Andrew W Chin DDS

This post is LONG overdue. Dr Chin has been my dentist for over 15+ years. I moved to the bay to be with my husband about 15 years ago and I still have family in LA.
Luckily for me, I have pretty good oral hygiene so the need to see him for more than twice a year hasn’t been necessary.
He is extremely patient and knowledgable
In his line of work. He’s got the work ethics of a modern dentistry but has good work ethics. He carefully articulates what he will do and puts you at ease before he does it. For as long as I can handle it, he will be my dentist for life. If you don’t feel that strong about your dentist, it is time try a new one

I love getting my teeth cleaned here. Dr. Chin is really nice and gentle. The staff there is nice and friendly too. They take their time with you. Dr. Chin see’s you right at your appointment time. I enjoy chatting with the front office lady. I love this place!

I never felt compelled to write a review for a dental office before but in this case, I feel I must pass the good word along. I’ve been to many dentists over the years and it was always a quick in-​and-​out. That is, the dentist would just do his/​her job, and I was on my way. I was never consulted on how to upkeep my teeth or made aware of the aging of my crown. My first visit with Dr. Chin (or you can call him Andrew because he’s hip like that) made me feel like he actually cared about my dental hygiene! In addition, he did a superb job cleaning my teeth and riding of the tar (yes, I’m a smoker) making it feel silky smooth! This personable experience has gone beyond any expectation I’ve ever had and now I want to look for a family doctor that would make me feel as comfortable as my dentist, Andrew, did. I’m always going to dislike going to the dental office because of the sound of the drill, but at least now the experience can be somewhat pleasant because I feel comfortable with the person working on my teeth. If you’re reading this, give this place a try. I’m sure you’ll find a new-​found appreciation just as I did!

Recently switched over to Dr. Chin and I am happy I did. From my first consultation, I felt that he genuinely cared about my dental health. My deep and routine cleans were very thorough, while also being quick and painless. After each clean I’ve walked away feeling, «wow, my teeth feel so clean».
Besides being a really good dentist, Dr. Chin is just an over all cool dude. I was able to talk sports and stuff with him.
I would recommend Dr Chin to anyone looking to switch!

Dr. Chin is a great doctor. He is very professional and has been taking care of my dental health for years. His partners are just as great. The officer clerks are very courteous and helpful when I have questions. They are also always on time with my appointment. Aside from their business, they are also very active with the community where the dentists volunteer at the local community colleges. Some of the dentists here also have gone on missions to 3^rd world countries and helped provide dental care to hundreds of underprivileged children and adults.
Highly recommend this office!

Fraud dentist — Went to dentist 1^st time patient. I request dental exam & teeth cleaning which is covered by insurance. I was told I needed cleaning bacteria rinse which is not cover by insurance so I paid out of pocket. Also I was. Told I had 2 cavities & a cracked tooth. & they only provide white fillings which my insurance don’t cover. Total cost would would be 725.00 out of pocket even if I have insurance. I decided to get a second opinion. The other dentist advised nothing wrong with my teeth I don’t have a cracked tooth or any cavities & didn’t needed the extensive cleaning they charged me for. I went back advised them of my findings. They advised they were not billing my insurance. But still charged me 95.00 for teeth cleaning. My insurance is running an investigation for fraud. Advising patients they need treatments & charging them when they don’t.
