“AWESOME Dentist! I haven't been in 2 years - they were respectful and gave me great concern to any nervousness I showed. Previous dentists have told me I needed mass amounts of work but Dr. Chang showed me the minor work that is needed. HIGHLY recommend to anyone who gets dentist anxiety ”

Nina’s practice has deteriorated since she left for Taiwan and then she had her most talented dentists run it, then they also left. It’s overpriced and she doesn’t care about her patients. I emailed her and never heard back.

May 3, 2022Rebecca H.Verified patient
This office/staff has revamped my dentist experience. An amazing and knowledgeable staff that are willing to teach, answer questions and are thorough. All of my X-rays were reviewed with me with terminology that I can understand and action plans that were realistic to what I can do right now to maintain and contribute towards my oral health. Clean and modern office AND there's a TV on the ceiling where you can watch Netflix during your cleaning/services AND it's a massage chair. (I felt like a dentist princess lol) I've never bragged about my dentist experience before but I left the office in a way better mood than I had arrived - which is usually the opposite lol. Completely recommend!

the doctor is very scrupulous and goes above and beyond to check how your teeth and gums are. she walks you through everything by showing your x rays on a screen and takes the time to answer all of your questions.
January 2, 2022Katia N.Verified patient
Awesome friendly staff with very little wait time, I’m talking 5 minutes and I was seen. Very thorough and knowledgeable. And makes it their mission to ensure there is no confusion about your treatment plan, conditions, and payment. Such a wonderful experience!
July 23, 2021Fanasia W.Verified patient
They showed me lots of pictures of my teeth to help explain the before/after/next steps
Dr. Chang allowed me a lot of autonomy, I was able to voice my opinions and concerns
She explained the procedures we were doing clearly
They made me feel comfortable before each step, even basic stuff like the cleaning
The hygienist explained how to take care of myself better than anyone in the past. She even helped demonstrate what was wrong with my flossing form
As a first timer they were very welcoming, and onboarding was simple
The staff was friendly and diverse
They had a massage chair and a television on the ceiling

I was seen right away and reminded via text multiple times for my appointment (SO helpful). Friendly and professional experience. Best dental experience I've had. The doctor and their staff went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Great conversation with each one of the staff and everyone was kind (even before 8am). Very cool that they take pictures of your teeth so you can see the progress you make with brushing or clearing up plaque. I will absolutely be going back - this is my new dentist.

March 8, 2020Allison S.Verified patient
Dental Serenity was the most incredible Dental experience I've come across. The staff was so friendly and professional. It was my first visit and they took dental X-rays of my entire mouth, actual photo images for 'before' images. Then they proceeded with the cleaning. I have super sensitive teeth to cold air and instead of using the automatic dental equipment, the dental hygienist did everything manually, which I was so grateful for.
Dr. Chang came in after the cleaning and went over all the x-rays and images of my teeth with me one by one and went over each tooth individually in regards to any work that needed to be done. She answered any questions I had very patiently and in depth and answered any alternative treatment method questions that came up. She gave me her professional opinion but never did she try to force a course of action but rather asked what I felt comfortable doing moving forward. A truly incredible experience and hope to move forward with working with Dr. Chang and her incredible staff.
February 9, 2020Sereen T.Verified patient
Dr. Chang was extremely friendly and informative with every step of the check up, very thorough.
Only thing, I was expecting to get everything checked and treated in the same appointment, but am prompted to book a separate appointment instead. Wish that was made clear before my first appointment.

This was definitely the best dentist visit I have ever experienced. I hadn’t been to the dentist in years and needed a thorough check up and cleaning, and everybody in the office was so friendly. Dr. Chang was kind and explained everything so that I could easily understand what my issues are and what my options are. And the office itself is really beautiful. I will definitely be back.

Came in for an overdue cleaning. No wait on a Friday afternoon. Dr Kim was very thorough and explained what she was doing and the next steps for treatment very clearly.

Dr. Nina was very thorough, she spent a lot of time examining things that many other dentists miss or often bypass in favor of getting to the next patient. She was able the catch the issues that my other dentists missed in the past and suggested preventative methods to improve the health of my teeth in the long run. You really feel like she cares about your genuine well being instead of just being someone to make money off of.

My first ever cavity filling! I was a little nervous but it all went great, it was painless, quick and efficient. Plus the staff is very kind and professional. A+
November 2, 2016Emily L.Verified patient
Well, it is super pricy. I changed to other dentist now and my bill cut 3/4. The front desk charges you a lot not sure why. I was a patient for Dr. Chang for about 2 years, and finally I switched because none of my friends have higher treatment bill than me.
