  • 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!

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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 love this place so much, I’ve been going here for years along with my family! The most friendliest staff you can ever meet who make you feel like family. 10/10 recommend this place for anyone who’s looking for a new dental place to go to!!!

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

    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.

    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!

  • 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

    If you are looking for a family dentist please look no further. I have been coming here since I was a little girl. I appreciate their diverse staff that are able to speak different languages. This creates a welcoming environment. My siblings had their braces done here and their results are stunning. My semiannual cleaning are always quick but thorough. All of their staff are very professional and they care about making you feel comfortable. I never leave without a smile or feeling like I did not receive a good cleaning. My extended family comes here as well and we are grateful that there are two locations. They work with your schedule. I highly recommend this establishment.

  • 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?
