“As someone with pretty horrible dental anxiety and sensory issues I really recommend this practice. Everyone was very friendly and helpful, answered my questions and listened carefully. The cleaning especially was very painless and quick, with less time spent using the cavitron than other dentists—I appreciated that because I find it especially uncomfortable. No issues with scheduling/insurance!”

There was a hiccup with my appointment because the person that was seeing me called out sick. I wasn't notified possibly because I had made the appointment late the night before. Though there was a hiccup, Dr. Song squeezed me in and made it a point to see me. The rest of the staff as well as Dr. Song made me feel comfortable and educated about the next steps. I would recommend them to anyone!

Very nice doctor and I’ve been there before. He made sure I was comfortable with everything and checked in on me through the cleaning. We picked the best option to fix my tooth and I go back.
Verified patient
Dr. Song was great. My last 3 or 4 dentist visits have been with different offices because it’s surprisingly difficult to find a good dentist with a clean office who doesn’t try to upsell you on random treatments. Dr Song and his staff were extremely nice, very knowledgeable and straightforward, and as a bonus gave me the best and most thorough teeth cleaning I think I’ve ever had. Highly highly recommended.
Verified patient
Friendly. Professional.
Verified patient
Dr. Song was very knowledgeable, patient, and kind. I told him I felt nervous and he took the time to explain everything he was doing to ease my anxiety.
I loved my first visit at Clear Dental! The dental team were extremely friendly, attentive, and professional. I went for a cleaning and it was thorough and comfortable. Will definitely make Clear Dental my regular dental office! Prior to my visit, I submitted a question about insurance on their online form and received a call with clear instructions within the next 10 minutes.
Verified patient
Dr. Song was so efficient, carefully explaining each step he was doing so I was aware of what was happening. I was on the border of getting a root canal, but he was able to mend my tooth and I received a deeper filling instead which I am so grateful for. His bedside manner is really calming, and it is apparent that he cares about his patient's comfort and time.
Verified patient
Highly recommend Dr. song! I am a long-time dentist avoider because of some traumatic early childhood dental experiences when I was younger… Dr Song immediately sensed my discomfort and went out of his way to make me feel comfortable. He talked me through every aspect of the check-up and cleaning, checked in on my comfort throughout, and was thorough. He was kind, gentle, validating, and professional. I hadn’t been to a dentist in four years before today and already booked my next cleaning with him in six months! Highly recommend, without hesitation!
Verified patient
The office was very clean, staff was friendly, and services were very professional and efficient. I will definitely go back.

I’m here to write a review about firstly the wonderful staff of Dr. Song specially the Hygienist Michelle. She was very professional, great listener, skilled, and entertaining/funny. Dr. Song checked me out after my teeth cleaning with the Hygienist and he too was very professional and can explain greatly to patients about the procedures being done and questions I had. Lastly, they even gave me a dental kit as my welcome gift during my very first visit! Dr. Song and his staff definitely goes the extra mile. The office is clean and has aesthetic. Overall I highly recommend them!
