I had a very painful tooth. I checked on a dentist office near me. The clerk came off confused. No thank you. This person could give me an appt. in a month. She asked me, if I wanted it? I said, No, I will try another doctor. When I first met Eleanor, Dr. Linn's clerk, I said to myself, this is the kind of person I want to work with. She was working back and forth with Dr. Linn. They were going to give me an appt. that day. I had plans, but she made me an appt for a few days later. You can tell that this staff likes and knows how to work with the public. They are friendly and professional. ml read more

10/11/2011 Not the best dentist but not the worst. Just felt like they want to keep pushing me to but something. I cannot say I have perfect teeth or cannot say the cleanest or whitest. Teaching someone how to floss correctly doesn't mean you do it forcefully. Now that I've been to a few dentists, I have something to compare which I could say I cannot recommend this dentist office. I am sure someone's going to give me crap for this review but that's how I feel and that's my opinion. read more

Do not go to this dentist, when I say this I am being completely for real DO NO go here. Trust me. These people will try and scam you for your money the front desk lady is so incompetent it's actually insane. They refuse to give me things I paid for and give me excuses. I have been trying to get my xrays for two months (I already got them done but would like to go another carrier) they kept telling me that they are thinking of a price to email them to me and they are very busy and that the doctor is too busy to tell me a price ... it is a simple number and email I do not understand the hold up (??) it takes two months to think of a price?? Like what's the price difference between me getting my X-rays emailed and another person?? It's a photo of the same thing, teeth! And that's not the worst part I go in because my teeth are in severe pain and I cannot wait any longer and am trying to go to another place because their prices were too much for me. I go in and the lady at the front desk proceeded to tell me they don't have a price for me nor a POLICY because the doctor is now on a two month leave because he has surgery?? I understand you need to leave work because of surgery but I had asked two months prior before this "surgery" even occurred for the price and they never once contacted me again after I had contacted them multiple times trying to pay and get a price. The front desk lady proceeds to say that it is not in her hands and she can't do anything about. At this point honestly I'm assuming that they are not wanting to provide me with something I paid 300 dollars for because there is no way this is now going to take 4 months just to get my X-rays emailed to me. I mean I thought it was a bit strange I have to pay for them again but it's fine whatever but for them to lag on a health issue?? I am in pain and this is not something to lag it is completely unprofessional and so insane for licensed dentist and doctors to act on a health issue. I think it's pretty insane for them to say he was too busy to give me a price when that is LITERALLY his job. Like he's too busy not doing his job? I really don't get it. My dentist was William Lin. There was also a review saying that he is very rough and he really is he is not gentle with you at all and not very kind while doing it as well. So in conclusion just don't come here they are so overpriced and will scam you. Wish I knew read more

It isn't easy finding a Dentist that you can trust and I am happy to say today I found that with Dr. Lin and his staff. Dr. Lin took his time cleaning my teeth and explaining to me everything I needed to know. I will be recommending him to any of my friends that are looking for a dentist they can trust. Thank you, see you again for my next check up. read more

All I can say is I Love my dentist! Dr. Lin is the best! I won't go anywhere else. Thank you for taking care of me and my family.

I highly recommend this place. Dr. Lin is a professional and is very affable. The staff is extremely friendly and always has a positive and calming attitude! I came in for a routine check up and had to get one filling and deep cleaning on my gums. Dr. Lin said i'd feel like a new man, and I did! I called yesterday saying I thought my filling had came out of it's cavity, and they booked me that day at the end of the day. I went in and they checked it out for free! Just a chip in the tooth, and the filling was still in there. Plus: There's rarely ever a wait!!! read more

Dr. Lin has been our family dentist for over 15 years. He is very experienced and knowledgeable. I had my braces done by him when I was young and still continue to see him twice a year for cleaning. Keep in mind, people HATE going to the dentist but he is a good doctor. My only criticism is that the "deep cleansing" used to be a little rough but he has gentler in my recent visits. read more

If you're looking for a good dentist around Temple City, this is the place to go. Dr. Lin is very attentive and thorough with his work, and everyone in the office makes you feel welcome the moment you arrive. Making appointments with them (and rescheduling, if necessary) is pretty easy as well. Highly recommended. read more

Having been to a handful of dentists in the area, Dr. Lin is definitely one of the best! His office is not your typical dull-looking office, and his staff made my visit stress free. They are all extremely courteous and warm everytime I come here. On my last visit, I came in for a routine checkup and found out I needed some fillings done. Dr. Lin laid out multiple treatment options for me, and even recommended which option he would pick given my predicament. I can't say this for every dentist out there, but I trust Dr. Lin with my teeth and my wallet. read more

Dr. Lin and his staff have been amazing with handling my son's case. They are currently in the process of giving him a great smile with braces; they make sure he has a great and smooth experience. My son looks forward to his ortho visits:D Highly recommended! read more

I called around for a few consultations for a wisdom tooth extraction, and either some dentists said they couldn't do it or simply didn't want to (not in those exact words). Fortunately, Dr. Lin was up for the challenge and didn't hesitate. The entire procedure took no more than 15 minutes. I was in and out within 40 minutes. He cleaned my teeth before the procedure and I appreciated his thoroughness. I was a bit annoyed that some dentists didn't care to help me, even after I told them that I was in pain. I felt hopeless because I really needed my tooth out!!! It's sad that some dentists aren't up for a challenge when patients' teeth aren't "easy" for them. It just goes to show that they aren't genuinely passionate. I can tell that Dr. Lin is!! read more

one of the worst dentist places to be, this is one of the location that my crappy insurance will cover... first of all, the waiting time... if your appointment is at 3pm, you won't get to the chair till 3:20, then you sit and wait some more, by 3:40 they'lll start to examine you, then wait...and wait.... the only reason they do that cause one doctor have to work on like 3-4 patients at one time... the Male doctor.. same name as the office name... Dr. William Lin.. gots the roughest hands... even going in for a cleaning seems like you're experiencing a Deep Cleaning procedure.. ohh man..., theres another female doctor there, her name is Marie.. she is gentle, do a great job, but the waiting is just normal there.. staff workers are great, just doing their jobs... but i would prefer EAST-WEST DENTAL in Monterey Park on Garvey... they have several doctors there and each doctor has an assistant.. once you're on the chair, these are dedicated doctors that stay with you from beginning till end... so end conclusion... avoid this place if you can... we have better things to do with our time then to wait for hours...and if you like painful visits read more

Dr. Lin, thank you for my beautiful smile. It's been more than 20 years that you've been taking care of my teeth and I appreciate you and your wonderful staff. The front office always makes sure I'm aware of the cost before service begins. Your support staff is always very attentive to the patients needs. I don't even worry about the x-Rays anymore because they're not painful. read more

William W Lin, DDS - Dr. Lin, thank you for my beautiful smile. - General Dentistry Near Me - Temple City, California

I have been going to Dr. Lin for my dental needs for many years, and he has never disappointed. He has done my braces, teeth whitening, wisdom teeth extractions and cavities. Each and every time he would give a detailed explanation of the procedure as well as my options. He also has very good technique when giving anesthetic shots, I've never felt any pain at all! Many people have told me that going to the dentist is a painful and stressful experience, but I have never felt that way with Dr. Lin. I highly recommend going to him for all your dental care needs! read more

I've been going to Dr Lin for almost 20 years. His skill is excellent. I just had my tooth pulled. I didn't even notice when he's done. Even injection is not painful. My husband had his implant done here too. His cousin, a very picky person, is very satisfied with him. The office is very clean with updated equipments. Friendly and patient staff. Highly recommended. read more

I've been coming to Dr Lin for many years. He is very professional and patient. The office is super cute and modern, and the staff is very friendly. I will be a patient for life!:) read more

I have been seeing Dr. Lin for my Dental care for over 7 years. With a history of chronic build up on my teeth,he does an excellent job at cleaning my teeth and keep me in good dental health. When I had to have a crown, he did an excellent job, with the crown matching my other teeth. His front office staff, led by Becky, are very friendly and helpful with flexibility in appointment bookings for my busy schedule. His back office staff is courteous and professional. I would recommend his office for excellent dental care. My family and I will be lifetime patients. read more

Mrs. Chung 12/24/2012 In the old days we were frequently changing our dentist in searching for a good one we could trust. Luckily we found Dr. Lin and he has been our family dentist for more than 15 years now. After my first appointment, I was impressed by his thoroughness in cleaning and examing my teeth. Through the years, my family did have services in dental fillings, tooth extracting, root canal, and crowning done by Dr. Lin. All were in our satisfactory. He has a good temperament and is very pleasant to get along with. Occasionaly,an unexpected dental problem poped up, we were always able to have his attentions either in the same day after his last appointment or by booking an emergency Saturday appointment. I am very happy to see Dr. Lin has achieved a very successful career now through his dedication and many years' hard working. His new dental office is well equipped, beautiful, and clean. All the assistants and the front office ladies are very nice and friendly. Even though we live pretty far from his new office, (~ 50 mins in light freeway traffic), I have no plan to change because we really value his service. read more

My husband and I have been going to Dr. Lin for about 10 years now and it's been a great experience since day 1! Dr. Lin knows his stuff and he treats his patients with the utmost care! He doesn't try to up sell procedures like most newly out-of-dental-school dentists would do. He's showed us many ways to keep our teeth healthy! His team and office staff are awesome! Everyone is super friendly and caring! The office and patient rooms are clean and fully equipped with the latest technology. read more

Dr. Lin is the dentist I was assigned to by my insurance so I was not sure about to keep him as my primary dentist, I am glad I did. Friendly staff, clean office. read more

Bad experience! The front desk lady didn't do her job to check my insurance before my appointment time, and told me that I am not on their insured list! She made me call my insurance and faxed over my eligibility(I was insured and assigned to this dentist) then told me that I was still not be able to do my cleaning because I was not on the list! Totally wasted my time taken off from work. Not going back to this dentist office ever again. read more

My wife and I switched to Dr. Lin from our prior dentist mainly due to the constant pressure to have additional "improvement/beauty" work done at additional cost not covered by our insurance and not wanted by us. The doctor's and staff were friendly, prompt, qualified, had every new dental tool available. They even had a talking x-ray machine(!) which explains why there was a constant barrage of unwanted sales pressure and additional charges beyond insurance coverage. We picked Dr. Lin's office due to close proximity to our house which turned out to be a really great choice. The entire staff has been excellent in all categories including working with my wife on the cost of procedures covered in insurance "gray areas" that all plans have and your insurance provider's answer is just "double talk". My wife and I both are very happy with Dr. Lin and Dr. Nguyen's dental abilities and clear explanations of procedures needed, insurance coverage and additional costs over insurance payment. No pressure, just straight talk as to what is needed, cost and what might/will happen if you don't have "this or that" done including options available. Your decision. Great! My wife prefers Dr. Nguyen's softer touch where I prefer Dr. Lin's firm, direct technique to get the job done. Dr. Lin just completed an implant replacing a lower back molar that he pulled. From start to finish everything went as smooth as possible with little if any pain. Pulling the bad molar, drilling and placing the implant, frequent checkups to be sure all was healing to impressions and placement of the crown. All went very well, the crown fit perfect the first time. My prior dentist also placed an implant, lower front which needed several adjustments and even came off requiring resetting. It also cost 20% more. I would recommend Dr. Lin's dental office to everyone as the first choice. read more

Dr. Lin has been taking care my teeth for over 15 years. He is very professional, polite and honest. My five implant teeth were in very good condition and do not have problem. I have confident in him. Also the other dental services are very good too. He has my word of mouth. read more

William Lin is a good doctor. He did 3 implant teeth for me. He is patient and careful to handle my case. By almost one year, William did the job successfully. During the process I did not feel pain. He is a good one to do the implant for me. Thanks him. read more

Dr. Lin Is a very skillful and responsible professional, I find A big difference from him and other dentist For just doing my routine dental cleaning, Dr. Lin seems looking for treasure from each one of my teeth, he cleans it very thorough, but other dentist cleans my teeth like a feather touching them, you do not feel any attention or care at all. We are very happy and feel lucky that we have Dr. Lin as our dentist. Dr. Lin, we are stick with you. read more
