She made me feel comfortable and took her time to make sure my cleaning was comfortable at all times since I was in for a deep cleaning and it is more invasive. She was professional, attentive, and genuinely made the whole experience so pleasant. My teeth felt amazing afterward and I requested her to be my default hygienist Dr Nguyen is someone I can trust. He took the time to explain my diagnosis, recommended treatment, answered my questions, and never made me feel rushed. What stood out to me most was how conservative and honest he was with my care; he didn't try to recommend unnecessary treatment, only focusing on what I actually needed and wanted ( 1 crown 1 onlay, 2 fillings).That gave me so much peace of mind coming from another office who tried to upsell/ over diagnose for their own benefit. I left feeling informed, comfortable, and confident in the QUALITY of care I received and the crowns/fillings material (all white)!! I have already recommended him and his staff to my family and friends!

We removed all 4 in one go and the swelling has been very minimal and to my surprise I've experienced little to no pain. His dental team was very supportive, friendly, and funny throughout the entire process and the dental assistants were super caring and communicative--I felt very safe in their hands. I would highly recommend Dr. Kim !!

I needed to have both of my lower wisdom teeth removed, and since I had never had any kind of tooth…read moreextraction or surgery before, I was extremely nervous. From the moment I walked into Honest Oral Surgeon, the staff made me feel at ease. They were professional, friendly, and very patient. After taking my X-rays, they carefully explained everything to me and answered all my questions. I also watched a pre-procedure instruction video, which helped me understand what to expect. When I met Dr. Kim, he was professional, clear, and straightforward. He explained my treatment options concisely and also pointed out potential risks related to my other teeth. After discussing everything together, we decided to take a conservative approach -- remove the wisdom teeth first and monitor the other teeth to see if they could recover over time. I really appreciated being involved in the decision-making process. The surgery itself was excellent. It was my first time receiving anesthesia and having teeth extracted, and I can honestly say I felt absolutely no discomfort. Dr. Kim removed both wisdom teeth efficiently and skillfully. (Yes, I could hear the drill and some hammering sounds -- which was a little funny -- but I felt zero pain.) After the procedure, I followed the instructions carefully, took the prescribed medication, and applied ice as recommended. It's now the second day, and I have no pain at all -- not even noticeable swelling. This is actually the longest Yelp review I've ever written, but I truly felt it was deserved. I highly recommend Honest Oral Surgeon and Dr. Kim to anyone who needs oral surgery.

I've had nothing but positive experiences with her and the entire team at Trooth & Smiles. She even met me at midnight on a Friday once to fix some serious pain I was having and followed up the next day to make sure I was doing ok. This wasn't a one off either. This is who she is and what she stands for. I will always be appreciative of her and her staff for that and all they've done for me. Tracey is also absolutely incredible. From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel welcomed, comfortable, and supported. Her positive attitude and genuine care for patients really stand out. She made me laugh every time I was in for a cleaning or getting work done. If you're looking for a dental practice with a team that truly cares about their patients, their well-being, and their dental health, I can't recommend Trooth & Smiles enough.

Pros: The office is modern, clean, and conveniently located close to home. The staff is friendly…read moreand professional, and I've generally had pleasant interactions during my visits. Cons: Unfortunately, my biggest concern is the billing practices and lack of transparency. This is the first dental office I've visited where I've consistently had to pay out of pocket for routine dental cleanings. Typically anywhere from $50-80 when this should be covered under my insurance plan. I've never experienced this with previous dentists, so I find it unusual. During my visits, additional tests and services seem to be performed without clearly explaining beforehand whether they are covered by insurance or will result in additional charges. I typically don't find out about these charges until afterward. I believe patients should be informed of any out-of-pocket costs and given the opportunity to consent before services are performed. Another frustrating experience is that after every cleaning, the office reviews additional dental work they recommend and immediately moves toward scheduling another appointment without first asking whether I'm interested in proceeding. While I understand the importance of preventative care and treatment recommendations, I would appreciate a less presumptive approach. Their pricing also seems significantly higher than what I've experienced at other dental offices. I'm not sure whether this is because they're located in Irvine, but the additional costs don't seem justified for someone who is only coming in for routine cleanings. What has been particularly disappointing is the lack of response to my billing inquiries. I've requested an itemized statement or receipt three separate times, once in person and twice via email, and have yet to receive a response. I simply want to understand exactly what I'm being charged for, which I believe is a reasonable request. For context, I have a family member in Fountain Valley who handles my major dental work. I chose Trooth & Smiles strictly for routine cleanings because of its convenient location. However, after speaking with other members of my community, I've learned that other dental offices in the Woodbury Plaza area reportedly do not charge additional fees for basic cleanings under the same insurance plan I have. Overall, while the office is nice and the staff is friendly, I don't believe the convenience justifies the additional costs and lack of billing transparency. I've decided to take my business elsewhere. I hope the office improves its communication regarding insurance coverage, obtains patient consent before performing services that may incur additional charges, and responds to requests for billing documentation. Patients deserve to know what they're paying for before receiving a bill, not afterward.
