What Our Patients Say

Dr Jang is very competent and I would recommend him to anyone who asked me about him. I’ve gone to this office for over 50 years (3 dentists ) and am still willing to drive across town for my dental work.

Margo

I had a fuss-free filling done by Dr. Kenneth, and last minute I asked for a polish, and without question he fulfilled my request. I felt valued as a customer and was satisfied with my services. Highly recommend!

Laura

I’ve been going to this dentist office for about 50 years!!! I’ve always had a great experience there!!

Susan

This is the second time I've had dental work here and both were some of the best dental work I've had done. Friendly, fair prices, and very well qualified. The first visit was an amazing relief of pain and was a fixed in a quick and painless way.

Leonard

I’ve been going here for 30 years. Staff is competent, thorough and friendly. The office is 5 minutes from home. There is no reason to go elsewhere for my dental needs.
