Best dentist in Pasadena! Dr. Michael Ma is honest, gentle, and very knowledgeable. The office is modern and super clean, and the staff makes you feel comfortable right away.

I felt no discomfort throughout the whole process. Highly recommend if you want quality dental care without feeling pressured! read more

I don't write many reviews, but Dr. Michael Ma has earned this one. I've been following him for years -- sent my dad and multiple friends his way, and every single one of them stuck with him. That tells you everything. He's never pushed a single unnecessary treatment on me. No upselling, no scare tactics -- just honest, expert care. In dentistry, that's rare and worth its weight in gold. He just opened his own practice offering Invisalign and implants. Long overdue. Book now before everyone else catches on. read more

Dr. Michael Ma is an amazing dentist! I was looking for a new dentist since I moved to Altadena and have been putting it off since Covid . I was lucky to meet Dr. Ma and his amazing team.

Everything was explained to me in detail and Dr. Ma was transparent and genuine in his discussion of my options.

exceptional service here! i hate the dentist but ever since i visited Dr Ma he changed my whole outlook on it best visit i ever had.

Best visit to the dentist! Dr. Ma is amazing at what he does. He makes the patient feel very comfortable. I had found this place based on their reviews & needed a dentistry nearby. I went in for a cleaning followed up with my top wisdom teeth removed. Very pleasant experience, fast & professional. read more

So far I've had a great experience with Dr. Tsai and the entire office. The first time I came I let the front office know I had to leave in an hour. I filled out paperwork and waited for ~30 min and Diane from the front office let me know that the doctor probably wasn't going to see me on time because another patient had an emergency. I had to reschedule but that's totally fine because she let me know before my hard stop. The dental assistants/hygienists are very nice and personable. She helped get my xrays and did it efficiently without hurting me. I had my dental cleaning and the doctor really scrapped my teeth lol. It was a little painful but I knew my teeth were actually getting cleaned. He also took the time to explain how fluoride works since I have receding gums and also showed me what my teeth looked like due to my teeth grinding. I knew I had it but didn't know the severity of it because other dentists would just tell me but not actually show me. read more

I had such great care from Dr. Tasi that I knew I had to post my experience. As a new patient, I thought I knew exactly what to expect - a pleasant but cursory exam and teeth cleaning. Instead I received the most thorough cleaning and top quality care that reminded me of the kind of dental care from 25-30 years ago. In addition, Dr. Tasi noticed and then made a slight correction on a 4 yr. old crown that aligned my bite. Didn't take him more than 5 minutes and the difference when I bit down was instantaneous. If there were more than 5 stars, I would give them! Sharon in Altadena read more

My dentist sold his practice just before Covid and I hadn't been to the dentist since. It was really easy to make an appt with Dr. Tsai's office. The visit was very smooth and no aggressive upselling to procedures or services. Dr. Tsai did my cleaning himself and was very efficient. His office staff were all very professional and friendly. They clearly want patients for the long term and not just trying to squeeze as much money out of you on your first visit. I highly recommend. read more

I've be going to Dr. Tsai since I was 5 years old (30 now). He is the only one I will trust due to his professionalism and the quality of his work when it comes to dentIstry. I will take my child to him because the work he does is great! read more

I hate the dentist but I have been coming here for about 3 years and I love how I'm taken care of every single visit from both the Staff and the Dentist. All my questions are answered every visit. Appt are accommodating as are check up visits. Looking for a good Dental office this is definitely the place. read more

Dr. Tsai and his staff are always professional and willing to help with all and any dental work needed, I am happy to say when I got my impacted wisdom tooth removed he tried to make it as fast and as painless as possible. I don't think I will be going to another dentist anytime soon. They are usually able to work with getting you an appointment as soon as possible when there is much needed work. The office is also very clean and they are always friendly. read more

Dr Tsai is still at the same location and going strong! A great, gentle, friendly dentist. (If you're nervous going to the dentist, try Dr. Tsai. ) It was reported that he had moved and I was glad to find out that wasn't true!. Yippee! Just made an appointment. read more

Dr. Tsai is and his staff are very professional. As a dentist, he is probably one of the best dentists in Pasadena for knowledge & experience. He is kind and caring in his treatment. He's does not over-treat or recommend unnecessary procedures. He will show you the cavity right on the X-ray if you ask. Once I had a cavity that was very close to the root, but due to his care, it was only a filling and not a root canal. Dr. Tsai is a full service dentist in that he does it all --like an old fashioned dentist. He does the root canals, caps, extractions, etc. Its so nice when you trust your dentist and then when an extensive procedure is needed, not to have to go to another. He's been my dentist for many years. I recommend him any chance I get. He's just remodeled his office so he now looks as professional as he has always been. read more

Dr. Tsai is an excellent dentist! My family has been going to him for years, and we all love him. His prices are fair and reasonable too.
