Front desk was kind and helpful in explaining details about procedures, length of time it’ll take and cost of my implant. Of most places, the cost here for my implant was the least expensive.Alex was through in explaining and answering any concerns I had, was confident and I didn’t feel rushed.When I first reach out to make an appointment, my experience was lacking but when I actually arrived the day of the appointment. I was pleasantly satisfied with my outcome.Dentist experience are never fun but I feel more at ease when I’m treated kindly and my dentist is confident. I’m waiting to hear back from them when my insurance approves of my procedure and is very happy I can finally start this. It’s been over 3 years wait. Finding the right dentist within your budget is always a struggle.

Dr Alex is the absolute best Ortho by far an I did go to five others before I found Dr Alex!!! He had my daughters under bite an crossed bite fixed within a matter of months and she is only 8! Her braces are almost already ready to come off an her teeth look fabulous! Dr Alex is not only gentle an expert at what he does an truly cares! I highly recommend him thank you for being so amazing Dr Alex from Stacy Eckert Makayla Weiss mom!

I was very nervous to get work done but the doctor was amazing. He made sure I felt no pain for my root canal. The staff were sweet and very friendly. They worked around my crazy schedule and were very commutative. More work needs to be done and I’m very happy I chose this office.

This dental office is great! The office staff is friendly and helpful. The hygienist is thorough and works well with kids. Most of all, I appreciate their honesty and no pressure approach. They do a good job in assessing your needs, educating you and allowing you to make the decision on your treatment. (This is such a relief to many dental offices who pressure you into unnecessary procedures for money...grrrrr...). Thank you, Smiles by Alex!

Alex of Smiles By Alex and his entire staff take good care of me every time I go in. Had the second molar pulled today and prepared with a bone graft for a Tooth Implant. And this molar was the hell of all molars, but Dr. Alex kept cool - like he had done other tough ones like this many times and that kept me from getting panicky. All and all - great job. Great people. And reasonable pricing. You just cant go wrong picking Smiles By Alex!

I was at a crossroads with my teeth 5 years ago. I grind my teeth in my sleep and being in my 60s...well..time to do something drastic. Dr. Alex is just the perfect dentist in this situation. He is honest with his analysis and explained completely my options. He made the extensive process I needed much less stressful (and painless) than I ever anticipated. I truly love my teeth and him !!! I am happy to be back in So.Cal. and in his care again after being out of town for a couple of years.Thank you very much for my smile :)Appreciatively,Amy.

Caring and professional staff. I have never had a less than wonderful experience at Smiles By Alex. The staff is courteous and helpful, not to mention talented at their specific role. I always feel appreciated here, unlike other dentists I have visited.You will never be talked into something that you dont need, and options are always provided. Highly recommend!

Im a new customer to Smiles by Alex, and I can honestly say that Im very impressed with the work they are performing on my teeth.Let me share a little about myself. I relocated to California for some years now, Im originally from Hawaii, and when it comes to TRUSTING someone, especially whom I dont quite know, I have to make sure I feel good about who I place my life into their hands. With absolutely no knowledge of this dentistry, and only going by the looks of an advertisement and offer they were offering, I walked into their office hoping to accomplish what I was set out to do. And to my surprise, Im walking out of there a BRAND NEW PERSON, with the most BEAUTIFULEST SMILE that Ive ever had for 51 years of my life. Thanks to Dr. Alex and his hygienist assistance, they are the GREATEST!!! His assistant D, she is the most PLEASANT person. I cant thank them enough for the reconstruction of my teeth. You guys are the best!!!

Dr. Alex is a very knowledgeable dentist in many areas of dentistry. He is honest & fair. I went to him for a 2nd opinion and he advised that I did not need the services that another dentist had recommended. The office is very clean & modern and the staff is very pleasant and friendly. I recommend Dr. Alex to all of my friends and family.

Dr Alex, has treated my family for some time, I had moved away and seen other Dentists that were closer. I am now going back to Dr Alex, regardless of the drive. He is always friendly, very clean and professional. It is hard to find someone you really trust.Without sales pitches and extra charges. I do have knowledge about the importance of Dentistry in relation to your health. I would highly recommend Him and his staff for an all around professional experience.

What a wonderful experience! Dr Alex and his Staff were truly kind and professional and always made me feel like everything was going to be OK. Dr Alex constantly asked me if I was in any type of pain throughout my procedures and made me feel at ease throughout the whole experience (which was wonderful, may I add!). Thank you Dr Alex and Staff, I will definitely be back!

Excellent service and care! I had a very thorough cleaning and training session yesterday by Catherine!. This was the first cleaning visit where the dentist was called over to check my xrays and teeth in 3 years. It was also the first visit since January. Because of the Pandemic, I was not able to get a cleaning at a three month time period in more than 10 years!Thank you for the excellent services yesterday!

Review №33

Cat is the best hygienist. She took the time to review xrays in detail with me. Taught me a better way to brush my teeth, use a water pik and we discussed oral hygiene in general. Cannot say enough positive things about Cat and the entire staff. Comfortable place to go for dental work.

Well, as most people Im not a big fan of going to the dentist. After over twenty years of not going the time came ... Got to go, got issues.....Smiles By Alex is a must have dental experience. The staff is over the top with top cabin care. The dental hygienists Cat is a true pro that will make you feel at ease. Dr. Alex Nguyen will also give you a calm feeling also. I give the entire staff six stars for this review they are the top of the mark.Mike Linkiewicz

Review №36

After a bad experience at Gentle Dentle Costa Mesa, I had several coworkers recommend Smiles by Alex. I was skeptical at first. However, the doctor and my hygienist at Smiles by Alex have been great. They do not recommend unneeded treatments, they do not sugar coat their diagnosis, and they do not charge unreasonable rates for questionable work. My hygienist in particular has been fantastic - she has worked with me to correct my periodontal issues, and keeps on me to do the things at home that that will keep down my expenses at the dentist. Its refreshing to feel like these folks actually have my best interests in mind.

With out a doubt the best dental experience Ive ever had. Ive had a deep fear of dentists for as long as I can remember. Dr. Alex is, and has been, the only dentist that I dont fear. Hes amazingly kind, his staff is exceptionally empathetic and the service is top notch!Ive had two major procedures done by Dr. Alex in the past two months, and I have another one coming up soon to finish me off. For the first time in my life Im actually looking forward to going to the Dentist and getting my teeth fixed. How awesome is that? :)If I could I would shout his praises from the roof top :)

Review №47

This is my 2nd time visiting Smiles By Alex. I have an unhealthy fear of the dentist as most people have. The 1st time I visited I had to have a bottom tooth extracted. Alex worked on me and talked me through it the whole time, asking if I was ok and how I was feeling. He reassured me the entire time along with his assistants.So when I had to go back for a 2nd visit, a little over a year later (I have no insurance thats why the long wait) I was naturally a little scared to find out what was wrong but not nervous about how I would be treated. Seen Dr Day who was super sweet and very reassuring and put my heart at ease. Nice to know that the dentists (not just Alex) care deeply about their patients. Thank you to all the Doctors, assistants and staff, you are amazing!

Words can not describe the quality of this entire Office environment ...Dr Alex and his entire staff No Joke Are dedicated to assuring your Stay is comfortable.I came to Alex place after a family member made clear this would be rhe opportunity of a lifetime.Without a doubt Dr Alex Has a Sincere care giving heart and he’s my Hero. My Family was right I don’t think there’s any place like this Group of Caring Staff.Dr Alex the 2nd time had to reconsider a treatment and send back my Crown rather than complete the process it was his experience and Judgement that we should undergo a new impression and I was given a temporary and was told to return in 3 weeks.Came back this time (3) and sure enough Dr Alex Gave the Green Light this Tooth is Ready. What a relief for a person to go through. I’m very Extremely SatisfiedI can finally smile again.The Dream has come true and I will personally Adcocate Smiles By Alex.for anyone who needs a Dentist who takes all Insurance and they Are Experts in Cosmetic Dentiistry. Give them the Task they will change your life forever.Hope to see my before and after dental Miracle one day on their Website.My Dental work was Fixed miraculously by Dr Alex and his Female Staff and for this I’m forever Grateful.Get this ,They will work with a payment plan upon approval.My experience will always keep me coming back.Again ,Thanks Very Kindly ,-Tommy H.B

Dr. Alex is an artist. I dont know where to start. I have had 5 dentists in my life. I will not go to anyone except Dr Alex. I came in off a referral and have yet to be dissapointed in the least. Tough as a customer in general working on cruise ships full time I travel the world and always find time to make it to my dentist Dr Alex.

No actual work done yet but everything thus far has been honest and up front with no hype or attempts to upsell with unnecessary extras. Dr. Nguyen is very personable and understanding of your circumstances.I have appointment in two weeks, so will know more then... Hopefully I can edit this to give 5 Stars when I get the complete experience. Right now though....seems to have an excellent beginning. Found them all to be great to deal with, which took the edge off.UPDATE 9/22/17.....Started work today and have the remainder scheduled. Very satisfied all around. Dr. Nguyen lived up to my first impressions (above) and he and his staff were all very pleasant and professional. The old crown removal and installation of the temporary this afternoon were painless. Off to a good start :) 5 Stars.UPDATE 11/14/17......Have gotten a lot more done over the past two months (two lower extractions, bone grafts, root canal and crown, deep cleanings and two fillings, plus a permanent upper and temporary lower partial), all done with little or no pain. Permanent frontier crown looks great and matches perfectly.....whats not to like? Dr. Nguyen and his entire staff have been great for me...still 5 Stars. Now just waiting for the implants.Update 7-23-18: Another painless visit to prep for final implant crown installation in another 3 weeks. Almost done now! :)Update 8-14-18: YAY!!! Got both implants put in today and am very pleased with the result! As always, Dr. Nguyens expertise and excellent staff (Liberty today) made it a smooth and painless ordeal. Glad the wait is over, they look and feel great. Couldnt want more than that.....:)Update 1-23-19: Had an appointment today for cleaning and checkup. As usual, Cat the excellent Hygienist did a fantastic job!!! Shes very professional and observant in making sure your mouth stays healthy and addressing any issues she might find. Also, shes a great teacher, Ive learned a lot from her and have been better off all around in my hygienebecause of it. Teeth are clean and mouth feels fresh....Im happy, and well do it again in six months 😁 Entire staff at SMILES BY ALEX is excellent to deal with. You dont see that often enough these days.Update 11/19/19: Another appointment with Kat... As always, very pleasant and thorough. She keeps me in line with my care and brushing technique and I take it all to heart. As a result my oral health has vastly improved in the three years Ive been a patient. I really appreciate all she does!From the Front Desk on back, EVERYONE has been great at what they do!!7/16/20: Appointment to finish prep for implants. Went well as always. Implants should be in soon.11/27/20: Went last week for renewing the small coffee stained old porcelain fillings on two front teeth and WOW!!, what a difference! I was totally ecstatic. PERFECT match and completely natural in every way. Really improved my smile more than I would have ever guessed it would. Dark spots are gone!! Dr. Alex and his able Assistant Thanh performed the work....no pain as usual, so thats always a big plus 👍.
