Dentists in El Cerrito, CA

Customer service is excellent and he or she is detailed during the cleaning exam.

First appointment, but less waiting would be ideal - 10:00 appointment, but didn’t get in until 10:20 or later. Front desk staff friendly.

Very great dentist. Very knowledgeable. Staff were all friendly and professional and they made the insurance process really fast and easy to understand. I highly recommend going here.

Bright Now! Dental & Orthodontics are doing work on my mouth that I never had done before. Richmond Dental never offered to do a deep cleaning on my teeth.

excellent cleaning.

A friendly n helpful receptionist

Scheduled an annual exam for my daughter, scheduling was easy, staff was responsive and friendly. Dr. Nguyen is also very knowledgeable and patient with my daughter. Thank you! See you next year. L

A little bit of a wait but really great service, Dr. Nguyen and her staff are really knowledgeable, very nice and friendly assistants, Esme has been there throughout my treatment and always makes me feel comfortable.

Every thing went well. I appreciate the overpayments being used as credits to pay outstanding bills. This is very, very helpful.

I had a Deep Cleaning yesterday and she was so professional. Great job!!

Clean, friendly, professional, and efficient. I recommend it to anyone look for a good dentist. Dr. Nguyen is not only a good dentist, but has a wonderful, light spirit. Also, she's cute.

Well I had another appointment with this dental office and let me say I was indeed scared as heck but my doctor and her assistant were very professional and made my experience way better than I expected....I felt safe and comfortable and they both took very good care of me. I will be returning to continue all my dental work completed at Bright Now Dental thank you and your entire staff and the receptionist in front office is truly a gem.

Very knowledgeable, attentive and professional, Clean, neat, latest equipment & techniques.

it was my first time going to this dentist and after i saw all the bad comments on the reviews i was somewhat wary. But i went on three occasions to the dentist office, and all three times everyone was very professional.The. first time it slipped my mind that i had to request the insurance to appoint me to that location, and the receptionist lady was really nice and helpful about it. on the other two times i two different dentist and assistants helped me and were really nice.

Over an hour wait In waiting room. Then another 15 in the chair. I’m ok with waiting but at least communicate with your patients that you’re running behind and offer some alternatives. The positive is that the doctor was professional with good bedside manner and thorough analysis.

The waiting time was unbearable. I waited for about 1 hour on a dental chair. But the doctor was amazing, skillful and fast. And also very friendly staff.

Close to my house so a very convenient location. Front desk staff super nice. The place is really clean and it’s obvious they put a lot of attention on keeping it safe and hygienic. I was one of only two patients there late morning and the atmosphere was super mellow. The x-ray tech was super nice and gentle (thanks!). The dental hygienist was a little disgruntled that I didn’t want to accept a couple of the treatments she recommended and she gave me a stern lecture about the fact I hadn’t been in to get my teeth cleaned in awhile (I have another dentist I see regularly which she wasn’t aware of). In all she was nice but I think wasn’t used to patients not accepting her advice for treatments and we had a bit of a heated moment when I kept saying no. I do think no means no and it’s important to consent to treatment! The dentist was pleasant enough and thorough. She offered a very quick maybe 10 min consultation. I’d rate this office a 4 for cleanliness and overall vibe.

Love the team at this location ! The dentist is fantastic . They have done a crown, implant and multiple deep cleanings for me.

Staff explained everything and hygienist was excellent.

Mostly have had good experiences at this office, friendly staff, easy appointments. Took off a star because I tried to refuse x-rays (I have no cavities or major dental issues at all) and they would not let me opt out. I deeply dislike the feeling of being forced to be exposed to unnecessary radiation against my will when it's not medically necessary for any reason. It probably says more about our broken healthcare system than this particular office, but it still left a bad taste in my mouth (lol)

I had a great experience with my dental visit. Don’t have enough great things to say about the front staff and back staff. The assistant was gentle with the x rays and Dr Nguyen was amazing! My teeth haven’t this great in a long time! Thanks Bright Now team!

This Bright Now Dental has been exceptional! Dr. Nguyen is the most throrough dentist I’ve been to and Jami did an excellent job on my cleaning but all the staff is amazing here. I would and have recommended this dentist to my friends and family

My experience with bright now has been great Dr Nyugen is so great and so gentle and very thorough and the front staff is awesome as well would highly recommend this office!

Overall had a great experience at bright now dental at the Cerritos office. The staff were very friendly and saw me right away. The manager Brittany was the one who help me and she did an exceptional job at making me feel comfortable and gave me great info on my option. She really knew her stuff. Looking forward to visiting again. Thank you bright now

This review is based on my consultation -- I haven't yet had the recommended treatments.
Thanks to Brittany at the front desk, who did a very professional and friendly job with me and the rest of the patients. The front desk is short-staffed but she is handling everything graciously. The dentist and her assistant (Esme?) also seem good and I will be making an appointment soon.

Everyone was very kind and attentive. The dentist was very reassuring. We thought there was a problem with my mom's crown. We found out that here was no problem. Dentist was very kind.

I had a tooth extraction yesterday and was feeling uncomfortable for most of the day. Had no bleeding and was careful to eat soft foods. Slept very well after a few pain killers. Am fine today, and the rain will help me take it easy.
Thank you, Dr. Nguyen and assistant, for helping me get through this procedure with as little discomfort as possible!!
