I had a great experience with Smile Builder Dental and Dr. Myung Kee Park. After having braces with a different orthodontist just prior to my experience with Smile Builder, my teeth shifted again within a matter of weeks despite faithfully wearing my retainer. I wanted to correct the movement with clear aligners rather than going through braces again. After about a year of treatment, I couldn't be happier with the results. Looking back after experiencing both traditional braces and Invisalign, I believe Invisalign was the better choice for me. I also wish I had gone directly to Smile Builder Dental from the beginning. In hindsight, I feel it may have saved me time, discomfort, and expense. Most importantly, my experience here gave me confidence that I was receiving thoughtful, patient-centered care every step of the way. From my very first visit, everyone at Smile Builder Dental was welcoming, friendly, and professional. The entire team made every appointment a pleasant experience, and I always felt that they genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome. I documented my progress with weekly photos throughout treatment, and near the end I had questions about the position of one lower incisor. Dr. Park took the time to carefully review my concerns, explain why the final trays intentionally overcorrect rotation before the teeth naturally settle, and answer every question without ever making me feel rushed. I truly appreciated his patience, honesty, and conservative approach. It was clear that he was focused on achieving the best long-term result rather than simply finishing treatment as quickly as possible. The digital scanning process for my retainers was fast, comfortable, and seamless, and I left feeling confident that my smile was in great hands. I am truly grateful to Dr. Park and the entire Smile Builder Dental team for their exceptional care, professionalism, and attention to detail. Whether you're considering orthodontic treatment for the first time or need to correct teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment, I highly recommend Smile Builder Dental. Thank you, Dr. Park and the wonderful staff, for giving me a smile that I'm proud to keep for years to come. read more

At the arrival we had indicated that we were set up for a cleaning at the same time. I verified multiple occasions and a multiple occasions they verified by that they did have indeed time. However, then they told me after the fact when I had no ride that they were not going to be able to finish. We scheduled the appointment on Wednesday because the office closed late on that day. If we would have known from the beginning we would have decided to cancel or take our business elsewhere. Now I have to go through the hassle of by contacting my insurance company. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS DENTIST! I was sent here as a referral to have a root canal, since my dentist does not perform that service. This dentist at Smile Builder didn't bother to do an X-ray on my tooth before working on it, which should've been done because maybe you would've discovered my tooth was cracked! So I was charged $497.50 for an incomplete job since you waited too long to get an image of my tooth. After 45 minutes of drilling the dentist said he couldn't do a root canal on it because it was cracked. I PAID $497 FOR THEM TO TELL ME THEY COULDN'T DO A ROOT CANAL! 2 weeks later I went to Grandview Endodontics and they charged $60 for an X-Ray BEFORE working on my tooth. Why couldn't you guys do that??? Now my insurance is maxed out because of this "incomplete job." Terrible business. Don't go here. Go to Grandview instead. read more

Caution: Photo may be disturbing. Discretion advised. This was the result of probable unskilled handling during an oral surgery to excavate a (single) broken molar. The procedure lasted over an hour with the dentist taking breaks in between while local anesthesia was administered continually. The impact from repeated slipping of instrument jabbing and stabbing the area around my broken tooth was never met with any sensitivity or empathy. There was zero acknowledgment let alone apologies. As a helpless patient I was fully trusting and completely in surrender to the dentist. Realizing my injuries were unusual, my remarks to the dentist were simply ignored. The recovery was lengthy and experience was traumatic. read more

Every time I visit, everything is explained in detail, all the staff and dentists are friendly, and I am very satisfied with my treatment.

I had to have some major dental work done. Smile Builders has been amazing throughout the process. Dr. Rivero is super understanding, gentle, and knowledgeable. Made sure I got the care I needed. Dr. Park, while I've only seen once so far, was kind, helpful, and also knew exactly how to help. The front desk staff is friendly, helpful, and knows your name when you walk in the door. They do a great job handily the insurance side of things and are very nice. The dental hygienist is super nice as well, the dentist office is no one's favorite place to be, but they make it a pleasant experience. read more

Recently I had the good fortune of discovering Smile Builder Dental near my home in Riverside. CA. In addition to the convenience of close proximity I quickly realized that professional dental care for the full scope of my dental needs would be addressed and provided. My major impression with the dental clinic was how comfortable I was made to feel covering the whole range of options and procedures that I could easily understand; and ultimately be a better caretaker of my teeth and gums. The attention I received from everyone at Smile Builder Dental made all the difference in the world. I am for the first time in my life "looking forward to going to the dentist." read more

First came here a few months ago due to pain associated with one of my wisdom teeth. Now after that was taken care of, I made sure to keep coming back here for my dental needs. Professional staff, clean environment, and great work. I'll definitely keep coming back for all future needs. read more

It's been over a year since I got my bottom wisdom teeth out at this dentist! Posting this because I know a year ago I was panicking about Dr. Park and if I would lose nerve feeling in my jaw after this procedure! Never fear you are in good hands at this dentist for wisdom teeth removal! They keep you awake which can be scary, but you'll be fine! I have been wanting to take my teeth out and see them just because I'm fascinated by teeth, but I was always really scared of the cutting open of my gums and such. Dr. Park also draws blood to heal your gums (? Don't quote me on that LOL). Don't worry though! I also only give 4 stars because I remember that the assistant dropped about 2-3 things which is kinda gross, but I survived it! Lol read more

This is a great little dental office in Mission Grove area. I think they're the sister office of the Mission Grove Dentistry which is also rated highly in the area. But this new place is closer to me and open on Fridays. The place is new and clean. Everyone there is very nice and professional. Administrative personnel (Michelle) is prompt to paperwork, go over insurance coverage, clearly list out and explained any dental plan/cost. X-ray technician is patience and make you feel comfortable for each image taken. Hygienist (Amanda) patiently and carefully examines and cleans every single one of your teeth and gum. Dr. Park goes over the x-ray result with you in detail and address any dental work and concerns you might need/have. This is an excellent team and I'm so glad to have found such a superb one near me. One thing though, they only except PPO I think. But in my experience, all the good ones only except PPO and don't want to deal with the HMO insurance claim process and hassle. read more

Wonderful staff, always friendly and my dental services are always professional and painful. Highly recommend this dental office

I haven't been to the dentist in quite a while and was a little hesitant at first but from the beginning to end I have to say that I'm super happy that I came in for a cleaning. From the sweet and funny ladies at the reception area to the x-ray tech and the dentist himself, they have all been super sweet and thorough. They didn't try to "upsell" me on anything or unneeded treatment. They have great pricing and all the staff has been wonderful!! Highly recommend them!! read more

Over time, Amber and Dr. Park stopped nagging me and started complimenting me because they could see that I was cleaning my teeth pretty well. They are actually nice people that provide excellent, friendly dental care and service. However, the dental service is very expensive for the uninsured, even with the Quality Care Membership. After I used up the two dental cleanings covered by the Quality Care Membership, I had an additional cleaning, which cost me $95 after 50% off. Then, I learned that the Quality Care Membership expires on the first of the month that I had enrolled in the previous year and that "any renewal after the 30 day mark will be subject to additional $25." Since I first enrolled in late February 2022, I will not even have had the Quality Care Membership plan for a full twelve months. I do not remember if they disclosed that to me when I first enrolled. They want you to keep subscribing to their Quality Care Membership. Somehow, I feel like Smile Builder was playing games to suck more money out of me, so I won't be going back. Enough is enough. read more
