"What we like most about referring to Dr. Chan’s offices is that I appreciate very much the detail and precision that we receive when it comes to implants. It’s remarkable, I share with patients routinely, and all of us marvel at how our final crown restoration, as typically would be with and implant, how it fits so routinely in the patient’s mouth, and it functions well, and the patients leave with a smile, not only whether it’s a cosmetic case or whether its something for function, which they most typically are. They walk away, happy, and comfortable."

"Most people get their wisdom teeth taken out when they're younger teenage, or slightly older than that, but younger. But no, lucky me, I got mine taken out in my late 20s a couple years ago. My wisdom teeth were just never a problem for me until they were, unfortunately. One of my wisdom teeth erupted and then got impacted and then slightly infected after a while so luckily I had Dr. Mike Chan take a look at it and he was really great about getting me in quickly to get that tooth extracted and taken care of. He didn’t want to run the risk of any developing infection, so he was great about getting me and getting that all squared away before it got worse. I was really thankful to him and his staff for getting me in so quickly and getting it taken care of."

"I was referred to Dr. Chan by my dentist because I had two baby teeth that never came out because there was no adult tooth behind them to push them out. ...It actually took a while because it was complicated. ...Dr. Chan was wonderful. He made me feel very calm, and I felt that he was very capable and very confident. He was also very thoughtful - he checked in with me after every procedure to see how I was doing and also every member of his staff was very thoughtful, very friendly, very confident."
