Dr. Leong made me feel comfortable right away and explained everything very clearly so I could understand my options. I've been to many different dentists here on the island, but I can honestly say he's the best dentist I've seen. A lot of dentists make you feel like they only care about the money, but Dr. Leong truly listened to my concerns and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable throughout the treatment. His assistant, Trisha, was also amazing while assisting him during my procedure. The whole experience felt very reassuring and professional. Thank you to Dr. Leong and the team for making what could have been a stressful visit such a comfortable one.

Rica, who was my dental hygienist that day did a great job cleaning my teeth and had informed me about the areas that required aggressive cleaning. She thoroughly cleaned and to best of her ability. She was also gentle when flossing my teeth.

My experience at Dr Leongs office was great and look forward to returning for another cleaning. Thank you guys so much!

The office is small, quiet, clean. The front desk person has always been fantastic: friendly, engaged, and helpful.

This office is great in keeping up with digital dentistry - my crown was perfect and ready in 2 hours. No temporary or 2nd appointment to come back. Also my teenager is almost done with his clear aligner treatment and my toddler loves coming to his routine check up. The office staff is all very friendly and caring. Happy Holidays and we will see you next year! :)

    I went in for a consultation with Dr. Wynn and unfortunately, left feeling pretty disappointed with…read morethe experience. I was scheduled for 9:00 AM and was told over the phone that the consultation would be about an hour. I was expecting to meet with Dr. Wynn and discuss my concerns and treatment options directly with him. Instead, I spent almost two hours speaking exclusively with the practice manager and never actually got to meet or speak with the doctor. The practice manager was very friendly and talkative, which I initially appreciated because it made the environment feel comfortable. However, the appointment consisted of a LOT of stories about the philosophy of the office, and other patients and I felt like I left with less clarity than I expected from a cosmetic dental consultation. I originally went in primarily concerned about two teeth and was interested in exploring composite bonding, along with some whitening. During the conversation, I was told that I would need at least six veneers. I understand that a cosmetic dentist may have professional recommendations and that veneers may ultimately be the better option in some cases, but I'm not sure what qualifications or clinical assessment were being used to make that determination, especially since I had not yet been evaluated by Dr. Wynn. When I questioned why six would be necessary when I was originally concerned about two teeth, the explanation I was given was essentially that once you have two "perfect" teeth, you will start noticing everything else that is wrong with your smile, so it would be better to do everything at once. That explanation did not really address my concerns or explain why six veneers were clinically necessary for me. I had other questions and concerns about veneers in general, and some of the responses came across more like "well my veneers look great" rather than addressing my individual concerns as a patient. It felt like more of a sales pitch than an actual professional discussion. The pricing also made the experience more difficult. I was being quoted at least $12,000-15,000 for the veneers I apparently desperately need, along with an initial $2,200 for diagnostics, so I would have expected a consultation with the actual dentist and a clear clinical explanation of why that treatment was necessary before discussing such a significant financial commitment. Ultimately, I had to leave after almost two hours because I had somewhere else to be, meaning I never even got the opportunity to speak with the doctor I had scheduled the consultation with. I'm sure this office has many happy patients, and I appreciated the friendliness of the staff, especially the receptionist! However, based on my experience, I personally did not feel that the consultation met my expectations. I would have preferred a more focused appointment, less pressure around treatment choices, and most importantly, the opportunity to actually meet with and be evaluated by the dentist before being told what treatment I needed.

    I am so thankful for Dr. Okuda. Dr. Okuda is THE best dentist. I've had braces twice and have had…read morehorrible dental issues my whole life. I have never felt so confident in my dentist and his team, I cannot thank Dr. Okuda for transforming my smile and for making me feel more confident. First off, the office is immaculate, clean and so well put together. The entire team is on it and are always attentive, present and genuine. Dr. Okuda's office staff and team are the best. They truly treated me like family, even when I first came into their office for a consultation. I never felt pushed to get any treatments, I felt like Dr. Okuda and his team were genuine from day one about what could make my smile better. Even after my procedure, Dr. Okuda encouraged me that just the small and slight tweak we did with my gumline was enough to transform my smile - and he told me in his honest opinion, that's all he'd want to do to improve my smile and to keep everything else for it made me "me". I also got into a horrible surfing accident earlier this year before proceeding with my procedure - Dr. Okuda had me immediately come in to examine my teeth and my huge lip laceration and he told me he'd prefer to wait until my laceration healed. Not only did he fit me into his busy schedule immediately, Dr. Okuda genuinely cared about my well being and didn't want to rush my procedure. Professionalism. Honesty. Kindness. And the best taste. I trust Dr. Okuda and would highly recommend him to any of my friends or family for any cosmetic dental needs and inquiries.

He replaced my old silver filling then created a beautiful crown for that tooth within hours. I like how he asked what my future intentions were on whitening my teeth. This is how he determined what shade of whiteness the crown would be. Office ladies at the front were again kind, welcoming, patient in scheduling my follow-up. They also made sure I was aware about my insurance coverage and my out-of-pocket expense. I really appreciated their honesty. If you're looking for a great dentist, go see Dr. Kuioka for your dental needs and general dentistry, and you'll walk out of there extremely impressed!!

From the moment I called, the team treated me with empathy and zero judgment. At my visit, the front desk was warm and organized, the hygienist was gentle yet meticulous, and Dr. Kuioka was exceptional. He took time to listen, walked me through what he was seeing and why, offered options without any pressure, and checked in frequently to make sure I was comfortable. The technology is modern, the office feels calm, and the entire appointment was smoother and more comfortable than I imagined possible. I left with a clear plan, confidence to follow through, and genuine gratitude. If you have anxiety about dental care--or you've been avoiding it--do yourself a favor and book with Dr. Kuioka. Compassionate, professional, and truly patient-centered. Highly recommend.
