After coming across the other review listed about Dr. Yang's office, I read it and felt compelled…read moreto share our experience. We've been a patient of Dr. Yang's (and her office) for over 10 years now - starting with our oldest child which just so happens to have special needs. From the very first appointment with her, to our most recent first time appointment with our youngest who turned 2 back in the Spring, we have never experienced anything like what was mentioned in the other review, more specifically it's been quite the opposite. Dr. Yang (who is amazing) and her staff that we have consistently seen since we've been going there have always been patient, calm and at any point whenever any of our children have had issues of possible tears from a first time appointment or having a loose tooth come out, they go above and beyond to turn the situation around and make sure the child is comfortable and not afraid. They often do funny or silly things like let the kids use the water tool to squirt water or say funny rhymes to keep the kids laughing and comfortable and to lighten the whole experience of going to a dentist which can be a bit scary, especially for first time patients who are often as young as 2. Maybe the hygienist mentioned was just temporary or it was an off day but I can attest our 4 kids going there and us never experiencing that in all the years we've be a patient of Dr. Yang's. I realize everyone can have a different experience or different circumstance, so that is why I felt it was important to share ours.

We visited Dr. Yang for my son's first dentist appointment when he was 2 and a second 6 months…read morelater. Dr. Yang was very nice and I liked her. The office was clean and the train table in the waiting room was a big hit with my son. I wasn't sure what to expect from a first dentist appointment, but I think I was anticipating a very laid back first appointment. It was not. While the hygienist was very thorough, she moved through the introduction of tools VERY quickly and then asked me to hold him down so she could delve right in within about 90 seconds. My son is not the type to be scared or cry at the doctor. He's had stitches in his face without a tear. But the speed of the exam was jarring to him and pretty soon he was crying. Rather than stopping the hygienist continued to speed through it and kept saying, "I like it when you cry, that helps me clean all the teeth in the very back too!" I found that an insensitive thing to say, but we gave them another shot since I did like Dr. Yang. After the second appointment when my son was older and more experienced I didn't anticipate any tears. When the same hygienist sped through the appointment and said, again, when he started crying, "I like it when you cry!" I realized this was not going to be a good fit. I appreciate that they are doing a thorough exam, but the experience felt more intense than it needed to be and I worry it's the kind of early dental experience that could cause a future fear of the dentist if we continued there. Today I took him to my dentist and they took their time with him AND completed a thorough exam and he didn't shed a tear and sat in the chair himself without being held down. I understand they have certain procedures and maybe speeding through checkups and holding kids down works for some kids, but not all children will react well to this. For my son it was just too much.

I blame COVID for keeping me away from a dentist for so long (and not my tendency to procrastinate…read moreon teeth cleanings). But this was recently remedied with a visit to my new dentist, Dr. Moldoveanu at Modern Family Dentistry. I was able to schedule an appointment about a month from when I first called, and to the office's credit, they called and texted me a couple of times when cancellations popped up. I didn't have to wait for my appointment to start when I showed up on the day of my appointment. Dr. Moldoveanu did my cleaning and exam -- plus he's a fan of Harry Potter, which we talked about in between me having his hands in my mouth and him working diligently to clean my pearly whites. I was told my appointment would last an hour, which it did. I appreciate that accuracy considering I needed to get home to relieve my babysitter. This is also a small office, with the dentist and two additional, friendly staff members. It was clear that they all work well together. I unfortunately have one cavity, which I will have to go back for later this month. But I take comfort knowing that my teeth are in the care of such a capable office.

After a first horrible experience as a child, I've been terrified of the dentist my whole life. I…read morefinally worked up the nerve to look for a dentist after a 5 year hiatus and another bad experience. I'm so glad I found Modern Family. Kind and gentle, very understanding of my fears and best of all, he did a beautiful job fixing the large chip in my front tooth. A big relief to smile freely again. No pain during any of the work and no pain the following day. I'll never go anywhere else. Thank you, Dr. Andrei!
