Hands down, this is the best Pediatric dental clinic! Dr Yang and her team are amazing and super patient! Many incentives, little toys and rewards for kids after dental check up. What a great encouragement for my little one who always refuse to go to dentists! Also Dr Tran is a great communicator! My daughter was first turned down from other orthodontists because my daughter was nervous and fussy. However, Dr Tran was able to calm her down and made everything went so smoothly! Thank you Dr Tran!

I've been so pleased with MV kids dentist and braces. The staff is helpful, and kind. Dr. Yang is fantastic. We had a big break between visits and there was no shaming, just helpful and informative on how to keep my kids teeth healthy. They also work so quickly to make the whole process fast and easy. It's a bonus that my kids loved the balloon as we left. Update Sept 2022 We continue to use and love MV Kids. One of my kids is now on braces and Dr. Tran is wonderful! He's fast and makes the process fun. He also makes time to engage with my kid so the whole time is enjoyable. The front desk staff continues to be great. They are kind and easy to work with when I need to make changes or have extra questions.

The appointment was fast and thorough. Staff were professional and very welcoming. Dr. Yang patiently answered all my questions and interacted patiently with my two kids who are 7 and 3. This was my 3-year olds first visit. My kids loved their visit today. Highly recommend this office.

Their billing process suddenly becomes a mess! Not recommend at all! We have been seeing Dr. Yang for 3+ years. Both me and my two kids like the professional care we got from Dr. Yang. It used to be a happy experience. However, things suddenly changed after the pandemic. Starting from last year, we have to pay for an estimated amount of money before the visit. The front-desk confirmed that we would get reimbursement from our insurance and the bill would be fully covered. We only take the semi-annual checkups and cleans, no special treatment at all. It was true last year. We paid $236 for two kids and got fully reimbursed. However, for the most recent visit this year, we were charged $540 for two kids after reassured by the front-desk that we would get it reimbursed. In about two weeks, we got the claim from the insurance and only part of the payment was covered. I called the office for clarification. They said because they were out-of-network. It was unclear to me when they started to become out-of-network and why we didn't get any notifications about the change. They said they were out-of-network on day 1. It doesn't make any sense why the former visits were fully reimbursed, but not this one. They didn't give any more explanation, but asked myself to contact the insurance company. After a few back-and-forth phone calls, they finally agreed to mail us a check for partial reimbursement, but again, not fully reimbursed. I'm really upset about the experience!

Dr. Yang has seen my kids 4 and 6yo about 8 times, she is very sweet, professional and does a thorough job cleaning and advising proper care. My kids are excited to come back! The office staff is very kid friendly and so is the office setting. Beautiful paintings and a nice play area that is clean. I feel my children are getting top class care at MV Kids Dentists!
