twice! We've been through hell and back with their incompetent office staff trying to get our refund... Please please think twice about taking your kids to Dr Chung before having any procedures. Now we're left with a 5,000 hospital visit and a 2,000 ambulance visit not to mention paying them twice for the surgery!!! I don't want this to happen to anyone else out there so please beware!!!!!

I was referred by my dentist for extraction of my lower wisdom teeth. I had my consultation and x-rays with Dr. Michael Chung, who gave me all the necessary information: why the extraction was important, the steps of the procedure, as well as pre- and post-care. Dr. Tony Chung handled the extraction and my follow-up visit. He walked me through everything, and answered any questions I had. I had only minimal swelling on the first day with no pain whatsoever. The office also called in the prescription for pain relievers and antibiotics to my preferred pharmacy ahead of time so that it was ready to pick up by the time I was done (which was no more than an hour). The staff were all friendly and helpful. Everyone from the front desk to assistants to both doctors had such great demeanors that I had no qualms about surgery. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. read more

I was referred to Dr. Chung by my dentist to take out my two upper wisdom teeth, one of which was impacted. I had previously had x-rays taken (bring them if you have them! Save yourself some money) but they didn't properly show the impacted tooth so they had to take new ones. My appointment was for 1:00 pm and I was ready to leave by 2:10 pm, including all of the paperwork, x-rays, payment, and the extraction itself. Dr. Chung was extremely professional, patient, and knowledgeable. He explained the entire procedure in detail, went through the aftercare process, and answered all questions I had before starting the extraction. I initially wanted to be put to sleep, but my insurance didn't cover it so I went with local anesthetic. It wasn't difficult for two teeth, but if you have any more than that, or get squeamish easily, I'd definitely recommend going under. The receptionist and dental assistants are extremely kind and reassuring, and their encouragement helped settle some of my nerves. Dr. Chung numbed the area with some topical anesthetic, then went in with shots. Thanks to the topical, you can't really feel much, but I did feel the pressure from the needles. At most it feels like a sharp pinch. After waiting for a bit, Dr. Chung tested out the area to make sure it was properly numb, then started the extraction. Not gonna lie- it was pretty gnarly, but it didn't hurt a bit. The worst part is definitely the noises and the pressure, but Dr. Chung was great the entire time. After explaining what to do and what not to do for the first day, Dr. Chung gave me a prescription for painkillers and antibiotics and sent me home with some gauze. He will tell you to take the painkillers as soon as you get home. MAKE SURE TO DO THIS BEFORE THE ANESTHETIC WEARS OFF. I'm on the third day of recovery and it's gone extremely smoothly- haven't experienced any pain at all. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Chung to any of my friends who need their teeth extracted, especially for the ones who get anxious at the idea of dental work. read more

I would recommend this place to everyone if you are going to have wisdom teeth removal!! I had all my 4 wisdom teeth pulled out at the same time here, with pain-free during or after surgery. They really took care of everything you need, explain everything you need to know, super nice staff and doctors!! It's has been 3 weeks after my surgery, I don't feel any pain just a little uncomfortable in the first week, and I can totally eat normally less than 2weeks after surgery read more

Had three of my wisdom teeth extracted at once by Dr. Chung. He is very knowledgeable and explains everything clearly. I feel like I had a lecture, in a good way. I had a bit of swelling which is expected. Pain is also totally acceptable with the medications given. I'm now one and a half week post surgery and I'm 90% recovered. Glad that I took them out so no worries anymore. read more

This dr is amazing came to see him was so nervous but he made me feel calm,relax,comfortable. Going back to see him.

The Best dentist surgeon, I would recommend this place, they took care of you very good, Thank you for Dr. Michael Chung for helping my teeth removal :) read more

Took my son for a consultation. Dr. Chung is very informative, goes over every option throughly. He actually educates his patients. His front office staff can be abrupt and rushed at times. They aren't rude but they aren't warm and fuzzy either. I think they could improve in this area especially when dealing with your children and possible procedures, you need some warmth and compassion. The office itself is small and old decor. Parking is easy. I would completely trust Dr. Chung to do any procedure needed. read more

What an extraordinary experience! This office is the perfect place for a person who needs an extraction. These folks made it almost pleasant. I Highly recommend this office to anyone who fears the process. All of them are really, really good, from office staff to the doctors Chung. read more

Dr. Chung is amazing. He only spent a few minutes to pull out my impacted wisdom teeth. I extracted one two years ago in another place which is a terrible memory, so I really afraid this surgery in the first place. But for now, I have full confidence to remove the remaining two wisdom tooth with Dr. Chung. read more

I was referred to Dr. Chung by my dentist to extract 4 impacted wisdom teeth. Dr. Chung and his staff made the process so seamless and truly go above and beyond to offer the best experience. Everything was explained to me before hand, step by step. I have very little to no pain (only some discomfort). His office staff was extremely helpful, before and after the procedure! Highly recommend Dr. Chung to anyone who is looking for an oral surgeon! read more

i had a very bad experience at a different oral surgeon a year ago. it was so bad i didn't think i would ever go back to one again. i was lucky enough that someone referred me to the three dr. chung's. father and his two son's. all of them were so kind and patient with me. i felt nothing and 9 hours since i still have no pain. i would give them 10 stars if it was possible. i love you all and thank's a million for helping me. read more

Got my wisdom teeth out here and i was very happy! he explains everything very clearly and although my teeth were impacted, everything was back to normal about a week later. read more

I got my wisdom tooth pulled today. Dr chung is amazing. I am terrified of dentists to the point that i was suffering from an impacted wisdom tooth that i had no choice but to get it pulled. I was referred by my boyfriend and i must say it was so painless and quick. The dr is very friendly and knowledgable and just made it very comfortable. The only thing is that i wanted my mom to come in with me but i was not able to. Besides that i am very satisfied. read more

Dr. Chung is AMAZING. He talks you through the procedure before at the consultation and during the actual procedure. He is very sweet and genuinely cares about his patients comfortability and care. A super steady hand makes for the best outcome. The front desk also shows immense hospitality - talking through the after care and what to expect. I got all four wisdom teeth removed, and this is the first day of healing, so coming from me I think that shows just how amazing Dr. Chung is at what he does. He's been in practice for many years and to book an appointment - you're looking into at least two weeks, which I think is proof of how good he is. His assistant, Maria, was also very pleasant and good at what she does. Great team. Wouldn't have wanted to go through this sometimes awful experience with any other team. Recommending to all my friends and family. read more

I was referred to Dr. Chung by my dentist to get a broken tooth extracted. She promised he was pain free. Well, she was right. The procedure ended up being 100% pain free and here l am after getting an extraction earlier today, writing a review, pain free. To add to the greatness, this was done under local anesthesia, so I was up the whole time, and still no discomfort whatsoever. All I did was twiddle my thumbs and a few minutes later I was done. Great experience for a person like me who is terrified of dentist. 5 stars across the board. ---A happy patient read more

I've had several tooth extractions during childhood years, it was quite painful that one will never forget. I dread having dentist visits. Now, in my 40s, I had a cavity in a wisdom tooth, needed an extraction. Needless to say, I was quite petrified. Dr. Chung reviewed the x-ray, went over the procedure, patiently waited for the anesthesia to kick in. Before I knew it, it was over, painlessly! The nurse told me to take Motrin after the anesthesia wore off, I was anticipating another unpleasant experience. To my surprise, I didn't need Motrin after all and it did not bleed much! Thank you Dr Chung. read more

My son had to have his wisdom teeth removed as well as having to make holes for the molars to come down. I could not be more happier with Dr. Chung. He took the time before the procedure and explained everything. He was honest and caring. The best! read more

I just got all 4 of my wisdom teeth extracted this past Monday and Dr. Chung did an amazing job. I was so terrified of having to get this done that I prolonged it for at least 10 years. During my initial consultation with Dr. Chung, he was very informative and thorough in explaining the process to me. This gave me reassurance that I was in good hands. On the day of my extraction, Dr. Chung and his friendly staff made me feel comfortable being there. All I remember was Dr. Chung telling me that I'm going to be tired in 20 seconds as he gave me the IV sedation. After that, the rest was history! I had the best sleep ever! All this time I stressed out for nothing! Days later, I'm recovering well and am so thankful that I decided to get my wisdom teeth out. No more worries! Thank you Dr. Chung and to your staff for making the whole experience a positive one! I highly recommend Dr. Chung! He is exceptional in his profession. read more

I had a molar suddenly start falling apart. No warning. Obviously in deep decay and in need of some immediate dental attention. I went into Dr. Chungs office, after a dental referral. I was completely panicked, just scared beyond belief. They had also found that one of the roots of the decaying wisdom tooth had not grown in straight, but rather, in the shape of a 7, wrapping itself around the nerve. I almost had to be dragged in. I went, put my brave face on, and listened to Dr. Chung go over everything with me. Not going into detail, but he started (I opted for Novocain only, and as much as possible) again, while he was giving me more Novocain, but he started. Gave Novocain as needed and just started to work his magic. I kid you no, there was virtually no pain and the pressure was minimal. What seemed like 15 - 20 minutes into the procedure, he's sewing me up. No major nothing. No cutting into the nerve, no nothing. NO PAIN. I would and do highly recommend Dr. Chung. I read another review on his staff, and they're absolutely right. All void of personality, kindness, you know, what you need into today's world. All lacking. Dr. Chung, however, is not lacking. read more
