    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.

  • 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.

  • I don't really understand the negative reviews. They seem completely out of character. I've been taking myself and my family here for the past two years. They are always very detailed and descriptive in my treatment options and the processes that will take place. They are always willing to work around my schedule, they do a very good job making sure my appointments are confirmed, and they treat me like a friend when I show up for my appointments. I highly reccomend these folks for your dental care needs.

    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.

  • We are surprise not seeing many reviews online, good nor bad. Perhaps they operate on word of mouth and referals. You can't go wrong, either from staff to Doctors, and to their new relaxing building. Keep up the good work!! Thank you.

    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.

  • Just took my two little ones in for their first dental visit abs was super nervous for my kids. But everyone there made it a great experience for us. So much so that my son asked if r could go back again tomorrow! Haha Definitely recommend!!!

    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

  • 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.

    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. You will not be disappointed 🙂

  • 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.

    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!

  • 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.

    From the friendly staff, to the excellent doctors, if you ever want to be treated like family this is the place to go. They call and leave you nice reminders before every appointment and make sure you don't miss your cleanings. Best of all they work around your schedule!

  • The doctors and staff were absolutely wonderful. They got me in right away and took care of my root canal in record time.

    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!
