Testimonials

I had Dental implants placed about 10 years ago. It was the BEST experience I could have had! I needed bone graphs before the actual process could even start. So having multiple surgeries can be scary!But him and his staff were OITSTANDING the entire process! I have 2 dental implants right up front and people can't tell at all. Dr. Oakley gave me the confidence I never had from never having the adult teeth come in. It was an experience that truely changed my life for the better

I took my mother there today and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences I've had. Not only did they do a fantastic and professional job, they were very kind. I had a lot of concerns since my mother is handicap due to brain cancer but all worries where washed away as soon as the staff stepped up to help without question. They were very kind about the whole situation. Dr.chun was the doctor who helped us and he was very thorough with everything. The dental assistant Jessica went out of her way to make my mom feel comfortable. They cried with us (literally) while going over my moms recent diagnosis of brain cancer, they laughed with us,they were encouraging and they truly felt everything with their entire hearts. They took good care of my mom, no issues at all. Dr.chun was very honest about the situation with my mother's implant, he didn't lie or manipulate, he was upfront about it but he still wanted to do his very best and he was able to get it resolved. Jessica stayed with my mom and I to not only do her job (which she did fantastically) she also did it because she could see my mom was afraid. Not once did she leave her side. She comforted and talked with her. She was professional but caring which is the perfect mix. She made sure my mom was comfortable at all times, offer pillows for her etc. It went from me being a nervous wreck (its not easy getting my handicap mom out and about,let alone a dentist appointment) from instantly feeling relieved. I highly recommend dr.chun and I would absolutely suggest requesting Jessica and I promise you, you won't regret it. Best personalities, great work,and most importantly, they truly and honestly care about the patients.
