I had to get quite a few fillings done and Dr. Lin took really good care of me for all of them. I get anxious about needles and he made sure to explain the numbing process and provided comfort and encouragement. He was very gentle during the fillings; I have honestly never felt that calm while getting fillings done. He was also very thorough when explaining next steps and made sure that my questions were answered. Overall, I really appreciated his calm-demeanor, patience, and kindness. Thanks Dr. Lin!

Dr. Lin fixed me up after I got a tooth knocked out. On top of providing fantastic care and getting my tooth back in and secured, Dr. Lin was exceptional in a number of ways. He was very patient and thorough, answering all of my and my parents questions in great detail. He made sure I knew what was going on and printed extra copies for me and my parents of all the X-rays he took; he also clearly showed us on the X-rays what was wrong and how he intended to fix it (and then how he had fixed it after the tooth was back in place). Dr. Lin was very kind and treated me like an adult. I couldnt be more satisfied with how everything went.

Dr. Lin and his staff are awesome. Courteous and professional. They explain everything before proceeding. They made sure I was comfortable and checked in with me often while performing the procedure. I highly recommend them.

I recently moved to a new area and wanted to find a convenient and dependable dentist nearby. I decided to go to Dr. Lin after doing some research. My first visit was just a routine check-up with x-rays and cleaning. Kim was a delight to chat with and made the cleaning and x-ray experience a breeze. Dr. Lin has a nifty little camera that he can use to take pictures of the inside of your mouth to show patients exactly what he's talking about. He was very communicative, knowledgeable, patient, and empathetic the entire time. I went in again the following week to get two fillings, one for a chipped tooth. He did a BEAUTIFUL job, and my teeth look great! I look forward to more visits with Dr. Lin and his fantastic team!

One of the best dentists in our area. He had tremendously improved my dental health. He has a way of clarifying your concerns, listens to you, has excellent bedside manners and answers all your questions in a way that helps you understand the issues. He takes his time with you and recommends the best treatment options for you. He has a relaxed manner that puts you in a calm state of mind during procedures. Overall, he's an amazing dentist, kind and a very caring doctor. Appointment scheduling went so well. They got me in soon and his staff is extremely sweet and friendly. Alicia, Jessica, Mikayla and the rest of his staff go above and beyond to provide excellent comfort and care when your mind and body are in an anxious state of mind. The ladies that have assisted in my treatments made me feel so comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Lin for his professionalism, his knowledge, his care and his amazing staff!

Dr Lin and everyone in the office are wonderful. I have had an awful fear of going to the dentist office since my lifelong dentist retired. From the moment I arrived they put me at ease. I never felt rushed and each person took me time to make me feel important. I always felt that I was their priority. I won't say that I enjoy the dentist but I don't fear going to Dr.Lin's office.

Dr. Lin has a gentle manner and his work is excellent! I had my first root canal and cavities filled under Dr. Lin's care. In each case, Dr. Lin was able to periodically show me the work he was doing by easily taking photos and showing me on the patient monitor. I like to know what is being done and Dr. Lin was happy to explain and show me. Dr. Lin's work was perfect and I had no complications. I could not have asked for better experiences. Dr. Lin's staff are very friendly and helpful and just as nice and gentle as Dr. Lin. I highly recommend Dr. Lin and his staff.

Have been very pleased with Dr. Lin. He joined Dr. Trent's office prior to his retirement and the transition has been seamless. Still very clean office, smooth scheduling and responsive if there is a need.

I typically do not write reviews but after getting my fillings from Dr. Lin...I must say that Dr. Lin is beyond amazing!! He is the most caring, patient, gentle, respectful, and attentive dentist that I have ever encountered - top tier bedside manners. On top of that, he has chosen such great staff members to work alongside him. I will definitely be a regular patient.

I've had several great experiences with Dr Lin and his team since he took over Dr Trent's practice. Dr Lin is a top tier Dentist. Appointments have been easy to book, no wait upon arrival and gentle expert care. My visits covered cleaning, fillings with no pain, mouth guard fitting and an emergency crown fix originally done by a prior dentist. I was grateful that the staff shuffled their schedule and gave up their lunch to fix my crown only a few hours after it had fallen off. I moved from Los Gatos to Santa Cruz 4 years ago but make the drive over the hill because I value having a highly skilled Dentist like Dr Lin. My wife is a school teacher in Santa Cruz and also sees Dr Lin for the same reasons.
