BEWARE!!!!! DO NOT ALLOW THIS MAN TO BE YOUR ORAL SURGEON!!! I strongly recommend avoiding this…read moredentist. I went in to have a wisdom tooth removed. During the consultation, the dentist told me there was another tooth close to a nerve that could potentially cause numbness in my mouth. Because of that risk, he recommended I get a CT scan so he could locate the tooth and avoid hitting the nerve. Despite this precaution, the procedure resulted in nerve damage. The entire left side of my lower face and my chin are now numb. This has been extremely upsetting! What makes this even more troubling is that about a year ago I spoke with another person who said she experienced the same complication after being treated by this dentist. Based on my experience, I feel the procedure was handled carelessly with negligence. The focus was more on recommending additional services than ensuring patient safety. Please do your research and consider anyone other than him!!!!!

I made an appointment and they were able to see me within three weeks, which worked perfectly for me. I came in for my consultation and they told me I needed to remove all four wisdom teeth. About a week and a half later they brought me in for the procedure. They were so kind and comforting from the moment I walked in. They talked me through every step and made sure I felt safe. Everyone was wonderful. The receptionist, the assistants, and the doctor all treated me with care. I am usually scared of the dentist and I shake every time, but they made me feel calm. I did not feel anything during the procedure and I went home recovering just fine. I highly recommend this place. Thank you to everyone who made me feel so comfortable.

My bad I didn't ask enough on my first two visits but the concerns have been resolved in today's visit. Receptionists and dental assistants are still very nice, helpful & thoughtful. Dr. Tsang tried his very best and did a great job on fixing the diastema and reshape without numbing. This time I asked lot of questions, make sure there was no miscommunication and on the same page before the fixing processes. Dr. was willing to explain and communicate, which ended up I am satisfied with the results, no pain, that matters the most in a dental visit - GENTLE WITH NO PAIN!

In fact, due to the recent shake up of so many dentists not taking Delta Dental, we moved our kids there too. So now the whole family goes. I basically just go for cleanings... twice a year despite the recommended 3 times.. (the third one would not be covered. Penny-wise and pound foolish, perhaps, but two times in a year has done me well so far.) My only gripe is a minor one. I like continuity and having the same person do my cleanings. I had Tui at first and then it was another one whose name I forget but she did it perhaps twice so I was growing accustomed to her. Last time I went, they had a person who was, per what she told me, a temporary person. She kinda rushed it, with no nice comments or feedback regarding my flossing. About which.. I can't remember if I mentioned it but their previous comments gave me a complex about my flossing. So I switched to that Oral-B charcoal and mint where the floss is black. And it is so satisfying to floss with it and actually see the plaque that is scraped away. It shows up against the black thread of the floss. To be candid, I was waiting for some props on results of the improved flossing and felt a bit deflated when they never came. Oh well... first world problems as they say. Of course, nothing is perfect and the best evidence of my satisfaction level is my continued and expanding business with the doctor. And in any case the front desk staff is always super nice, welcoming, professional and great with kids. Keep it flossin!
