Staff was always friendly, efficient, and very professional, I really like the office. The Dental assistant performed the procedures I required quickly and quite painlessly. Exam was most thorough I've had, and clearly explained, and Dr. Chen answered my several questions. Overall they put me right at ease with soft voices, a gentle touch and a dose of humor... I'm going back, and will recommend this best dental office to others.

This is by far the best dental experience I've ever had!! I walked in an excruciating pain from my eyeballs to my ears to my tooth and they helped me by numbing the area prior to the x-rays so I wasn't being pain during the x-rays which was so relieving. I've been in excruciating pain for over 14 hours so the relief took me over. Then they figured out a plan of action and we were able to get started right there and then. During the procedure I felt no pain. She was very good and fast. I go back tomorrow to finish and I am so relieved to not have to deal with that tooth pain anymore. If I could give six stars I would. They also have very personable staff everybody was very nice to me and welcoming and I got seen in a decent amount of time the overall experience was six stars

Fortunately, I overheard someone talking about this plan when visiting my oral surgeon. I saved 30% on an expensive surgery by using A+ Dental.com.

This dental plan is great. I found the insurance cost me much more than the A+ Dental for the same services.

A+ Dental makes dental costs more affordable. Their schedule of plans makes it a little confusing as to which one to choose, for the best price.

I appreciate the fact that A+ Dental saves money every time I visit the dentist. I like the discount offered on the premium for early renewal.

Have had no issues with service thus far. Have been dealing with this company for 8 plus years. This is a dental savings plan and it has done just that.

I have had A+ Dental family coverage off and on for the last 7-8 years. Definitely a benefit for those without A+ Dental coverage. We save more than 50% on services provided by our dentist.
