I personally wouldn't recommend. The hygienist was lovely she did a great job and I enjoyed the conversation. The Dr. was disingenuous and not personable. It was an awkward interaction and the first thing she said was "have you considered veneers?" No hi, how are you lol.. My teeth are very straight and I have never had or needed braces. Over the years it's seemingly getting harder to find dentists who isn't looking to see what they can get out of you monetarily. I view them as doctors not a cosmetic practice. That's how I felt personally. I definitely did not go back and am still looking for a better fit.

Was here recently for a mostly standard exam/cleaning/etc, and had a great experience! The front office staff were cordial and helpful and the dental technician who helped me was an absolute dear - very friendly and thorough. Dr. Ryu was to the point with her assessment, while not unkind. I'm very thankful for everyone's service, undoubtedly my chompers are too :). I definitely wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

I had the greatest dental experience with this office, from scheduling my appointments to the work that I had done. The staff were very caring and compassionate and helped ease my anxiousness. Dr. Ryu was very gentle, caring and explained everything to me while she was doing my dental work.

It has been 5 Years since Dr. Ryu saved my lower front teeth by rebuilding the lower and upper. Most dentists would have gone with the porcelain fused to metal but Dr. Ryu took the extra time and patience to make full use of porcelain. My smile looks as good now as then. No black metal lines! Thank you Dr. Ryu!
Very competent and talented. Her first concern is patient comfort. If any pain is noted the procedure is stopped until pain is controlled. Her results are excellent! Personable and friendly.

Dr. Ryu is one of the best dentists I have ever had. She is very concerned with making sure the patient is doing well as she performs procedures. Gentle, kind and efficient.
Also, Heather and the front desk employees are equally qualified and kind. They are all very knowledgeable and build good rapport with the patients.
