PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some happy patients are saying about us:

Douglas M. from Fullerton, CA (Source: Yelp)

I’m a 62 year old man who has never NOT been hurt by a dentist when they numb my mouth with a shot – never once…………. until now – I had to have a filling replaced and Dr. Chiang began the process in the usual way… a shot……….. usual in every way but one… no pain – let me re-state with emphasis…….. NO PAIN!!!!!!!!! EVER – not once and it got me so scared because I was sure there could not be enough medication in my jaw but Dr. Chiang began her work AND no pain – not even once during the entire procedure – this doctor has gotten my attention the right way – NO PAIN.

I hope this helps anyone out there whose fear of a dentist and the pain they generally visit on a patient can be mitigated by seeing Dr. Chiang.

Dr. Chiang is the best!! I haven’t been to any dentist for a long time because I have this fear of going to any dentist. But after my experience two days ago with her, my perspective and feelings toward dentists changed. She was so gentle with everything, from cleaning to fillings. I really appreciate her concern like she asked me if I was in pain or uncomfortable. She handled it so well, way way different from my previous dental checkups!!  I would definitely recommend Dr. Chiang!! She is very knowledgeable, kind, friendly, and has pleasing personality too! she would make you feel calm  I look forward to my future appointments with her! thank you so much Dr. Chiang!!

My first visit was for a cleaning and exam, second visit I had some cavities removed. Both visit where really good. I have another appointment scheduled and plan to continue with Dr Kristi. She answered all my questions,didn’t feel rushed,and made me feel very comfortable. Dr Kristi was gentle but really gets the job done.

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is one of the very few doctors who really has your best interest in mind. She is very professional and ethical. Her front office staff is always so nice and courteous. I would recommend my family and friends to Dr. Chiang if they need a great dentist!

Jeainny K. from Cambridge, MA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I went to Dr. Chiang for my first dental checkup in three years, and felt very comfortable the whole time. Getting your teeth cleaned is never pleasant, but Dr. Chiang was efficient, thorough, and attentive. I am very pleased with the results (clean, bright teeth!).

Dr. Chiang was also very patient with me, answering any nervous questions and telling me everything I needed to know about the procedure and the maintenance of my teeth.

Her skill is a given – what I want to emphasize is her absolute thoroughness and friendliness that makes a horror trip to the dentist an enjoyable experience!

★★★★★

I’ve been seeing Dr. Chiang for years! She is an excellent dentist and the environment of the office is always inviting.  All of her employees are caring and very informative.  I always look forward to see her and everyone else that works in this office. Thank you for providing me with consistently excellent care.

Noah L. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’ve been coming to Dr. Chiang since she took over for her uncle who was my first dentist, so I’ve been going to her family since I’ve had teeth. Everyone in the office is great and the service is wonderful. Plus, everyone that cleans the teeth is very gentle and you’re treated like a person, not just a set of teeth. You won’t find a better and more attentive dentist who will find space to fit you in if you have a tooth emergency.

Eddie L. from Garden Grove, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is awesome. She’s very methodical in everything she does. She gives you a thorough explanation before each and every procedure and really takes her time with her work. This isn’t your normal patient mill where you’re in and out after a rush job. My first appointment here was for a cleaning and it lasted more than 30 minutes. The best and most thorough cleaning I’ve ever had. My last cleaning prior to this at a different dentist – I was in and out in 10 minutes. Dr. Chiang is always willing to give tips and advice and will even give out random samples for you to try. The staff is really nice too.

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is an excellent dentist. She is honest, gave an excellent cleaning and took much time to make my first visit informative and understandable. Dr. Chiang has excellent credentials and the skills to match. I am so happy to have found such a good dentist. Her staff is excellent also. Her prices are fair and she worked also to make the dental work needed affordable.

Nikki E. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

They are so kind and friendly, very flexible with schedules and always try to accommodate you the best they can! They always have your best interest in mind for you and your smile ! Kristi Chang is the best dentist ever ! Rosa her dental assistant is very funny as well she makes you feel comfortable and at home!

Tony L. from Fullerton, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I had recently 4 dental implants, after the implant process completed, Dr. Chiang made a new set of denture & installed the locators on the denture. The denture fits well in my mouth. I am very happy with her service.

Susan P. from Los Angeles, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is a wonderful dentist who truly cares about her patients.  She saw me as a new patient immediately for a dental emergency after a friend recommended her.  Apart from taking care of the tooth, she provided a thorough examination and helpful recommendations for overall dental care and prevention.  She also provided a long overdue dental cleaning and it was painless while very thorough.

She has a kind, gentle demeanor that helps to calm nerves and made the dreaded trip to the dentist a surprisingly enjoyable one.   Her staff and assistants are also very friendly and helpful.  Although I live in LA, I would not hesitate to drive out to see her again.

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is a great dentist and very professional and thorough. I especially enjoy having my teeth cleaned. She also does teeth whitening at a very good price. She is definitely a 5 star dentist.

Michael M. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is awesome! She is genuinely concerned with any discomfort or issues you have. Every step comes with an explanation of what is going on or what you need. You will not be disappointed. She does most of the work herself and its definitely not an office with multiple dentists. Some dental offices in the area don’t give you the same dentist but that is not the case here. My wife and I are now regulars!

Jeannie P. (Source: Zocdoc)

★★★★★

She’s very honest and extremely thorough, and knowing that, it definitely helps you relax through your dental problems. She even makes sure your numb shot doesn’t hurt, which is definitely a plus for someone who hates any pain in their mouth!

Thambiraj T. from La Palma, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My experience at the Gentle Smiles Dentistry has been very satisfactory, in fact the work done by  Dr. Chaing on my teeth was superb; she was gentle, efficient and very up to date with her treatment techniques. She recently completed a very difficult procedure . . . a crown for my difficult to reach wisdom tooth. I am so happy to have her as my dentist.  I would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends or anyone who are looking for a dentist.

V. V. from Fullerton, CA (Source: Yelp)

Wow! Where do i even start? Maybe with how friendly EVERYONE in there is. Or maybe how amazing Dr Chiang is.
I haven’t been to a dentist in a while (last one scared me off) I started my visit with Dr Chiang early this year. I was nervous and just wanted to go home, but everyone was so kind and kept telling me it was going to be okay. Dr Chiang walked me through what we were going to do and why.
I’ve told her i sometimes rush brushing my teeth and she responds “were only human” Who does that?! So understanding!!! And she talks to you like she would to a friend!
You wont find a place better than Dr Chiang’s office. I actually look forward to my appointments

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is an amazing dentist! she is the best! I was always scared of dentists but after she did the cleaning and teeth fillings on me, I felt calm and no longer fearful of dentist!! she was gentle all throughout, answered all my concerns and made me feel at ease thank you so much Dr. Chiang! i would definitely recommend her!! I’m looking forward to my next appointments with her!

Had a regular checkup last year. I had a great experience and told her i’ll give her a review but never got to it until a year later…Sorry! First timer in her office. Front Desk ladies was wonderful. Kristi was wonderful. No Wait time. Great experience. Kristi is very detailed oriented. She talks out loud her finding as she pokes around in my mouth. I find that very helpful and had lots of questions. She took her sweet time answering all my questions. I came to the office at 5:30 pm, left around 7 pm. Lots of questions  I felt well taking care of. Planning to visit her again next month. SEEE YOUUU SOOOON

★★★★★

I like this place. Dr. Chiang and her mom are wonderful folks. I came in because one of my molar ( the back teeth) chipped.
She got this camera that she used to take a before and after pix of my teeth. Its a special camera that is jam into ur mouth. Technology is awesome.  I took my iPhone to take a pix of it for myself.
Dr. Chiang is very detailed.  I had to come back because my bite was hurting like crazy. Dr. Chiang fixed that right up. No appointment needed.
Receptionist was very friendly.  Dr. Chiang is easy to talk to.  See you in 6 months 🙂

This was the best dental experience I’ve had I was terrified of a root canal but she was very nice and talk me through it came out with no pain at all today is my second day and I’m feeling great

Judah A. from Huntington Beach, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang and her staff are super!!!  They will work with your busy schedule and they offer a late night 1 day of the week.  She is friendly and professional, and listens intently to patients’ concerns.  She makes sure that your immediate needs are met and puts your dental health in the highest priority.  Give her a call today and make her your new dentist….!!!

Whitney C. from San Juan Capistrano, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr Chiang is a superb dentist and I’m speaking from the perspective of a dental phobic person who doesn’t want anyone touching my teeth. She sets me at ease and the cleaning didn’t hurt a bit.  I’m stoked that I don’t have any cavities! I will recommend her to all my friends.

Jen Van Diest (Source: Zocdoc)

★★★★★

I was very happy with Dr. Kristi. She was very gentle and honest in her evaluation of what needed to be done on my teeth. Her hygienist Chris was great and my teeth are sparkling clean. This was my first time at this office and I really appreciated how kind and professional everyone was. I will definitely be back.

Tina R. from Corona, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My checkup from after having my son. I was anxious on coming but Dr. Chiang and her team were so welcoming and comforting i never felt so comfortable in a dental office. Very clean and plays classic music to calm your mind.  Shes a family practice so my son will be seeing her shortly. Thank you so much for everything you did for me!!!

Lin W. from Irvine, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’ve been going to Dr. Chiang for about 2 months now and I think she’s a wonderful dentist and I enjoy stopping by the office because of how pleasant everyone is. She is very thorough with taking care of her patients, and if you’re scared of the anesthetics she’s really good about applying it so you’re not hurting. I don’t feel pressured about any procedures and she’s very honest about her work and costs. The charges are very fair and I pay out of pocket for my treatment. I’m also a trans patient so while I was hesitant at first to ask the staff to use my correct pronouns, everyone in the office has been really great about it and respectful so that’s an added bonus which makes my visits a lot better!

Dr. Chang & her staff are awesome! They always work me in even with my crazy work schedule.. They take great care of me & make dental visits not scary at all!!!

★★★★★

This has been my second visit with Kristi Chang, DDS, and each time she has always been very punctual to see me, she has explained every procedure in a way that was easy to understand, and she has been gentle when working on my teeth. Usually, I dread the dentist, but being in Kristi’s care was calming and an easy experience. Also, all of her staff is very friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable. The thing I will say about my second visit is that I made an appointment because I felt some pain about a filling I had done. I was worrying about the filling more than I should have. I think most dentist’s would have just see me at the consultation office and told me not to worry about it. Kristi took the time out to actually inspect every part of the work she had done on me. She went above and beyond her duties.

Emily H. from Fullerton, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been coming here since I was a kid and I have loved the staff ever since I can remember. Dr. Kristi really cares about her patients and i wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!

Hieu H. from Westminster, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I do a lot of research when it comes to my family’s health, and am very pleased that I’ve found Dr. Kristi Chiang during my search. She is very gentle and thorough. She will let you know of any concerns she may have and really does have your best interest in mind.  The staff is amazing. They are very kind, sweet, friendly, and social. They’ll make you feel quite welcomed and at ease. I had a cleaning done a few weeks ago and there was absolutely no pain. She did a thorough job and did not rush through my cleaning like my previous dentist. Dr Chiang would also continuously ask you if you were ok or if there was any pain throughout the whole process. I thought that was quite considerate.
Yesterday, I had my two wisdom teeth extracted with Dr. Chiang. I was a little nervous, because in the past the shots would always hurt and I hated that part. With Dr. Chiang, I didn’t even feel the shot. The whole process was quick and painless. I’m not swollen, and I barely have any pain post extractions. I would definitely recommend Dr. Chiang. Hands down.

I find Dr. Kristi Chiang and her office personnel to be easy to work with in a caring, relaxing and professional environment. My favorite is their teeth whitening results before important events where their Gentle Smiles Dentistry practice in Anaheim produces my HUGE smiles.

Walt R. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been to many dentists through the years and I would rate DR. Chiang at the top. Most dentists are knowledgeable in the basics but I was pleasantly surprised at her knowledge of her craft, and the willingness to take the time to discuss and explain procedures and treatments available that I had never heard of from other DDS. Having dental problems my whole life, Dr K understands the stresses of the dental chair, works quickly, and correctly with the patients needs and pain threshold in balance .A very friendly staff, always accommodating and professional, with an emphasis on  clean, and sterile environment.

Drew R. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Chiang is probably the best dentist I’ve ever had. The office staff is very friendly and very accommodating. I came in early to fill out the necessary paperwork and was taken back for xrays almost immediately after. I’ve never had an experience where I was seen that quickly! Dr. Chiang was very thorough and only brought things to my attention that were necessary. Needless to say my visit was very pleasant and pain free. I left the office feeling better about my teeth and my smile. Probably the first time I could say I enjoyed going to the dentist! 🙂

Diana T. from Paramount, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. CHIANG is absolutely the best dentist doctor I’ve ever had in my life. Her Staff as well are very welcoming and courteousness they’ll treat you like family. I love the fact that I once dared going to the dentist office, now I’ve learn to embrace my smile and make it a routine to go have my teeth be cared for. I’ve learn more from Dr. Chiang about my own prophylaxis dental care then any dentistry I’ve ever went to. Being self-aware of your health help you appreciate the care given. The experience in service I’ve received has consistently been very thorough. I trust the work and the Staff that I’m in great care. Thanks You Dr. Chiang & Gentle Smiles Dentistry Staff!

Andrea O. from Anaheim, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I am so lucky to have found Dr. Chiang! My parents first started going to her a couple years ago, and had wonderful things to say about her knowledge, professionalism, and services provided. I have had good and bad experiences with dentists over the years, and since I switched to Dr. Chiang I have been SO HAPPY that I will not be needing to find any other dentist.

Dr. Chiang and her assistants all do a wonderful job getting my teeth clean (gently- as their name suggests!), she is careful and meticulous, she explains everything that she is doing, and Dr. Chiang was able to fix a very annoying gap that was trapping food (that no other dentist could fix). All of the staff are friendly and accommodating, and I recommend Dr. Chiang for anyone looking for a superb dentist!

A WORD FROM YOUR DOCTOR

Dr. Chiang grew up in Cerritos, California. She graduated from Whitney High School with Highest Honors, and went on to Pacific Union College located in Napa Valley, California where She graduated Cum Laude with a BS in Chemistry, AS in Music, and a minor in Business Administration. Following college, Dr. Chiang went on to Loma Linda University where she earned her DDS. In addition, she completed a one year general practice residency from Harlem Hospital Center in New York City, which is affiliated with Columbia University. Dr. Chiang worked as an associate dentist in New York City before returning to her beloved home state of California. Many people wonder what inspired Dr. Chiang to become a dentist, which she can accredit to numerous family members in the field; the most influential of these being Dr. Robert Souw. Dr. Chiang has been most fortunate to have acquired the practice of Dr. Souw, in which she practices full time.
