Edwin Tjan, DDS

I’m sorry it took me so long to write this review! I started going to Dr. Tjan about six years ago, after seeing another dentist who did a very bad job with a couple of crowns. I ended up having the crowns redone by Dr. Tjan, and of course, the insurance would not pay because it had been less than 5 years.
Dr. Tjan is very conscientious and takes his time to make sure the bite is satisfactory, and that everything feels okay before you leave. He is very gentle and checks to see if you are comfortable during the procedure.
I would recommend Dr. Tjan, especially to those who may be dentist phobic or have had bad experiences at the dentist’s office. He will make you feel at ease.

My kids are the 3^rd generation in our family to go to this practice. Dr. Tjan took over about 8 years ago when Dr. Creer retired. WE LOVE DR. TJAN!
Never once have we been told we needed unnecessary procedures. My mom, kids and I go in every 6 months for cleanings.
This last time, for the first time ever, it was discovered that my youngest had two cavities (GASP!). Dr. Tjan recommended we see a pediatric dentist because she’s only 7 and she might do better in a pediatric setting. We saw the pediatric dentist (that’s a whole other review.) and didn’t like what he had to say (he wanted to put my daughter under a general anesthesia to fill one and then REMOVE the other!). I called Dr. Tjan and he agreed to fill the cavities, doing the smaller one first one day and then coming back a second time to do the bigger one.
Dr. Tjan does not use gas in his office. I can see why. With his gentle hand and calm manner a shot of Novocaine was injected and my little one was very comfortable during the procedure. Dr. Tjan went slowly and gently and all was fine. We came back a week later for the more extensive filing and again, Dr. Tjan was wonderful and took his time making sure my daughter was happy and comfortable.
I cannot recommend Dr. Tjan and his staff enough (Trish, his assistant is super nice, easy to talk to, and just a really good person. she also had a big role in making my daughter feel at ease!). He’s patient, calming, gentle and doesn’t recommend unneeded procedures like so many other dentists.
I’m sorry my daughter had two cavities (bad mommy for not flossing faithfully) but so happy she was able to get the dental work she needed without the unnecessary anesthesia the other dentist wanted to use.
YAY FOR DR. TJAN AND HIS STAFF!!! Even if you don’t like going to the dentist, you will be comfortable and well taken care of here!

Quite simply, the best dentist I’ve come across in the last 63 years. this guy is truly the «painless» dentist we all hear about. VERY high quality work.
And he gives a 10% senior discount!
