PATIENT REVIEWS

Pacific Coast Orthodontics takes a systematic approach to orthodontics. My son has been examined several times and his need for braces is there but is not being rushed due to some existing baby teeth. To me this means, he doesn’t have to wear braces two separate times in his life. A number of our friends’ children have had braces twice and it seems so difficult for the kids. My daughter is a candidate for Invisalign Teen and is super excited about not having to wear metal braces. Dr. van den Berg always takes the time to explain to me the specific progress details at each appointment. 

End of 2017, I was receiving Invisalign treatment from another orthodontist in the area. When he told me he needed to put in a dental crown on a perfectly healthy tooth, I realized something was wrong. I called Dr. Van for a second opinion, and after conducting a full diagnosis (which he did not charge me for, by the way), he discovered that the root of another one of my teeth had been badly bent by the original orthodontist’s treatment! Dr. Van then immediately called the first orthodontist on my behalf and made it clear that he had to fix this mistake. Only when the first orthodontist refused to help without further charges, Dr. Van performed the operation himself. I am so grateful to Dr. Van for advocating on my behalf even though I was not his patient. It’s clear that he is guided by doing what is right for the patient – in the end, he fixed the crooked root and saved me from installing a dental crown. Dr. Van is a professional of the highest integrity and competence, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs an orthodontist!

Dr. V is amazing and very professional to work with. I saw him when I was in middle school and I am currently post college graduate. I went in for a check-up re: my retainer and it has been more than 12 years since my last visit- let me tell you that the quality of his care has not changed one bit. His office is clean, modern, and friendly. I currently live in Alaska but I waited until I flew in to visit my family then I also stopped by Dr. V’s office. Worth the wait!

Dr. Van Den Berg is a fantastic orthodontist.  Very professional, always courteous and accommodating.  Two years ago when I began Invisalign treatment, I found Dr. Van Den Berg’s practice through Invisalign’s recommendation, as well as asking around the local community.  He came very highly recommended all the way around and I now know why.  Having taken part in some of Inivisaligns developments as well as the extensive training he’s received, I felt my teeth were in good hands.  Turns out I was right.  He was spot on with diagnosis and a best course of treatment.  I felt very “taken care of” during the treatment process.  All that combined with a knowledgeable and friendly staff to address your every concern, I recommend Dr.Van Den Berg and his team without any reservation what so ever.  Great job Dr. V!!!

Pacific Coast Orthodontics appointments go so smoothly and painlessly that I’m always a bit surprised. Dr. Van Den Berg and his staff are very professional and really do care for their patients. They’re also kind people. I definitely recommend PCO for anyone looking to get braces, invisalign, and post-treatment care in the area. Appointments during braces treatment can be frequent, so it’s nice to live close to the office.

My daughter was very nervous starting treatment. I love that she was able to use the I-tero scan and not have to worry about the impressions. Those can be very intimidating for kids. She is undergoing her Invisalign Teen and could not be happier. She tells me everyday how thankful she is that she doesn’t have to experience braces…and that she doesn’t get food stuck in her teeth like some of her friends. Dr. V is more than patient with her and she enjoys seeing the changes that are occurring. Best investment ever! 🙂 Thanks again!

My children have been going to Dr. Van den Berg for 8 years. One has completed Phase I and Phase II braces. Two others have completed Phase I. I’ve found Dr. Van den Berg to be professional, thoughtful, communicative, and very pleasant with the kids. He doesn’t just recommend “old school” techniques, and the results have been great thus far. I also highly recommend his office for the rest of the office staff. His assistant is highly trained and professional as well, and his office manager always seems well-organized. We have never been left in the dark about our kids’ treatment plans, and Dr. Van den Berg has always been responsive to their needs. I would highly recommend him, either for your children, or for adults, as he is also a specialist with the Invisalign product line.

Our experience at Pacific Coast Orthodontics has been wonderful. People are very friendly. They are very accommodating to your schedule when making appointments. We are very happy with our daughters orthodontics result. People at the office are very professional. We highly recommend Pacific Coast Orthodontics.

My two sons are patients of Dr. van den Berg and they have had the best orthodontic experience. Dr. V makes every visit fun and the procedures were comfortable and easy. Both boys were scanned before their treatments and they didn’t have impressions taken, which made them very happy. This is a very fun office, his staff dresses up for Halloween and the place always has a new theme that is decorated for. I have recommended this office to several of my friends and they have started their own treatments or their kids treatments here. I love how my straight my sons teeth are now and recommend Dr. V 100%!!!!

I came from a dentist that I had been going to for about 10 years and I transferred my Invisalign treatment. Dr Van den Berg and his team accepted me after a frustrating experience. My Invisalign treatment was to only last 6 months. After two years of bad moldings and trays that didn’t fit, a friend referred me to Dr Van den Berg and he completed my treatment in one swoop! My teeth look and feel great now and I owe it to Dr Van den Berg. With the latest technology, he was able to create the smile I’ve always wanted. I really enjoyed how close him and his team are, and couldn’t help but laugh when I arrived on Halloween to a team of Elvis’s to work on my teeth! Dr VDB accepted me as a an unhappy and frustrated transfer patient who thought my Invisalign treatment was failed. He turned it around in a short a mount of time and I am very pleased with the results.

Updated review: My experience has been nothing but pleasant whenever I walk in the door to Pacific Coast. A year later, and I cannot be more pleased with my results!! Dr. van den Berg is always so sweet every appointment I had- encouraging, positive, and professional. That’s one thing- I would see the Dr. every single appointment. I think that’s very professional and important. Another thing I love about Pacific Coast is their flexibility. I’m a full time worker, and could barely find the time to come in for appointments. They always knew I had to be somewhere so they would be very efficient in a short amount of time. It’s so great to be honored as a client there. You can really feel the love in this office. My results with Invisalign are spectacular. I’m so happy with the way my teeth look. It really is a wonderful experience to look at your smile that you’ve worked so hard on. Pacific Coast is a great place to start Invisalign for the first time. The staff is very encouraging, and positive! Thank you, Pacific Coast for my new smile!! I love it every time I look in a mirror.

When I went in for my evaluation I immediately felt comfortable and confident that pacific coast was gonna get the job done. I had been to several places all of which told me my treatment would require several years and a lot of metal appliances in my mouth. But when I came to pacific coast they were able to provide me a treatment that only took a year and a half and no metal was required!!! They were able to correct my awful overbite with Invisalign alighners and I couldn’t be more thankful. I love pacific coast and all that they have done for me and my smile. Avarie Phillips❤️

Dr. Vandenberg and his staff are great!! They have seen me through preparation for jaw osteotomy of my lower jaw and afterwards. Post-op they were very gentle and made sure I was ok before proceeding. My daughter also had braces, a expander and finally no braces with a retainer now !!! The staff is very attentive, always very patient with me and my daughter. They always explain everything before they are going to do it. Everyone is always in a great mood, happy and smiling! Keep up the good work!!

I was having some restoration dentistry done and my cosmetic dentist referred me to Dr. Rob Van den Berg, to improve my alignment. His office is equipped with the best digital technology available. He and his entire staff are caring and put the patient first. He explained his treatment plan in an unrushed fashion and answered all my questions thoroughly. Dr. Van den Berg is treating me using Invisalign, a series of clear, almost invisible, smooth plastic trays worn over my teeth which gently shift the teeth into alignment. I change to a new Invisalign tray each week and there is absolutely no pain. It is easy for me to remove the trays to eat anything I want and to brush thoroughly, and then to reinsert them. No one can even tell I am having orthodontic treatment! Dr. Van den Berg is an extremely skilled and compassionate doctor. I am completely satisfied with his treatment and the results. Dr. Bert G., MD (retired Physician)

Dr. Van den Berg and his staff are amazing. You feel like family every time you walk in the door. They always ask how is the dog…how is the wife? In addition to the friendliness Dr. V and his assistants took a mouth of adult teeth that were crooked, gapped in the front, growing in so the sides were the top of my teeth and created a very confident smile. I can’t thank them enough for helping me finally get the teeth I have always wanted.

I transferred my Invisalign treatment to Dr. Van den Berg when I moved from out of state. Based on my experience with my previous orthodontist, I thought the treatment was pretty cut and dry–you just follow the outline that Invisalign provides. After meeting with Dr. Van den Berg, I realized this was not the case. His expertise became immediately obvious when he determined tweeks and changes that needed to be made to keep my teeth on track. He even started a brand new treatment with me when it was apparent that the path I was on wasn’t effective enough. He knew immediately when something wasn’t working and took the appropriate steps to course-correct. My teeth were so bad, I only expected them to be “better” than they were, but my results are AMAZING! And, the entire staff is so kind, warm, and friendly. I ALWAYS had a pleasant experience no matter who was assisting me. I can’t thank you all enough!

Dr. van den Berg is one of the best! Not only is he very knowledgeable, he is kind and cares for his patients. My daughter had her braces through this office and she had the best experience…she actually likes going! The staff is always warm and pleasant, which makes going to the orthodontist so much easier. If you need your teeth straightened or whitened, this is the place to come!!

My daughter was 10 when we first saw Dr. Vandenberg, as he was one of 4 orthodontists we went to for an estimate. We lived 35 miles away from his office, but he had been highly recommended and I was dissatisfied with the other assessments, so we decided to try him out. Dr. Vandenberg admitted my daughter would be one of his tougher cases for Invisalign because of her overcrowding, misalignment and other extreme factors, but he assured us his work would produce a beautiful smile. He waited patiently for some more teeth to fall out, fitted her with an expander first, then 60+ trays of Invisalign over the course of almost 2 years. The result has been nothing less than AMAZING. My now 14-year old daughter has been able to start high school with perfectly straight and aligned teeth! She didn’t have to go through the extra pain and expense of extractions (which every other orthodontist insisted on), and was eased through the process by Dr. Vandenberg’s excellently-trained, professional staff. It was worth every penny and every mile we drove to experience Dr. Vandenberg’s superior orthodontic talent. Unlike other orthodontists we saw, he never gave us a hard sell or pressured us to go with a certain course of treatment to make more money…he was straightforward and honest and followed through with every promise. Thank you, Dr. Vandenberg, Danielle, Marcy, Melissa and Sarah! Pacific Coast Orthodontics is THE BEST!

Everyone at Pacific Coast orthodontics is top notch. Each person is excellent in their role at the office. Appointments are on time. If you have a problem they will fit you in. The environment is friendly and clean. All involved made my experience at Pacific Coast orthodontist go smoothly. Now I am working towards the perfect smile! Can’t wait to see my final results! My sincere gratitude to Dr. Van den Berg and his team.

Pacific Coast Orthodontics is a wonderful place to get your braces, invisalign, & post-treatment care (including retainers). I really liked how Dr. Van Den Berg took the time to get to know me, and his staff are wonderful people as well. Each appointment was a painless experience that I was able to look forward to. Anyone who lives in the area who wants braces should definitely check this place out! It’s easy to see that they are concerned for and care about each of their patients.

I can strongly recommend PCO for both Invisalign and regular braces. After my teens successfully got great smiles with traditional braces, I decided it was my turn ( never too late) and entered the world of Invisalign. Dr. Rob always finds the best solution and has a very realistic approach. But it is his Wonderful team and amazing technical assistant that makes your visit fun and easy. #smilelikeaboss #PCO #Splash

Dr. Van den Berg and his amazing team were very professional and easy to work with. We moved across the country in the middle of our son’s orthodontic treatment and Dr. Van den Berg was willing and able to help mid-treatment. We appreciate their patient care and ease to schedule. His team is great with kids of all ages and needs. I would highly recommend Pacific Coast Orthodontics to anyone looking for excellent care, attention to deal, and personalized care.

My daughter and son have been patients of Dr. Van Den Berg since 2010. My daughter is now on her second phase of treatment and, while my son just got his first set of braces a couple of months ago, he has been seeing Dr. Van Den Berg periodically to monitor his status. Both my children have large teeth for a smaller than average mouth so they are particularly challenging. Dr. Van Den Berg has been fantastic in minimizing extractions. He and his staff are very skilled professionals. They inform my children and I of the procedures they are doing and what to expect next.They also listen to my kids’ concerns and do what they can to reduce discomfort. They are a very supportive team! Plus, they are fun and strive to make appointments a positive experience by having contests, decorating for holidays and even dressing up for Halloween. And, ever so important too, we have never had to wait for an appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Van Den Berg and his team. There are orthodontists closer to our home but we are glad we decided to drive the extra miles for the great treatment. Thank you, Jacqui

Dr. V is amazing and very professional to work with. I saw him when I was in middle school and I am currently post college graduate. I went in for a check-up re: my retainer and it has been more than 12 years since my last visit- let me tell you that the quality of his care has not changed one bit. His office is clean, modern, and friendly. I currently live in Alaska but I waited until I flew in to visit my family then I also stopped by Dr. V’s office. Worth the wait!

After much research (5 orthodontics later), I finally was ready to do something for my self. Important things to mention: Dr. Van den Berg is a Invisalign Platinum Provider. Why is this important?…experience! His office also has an iTero 3D teeth scanner. I had a gap that I always hated and felt embarrassed when I smiled. This procedure was going to be life changing for me and that is why I did so much research. Price was always in the same range. What surprised me was that not everyone had the same plan for my teeth. One orthodontist wanted to remove teeth…. hello I’m trying to close a gap! Right away I felt comfortable with Dr. Van den Berg and staff. Danielle was great in providing all of the information and super friendly. I never felt pressured which is very important. Dr. Van den Berg is very gentle when handling your mouth. I had some IPR done and was terrified, but don’t worry with his gentle and careful technique you won’t feel a thing. I stuck to the rules and was done super early. If you are considering Invisalign just do it! I’m so happy I did. Here is the proof 🙂

I was recommended to Pacific Coast Orthodontics from another dentist to work on aligning my bite which was the result of a bad car accident. During my initial consultation, Dr. Van Den Berg recommended that I go with Invisalign to fix my issue. I was a bit skeptical that Invisalign would work but in further discussion it seemed like the best option. I have since completed the process and I am extremely happy with the results. My bite is realigned and I have no issues with eating. Throughout the process the staff was extremely helpful knowledgeable throughout the process. I would certainly recommend Pacific Coast Orthodontics to anyone who needs quality work done.

I am 38 and had lived with badly aligned teeth for most of my life, so I decided to find out if Invisalign could help me. I am in sales and was concerned about having metal braces and how that might impact my career. I began doing research on local doctors who used Invisalign and after months of digging on-line I decided to sit down with Dr. Van den Berg for a consultation. The fact that he was one of the early adopters of this new technology and has been asked by Invisalign to speak around the country gave me the confidence to look into it further. He talked me through the process and expected time line and I was very impressed. A short two years later my smile, something I would hide, is just about perfect. Something I never thought would be possible. I now have to remember that I no longer have to cover my mouth when I smile. I would recommend anyone to him with absolute confidence. Dr. Van den Berg and his entire staff are professional, personable and it is obvious to me that they all love what they do. Refreshing concept these days. Call him now…you’ve put this off long enough!!! Your smile misses you.

Dr. Van Den Burg has been beyond amazing. He’s dealt with me for a few years now and has been extremely patient especially when dealing with all of my concerns! (let’s be honest I’m super picky when it comes to my teeth) he literally met every need and did so in a very fast and knowledgeable manner. I can’t thank him as well as his staff enough. My appointments were very well planned out the wait is always quick and the office is extremely clean! I finally got my braces off and I can’t be happier. If your looking for a cool ortho with a fun and decorated (super cute based on the holiday) I highly recommend this office!!!!!! Thank you Dr. Van Den Burg you’re the best

My friend referred me to Dr Rob. I can’t express how grateful to see Dr. Rob after my daughter had the accident trauma. The office was able to give me an appointment right away. Dr. Rob is very professional and patience to listen up all of my questions and concern, and provides the solution for us. He even goes the extra mile for my daughter to make sure she has something to cover her lost front tooth right away. Dr. Rob truly cares of his patients than making money. Thank you very much for helping us in this critical moment.

If you are thinking about starting straightening your teeth and are seeking a good orthodontist, Dr. van der Berg is a great choice! I have been under his care for the past two years, and Dr. van der Berg and his team have provided great, skillful and professional treatments. The results for my teeth are wonderful. I am very happy with the choice I made, and strongly recommend him for you!! — Ying Q

I was referred to Dr. Van den Berg by my dentist. We had been with another orthodontist for 3 1/2 years and my son’s treatment was not moving forward. We brought him to Dr. Van den Berg who had to re-bracket most of his teeth, but we were very glad we made the switch. My son’s teeth turned out beautiful and we are pleased with the result. The office staff is very friendly and kind and they work hard to accomodate a family’s busy schedule. I also switched my daughters to him for replacement retainers and he did a great job on those too.

My daughter Samantha was referred to Dr Van den Berg by a close family friend and “word of mouth”. We did see a few different orthodontists and received several quotes and we chose to go with Dr. V. His prices are very reasonable, payment plans are affordable and I like that my daughter gets checked by Marcy and Dr V at every visit. I believe consistency is key! His staff is very friendly, professional, knowledgeable, gentle and caring. Appointments run on time and everything from phase 1, phase 2, retainers and follow-ups were thorough and a positive experience for my daughter. And even better, straight and pretty teeth! I highly recommend a visit to this office 🙂

If your in need of the absolute “Best”, then you must call Dr. Rob! From the front of house, to Dr. Rob himself, the treatment you’ll receive, will far surpass anything you’ve  experienced, “ever”. The office is run by “hearts” a plenty, and the skills of Dr. Rob are well worth the call itself. Why hesitate? If you “need” expert assistance, “this” IS the Dr. to call, a.s.a.p.! He’ll take care of everything, Beautifully!
