Our commitment to high-quality dentistry for those in and around Mililani and Waipahu runs throughout our practice, but it all starts from the top with our wonderful dentist. Wed like to introduce you to Dr. Jaclyn M. Palola!
Dr. Palola was born and raised in Ewa. She graduated from Hanalani High School in Mililani as the class valedictorian. She moved on to the University of Hawaii at Manoa where she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics. While there, she was also honored as a Board of Regents Scholar.
Dr. Palola loves getting lost in a good book, watching sci-fi shows, attending barre class, and attempting karaoke in her (increasingly shrinking) spare time. While her schedule can be hectic, she wouldnt have it any other way; she truly enjoys caring for patients and giving them healthy smiles that they can show off with pride.
Dr. Fukada was born and raised in Mililani, HI and graduated from Iolani School. She then attended the University of Puget Sound, where she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology. She earned her Doctorate of Dental Surgery at the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine. She is very excited to return home and serve her Hawaii community. She then attended Creighton University, where she received her Bachelors of Science degree in Biology. She earned her Doctorate of Dental Surgery at University of Missouri Kansas City School of Dentistry, and completed a General Practice Residency at the Queens Medical Center. She is very grateful for the opportunity to return home and serve the people in her community.
In her spare time, Dr. Fukada enjoys discovering new restaurants, viewing sunsets at the beach, and going on adventures with her French bulldog. You might also find her learning how to surf on the south shore.

First time visit as I was looking for a new Dentist since transferring from the mainland. My experience with the staff overall was very good. I highly recommend them for anyone who's looking for a new dentist or want to change to a new one.

All the staff are very welcoming, and helpful! They have been the best office I have ever been to. Very polite and knowledgeable. They take very good care of their clients. I highly recommend them for adults and children. My son who is 5 was very scared, being his first time, they made him feel comfortable and took very good care of him! Thank you Palola and staff!

I've had a lot of dentists over the years and Dr. Palola has by far been the best. Not only is she a wonderful doctor but she truly cares for her patients. Her staff is excellent as well. Most people dread the dentist, but every time I went to her office I was treated like family and actually looked forward to going. Couldn't have found a better dentist if I tried!

At long last I have found a top notch, exceptional, gentle and caring dentist in Dr. Palola! That is saying a lot for someone like me with an INTENSE fear and anxiety about going to the dentist. But as I age, I came to realize how important good oral hygiene is to overall health. So I researched the internet for many days before I finally got up the courage to make an appointment with Dr. Palola and I'm so glad I did. Because of past neglect, I have significant problems, but Dr. Palola and her team are giving me my smile back! In addition to Dr. Palola's great technical skills, the entire staff is very caring and do their utmost to make me comfortable. If you're looking for a super skilled and caring dentist I highly recommend Dr. Palola and her team. To get my smile back is priceless!

I've been coming to Dr Palola for several years. She is the most incredible dentist I've ever met. The office is clean, cozy and they offer blankets, neck pillows and Netflix. Everyone is warm and caring. Dr and staff explain procedures very well. Dr Palola has excellent bed side manner, and she always goes above and beyond for her patients. She referred me to an amazing oral surgeon, Dr. Kitamura, when I needed it, and took a lot of time out of her schedule to consult me over the phone. She's very thorough, there's never a wait, you don't feel rushed, and it's clear the office is excellently managed. She takes a personal interest in her patients and her work really shows it. If that wasn't enough, she also gives back to community through various charities! She's truly a dentist from heaven, and I am so happy to have found her!

Last visit, I had a crown installed. The visit was uneventful just as you want it to be when you visit a dentist! Don't know how they treat other patients but I was treated like a King. Everything was done to ensure my comfort during my short visit. I was asked if I wanted to watch the TV while I waited for the shot to numb me kicked in and everything was explained to me before it took place. No surprises. Thinking back maybe that was the best aspect of the visit. As a patient having your mouth wide open and someone working on your teeth, you don't have much input to what's going on so when it's explained to you before it happens it lessens the anxiety of the procedure. Great job! I recommend Dr Palola and her staff to anyone needing an excellent dentist.

When I first walked into the office, the first thing I noticed was how clean and beautifully decorated the front office is. I received a cleaning from Grace and she made me feel very comfortable and took care of all my concerns. I then saw Dr. Palola to repair a chipped filling and she took such great care of me. Every staff member was very kind and friendly. I highly recommend this office!!!

the Waiting area is clean and inviting, videos of taste made and some of the comfiest couches i've ever had the pleasure of sitting in. Staff is so polite and kind, Adrian (hope i'm spelling that right) even gave me a blanket to borrow while I sat in the chair. I am always freezing in offices even when I bring a jacket so this was so fantastic. :) there's tv screens to watch so the visit seems to go faster. comprehensive and quick service from the doctor and staff, overall fantastic experience. Would recommend to anyone.
