Dennis Chen, DDS, MS

Recently I’ve got teeth-​implanted by Dr. Dennis Chen in his office located in Cupertino. Honestly, I did feel pretty nervous prior to getting the scheduled implant surgery. However, it was not necessary to worry about it so much, because the surgery was conducted perfect without painfulness as thought. That is why I would like to tell YOU guys something about Dr. Dennis Chen: He is a highly reliable dentist with well-​known expertise in the field as well as excellent skill in implant technology. Moreover, Dr. Chen’s team is also awesome. YOU will get a very kind post-​surgery care, and will be always warmly welcomed anytime by Dr. Chen’s front-​desk staff like Kay Phan, Mary Nguyen and Windy Chan. YOU would be never disappointed if YOU select Dr. Dennis Chen to have your teeth cared.

I think it is not very ethical doctor, though.
I was referred to him for consultation and he moved on to exam my teeth to extract more fees either from the insurance or me. Certainly, my insurance won’t pay for the re-​exam since my dentist just checked on it and billed the insurance. So I ended up have to pay for the unneeded re-​exam fee by myself. It was back then 10 years ago and there was no Unilocal to put feedback. Now I have the chance. Ever since I stay away from this office.

I had to go in for a crown lengthening on the farthest back molar on the top right-​hand side. It was a very difficult area to reach, and with my sensitive gag reflex, I didn’t envy the doctor’s task.
After being made comfortable, the staff went through a process of sanitizing my face for the procedure — they were cutting into gum tissue and bone after all, so it was nice that being sanitary was their first priority. My face was washed with iodine, and I was given a q-​tip to scratch any itches on my face post sterilization. After they shot the top of my mouth full of sweet, sweet novocain, they gave me some magazines to read while it took hold and killed any sensation in that part of my mouth.
I normally listen to music during procedures, and I prefer Smashing Pumpkins because the sound of dental drills go well with Billy Corgan’s voice. I didn’t even make it to my favorite song on the album Siamese Dream, «Soma,» because the doctor was so efficient with his time. The hole in my mouth was stitched up, cleaned, and they gave me some motrin and an ice pack for the pain. They then called ahead to my Kaiser pharmacy so the amoxicillin and the mouthwash would be waiting for me!
Getting the amoxicillin, I thought everything would be great. Turns out the amoxicillin killed off the good bacteria in my body and gave me a severe bacterial infection. When I told Dr. Chen this at my follow-​up appointment — everything is healing great! — he apologized profusely for inadvertently giving me violent diarrhea. That kind of kindness is sorely lacking in the medical community. I’d recommend Dr. Chen for any dental surgery you may need!

i’ve been coming here for dental cleaning for the past 15 years or so. they do a thorough good job, and the office is always very clean and hyper-​hygienic. i feel safe and well cared for coming here knowing Dr. Chen demand things to be very clean and hygienic to avoid any contamination or infection.
I pay for my cleaning out of pocket. the charge has been the same for 15 years. i feel that the fee for the great cleaning is a good value.
they also do a good job teaching you how to floss and brush correctly to clean without hurting your gum. i learned it here unlike what i’ve learned before. totally recommend this office.

Dr. Chen was referred by my general dentist few years ago. Their staff are always friendly, specially Kay (office manager). The office is clean and professional. Dr. Chen is always courteous, patient and knowledgeable.
But what I care the most is the implant skill and quality. I have three implants done over the few years. So far so good.

I got 2 gum graft surgeries done at Dr. Chen’s office to prevent/​treat further gingival recession. The first one was performed at the end of May and the other one early October this year. I was VERY impressed by the results and the amount of care I received in both cases! Both procedures took a little more than 1 hour, and I was able to drive home right after with a cute little kit (advil, antiseptic solutions, and detailed post-​surgerical instructions about proper dental care and what to expect!) The nurse was even kind enough to call my desired pharmacy so that I can pick up my oral rinse solution and antibiotics on my way home! From the consultation to the follow-​up visits and even follow-​up telephone call, I received SUPERIOR care. Both the staff and Dr. Chen are extremely courteous, patient, helpful, knowledgeable, and understanding! The whole office and equipment are all very clean and well-​maintained! I would highly recommend Dr. Chen to everyone and anyone! I couldn’t have asked for better customer care and service. :)

I went to many different consultants for an implant but i felt most comfortable with Dr. Chen’s office. l had gum disease and I had boneloss, which is why I lost my tooth so I had to get a surgery implant a tooth replacement. After the implant was done, I felt a lot more confident when I smile and when I eat now– thanks to Dr. Chen’s skill and practice. You can tell he was very careful about it– not brisk and rough like other dentists. I can tell he was very experienced and knew completely what he was doing

A very, very friendly staff– they know what they are doing and they bring a warm environment for such a scary situation.

Friendly staff and great dental work that was pain free. I came in for an appointment and my procedure was explained clearly by Dr. Chen.
My teeth and gums have not been better and I was pain/​bleeding free after the visit (I have gums that frequently bleed and swell). For this reason, I am usually not fond of going to the dentist, but Dr. Chen and his staff made my trip convenient and hassle-​free. I am now a repeat patient after trying out many different dentists in the area.
The office is clean, well run, and the dentists are highly knowledgeable. I recommend this office highly.

I have been going to this dental office for years for dental cleanings. Before Dr. Chen, I had gone to several different offices, but felt like a piece of the machine in the other places. I felt like other offices try to get me in and out for a turnover. But not at Dr. Chen’s office. At Dr. Chen’s office, the staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and gentle. They are very aware if they hit a sensitive spot in my mouth and take a lot of time with my cleanings. The reception is extremely friendly and I always feel very welcome going in. The atmosphere is very comfortable and I never feel hurried.
I will continue to be a patient of Dr. Chen’s office as he is extremely skilled at what he does and employs staff of similar caliber.

Horrible experience, they lied to me about the insurance that they accept and I ended up footing the entire bill because my insurance company refused to pay since they weren’t on the list. I was also told that they are over charging for the exam that was preformed.
I also got 2 and 3^rd opinions from other respected periodontists who charged much less and that the quote I was given was outrageously high.
When I went to get a copy of my records, the receptionist completely lied to me saying that they were not allowed to give them out. I had to wave down another employee that was walking to have her tell the receptionist give me a copy of my own records.
I created an account just to make sure no one else ever makes the mistake of going to this place.
