    Books she recommend me
    Kaitlin M.

    I can't say enough about her. She treats the whole person not just the mouth. I got my wisdom teeth taken out here when I was 16. Then I got assisted my lip taken out when I was 22. Now I'm 28 and my mom Just got a full bone graft done and teeth pulled and Dr Lew found an artery clogged in her neck and refused to operate until that was addressed and checked out. My mom's own neurologist at Kaiser didn't even find an artery issue but Dr Lew did! She got two other quotes from dentists and they didn't care. They just wanted the money for the cosmetic implants. They didn't even mention the carotid artery being clogged in the scans. They looked at the same scans that Dr Lew did she's amazing and even told me about books to read to help my mom's overall health and her recovery and better her all around from diabetes to kidney disease to heart attacks. She's literally amazing , and worth every penny.

    My family has been coming to Dr.Lew from when she was in her other office. I am not one for having a tooth yanked out at the neighborhood dentist office, which my insurance will gladly pay. Most procedures that we've had done here were not 100% covered by our insurance, but i dont care, i like to be knocked out. The office is always clean and inviting, plenty of parking. She has removed me and my husband and 2 of my daughters wisdom teeth and another daughter had 2 teeth removed by her for braces. She and her staff are wonderful and we will continue to come to her for all our dental surgery needs that we might have in the future.

    A week and a half ago I went to Cerritos Smiles because of a tooth ache and discovered that I had 4 impacted wisdom teeth and was going to remove them on the fourth with this Dentistry. My mom's friend recommended Dr. Lew and encouraged me to get a second opinion with Dr. Lew. She was very thorough with her explanation of what needed to be done and cared very much about the overall outcome of my mouth rather than just proceeding with removing all 4 of my wisdom teeth immediately. She then gave me a clear explanation on how to care for my teeth until the procedure. This week I had pain so she kindly scheduled me in right away to get them removed this Friday. When I came in that day I was very anxious because I have anxiety and she and the wonderful staff made sure to answer any questions and made me feel very comfortable. The procedure went smoothly and there was minimal swelling and pain. Would highly recommend coming to Dr. Lew!

    Dr Dina Lew !!! She is awesome!!!

    This review is years in the making. I don't typically write negative reviews, especially for small…read morebusinesses, because I understand one experience may not reflect the majority. But in this case, I feel it's important to share. I came to this office years ago after moving to Cerritos, right before my wedding, simply looking for a new dentist and a routine cleaning. They had great reviews, which is why I trusted them. From the start, I was told I had extensive issues--multiple cavities needed to be redone and several crowns were recommended. This was surprising to me, as I've consistently gone to the dentist and had never been told I needed such drastic work. Still, I trusted their assessment. The procedures that followed were some of the most painful dental experiences I've ever had. They took hours, felt extremely aggressive, and left me in severe pain afterward--far beyond what I've ever experienced with dental work. I have a high pain tolerance, and this felt very wrong. What was most frustrating was what happened next. I returned multiple times explaining that I couldn't sleep, eat, or function due to the pain. Each time, my concerns were dismissed and attributed to things like not flossing (umm I couldn't floss because of the extreme pain), which didn't make sense given the level of pain I was in. After pushing back repeatedly--especially with my wedding just days away--I insisted something was seriously wrong and requested further evaluation. It turned out I needed three root canals as a result of their prior work. Separately, the crowns that were placed caused ongoing issues. Eating anything with texture would cause gum pain, and I noticed unusual gaps that trapped food. When I brought this up, I was told the only solution was to redo the crowns at additional cost. My crowns also came off. Later, I happened to see a different dentist at the same office (a female provider who may have been temporary), and she immediately noted that the crowns had been placed at an awkward angle. She corrected them, and since then, I've had no pain and no further issues such as crowns falling off. I ultimately switched dentists and have not needed any major dental work since--just routine cleanings every six months, with no recurring problems. Based on what I went through--particularly the aggressive treatment, the outcome, and the dismissal of my concerns--I feel it's important for others to have full context before making a decision.

I was there for a consultation and they ended up misplacing my son's referral as well as the CD of his 3D CT scan. I hate that their response was to "simply do another CT scan for my kid for free." That wasn't the point.. the point was they were careless and lost his CD therefore having to reexpose my 7 yr old to more unnecessary radiation from the CT scan. And I'm not kidding when I say that when they literally finished redoing the CT scan they ended up finding the CD on the doctors desk. My husband and I were livid!! Livid with the doctor's office and how they handled my son's medical records that we are highly considering filing a complaint with the medical board. If you want mishandling of medical records and multiple exposures to unnecessary ct scans then this is definitely the place to go. Avoid this place at all cost and go and support another more capable doctor and their offices who deserve and respect your time and health because they 100% will be more organized and will also care more about their patients well being than this office.

Rebecca and Ashley at the front are always friendly and professional, and they keep everything running smoothly. One thing that really stands out is how clean and sanitary the office is. Everything is spotless, and they even provide shoe covers to help keep the office extremely clean, which shows how much they care about maintaining a safe and hygienic environment for their patients. The service is also incredibly efficient. There's virtually no waiting. As soon as I walk through the door, I'm quickly brought in by the dental assistant, and Dr. Trinh Bui is right behind them ready to get started. Dr. Bui provides excellent dental care and takes the time to make sure everything is done right while making you feel comfortable throughout the visit. If you're looking for a professional, clean, and well-run dental office with a welcoming staff, I highly recommend Los Cerritos Dental Practice.

She does the cleanings herself and is incredibly gentle and precise. When my wife had a chipped tooth, Dr. Bui repaired it so flawlessly you couldn't even tell it had been damaged. Her attention to detail is unmatched. The office is refreshingly transparent with billing. They clearly explain what's covered and what's not, so there are no surprise charges. Her assistants, Ashley and Rebecca, are amazing--always helpful, kind, and professional. Rebecca is especially knowledgeable about billing and insurance, and they accept all types of insurance, which makes things much easier. One thing we really appreciate is that the office is never overbooked. Appointments run on time, and you never feel rushed or like you're being squeezed in. That calm, organized flow makes every visit feel respectful and relaxed. Dr. Bui is a hardworking, honest general dentist who never pushes unnecessary procedures. That integrity is a big reason why our family's dental health is in such great shape. In a time when it's rare to find a dentist who isn't driven by upselling, Dr. Bui stands out for her genuine care and professionalism. She's also amazing with kids. When our daughter needed six fillings years ago, Dr. Bui made the experience painless and reassuring. She used laughing gas, which she's certified in, and avoided general anesthesia--something other dentists were recommending. We appreciated that thoughtful approach and have trusted her ever since. Scheduling is easy, and the office runs smoothly. Whether it's a routine cleaning or a more involved procedure, we always feel well cared for. And here's a fun detail: Dr. Bui has the perfect height for a dentist--she works comfortably without needing to slouch, which you don't always get with taller dentists. It's just one more reason her work is so precise and consistent. We're grateful to have found her--and we recommend her wholeheartedly. Sunny and family!
