Stan Chien, DDS

Dr. Chien and his team are absolutely wonderful, everyone is very helpful and informative, and they’re really great at making you feel comfortable. They’re great about working with your schedule and budget, which is a big plus for me. I’d highly recommend him to anyone!

Have been going to Dr Stan Chien for many many years now. He’s got excellent bedside manner as well as being a skilled, thorough and professional dentist. It’s very difficult to find any doctor with that combination! He’s always friendly and caring. The office is clean, modern and comfortable as well.

Dr stan his helpful staff and hygienist are a pleasure to work with.
I started with Dr stan for my routine cleaning and root canal etc.
In all of this the dr and his office have a very patient centric approach and take time explaining the small details regarding my teeth and have helped to gently imbibe good dental practices to keep my teeth healthy.
Defntly recommend Dr. stan as your dentist.
Will update more once my tooth crowning experience is done.

Excellent service and patient follow-​up. Glad I was able to find a good dentist /​hygienist nearby. The hygienist is very nice and takes the time to educate you.
Easy to make an appointment, and I had a very short wait time before being seen.

I recently saw Dr. Chien for a second opinion. He and his staff were extremely friendly and very thorough. I knew exactly what was going on and never sat alone in the exam room for more than 30 seconds. He was very open and candid about my situation and made me feel important and valued. He answered every question I had, never rushed me and is allowing me to make my own decisions rather than providing a diagnosis as if it was a matter of fact. This is the way that dental care and healthcare, for that matter, should be executed. Having been to larger commercial dental groups, I prefer the attentive care I received at Dr. Chien’s office.

Friendly and professional service is what you can expect. They do not try and «sell you extra» which I have experienced in other offices. Highly recommended…

I visited for a free consultation that turned into an ongoing disaster.
Issue #1: I visited due to a 1800 dentist referral that said Dr. Chien was open on Saturday. I showed up, and he was not open.
I re-​secheduled.
Issue #2: Inexperienced staff. Even though I was the only patient, I stilled waited 20 minutes. The assistant didn’t know how to use the xray program and tried for another 15 mins. She eventually had to ask Dr. Chien to do them. Dr. Chien then dictated to his assistant and he had to SPELL the words out for her. Red flag.
Issue #3: Dr. Chien recommended I get 2 crowns as well as 4 fillings for some issues in my xray. This is not a problem per se, but I got 2 other opinions that I definitely did not need crowns. Not only did I not need the services recommended, I brought my treatment plan from Dr. Chien to the other dentist and they laughed, saying some of the treatment plan didn’t make sense.
Issue #4: This supposed one time «free» consultation was a SCAM. They charged my insurance company thousands of dollars, claimed I received two crowns. So when I went to another dentist a week later, my insurance denied my claim because I was maxed out by Dr. Chien! This is unacceptable. I work full time and luckily my new dentist submitted all the forms and evidence to my insurance proving I did not receive any treatment from Dr. Chien. But this took several months.
I hate to blasts someone’s business, but there wasn’t one redeemable aspect of my visit. Office hours were unreliable, staff was inexperienced, treatment was questionable, and billing/​insurance was a disaster for something that should have been free.

Dr. Chien was my dentist while I was living in California. He is friendly, kind, and professional. My wife and I were very fortunate to have known him and his wonderful staff. The only downside to having such a great dentist is trying to find someone as good as him now that I’ve moved!

I feel truly blessed to have Doctor Stan Chien as my dentist. He is a very positive and competent person. I had a hard time when I was looking for a dentist when I came to Orange County and was referred to Dr. Chien through Dr. Nooshin Ghayoumi who spoke most highly of him.
I wanted a second opinion and I was very happy with what he told me that was a year ago now.
All the staff are great. I cannot remember everyone’s name but I appreciate Sarah, Monica, Carrie, and Angelica among others. He uses the latest equipment including digital X-​rays, and often does not charge for dental procedures. He believes in the best dental care which means you may find someone that is less expensive but they will not be as good.
He accepts all regular insurances and is very reasonable about pricing for people without insurance. He is very ethical in his referrals and knows how to make people relax.
He has moved into a new office which is very modern. If you are afraid of going to the dentist, go to Dr. Stan Chien.

I’ve been coming to Dr. Chien for several years now, him and his staff are all fantastic! When I first moved to Orange County, I found Dr. Chien from a web search through my insurance company, I picked him because he graduated from USC, my alma mater, keeping it in the Trojan family! First thing I noticed during my first appointment was his diploma on the wall with a B.S. in BME, my major! what gives? I knew I picked the right dentist at that moment, we even had a few of the same professors!
Unlike other dentists I’ve had where the hygienist does all the cleaning and you never even see the doctor, Dr. Chien always spends time with each of his patients and actually checks your teeth himself. I’ve always know I grind my teeth, but dentists before never suggested night guards to me. Dr. Chien got me fitted for a night guard right away, I’ve already ground through 2 of them, it’s shocking to see the damage I’ve been doing to my teeth before the night guard!
When there are fees not covered by insurance, they will go over the finances very clearly with you so you know exactly what you’re being charges, and it’s all legit. When I needed my wisdom teeth removed, Dr. Chien couldn’t do it himself and had to refer me to a surgeon, Dr. Vaughan, who was also excellent. Good dentists know other good dentists!
Nobody enjoys going to the dentist, but Dr. Chien and his wonderful staff really makes the experience enjoyable.

Dr. Chien and Angelica, my hygienist are amazing! I will never go to another dentist. They have a beautiful office and beautiful smiles!

I hate going to the dentist. Period.
However, Dr. Chien is the best dentist I have ever had! He explains everything to you in detail, is very honest, and gives great advice. He even gives you a call to check on everything, a day after you go in for something big like a tooth ache, crown, etc. That really impressed me since my previous dentists never did that! His staff members are friendly, the office is always clean, and they have nice high-​tech equipment.
My advice is: if they tell you to floss more, do it. If you need to wear a night guard, do it. If they tell you to come in for cleanings every 4 months instead of 6, do it. They really are trying to help you improve your dental health, and you can avoid making even more trips to the dentist each year! I would definitely recommend Dr. Chien to everyone!
