“Super friendly and caring! Made sure to explain everything to me, so I understand what I’m getting done and future care”
Lindsey F.January 20, 2026
“Dr. Tran has helped me tremendously in my overall dental care, and my overall
health as well. She was the one who found out about my sleep apnea problem and
introduced me to the vivos appliance. I am using the appliance now and look
forward to being able to breathe better. If need be, I plan to do fast braces and any
other dental procedures with smooth dental in the future. ”

About Dr. Elizabeth Tran
I’m Dr. Elizabeth Tran, a general dentist with over 20 years of experience. But more than that, I’m someone who cares deeply about helping people live healthier, happier lives. For me, dentistry isn’t just about fixing teeth—it’s about empowering you with knowledge and care so you can enjoy lasting health and confidence.
I’ve always believed that every dental problem tells a story. Whether it’s crooked teeth, cavities, or gum disease, these aren’t just isolated problems—they’re signs of something deeper. Your body is trying to tell us something, and my passion is connecting the dots to uncover the bigger picture. I don’t just want to treat symptoms; I want to understand the “why” behind them. By addressing the root cause of your dental concerns, I can help you achieve a healthier smile and a healthier life.
That’s why my approach goes far beyond filling and drilling. Over the course of my career, I’ve completed thousands of hours of advanced dental education to provide the most comprehensive, up-to-date care to my community. I take the time to truly listen and understand your story, creating a personalized plan that doesn’t just address your immediate needs but also focuses on your long-term well-being.
At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to creating a positive and supportive experience for every patient. I’m known for my warm and caring nature, and I genuinely value the trust and relationships I build with each person I treat.
When you visit me, you’re not just a patient—you’re family. Together, we’ll uncover the root of your concerns, build a path to better health, and help you smile brighter and healthier. I can’t wait to meet you and be part of your journey to wellness!

I was referred to this dentist by a friend and was pleasantly impressed by the dentist
and all her staff. Everyone was extremely professional and made sure to educate
me on my dental work. The dentist even called me at home after the procedures to
see how I was feeling. !!! Another important feature was all the preventative
education I was provided. I would definitely refer anyone to this dentist!!feature.

I am very pleased with the Service I received from Dr. Tran. From the very first time I
came to her office, she made me feel confident and cared for. She took complete
charge of my mouth and let me know exactly all the things I needed done. That
made me feel confident I was going to get things handled with my teeth.

I have been a patient of Dr. Tran for nearly 15 years. Although I have moved away,
I've always managed to come back to her location. I started my adventure with Dr.
Elizabeth Tran and her staff at her first location. Smooth Dental has provided
treatment for cleanings, filings, crowns, and everything in between! The care my
daughter and I receive is above and beyond expectation forever grateful! Thank
you!

I've been coming to Smooth Dental Group for years. Dr. Tran is an excellent dentist
that keeps up with the latest trends in dentistry. She recently used a laser procedure
to help with some issues I had with my gums. The treatment worked like a charm
and was not painful at all. The areas on my gums that were treated were irritated for
a day or two. I highly recommend her.

dental clinic.

Oh, WOW!!! It has to be the expression when you first come to this office. I've been
their patients for years and so have my kids, siblings... Besides a nice office with
up-to-date technology, all doctors and hygienist are incredibly nice and professional,
especially Dr. Elizabeth Tran. The staffs are very welcoming and always with a
smile. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my dental needs..

5 stars because they make you feel less apprehensive about going to the dentist!
Before going to Smooth Dental I honestly really had a fear of the dentist but after
going here doesn't feel all that scary anymore. They are very quick and thorough
with their procedures and very organized when it comes to making and changing
appointments for you which I love since they work around your schedule.

I recently got an extraction done in this office. They were great. Just like any
extraction it was a little painful, but they made every effort to make me feel
comfortable. The dentist was highly recommended and now I see why. I healed
quickly and I had little to no pain afterwards. Just soreness. By the third day I was
eating solid foods. My friends were surprised to hear how quickly I was healing.

Dr. Tran, along with her staff, have the perfect combination of professional and
knowledgeable work alongside friendly customer care. They listen well and patiently
to your needs and meet those needs in a kind and efficient manner. Their prices are
incredibly competitive for the high quality equipment and product. If you have to go
to the dentist and you don't go here you are making a grave mistake.

To put it simply, this place is awesome. I have only been coming here for a couple weeks now and I can honestly say I haven't had a better experience anywhere else. The people here are friendly, very informative, they're upfront with the treatments and prices they recommend, and they take the time to answer any questions I've had.

Dr. Tran and her staff are always polite, friendly, and they express a genuine concern for all of their patients. They made me feel welcomed and they stressed patient education, explaining to me everything that was going on. I had a great experience, even though I came in for a root canal.

I was lucky to find Smooth Dental in 2019. I researched local dentists close to work. They had 5 stars and they earn them. Great service, great communication, and great staff. Completely satisfied. So much so I recommended my adult daughter and fellow co-workers. I recommend them period. The work is exemplary of course. You need a dentist? Then you need Smooth Dental.

I was a little nervous before my visit to Smooth Dental in Santa Ana, but Dr. Tran made me feel comfortable right away. She explained everything clearly and was very professional. The front desk staff was also really friendly, and I didn’t have to wait at all before being seated. The office was super clean, which I really appreciated.
I came in for a dental cleaning and exam, and the whole process was smooth and painless. Another thing I love is how close it is to my house! It’s right next to Bari Pasta & Pizza, my favorite spot, and just around the corner from my our lady of guadalupe church. The whole experience was great, and I’m really glad I found this place.
