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?

  • I was tired of being marketed by dentists. Always pushing me to do implants or root canals, etc. So I went shopping for a new dentist and tried Excellent Dental Care. They understood my desire to keep the teeth I have and maintain good dental care. The team is friendly and professional, but their greatest asset is their willingness to listen to you and work with you for your dental care.

    Awesome place to go...my past dentist moved his practice out of state some years ago and I bounced around place to place trying to find a good dentist when we gave Excellent Dental a try. It's been almost four years at this office now and we love it. Friendly staff, great care and service. Audrey and Thai are the absolute best! You will not be disappointed 🙂

  • I have been there three times and each time they have been awesome! I worked with both the husband and wife and both interactions they took their time to explain what they were doing.

    They give a step by step of what they are doing so if at any point you dont want a particular service you dont need to end up paying for it, but they give the options. Friendly and personable. Only been twice so far but will be going back, especially as they are open one Saturday a month which is helpful with my work schedule

  • 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.

    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.

  • After not going to the dentist for years, I had several things that needed attention. I randomly located Excellent Dental Care and so thankful I did. They have addressed all my issues and have been very efficient fixing them. Not only are they detailed, but strive for perfection for the health of your smile. I’ve always felt welcomed and treated with fantastic customer service. I will always recommend Excellent Dental Care. I do not plan to go anywhere else for my care.

    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!

  • 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 have had 70 years experience with dentistry both as a patient and as a chair side assistant. Most recently I visited Dr Audrey Nguyen DDS. She is the best dentist I have had the pleasure of visiting. She is so gentle and cares deeply about the comfort of her patients. She takes time to discuss cares, concerns and treatment options. A big concern for most people is having to wait endlessly for their appointments...NEVER with Dr Nguyen. She respects her patient's time. I have been seated right after check in at the front desk. The office staff is friendly and professional. The office and the treatment areas are always very clean and well organized. I highly recommend Excellent Dental care for all your dental needs for any age. Thank you.

    Excellent dental care was very patient with my 14 year old daughter. She went very nervous but by the time she came out she was calm and happy. They realy took the time to make sure she was comfortable. This is an amazing dentist I highly recommend them to people that have a difficult time with the dentist.
