I’m still sort of new to the area and have only seen Dr. Wong twice, but after my most recent experience I just wanted to say thanks by leaving a great review for him.
I heard about Dr. Wong from a co-​worker in the area when I was having some pain about a year ago. My co-​worker told me that she had been going to Dr. Wong for many years and was always pleased with her care. I made an appointment and found the office staff to be friendly and Dr. Wong really knew his stuff. I didn’t bring any of my old dental records with me so he did a pretty thorough checkup on me, x-​rays, etc. and found a few problem areas that needed some attention. Additionally he found the source of my growing pain. I had some questions and Dr. Wong did an excellent job explaining everything to me. I could tell I was in good hands. He came up with several treatment plans/​potential options, and I decided to try a temporary fix for the issue.
He explained that it might help for awhile but I’d probably need to come back and see him sooner or later if/​when the pain came back. He estimated that might be in about 8 months to a year. Well true to his word about 10 months later I noticed the same pain and gave his office a call after a few days. I came back in and he not only remembered exactly what we had talked about before, he picked up right where we left off. This time I was ready for the permanent fix and so that’s what he did. The pain is gone, my back teeth feel great, and most importantly. during the whole procedure Dr. Wong was an absolute master. I felt minimal pain/​discomfort and because he knew what he was doing I healed pretty quickly following my treatment. Absolutely top notch!

I’ve been going since I was a kid and lived in the area, but after a recent tooth emergency struck in center city Philadelphia — I’m more appreciative/​devoted/​amazed by Dr. Wong than ever before.
Out of the blue one night in the summer, there was an intense pain in my mouth that woke me up from sleep. Since it came from nowhere, I tried to live with it for a day or two to see if it would as mysteriously go away. The pain was terrible — couldn’t think, couldn’t sleep, couldn’t be helped with OTC painkillers. It got to the point that I literally just wanted all suspect teeth to be ripped out of my mouth.
Even though Dr. Wong has been my life-​long dentist, out of desperation I went to a very reputable, Philadelphia-​based dentist. While there, they examined my teeth, did X-​rays, and told me the problem was from grinding my teeth at night. The solution? Take Tylenol, and come back for a night-​guard. This didn’t feel like a plausible explanation, and the pain was only getting worse. This was not the time to try someone new — this was the time to go to my tried-​and-​true expert.
Dr. Wong was able to squeeze me in as an emergency, and when he looked at my X-​rays, there was a tiny shadow that was missed by the other office — but thanks to Dr. Wong’s incredible experience and knowledge, he was able to figure out that what I really needed was a root canal! It was not a fun experience, but I was so thankful for an accurate diagnosis, and the immediate pain relief it brought!
Dr. Wong is everything you’d want your dentist to be; gentle, kind, thorough, and EXTREMELY knowledgeable about everything tooth related. (His staff is wonderful too. :)) After my last foray, I will never stray again: Pavilion Dental for life!
