Brought my mother to see Dr. Nguyen. He has been so gentle and patient with her. She struggles with anxiety every time we take her to the dentist--for any reason. He helped calm her nerves and took his time to explain the procedure(s) step by step. He will be her dentist for the foreseeable future. Thank you, Dr. Nguyen. read more

If you are in need of dentures, this is the guy to see hands-down the best. I've been to a lot of dentists in my 75 years, but I have not had a better experience than I had at Starbright. read more

I initially went to Star Bright Dental last year to remove a tooth broken off at the gumline. I thought there would be serious problems removing this tooth and another one, This went without any issues and to my relief the procedure was absolutely painless, even after the anesthetic wore off. I was also missing multiple teeth and those that remained were in horrible condition. I saw that Dr Nguyen also did implants. I had been researching implants for quite a while, even considering Las Vegas and Mexico because of pricing. What stopped me was the travel expenses for follow-up visits. I would not be saving any money, I had a lengthy discussion with Dr Nguyen regarding the procedure and decided to go ahead with the implants. Two full arches, both upper and lower. Dr Nguyen explained every step in the process in detail and made me feel very comfortable. I could not be happier with the results. I'm smiling for the first time in years and eating foods I only dreamed about. The entire staff is absolutely wonderful. They treated me more like a friend than a patient. I highly recommend Star Bright and Dr Nguyen for all your dental needs read more

I have been seeing Dr. Nguyen for almost 3 years now. I am not an easy patient. To date, he has replaced four filling and given me three crowns. I have a low pain tolerance, and I am very anxious when I go to dental appointments. Dr. Nguyen has been very patient and kind with me. I find him to be honest, caring and professional. I appreciate that he uses state of the art equipment and is able to clearly explain what work needs to be done and how he will perform it. I have confidence in Dr. Nguyen that he is giving me the correct diagnosis and treatments for my teeth. read more

My review is in response to Dr. Nguyen, he's kind patient and you could tell he cares about his clients. I had a not so great interaction with one of the staff and he called and apologized on her behalf immediately. I have a fear of the dentist but Dr. Nguyen really talks you through each step and makes the process go by smoothly! Thank you Dr.! read more

Dr.Niguyen is by far the best DDS I have ever had. I was in a great deal of jaw pain for years. With a full upper implant the pain is gone! The staff is also just wonerful... read more

Root Canal Procedure!! No Problem!! Professionalism and friendliness of all staff members was FANTASTICTASTIC!! Was it painful? Not at all!! I did take a couple of hours I was continually asked questions concerning my well-being and comfort .. My experience with Star Bright was super . I would recommend anyone with Root-Canal issues to see the good Dr. Nguyen A day later and still NO PAIN!! read more

I've been going through dental issues for the past 8 years. I had 5 different implants done by 3 different dentists which completely destroyed my bite to the point that it collapsed. I was in misery, having spent a fortune on my teeth and not being able to find the right dentist to fix my issues. A good friend in the dental industry referred me to Dr. Alex, she said if anyone can fix your teeth it's him. His consultation was thorough and you could tell right away he had way more knowledge & technique than the other dentist that worked on me. He suggested what I dreaded but knew I had to do, a full mouth reconstruction! It was a bit overwhelming but I felt very confident that he could do what he said he could do (I was scared at the same time because I already went through 3 dentists). It was a tedious 4+ months but Dr. Alex made me his priority. He wanted to make sure I would not be disappointed. His entire staff is incredible, particularly David who stays late or works past lunch with Dr. Alex to work on me! They made sure I was comfortable and if I was in pain they consoled me. They were like my dental family, since I was there average 4hrs/day, 2times a week. Dr. Alex's fees were very reasonable, especially considering how long I had to be there. They never tried to add on fees either, if he wasn't happy with the lab results, he would make them redo the crowns. He's a man of his word and ultimately, I'm super happy with the results. I haven't smiled so much in years! I highly recommend Dr. Alex & his staff! read more

Staff is on point with their reminders, scheduling, and payments. The X-Ray technician was smooth and the experience was painless. Doctor keeps it 100 and seems to really want every day to be a learning experience for his staff and his patients that may be unsatisfactied with prior experience with other dentists. Post-yearly check up, I'm looking forward to another cleaning. Thanks again team. read more

Dr Nguyen is the most knowledgeable doctor I've ever met. I avoided going to the dentist for about a decade due to traumatic experiences with dentist offices as a child. It took me 2 years to build trust with Dr Nguyen but I was consistent as I can be with my appointments, and truly gave him an honest chance. Dr Nguyen takes so much precious time to explain the cause and effect of what's going on, which made it super easy to build trust. I started coming in 2020 thanks to a referral from my mom. I found such value in my teeth and hygiene after making this doctor my primary dentist, that I keep up with my flossing and brushing and not eating hard things that are just not worth my beautiful teeth. I only have to come every 3-6 months now. I try my best to get a cleaning every 3 months and every 6 months the most! I also loveee investing in Dr Nguyen's deep cleanings! Worth it. He's very detailed and mentors his assistants very well. They're all soooo friendly and make you feel soo welcomed. Also, Trina left it seems, and there's a new person working the front. She's such a sweetheart! Had to update my review cuz this place has been so good to me. read more

I was searching for a dentist close to home that did implants. I found Star Bright Dental and made an appointment. I canceled my first appointment as I was scared. I did make a second appointment and went in. I wanted dental implant for my lower denture. It caused me so much pain and embarrassment. Dr. Nguyen was fabulous!!' Extremely knowledgeable and the very first visit he reassured me that he could help me. I scheduled my appointment while in spring break. Absolutely amazing!!! Yes, the first few days I was uncomfortable but not in agonizing pain. I went back on the follow up and he did some adjustments and it was ten times better!!! I would totally recommend this dental office. His main tech David, was so knowledgeable and helpful! Yes, a tad expensive but you get what you pay for!!! Please give them your business. You will not regret it!! read more

Star Bright Dental - Dr. Alex working very hard.... - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Westminster, California

Very nice experience with the hygienist and radiologist. I highly recommend going to this this dentist located in Westminster!!!

Very grateful for the help of Dr. Nguyen and his staff. I've been hesitant to go to the dentist for some time now but I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience. Truly, you couldn't be in better hands! He recently took out my wisdom teeth for me, I was nervous at first but he makes sure you are comfortable every step of the way, even took the time to give me a call a few days after the procedure to check in on me. If you are thinking about getting dental work done I couldn't recommend a better office. read more

Great place. They really work with you. Also great with kids, my daughter is usually afraid of dentists but the dentist there explains step by step on what's up next and it was a great experience for my daughter. Office staff are great too very friendly and helpful. read more

Wow! The doctor is very knowledgeable, he performs surgery and a bone graft on my broken tooth in extraction in 1 hour without pain and I can drive home easily. I was surprised that the surgery go so smoothly. I am now confortable at home comfortable waiting for 2 weeks of removing some stitches. Now the second part of the implant. He explained it very scientifically and logically and I want to do it right away but I have to check out my budget! I hope I can continue with this office. This is my first time and I am so impressed with this dentist graduate from the University, famous Columbia university. I wish He could have big locations and parking and hope his talent will help him achieve his endeavors at a good price to help more people... read more

Pros: no pain, no sensitivity, dedicated dentist, very conscientious. Xray is doing at the chair, no need to go other room. Cons: the fee is a bit more expensive than other places. 1. Filling: The dentist Dr Nguyen does it very gently. I was surprise because it doesn't hurt at all. The dentist is always sure that those teeth are completely numb before proceeding. After done, the dentist showed me the pictures of my teeth so I could see before and after. 2. Deep clean: my teeth have a lot of limescale so I have to do a deep clean. The dentist is also dedicated to numbing my teeth before proceeding. The hygienist is very nice, and friendly. After done with the machine, she also clean one more time by hand that makes more clean. After finishing, she also taught me how to properly care and clean my teeth. 3. Root canal: It sounds horrible, but actually NO PAIN at all. During the procedure, the only thing make me uncomfortable is the noise of the machine running. However, the most important thing is NO PAIN. Dr Nguyen does the job very carefully and meticulously. For me, it is hard to find a dentist with a good heart. I love this place and highly recommend to anyone who are scare to go to the dentist like me before. read more

Just got my wisdom teeth taken out, without general anesthesia! Only local! I was super nervous the whole week before the procedure but the doctor prescribed me triazolam to take an hour before the procedure and it helped relax me! He checks up on you and makes sure youre comfortable during the procedure! read more

Dr.Alex is taking great care of my teeth! He is not in my insurance network, but I don't want to leave. I totally agree with Trisha now, his skill is very good. He patiently explained how he could help with my toothache. Plus, I always feel welcome, very comfortable when I come here, which I can hardly find anywhere else. Many thanks to everyone working here. I appreciate all of your hard work, everyone. Wishing Dr.Alex's office a great Tiger year 2022!

I went to starbright dental on April 1st, 2023 hoping to get a partial made in 30 days for my daughter's wedding. Sure enough they're done in 30 days and they look great and I'm very happy with them. The office is busy and very effective and Theresa at the front desk is very kind. The dentist and his assistants are very professional that made you feel at ease. I guess I just got lucky and walked into the right office and I highly recommend them. read more

I recently had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed, and I am extremely pleased with the work and service that I received at Star Bright Dental. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, which made this process less daunting. Dr. Nguyen was very thorough and meticulous from the beginning to the end of the process. He definitely knows what he's doing, as he talks you through the procedure while consistently checking up on you to make sure you're doing alright! I felt like I was in good hands and will be making him my go-to dentist from now on. Thank you Dr. Nguyen and the amazing staff at Star Bright Dental!!! :) read more

I have never been so disappointed in a business before. The receptionist Sigrid treated my family member less important, she seemed like she favored the Asian patients and treated them better than us. She was being chatty with the asian patients and ignoring us. She wouldn't even look up at us while she was talking to us. Then when she finally needed to tell us something she shouted across the room out loud so everyone can hear our business. Absolutely no privacy and super unprofessional. We were left shocked by her behavior towards us that we decided to cancel and leave. We are going to be looking for another dentist office, we will not be supporting this business anymore. Go here if you want your business shouted to everyone in the waiting room. read more

Im recommending this dentist. He is such a perfectionist and will also explain in detail your treatment plan. why it's needed etc. I'm normally super scared of the dentist and had awful teeth . he has healed my teeth and we are in the process of restoring my smile. i have had little to implant procedure done with no complications and little to no pain! i had a bone graft done by a previous dentist and they left me In worse conditions . Dr Nguyen did the same procedure but it actually has improved my gums and I can even see a different to the outside of my face is fuller. i love it. Just follow after cafe carefully and you will be good I recommend this place for small things to implants. thanks read more

Repost since they deleted my review. Stay away from this dentistry. They tried to sell me on an srp that I did not want and dr nguyen would not take no for an answer. I literally felt like u was being forced to start treatment as he kept talking and wouldn't let me leave. They also sent an pre authorization when I told them not too. Money hungry passive aggressive dentist. read more

I would not recommend this dental practice. They try to take advantage of you and if I hadn't done my research and gotten a second opinion I might have fallen for it. That is why I am writing this review to warn other people of their manipulative practices. There were several red flags: 1. When I called to schedule the appointment, I asked if I should have my previous dentist's office send in my X-rays and records. He said no that they would do everything there. This is a red flag because how would he be able to track problems or look for changes in my teeth without my previous records? 2. I had my X-rays taken when I arrived but then had to sit in the dentist's chair for 45+ minutes waiting for my cleaning and then when Dr. Nguyen did the cleaning, it was by far the fastest cleaning I've ever had and he didn't even floss! 3. Dr. Nguyen said I had 8 cavities and would need fillings and sealer. He said that my health insurance would only cover the fillings and so I would have to pay $1080 out of pocket for the sealer! After reading other 1 star reviews for this place I noticed that other people complained about this too and that the sealer is actually cosmetic tooth fillers. And like those other reviews Dr. Nguyen would not just do the necessary fillings. I also was very skeptical about this because I go to the dentist every 6 months for routine cleanings except for the past year when my dentist appointment was cancelled due to covid restrictions in March. Also, the teeth that he said had "cavities" I was already aware of and previous dentists have had no concerns and said it was some staining. I got a second opinion on Dr. Nguyen's "treatment plan" and the other dentist said that I had NO CAVITIES. He also said that Dr. Nguyen's plan for doing a SRP (scaling and root planing) was completely unnecessary and invasive since I do not have deep pockets. Furthermore, he noted that $135 per tooth for sealant is outrageous. I have to clarify that Dr. Nguyen was not talking about sealant but sealer, which is again a cosmetic filler. Dr. Nguyen said that "I was too old for sealant" and that was why he wouldn't do that, but instead a sealer. This is a complete lie since the other dentist office I went to said I can get sealant to prevent cavities, I would just have to pay out of pocket since insurance only covers it for children. 4. They charge $25 for a email copy of your xrays. The previous dentist office I went to when I called for a copy of my records they emailed it 5 minutes later and at no charge. I had to call Trina 3 TIMES for her to send me a copy after I had already paid the $25! And not only that, they only gave me partial records and I had to email and call back several times for them to send me the additional pictures. After mistakenly sending me pictures of SOMEONE ELSE'S TEETH, I finally got mine. It is under HIPAA law that you can get a copy of your health records in a timely manner. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this place until they learn how to be a trustworthy and honest dentistry office. Thank you. read more

I first went here to get my wisdom teeth removed since they didn't do that at my original dentist i used to go to. From the first time i visited for a wisdom teeth consultation to the second time i came for the wisdom teeth removal - and now, for a follow up to remove the stitches, every experience with Star bright has been nothing short of PHENOMENAL!! The staff is the nicest and friendliest staff I've ever met. The doctor especially is really thoughtful. I had my wisdom teeth removed on Christmas Eve, and on Christmas, he called to make sure i was doing okay taking my medications. I could write a whole lot more on why Star bright is the best dentist place I've ever been to (and I've moved around a lot), but I'll leave it at this: they got me as their customer for life. read more

I was here for a cleaning and wisdom tooth extraction because my wisdom teeth was hurting so much. But Doctor Cuong was super nice and friendly and he made sure that it didn't hurt at all after the procedure. He was great at tooth extractions and extremely knowledgeable in his profession. I will be recommending this place to more of my friends! read more

I drive an hour just to see Dr. Nguyen. I became a patient of his 2 years ago. I spent 10 years refusing to see a dentist due to fears and anxiety from past dental visits. Dr. Nguyen listened to me and patiently explained his procedures step by step. I spent hours in his chair completely comfortable and absent of any pain. Along with his chair side manner, he is a perfectionist. He took the time he needed to perform meticulous work on my teeth. His work is top notch! Also, Dr. Nguyen is complimented with an incredibly kind and knowledgeable team that relentlessly works to ensure my treatments are covered by my insurance. read more

I had my wisdom teeth removed here and my mom also got her implants done. Doctor Cuong and his whole team really went above and beyond on what they charged for, just to make sure we got nothing but the best. One of my wisdom teeth was a complicated case, it took the doctor a lot extra time to completely take it out. He literally had to remove it little by little and put me back and forth to the X-ray room to insure the whole process is going in the right direction. A lot extra work for him, but no extra charges for me. I do really appreciate the check up callings from the doctor himself about my healing process. That's how you can tell if someone is passionate about his job, and really cares for his individual clients. Thank you Star Bright Dental team! read more

My first time here at Star Bright Dental and I liked a lot. Great customer service, clean, friendly, pleasant and more importantly I've learned a lot from Dr. Nguyen. Especially the whole perspective of learning, maintaining and caring about your teeth. I'm definitely not a big fan of going to the dentist, anxiety is off the roof. But this place, everyone made me feel calm, relax and at ease during my visit. I would definitely recommend to everyone who is looking for a dentist that actually do care. Just wanted to say thank you to Dr. Nguyen and his team, Johnathan, David and Tina for all your services and how wonderful you guys are. Thanks for making me smile with confidence;) read more
