Dr. Sakata and his staff are stellar professionals! I’ve been with them for decades and have always left knowing I was in the best of hands. From check-in to check out and everything in between . Ready to accommodate at a moment’s notice with those unforeseen circumstances. Dependable and a consistent level of quality service!

Dr. Sakata and the entire staff in his practice were friendly, professional, and immediately put me at ease as a new patient. I was very impressed with the thoroughness of the new patient exam.

It was a pleasant visit after a while at Dr. Sakata’s office. I got Ms Farin as my hygienist? I’m not sure how they are called. But this lady is kind and very accommodating in all my concerns..She’s very careful in all her task and explaining what she is about to do or doing. She said she love her job and it shows on how she work and how she communicate with her patient .. Thank you Ms Farin and Dr. Steven Sakata..🥰

I’ve been a patient at Dr. Sakata’s office for many years. The staff is efficient and friendly and I feel completely at ease. Dr. Sakata has treated me for some serious dental problems and the result is wonderful. I am very happy with the work and personal attention I have received here.

I have multiple myeloma and the cancer treatments do a number on your teeth. Having all my remaining teeth pulled and getting dentures was a big decision. I've got my permanent dentures now and they look great. I am super happy with the outcome. Dr. Sakata and his staff have been wonderful and I always feel comfortable there. Recommend 100%. Add: 7/16 Had to get my lower denture replaced. I dropped it and it snapped in half. Took it in to Dr. Sakata's office. The replacement looks great. I don't think you could go wrong choosing his practice. Add: 11/11/25 Got my hard reline on the top and bottom dentures. Great job. Huge improvement from what I had going on when I first came in a year ago. Big Aloha to Dr. Sakata and his staff. Great folks.
