Scheduling routine dental cleanings has always been easy and convenient. We decided to keep both children with the practice for orthodontics as well, thinking it would simplify appointments. However, we weren't aware that the orthodontist has limited office days and hours, which has made rescheduling appointments more challenging than expected. Had we known this upfront, we may have considered other options. That said, Dr. Wong has been wonderful and we're very happy with the care he provides. The staff is generally friendly and helpful. The only concern we've had is that the orthodontic assistant who sees my daughter has made her feel somewhat uncomfortable during the last few visits, possibly due to frustration over recurring broken brackets. Overall, we've had a good experience, and Dr. Wong has been a big reason why we've continued our orthodontic care here.

My oldest daughter comes here for orthodontics as well as for her dentist and her braces plan is progressing well. My son comes here for dentist only for now and has seen Dr. Reham. She is amazing. Super skilled at what she does and super gentle with the kids. You definitely feel like you can trust her. My son had cavities that had to be filled, with laughing gas and it went very well. Finally, my youngest daughter had the most dental work done here after she experienced cavities and tooth decay due to drinking milk in bed as a baby and not brushing afterwards. She had to do the repair under general anesthesia at 3, which is super nerve-wrecking as a parent but under the care of Dr Nancy it went very well. We appreciate that everything is super kid friendly, from the coin kids get to retrieve a prize at the end of each visit, the tee shirt and picture with the dentist they get on their first visit, etc. We will keep coming here and also a special shoutout to all the dental assistants!

I really appreciate how efficient and thorough the staff is when scheduling appointments and during our visits. They are so well staffed that things work like a well oiled machine. One of the best things is being able to get appointments after school so that I don't have to take any time off to get my kids here. At our old dental office, only morning appointments were available and it was super inconvenient for working parents. Want to give a special shout out to our dental hygienist Kevin who did a great job today and our orthodontist Dr. Janice! I'll always recommend SVPD!

He started developing a cavity between his two front teeth at age 3 and I informed the dentist sent photos & also booked an appointment to get it checked out asap. The Dentist said it was a cavity and to keep an eye on it pretty much is all he could do. He didn't recommend filling it since he was only 3 years old I believe he said we could wait until he's older. Fast forward 6 month the cavity got bigger & started spreading to other teeth! Brought him back for his normal 6 month check up and he said again nothing he can do since he's so young. Didn't offer or recommend anything basically said wait it out. We kept getting no real solution. That same week I took matters into my own hands and sourced two different dentist (out of pocket pay since we already did out 6 month cleaning) Both new dentist gave me a laundry list of all the work that needs to be done on my son. Almost 3k worth of work 6 fillings 3 baby root canals!!! Milpitas dentistry never mentioned all this extra stuff that both of my new dentist seen! He only mentioned the 2-3 cavities I brought up to him, I was so annoyed like how did they not see all of this?? Blows my mind that we payed this dentist $300 a visit for cleanings and all they ever did was brush his teeth and not even point out all of these cavities and just let them get bigger. I'm only writing this post because I found them on YELP so I don't want another person to have this experience.

As I was attempting to find my new insurance card (I have a different plan since our last visit), the front desk staff stated they could not find me online and asked me if I wanted a printout. I was confused by the question and asked "a printout of what" and she responded "do you want me to print out what we see...that we can't find your insurance coverage". I said no as I didn't see the point and wanted to focus on logging into my work phone to find my insurance card. The staff person decided to print it out and hand it to me anyway. I'm not sure if she thought this was helpful, but I found it to be very rude. What was I supposed to do with that printout? Then they proceeded to ask if I wanted to reschedule (it had been a good 10 minutes past our appointment time). No I did not want to reschedule! What would have been helpful would have been for the staff to take the kids back and start their appointments while I grabbed my laptop from the car and logged in to access their insurance card information. What would have also been helpful is to have an email listed on their website so I could give feedback directly to them. Instead, I am forced to write a negative public review which I don't normally like to do. We will not be returning as I do not appreciate their lack of customer service and respect for other people's time. I took time off of work and my daughter missed an after-school activity for this appointment. This was a complete waste of time and energy. I don't recommend bringing your kids here if you want a nice experience from start to finish.

She is four years old now and is very comfortable 'going to the dentist'. The office is warm, big prop trees divide the space between the office and the waiting room. There are enough books to keep a small classroom entertained and my daughter felt catered to. The dental hygienist was so kind and offered me a spot to sit to watch my daughter. She asked if they could do X-rays which I agreed to. They were careful to explain how the teeth would eventually push through and at what angles. My daughter was busy watching a movie with provided headphones, so none of the procedures seemed to bother her. After her cleaning, she got to choose a prize and enter into a drawing to win a bicycle. All very exciting to a four year old. She'll look forward to more of the excitement. I had to email their front staff to fill out a form for her TK registration earlier this summer and they replied within four hours of my request. I was impressed with their response time and as a busy mom, I am grateful for the help!

    Absolutely gaslit by a severely misinformed dentist at this office. I went in with a…read morewell-researched plan for my very challenging child that I was hoping to have an open discussion about and instead was gaslit and repeatedly having to defend my stance. 1. Glass ionomer is absolutely a viable option for a tooth with no enamel (as my child has) as a preventative measure/temporary solution, three dentists later and all the ChatGPT and Gemini data I can consume, I was right. It was literally designed to adhere to challenging teeth situations, including my child's, a no enamel tooth (which is actually quite rare, so there probably is some enamel present) and in his case, one that has not fully erupted. The chemical reaction that takes place does not need "hooks" to bond - it literally is an acid-base reaction to either enamel OR dentin creating a true chemical bond and thus a seal to temporarily protect said tooth. Both enamel and dentin contain hydroxyapatite - the key player is Calcium. The polyacrylic acid has negatively charged carboxyl groups that can chelate to calcium ions. So when GIC is placed on the tooth (regardless of whether it is dentin or enamel), the acid conditions the surface, some calcium is available on the surface and the polyacralate chains form ionic bonds with surfac calcium and you get a chemical adhesion layer. Only difference is that with dentin, mineral density is lower, more organic matrix present and more moisture - so while it is a lesser bond, it still absolutely chemically bonds and would give the tooth some protection while we wait for it to fully erupt, for him to mature and hopefully continue work through his gag reflex. Basically buy time. Chemistry was my favorite class. 2. When I say no stainless steel cap or amalgam - I MEAN NO STAINLESS STEAL - and you are also WRONG if you think they do not contain nickel. Nickel is literally the ingredient needed to allow dentists to FORM the cap. It's not for you then to debate me for 10 minutes. I do not want the added release of Nickel into his system, a metal his father has a KNOWN ALLERGY TO. My child already has brain inflammation - I do not need to increase his load. Instead of listening, I was questioned multiple times about "how allergic my husband really is" or my favorite "all my other PANS/PANDAS patients are fine with the stainless steal". DO NOT CARE. Until you hold your child while he is convulsing himself to sleep because his brain is inflamed and his motor tics are out of control, you don't get to push your narrative. I am telling you as his parent what I need from you. Don't gaslight me into something because it is easier and cheaper for you. The rest of the office, awesome - great hygienists, awesome front desk - so sweet, great with kids. If you have a kid with no issues and just regular checkups, probably fine. But if you have a unique situation that requires thoughtful consideration with knowledgeable dentist, I would NEVER take my child back here. He deserves better care and as a parent, I have standards = a dentist who doesn't gaslight and understands the very basics of the treatments they are responsible for giving.

Then this May I started receiving a bill online. The "bill" never provided an explanation as to what exactly they were for. I asked for an itemized bill, in which they could not produce for months. It wasn't until August that someone called me back to tell me verbally what the charges were (x rays that I didn't know my child took), but still nothing on paper and I received a notification every month about my outstanding mysterious balance. In early Nov, they finally produced an itemized bill that I have attached. I'm still not sure why under 3 years old oral evaluation isn't covered by my insurance, but that's what I was told. I paid the statement balance and today, 12/5, I receive yet another notice that I owe $7. There was no explanation, but comparing the two statements, which I have included here, it seems they randomly changed some charges and even added a charge. This is fraud because the last six months they have sent me a different bill this whole time and now all of a sudden after I paid they decided to change the charges with no explanation? It is also harassment to continue to email someone without providing any explanation for the charges. It's their responsibility to make sure the charges are correct and it seems they're just arbitrary at this point. Stay away from this incompetent business.

Might not sound like a big deal, but for the first time I felt like I had a true partner in my child's care, much like his pediatrician.
