I have been practicing in Pasadena since 1994 with extensive experience in dental implants as well as all phases of cosmetic / general / family dentistry. An integral part of my philosophy is clients have athorough understanding of their treatment and options which include practical solutionswith state of the art dentistry.Your comfort and confidence is my upmost priority.

As a Dentist, my desire is to give patients the best care possible by drawing from my diverse experiences in general and family dentistry. There are three reasons why I enjoy dentistry: meeting new patients and deepening relationships with current patients; relieving patients of pain or discomfort; and giving patients a beautiful, confident smile. I strive to develop my career through continual education and professional enrichment. A high priority of mine is to reduce patients fear and anxiety, making them as comfortable as possible. For generations Pasadena is where our family has called home, raising our children and involved in our community.

I have been a patient of Mak & Kleiger for years. This is because the services I receive here are stellar. They are the best and I deserve the best services. Dr. Max and Michelle are my go to persons. But, I have also interacted with the other dentists and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend them especially if you are someone who have anxiety about going to the dentist. They are very sensitive and will treat you with great care. They are also very honest.

I have been a loyal patient here for more than 20 years. I have no doubt as to the high standard of care I always receive. I wouldn't switch, I'm very happy with how they have treated me and will continue to have my dental needs taken care of by Drs. Mak and Kleiger.
