Kristine Chong, DDS

Even though Dr. Chong is no longer here, I still love this place. Dr. Reyes is sweet and knowledgable. She has worked at Oakland children’s hospital and knows how to work with children with special needs. This makes me feel at ease since one of my sons happens to have a rare skin disorder and she is knowledgable on it!

Dr. Kristine Chong is by far the BEST pediatric dentist we have ever known and we miss her dearly (we moved and after reading a prior post I am not sure if she is even there) My son went to her for years and we have yet to find anyone at her skill level and patience! Our son has sensitivity to light and he won’t even sit still in a chair, but with her… she was able to get him to sit there and tolerate cleanings, checkups and even cavity fillings and caps. I could not believe the change I saw before my eyes. She is AMAZING with kids and knows theirs needs and how to accommodate them! Sunglasses and all… she got my kid to enjoy the dentist to this day! Thank you Dr. Chong!!!

I just found out today that Dr. Chong is no longer returning to work. I felt disappointed as she has been very kind, gentle and skilled with my 2 sons. My 2 yr old at that time, who usually cries when I brush his teeth, never cried when under her care. I will miss Dr. Chong and esp my kids. I don’t know how we will find a pediactric dentist as great as her.

I was terrified to bring my daughter in for the extensive dental work that her first pediatric dentist had recomended and was pushed away by their office when I refused to do anesthesia for her fillings.
I found Kristine Chong here on Unilocal and am so glad that I went to her office for a second opinion. She was very informative and made my five year old daughter feel very comfortable.
My daughter just recieved three fillings today without the anesthesia as recomended elsewhere, and she didn’t cry once. Dr. Chong really knew how to get my daughter excited about the entire process and my daughter was never even aware that she recieved a shot to numb her mouth. I’m so happy that we came here. My daughter can’t wait to go back for her next visit.

Dr Chong does not have good option for treating kids, she is just like a general dentist. Dr Chong charged more than $ 300 just for consultation, and her estimate is outragous. I regret taking my kid to see Dr Chong.

I am a heavy Unilocal user but never posted any reviews and I am going to register Unilocal today just for Dr. Chong.
I want to thank Dr Chong for her help to extracted 3 of my daugther’s front teeth before Xmas, the process went so smoothly, far better then I expected. My daugther didn’t compliant about the pain at all because she enjoys the movie and the «happy gas» during the extraction process… and of course, the gift from tooth fairy…
I totally agree with the other reviewers that her office is very clean, neat and kid-​oriented. My daugther is shy at new place and new people too, and she feels very comfortable there. We already referred few kids there.
Thanks…

I am very impressed with Dr Chong and her staff. Her office is very clean, neat and kid-​oriented. My son, who is usually very shy at new place and new people, feels right at home right away. He gets to pick which movie he wants to watch during the checkup. He gets to pick which new toothbrush he wants. And afterwards, when the checkup is done, he gets to pick 2 toys from the toy bin.
Love it. I highly recommend Dr Chong!!!

Our appointment was originally scheduled for Tuesday, but during the day I received a call that it would have to be rescheduled for Wednesay. When I went to pick up my kids and told them they weren’t going to the dentist until the next day, they were so sad. They said, «But I want to go to the dentist. I want to see Dr. Chong.» That’s a testament to Dr. Chong’s ability to interact and involve the kids.
