Dr. Kwong - Urban Dentist, office, Richmond, BC
Gregory M.

Just had my cleaning done here at Dr.Kwong's dental office in Richmond. Terrific dentist and staff. Frida the hygienist is very gentle, and my check up went great. Had implant surgery here last January, and it was virtually pain-free with a 100% satisfactory result. My wife spent 12 years as both a CDA and a Dental sales rep, and she also rates Dr. Kwong as one of the best and most skilled dentists she's ever known. Tip: 2 free parking spots right in front of the office.

Dr. Kwong and his friendly crew!

The entire team here is incredible. Dr. Diya is SO good with her patients. And she explains…read moreeverything to the parents. She's patient and so kind. We will not go anywhere else. The amount of work my daughter has had on her teeth she should be scared to go to the dentist. She loves seeing Dr. Diya and the hygienists. I can't rave enough about this place. Dr. Diya's caring personality does not go unnoticed. Thank you for just being you.

We brought in our 5 year-old son for a consultation to fix his 8 cavities (yes, we're not good…read morebrushers/flossers) after his general dentist said that he's not experienced enough with young kids. We brought in X-rays, and Dr. Chander maybe spent a minute with us telling what he would do - fix all either with laughing gas or send us to another specialist to fix all at one time under general anesthetic and then he left. We then spent the next 10 minutes talking to the manager about payment options. When I questioned why we couldn't ask for a treatment plan without laughing gas or general anesthetic, the answer I got was, "well, the doctor probably thought he's uncooperative". Since we were uncomfortable with the treatment plan offered, we consulted yet another dentist, and there, the dentist spent 10-15 minutes during the consultation meeting check each tooth over and also testing our son's patience in the chair, needless to say, we went to this dentist to fix his teeth. I have no problems with dental practices needing to make money (especially if they have a fancy waiting room and staff that don't hate you when you walk in). I can also rationalize exceptionally good dentists charging above what is recommended by the provincial dental pay scale (they also will demand the difference between what your insurance pays and what they charge even for a consultation), but what I have a problem with is when a PEDIATRIC dental practice has no desire to determine a child's comfort level in the chair BEFORE recommending a treatment plan. Our son has seen quite a few doctors and specialists and has had a few exams with various machines, and the conclusion after all these exams is how calm he is - in fact, where he got his teeth fixed, he was even used as the example by the parent of a screaming child of how to behave at a dentist's office. Boy, this has turned into a very long review, but we saw the positive reviews from other patients and thought we might be able to get the same - a meaningful consultation with a pediatric dental specialist that would know how to deal with children without having to resort to rendering them dazed and confused. We didn't get that, and in fact, the only thing we did get was a bad taste in our mouths.

It is very hard to find a good dentist these days. I should know, as I've been tricked by many to…read moreget my teeth done only to have it come out worse than before. dr young is very nice and knows exactly what he's doing. he'll tell you exactly when you should hurt when he's cleaning your teeth or doing a filling. my kids have been seeing a dentist since they were 1 and 2-3 years later, they have a mouthful of cavities even though they brush and floss everyday. I was very mad with the other dentist for not telling us about flouride and toothpaste. (We had been using a non-flouride one.) He suggested we go see a pediatric dentist for surgery. In the end, we saw 4 different dentists for second opinions and they all insisted to put the kids to sleep so they could work on their teeth. We finally found dr young who told us there was no need to put them to sleep and that we could wait a year or so when they are older so they can sit still for a filling. He was very thorough and we were very happy. he is very good with kids and was even able to get my 4 year old to sit still long enough to get his teeth cleaned. He talks a lot and he loves giving out dental facts and explanations, but he is a wonderful dentist.

A dentist that really cares how your child feels. First; I…read moremet Dr. Ban at Children Hospital and he took care of Keenan; my first child back in 2008 and years after that. Only the best dentist can work at Children's Hospital; so for me it was a good place to start. Keenan was seen at Children's Hospital for awhile and later when Dr. Ban opened his practice "Little Smiles Dental Centre" I couldn't be happier! I have two children now Keenan born in 2007 and Branden born in 2010; both my kids are his patients. Dr. Ban has treated my kids from full on Dental Surgery to Crowns to Cavities in my kids. The experience not only with Dr. Ban but with his staff is wonderful; starting from a receptionist that always receive us with a smile and send e-mails with reminders so we don't forgot our appointments to great dental hygienist that are trained to care and entertain the kids while they clean their teeth. While the kids teeth are cleaned, or done any work to them the kids have movies to pick from many to watch from an I-pad over their heads comfortably so they keep their minds off of what is getting done. Branden had a cavity filling yesterday and he didn't even notice what was done to him. I tell about Dr. Ban to all my friends all the time because I know how my kids feel while at his office and after leaving his office. My kids always bring home stickers for being brave, new too brushes and dental floss to keep their teeth healthy. But mostly important they bring home a sense of care and fun they had at the dentist. I won't say no to my kids having some sweets here and there so I better have an EXCELENT dentist for them. Thank you Dr. Ban; you ROCK! We love you and will see you for many years to come.

This dentist charges twice the rate recommended by the BCDA so your insurance may not cover much…read more They also put sealant on my childs tooth and in the next appointment found a cavity under the sealant then tried to charge over 400 to fill the cavity without mentioning that the cavity was under a sealant that they had placed. Very unethical. Be careful with this place and don't be afraid to get a second opinion. There are lots of other dentists around.
