    The Auburn clinic is a new building and has brand new equipment. It seems so comfortable, so zen, so spacious, feel like being at home. Dr. Nguyen took his time with every patient and very efficient at it, you don't notice that they left you alone at any time. The staff always has a genuine smile. We go a bit further for the Auburn clinic, though the Tacoma clinic has the same welcoming staff.

  • I have been there three times and each time they have been awesome! I worked with both the husband and wife and both interactions they took their time to explain what they were doing.

    thumb JACKSD

    I really am starting to love this place the staff and my dentist make it feel like home. But I can only stay for another 6 months and I turn 21 which means I can't come anymore. which makes me sad because I really loved getting to know this place and how much the emphasize good dental hygiene has made me take flossing serious. I really going to miss this place!

  • My entire family has been attending Excellent Dental Care for over 10+ years, ever since I was a child, so EDC has been a household staple for us and our extended family. We've had several family members get braces at EDC, with absolutely excellent results. They're extremely efficient, professional and provide service in multiple languages to ensure accessibility. The staff is always so welcoming and we love going there for our semi-annual check ups. Thank you all for your years of service that you have provided and will continue to provide for our family! I highly recommend.

    We’ve been to a lot of dentists and always had problems in the past. The dentists here are AMAZING. They have all the latest equipment, very knowledgeable, and affordable. The staff is also very knowledgeable (especially Lynn) and very helpful and sincere about their clients. We highly recommend Excellent Dental Care to everyone.

  • Great staff. Great work. Certainly not racist. All peoples receive good care at this clinic. The staff speaks multiple languages. How can they be racist?

    thumb Green Moss Monk

  • Have been going to this dental care for four years now and it is the best! Been to a couple other dental care places were they would hurt me or do filling poorly but the excellent dental center is by far the best dental care! They are very gental and sweet. Highly recommend this dental care ?

    After not going to the dentist for years, I had several things that needed attention. I randomly located Excellent Dental Care and so thankful I did. They have addressed all my issues and have been very efficient fixing them. Not only are they detailed, but strive for perfection for the health of your smile. I’ve always felt welcomed and treated with fantastic customer service. I will always recommend Excellent Dental Care. I do not plan to go anywhere else for my care.

  • We entrust the dental care of my family to them, they are good at what they do. Two of my kids have braces through them,explains the process well, very thorough, it’s not just aligning the teeth but the TMJ as well, Dr.Thai knows what he is doing.

    thumb JDC Dcruz

    Friendly, professional and thorough! Audrey Nguyen is a great dentist.

    thumb Roman Druzdzel
  • I have had 70 years experience with dentistry both as a patient and as a chair side assistant. Most recently I visited Dr Audrey Nguyen DDS. She is the best dentist I have had the pleasure of visiting. She is so gentle and cares deeply about the comfort of her patients. She takes time to discuss cares, concerns and treatment options. A big concern for most people is having to wait endlessly for their appointments...NEVER with Dr Nguyen. She respects her patient's time. I have been seated right after check in at the front desk. The office staff is friendly and professional. The office and the treatment areas are always very clean and well organized. I highly recommend Excellent Dental care for all your dental needs for any age. Thank you.

    thumb Tracey A Meyer

    Awesome place to go...my past dentist moved his practice out of state some years ago and I bounced around place to place trying to find a good dentist when we gave Excellent Dental a try. It's been almost four years at this office now and we love it. Friendly staff, great care and service. Audrey and Thai are the absolute best! You will not be disappointed 🙂

    thumb priscilla brager
  • They give a step by step of what they are doing so if at any point you dont want a particular service you dont need to end up paying for it, but they give the options. Friendly and personable. Only been twice so far but will be going back, especially as they are open one Saturday a month which is helpful with my work schedule

    thumb mariah ottersen

    These dental offices are excellent indeed! Dentists are conscientious, kind and knowledgeable. Staff are nice, friendly...there are television sets at each chair. Offices are clean,roomy, well-decorated! These offices get lots of patients/patrons....I highly recommend these offices!

  • My family and I have come to Excellent Dental Care (EDC) at both Tacoma and Auburn locations for the last 10 years. My sister and I had braces done by Dr. Thai. He did a very great job. The good part is we did not have to take any teeth out as we were told by others. Also, the staff is very friendly. They always make you feel comfortable. I highly recommend EDC for the dental care.

    thumb ANGEL SALGADO

    When you walk through the doors, someone is always there greeting you with a hello and a warm smile. I have had braces for about 3 1/2 years now and, I’m almost done! None of my permanent teeth were pulled out during this process. They also respected all the things I wanted and didn’t want to happen to my teeth for braces. Excellent Dental Care have very generous and caring people. Excellent hard workers to have a conversation with as well. I highly recommend going to their dental office, especially if you’re planning to get braces. Braces might hurt and get in a way of eating your favorite foods but, they’re definitely worth it!
