I’ve been to my fair share of dentists; I never took care of my teeth as a child, so it’s haunted me for years. This was one of the worst experiences I’ve had with a dentist (I’ve been to a number over the years). The issues were numerous, from the terrible numbing process (to get 2 fillings, I needed to get 5 shots all over my gums?? And each hurt more than any shots I’ve gotten before, even with numbing gel… and even then, I felt it when he started drilling and had to get even more shots) to the fact that the dentist grinded down my actual tooth enamel on a tooth that he hadn’t worked on so he could get the filling to fit (rather than grinding the filling down). There were a myriad of other issues, from the preachy nature of his “revolutionary” brushing technique (“just touch your teeth, don’t brush them”) to the use of my cheek as a hanging spot for the suction tube when they weren’t using it, it was just not a good experience at all.

My daughter was scheduled right behind me and she’d never gotten any dental work done; he said that she had very minor cavities that he could fix without numbing her. After experiencing how terrible he was at everything he’d done so far, I got up and told the dentist that I had to hurry to something and that she wouldn’t have time to sit through the work. I wasn’t going to subject her to that guy…

My family visited for a regular check-up and Dr. Kang introduced a novel way of brushing and protecting and our teeth and gums. He explains very kindly of the effectiveness and process of doing so. The appointment needs to be made well in advance, but Dr. Kang really makes it worth it by giving excellent care and detailed explanation. I strongly recommend Dr. Kang!

Dr. Kang is the beat dentist I have ever met. Dr. Kang and his staff take time to listen and to explain the recommended treatment plan and all other options without any judgement. They go out of their way to make treatment as pleasant as possible. Highly recommend Dr. Kang for all dental needs.
