I do not recommend this dentist for the following reasons. In June, a small portion of a molar filling fell out so I chose this dentist due to the proximity of his office and his ability to see me on short notice. Before the visit, I had no pain, and I simply needed the small portion to be refilled. During my visit, he made me believe that I needed to take out the entire old filling and replace it with an inlay. When asked if this was my only choice, he replied yes so I had the procedure done and was charged $365. There were 2 things wrong with this procedure though. 1) The only option he gave me was the most expensive option. By law, he was supposed to provide a complete list of filling options along with the costs, which he didnt do. 2) More importantly, he drilled too deep and came too close to the nerve. Ever since then, that tooth is very sensitive to cold, hot, and sweets. Now I can only use the left side of my mouth to eat. I was later referred me to an endodontist because the dentist thought a root canal was the only solution. I am very unhappy with Dr. Bui and Ucare dental. My teeth were healthy and without pain before. I will now end up with a root canal, extra expenses, and many days of pain and suffering.

I know this doctor: 3months
