About Tide Dental Orthodontics & Dental Implants
Being in and out within the hour is common here, alongside Dr. Joel Khoo's prosthodontic work and Invisalign options.
Tide Dental Orthodontics & Dental Implants is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign and early orthodontic treatment alongside its broader services. Visits are often described as notably efficient, with reviews noting same-day appointments and being in and out in under an hour, a theme that comes up far more here than typical. Dr. Joel Khoo is regularly credited with explaining treatment plans clearly and handling prosthodontic work like bridges and crowns with care, and hygienists are frequently singled out by name for gentle cleanings. A few reviews mention billing disputes or confusion over insurance coverage.

Very professional staff. My first cleaning with Katie. She’s friendly and made my visit go by quickly.
Tide dental is the best. The staff is amazing shows a lot of compassion and makes you feel very comfortable. They walk you through every process before starting. Shanna and Dr. Khoo did an awesome job on my teeth. Definitely recommend!
My appointment was scheduled for 2:00 PM, and I arrived on time. As soon as I checked in, I was told I would need to reschedule for another day because they couldn’t see me. I was never called or notified in advance that my appointment would not be honored. A simple phone call would have saved me the trip and the inconvenience. Patients deserve to be informed when an office is unable to keep a scheduled appointment. This experience was very disappointing and showed a lack of respect for my time.
Well experience and professional. As for the staff, very polite with everyone that walk into their Establishment. I must say I was very impressed.
Best ever hands down, excellent communication friendly staff, and i might be weird but I like coming here getting my teeth clean lol glad I get 3 visits a year now instead of 2 hehe
