I approached Dr. Hung to correct major crowding of my lower teeth, and minor crowding in the upper with Invisalign.
During my consultation I was impressed with his ability of explaining (sometimes evening drawing) the structure and physiology of moving teeth. Before I began treatment, he emphasized the importance of attaining a proper bite, focusing on functionality and balance over aesthetics. I was disappointed to hear that my teeth wouldn’t be perfectly straight but appreciated his honesty by not making false promises. He also stressed to need for greater diligence (over traditional braces) in terms of wearing time and changing retainers to ensure continued progress during my treatment.
He advised me to remove all four of my wisdom teeth; recommended expert oral surgeons, he even forwarded my CAT scan (for a second opinion; my lower wisdom teeth were close to nerves) and arranged a consultation with one of these experts. I couldn’t be more greatly for his support during and after the ordeal of pulling these teeth; he soundly advised me based on the recommendations of my chosen oral surgeon.
His clinic employed the latest technology to capture a virtual model of my teeth and thus I never experienced fitting issues with any of my retainers.
After my bite was corrected I was thrilled with the ease with which I could chew and the slight tension in my jaw, which I barely noticed, subsided. He further proceed to perform occlusal adjustment to smooth the edges on my upper and lower front teeth, this greatly improved aesthetics.
Financially, the cost was competitive considering the high level of work done. A word of caution regarding clinics running “specials”, if it seems too good to be true, then it is, I’ve nearly committed to other clinics offering half-off specials and making false promises just to get a sale, I assure you this is not one of them. If you think the cost is too high, I believe that you can negotiate with billing for a better price. They offer an interest free payment plan that I didn’t see anywhere else.
Regarding his staff, I’ve gotten tremendous satisfaction from them especially Dave, Albert and Michelle. Dr. Hung, himself, always greeted me with a smile, a firm hand-shake and words of encouragement.
Overall the level of expertise and service cannot be matched; I highly recommend Dr. Hung to anyone looking for the foremost Orthodontist.
