Never in a million years did I envision myself writing a review for a dentist office. This was…read morehands down the best cleaning experience I've had in my life. The place felt like a spa with how chique and clean the decor was. The fact that the forms asked you what your music/tv preferences are and then had them playing as you walked into your room...amazing. The hygienist was extremely helpful and kind. Dr. Nguyen gave my teeth the compliments and recognition I've been needing my whole life. Walked out smiling not only because my teeth were clean but I was genuinely happy :D.

I've been going to see Dr Yen since she opened the office, and I'm really happy that I made the switch! First of all, Dr Yen is the sweetest person and always makes me feel like a dear friend when I visit. Secondly, the office is absolutely beautiful and they really try to make your visit a positive experience. When I filled out my initial application they ask what types of shows and music I like. Every time I visit, a playlist from my favorite band is already playing in the exam room which is a great touch. You can also watch Netflix shows during your exam. But onto the important stuff - the dental work! I really appreciate that Dr Yen, even with all of her fancy equipment and new-construction office, is not a pushy money grabbing dentist. She has always been very reasonable and thoughtful with her treatment plans, never pushing any unnecessary treatments or services, while also having great attention to detail during her exams and fillings (the only treatment I've ever gotten here so far).

I had a disappointing experience with this dental office during my Invisalign treatment. I…read moreinitially chose this practice because my case seemed straightforward, and I felt comfortable moving forward with a general dentist rather than an orthodontist based on their reassurance. Unfortunately, the results did not meet expectations. Despite following the treatment plan as directed, I was not satisfied with the final outcome, and my concerns were not adequately addressed when I brought them up. There was a lack of clear communication and accountability regarding next steps or potential corrections. The financial aspect has also been frustrating. I paid for treatment in full at the beginning, yet I have continued to receive requests for additional payments with inconsistent amounts and no clear explanation. This has felt disorganized and unprofessional. In addition, I was never provided with retainers at the completion of treatment, which is a standard and essential part of Invisalign care. Because of this and the unresolved issues with my results, I ultimately had to transfer my care to another provider, pay a transfer fee, and complete treatment elsewhere at additional cost. Overall, this was a frustrating experience marked by poor communication, lack of follow-through, and unexpected financial issues. I would recommend others carefully consider their options before proceeding with treatment here.

I had a broken tooth, so came in to get it repaired. They were able to get me in super quickly, and the support staff were communicative and friendly. The dental hygienists were great - very friendly, quick. The dentist was nice enough, but I returned to get it fixed (after the evaluation), and had such an awful experience. I've never had such an unpleasant, uncomfortable experience, with little to no information being communicated. I left, vowing never to return but unfortunately this tooth began to hurt (which never hurt when it was broken), sensitive, and completely unable to bite down. I returned for repair and was told that sometimes this happens. Again, this has never happened to me. They fixed it I suppose. It is still more sensitive than any other teeth but I will never be back here. Unfortunate, because staff were nice and this is located near to me. Other offices have a long wait to get in, or are not taking new patients and I guess I should've known when they could get me in right away!

This week, I had the novel experience of enjoying a trip to the dentist…read more Dr. Prakash, his technical assistant Tula (herself a dentist), and everyone at Fresh Smile Seattle went above and beyond in their first time care of me: a somewhat anxious neurodivergent senior citizen dentist-hater since childhood. To be fair, my anti-dental stand is rooted in trauma, pun intended, but there was no ego at Fresh Smile, just a genuine desire to help their patients and do good work. Go here, folks. Especially if you have any fears. I like that they still mask at this office. I got Covid in late 2025 and it was one of my worst experiences, so it felt good that this place is still minimizing transmission of all respiratory bugs through PPE and lots of HEPA air filtration. I felt safe going here which for me, is rare. I have NEVER had a dental workup like this. My first clue were the intake questions. I usually hate filling those forms, but these questions were intelligent and caring. Then, Dr. Prakash and Tula gathered extensive data on my mouth. X-ray equipment was top of the line and thorough, and the office has tools which created a 3d scan of my bite. This built a computer model of my teeth that can be used for appliance formation or to reference future changes. Cutting edge stuff. Although the past 5 years somewhat ravaged my mouth, I feel confident that this team will get me back to the best dental health I can achieve. The office is easily accessible on Capitol Hill. There is dedicated parking. Costs were reasonable, and Dr. Prakash showed a willingness to work with my finances which was great. If you need to find a kind, technically proficient, up to date dental office, you can't do better than Fresh Smile.

I can't recommend Dr. Prakash and Fresh Smile Seattle enough! I can honestly say I've never…read morereceived better dental care. Dr. Prakash is incredibly thorough, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and experienced. He takes the time to get to know his patients holistically, communicates with empathy and care, and seeks out the latest medical research. Thula and Hannah are amazing, as well: incredibly kind, helpful, and patient. Everyone at Fresh Smile Seattle goes above and beyond to ensure patient safety and comfort, including continuing to take protocols to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, a minor miracle in 2025, and further evidence of Dr. Prakash's research-based and grounded approach to his craft. TLDR: You could not ask for better dental care.
