Tigard Modern Dentistry

As someone who is generally anxious about going the dentist due to previous bad experiences, I really appreciate the care and thoughtfulness of the team here. Dr. Lam is gentle, thorough, and checks in frequently to make sure I’m still comfortable, and my experience with Monet (hygienist? Not 100% sure of title) today was fabulous— she is very warm and friendly, clearly passionate about her work, and she made a typically nerve-wracking experience more enjoyable for me. Thank you both for your excellent care :)

Needed to get 3 of my wisdom teeth removed. Ali at the front desk was very kind and helpful. She explained my insurance coverage to me and got me scheduled for the oral surgery quickly and efficiently. Dr. Asghar and the Dental Assistant Val were both great and got me through the surgery in minutes and I recovered quickly with zero complications. As painless as pulling teeth can be.

This place is a giant scam. They took 20+ x-rays and a saliva test. Both as part of a “routine” annual exam. Ensured me over and over it was covered by insurance. (TBD) They then determined, based off x-rays ran through an AI service, I needed a deep clean and could no longer have the regular teeth cleaning that my insurance covered. I would have to pay $1000 to get my teeth cleaned because I needed the deep clean. I asked if I could just have the covered exam and then determine if deep clean was still needed at a later time and they said they legally could only do the deep clean now. Quite the 180 switch. I left without my teeth being cleaned. The whole reason for my visit. Do not come here. I reported them to my insurance. Doubt they’ll be in business long with a manipulative business model.

The team at this dentistry delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish—my teeth have never felt cleaner. Doctor Vo was incredibly thorough yet gentle, taking the time to explain each step and make sure I was comfortable throughout the process. She followed up with a clear, reassuring overview of my oral health, and the entire staff created an atmosphere that felt welcoming rather than clinical. I left with noticeably brighter teeth and minimal discomfort. 10/10

Dr. Lam and the rest of the staff are awesome! I had a dental emergency returning from vacation and they were able to see me that day. Visits are easy to schedule and, with the latest technology being utilized, treatments are top notch. I can’t recommend this clinic and team enough!

Tigard Modern Dentistry receptionist answered with sincere courtesy and concern when I called them on the afternoon of June 11 describing my fully cracked tooth that required immediate care. I was in Portland from out-of-state, leaving the next day and still traveling for 2 more weeks before I would arrive home. I was obviously not a former patient. Dr. Lam saw me at 4:30 in the afternoon and I was on my way before 7:00 pm with a comfortable new crown. Dr. Lam, Mayra, and Shelli were reassuring, kind, and capable every step of the way. I am so glad I called Tigard Modern Dentistry! (My Colorado dentist provided me a list of in-network providers near where I was staying.) I was very lucky I called Dr. Lam. She saved my tooth and my vacation. Thank you Dr. Lam!

Honestly, some of the best dental care I've had. I'm a ginger (MC1R gene) so numbing can be an issue & they understand it. I've had a crown replaced same day, an implant, laser gum treatment, and a couple fillings... not to mention regular cleanings. Friendly staff, a great group of hygenists, and the folks at the desk are patient with folks with questions. For me, conveniently located just a mile from home... less of an ordeal than driving across town. No complaints.

First trip to this dentist today - VERY HAPPY! Dr. Lam and the staff were lovely and got my teeth all fixed up on the very first visit, and it was affordable too (I do have insurance). Very gentle and thoughtful, checked in with me a lot throughout the procedure. I've already scheduled my next visit in 6 months. Thank you? 10/10 would recommend.

After not going to a dentist in about 7 years I was extremely nervous. Dr Lam and her hygienist was very polite, fast, informative and got my cleaning filling and Invisalign scans done right then and there. She helped me get set up with an oral surgeon and explained everything so thoroughly. They took the time to break down all the pricing and out of pocket costs and sent me home with a folder of information to look back on. Highly recommend this practice and Dr Lam specifically.
