Holistic Dentistry

My previous dentist performed an exam and X-ray but found no clear issue, yet they still recommended a root canal as my only option.

I'm so glad I sought another perspective! Dr. Chang and his team took the time to perform a thorough exam, including a cone beam CT scan, and they identified two small ‘wear and tear’ spots that were the real cause of my pain. Instead of an unnecessary root canal, they simply filled those areas—resolving my discomfort without an invasive procedure.

Not only that, but Dr. Chang carefully reviewed the entire scan with me and even caught a developing cavity that would have caused issues in just a few weeks. Thanks to his attention to detail, I was able to address it early and prevent further complications.

The team here is professional, detail-oriented, and truly focused on finding the right solution rather than defaulting to aggressive treatments. I really appreciate their patient-centered approach, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful and thorough dentist!

It was a very in-depth appointment, and you can tell the staff really cares for their patients. I also have a cold sensitivity, and during the cleaning, they used warm water. I will be switching my whole family over to them.

After x-rays of the root of the tooth and a CT scan to check out a previous root canal on a different tooth (prior to knowing how bad they are), he gave me the pros and cons.  He doesn't like root canals but does recommend them in certain situations.  I didn't realize that there are some major cons to extractions.

He fully explained my tooth situation using the x-rays and CT scan, giving me time to process and ask all questions I could come up with.  He did not press me to get work done with his office.  He was friendly and pleasant, as was his assistant and front office staff.  This was my first time using a holistic dentist, and I was thoroughly impressed with Dr. Chang and his entire office.

I had some issues with past dental work, specifically the way old crowns were created. He fixed those issues, and my teeth and health are doing so much better. His team also has a lot of information about the best holistic dental practices, which are based on science and actually work. I'm also super happy with Stephanie as my dental hygienist. In every other dentist's office, I've always had issues with them being too rough during my cleaning, then judging me for the fact that my gums bled due to their rough treatment. Stephanie is very gentle but thorough, and quite a delight to talk to as well. Overall I've had nothing but positive experiences here, and I would highly recommend them to everyone.
