I’m from LA and it was worth the drive to come to M Dental to get my wisdom tooth extracted.  From the beginning process to the end, I was treated with kindness and care. The appointment process with M Dental group was easy via call. Finding the elevator was a bit tricky since it’s kinda hidden. Upon arrival, the place was clean and they enforced covid 19 protocols/ safety measures. They took my temperature and had me fill out a questionnaire regarding the virus.  I took the x-ray scan and Dr. Kim came in to check it out. I originally wanted to only take out one wisdom tooth, but he suggested I take out both my left side wisdom tooth and explained to me why. There was a separate room for payment consultation: the lady who attended me was very nice and the payment process was quick and simple. When it was time for wisdom tooth extraction, I was nervous as heck, but the staff there made me feel comfy and constantly asked if I was okay. Honestly, the extraction process went so fast, I didn’t even believe it was over already. Dr.Kim also check if you were okay every now and then. I highly recommend some earphones or something, the noise of the tools will make you feel anxious at some point. I’m happy with the overall process and didn’t feel any pain! I will definitely come back for other dental needs.

Transitioning from a different dentist/orthodontist while moving, M Dental was where I finished off the last year of my braces during high school. First, the location is great! Theres a designated parking garage for the business center and always full of open spots. The inside of the dentist is very modern. Looks just like the pictures. Very well kept and clean. They also have a coffee machine (Keurig)/tea/ water and other drinks in the refrigerator. Both Dr Paul and Janet Kim were very welcoming and professional. They always explained every part of the procedure. I recently took out one of my wisdom teeth, which Dr Paul Kim took out with a blink of an eye. Didnt even hurt after the anesthesia wore off. They also provided me with a document explaining more of whats going to happen in the future and signed me up for a checkup within a week. Another thing is their notifications! Very very useful. Not only do they give you a card with your date/time but they give a notification through email/text. It gives you a confirmation then and also a week before the appointment. Would highly recommend as my experience throughout the past 4-5 years have not changed at all!

My first visit to M Dental was to finish work from a previous dentist. You see, I am a terrible patient. I will not come in unless I am in pain or a tooth or crown breaks or falls out. It’s not that they are overly pricey, it’s that I would just rather spend the money on things other than my teeth! That being said, one of the things I appreciate about M Dental is that I am never made to feel ashamed about not coming in on a regular basis. The Dr.’s Kim and their staff always treat me with dignity and respect. Further, nothing is ever done without a full explanation and every option is presented with no sense of shame felt if you choose to put off a maintenance or procedure that is recommended. The office is clean, beautiful, and modern. They also offer a staggering array of cosmetic services. I recommend M Dental to everyone searching for quality dental services!

I wanted to do a deep cleaning and get a second estimate for future braces so I visited M Dental Group since my aunt, uncle, cousin, and mother are clients here. They always said nice things about this dentistry and since my family is a reliable source, I came to give this dentist a try (to be honest, I avoided the dentist for a couple years because I was traumatized from a previous one). First Day: When I walked in, I was greeted by two ladies with huge smiles (this was early, when they opened at 9 a.m)! Elisha took my photo as I completed a new client form; she was helpful and very detailed when explaining certain parts of the form to me. Next, I was called to the X-ray area where Olga took multiple x-rays of my teeth and jaw area. She was gentle and described everything she was going to do before she started. I was then led to a room where dental hygienist Jane cleaned my teeth. I was a bit nervous but she was extremely nice and helped me to calm down. She talked to me the entire time letting me know what was going to be done and how. I do not know how she held everything and made it work efficiently (spraying water, suction, scalers, etc.,) all by herself..with just two hands! She’s truly skilled and the best hygienist I have ever met. She was SO thorough and quick, yet my teeth felt super clean when she was done. After the cleaning, other employees took numerous photos of my teeth from every single angle. I later realized that this was to be blown up on a big screen so that the doctor can use them as a reference when explaining the braces process. Lastly, Dr. Paul Kim came to discuss my over bite. He was bilingual (Korean and English) and showed me much more than I could possibly imagine during a consultation. He used my pictures, x-rays, and orthodontic teeth model to visibly show me how and what was to be done. I can tell that he speaks from experience and knowledge, he is a wise man and I trust all of his recommendations! Before I left, I met with the business manager Jenny. We discussed pricing, timeline, and scheduling. She was very accommodating and helpful. I made the decision to get braces the very next week because I not only trust the employees here, but know for sure that I am in good hands. Second day: I was terrified of getting my top and bottom wisdom teeth extracted. I was worse than a toddler and prayed to God from the lobby room to the chair. I even asked Dr. Lee (extraction doctor) to pray with me! I am SO thankful for him because he was kind enough to help me calm down and even gave me sunglasses to cover my eyes from the bright light (so caring)! The numbing shots barely hurt and before each injection, Dr. Lee advised where and when he would be placing it. Moments later, he said that he would be “dancing” with my teeth. In less than three minutes, both teeth were out! Yes there was slight pressure, but absolutely NO pain. I had my hands shaking in a fist the entire time for no reason because it really did not hurt. I got my top brace brackets put on and it was a breeze. Maggie gave me a goody bag filled with at home instructions on how to care for teeth removal and braces. It was informative and helpful. A few days later, Erin from the front desk texted me asking how I was feeling from the teeth removal. I was touched because she answered all my questions and showed genuine care! I recommend M Dental to anyone and everyone who needs dental work. Whether it is teeth cleaning, extraction, root canals, braces, or implants, I know this dentistry excels because my friends and family who are clients here are 100% satisfied. Thank you to all the staff members and doctors.

Today I took my kids to M dental for a regular check up and cleaning. Ever since my oldest was 3 years old, my kids were never afraid of going to dentist. That says a lot because most kids are horrified of going to the dentist. Now that my kids are 7 and 5 years old, they are having some wiggly tooth and having some cavities however because of their gentle care for children, it has not been stressful for me to bring kids to the dentist. Who would not cry when they are just locally numbed, not being sedated and pulled 3 teeth? That’s how well they treat the kids here. It’s pretty amazing!! For the most part, the quality of their service is beyond what you can expect. Dr. Kim, Dr. Lee and their hygenist are awesome and staff members are so polite and professional. I heard that soon, their pediatric will be open in January. I’ve already referred so many family members and friends to m dental group and not one person said they had a bad experience. I love my dentist!!

I highly recommend, the BEST DENTIST I ever had. I had root canal 2x and I kept coming back even if I leave 25 miles away it’s a worth to drive. Never I felt any pain the entire process. He has this “DENTAL VIBE” that you will not feel the pain with the needle when giving numbing agent and believe me when I say… I was so relaxed and even fall sleep during the procedure. He is very skillful, gentle and caring. The crew are friendly they treat you like a family. The place is easy to find, high tech, clean and parking is very convenient.

I love M-Dental’s dentists and staff! I’ve been going here for a couple years now, and they’re amazing. I love how they reach out to you to remind you about appointments, and even work our rescheduling via text. Their front desk, and consultations do a great job in making everything clear of what procedures will be like and their price points. I’ve had to take care of cavities, root canals, and wisdom teeth here and those appointments I loved! I can’t get over how much their procedures are really painless! They definitely make sure you’re taking care of, and are VERY professional. I’ve been going to the dentist since I was about 6 years old until I finally got my braces off when I became of freshman year in high school, and I can say this is the BEST dentist I’ve ever been to! Oh and I almost forgot to mention that their due diligence to make sure everything is sanitary, and taking clients temperature before entering the office is appreciated.

Just WOW – my spouse, a very young 65, started having issues with his teeth crowding and it was becoming uncomfortable. To say we spent days assessing our options is an understatement – we live in Chino Hills and could not find a decent orthodontist in all of the IE. After scouring a million reviews, we realized all signs pointed to M Dental. We are blessed to have found such a professional, trustworthy, and competent group of experts. The front desk is incredibly helpful, Jenny in finance is incredibly knowledgeable but not pushy and did everything to keep us on budget. We decided on clear braces instead of aligners and we’re so glad we did – Jenny made it all fast and easy and explained everything to us up front. All of the dental assistants are highly qualified and friendly, and Dr. Kim is a dedicated perfectionist. At first we were concerned it was a “dental mill” – quickly turning patients in and out, over and over – we were SO wrong. We quickly realized the M Dental team is highly efficient, provides fast, efficient check ups, and Dr. Kim won’t accept anything but happy, satisfied patients with amazing smiles. The entire team is incredibly impressive. I have never asked, but it seems like they only see adult patients at the Fullerton office – which we REALLY appreciate – I believe they have “Kids Only” offices in Anaheim? No elitist Orange County mom’s and their bratty kids here to contend with…at least not when we are there. It’s worth the drive and every penny to have a calming, neutral, nicely appointed office without kiddie cut outs and bright colors everywhere. (Just one thing – those upholstered chairs in the waiting room should be retired and replaced with more virus friendly options – vinyl, plastic, poly –  something that can be wiped down…they have definitely served their purpose.;) A few times we have had to follow up after an adjustment, and they have ALWAYS worked us into the schedule – even with the virus raging, they have maintained a clean, safe, professional environment and kept the process as seamless as possible. 8 months after both his top and bottom braces were placed, his smile has been transformed much faster than anticipated and his smile already looks amazing – we can’t wait to see the final reveal when they come off later this year! No matter where you live in SoCal, M Dental is worth the drive – I can’t imagine finding a more knowlegeable, professional and efficient one stop office for all of your dental needs – thank you to everyone!

I’ve been with M Dental since 2017 and after five fillings, two wisdom tooth extractions, and more than ten cleaning/check ups, I’ve only been pleased with painless, organized, courteous, communicative, and professional service. At my first appointment, I did paperwork with reception, x-rays with a technician, check up with the dentist, cleaning with a hygienist, and financing with an employee, and the process across the board was smooth, and ever since then, I haven’t had any billing or waiting issues, haven’t been in discomfort and had my concerns quickly addressed, and I never dread a visit. I really appreciate being able to reliably take care of dental work with as much ease as I do here and I trust I’ll be in good hands going forward.
