    If you're someone who has dental anxiety, or you've put off going to the dentist for years because…read moreyou're scared, embarrassed, or worried about being judged, this review is for you. I had excellent dental care growing up until I was about 14, but I also had a traumatic experience as a child when I flipped over my bike, knocked several teeth out, and had to be strapped into a chair while a dentist worked on them. That experience stayed with me. After my parents divorced, going to the dentist stopped being a priority, and despite brushing my teeth every day, I avoided dental visits for years. Eventually, I started having tooth pain and assumed I had one bad tooth. It turned out I needed two root canals and multiple fillings. To say I was terrified would be an understatement. One of the biggest fears about returning to the dentist after a long time is the feeling that you'll be judged. Dr. French completely erased that fear. She has been nothing but kind, compassionate, and genuinely caring from day one. She's the type of person who instantly makes you feel comfortable, and honestly, she's just an incredibly cool person. The hygienists and the rest of the staff are just as wonderful. Every single person in the office is warm, welcoming, and makes you feel like they genuinely care about you. The office itself is beautiful and has such a calming atmosphere. Then there's the fear of pain. I can honestly say I experienced virtually none. Dr. French referred me to Dr. Baines at San Jose Endodontics for my root canals, and I couldn't have asked for a better referral. Both root canals were completely painless. They prescribed ibuprofen afterward, and I never even needed it. Back at Willow Glen Dental, I was also genuinely impressed by how much they've invested in technology. It's not just a beautiful office--it feels like they've made a real commitment to giving patients the best experience possible. After my root canals, they digitally scanned my teeth, designed my crowns, and milled them right there in the office. I took about an hour to an hour-and-a-half break, came back, and had both permanent crowns placed that same day. No temporary crowns. No waiting weeks. As someone who hadn't been to the dentist in years, I had no idea dentistry had come this far, and it made the entire process incredibly convenient. The same was true for my fillings and every other procedure I've had. Throughout every appointment, the team made sure I was comfortable, answered every question, and never rushed me. Yesterday I finished the restorative portion of my treatment plan after about a year and a half of care. Dr. French joked, "Last round!" and then laughed that I was probably tired of seeing them. I surprised myself with my response: "Honestly... I used to have really bad dental anxiety, and now I don't." And I truly meant it. That's one of the greatest gifts this office has given me. They didn't just fix my teeth--they completely changed how I feel about going to the dentist. I never thought I'd be someone who could walk into a dental appointment feeling relaxed, but that's exactly how I feel now. I've already recommended Willow Glen Dental and Dr. French to several friends, and I'll continue recommending them to anyone who asks. (Just don't book Dr. French too solid--I still need my appointments! ) As long as I live in the Bay Area, this is where I'll be coming for my dental care. Dr. French is nothing short of amazing. I don't know what kind of magic she works, but she's incredible. Thank you, Dr. French, Dr. Baines, and the entire Willow Glen Dental team for giving me back not only my smile, but my confidence and peace of mind. 10/10. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

    This is my review of my recent dental checkup. The front office staff is extremely friendly and…read morewelcoming, and checked me in right away. I waited no more than five minutes before being called in by the dental hygienist. She struck up great conversation and made me feel very comfortable as she cleaned my teeth. Dr. French came talk to me about a couple of issues I had and provided very reasonable recommendations and paths forward for each. Very friendly dentist! The facility is brand new, very clean, and very well run. If you're looking for a new dentist, look no further than Willow Glen Dental!

    I want to share my experience today as constructive feedback. First, I want to make it clear that…read moreI've generally had very good experiences with this office. The staff has always been professional and helpful, so this review is not meant to say that everything is bad. I'm simply sharing my point of view about what happened today. I had a 3:00 PM appointment and I fully acknowledge that I arrived late. The office called me at 3:10 PM asking if I was nearby, and I told them I was already very close. They called me again while I was arriving, and I walked into the office at approximately 3:17 PM. At that point, I was told that the doctor could no longer see me and that I would have to reschedule. I understand there may be a 10-minute grace period and I was 7 minutes beyond that. However, I was already right outside when they called me. I had rushed back from work in Santa Cruz, dealt with Friday traffic, used my time and gas, and sometimes patients even have to leave work early to make an appointment. My wife, my daughter, and I are all patients here, and we have always been understanding when the office runs behind. There have been times when I've waited 5-10 minutes in the lobby or 10 minutes or more after being seated, and I've never complained because I understand that delays happen. That is really my only point: consideration should go both ways. I take responsibility for being late, but completely losing an appointment over those extra few minutes, especially when I was already arriving, felt disappointing. Again, this is a good and professional team, and I appreciate the care we have received here. I'm only sharing one experience and my personal perspective. I hope the same understanding patients give the office when delays happen can also be extended to patients when reasonable circumstances cause us to run a few minutes behind.

    We had a smooth experience with our nine year old daughter's orthodontic treatment. Dr Amy Tam is…read moreknowledgeable, gentle, and patient- she took her time to explain each step and made my daughter feel comfortable. The assistants, Duy, and Maria, were friendly, which made the experience even more pleasant. We also appreciated that the office was on time for our appointments. Home care is so important. I value the time they spent going over instructions with videos and explanations. It really shows they care about your long-term oral health. They also provided a care kit which included an electric toothbrush and water flosser when we started treatment! We highly recommend this office and Dr Tam to anyone looking for compassionate, high-quality orthodontic care! The office is part of a strip mall beside Asby Sports- it is located inside a courtyard opening. There are plenty of parking spots. And stores such as Target, Ross, Marshall's and Raising Canes are nearby.
