I had always intentionally chosen…read moredark lip colors for contrast and avoided nude lipsticks, no matter how much I liked them, because my teeth were dark and nude shades would make them look even darker. Now, with the beautiful porcelain veneers designed by cosmetic dentist Dr. Beau, I can wear any lip color I want, or even no lipstick at all, with complete confidence. That confidence is truly life changing. Thank you, Dr. Beau!

I got porcelain veneers done with Da Vinci Dental and I honestly thank Beau and Andrew every single day for the professional and high quality work they did for me. It's such a fantastic feeling when you smile into the mirror every morning and love what you see. Da Vinci dental was able to bring that confidence for me and I am very very happy I chose to go with their clinic. First off, Beau and Andrew are extremely knowledgeable in the field of cosmetic dentistry. They are extremely professional and the office staff and ambience in general is very welcoming. They stand by you in every step of the process to ensure you're having the smoothest experience possible. As an attorney, my schedule is very busy and it was somewhat difficult for me to take days off to appear for the procedure I wanted to get done. When putting in my temporary veneers, Beau was extremely accommodating, much more so than I ever expected. Due to my busy schedule, I was only available on a Friday, a day in which the clinic is usually closed, but Beau agreed to do the work for me on a Friday after I was off from work to make it so that there's less issues with my schedule. I arrived after work and Beau was able to place all of my temporary veneers on that same day. After doing so, he provided me with his phone number and told me to text or call him at any time if I have any questions or concerns, or issues. This level of care and service went above and beyond my expectations, and I am extremely thankful for the accommodating service, professionalism, and high quality of work that I received from Da Vinci Dental. This clinic is arguably the top-rated cosmetic dental clinic in the Pacific Northwest, if not on the entire west coast. Their reviews really do speak for themselves. Thank you so much again!

So long story short, my husband and I now go to him for all our dentals needs. Today I met dr jiwon, my husband and I went there personally because we were already in the building so might as well schedule a dentist cleaning, I had a chipped off tooth which I just discovered last week, dr jiwon had a cancellation and I was lucky I was able to get in, or else me and my chipped off tooth will be seeing him sept 18 , so I took it,he did such a good job and I'm happy with his work! I'm so impressed and he also knew about my dental phobia which I told dr gelb as well and handles it the same way, non judge-mental and reassuring me. the front desk people Laura and Megan are very helpful and equally amazing! Laura was so helpful to research about my questions about our insurance coverage! If you need good service and best dentists! Try this place, you won't regret it and you'll be so happy with the results!

    Here's the TLDR version: Convenient off highway, easy…read moreparking, great care & oral health edu, & overall really lovely people I thoroughly enjoyed. Out of 5 stars, I give them 10. A bit more detail: Best dental experience I've had. What warm & lovely people. They felt more like new friends I wanted to get to know than new medical providers. If you are concerned about PPE & clean air, this is a good fit (with one caveat, explained below, related to insurance). I'm medically vulnerable learned about them in a group others practicing a higher level of covid competence. The practice has a one patient policy, so I was the only patient in office. They leave time between patients to filter air before the next person arrives. Once inside, I was offered a brief but thoughtful tour. They both wore PPE, including n95's (3M Aura) + surgical masks over the n95, a face shield, gown, & gloves as needed. The office was shiny, spotless. The actual treatment room had a HEPA filter immediately next to the patient chair. I think Lelah said that they have other HEPA's in the office. This practice is the only medical or dental practice I've been to that considers past medical trauma, fear of dental work, & how to intentionally engage the nervous system so that the experience is less stressful. I don't really have a problem w/ dental work, but the attention to keeping stress down was really great for other concerns I had. As an OT with an interest in mental health and sensory processing, I was impressed. (A few examples: 1) a weighted blanket, 2) Lelah tapped my arm inviting me to keep my attention on the tapping sensation as the needle was placed for anesthesia...as an OT with sensory training, I considered what was happening in the nervous system with this & was delighted that they'd even consider it, 3) monitor to watch Netflix which I didn't use but was available, 4) just an overall presence of warmth, caring, kindness, & undivided attention...which makes a big difference to the nervous system.) As someone who is medically fragile and has been really harmed by the covid pandemic (and the lack of public response to it), I've felt unsafe seeing many of my providers. Most just don't seem to be keeping up to date with the silent damage even a super mild covid infection can and has done to many of us. Dr. Samsavar & Lelah were aware that our community has experienced this & offered a space that felt very safe for me, & in the process, I received a better oral health edu than I have in the past. Having Lelah, a pharmacist, was a notable bonus. When businesses are a family affair, it seems quite natural that they're run w/ more heart and this was apparent. And, with her pharmacy background, she could easily answer questions about my meds impact on oral health. In terms of physical accessibility, the building was almost immediately off the highway and has its own lot with very easy parking. I walked up a small hill with a fairly short distance to get to the door of their building, but I'm almost 100% that I saw elevators in the parking area that can assist someone who needs to avoid that hill. The walk from the building door to their office was short as well, at least from where I entered (less than a 30s walk). The one caveat I have is both a pro and a con, depending on each persons life circumstances. They are a "pay out-of-pocket" provider and are not in-network as contracted with insurance. They will, however, send your claim in for partial reimbursement of eligible expenses directly to you, after you pay for their services in full. (Call your insurance first, as different policies will allow for varying reimbursement levels of eligible expenses.) The reality is, if they were contracted to be in-network, they would have an insurance company dictating to them how they can practice & likely have much lower reimbursement which wouldn't allow them to offer such attentive and compassionate care. So, while I did end up paying quite a bit more than I would have had I gone in-network, I had a far more positive experience. An increasing number of providers are heading this way as insurance becomes more impossible to work with, frequently putting providers in painful ethical dilemmas about how they treat their clients/patients, wasting non-reimbursed hours with their errors & endless phone trees that loop in circles, & a whole slew of other unnecessary complexities. We have in our own business for the same reasons. This approach isn't the right fit for everyone, but it's an option that allows for far more personalized and attentive care that is quite opposite from the all too frequent "assembly line" kind of care we often get as we're rushed in and out with a frenzied provider. I'm really not surprised at all by the stellar reviews here. Bravo Dr. Samasavar and Lelah. Thank you both for looking after your patients so compassionately and for your good, kind hearts. May everyone have access to such care.

    In a few words, I had a phenomenal experience at Spektor Dental from start to finish!…read more I recently visited Spektor Dental as a new patient, and I had a wonderful experience there. The office itself is very large and spacious, but it's the incredible staff that truly makes the difference. From the moment my two young girls (ages 4 and almost 6) and I arrived, we were welcomed with warm greetings from Britt Ann, the Front Desk Manager. The team instantly made my girls comfortable, which is key for any parent, especially at a dental office. If my girls are comfortable, than I am comfortable! Dr. Go was our dentist. Once we were in the exam room, Dr. Go and a couple assistants came in to help and chat/help with the girls. ALl of them were fantastic at explaining everything clearly to me, but also explaining what they would do to my girls and built a good foundation of trust from the get go. My kids weren't scared or nervous at all. They probably didn't even realize they were at the dentist! The following day, I came back to get my dental cleaning (it's that time of year for all of us to get our teeth checked). And again, the level of care was nothing short of exceptional. Many staff members went out of their way to stop in and say hello, even if I wasn't their specific patient. Dr. Go was my dentist as well. And to no surprise, she was very patient with me, and explained every step of the process to me very clearly, and outlined what areas I should focus on brushing on better at home. I felt completely at ease throughout my entire visit. If I had to say there was one thing the office could work on, I would suggest having better signage out on the main room as it was hard to find the entry off of the street my first time getting there (the office is in the back of an office complex). But once inside, the 'going to the dentist' experience far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Spektor Dental, and Dr. Go!

    Everyone there is caring and quality oriented! It is always a pleasure to visit and be cared for!…read more Thanks!
