N & M Dental Care

I recently had 2 fillings replaced and felt it was time to acknowledge the good work. I’ve entrusted the care of my teeth to N&M for years (easily over 15). In the last few, I have been more diligent — thanks to the receptionist’s friendly reminders and willingness to put up with my scant availability and last minute changes. The people here always greet me and are kind, patient, and full of positive energy.
In my latest visit, I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of pain during the procedure as my old filling was removed and replaced. I have a low pain tolerance, but I seriously didn’t feel a thing! It really makes visits to the dentist something you don’t need to dread. Dr. Ma is especially methodical and pays close attention to detail. You are in very good hands here!

I have been here since I was little and can’t think of going anywhere else. Dr. Ma is very gentle and knowledgable. He really takes care of his patients and the staff is great. I recently had my teeth cleaned by the hygienist, Helen. She takes her time to really make sure your teeth are clean and clear of any stains. Highly recommended!

My third visit here and this was the best one yet. Dr. Chavez is by far the most caring, gentle, thorough dentist I have ever met. She took her time throughout the procedure all along while she was notifying me of all the steps she was doing, that made me feel very comfortable. The beautiful Sharika was assisting the whole time and also made sure I was being taken care of. Highly recommend this office.

I’ve been going here for over 10 years, and the service is always good. I just recently had my filling done here with Dr. Ma and it was great. He did it fairly quick and carefully, and explained clearly everything he was doing. The staff is always super friendly and nice. And when I had my cleaning, the assistant gave me advice about what I could do extra to help protect my teeth. I would recommend this office for their good care and attention to your teeth!

Dr. Ma is wonderful. I had a large filling replaced and didn’t feel a thing!

I have been going to N&M Dental for years now because I really liked Dr. Nguyen. She was very attentive and friendly. She started to work less and less a few years ago. She has officially retired and no longer comes into the office at all. Ever since Dr. Nguyen stopped coming in, I kept getting reassigned to someone else for my regular teeth cleaning visits. I usually get Dr. Chavez whenever I come in for my cleaning. She is not bad but not attentive like Dr. Nguyen. I have never been a fan of the receptionists at N&M but I ignored that and continued to come back since I did not want to change dental offices. It wasn’t until recently that I decided it was time to find a new dental office. What irritated me the most about this office is the fact that no one ever picks up the phone whenever I tried to call to reschedule or make a new appointment. I called on several occasions for different reasons but all I got was their voicemail. How can you make an appointment if there was an emergency where you did not have an appointment booked in advance like in the cases of regular teeth cleaning? Overall I had a really good experience here when Dr. Nguyen was still in practice. I wouldn’t recommend this dental office to other people now because the customer service is below average.

I have been going to N&M dental for over ten years. My experience here has been very good; although sometimes, the wait varies from 5 minutes to an hour depending on the day. The dentist and teeth hygienist were very professional and helpful with my teeth. They always answer any questions I have. :)

I give one star because Dr. Ma is pretty good in doing routine cleaning. Other than that, dont even think about it.
I had a horrible experience with Dr. Nguyen who did my implantation.
Long story short, she could not even make a drill in-​range. The implantation exposed OUTSIDE of the augmented bone.
I have x-​rays and credited review by other certified dentist, which I had to see to remove what this dentistry did; redid the augmentation and redid implant.

Honestly I would give this place a one star but there are some nice people working there. Every time I come here, I always have to wait at least an hour before being seen by the dentist. It’s really aggravating because if I show up on time, I should be seen in no later than 20 minutes right? I understand sometimes one patient might take a bit longer than usual, but it shouldn’t take an hour. I came here on Aug 3^rd for my teeth extraction and it took an hour before Dr. Ma treated me. The teeth extraction went well, but I was bothered by how long it took. The treatment should have been only 30 minutes. But instead it took an hour and a half.
My brother and I came on Aug 7^th for our teeth cleaning, and I waited 35 minutes before I was ushered into the treatment room. The lady who cleaned my teeth was Indian and she was exceptionally nice! The Indian dentist was very sincere and friendly. She made me feel very welcome and she was gentle throughout the cleaning procedure. The Vietnamese girl clearly knew what she was doing when she did my X-​rays and she was very sweet as well.
She and the young Vietnamese girl assistant are the reasons why I stay with N&M.
Today I was supposed to have another teeth extraction. Due to the constant long wait times every appointment, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to be 15 minutes late. They always make me wait anyways right? When I called them saying I would be there in 10 minutes, the girl receptionist rudely told me they were going to have to reschedule me. It really annoyed me because you guys make me wait AN HOUR every single time anyways. What’s the point of rescheduling me to a different day? I was extremely irritated with this treatment. They should have just seen me honestly.
If this was TL;DR the treatments are overall okay. I just really hate the service and wait times. Watch out for the receptionists, they can be pretty rude on the phone.

This place is very fishy about pick and choose patient base on their insurance coverage. They are willing to take away your scheduled appointment with their own stories to someone else. This happened to me today, never going back here. Very unprofessional services.

I’ve been here ever since middle school and I am really satisfied with their service. The receptionists are very nice and polite.
My main dentist is Dr. Daniel Ma. Other dentists have also worked on me for cleaning and wisdom teeth extraction. They are all very professional.
Cleaning is usually quick and easy. Dr. Ma is very gentle with your cleaning. The assistants who polish my teeth in the end are also decent as well.
Overall, I have a pretty good experience with this place.

This place is an absolute joke. They try and up-​sell on everything and then when you decline they respond by providing poor service. I’ve never been to a dentist like this before — TRULY UNPROFESSIONAL!
They also ask a lot of odd personal questions not only about you but about your family — like where do they work, what is their SSN, etc. What business is that of your’s? Their not your patient. Something is very fishy about this establishment.
Finally… Yes, the front desk really is as bad as they say.

Here’s a nifty little fact about Unilocal — the creator wanted an online source to find reputable dentists in an area! So hey, I’m going to do my due diligence here!
N&M Dental has been my primary caretaker since I can remember. Daniel Ma is my main dentist. He’s been there for my braces, retainers, wisdom teeth removals, clean-​ups, extractions, you name it.
I’m still going there after all of these years and here’s why. This place is personable, the location is really convenient, there is plenty of parking, and BLAH BLAH BLAH.
Let’s be real here, you’re looking for a freaking reputable dentist. Daniel Ma is THAT dude. He and his team are consummate professionals. I didn’t blow up like a chipmunk when I had my wisdom teeth extracted. I don’t cry in pain when I hear that godforsaken whizzing metal buzzing sound. Yeah, you KNOW what I’m talking about.
Yeah, you’re gonna squirm a bit, hell you might even pee yourself, but at least the chairs are wrapped in plastic; the hell does that mean? It means you’re good bro. Your teeth hurt a bit? Yeah don’t be a wimp, get that shietnaz checked out HERE. RIGHT. NAO.

Excellent dentist office. Everyone is super nice and caring and they do excellent dental work based on my 4yrs of experiences.

I GIVE THEM NO STAR! WORST DENTAL EXPERIENCE EVERRR!!!
Please stay away from this awful place… Especially Dr. Nguyen!!!
The staff are okay especially the young Asian dental assistant. She’s always so kind and welcoming. The thing I hate most about this place is waiting. I’m not talking about the waiting room but in the room for the dentist. I swear, they make you wait for at least 45 minutes to an hour!!!
Well, I went in for a filling with Dr. Nguyen (EVIL WOMAN). The day I went in, there weren’t anyone but I have to wait for approximately 45 minutes. Honestly, this woman is by far THE WORST DENTIST EVER!!! I’ve never dealt with anyone like her before and hopefully never again! She looks nice but she’s very impatient, rude, and not gentle at all. After she gave me my shots, she started drilling my teeth!!! Who the F**** does that!!! I’m thinking is this b**** crazy!!! My gums were not numb at all. I can feel the pain and told her. She just gave me another shot and started drilling again. This b**** really is crazy and rude!!! She’s careless about what I’ve said! I told her I don’t feel any numbness and she kept drilling like it’s okay. Who the hell treats their patients like that?!
She also tugged at my teeth so hard, the tool was knocking on my other tooth as well. It was pretty painful but she never apologize. She seems like she was rushing to get it done and careless about how much pain she’s causing. I’ve finally had my fillings in and this b**** didn’t care to check my bite either!!! She just told me it’s supposed to be that way. She acted like I’ve never been to a dentist before! My tooth was in pain for several days I guess due to my bite being off so I took it somewhere else to have it taken care of. I’m not going to return to that horrible place and have that evil woman care for my teeth ever again!

based on my friend’s referring (though she had a very bad experience herself much later before I knew it!). I went to this office to install two crowns over my implants.
I had two implants done nicely by a well-​known dentist but very pricey so I thought I need to save some money to shop around for cheaper crowns. N&M quoted me for these crown and the price was reasonable so I went for it.
Two crowns were done with one gap each with their adjacent tooth, you can imagine each time I eat there are food stuffed in between, especially for meat and fibers — pain like hell, my gum always swallen in those areas. I came back and complaint about but she said the gaps are there for floss. what? She didn’t give any suggestion to get it fixed. Certainly I don’t want to have the same lousy dentist to do the work anyway.
This is my experience with this office.

Thank you Dr. Ma & team for your genuine care!
I have been coming to N&M Dental Care since 1994. I completely trust Dr. Daniel Ma with all my dental work. Dr. Ma did my braces, retainers, fillings, and wisdom tooth extractions. He’s very professional, informative, and nice. Dr. Ma does a fantastic job with fillings with white composite. You can’t even tell by looking at my teeth I have fillings!
I always have a great experience with staff. Friendly, address by name, and professional. Princess always greets me with a welcoming smile. Helen, my dental hygienist, is absolutely the best! She truly takes the time to be thorough with her cleaning, and educates me to better my dental care. The office has new technology with their computers and dental images. Definitely will keep coming back!

Hmm, it seems that everyone here has problems with the receptionists/​assistants/​people who are not Dr. Ma or Dr. Nguyen.
I guess it’s kind of the same for me.
I’ve been going to Dr. Nguyen for a while now. She’s done routine check ups on me as well as fillings and even crowns. Excellent service and nice too!
But the other staff in there is a different story.

Minus one star for the receptionists… Some of them are very kind and some of them are just plain rude. This one receptionist did not take her time or care about going over through any procedures with me.
Doctor Ma and Nguyen have been my dentist since I was a child, and I definitely know what dental care is, and that is being comforted in any given situation!
Both of dentists provide me excellent care and service, and I couldn’t imagine switching to a different dental office, but if this kind of service keeps up… I have my doubts.
I highly both these doctors

Bleh. Stay away from here unless you like bitchy receptionists, shady billing, and unfriendly dentists.
I went there for a year, recommended my brother and boyfriend as well since we lived so close. But I sure do regret it.
The one star is for the pretty coral fishtank they have there.
