Best dentist in Irvine, explained every procedure clearly and I felt I was in safe hands at all times. Dr. Don is very knowledgeable and was very nice throughout my wisdom teeth surgery. Highly recommend Dr. Don.

I appreciated Dr. Don's educational explanation of what work was being done and why, as well as his mindfulness regarding patient comfort and costs when working with me to identify the best solutions for my dental health. The work was high-quality. His staff is skilled and kind. I feel totally comfortable recommending them to anyone.

I was with Dr. Don for about 5 years. While most of the work he did was of good quality, there were some issues with bite adjustment that allowed teeth to move and trap food. The main issue I had, however, was a serious mistake he made while working on a root canal. Apparently one of his tools broke and he failed to remove a small metal piece from the tooth. As he continued working he pressed this piece into my bone where it got wedged. He closed the tooth without explaining to me what had happened. Having this metal piece in my bone caused mild inflammation. He did not treat this tooth for about 2-3 years, leaving it with inflammation and never explaining to me what was causing the problem. Then one day the crown came off and he recommended extraction. At this time I went to another dentist to get a second opinion and learned what had happened as we reviewed the X-rays. I had to undergo surgery to remove the piece and clean the infection.

Professional. Personable. Persistent. Dr. Don and his entire staff provides excellent service. Word of mouth has always played a crucial part of my decision making. I was first recommended by one of my co-workers and both of us have had great experience. To those reading this, please know that it is always a pleasure to enter his office, and his entire staff will address any detail or concern you have. Cleanliness, hospitality, honesty, accuracy, maintenance, quality, efficiency, and friendliness are all the highlights of Dr. Don and staff. The usage of the latest technology and wonderful both business and dental practices allows you feel safe, and well treated. Receiving text messages, email, and phone call reminders are extra features that I opt-in and only a few offices do so. Thus, in the overall performance and customer satisfaction comes with a highly recommendation.

I love this office. Dr Don and his entire staff are very professional and caring. I appreciated that the plan of care was submitted to me along with all copays and possible costs to me. Dr Don knows how to give a shot with no pain involved. I felt I was in great hands and truly cared about from the moment I walked in until I left this office.

Dr. Don and his staff are welcoming, friendly and super organized. Dr. Don uses the latest dental technology to make processes more comfortable and quicker for his patients. He made an overall dental plan for me and used visuals and clear explanations so I would understand the need and the process. All of my dental procedures have gone well. I feel I am in good hands both with Dr. Don and each one of his staff. This office works together cooperatively and professionally.

I came as a referral from a co-worker who praised this office. After my first experience I was very impressed by Dr. Don and his staff. Dr. Don was able to give me a very complete analysis of my mouth and summed everything up pretty succinctly. Everyone in the office is very pleasant and make you feel at home. I would highly recommend Dr. Don and staff to anyone!

I can't recommend Dr. Don highly enough. He and his staff are extremely efficient, professional, and friendly-- the most so I've ever experienced. Dr. Don expertly addresses even the slightest details about your teeth, leaving no stone unturned. If you live in the Irvine area and want the best service available, look no further.
