Gentle Dental Happy Valley

Such a sweet dental facility. Chelsea has always been so warm and welcoming, and today was no exception. I came in during a rush- lobby full, phones ringing, people walking in, and she still had the capacity to slide me over some dental paperwork to do while waiting and have a fun exchange about my wallet (a domo pouch😝) I was taken care of soon after. Special shout out to Nicole today, who was super helpful in answering my questions regarding wisdom teeth removal, and just for being so personable and fun to chat with (; yall rock!!

Lindsay was awesome! She explained everything during my appointment and even gave me a few suggestions for further things to do to help me with my teeth. She was also very pleasant, very friendly and I had a great experience with her. Thank you so much as I will be back.!

1st visit went very well. Started with great patient greeting & service, examiner very detailed with lots of patience, friendly and meet Dr. Ngo and he’s a combined package of everything that I just mentioned.. I felt very comfortable and looking forward for my future appointments. 10+ rating from me!!

Had a really good experience here! The whole staff and the dental assistants were super polite and friendly, plus the wait time was barely anything. The office just has a great vibe, and you can tell the other patients are happy to be there too. The dentist was also really welcoming and honest. Highly recommend them!

I was a little nervous about going to a "corporate/chain" dentist office and, frankly, I mostly wound up going to Gentle Dental because of a favorable scheduling opportunity. It turns out I got lucky. The team has been attentive, friendly, and thorough. I have some decades-old dental work that's ready for an update/repair and the team did a nice job laying out my options for chronology and how best to time them for maximum insurance coverage. I have been pleasantly surprised by the team and will continue with them going forward.

Office staff has greatly improved! Appointment for a broken tooth was originally scheduled for Saturday, then was moved up twice as newer appointments became available! I was never in any pain so there was no hurry, but I appreciate the prompt updates so very much! Excellent service.

What a special, caring and compassionate crew. The doctor and Assistant went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and acknowledge my fear by asking how I was feeling throughout the visit!. First appointment and I went home feeling extremely good. Thank you all!!

I had six teeth filled on November 7, 2025. I'm very satisfied with the doctor. Five stars. However, the female assistant who assisted the doctor doesn't deserve even one star. She was extremely rude and seemed to enjoy the patient's suffering. She put all her weight on my shoulders, crushing me. As the doctor instructed, she put something in my mouth once, then told me to reach for the suction device and use it myself while I lay there waiting for the doctor. I didn't know how to use it, and lying down, I couldn't even tell where it was. Every time the assistant inserted and removed the device, it hit my teeth. She wouldn't even tell me to open my mouth and kept pushing. The doctor had to stop her. This was the worst dental assistant experience I've ever had.
