Since you’ll be spending quite a bit of time with your orthodontist throughout your treatment, get know the man behind Richard Chan Orthodontics. His name is, you guessed it, Dr. Richard Chan and he’s a certified specialist in orthodontics with serious tooth-straightening expertise
Dr. Richard Chan is a native of Kent, Washington. He received his dental degree from the UCLA College of Dentistry in Los Angeles, California. He then went on to complete his orthodontic specialty training at Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio (Go Buckeyes!). He specializes in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics for adults, teens and children. Hes a firm believer in technology, which is why hes trained in a variety of cutting-edge techniques such as Invisalign, ceramic braces, the use of temporary anchorage devices (TADS), soft tissue lasers and self-ligating braces including the Damon system. If something can make treatment speedier, safer and more effective for his patients, you better believe Dr. Chan is on top of it!
Dr. Chan is currently a member of the American Association of Orthodontists, the American Dental Association and the Washington State Dental Association and engages in continuing education to keep his skills extra sharp.
Dr. Chan takes a personalized approach to his patients care so they have a great orthodontic experience and are able to uncover the smiles they deserve. He enjoys interacting with his patients and their families and being a part of their lives. He knows that a lot of people would love straight teeth but cant afford it. Hes on a mission to change that by making high-quality treatment work for any budget.
When Dr. Chan isnt focused on teeth, you can usually find him with his wife and three children. The Chan family lives in Kirkland, Washington where theyre involved with the community and church. They love taking advantage of the beautiful natural scenery by getting outdoors as much as possible and spending time with friends and family.

I believe Dr. Richard Chan did terrible things to our kids.

I believe Dr. Richard Chan made his ten employees lied to the court: 1. Jennifer Banuelos, orthodontic clinician; 2. Belen Duron, receptionist; 3. Stephanie McGee, office manager; 4. Vanessa Fife, new patient coordinator; 5. Natalie Gutierrez, orthodontic clinician; 6. Isabella Sheka, orthodontic clinician; 7. Nicki Smith, orthodontic clinician; 8. Nicole Cash, receptionist; 9. Rhonda Lennon, a front office staff; 10. Lucy Lopez, orthodontic clinician. I'll give reasons & evidence why I believe that, and everyone with normal sense will think they are not honest.

I believe Dr. Richard Chan hired his upstairs business partner, Hello Kids Dentistry, to provide false evidence to the court. I reported what Dr. Richard Chan & Hello Kids did to the Attorney General's Office on 4/18/2022. I would recommend avoiding them entirely. Facts: (1). I never entered their clinic, but Hello Kids told the court they had "personal interactions" with me. (2). When I asked for the voice recordings, the officer manager, Alina Mager, replied to me on 3/25/2022 that they "have no access to any recordings over one year old from the current date". (3). Isabel Rodriguez, their dental assistant, only treated my son once in 2019 and my wife totally visited their clinic twice and both visits were in 2019. How can she still remember my wife in 2022? (4). And more......

I have been bringing Sasha and Bruce to Dr Chan for over 2 years, every one has been the very best in helping, & answering questions. The whole experience has been a wonderful and easy process for both Sasha and Bruce in getting their work done. I will always recommend Dr Chan if there is ever a opportunity to do so. Thank you so much

I really enjoyed my appointments at Richard Chang Orthodontist in Mill Creek. The staff has always been super sweet and helpful. I had braces for three years and I recently just got them off and I couldn't be happier with the results. They made the journey of braces super easy and helpful for me. I recommend!!!!

Dr. Chan and his staff are the best! Working with them for both of our daughters was so easy. They are flexible with scheduling , offer financing and made the experience generally pleasant and even fun with monthly drawings! I highly recommend them!

Pretty great! I don't have very many complaints, other than my jaw pops a lot and maybe some certain times when the wires were a little long and I had trouble with eating. Overall, everyone was super nice here. They were easy to communicate with, and they helped with any problems, questions, or concerns I had. Getting my braces off tomorrow. Excited!

Do not recommend! Had braces on and upon removal told them my bite was off, that I was biting my lip everytime i ate something, felt my bite was off and wasn't happy. Was literally told my mouth will get used to my new bite, which it hasn't! I have permanent cuts in my mouth because i literally cut it open when i eat if i am not paying attention! I now have tmj because my bite is off and am so unhappy with my experience. THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR WORK! Was told by Dr. Chan himself immediately after when I brought my concerns to him if I wasn't happy then I would need to find another orthodontist to correct it which I am now doing. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!

We have been involved with Richard Chan orthodontics for quite a few years. My son needed jaw surgery for a full correction and they referred us to a phenomenal surgeon. Throughout the years we have been going, they have been helpful and gone out of their way for my busy single-mom schedule. I cannot recommend their team highly enough.
