    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.

  • 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.

    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!

  • My entire family has been attending Excellent Dental Care for over 10+ years, ever since I was a child, so EDC has been a household staple for us and our extended family. We've had several family members get braces at EDC, with absolutely excellent results. They're extremely efficient, professional and provide service in multiple languages to ensure accessibility. The staff is always so welcoming and we love going there for our semi-annual check ups. Thank you all for your years of service that you have provided and will continue to provide for our family! I highly recommend.

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Andy Nguyen Avatar Andy Nguyen

    We’ve been to a lot of dentists and always had problems in the past. The dentists here are AMAZING. They have all the latest equipment, very knowledgeable, and affordable. The staff is also very knowledgeable (especially Lynn) and very helpful and sincere about their clients. We highly recommend Excellent Dental Care to everyone.

  • 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 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.

  • 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!
