I was having trouble breathing when sleeping. I went to see Dr Nguyen to get some advice. She was patient and kind throughout the visit. She made me feel like family. She gave me solid information about my anatomy and a roadmap to get better. I am breathing well at night again and feel like a new person thanks to Dr Nguyen's great care.

This place was awesome, EVERYONE IS SO FRIENDLY. Best dental experience I've had yet. Hygienist Kelly did an amazing job for the cleaning, I was very comfortable and felt extremely well taken care of. She is the best! Would definitely recommend this place to people.

I have been coming to see Dr. Ann for about a year now and overall my experience has been positive. When Covid hit, my previous dentist retired and I found it difficult to find a new dentist, hence I ended up missing a couple of my regular visits. Since coming to this office, I am now back on track. My last visit a few weeks ago, I saw Kelly the hygienist as she was as friendly as she was efficient cleaning my teeth. I look forward to my next visit.

I've always thought snoring was normal, but I've been waking up with aches and pains as well. At my recent checkup visit, I had my 3D image taken and Dr. Ann thoroughly reviewed and explained my conditions. I've since been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. Dr. Ann immediately placed me in a rescue appliance, which is extremely easy to wear, but most importantly, I've been waking up feeling more refreshed. My sleep has been so much better. I cannot wait to complete my active treatment with Dr. Ann, which is completely natural and non-invasive so I never have to be dependent on a CPAP machine or any oral appliance. I'm so thankful Dr. Ann cares about my overall health.

So my friend had a toothache so I referred her to Dr Nguyen's office, knowing what a great reputation this office has. My friend calls the office and could not believe how professional,accommodating and friendly the front office was. They were able to get her an appointment immediately and not only that but they emailed her the new patient forms that she was able to fill out online and submit. When she arrived, she was greeted with smiles and taken back to be seen without any waiting what so ever even though the office was very busy and full of patients. My friend told me that Dr Nguyen was amazing, knowledgeable and friendly dentist who was able to address her toothache. She now is a patient for life at Dr Ann Nguyen's office.

It is the day after my first appointment with Woodbridge Dentistry and I am feeling little to no pain. Sensitive when I eat but that was to be expected. The procedure itself went amazing, quick and for someone who has a true fear of the sound of drilling, the process wasn't horrible. I drowned out the sound with music but it was the shots that they did well here. I was completely numb and didn't feel anything but slight pressure. I had a bad experience but they made it feel easy here. They messaged me afterwards to ensure I stay connected. They have shown me great care and everyone in the office I have met has been so welcoming and kind especially for being a new patient. It's hard finding a new dentist but they made it super easy.

--Update for even more good experience-- There is no enough compliment for this clinic. They do everything. I mean it. They don't send you around other specialities to finish your treatment. Your root canal, extraction, implant, Invisalign, sleep apnea, you name it. You are under the same high quality of care and supervision through the entire process, so you are always in peace of mind. Again, plus, treatment is pleasant, no pain at all. -------------- We are seeing Dr. Ann for all my family. Always trustable in here. Doctor takes her time to exam and answers any kind of question from us. She doesn't hide anything, so I can trust what she says. My son finished his Invisalign treatment this year and he is very happy with his teeth. My 10 yo daughter came yesterday for her never-come-off baby tooth. She had it with the permanent tooth and is hoping it would come off soon, but it did not happen. So I took her to Dr. Ann, then doctor took the baby tooth out in a second with no pain at all. My daughter said "I should have this done more earlier!!" Dr. Ann is my kids' most favorite dentist.

Unfortunately, about 14 years ago, it was necessary for me to receive very high doses of radiation for cancer treatment and it has really done a horrible number on my teeth. In addition to that, I've had some REALLY BAD dental care for the last ten years from two separate dentists. When I finally came to see Dr. Nguyen for the first time my teeth looked so bad I was embarrassed to smile. Every time I'd catch myself smiling I would stop because I didn't want my teeth to show. And I'm the kind of person who smiles a lot. It's just natural for me. I don't even think about it. As a kid, I smiled so much I was actually called "smiley" for a while. I'm just a happy person by nature. Well, I just finished my second appointment with Dr. Nguyen and she's a miracle worker! I'm not kidding! Not only is she super smart and super sweet, she's compassionate, too. She and her staff made sure to squeeze me in today because they knew how much my ugly teeth were affecting my life. What a blessing Dr. Nguyen has been to me. She gave me my smile back! And I'd lost any hope of ever feeling comfortable with my smile again. Thank you, Dr Nguyen, from the bottom of my heart. I wish I could give her MORE than five stars! Her staff is amazing too, by the way. So if you want AMAZING dental care from a compassionate, talented, knowledgeable, and kind dentist then Dr. Ann Nguyen is the dentist for you.

Dr. Nguyen is so gentle and skilled at her craft! She takes the time to talk to you and she clearly explains everything to you without judgement or negativity. She is one of the best dentists I have ever seen and I would most certainly recommend her and her team (thanks Kay)! Please make her your new dentist, you will not look anywhere else. I was not paid for this recommendation.

Hmmm, where do I start?! First of all, even though I'm 50, I'm worse that a 5 year old when it comes to visiting the dentist. Anyway, let me start by saying that FABI (DR. Ann's right hand gal) will do whatever she can to help make you feel relaxed. Even is she's not in the room with me sometimes, just knowing I can ask for her is comforting. Team FABI all the way! Now Dr. Ann! Dr. Ann is AMAZING! I was referred to her about a year ago from one of my besties. She saw me as an 'emergency patient' Trust me, it was a TRUE emergency. I had a tooth extracted on 7/3! I could NOT have waited the holiday weekend. THANK YOU Dr. Ann!!! A year later and yet another emergency! Dr. Ann to the rescue! Dr. Ann says: you need a root canal! You get a root canal! Pain still there?! Dr. Ann, 'don't make me numb you to clean your gum!' You stop moving and let her do her magic! Dr. Ann, you need to buy a water pik! You BUY-THE-FREAKING-WATER-PIK!!! AND THEN......I had to get a deep cleaning. Let me say: JULIE was so kind and so gentle, simply amazing!!! I was terrified when I went in, but in all honesty, it was pretty painless, and my teeth are feeling amazing. Dr. Ann and FABI, I'll trust them with all my dental needs from here on out. DR. Ann IS THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS!!!

I had many unpleasant dental visits in the past which caused me to be nervous whenever I see a dentist. A friend of mine recommended Woodbridge Dentistry, and I am extremely glad that I found Dr. Ann. I had an appointment for tooth filling and deep cleaning. Both Dr. Ann and Edith (the hygienist) was gentle, knowledgeable and professional. The front staff and the back staff were friendly and helpful as well. I did not have to wait 30-45 minutes like the dental offices I visited in the past. I arrived for my appointment, and the staff immediately took care of me. Both Dr. Ann and the hygienist did not rush through the procedures. They made sure that I am okay and explained to me throughout the procedures. I can tell that they value quality over quantity at Woodbridge Dentistry. Thanks for taking care of my dental needs. I highly recommend Woodbridge Dentistry

Dr. Nguyen is the best dentist I have ever had, hands down. She is gentle, thorough and thoughtful. She has excellent bedside manner and always makes me feel at ease, even when I'm nervous about having work done. I normally put off going to the dentist because it makes me nervous, but it is easy for me to keep up with my appointments when I am seeing Dr. Nguyen because she makes the experience so comfortable. I recently moved to the Bay Area and Dr. Nguyen's office is one of the things I miss about OC. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those who are nervous about the dentist.

I want to thank Dr. Nguyen and her staff for everything they've done for me. I'm so glad I switched dental offices because Dr. Nguyen doesn't sugar coat, she will let you know what's wrong with your teeth and what needs to be done ASAP. I had a dental emergency that happened at night and she responded quickly even when it was after hours. That showed me she truly cares for her patients, and what was also nice she got me in the next morning. Her staff are always pleasant and professional. I definitely recommend this office if you're looking for a new Dr.

I used to be a nomad when it came to my dentist. I never really found one that I fully trusted until I stumbled upon Dr. Nguyen and her staff. I've been going here for years. Dr. Nguyen and her staff makes you feel comfortable and does an amazing job. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a dentist in the OC area.
