I've come here for dentistry since I was a kid, and I feel so lucky to have experienced the amazing standard of care set by Dr. Kim and the whole Pacific Modern team. The dental hygienists are consistently super friendly, efficient, and very communicative (always telling me what will happen next and checking in). Most importantly, they enthusiastically answer my questions! At my cleaning today, Grace explained how genetics can impact dental health, and looked up information in my chart to help me understand what's happening with my teeth. Dr. Kim in super competent and efficient, while also answering my questions and listening to my concerns. He has done a number of fillings for me and I'm always pleased that he's so fast -- but I've also never had to return with problems or to have the bite adjusted, because he does it right the first time. I have a composite filling that is starting to chip, and I was interested in how old it was: turns out it has lasted for over a decade, and none of the fillings I've gotten in the 9 years since seeing Dr. Kim have had issues. I'd call that quality work! I love that you can easily schedule online, and Janine at the front desk makes sure they there's room to quickly schedule follow-up appointments. I've shopped around to compare prices as I currently pay out-of-pocket, but I keep returning to Pacific Modern Dentistry, because they're doing excellent work at the same or lower prices than elsewhere. PS: It's not the most important thing, but I gotta admit having a beautiful lake view from your dentist's chair is pretty great!

I cant say enough about Dr. Kim and his entire team. I am BEYOND grateful for the genuine care, professionalism, kindness, and AMAZING work I’ve received. I was referred to Pacific Modern Dentistry by another dental professional in early 2024 when I began my journey to restore my smile and overall dental health. Like some or many, I’d neglected my oral health for many years but was met without judgement or hesitation. Dr. Kim put together a realistic dental plan I could fathom and shared his portfolio of beautiful restorations of before and after stories. After several needed fillings, Invisalign trays, and regular cleanings.. we made it to the final restoration day TODAY and it is life changing. Dr. Kim is incredible, thoughtful, thorough, talented, discerning.. I’ve never received better care. Thank you to the entire team. Thank you for treating me with care and kindness! I’m incredibly grateful for the time and dedication provided to me!

Dr. Jae S. Kim, May, Janette, and Grace have all been amazing through a complicated bridge process. I was referred to Dr. Kim by an industry competitor, because he is known to be exceptionally talented with cases like mine. I do have dental anxiety and a neurological pain processing issue, so 10-months of procedures was challenging for me, but May and Dr. Kim were patient, and consistently checked in to see how I was doing. In return, I didn’t meltdown in the chair. Dr. Kim is clearly a perfectionist and his attention to detail is truly amazing. I am continuing my preventative care in their office and will always prioritize them for my future dental procedure needs.

The dental hygienist usually assigned to me is just excellent. As of this writing I am literally having a mental block on her name, but she's a really nice young woman from Kansas. She does a really thorough job, is very attentive to when she needs to pause, provide suction or rinse, And provides the appropriate amount of verbal feedback about what's coming next. I also think everyone I've been on staff have been great and I appreciate the level of care that I'm getting. dr. Kimm is always on point when I get a chance to speak with him about a long-term trajectory of a particular issue. great dental office all around!

You will not find a better dentist, or dental office anywhere. Dr. Kim is simply THE BEST, as are the dental hygienists and entire staff. In fact, I switched after watching how the office cared for my 85 year old father through the dental implant process. Dr. Kim is compassionate, detail oriented, and incredibly skilled. He is truly an artist as well. My dad went from having a relatively severe case of tooth decay after covid and the early stages of Alzheimer's, to proudly showing off his smile and having the ability to eat freely again. His implants look completely natural and he frequently comments how much better his teeth look now compared to any other time in his life. I am eternally grateful for everything Dr. Kim has done. I also appreciate that he listens to his patients needs to come up with the best solutions, which isn't always the most expensive or immediate. If a procedure can wait, or there are extenuating circumstances where a delay in treatment is best, Dr. Kim will proceed say so, and recommend the best course of action. I trust him completely.
