Non-Extraction Orthodontics

We practice the non-extraction orthodontics philosophy. That means helping you achieve your healthy smile without the pain of extraction.

TMJ/TMD Treatments

Do you have pain or soreness that is more prevalent in the morning or late afternoon? jaw pain when chewing, biting, or yawning? clicking noises when opening and closing mouth?

  • When you walk through the doors, someone is always there greeting you with a hello and a warm smile. I have had braces for about 3 1/2 years now and, I’m almost done! None of my permanent teeth were pulled out during this process. They also respected all the things I wanted and didn’t want to happen to my teeth for braces. Excellent Dental Care have very generous and caring people. Excellent hard workers to have a conversation with as well. I highly recommend going to their dental office, especially if you’re planning to get braces. Braces might hurt and get in a way of eating your favorite foods but, they’re definitely worth it!

    Great staff. Great work. Certainly not racist. All peoples receive good care at this clinic. The staff speaks multiple languages. How can they be racist?

  • My son Nick has been coming here for orthodontics treatment. I'm grateful that we found a Doctor that would do it without removing his teeth unnecessarily. Everyone here is extremely competent and professional! We're very lucky to find this place!

    The Auburn clinic is a new building and has brand new equipment. It seems so comfortable, so zen, so spacious, feel like being at home. Dr. Nguyen took his time with every patient and very efficient at it, you don't notice that they left you alone at any time. The staff always has a genuine smile. We go a bit further for the Auburn clinic, though the Tacoma clinic has the same welcoming staff.

  • I love this dentist because there is no pressure to make small talk during the visit! (Never understood why other places want to make conversation with hands in your mouth.) Very profesional, friendly service and direct, + clear information.

    Been coming here for two years now. Above average knowledge as they told me I had been grinding my teeth as I slept which I'd never been told that by other dentists. Professionally run office with low turnover of the staff. They stay on top of their game---you won't be disappointed.

  • My family and I have come to Excellent Dental Care (EDC) at both Tacoma and Auburn locations for the last 10 years. My sister and I had braces done by Dr. Thai. He did a very great job. The good part is we did not have to take any teeth out as we were told by others. Also, the staff is very friendly. They always make you feel comfortable. I highly recommend EDC for the dental care.

  • I really am starting to love this place the staff and my dentist make it feel like home. But I can only stay for another 6 months and I turn 21 which means I can't come anymore. which makes me sad because I really loved getting to know this place and how much the emphasize good dental hygiene has made me take flossing serious. I really going to miss this place!

    Our entire family have been patients of Dr.Nguyen for many years. They have taken great care of all of us with each person having a varied individual need and personality. Two of my sons are currently recovering Ortho treatment as well and he has been great. He explains everything in detail and his main concern is overall mouth and jaw health. It makes me feel good to know that we are taken care of completely and the staff all know us and I know they genuinely care. One of my children has special needs and he is now an adult but they have always taken time to work with him at his own level and ability. We have been to both the Auburn and Tacoma office and we truly appreciate the kind service we have always received, it is rare to have such a great team and staff that work so well together but they have it there.

  • My 3 children and my better half have been patients at this dental care center for 8 years, we trust their professional work and they are very careful and thorough with our children' s dental care. They treat everyone with respect that they deserve. We are grateful to find a family-oriented dental clinic that is willing to take the extra time to establish proper care and immaculate detail. The office manager is available to answer questions even when she is busy handling multiple patients. I would strongly recommend them due to their level of competence and their drive to continually improve on everything they do. Audrey and Thai are magnificent dentists. Thank you all for reading my review and have a wonderful day.

    Clinic is true with their name. Dental Care is excellent! 😬👍 Dentist and other staff are nice. Place is neat. Sufficient parking space. Only comment would be is that they should keep their facebook or website more active I guess.
