Reviews often describe gentle handling for anxious patients and staff who walk through x-rays and treatment options before starting care.

Orthodontic care in reviews

Once again I am VERY happy with the care I received at Bright Now Dental! As with my first visit everyone was nice, caring and considerate. They have my trust & confidence. My second procedure went very well. Doctor Duong was as friendly, efficient and overall as great as my first visit. I will be returning in a week for additional work. Many thanks again to all the staff there for another great experience! Michael

Worst place. You can never get an appointment. My son has been wearing braces for years with no improvement. They constantly say there are no appointments available, and even when we manage to book one, it sometimes gets canceled. There is little to no proper cleaning or consistent follow-up care. After all these years, I expected to see significant progress, but unfortunately, we haven’t. It feels like they care more about collecting money than providing quality orthodontic care and making sure patients actually improve. The service has been extremely frustrating and disappointing. I would not recommend this place.

This place sucks. All the staff treat you like a test dummy, and if you dodnt have insurance, it would literally be like 20000 dollars for braces

Understaffed which I understand is not directly their problem, but I waited over an hour past my appointment time just to get rushed and unprofessional care. Additionally overall dirty. Chair had no plastic covering and visible dirt on it. Gave two stars solely because the front desk staff was nice and attentive at least.

Sarina at the front counter was incredibly helpful. She did not make me feel bad about any of me issues! I’ve been unable to get dental care due to lack of insurance and when she heard she jumped to help me out. Most dental offices I’ve been to have made me feel embarrassed bc of things like that but she was amazing. They better hold onto her but she’s amazing.
