I wanted very much to like this place and gave them so many chances, more than they deserved really. My elderly father went in for a meet and greet check up and to get an estimate for dentures. I drove him to the appointment but wasn't feeling so well so him and my husband went in while I waited out in the car never expecting the estimate of over twenty grand!!! I went over and over it thinking I must be reading it wrong, this was seriously close to 25k in total out of pocket even with insurance for a set of dentures. It did include a mouthful of extractions and some adjustments but still that is a hard pill for anyone to swallow! I mean we aren't even talking implants here! Because I wasn't there and had questions I called them twice just to make sure I was reading everything right and to make sure they had the most updated insurance for my father. The woman I spoke with assured me on two separate occasions that indeed I had read it correctly and that was the price with insurance. After a couple days I decided to call his insurance and they told me that they fully cover one set of dentures, have upgraded denture options and maximums that network dentists can charge as copays!? The insurance company sent me a "fee schedule" which I highly recommend asking for if you are headed to the dentist anytime soon and armed with that info I called them back. They changed their tune and said yes, insurance did cover a a full set completely but that it would be awful and low quality... I mentioned how insurance said for a higher copay they offer a premium version. The person I was speaking with said they did not know anything about that and I would have to speak with the dentist but did offer us the choice that cost three times the copay given by insurance for a premium set. Regardless of this my father and I discussed it and wanted to go in and see the choices thinking we would go with the extra fancy set because it was such an important thing. I should mention we also attended the free dental fair in Indio to have his teeth extracted which saved about 8k off that original estimate. So anyways, I call back to make and appointment and received the WORST possible customer service that I have ever experienced in my life! First I call on Friday morning and am told that the person helping us is busy and she will call back before the end of the day... I wait and (you guessed it) wait like a chump because no one called me back. I call over at around 3:30 and NO ONE answers the phone, the (god awful) automated system puts me on hold for over 15 minutes babbling on constantly trying to upsell me or tell me how someone will be on shortly to help me. It was pretty obvious that they closed the office early for a long weekend or something like that. Sooooooo I call bright and early on Monday morning the next day they are open and the person I was working with is not available because she is working at a different location so I decide to just go ahead and make the appointment with the person I am speaking with after being put on another long hold. We get about half way through me trying to explain what my dad needs and was hung up on so I call again and am put on hold another 10 minutes until I just can't take the annoying hold system any longer. I wait a while and call back again a couple times but every single time am just put straight to hold. So I decide I will call over to the lady who was helping us but working the other office today... she is busy so I leave a message explaining the experience and hard time I had been having just trying to make a simple appointment. I was told she would call me back, it was around 10:30AM according to my phone records. I call again around 1 "out to lunch" but still no call as of 3PM so I call back one last time and am told she is "too busy" but will once again "call me by the end of the day...." I try to explain to the person on the phone my frustration and she dismisses and talks over me so I just tell her there is no need to call me back. Fun fact, not only did they lose my Dad's business but my husband and I have top tier dental insurance and were planning on switching to this dental group too because it reminded us of our great dentists in San Diego but noooooo way. So in conclusion they lost three customers today and an estimated $2,500 sale but apparently they are so used to talking people into dropping 25k out of pocket on a simple set of dentures (lmao) I have no doubt they will be just fine! read more

I had such a great experience at Indio Modern Dentistry. As a first time patient, I expected a bunch of paperwork and just a cleaning. However, everything was super easy and quickly filled out on an iPad. After my x-rays and expressing my concern about some missing/ damaged crowns, I was offered the opportunity to have them replaced the SAME DAY! I drove over an hour because of the great reviews and I was elated I didn't need to make the trip twice. I also mentioned I hadn't had anything to eat yet and was brought snacks while I waited for the crowns to be milled on-site. The billing was also very thoroughly reviewed with me before I made my decision and multiple options offered for payment. Not to mention everyone was super kind (snacks and breaks when my TMJ was making it difficult to keep open!) , friendly and funny. I can't say enough great things 10/10 recommend! read more

Best first time visit to a dentist EVER!! Friendly, knowledgeable, professional staff, comfortable surroundings. Enjoyed meeting Dr Tran, very personable, well spoken, explains your long term plan, and answers any concerns you may have. Highly recommend this group for any dental concerns, routine or more complex procedures, Thanks you guys, keep up the great work! read more

Love it here! Dr. Tran and his team are so caring and great at what they do! I had an emergency and was brought in two hours after I called. I was treated so great even though I was nervous and a difficult patient. I will keep coming here and bringing my family and friends for years to come! read more

Dr.Kim is the best dentist I have ever been to in my life. I called with an emergency situation and they got me in the next day. I had a root canal done somewhere else prior and developed a large abscess so I was already scared. Dr.Kim discussed my options with me and pulled my tooth out while I was awake with numbing the very same day and removed the entire abscess with absolutely no pain at all. He was so nice and calming. I appreciate him very much because I was very scared walking in. Good Dentists in the valley are hard to come across and Dr.Kim is the best in the Coachella Valley, no doubt! If you need a procedure done, you want him to do it forsure. read more

Great service and painless! Friendly staff and knowledgeable. Easy parking close to office.

Went in for the first time as I am a snowbird to have a filling replacements for the one that fell out. Met by a wonderful young lady who assisted me with filling out the forms for new patients Dr. Tran came out introduced himself and we we to his office to discuss my situation. He then examined my tooth and then took a couple of xrays where it was discovered there was also a cavity in that tooth so close to the nerve and not much tooth to work with. Decided it really required a root canal and crown. He took great care in making sure I was comfortable during the procedure. I could not be happier with the work and personal treatment by his staff. read more

My wife needed an emergency visit for terrible tooth pain, called this place on a Thursday asking for an emergency visit and the office lady told me Tuesday is the earliest. Never mind we have dental insurance. Definitely will find another provider. read more

I had my first appointment yesterday with Dr. DeWenter, what a great experience! Jenn and all the staff were friendly, engaging and professional. I have already recommended her to two friends. The office is ultra modern, with all the latest equipment, look no further for your dental needs! read more

Great experience! Very helpful and knowledgeable with all my questions and concerns. Thanks to Jenny, monica, chely, and Dr. Tran definitely rescheduling. read more

It was my first time there and I chose this office due to reviews on yelp and Google. The reviews were indeed very accurate. From the beginning to end it was a smooth process from check in, to check out. I do recommend filling out your information online before coming in, it saves a lot of time. The staff was very nice, x-ray tech was very professional and easy to work with. The dentist did a fast job at answering any questions I had and gave great quality care. The dental assistant was very good, she had a soft soothing voice that I'm sure comes in handy with nervous patients and she is very thorough and explains everything she's going to be doing before and during the procedure. All in all I'm very satisfied with the care I received and will be going back. read more

Dr. Tran and his entire team at Indio Modern Dentistry have completely gotten rid of my fears and frustrations of going to the dentist. Admittedly, I haven't gone to any dentistry in years and my girlfriend recommended this place to me because I was looking to have my dental health assessed and my teeth cleaned. Once you've made an appointment, they send you a link via email to make sure to confirm your appointment. It's a nice touch because I would forget most things if it wasn't on my phone somehow. Once you're in for your appointment, they have you sign in and fill out your information on a tablet. It's a pleasant change from the usual dated clipboard process at most other health offices. Their front desk staff are very pleasant to talk to and very helpful. There was an instance where they needed to check my insurance over again due to the previous insurance representative being unable to verify if I had active coverage. They gladly got back on the phone and made sure they reached a more knowledgeable representative and verified that I was covered after all. Once they were ready to see me, my assessment began with Dr. Tran sitting down with me and going over all of my expectations. He seems to genuinely care about getting to know all of his patients beyond just their dental concerns. He made notes and went over what can be done about my concerns and then began a thorough examination with an x-ray followed by a gum health assessment with the rest of his team. Both his x-ray technician and hygienist were very thorough and talked me through their processes while educating me more about what they were seeing. The final step in the assessment was a re-cap with their recommendations and what the services would cost with my insurance. They made sure to give me options based on what was needed to be done and I made my follow-up appointments right away. I should mention that they offered to get the services done the same day but due to my schedule, I needed it done at a later time. Today, I just finished my 2nd deep cleaning appointment with their fill-in hygienist, Heather. I honestly wish that Heather was there permanently and not just for a short time. I started by saying that Dr. Tran's entire team put me at ease with going to the dentist and I've got to say that it's hugely due to the professionalism, skill, and patience of Heather. I went from having internal melt-downs when a needle was involved for anything to being perfectly calm thanks to Heather's technique. She constantly checks in with you to make sure if you're ever in any discomfort and makes adjustments when needed. She made the entire process of numbing and cleaning my gums so much less intimidating than what I was used to. Even knowing Heather aka Tsanumi won't be there for my next appointment in 3 months, I'm glad my girlfriend recommended Dr. Tran and his awesome team and that this was my initial impression of his office. I will gladly be returning. read more

Absolutely love this office and staff . I am very particular with my dentist (who isn't?) and this office makes you feel like family from the moment you step in the door. My husband and I both have different dentist in the office and both of us left saying how much we love our dentist . They took the time to show and explain procedures, they have very modern & new equipment, and they treat you like a person rather than a number . read more

My Wife and I, finally went to the dentist, it's been over a year, I saw Dr. DeWenter and my Wife saw Dr. Lee. Both were fantastic dentists. Both explained ever thing they were going to do and what need done at this time. I couldn't ask for a better dentists. The office staff was friendly, eager to help, and explained what my insurance would pay and how much we would pay out-of-pocket, so there were no surprises. Very reasonable fees, clean and modern facility, and state-of-the-art equipment. When we were finished with our teeth cleaning, both my wife and I said, they were the best dental hygienist we have ever had. Very pleased with this office and I would definitely refer friends and family to this office. read more

Dr A. Tran is great, he's honest and makes you feel relaxed. I loved my previous dentist but they were not open on Friday's. I was hesitant to try this new place but I was very happy after my visit. He didn't try to sell other products or services. He even adjusted an older crown that was causing me problems. I had an urgent request for appointment and they took me the next day. I'm very happy they opened in our community. The staff is also great. read more

Chipped my tooth on Monday night and wasn't able to get it fixed right away so luckily I was able to get into Indio modern dentistry and get it fixed today in one day. They made me a new crown it's beautiful. I am very happy with them and with the office. Very clean very friendly. Overall I have very good satisfaction with them. read more

Best dentist office I have obtained dental work yet. The staff is very professional, friendly and accomodating. Dr. Tran is very bright, professinal and knowledgeable. He knows his stuff. I love the work they did, the treatment and follow-up. I had a deep cleaning. It was done efficiently, with minimal pain or discomfort. I was not pressured or obligated to do anything I did not need. My husband also is having work done. He is having partial dentures done. He had his first fitting and they were perfect!!!!! read more

I waited for 2 months due to COVID 19 to be seen. I was rescheduled once and today was my appointment. I had to take my kids because no one could watch them. I show up and Lily, the front receptionist/Supervisor tells me we will have to Reschedule again, because they can't have my kids in the waiting room. No one mentioned anything about this, and she started giving me attitude and became very unprofessional. I'm saddened that I had this experience as a first time here. I understand protocol but there's a way to go about things. I'm not sure I'll be returning to my rescheduled appointment and I'm definitely not recommending this place to friends or family. I hope the owner gets to read this, because it's sad that the first impression of their business is this person who has attitude and isn't empathetic. read more

Dr Tran is very professional and helpful, customizing your needs and listening to you about your history, as well as engaging in friendly conversation. The office is very modern, very clean (and very new) and in a great location for North Indio residents. I only needed a cleaning but I would return for any procedure. And the office staff gave good advice on how to sign up for insurance, which I don't have since I retired. read more

Dr Tran has been our dentist for about 6 years now. We followed him from his previous clinic Desert Gateway Dental Group. We were given the option to stay with Desert Gateway or 'relocate' to Indio Modern Dentistry. It was an easy decision to follow him and the rest of his crew to Indio Modern Dentistry because of the exceptional dental care that they provide at every visit. It doesn't matter if the visit is as simple as routine cleaning or some work (crowns, fillings) has to be done, they make sure that they deliver nothing but the best dental care possible. When Covid-19 pandemic hit they have quickly adapted to make the visit as safe as possible. From conducting a health questionnaire prior to your visit, they check your temp and they do not make the waiting room crowded. The moment you arrive for your appointment, you call their number and wait in your car, I only waited for 2 minutes then called me, I signed the consent then off I went to get dental xrays. Shortly thereafter, Dr Tran performed the cleaning and as usual, it was easy, painless and efficient. He is a doctor that is not like other dentists who would try to sell you stuff or do unnecessary procedures. He is very honest and will tell you upfront if something needs to be fixed or not. You are informed with your out of pocket costs, insurance coverage and definitely no surprise bills through the mail. The clinic is very clean. The front desk personel (Jennifer and Lilly) are welcoming and friendly. Janet is amazing at what she does, personable and funny! Indio Modern Dentistry...Thank you to all of you! You are the best! read more

Wow, what a great experience. I, like most people, dread going to the dentist. It's just not a pleasant experience, until now! Dr Tran and his staff were so kind and gentle, from the moment I arrived. Zero pain, zero discomfort, zero anxiety. Highly recommend. read more

Supposedly I went in for a root canal well lo and behold job wasn't done correctly had to go to another dental place to get the job done correctly missed one nerve went half way on the other and just barely worked on the third.... read more

Great dentist office. All the staff is awesome and very knowledgeable. Dr Tran is very meticulous in what he does. Shout outs also to the dental assistants and hygienist working there. The front office staff is very helpful and nice. read more

I love this office. The receptionists in the front, the techs, the hygienist (heather) and the dr himself were all so great. Great team. Great environment with such good care. I would highly recommend this dentist office to anyone read more

One of my friends recommended this place to me. She used to see Dr. Tran at his other work place but she followed him to this location. I thought I would give Dr. Tran a try. I went in just for a cleaning. I found out that I had a really deep cavity! Dr. Tran walked me through the steps and was very thorough in explaining what was going to happen. He made me feel very relaxed. I have been to many doctors where they don't tell me what they are about to do, and it makes me nervous. Dr. Tran had to numb me too since the cavity was really deep. He was very patient and told me that the needle was going to go in now. I felt very safe and reassured. His staff is also amazing! They were very friendly and attentive. Thank you Janet, Sylvia, and Jennifer! I will definitely be coming back for my other dental needs. Thank you so much Dr. Tran! read more

They did an absolute amazing job on my root canal. They are so nice and calming. They numb the gum very well, so don't be scared of the needle. I would definitely recommend this office to younger kids or adults that are not very fond of dentists. By far the very best dentists and assistants!!!! read more

Found my new dentist and I love it!! Very friendly staff and professional. Excited to come back for my next cleaning

I am new to the Indio area and 3 weeks ago, I experienced a dental emergency. After calling around to at least 5 other dentists, Dr Tran's office gave me an appt in 35 minutes. The dentist and staff are highly skilled, friendly, and work together so well. I immediately felt safe and cared for in the best way. Dr Tran was able to isolate a recurrent dental problem I've had for over 10 years and suggest a feasible cost effective way to achieve the safest and best results. They are also quite effective in working with several types of dental insurance. Many thanks to Indio Modern Dentistry! read more

After a few months of waiting for an appointment due to COVID-19, I was greeted by an appreciative staff for my dental cleaning. Everyone in the office made me feel welcome, even with the new safety protocols in place. I patiently waited in my car until my hygienist was ready for me. I recommend this dental office to all my friends and family. They are following all CDC protocols. And that makes me feel safe! read more

I was asked to change an appointment that was scheduled six months ago. So I did. Made another appointment, came on time and sat waiting for half an hour before I asked what the problem was. Running late. No one bothered to tell me. Front office needs a lesson in customer service. I was able to find another dentist and booked an appointment for teeth cleaning. Not going back to Indio Modern Dentistry. read more

After avoiding going to the dentist for a few years I made an appointment For a checkup and cleaning. After a very thorough examination and X-rays it was determined that I needed a crown and a deep cleaning. I was surprised that both procedures could be done during that appointment. The permanent crown was made right in the office! Dr Tran and his entire staff made me feel at ease and we even had a few laughs during the procedures. I highly recommend Dr Tran. Thank you Indio Modern Dentistry! Your office is immaculate and I will return for future dental needs! read more

Everyone - from the front staff to the dentist (Dr. DeWenter) were so friendly and put me at ease immediately. I have the dreaded anxiety that comes from seeing the dentist that a lot of people suffer from, but this was the best experience I've had in a long time. I recently moved here, but previous to this I had seen 3 dentists in a span of 1 1/2 years. They were all fine, but this experience felt different and more comfortable. I'd highly recommend giving them a chance if you're looking for a new dentist. read more

Dr Tran, Kelly Hygienist (her new descriptive last name) and Jennifer the scheduling financial expert all did a Great Job!! They worked with my schedule and also communicating what they were doing and what I should expect prior to treatment including cost. They also both followed up the next day after treatment. I really appreciated the team and had a Great experience going to the Dentist and would highly recommend them. Thanks again Indio Modern Dentistry read more

I had a fantastic experience, the entire office is extremely warm and welcoming. I'm a nervous dental patient and Chely, the assistant made me feel comfortable, Kelly the hygienist was very calming, and my cleaning was perfect. Dr. Tran was attentive and kind, thank you for a wonderful experience!!! read more

I've been searching for a good dentist with reasonable prices, we know teeth are expensive more like a mortgage (LOL) but I found this place and to be honest I like it, the girls at the front desk were very nice from the first visit to the second one, went back today too get my deep cleaning and KELLY (Music soul sista) did an AWESOME JOB!!!! She made the experience very relaxing and we were actually singing throughout the procedure. Thanks again KELLS strawberry wine read more

Had an infection in my mouth. Contacted Indio Modern Dentistry. Received an appointment in 2 days. The office called back a few hours later and got me in the next day. I saw Dr Tran, very pleasant and thorough. Been having a problem in the lower back in front of where the wisdom tooth was. Decided to extract it. The oral surgeon was scheduled for the next day. They gave me an appointment and the surgeon removed the tooth. I have never been a good dental patient from my childhood but they made me as comfortable as I could be. Everyone in the office is very pleasant. read more

Amazing!!! I'm not big on going to the dentist but of course I know I have to. The staff is great and welcoming. I recently went in for my check up and noticed that the same vibe from my first visit was the same. They all laugh and get along so well. That is rare to see in any work place. I have to admit that is one of the reasons I continue to go. Along with how great the Drs are. There technology and equipment is so up to date, it makes everything so much easier. Most people expect to wait about 30 mins before you get called in and than another 30 mins for the Doctor to come in. Nope not here. There is inner action from the minute you walk in to the minute you check out. Keep up the Great work!! Best Dental office, hands down read more

Best services! I am terrified of the dentist and they were able to make me feel so welcomed. My teeth always hurt when I get cleaning and this time I felt no pain. My teeth came out shiny and white just like the dream smile I was wanting for a long time that no other dentist can do! Thank you all for your services! read more

I broke off part of a tooth while here on an extended vacation. I knew it would need a crown and did not want to wait til I got home and then wait for the lab to make the crown. So went to see Dr. Tran at Indio Modern dentistry. Wow, I was so thrilled that was able to get new crown that day. Yes it took a little while to get he X-rays, exam and talk about the cost, but so worth it. Loved watching my tooth being made (in 12 minutes)and everything explained to me. The new technology is so fantastic. I can now smile and not worry about my broken off tooth showing. I will be back whenever I am in The valley. I felt bad, kind of like I was "cheating" on my regular dentist, but so glad I did. read more
