Wed Jan 13 2010Curiously, the reviews are written with very suspicious writings. Its kinda of like someone doing their own job evaluation. Funny though. LOL.

Tue Nov 10 2009Working with the children can be difficult, and it requires a lot of patience. Working with handicapped children is even worse. I have a handicapped daughter, and over the years I have been looking for a dentist who is willing to treat her. A year ago I found Dr. Nguyen on the internet. After reading all the recommendations and his qualification, I decided to bring my daughter to see him. When we saw Dr. Nguyen, I was prepared for some embarrassment situation, because I know my daughter's condition would bring about some burden.. But to my surprise, my daughter and I were well received by Dr. Nguyen and his staffs. On our initial visit, unlike many previous dentists who gave me a familiar comment like "your daughter's situation is difficult... blah blah, blah ...," Dr. Nguyen sympathetically said, "I can understand it must be difficult for you to find a dentist for your daughter, we promise to do our very best to give her a special care here..." Since then, it seems that Dr. Ngu... Read more

Wed Nov 04 2009Dr. Minh Nguyen was referred to us by our own family physician in Sugarland. He told me Dr. Minh Nguyen is currently his family dentist. He said Dr. Nguyen has been treating his family for more than 5 years. Because he would not trust anyone (other than Dr. Minh Nguyen) to work in his mouth, he would not mind to drive a long distance... Traveling from the Southwest to the Northwest is definitely ..not what I called an "enjoyable" trip... and to make it worse... you have to pay several tolls to get there. Nevertheless, my physician's referral was so convincing, I decided to give it a try. I saw Dr. Nguyen and he recommended a root canal and a crown done for my broken tooth. The task was done in 4 visits.. ALL ENCOUNTERS WERE PAINLESS !! This dentist is so intelligent and humble. I believe he must have the same degree of knowledge of the brain that of a neurosurgeon. Yes, ...seriously!! And for the outstanding service and the cost-effective treatment that I received from his off... Read more

Fri Oct 30 2009Luck does work, but only if you accept and believe them. We live in an era of unprecedented scientific and technological breakthrough, and we have become much more cause-effect oriented. We have come to understand that things do not just happen by themselves. We no longer believe that volcanoes erupt because the Gods are angry...Likewise, I do not believe my recent promotion to the top management of my company, as well as my new relationship, were simply due to luck, but to the smile, designed by the hands of Dr. Minh Nguyen. His knowledge, talent, and dedication were so phenomenal that the money I paid him was not just a quid pro quo. It is unquestionable that his product (my new smile) has given me a huge, unfair advantage both in business and personal life ...legally.

Fri Oct 23 2009I am especially embarrassed about being fearful and about the condition of my oral health and hygiene habits. I am often afraid the dentists will not take my fears seriously. Often, preveious dentists criticised me as if I was just being "childish." I know it's irrational, yet I always feel uncomfortable being in the dentist's office. Dr. Nguyen and his staffs were sensitive to my feeling. They tried and figured out what to do to minimize my discomfort in every dental visits. If you are looking for a dentist who knows how to listen and treat fearful patients, then call Dr. Minh Nguyen's office. He and his staffs are very competent in dealing with fearful patients. You can read more about his practice by googling for the key word "softdental."

Sun Oct 18 2009I had always a suspicion that dentists are doing everything for money. After I saw Dr. Nguyen, I changed my mind completely. He had a sincere effort of trying to help me to solve my dental problem. I had four wisdom teeth that were impacted and infected and needed to be removed. I had went to several dentists, but I could not afford their fee (I am college student, living on financial aid and family's bank). My face was swollen up when came to see Dr. Nguyen, and he immediately put me at ease. Though his office was very clean and modern; yet, he dressed and talked so friendly and casual. He took time to explain to me what I need, and gave me a fee that was about 800 dollars lower than the other dentists. He extracted my wisdom teeth without much trouble and saved me load of money. If you ever need a dentist for your wisdom teeth removal at an affordable prize in Houston, call Dr. Minh Nguyen, I highly recommend him ...he can fix your dental problem without breaking your bank!!

Wed Oct 07 2009This is how dentistry should be practiced.. a gentle, friendly service with a smile. Dr. Nguyen is an magnificent artist and he is supported by multi-language speaking staff. I thought my broken tooth was not salvageable and had to be extracted when I made the appointment .. BUT with his hands, (and hard work), Dr. Nguyen was able to restore my tooth to its original color and appearance. I look bettter, I feel better .....see myself ALIVE now. Thanks for a great dental care!

Fri Sep 25 2009Dr. Nguyen is the most charismatic, kind, endearing dentist I have ever visited. I strongly recommend him. He is very friendly and open, and really does attend to what the patient’s needs are. He is very gentle in his craft. Recently I took my elderly Grandmother to get her teeth extracted. She had an extraction that imperatively needed to be done, but no one would do it because they were afraid her high blood-pressure would affect the operation. However, Dr. Nguyen performed the operation while monitoring her pressure! I am most happy to see that he had alleviated her pain, and to see her smiling again within days. She had a tremendous recovery and felt minimal to no pain. If you are looking for a great experience and a great dentist, look for Dr. Minh Nguyen.

Mon Nov 10 2008Ok, here's my story to tell... my children and I have been patients of Dr. Nguyen's for about 3 years now. We usually just come in twice a year for our cleanings and x-rays and check-ups and maybe some minor fillings, nothing major, nothing spectacular. But it wasn't until this past weekend that I really was appreciative of the his services. I had been postponing removing my wisdom teeth for the longest time because they were not bothering me. I had been feeling soreness and tenderness around the gum area on and off all week and on Saturday, the pain became unbearable and I did not know what to do. I didn't want to just find any dentist that was open on a Saturday to go too, I did try to call Dr. Nguyen's office even though I knew he was closed. Well, he had an answering services that takes calls and messages 24 hours a day, and they said they would relay the message to the doctor. Well, it was about 6:30 on a saturday, I wasn't expecting to hear back from them until probably Monday.... Read more

Thu Nov 29 2007All I knew was that my tooth hurt reallllly bad. It was a Friday around 4pm and I couldn't take it anymore. Picked a dentist in the phone book that could see me at that time. Well, she said she could fill it instead of root canal. Sounds great, don't want root canal because that would really hurt, right? She filled it alright, so tight that she split the tooth in half! I remembered several years ago my husband had gone to a dentist for a lot of dental work, including couple root canals, and said he experienced no pain. I made the appointment and am I glad I did. The staff has been so nice. Dr. Nguyen took care of me. He explains everything as he is doing it so there are no surprises. He does everything within his power to make sure you are comfortable and feeling no pain before he begins any procedure and asks during just to make sure you are okay. I have recommended him to several of my friends. His office is about 45 min. from where I live, but well worth the drive.

Tue Jul 17 2007I had a bad experience with a dentist that I won't go into since childhood, but needless to say I never went to a dentist for a long time. My mouth became an unholy mess of broken teeth, huge cavities and my teeth were a nasty shade of browny/grey. I ended up talking with my hand in front of mouth and I couldn't look straight at people when talking or smiling. One rainy day one of my front teeth broke in half. I was so ashamed of myself. I sat and cried and cried. Now this was it, the final straw. I pulled out Dr. Minh Nguyen?s phone # that I had it forever. He was recommended to me by several good friends . Mr. Minh Nguyen is a GOD. No pain and just a feeling of utter elation that my mouth could be fixed. I left with an appointment and a tick list so could cross things off as they were done and keep an eye on my progress. I have to be honest, after that initial apointment my confidence soared. My first proper treatment session I had 4 broken teeth removed. No pain. Nothing. I... Read more

Thu Jul 05 2007I discovered Dr. Nguyen about 10 years ago. My wife saw a news story on local television about the advanced technology becoming available for dentistry. I was in my 40's and my dental condition was pretty bad. One tooth was cracked, and it needed a crown right away. Dr. Nguyen not only made my new crown in one visit, but the fit was perfect, and I felt no pain at all. That crown (and all his subsequent work) has been trouble free. Dr. Nguyen not only fixed that problem, but as my "mouth full" of silver fillings have failed over the years, Dr. Nguyen has replaced them with equally fantastic computer machined inlays. With the advanced techniques used by Dr. Nguyen over the years, I still have all my original teeth -- lots of restorations, but everything works great. I have no visible decay now, not a single spec. Only a few of dentists in Houston have the expensive machines capable of grinding crowns and inlays in one visit while you wait. Not only does this require advanced mac... Read more

Sat Jun 16 2007I have been taking my family to Dr. Nguyen's office for years (both at the old and new location). He and his staff have been nothing short of professional, caring, and skilled. I have referred many of our friends to his office and all of them have been very pleased with the results. When my daughter had to get her wisdom teeth removed, she was so scared and unwilling to get it done. However, Dr. Nguyen was very patient with her and explained everything to put her at ease. Although her wisdom teeth extractions required a slighty more complicated procedure (since they grew in funny), he skillfully completed the procedure in no time and did not cause her pain at all. We will certainly be coming back to his office as long as we stay in Houston!

Sat Jun 16 2007Our family moved to Houston about five years ago from a relatively small town, Chattanooga, TN. I remembered the time we were searching to find a GOOD dentist. It was not an easy thing to do since my wife suffers from dental phobia. We went to a dentist that was close to my area right after we settled in the NW of Houston but this dentist and his whole office were all business like. They were sleazy, clearly trying to sell us everything we don?t need so that by the time we left his office we were so unhappy and disappointed. We were hopping from dentist to dentist until a friend told us that he knew a GOOD, GENTLE, AND CARING dentist and his name was Dr. Minh Nguyen!!!! Dr. Minh Nguyen has ?EVERYTHING? we are looking for. As soon as you enter his establishment you will feel a friendly atmosphere. Dr Minh Nguyen is very friendly and will spend time with you. He is a phobic-friendly dentist. I can assure you that Dental phobia counseling on its own is not much use unless you have... Read more

Thu Jun 14 2007Dr. Nguyen performed an emergency crown replacement not long ago that deserves mention. My upper, back molar full crown was discovered to be cracked and leaking during routine cleaning. Dr. Nguyen took photographs of the damaged area and used these photos to discuss various options for the treatment. I decided to utilize the two-hour porcelain crown replacement. Dr. Nguyen utilized drip morphine anesthesia to eliminate any discomfort on my part. The old crown was removed using convential drill methods so as to expose a natural base to attach the new crown upon. The exising tooth was digitally photographed and the imagery downloaded into the computer. The software proceeded to guide a water jet device aimed at a porcelain block in the correct configuration for my existing tooth foundation. Each step of the procedure was described to me by Dr. Nguyen and an opportunity to ask (or rather mumble) questions was allowed. Dr. Nguyen answered all question in a professional, courteous ...

Sun May 27 2007I am EXTREMELY disappointed in the care that I received from this establishment. I felt like I was discriminated against, and was treated very unprofessionally. My first initial service with Dr. Nguyen was great, and so I referred my husband. He was scheduled to have some fillings and sealants, and when the procedure took less than an hour I wanted to know what services had been done. I questioned a staff member (Claudia) as to what services did he have...sealants or fillings. I know that there is a difference in price (I was a cash paying customer) She was highly offended that I questioned the charges and services performed. As a customer I have the right to know what I am being charge for, and in no way was I attacking the credibility of the dentist. I felt that maybe I was mistakenly charged for fillings and received sealants. During the same visit my husband had an impression done in preparation for cosmetic dentistry. I was informed that I would be contacted in 3 weeks t... Read more

Sun Aug 21 2005Dr. Nguyen is the most hitech-savvy dentist I have ever met. I have been a patient of Dr. Nguyen for 7 years. His ability and knowledge to utilize computerized equipment and hi-tech (laser etc.) equipment have amazed me. Dr. Nguyen works hard and do the best for his patients. I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen to be your dentist. Jason Wong

Sun Aug 21 2005I would like to commend this staff on their professionalism and I would recommend Dr. Nguyen and his staff to anyone that is thinking about maintaining good oral hygiene. I would also recommend the "soft tissue" laser surgery to anyone that is thinking about periodontal procedures. "No Pain, No discomfort". What a breakthrough. Scott Winski

Fri Aug 19 2005I have been a patient of Dr. Nguyen's for three years, and inquired about a teeth whitening treatment. The results were amazing!! Dr. Nguyen and staff make coming to an appointment easier when you are not only a patient, you're a friend. Sincerely, Stacey Crawford.

Fri Aug 19 2005I first brought my 7 year old child to Dr. Minh Nguyen after she had suffered extensive trauma to her front teeth due to a bike wreck. The work Dr. Nguyen and his staff did for her smile was amazing! They have now taken care of my entire family with exceptional care! Carol LeBlanc

Fri Aug 19 2005I can honestly state that my 12 year old twins truly enjoy their visits to the dentist. Dr. Nguyen is a WONDERFUL dentist and has the NICEST staff. He is very intelligent, patient and has state of the art equipment. We have been coming to his office for over 5 years and have always received nothing but the best in service. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Nguyen to other family members and friends. Olga Salazar

Fri Aug 19 2005Before coming to Dr. Nguyen my teeth were so misaligned and out of place I was embarrassed to smile. I was real conscious about it that when ever I took pictures people thought I was mad all the time. My friends would joke about my grin and call it the smile only a mother could love. I visited Dr. Nguyen to see if he could help me with my situation. He was so eager and excited about helping me & he made it a personal goal of his to help me. After two years of treatment people cant believe I am the same person. I dont have to worry when I laugh or people being horrified when staring at my teeth .Dr Nguyen made it possible for me to smile and for that I will be eternally grateful. VICENTE CARDENAS

Thu Aug 18 2005I've been to quite a few Dentists in my time and Dr.Nguyen is by far the most warm and friendly dentist ive met. You're not treated like a number as you are at most dental offices. Dr.Nguyen and his staff make you feel at home and as if they are treating family. I've recommended him to all my friends and family, and anyone else who wants to receive care and quality service.

Wed Aug 17 2005Dr. Nguyen and his staff did a fantastic job correcting my crossbite. I only had to wear braces for eight months, and my teeth are now perfect. My monthly appointments were great as I never had to wait long, and his staff made me feel right at home. Additionally, I got to watch DVD's while getting my teeth worked on. For anyone in search of a great dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen. Sincerely, Michael Alaimo

Mon Aug 15 2005Dr. Minh Nguyen did a great job at straightening my bottom teeth with braces, now when I smile I can open my mouth & let my straight teeth show. I have been a patient of Dr. Nguyens for six years, and I would recommend Dr. Nguyen & his staff to anyone looking for superior professional dental care. Stephanie R. Ciecierski
