I began my Invisalign treatment in late February in hopes to realign my teeth for my wedding, which was supposed to be in late March. Due to COVID 19 and the Shelter in Place orders, my wedding has unfortunately been postponed; however, my orthodontist Dr. Cheng and her team have been wonderfully communicative, helpful, and compassionate throughout – Dr. Cheng has even initiated virtual check ups so she could check in with me and track my orthodontic treatment so I do not need to worry about traveling in to the office. I am very pleased with the technology, professionalism, and cleanliness that Dr. Cheng and her team have and uphold – especially through these trying times!

I’m really happy with my Invisalign results! I started my Invisalign journey a little over a year ago. After extensive research about Invisalign and orthodontists in the Bay Area, I decided to get a consultation with Dr. Cheng. She is very knowledgeable about Invisalign and managed difficult cases like mine before. Now, a year later, I finally have the smile I wanted! Thanks so much to Dr. Cheng!

Dr. Cheng is a compassionate and skilled orthodontist that is committed to the highest standards of patient care. She is also a thought leader in her space and a very nice person. I would recommend Dr. Cheng.

Emily G. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been seeing Dr. Cheng for about 8 months now while receiving my Invisalign treatment. I just completed my final tray and can honestly say I am ecstatic on how my smile turned out! She was so lovely during the whole process and her staff was absolutely amazing! I had tried Invisalign before about 7 years ago and was disappointed, CitiDent has all the state of the art equipment which truly made a difference in my Invisalign experience this time around. The practice was also very clean! If you are looking to better your smile in San Francisco I would highly recommend Dr. Cheng!! Thank you so much Dr. Cheng!!

★★★★★

I finished Invisalign treatment with Dr. Cheng today and am genuinely amazed at the speed and thoroughness of the visual transformation. Before starting treatment, my teeth were unusually rotated and misaligned. In recent months – even before I reached the final tray – friends and family began to remark on the dramatic improvement in my smile. I’m very, very pleased with the outcome and would recommend treatment with Dr. Cheng to anyone without hesitation.

Scott F. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Just started my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Amanda Cheng and the service has been great! The entire experience from the initial consultation to actual treatment has gone really well. Her knowledge is second to none! Every question I ask gets a very thorough response! very nice and down to earth and too. Highly recommended! Thanks!!

S. R. from San Jose, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Doctor Cheng is the best Orthodontist! I did Invisalign with her and the treatment was fast and seamless. She has a great eye for esthetics and I love my new smile! I don’t think other “in house 3D printed Aligner companies” will do as good of a job as Invisalign. I know that Invisalign is more expensive than other DIY Aligner companies in San Francisco like Smile Direct Club but I prefer to get the best for my only set of teeth. Highly recommend Dr. Cheng and her office for anyone that works at Google, Salesforce or Instagram since her office is right around the corner and super convenient.

★★★★★

Dr.Amanda Chang is the best orthodontist in San Francisco. I tried to do Candid but failed so the DIY orthodontics doesn’t work! My teeth also got very loose and there was a lot of spacing . Dr. Cheng completed my treatment afterwards with Invisalign in only 6 months and my bite is so comfortable! Go see a specialist if you value your smile and your health! Don’t try to save Money and attempt teeth straightening on your own.

★★★★★

I had a great experience getting my Invisalign done with Dr. Cheng. The process started back when she was at CitiDent and now at her new office, Days To Smile. She is very detailed and takes every feedback and concern into account. I was so glad to hear that I could do Invisalign in the beginning and even though it took almost 2 yrs to complete, I finally have straight and healthy teeth and a big smile! 🙂

B. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr.Cheng is Great with Invisalign! She has a lot of experience and is able to treat difficult cases like mine. She is very meticulous with her clincheck and so her treatment time is shorter and her results are beautiful. I would highly recommend her to anyone who does not want to have multiple refinements and change dozens of aligners without getting the desired outcome. I am so happy that my Invisalign didn’t drag out for years. Thank you Dr.Cheng!

James S. from San Jose, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Best dental practice I have seen, experienced, and heard of! You can tell as soon as you walk in the positive and friendly vibe. Clean, “homely” yet clinical, and very nice views of the SF officeline (if you’re sitting upright, of course!).  Dr. Cheng is simply the best. Excellent knowledge and communication of that knowledge, and really goes the extra mile to explain the origin, evolution, and potential solutions to you. No time was spent waiting, plan of attack formed, and ready for the next session! Thanks to all!

Got my braces here with Dr. Cheng and it has been a year. Nothing but great experiences. She’s very accommodating and takes the time to listen to your concerns. Especially when I currently live in Sacramento. Our bimonthly visit are thorough and she makes sure I have enough supply before our next visit. Clean and up to date facility. Highly recommend.

Thomas L. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Amanda Cheng is caring and detailed oriented. Throughout the Invisalign process she has actively communicated my treatment and has taken the time to explain my progress. Thankful for her team’s hard work during COVID to keep us smiling. Also, they have taken precautions to keep everyone clean and safe during visits.

★★★★★

I had braces twice when I was younger and while my teeth didn’t move drastically, my front teeth began to chip a bit because they were hitting each other. I was curious about Invisalign to fix this problem and started asking for quotes. Days To Smile recommended a much shorter treatment plan than others and at a much lower cost. Covid ended up forcing my treatment plan to be longer than planned, but Dr. Cheng offered virtual appointments that were very helpful. I am totally happy with my results!

Vu P. from Westminster, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I had a really good experience throughout my orthodontic treatments here. The office is modern and I always felt like I received some of the best patient care here. Dr. Cheng was very thorough in answering any questions I had and I always felt safe here during the covid lockdowns. I am very satisfied with the way my teeth turned out and highly recommend going here for invisalign!

★★★★★

Dr. Cheng is a skilled and compassionate orthodontist who goes out of her way to to provide quality care to her patients. Before I saw Dr. Cheng for a revision Invisalign treatment, I had seen general dentist whose aligners left me with a messed up bite. Dr. Cheng both further straightened my teeth as well as corrected my bite. I learned the hard way: having Invisalign done by anyone other than a Board Certified Orthodontist can be a waste of time and money. Dr. Cheng is one of the best orthodontists in San Francisco and I would highly recommend her to adults seeking orthodontic care.

Tiffany K. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I chose Dr. Cheng because she seemed extremely knowledgeable and experienced, she genuinely seemed to care about my condition, and because of all her perfect scores on Yelp. She not only corrected the problems I had with Smile Direct Club and straightened my teeth, but she also made sure I got help with my gum recession and bone loss by recommending her periodontist Dr. Fateh. She can be blunt at times but I appreciated her honesty and that is part of why I chose her. I don’t feel like my previous dentists conveyed how serious my bone loss was until I talked to Dr. Cheng. Thank you Dr. Cheng for taking on my difficult case!

★★★★★

I am really happy with the results from my orthodontics treatment, Dr. Cheng had to work with a group of specialists including prosthodontists and oral surgeons to help fix my bite so that I can chew and have implants placed in the correct position . I was always embarrassed by smile and now I can’t stop smiling! My recommendation is to take advantage of SIP and get all the dental work done so that when you do start socializing, you will have a brilliant smile

★★★★★

Dr. Cheng is the best orthodontist, and her office location is so convenient in downtown San Francisco! I came to her for my Invisalign treatment and she was thoughtful and knowledgable in selecting the best plan for me. My case is particularly challenging because I had a cross-bite and slight underbite, but Dr. Cheng was able to correct for that using the Invisalign and rubber bands without surgery, which was a big priority for me. Even after COVID-19 hit, we were able to continue treatment through virtual appointments and telemedicine, and she was attentive in checking up on me and making sure that my teeth were aligning properly. When I went in to collect more rubber bands, her clinic was safe and spotless: she and all her staff wore gloves and masks and sanitized everything before, during, and after visits. She also uses state-of-the-art technology, and as a techie, I enjoyed seeing the modern equipment and software, including the 3-D images of my own teeth and their simulated movements over the course of the treatment. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for orthodontics!

Mike S. from Financial District, San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

A couple years ago I learned that all the years of migraines, nighttime teeth grinding, and daytime fatigue were the result of extreme sleep apnea. I came to Dr. Cheng after visits to several other medical professionals and she was the first to recommend a combination of orthodontics and sleep surgery. It worked like a charm! In fact, I just had the braces removed earlier today (marking the end of the process) and I couldn’t be happier! I have a great smile, I don’t grind my teeth, and I’ve never slept better. The care I’ve received over the last couple years has really been exceptional. THANK YOU Amanda and the Days to Team!!

Kyle H. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

This is truly a state of the art office! Even during the times of COVID, I felt completely safe in the office due to all of the precautions that Dr. Cheng and her staff have taken to make their patients feel fully at ease. Dr. Cheng has the newest of equipment and she was remarkably thorough in her examination and explanations. I am looking forward to returning for treatment!

★★★★★

I had braces when I was younger, but with age and losing a retainer, my teeth had gotten out of line again. I went to see Dr. Cheng and she had my teeth back in perfect alignment within 10 weeks. She even reconstructed some damaged teeth. The appointment were always fast and the entire staff is fun and welcoming. Go to Days to Smile. You WILL NOT REGRET!

★★★★★

Dr. Amanda Cheng is my WCW!!!! I would seriously trust her w/ my life. I decided to get ceramic braces instead of Invisalign because I felt like I missed out on a quintessential childhood experience. She’s super meticulous, understanding, and all around amazing. She listened to all of my concerns at every appointment (I’m so sorry I was nitpicky Dr. Cheng) and was very perceptive even to the slightest changes that were going on in my mouth. I had the treatment from 02/25/20 to 09/17/20 and you can def see the changes in my before and after! I can’t even recognize that they’re my teeth ARE WE SURE THESE ARENT VENEERS!? No they’re real haha Yayyy thank you Dr. Cheng! Also huge shoutout to Zoe for being a superstar!!

★★★★★

Dr. Cheng is amazing. She is the most caring doctor I have ever seen. I had Invisalign treatment, and I am super happy with my result. My teeth were crowded and my case is complicated. Dr. Cheng is able to help me straighten my teeth without the need of teeth extraction. She also helps me close the gap for my misshaped teeth with filling to make them look better. I highly recommend Dr. Cheng. No need to seek further. You should all come to this place if you want a great smile 🙂

Jenny C. from San Francisco, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr.Cheng has the coolest technologies! She combined my 3D itero scan with a 3D CBCT scan that planned out my treatment in relation to my teeth, jaw bone and musculature. I also needed implants and so precision was really important for me. I had invisalign with pontics painted in the areas where I have missing teeth. The process was accelerated and completed in 9 months, which is a lot faster than most other orthodontists in San Francisco who quoted me 18-24 months. I would highly recommend Dr. Amanda Cheng. I think she is the best orthodontist in SF given her training from Harvard and the Mayo Clinic. She is also one of the few Board Certified Orthodontists in SF. I love my smile and I feel a lot more confident in business meetings ! Thank you Dr. Cheng

Checking in for my LAST appointment! Just received my retainer. Dr. Amanda Chang is the BEST. She makes it so easier for everyone and anyone to get braces. Long story to make it short, I was being a little baby about how I didn’t want to have it for long. When I went in for quote, I was supposed to have braces on for 18 months. I began the braces process in Late May/early June of 2016. Took them off by end of Feb 2017. It took 8 months and a half instead of 18 months! Besides her wonderful skills, she’s very chill, understanding and witty. Definitely knows how to work around patient’s needs. *Thank you Dr. Chang, for putting up with needy complaints. Somebody give this lady a medal

The office is quite appealing and serene.The staff is very professional and very friendly-they go out of their way to make the patients comfortable and are concerned for their own welfare.They educate their patients concerning their maintenance and some other treatments and procedures to be considered. From the moment you walk in to the time you leave you’re in capable,capable hands.

★★★★★

Dr. Amanda is one of the most respectful and concerning orthodontist in the Bayarea. I was assigned to Dr. Amanda at Waterford / G-Force Orthodontist in Dublin. Dr. Amanda’s credential are important and essential to her profession, but she carries something that’s just as important and meaningful. Dr. Amanda carries respect, sensitivity and a personality that is warm, welcoming and definitely eye opening as she strides to be the best in her profession. In my experience, Dr. Amanda has accomplished this by paying close attention to each person that sits in her orthodontist chair. Her chair side mannerism is second to none. She is the Yin and the Yang of her confidence with exceptional concentration skills. I can remember the day I had my braces removed… Yes, it may have took a minute for the process, but the attention to detail that I received was spot on. When I had arrived home, the comments were not just “you look different,” but more like… “what happen” and “Your teeth look good”… “Dr. Amanda did something to you”… I said yeah, she removed my braces! Duh! … but, then again she added her own special touch of perfection. Trust me, if you saw my two front Racer X, brick made, side walk cracked, beaver dam wood choppers… you would know what I mean… Even the good Dr. Amanda said “You look awesome Christopher”… It was those tight titanium brackets that were sparking every time I would speak to someone. I was banned from going camping, because they thought I would start a forrest fire. On Thanksgiving that year, I hung around the stove just to spark a light to the gas so the pilot would fire up… man it was a ruff year, but Dr. Amanda made it much better just by me being in her chair and receiving the utmost attention and proper care. I just could not wait until my ortho appointment. The ladies that worked under Dr. Amanda took on some of her kindness. Of course this all depends on who is being treated and not who is treating you… But, I have personally seen Dr. Amanda adjust to who she attends to…. As for me, I would always make sure I gave her my best. I always had questions and she always had answers. One thing that I like best, is that Dr. Amanda wanted to make sure I had all my questions answered and that I was comfortable with her response. We even had side conversation when things were slow… It was just great…. I would compare it to going over your friends house on a sunny Saturday afternoon when you are in your early 20’s making plans for that night. Remember that? There is an old Chinese proverb that goes… “If you have a vision for a year, plant wheat, if you have a vision for 10 years plant trees and if you have a vision for a life time plant people… Dr. Amanda is definitely planting people by providing her orthodontist services that her ancestors can truly be proud of… If I were questioned by any of Dr. Amanda’s peers to describe her work… I would reply with something like the following… “There are not enough stars in the darkest sky to bring to light the beauty of her work…” Simply BEAUTIFUL!!! You have to experience it to know what I mean…. So after reading this, make an appointment and write your review.

Amanda and her team were already doing a great job before all the craziness of COVID. Since, they’ve taken it up another level by showing how to safely and successfully operate. The new office is clean and they take extra precautions to ensure you are comfortable and taken care of. Cutting edge tech, great staff, and modern process. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for treatment, Invisalign especially!

Finally finished my treatment with Dr. Cheng! Very happy with my smile. The office is very professional, scheduling was great and the staff are really sweet. I will say my treatment was originally supposed to be 4 months with Invisalign, and ended up resulting in nearly 11 months with 6 weeks of braces at the end. I’m happy to have the final result looking great, but it would have been better to get a more realistic estimate. I also feel like Dr. Cheng is very knowledgeable but could work on bedside manner a bit. That being said, the office has done a great job with COVID and I love my final result!

Dr. Cheng is the Best Orthodontist and I got my entire treatment done with virtual check ups and 2 in office appointments. I felt the office had the highest standards for sanitization… you will see Dr. Cheng in a hazmat suit. SIP is the perfect time to complete your orthodontics treatment because you’re at home and it’s easy to wear the trays for 22hours/day. My teeth are super straight. I definitely recommend Dr. Cheng and her team!

My son and I just discovered Dr. Dr. Cheng as we both had a broken tooth within a week of each other. We called Dr. Cheng and April was extremely nice and accommodating to get us in quickly even though we were new patients.We are definitely fans now and will be utilizing him for all of our rentals needs. I highly recommend trying his office!

I started my orthodontics treatment at Uniform Teeth and it didn’t go well ,so after a year , I decided to go to a real orthodontist and was referred to Dr. Cheng . Dr. Cheng is really detail oriented and wanted me to get gum grafting before I continued orthodontics treatment with her so that my bone loss was properly addressed. After 9 months , I am so happy that my teeth have stabilized and they are no longer mobile
