Hands down, best dentist, staff, and office in history of dental offices. I mean. It’s not even close. From the moment you walk in, you know you’re in for a treat and an experience unlike any you’ve ever had. Especially, from a dentist visit. Dr. Han is a perfectionist when it comes to teeth and dental care. I think she cares more about my teeth than I do, at least that’s the feeling she invokes. If you want a dentist who makes you feel this way, you’d be hard pressed to do better than Dr. Han. Dr. Han not only imparts emotion, she hits you with infallible knowledge and wisdom. Sometimes I feel like I’m in dental school because she is also a professor of dentistry as the acclaimed USC School of Dentistry. For the record, I’m a UCLA Bruin, and I detest everything SC with the one exception being their dental program (I’m pretty sure Dr. Han influenced that change). Another example, of her expertise and smarts when it comes to teeth is showing me the long term effects of my teeth grinding. She illustrated the bleak outlook of my teeth and oral wellness should I continue to grind my teeth. So now, I have a mouth guard. I mean, dental health and hygiene is something I think we all take for granted. Dr. Han does a great job of raising awareness and educating you on the importance of teeth care. She is now (and has been for some time) my dentist for life. But, as supreme as Dr. Han is, the magic doesn’t happen without the assistance of her superb staff. Dental assistant Jasmine is like Robin to Dr. Han’s Batman. Jasmine’s professionalism and work ethic make her priceless to the Mint Dental Loft team; however, that’s not even the best aspect of her. Never have I ever walked into the office and not seen her with a smile and warm infectious attitude that seems to transfer over to me. It’s like, I see her and know everything is going to be alright. Jasmine is literally the unsung hero of MDL and the boss in the back! Last, and most certainly not least, there is Tanya. Tanya is the office manager and logistics wizard, basically, she’s the Boss in the front. Tanya’s expertise and know-how when it comes to dealing with insurance and her ability to maximize my coverage is remarkable. Tanya is flexible and attentive to my scheduling needs. I am chronically late to everything, and so, Tanya and I have brilliantly devised a plan when setting my appointments. Now, I am always early or on time! In summation, Dr. Han and the staff at Mint Dental Loft are, by far, the best that I’ve ever had. Visit Dr. Han once and it’s basically “set it and forget it”. You have one less thing to worry about in life cause you won at finding a lifetime dentist

Dr. Han and her staff are the absolute best. I had my front tooth veneer knocked off by the anesthesiologist when he was pulling the tubing out of my throat after surgery and I needed to have it replaced right away. The moment I was able to get to a dentist I called Dr. Hans office at Mint Dental Loft and the staff member that help me was very accommodating and understanding and booked me for the next available appointment first thing in the morning. I was greeted very warmly by the front desk person and even by name which really impressed me and then Martha came out to take me to a room and get me set up to see Dr. Han. I want to thank Dr. Han And Martha for their professionalism and excellent attentive service. They made me feel so welcome and I felt as if I’d known them all along. After several bad experiences with several dentists I feel like I finally found my new home and I will definitely be back for a full dental work up and to put my care into the Hands of Dr. Han

Dr. Tran Han is a perfectionist. And a very conservative dentist. I also love that she takes photos of your teeth (in addition to x-rays) to actually document any visual change over time. She was wonderful with my 2 year old. First appt was free and more of a meet and greet where she talked and educated both my daughter and I. She let my toddler push the buttons to move the chair. My daughter had a great experience and 6 months later when we went back for a cleaning she was able to remember her positive experience which lead to a great cleaning. My husband I also saw Dr. Han and were very sad when we moved to Austin and had to say goodbye. We highly recommend making Mint your family dentist choice

Dr Han and her staff are awesome. I recently had surgery and the anesthesiologist knocked off my veneer when trying to pull the tubing out of my throat. It just happened to be my front room here and so I really needed it repaired right away. Dr. Han Took me in as an emergency. When I arrived at the office I was greeted by name by the office staff and Martha came out to take me to the room and prepare me to see Dr. han.I want to thank them both for their professionalism and for Dr. han explaining to me in detail what was being done and what needed to be done. I told her that I will be coming to see her on a regular basis now and I feel confident in putting my dental health in her hands. I would definitely recommend her and I will be recommending her to my family and friends

I recently visited Dr. Han’s office after years of not going to the dentist due to past experiences and anxiety. I often received their mailers. I had been wanting to find a good dentist, but many reviews for the dentists my insurance accepted were not that great, so I kept putting it off. I finally switched to a PPO plan and made an appointment here. I was so nervous, but from the moment I walked in their office, I knew I had found “the one.” Super cute office with a friendly and knowledgeable team. I had two back-to-back appointments – one for consultation and xrays and the other for the cleaning. Dr. Han, Martha, and Riza were amazing. They explained everything and ensured I was comfortable the entire time. The cherry on top was that about a week after both appointments, I received two handwritten Thank You cards in the mail. They match the aesthetic of the office, which I love. Riza and Martha wrote such sweet notes of thanks. That personal touch really means a lot. I liked the cards so much that they were hung on my fridge! I’m even looking forward to my next appointment. Thanks to the entire team for the wonderful experience and for squashing my fear of dentists

Update: It’s been two amazing years since my first visit at Mint Dental Loft – the service and care is still as amazing as the first. Today in particular was especially awesome! I usually have such a hard time during cleanings because of super sensitive teeth and gums that I always request to be numbed. Not Today People! Not Today!! The request to be numb was not even a topic of conversation. In fact, the hygienist did everything all while I was on my laptop finishing projects! IDK why I didn’t think of taking a picture to share.. I think I was just surprise at how quick and painless the cleaning went. Proof that if you stay up to date with your dentist your dental health does in fact improve :). I also had to have minor surgery with Dr. Han and just like any other visit and yelper has experienced- she was caring and made sure I was okay the entire time all while I continued to work on my laptop. Thank you Mint Dental Loft, my smile will continue to break hearts (haha)

I am so thankful that I found this gem. The staff at Mint Dental Loft make going to the dentist such an enjoyable experience. They are friendly, informative, and caring. During any procedure that I’ve had, they check in frequently to make sure I do not experience any discomfort. They also follow up after the procedure to ensure you are recovering well. It’s the best experience I have ever had going to the dentist and I have recommended friends and family who are also happy with the service they have received. Bonus: The office is spotless and beautiful. Thank you Mint Dental staff for being awesome! :o)

My family has been going to Mint Dental Loft for the past three years. You couldnt ask for better dentists. Not only are Dr. Han and Dr. Richard great for my wife and I, but they’ve done a terrific job with our 5 and 3 year olds as well. They always do a thorough job of explaining treatments and options. The staff is super friendly as well. We have had a couple instances where an emergency came up and they took care of us right away. In one case, Dr. Han was out of town, but arranged for another dentist to see me on a Saturday. The other time, my 4 year old (at the time) fell and banged his two front teeth to the point that they were very loose. Dr. Han and one of the staff stayed late to see him immediately. We are so grateful to everyone at Mint Dental!

I’ve been going to Mint Dental Loft for over a year now for my own dental services, and a few months ago at my last cleaning I found out that Dr. Han used to teach pediatric dentistry! I was overjoyed because I had been desperately searching for a pediatric dentist for my 8-year old daughter for over a year and after visiting several pediatric dentist offices or dentists who specialized in pediatrics, I still was unsatisfied with their services or treatment plans for my daughter so I continued to postpone her dental treatment. Once I found out about Dr. Han’s history with pediatric dentistry I booked my daughter an appointment. My daughter was extremely nervous during her visit, but Dr. Han and her team were so amazing! They made my daughter’s dental experience a positive one and I’m happy to say that not only does my daughter no longer have cavities, but she’s also no longer afraid of the dentist. I am a proud patient and now so is my daughter… WE LOVE MINT DENTAL LOFT!! A great big THANK YOU to Dr. Han and her entire team

I can honestly say mint dental is by far the best expireince I have ever had with a dental office. Dr. Han is amazing. The entire staff are friendly, professional, and warm. Unlike other previous dental experiences, the focus at mint is on a long term plan for continued dental health. They have the latest technology, are clear about costs of procedures, never feel rushed, and all of my questions are always answered in a way I understand. My procedures have been pain free. I cannot recomend mint detal loft enough

I love Mint Dental Loft! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, I had been delaying work on my teeth because my previous dentist didn’t offer care credit or a payment plan. So, when I first came to see Dr. Han, there was a lot of work to do. Dr. Han is the best. She takes her time and makes sure that her patient is comfortable. She carefully explained my treatment plan, and I never felt rushed when I had questions. She and her staff do quality work. I’ve never been so relaxed in a dentist’s office and been so happy with the results. I appreciate the payment options, digital x-rays, and current technology used in the office. Thank you Dr. Han and all the friendly staff at Mint Dental Loft!

It was my first experience going yesterday (went because of the high reviews on this website) and boy, I have to say the reviews on here are well deserved. I was super impressed. The office was one of the cleanest I’ve seen – well kept, and charming. The whole atmosphere was was that of smaller, but more caring business practice. Dr. Tran is just super great 🙂 The checkup was very legitimate – they took xray and close up photos, and Dr. Tran explained every aspect of what is wrong with my teeth. The cleaning was super thorough and didn’t seem rushed and crappy (like my last dentist who always seemed to finish check up and cleaning suspiciously fast). I don’t have much dentists “phobia” but nonetheless, she was very gentle and made sure that I was ok throughout cleaning. And finally, the best part! Dr. Tran went through the best strategy with me to prevent further decay and to avoid drilling out my teeth (unlike other dentists who would just drill and fill for the money). This is totally going to be my regular dentist’s office, and I promptly made another appointment! Here’s the solution for anyone who has had bad experiences @ the dentist. High recommendation for her and her staff 🙂

Definitely a great experience. Making an appointment reservation online and electronic reminders were so convenient and easy. This office is definitely high tech. You will know what I’m talking about. Seriously leagues above other offices. I didn’t have to sift through a bunch of paper documents with a clipboard (yuck!). The registration and completion of forms were done electronically and when I missed something, I can pick up an iPad and complete the section I missed. Did I mention, it only took about 8 minutes to do this? And most of all, I didn’t have to wait long! I love this. All the equipment is brand new and felt nice to go to an office where everything, and I mean everything, is really nice. The x-ray machine didn’t make any weird squeaking noises to add to my initial anxiety. Respect your time, appointment, and commitment. Seriously, this cannot be emphasized enough. Remember when you walked into a waitroom and having to wait forever? Not this time around and it was greatly appreciated. Honestly, it was awesome. The care and treatment were absolutely excellent. Dr. Tran went above and beyond (attesting as others have reviewed) her care for me and my needs. She answered all the questions I had and took the time to explain and help me understand my options. I felt so relieved and assured after my treatment. Recommendation? You betcha! Not to mention, the interior and design of the entire office is like a trendy loft 🙂 It felt soo comfy!

I’m an out of towner…Dr Han is now my husband’s dentist. They had a $99 special offer for X-rays, clean, whitening….I thought I’d join him. Am I glad I did! I’ve never come across such modern and sophisticated x ray equipment. I don’t think that any decay would squeak past it (inc a rather fancy pen thingy that homed in on individual teeth. I have an ageing mouth guard (matching my ageing mouth….). I thought this would be a very good place to have it upgraded and updated. The most particular, thorough, sensitive and kind treatment from Dr Han and all her staff. I needed to have a temporary crown refilled (it was already quite some years’ old, but my Vancouver dentist had overlooked it). This was, necessarily, quite a long but totally pain free procedure. I shall return for the crown and it will look and feel a lot better. No one was settling for 2nd best of anything…if the cast didn’t look quite right…another was taken and I made sure I followed instructions to get it perfect on my part. The work was on a tooth towards the back. I was certainly prepared for discomfort as it returned to life. Next to nothing. I was fine to eat and act normally come supper time. Around 8.00pm my cell rang. It was Dr Han…wanting to know how things were feeling. Not an extra service I’ve ever known, expected or would expect again. I really appreciated it this once though and know it came from a genuine caring place. I’d love this to be my forever surgery. I have complete confidence in their priorities, service and professional practice. We are both very pleased we received that flyer through the mail

I like this place. I first met Dr. Han when she was at another dental practice. But now this is her own dental office. They have great new equipment with the latest technology. I did this vertical xray machine. It looks like a MRI, but with minimal radiation. I didn’t have to wear a lead vest. They also have this cool tool where they take actual pictures of your teeth and they take the time to sit and discuss with you their areas of concern. It’s a lot of preventative advice on what’s developing (cavities, gum recession, etc.) and how to stop problems before they even occur. Their staff is friendly and really knowledgeable in their areas of expertise and they’re great with children! My 5 year old daughter was able to sit still while they captured photos of her entire mouth. Give Mint Dental Loft a try. They won’t disappoint

I was first a patient of Dr. Han’s when she was working at a South Pasadena dental office a couple years ago and LOVED her! She was incredibly honest and straightforward about the work she felt I actually needed, gave me different options & approaches (which ended up saving me hundreds of dollars in the end!!), and did an incredible job of rebuilding a partially fake front tooth that was in desperate need of repair. She was very patient with all of my questions and was more than happy to take the time to explain what was going on in-depth. Fast forward a couple years to now (currently December 2015) and I realized it’d been a while since my last dental appointment, so I called the South Pas office I’d originally visited and was told she was no longer with them. I was so disappointed, but absolutely determined to track her down, so I started searching for her online and called through a handful of dental offices trying to find her. (I literally asked each receptionist if “this was the same Dr. Han who had worked at the aforementioned South Pasadena office”.) Finally, success! I discovered that she had opened her own office (Mint Dental Loft) and immediately scheduled a check-up. She’s just as wonderful as I remember and I’m going back again next month to get a couple wisdom teeth removed (something I’d been holding off on doing for years), but knowing that I’m in Dr. Han’s more-than-capable hands makes me feel a lot better. I guarantee you’ll love Dr. Han if you meet with her and get some work done. Her new office is incredibly pretty, well-lit, and has windows that look out onto the mountains, and her staff was also incredibly polite and helpful. Love them all, but schedule an appointment and you’ll be able to find out for yourself!

Best dental experience I’ve ever had! Everyone is so competent and genuinely friendly. Dr Han and my oral hygienist, Jose, explained every step perfectly which was very reassuring since going to the dentist has made me nervous in the past. I don’t think I will be nervous anymore 🙂 Jose did an amazing job and my cleaning was a smooth and easy experience. I really, really appreciate the care I received from every member of the staff that I met. Thank you!

Dr. Han is the dentist of our dreams! Because of how wonderful she and her staff have been to our family, we have entrusted her not only with our dental work, but also our overall general health. Mint Dental Loft goes above and beyond in so many aspects (sometimes even receiving a call to see how a procedure went – even if it was just a routine cleaning!). That being said, everything was disrupted when Covid-19 became our new reality and our regular checkups were pushed aside due to all of the worries that come with Covid. After delaying several months, and discussing with my wife, we went forward with a visit in mid-August. It comes as no surprise as to how smooth the entire process went. Right from the get go, Alyssa ensured a great check-in and spacing to ensure I did not cross paths with other patients. I was grateful to the exceptionally detail and attention given to me by Jose. I must say that even through all the layers of protective gear, Jose articulated and clearly communicated what he was doing, which allowed me to relax, while he expertly reclaimed the unattended regimen my mouth sorely missed. I was eager to schedule my follow up and cannot wait to see them soon!

I am happy to update my review on the Mint Dental Loft team. I have been a patient for about 3 or 4 years now. I am still quite pleased with my treatments – personal and dental. If you like painless dentistry, this is the place. If you like a pleasant and friendly staff, this is this place. By the way, they (Jazmine, Zinna and Dr. Han each have beautiful teeth). They are a fun and cohesive group, and I always look forward to my dental appointments (I know it sounds crazy, but I’m a teeth freak). Dr. Han has been successful with making dental adjustments for me that others said could not be done, so “How ya like me now??!!”. The office is nicely appointed, and is always clean, with nice, new advanced technology equipment. Also, the staff handles all of the business with the insurance company and I’ve never had to make any calls on my own. This is by far the best dental home that I’ve ever had

Oh my, I hate going to the dentist. Well, not here! Dr. Tran and her staff are really professional and friendly. All the equipment is new and hi-tech. Loved the stand-up, vertical x-ray machine that moves around you. The Dr. explained everything while showing me the photos and x-rays of my teeth on her iPad so I could see the extent of what needed to be fixed. Besides the excellent care, her office is gorgeous! Very trendy and SUPER clean. Best Dentist ever

I love Dr. Han, and her wonderful team at Mint Dental Loft. First of all, the space is amazing. The decor is fantastic, the equipment is always impeccable. The staff is so joyeous, and kind. That it makes the whole experience really one of a kind! I feel like I stepped into a little oasis, and I know for sure that everything is going to be Okay. I love this dentist so much, that I dared my husband to join, and just try. He was so impressed, that he didn’t hesitate on switching. My children (7, and 5) go there since they were 18 months, and they always go in with a smile. My daughter Samantha loves Dr. Han so much that she told me since she was 3 that she wants to be a dentist! I’m so glad my daughter has such wonderful role models. Also, I have to mention that my son is on the Autism spectrum, and he trusts Dr. Han more than anybody in the world. I’m sure he will never feel safe with another dentist. She connects with my children like not many people, and it’s all because of what a wonderful professional she is. I have to say that I trust Dr. Han with the replacement of my crowns, and I’m extremely happy with the results. And I’m a perfectionist. My smile is perfect always, Thanks to the excellent care that Dr. Han and her team give me, and my family. Thank you MINT DENTAL LOFT!

Ever since I was a kid I always dreaded going to the dentist. The offices were drab, the magazines were old, the staff were usually hurried, the dentist themselves were cold and unrelatable, so it’s no surprise that I, like many other people, would avoid going to see the dentist. After many years of putting off at least a checkup, which would most likely lead to the discovery of cavities, I decided to make the dreaded call to schedule an appointment. Like most people these days I decided to scour Yelp for reviews about dental offices, not just in the area, since I was willing to drive anywhere for a pleasant experience. I came across Mint Dental Loft on multiple review sites and their feedback really stood out for me. There were an abundance of other dental offices that did “great work” and were “very professional” but Mint Dental had reviews that showcased how much they cared about their patients from the first point of contact. I called in to schedule an appointment, I spoke with the receptionist Tania who was very friendly and able to get me in office in a timely manner. On my visits I was greeted by each member of the staff in a cordial fashion. Tania and Janet at the front desk were extremely helpful. Jasmine, the dental assistant to Dr. Han, continued the warm and friendly demeanor as she greeted me and took me back for x-rays and room/chair designation. All of Dr. Han’s equipment is pretty fancy and high tech. Nothing is old or dated. The decor is up to date as well. The views from the dental chairs showcase the beautiful San Gabriel mountains, giving you a sense of peace and relief, if you are a person who suffers that pre-dental work anxiety it helps puts you at ease.. They have an iPad where you can watch movies/tv shows while Dr. Han and Jasmine work on your teeth, this really makes the time fly by during those longer visits. Dr. Han is extremely kind and professional. She makes you feel comfortable and is always checking to make sure you have no pain and are doing well. She explained every procedure that she recommended to be completed for healthy teeth. She answered any and every question I had in full detail. She never seemed rushed to get to the next patient. She even followed up on her own personal time after hours to give me a call and see how I was doing or if I had any further questions. I can safely say that my overall experience at Mint Dental Loft has been the best exam/procedure visit from any of the major medical areas (dental, health, vision). Dr. Han and her staff show that a great experience doesn’t just mean getting the work done in a professional and timely fashion, but to also go above and beyond that in caring about your patient and making a connection with them. Dr, Han us compassionate and caring for her staff and her patients. She is a great dentist and person

Dr. Han and her team are AWESOME. I have known for years that I have required major dental work but did not have the confidence in a dentist to do the work UNTIL we met Dr. Han (my wife also required some less radical work). I have to completed my procedure (about 6 months since I started) and my wife has completed her’s. We are both really happy with the results. They is knowledgeable and proficient in all of the trends and the latest techniques – I know the doctors are always attending advanced education seminars. The fees are reasonable and we were kept informed of progress throughout the procedures. Most importantly, Dr Han and her team pay minute attention to every detail.

I did an online search for dentists in my area and found that Mint Dental Loft had a lot of good reviews on yelp. I am sooooo happy that I found them. I had a dentist before but I was looking for someone local and also someone that worked well with kids. My son was 2 years old at the time and I wanted to make sure I found a practice that he and I could both be happy with. So I booked an appointment for a cleaning and was really impressed with the staff and facility. Everything in the office is new and well designed but most importantly the staff was just over the top amazing!! Dr. Han and the staff have done a great job with all the cleanings and procedures I’ve had there. This place is a perfect fit for me and my son

Dr. Han is the best dentist I’ve ever had. Her professionalism, and the staff’s, is most impressive — so much so, that I actually enjoy going to their offices for my appointments. Dr. Han takes time to explain things, and is reassuring, highly ethical, and trustworthy. For years, I’ve had to endure–with other dentists–aggressive selling regarding certain treatment options. But, after speaking with Dr. Han, the issue was far more complicated than I previously had been lead to believe. She takes seriously the maxim of “first, do no harm.” Fall 2018 Update: Dr. Han is wonderfully patient with children. She has a calming bedside manner that will soothe even the most difficult child. And, believe me, my 7-year-old son is difficult, especially when it comes to things like probing his teeth. Recently, his fear got the better of him, and he had a meltdown in her office (despite the sedative effects of nitrous oxide). But Dr. Han kept her cool and took the time — nearly 40 minutes! — to counsel and gently calm him. The degree of patience she demonstrated was extraordinary, far beyond the call of duty. My son now has developed a genuine affection for Dr. Han. So has my 5-year-old daughter — who, at every visit, is thrilled to see Dr. Han. My son and daughter trust and adore her. For this, I credit Dr. Han’s warm demeanor, friendly personality, and obvious skills as a dentist. Dr. Han’s office is a general dentistry practice, but that shouldn’t dissuade you from bringing your children here. Dr. Han taught pediatric dentistry at USC for a number of years; she is an expert on how to communicate with and treat child patients. If you’re looking for a trustworthy dentist for your child, look no further than Dr. Han. She is the real deal

I was suffering from a massive tooth ache and searching all over town for a dental office that was open. I couldn’t find one anywhere. I came upon Mint Dental Loft and saw the lights on with someone inside so I figured I’d give it a shot. It was pretty late. I was desperate and sort of bullied my way into her office but Dr Han was so nice and helpful. She welcomed me in, fixed my toothache, joked around with me, and we’ve been friends ever since. Dr Han, Jasmine, Zinna, and the entire staff are great! They care about healthy teeth and people in general. I’m happy that I found a dentist I can trust. Thank you!

I love this dentist so much, that I dared my husband to join, and just try. He was so impressed, that he didn’t hesitate on switching. My children (7, and 5) go there since they are two, and they always go in with a smile. My daughter Samantha loves Dr. Han so much that she told me since she was 3 that she wants to be a dentist! I’m so glad my daughter has such wonderful role models. Also, I have to mention that my son is on the Autism spectrum, and he trusts Dr. Han more than anybody in the world. I’m sure he will never feel safe with another dentist. She connects with my children like not many people, and it’s all because of what a wonderful professional she is. I have to say that I trust Dr. Han with the replacement of my crowns, and I’m extremely happy with the results. And I’m a perfectionist. My smile is perfect always, Thanks to the excellent care that Dr. Han and her team give me, and my family. Thank you MINT DENTAL LOFT!

Ever since I was a kid I always dreaded going to the dentist. The offices were drab, the magazines were old, the staff were usually hurried, the dentist themselves were cold and unrelatable, so it’s no surprise that I, like many other people, would avoid going to see the dentist. After many years of putting off at least a checkup, which would most likely lead to the discovery of cavities, I decided to make the dreaded call to schedule an appointment. Like most people these days I decided to scour Yelp for reviews about dental offices, not just in the area, since I was willing to drive anywhere for a pleasant experience. I came across Mint Dental Loft on multiple review sites and their feedback really stood out for me. There were an abundance of other dental offices that did “great work” and were “very professional” but Mint Dental had reviews that showcased how much they cared about their patients from the first point of contact. I called in to schedule an appointment, I spoke with the receptionist Tania who was very friendly and personable was able to get me in scheduled for an office visit fairly quickly. On my visits I was greeted by each member of the staff in a cordial fashion. Tania and Janet at the front desk were extremely helpful. The staff would chat with me in the waiting room before being taken inside. Jasmine, the dental assistant to Dr. Han, continued the warm and friendly demeanor as she greeted me and took me back for x-rays and room/chair designation. All of Dr. Han’s equipment is pretty fancy and high tech. Nothing is old or dated. The decor is up to date as well. The views from the dental chairs showcase the beautiful San Gabriel mountains, giving you a sense of peace and relief, if you are a person who suffers that pre-dental work anxiety it helps puts you at ease.. They have an iPad where you can watch movies/tv shows while Dr. Han and Jasmine work on your teeth, this really makes the time fly by during those longer visits. Dr. Han is extremely kind and professional. She makes you feel comfortable and is always checking to make sure you have no pain and are doing well. She explained every procedure that she recommended to be completed for healthy teeth. She answered any and every question I had in full detail. She never seemed rushed to get to the next patient. She even followed up on her own personal time after hours to give me a call and see how I was doing or if I had any further questions. I can safely say that my overall experience at Mint Dental Loft has been the best exam/procedure visit from any of the major medical areas (dental, health, vision). Dr. Han and her staff show that a great experience doesn’t just mean getting the work done in a professional and timely fashion, but to also go above and beyond that in caring about your patient and making a connection with them. Dr. Han is compassionate and caring for her staff and her patients. She is a great dentist and person

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Han’s for about 4 years now. I went to her right out of college after years of not having Dental insurance. She evaluated my dental health and there was a lot that needed to be done after going through college with no dentist. Dr. Han and her assistants were helpful, informative, and gentle. They were transparent about the work I needed and the coverage of my insurance. Throughout these past 4 years, I’ve had a few cavities re-filled with white filling, some new cavities filled, a dental implant, and Invisalign treatment. They helped me better understand my dental health and my teeth are the best they’ve ever been in my life. The office is clean and feels new. And they have the abilities to do a lot in-house. I highly recommend Dr. Han’s office. I recently moved to the South Bay and can’t make the trek out to Altadena anymore, otherwise I would still be a patient here. I am super grateful for the care I received

I just wanted to update my review. I’ve been doing braces with Dr. Han for the last 9 months and I am in awe of her incredible work ethic as well as her commitment to her patients. She doesn’t do the typical office thing of running as many patients through as she can in a day … she spaces out appointments and takes her time with you. Thanks to her, a jaw problem I have had for years is slowly going away and my teeth look better than I ever thought possible. Braces might be a daunting expense, but when you see the amount of time and energy Dr Han puts into you as a patient … you’ll realize you are getting the deal of a lifetime. I’ve come to truly adore her and her staff … they are all absolutely wonderful. I feel really fortunate to have stumbled on her office and am a committed patient for life!

After years of neglect, I have had to have a lot of work done. Doctor Richard is the best! His calm reassuring manor makes me feel at ease. I appreciate him taking the time to thoroughly explain the how and why of the procedures. He is technically very adept, moves smoothly at a quick pace. I feel that he also values the artistry of his work. He wants my teeth healthy and looking good, and he takes the time to fine tune things for optimal results. Pricing is reasonable, they take insurance, and financing is available. Also had good experiences with the hygienists, and all the assistants are friendly and great at what they do. Thanks Mint Dental Loft!

Ok, Your done looking for a dentist!!!! After YEARS of not seeing the dentist I had to make the appointment. My wife told me about this place and how nice it was so I “bit” the bullet and took a chance going in to visit Dr Han. My wife told me that the office was very Pintresty. She was right great comfortable office with nice chairs in the waiting room. My first visit was a great experience considering the work I had to get done. I love the fact that Dr Han is very patient and caring. She always asks if your ok during the visit and is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to taking care of your teeth. I had a lot of questions and she took the time to help me. She’s great and the staff is friendly and helpful. Let’s put it this way. I live in Burbank and drive out to Altadena to get my visits in. Stop in and get a exam today, make sure to thank me later
A WORD FROM YOUR DOCTOR

We also work to inform you of how the function of your oral structures affects your dental health and overall wellbeing as we provide comprehensive dental care in Altadena, California. Mint Dental Loft was founded by Dr. Tran Han. This practice was created because she wanted to provide the best dental care possible for everyone. Working as an associate for many years Dr. Han did not like how the business of dentistry was and how insurance plans dictate the care and well being of her patients. So she decided to open her own practice. Her goal was aimed at opening a practice that is patient centered where the ULTIMATE goal was creating an environment where patients come to get healthy and stay healthy! She is an advocate for her patients—working together to come up with plans that help maintain oral health so that dentistry is never a problem in life. There are too many problems to handle in the game of life! It would be nice if dentistry just wasn’t one of them! Dr. Tran Han received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the USC School of Dentistry in 2007. After graduating, Dr. Han was invited to become a full-time faculty member at the USC School of Dentistry and taught dental students in the Division of Dental Public Health and Pediatric Dentistry for nine years. She is a member of the American Dental Association and is currently serving as the President of the Southern California Academy of General Dentistry. On a personal note, she is a self-declared foodie and loves to eat! She believes one of the greatest joys in life is to share tasty food with friends and loved ones. In her free time, she loves playing with her 6-year-old son as well as staying active with her yoga practice and spinning. She is also passionate about traveling and immersing herself in other cultures. Mint Dental Loft was created by Dr. Han because she wanted a calm, relaxed environment where patients would WANT to come for their dental care. She strongly believes in mutual communication and thoroughly explains treatment options to patients under her care. Dr. Han’s practice philosophy is focused on being as conservative as possible, while maintaining the health of the teeth, the gums, the TMJ and the muscles that encompass the entire oral system. The mission of her practice is to help as many people as possible establish good routine dental care so that they can maintain healthy teeth, gums, joints and muscles for life.
