Tan C Huynh, DDS

Very clean office, the staff is professional, friendly! The go the extra mile for their patients and always explain benefits and coverage.
Dr. Tan is the best has been my dentist for 13 plus years I wouldn’t trust anyone else with mine and family teeth!

The dentist & staff have a very warm personality and make you feel comfortable. I procrastinated going to the dentist for years– scared of pain. Then dentist & staff have gentle hands. Fees are reasonable. They don’t charge for consultation, gave me a thorough examination.
I’ll be back in 2 weeks for a new bridge!

He is a very good dentist and his staff is phenomenal. Long story short, i went to another dental location for teeth cleaning, they had checked my teeth and gave me a price (with insurance) for 3 cavities that they said i had. Assuming that they may be right, i went to check with Dr. Huynh, who handled my wisdom teeth in the past, to make sure. With a thorough check, he said i only had one cavity which is not serious and the other ones, that the other dentist location said i had cavities, were just stains. With that said, Dr. Huynh is a honest man and only works on procedures that will benefit your teeth, he never pressures you to do a procedure you may not need. Key factor, he gives you the option to choose.
In regards to price, Dr. Huynh and his staff gave me a reasonable, out of pocket price, when i did not have insurance to cover for wisdom teeth. Now that i have dental insurance, which pays 70%, they have a policy that may cost me little to no cost for my future dental procedures.
BEST DENTIST IN WESTMINSTER!!! TRUST!

Best Dentist ever. I used to work for Dr. Tan and even though I work at another place, I still take my family to Dr. Tan. Very gentle, patient and caring staff and Dentist. They are all about patient quality and satisfaction. Never pushy about dental treatment. Only does what is your priority. BEST DENTIST EVER

Staff is awesome and very kind. Office is very clean! Dentists does a great job. I’ve had routine clean up, deep cleaning, wisdom tooth extraction done here and have had wonderful experiences. I’m a cash payer and the price is always reasonable. My fiancé comes here as well.
Their schedule is always packed, so unless you have a flexible schedule, i recommend making appointments in advance!
You know that awful drilling sound that everyone hates? Someone needs to invent headphones to drown that sound out! LOL

I’m sure like most people, I have a strange fear of dentists. The loud whirring of the dental tools almost always makes me cringe. However, after meeting with Dr. Tan Huynh and his staff, I immediately felt at ease. The sterile clean dental office and the exceedingly high level of professionalism are the two factors that keeps me coming back for years even though I live in San Diego! I would highly recommend TCH dental to anyone who needs dental service, whether it is a simple cleaning or for cosmetic dentistry!

This review is long overdue! I was in OC one day (years ago) enjoying a day of restaurant hopping with friends when I chipped a tooth. My sister mentioned TCH Dental & I gave them a call. When I mentioned my sister, they were able to squeeze me in right away. Dr. Tanh and his staff are very helpful & professional. They treat you like family As such, I now make the 1.5 hour trek twice a year, to come see him. With him, I know I’m always in great hands. Thank you again!!!

I have been going to this dentist for about 3 or so years now. The dentist and staff are very nice and professional.
I have had my routine cleanings, wisdom teeth out, a crown, some cavities and invisalign done here. Of course I am not going to comment that I loved having the work done because any and ALL dental work done anywhere feels HORRIBLE. No one LOVES having dental work done, no offense to any dentists.
However, one thing that was great about this office was that you didn’t have to wait long during your appointments to go in. Though I admit I usually try to make the first appointment available in the morning. Also if I made an appointment the day of, I would have to wait, but that is expected.
I have dental insurance and that has been working fine. I have referred my boyfriend, friends and family here that have insurance and some that do not. My friends who did not have insurance did call around and go to other offices to compare prices and found that this office usually had the best prices.
If you are scared to come here due to a review that was posted about quality and price, I am embarrassed to say that I may have referred them! I am unaware of the whole situation, but I can say that it is typical for any dentist to charge for X-​rays. I have yet to see a dentist advertise free consultation, free x-​rays, and free cleaning without any charges, no one wants to work for free. If you are worried about any extra fees, an estimate and list of the fees and costs for each service is usually written out before anything is done. I would assume in certain cases, some other things may come up and it would be discussed.
I recommend this place because I personally go here and have had no problems. Come in on your own and make your own opinions about the service. Just like anything else you must go and see for yourself.

If you care about quality, I do not recommend this dentist.
The service from this dentist and the receptionist was rushed and unprofessional.
My dad came in for a consultation on getting crowns and root canals. The dentist said he couldn’t provide a quote until we completed an X-​ray. The $ 60 X-​ray fee (which is paid upfront) would be credited if we proceeded with a service, which we did.
My dad ended up getting 3 root canals and 8 crowns and paid almost $ 6000. Included in this price is the uncredited X-​ray fee and an additional $ 100 when Tan C. Huynh grounded my dad’s tooth so harshly that he had to redo one of my dad’s tooth. A patient should not have to pay extra for Tan C. Huynh’s mistake.
We should not have had to pay $ 160 of the total amount. The receptionist said «Oh, we can just credit you $ 60 on your next visit.» Well, we never plan to come back for another service. My dad didn’t want to argue with them over this amount any further.
The dentist rushes everything and the actual sessions were poor quality. The amount owed is not a lot, but it’s a matter of principle.

I am scared to death when it comes to dental. Honestly, i would faint right on the chair while doing some stuff to my teeth. But not with TCH dental. Doctor Huynh is super nice and super calm, and that helps a lot because he shows me that he is very confident in what he’s doing, and I’ll be in a good hand. And that’s true, I’m no longer afraid going to his office to have my teeth business done anymore. One happy customer here!!!

i’m ashamed to admit that it took me awhile to return for a check up and cleaning. $ 50 for a thorough teeth cleaning + check up if you don’t have dental insurance. i’d recommend getting a set of x-​rays done too so they can see what’s «under the hood.» it was an additional $ 60, but preventative care ends up being cheaper than treating something if it’s undetected. DO IT!
as usual, i thoroughly enjoyed my visit here (as much as you could possibly enjoy hearing the scraping and picking noises on your teeth). the doctor is super gentle and none of it was painful, though there was minor discomfort that comes with the noise of the tartar getting scraped off your teeth. it’s a small price to pay for slippery smooth, slick teeth.
doctor and staff were all pleasant and friendly as usual. they all speak vietnamese and english fluently too. there was a woman who assisted him with the suctioning and such and she was ridiculously nice and gave me a good tip: a simple warm water + salt mixture is better than listerine to rinse your mouth.
left with my teeth feeling like… the day i got my braces off. few weeks later and my teeth still feel awesome. results are immediately visible and you get a little goody bag. i’ll definitely be back more regularly for my cleanings!

Dentist and his staffs are very nice and friendly. The office is very clean. I was afraid to take my 2 wisdom teeth out. The dentist was worry about the bottom one because it was close to my nerve. He explained about this case that I had to open my gum and broke that teeth. One hours later both tooth was came out. Thank you.

This is in response to the comment left by the dentist.
How can I be mistaken that I had my dental work else where? I had 4 cavities filled, 1 crown, and full deep cleaning back in sept 2012. I paid cash n partial credit card for the discounted price since it was 50 percent off regularly billed for insurance. I even have my receipt. My boyfriend charged part of the service on his credit card. Mai Linh referred me to you guys, when I was looking for an affordable dentist since I didn’t have insurance. My negative review is based on how you handled the situation after the crown was mounted back on. You shouldn’t have told me I might owe $ 40. It should have been free. It’s already an inconvenience for me to come back in to get the crown mounted back on. N if it was done correctly the crown wouldn’t have been loose. My sister has 4 crowns on for 15 years n nothing happen to her. Mines was only on for 2 years.
I don’t have any unanswered questions, my thought leaving the dentist table is why would you put a crown back on if I might need a root canal. I understand that the tooth may seem infected at the time n might go away n probably don’t need it. But it’s odd for me as a patient to think I might have to come back for a root canal on that same tooth when the doctor bonded the crown back on securely. And please don’t harrass me, I have the right to write a review in regards to my experience.

I’ve been a patient with Dr. Huynh for quite some time. He’s been nothing but amazing! i agree with all his other reviews. I’m not a big fan of the dentist but ever since i found Dr Huynh, nobody else can ever compare. First off I would like to thank his staff for always being so friendly! They genuinely really care about every patient that walks in and are always willing to negotiate. Service here is ALWAYS on point. They’re always following up with you along with reminding you when to get you teeth cleaned every 6 months. As for Dr. Huynh, he’s always been gentle with me. I recently took out two of my wisdom teeth and I did not feel a thing. Few weeks later everything healed perfectly fine. Dr. Huynh is reliable and will always make his patients such as myself feel as comfortable as possible. He’s also very well educated and always know what’s best. I can really rely on him and his staff. Thank god I found a dentist who really cares and is super clean along with friendly genuine staff :)

The office doesn’t look appealing from the outside but its super clean and modern inside! Sophie was who I talked to on the phone about a consultation to remove my wisdom teeth and she also was the technician that did my x-​rays. the X-​rays were done quick (10 – 15 min) and as painless as those teeth X-​rays can be. I then waited for Dr. Huynh to go over my X-​rays.
My consult with Dr. Huynh was quick and fast similar to my wisdom teeth removal.
It was the aftermath of it all that made me really second guess my decision. I woke up from my nap with the novocaine out of my system in immense pain.
I figured I would experience discomfort but my level of pain was really bad for the first day. I had hope with the pain relievers I was given that maybe the next day would be better but it wasn’t.
I became a bit worried and came back to Dr. Huynh to see if he could figure out what was wrong. Turns out I somehow had an infection and it was causing my fever and pain. I was given a prescription for a stronger pain killer and fever reducer.
A little over a week I was back to normal but because of that entire aftermath I don’t think I will be going back to get my other wisdom tooth removed or be referring any of my friends or family. Maybe my particular incident doesn’t happen often or maybe my body reacted badly but regardless I wouldn’t want to have someone else experience what I had to experience.
Yes, he is the cheapest doctor around (especially at the time when I didnt have health insurance) and his staff is super sweet but I guess you get what you pay for… :(

I am scared to death of the dentist and had major pain in my face. I went to this dentist for the first time today and I will be happy to come back here anytime!!! The staff was so nice, accomodated my pain and got me intoday… a Saturday right before Christmas!
Everything in the office is hi-​tech and they are very honest. This dentist could have told me I needed thousands of dollars worth of work but examined me for a long time and then told me that maybe I had a sinus infection and that was causing the tooth pain. Wrote me a script for a Zpak, gave me some mild meds for the pain and sent me on my way. HONEST and professional. I am going to send my whole family here now.
He does not jump in between patients and you dont feel like you are cattle being pushed through the office.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST and PROFESSIONAL! Great experience here!

I am the type of person that has a cynical view of the dentist, especially the vietnamese ones… But that’s before I went to this place! My boyfriend recommended me and it was the best decision I’ve ever made by switching over.
The place is clean and very modern/​high tech. They have everything on computers and you can see your X-​rays and such on the screens. Overall great experience with the doctor and assistants. Didn’t experience any pain while cleaning my teeth.

I love coming here! I don’t have health insurance which makes getting sick or having medical/​dental issues a problem because I have to pay out of pocket. I first came into contact with Dr. Huynh when I got my wisdom teeth removed. It was such a good deal at $ 400 for two of my wisdom teeth and he was gentle as could be considering that he had to cut through the gums to pull those suckers out. I would recommend this office to everyone. I love this place because Dr. Huynh is so trustworthy. You don’t have to worry about being ripped off or an unreasonable price. I went to another dentist (Bright Now in Fountain Valley) and they kept trying to push sales and made me feel really uncomfortable. There is none of that here. You can always be guaranteed great service as well. The secretary/​office manager is the sweetest lady and is my favorite person. I love coming to this office just so I can see her and talk to her!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I used to be scared of the dentist. Used to be. My previous experiences with dentists were always scary and left a mark on me for the longest time. I had one dentist that yelled at her assistant while I was sedated on her dental chair — and the assistant walked out on her.
Anyway, my view of dentists changed when I started going to see Dr. Huynh at TCH Dental. He is a very patient, understanding and skilled dentist. He speaks to you using normal terms not dental terms and ensures that you understand a procedure before he goes forward with it.
A lot of dentists want you in and out so they can help the next patient and help their bottom dollar. Dr. Huynh takes his time — one major example that comes to mind was a few months ago when I wanted to get a crown, and was on a tight work schedule, he actually suggested that I call him when my schedule was more open — as he doesn’t like to rush through his work. That’s a mark of a dentist that cares more about quality than his bottom dollar.
Luckily I have PPO insurance, since TCH isn’t in my dental network, but from my experience with other dentists that are in my network, Dr. Huynh definitely ranks far above all of them. His office staff — Mai and Sophie are very friendly and will always try to work with your insurance first before resorting to other payment options (cash). Their pricing is upfront and so you know what you’ll be paying before you start the procedure. They always call ahead of time to confirm your appts which is nice.
Parking is a pain sometimes but you can park in front of the massage parlor if needed (I haven’t been towed yet — *knocks on wood*).
Awesome dentist! Waited a whole year to write this review because I wanted to see how he was over time not over one visit.

If you know me well enough, you’ll know how much I hate the dentist. I cry on the way there, tear up at the chair and ask them to always be gentle. I’ve didn’t have a pleasant experience last year, so after consulting a few friends, I was directed here.
Don’t let the location fool you. It’s so clean once you walk in. Everyone in here is super pleasant and very helpful. The dental hygienists are so gentle, too!
Dr. Huynh was really nice and expressed interest about who I was. I got my full x-​ray, cleaning, and fillings here. He cleaned my teeth carefully and by himself and I was so impressed because I didn’t bleed much. Other dentists have cut me before, but Dr. Huynh was SUPER gentle. When I was getting my fillings, he told me it may pinch a nerve. He painlessly gave me Novocaine. Very hospitable and very nice.
When you leave, they give you toothbrush, toothpaste, and a flossing kit. SO cool! It’s better than candy! LOL
