Hundreds Love ID Dental Implant Center

I stumbled upon ID Dental while searching for a dentist near my kid’s pediatrician, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. I had a cracked filling and needed immediate care. Thankfully, they were able to accommodate me with a same-day appointment, which was a lifesaver. From the moment I walked in at noon, to walking out with a brand new filling at 12:45, everything was smooth and efficient. The staff were incredibly kind and sweet, making me feel comfortable throughout the process. Dr. Nam was not only professional but also courteous, addressing my concerns with expertise. I highly recommend ID Dental for anyone seeking quick, professional dental care in a convenient location.

Dr. Nam is an amazing dentist! He saved me from a horrible nightmare. My previous dentist did a very bad filling job on one of my molars, and I had been in serious pain for over 3-4 months. They diagnosed it as needing a root canal. However, I really didn’t want to undergo an unnecessary root canal, so I decided to get a second opinion and visited ID Dental Office.

When Dr. Nam looked at my X-rays, he provided a completely different diagnosis. The result was amazing. His treatment worked like magic, and I no longer have any pain. Additionally, my gum healed well under his care. Dr. Nam is very thoughtful, and all the staff in the dental office are kind, giving me a welcoming vibe every time I go. I highly recommend him!

좋은 치과 찾으시는 분들 꼭 방문하세요! 불필요한 신경치료 없이 너무 잘 치료하세요.

I’ve gone to multiple dentists but Dr. Nam is truly the BEST dentist I have ever met. He is very skilled, honest and nice. He is so good that even though I live in San Diego (about 3 hours away), I still come to Dr. Nam for all the treatments I need!!
He NEVER gives unnecessary treatments. Only provides needed treatments for the patient, which I love!!
Price is also very reasonable.

All the dental procedures that Dr. Nam has done were pain-free, especially his local anesthetic skills are AMAZING.

I wish I can give more than 5 stars!!

I definitely recommend!!

The best dentist I’ve been to!!! The doctor is very reassuring and makes sure to explain what’s going on very thoroughly. Not only does he make sure, for someone who gets very anxious, he listens to the patient when we do feel any pain or discomfort. The staff there is also so amazing!!! I highly recommend ID Dental.

I found my new dentist! Had a great experience here, the Doctor and his staff are wonderful. I recently had a surgery which I was nervous about because, well…it’s surgery and the worst kind because it’s dental. The doctor was very reassuring that I was in good hands and that it wouldn’t be painful or uncomfortable at all. I can honestly say that he was 100% right. Never at any point during the procedure was I in any pain or discomfort, a huge relief. It was quick and painless. His assistant and staff were wonderful and saw to it that my aftercare requirements were explained and taken care of. I would definitely recommend ID Dental absolutely positive experience!

FAQs About ID Dental Implant Center

How do you personalize treatment plans for each patient?

Every treatment plan begins with a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your dental goals, concerns, and medical history. We then create a customized roadmap that addresses your specific needs while considering factors like timeline and budget. Our team works closely with you to ensure the plan aligns with your lifestyle and preferences.

What makes your dental implant services unique?

Under Dr. Nam’s expertise, we offer advanced implant solutions including same-day and All-On-Four procedures. Our team uses 3D imaging and precise planning technology to ensure optimal implant placement and success rates. We guide you through every step of the process, from initial consultation to final restoration.

How often should I schedule dental visits?

For optimal oral health, we recommend routine check-ups and cleanings every six months. However, some patients may need more frequent visits based on their specific dental health needs.

What steps do you take to ensure patient safety?

Patient safety is our top priority, with strict sterilization protocols that exceed industry standards. We maintain a completely transparent infection control process, use single-use materials whenever possible, and regularly update our safety procedures. Our team undergoes continuous training to stay current with the latest safety protocols and best practices.

How soon can I return to work after a dental procedure?

Recovery time varies depending on the procedure and your individual healing process. For routine treatments like fillings or crowns, most patients return to work the same day. After more complex procedures like dental implants or oral surgery, we typically recommend taking 1-2 days off to ensure proper initial healing.
