We travel quite a distance to come see Frank, the dentist, he and his staff are excellent! They are professional, thorough and friendly. The office is always clean and easy to get to, right off the 22 freeway. My young daughter is nervous (as most children are) to go to the dentist and here, they are sensitive to children and patient with them. Frank helps ease my child's nervousness.
The hygienists are great too. We could obviously find any 'ol dentist way closer to our home but we wouldn't get the hospitality that we get from Frank and his staff. It's worth the drive!

I love this practice and that's saying a lot since I hate going to the dentist! I have been going here for about 8 years. I started out as a cash self pay patient. They have reasonably priced services for those without insurance. I feel the staff and the doctors are all patient and caring. When I was struggling with anxiety about a filling Dr. Chang walked me through every step as we went and was super reassuring. He did an amazing job! I recommend this practice to my friends all the time!

Awesome place, I take my whole family here. I really trust the staff and the Dr. Is very polite and generous. He makes you feel like a real patient not to mention he the only Dr. Taking care of you, he always have time to answer all your questions never rushing you out. Thanks maranatha for existing.

Marantha Dental is a very clean and nice looking office. I love the setup and did have a good experience my first time in the office. Unfortunately, when I tried to schedule for a check up the next time they told me I had to get a deep cleaning or they wouldn't see me. This was very rudely put by the receptionist by the way and definitely not handled with care.
She said, "we can't see you then if you're not willing to pay for it". I said I would get a second opinion. I went to another dentist where I was told I DID NOT need a full deep cleaning just some scaling/root planing in some areas. Marantha had told me I need a full deep cleaning for each quadrant in my mouth and it was very expensive. They also DID NOT measure the pockets in my gums. I've been told by several dentists that measurements are necessary to show a deep cleaning is needed, and the numbers of this should be told to the patient in order to prescribe a deep cleaning.
I know some dentists just tell their patients a deep cleaning is needed when sometimes it's not because it pays well. I hope this is not the case but it sure feels that way after my experience. I felt it necessary to post this review and let other people know to watch out for this and the way you're treated if you don't immediately buy everything they say about your teeth. Get a second opinion with this dentist!

My family and I have been a patient of a different dental office for the past 15 years. However, their customer service has gone downhill over the last several visits. So, I decided to move my entire family over to Maranatha Dental. Since the move, my dental experience has been so much better. The doctors are great, the staff is friendly, and the facility is clean. We are super happy that we made the switch!

Currently in the office for my annual cleaning. I've been pushing the appointment back because the fear of COVID19. But so far, I see the office is so clean, and the staffs are following disinfectant and cleaning protocols carefully. All their tools, machines, and equipments are plastic wrapped and disinfected well. They have a new Aerosol suction machine operate during the cleaning process to make sure it sucks all particles in case anyone coughs or sneezes.
I feel more at ease now. I have Dr. Kim today. He is quiet but very good too. He takes his time and very thorough. I just found out they take children too, so I made an appointment for my 7 years old son. During this pandemic, we were scared to go anywhere, but I do feel at ease at this office, so I will bring my whole family here from now on.

I swear Dr. Chang and his office staff are still the BEST in OC! They are super attentive and honestly care about their patients. I was there yesterday and they reached out this AM to make sure I was feeling OK. Dr. Chang is super professional and makes sure you feel comfortable during your procedure. Thank you again for making my experience a pleasant one! See you in 6 months. :

Couple years ago, the cleaning lady at a resort I stayed at accidentally threw away for retainers. After I got back to my trip, I called maranatha dental to see if I could come in ASAP to get retainers. It literally took them 2 days to get my retainers which is super fast. I now come to get my teeth cleaned twice a year with dr Chang. He's my favorite dentist because he is very thorough and knowledgeable in what he does

Dr. Frank Chang is cool. He's just a really cool guy who is very dedicated to his craft and cares about his patients. His staff is always very friendly and cheery, and overall office feel is great. They had moved from an older location to this brand new office and it's definitely much nicer! My wife goes to him, my in-laws will start going to him, and my new baby will probably go to him in the future too. Parking is easy in their private lot, right off the 22 highway and the wait is never long.

I've been with Dr. Chang for over 7 years now. I'm shocked I haven't written a review for his practice yet. He's moved locations to a brand new office and it's sterile clean with great service! Dr. Chang doesn't try to rush through. He is very patient with my questions and is attentive to caring for my teeth throughout the session. You never feel rushed. Parking is very convenient and the receptionists are always very friendly! I was referred here by my co-workers and plan on referring my parents here!

I was looking for a dentist for my cleaning routine and saw this dental office on Yelp. The office was very nice, clean and looked professional. Dr. Chang is a great dentist. He takes time to explain all the questions I have. One of the thing it impressed about my appointment. It is very on time and I don't have to wait so long like many other places. Highly recommend!

We went here based on the 5 stars yelp review. After what we been through I can proclaimed What a fraud this office is We have PPO dental & health insurance, before making appointment i called my insurance they assured me I can go to any dentist I like. So I found this office on yelp, based on 5 Star reviews I called them for a regular cleaning appointment.
I gave them my insurance information & to call the insurance for verification. According to them they verified that's why they scheduled appointment for me & my husband. My appointment was at 10:45 am, got there by 10:20 didn't see dentist until 11:20. By then the dentist only go over my X-ray & explains bunch of other things I need along with deep cleaning instead of regular cleaning. this is not the first time I experienced this.
I left my last dentist because he was billing my insurance like sky are the limits, there's no ethical & moral from this health care industry. My insurance of course paid for it as usual. I know with any new dentist they will 100% sure recommend deep cleaning. Which to me it's fine even though I don't like needle to numb my gum line.
What makes me furious is the incompetence & unprofessional from the front desk to the office manager of going back & forth with the authorization. We have insurance for all our adult lives never once at any other dentist we had in the past make us come in for a cleaning but end up not doing the service the appointment was for. We left the appointment feeling fine without the cleaning & let them do whatever they need w.the insurance for *authorization* My insurance I called 3 time, before appointment, after appointment, and after my visit. 3 different time they tell me the same process.
They don't need pre authorization from the provider to pay for a claim, there's no network I need to abide to and they pay for whoever I go to. So after my appointment I texted the office asking where is the *authorization* at.they said they mailed my x-ray and pre-authorization request to my insurance for approval, 2 weeks later I called my insurance, the insurance said they received nothing. so I called the office back told her what my insurance for the third time confirmed to me how they pay for claims, she then said well then you just pay whatever the quote we quoted you, I asked her what quotes?
She then again agonizing me that I left right after my appointment so she didn't had a chance to tell. What a bunch of crocks. I was standing there for couple minutes thinking I was done and never once the dentist said the office will give you a quote. He only said we need authorization from your insurance then will call you for another appointment.
She now then said yeah we gave your husband a quote & not you because you left right after. At this time even thought i know this is not where I want my family to come but I'm still curious to see how much & greed this office is so I asked her how much did you quote my husband? Of course she don't have the answer, she then connected me to the office manager.the boomerang drum line office manager tells " we can't give you the quote yet because we still waiting for your insurance approval ". UN F.ING BELIEVABLE.

I have got to say that I've been through a few dentists but Dr. Frank Chang is by far the best dentist I've ever had! Before coming to him, I went to a dentist that my mother referred me to. Long story short, he said my cavity fillings were old so he took them out and replaced them. My tooth was sensitive for about 8 months and I couldn't stand it any longer, so here enters Dr. Chang.
He used is powerful machines and detected that I needed a root canal. He sent me to the right specialist and I had it taken care of. He continued the procedure with great care and tells me exactly what he is doing when he is doing it. He takes great pride in his work and it truly shows. Every time I go to the dentist now, I actually do not mind it at all. Plus, he has NETFLIX! So if you're looking for an amazing dentist, this is the guy for you!

Best dental experience in my life! Been coming here now almost 6 years from when it used to be at the old office. The experience has only gotten better with their modern facilities, xrays and tvs. I have been to the dentist very frequently as a kid with crowns and fillings. then as an adolescent with more fillings needed. and now as an adult s/p invisalign and permanent retainers.
I thought the cavity days were over but I still get the occasional one but with Dr. Chang and his team, it is no longer the traumatic experience it used to be. Highly recommend to everyone for a modern, comfortable, trustworthy dental office and dentist!

One of the Best Dentist I ever had. I had other Dentist that clean my teeth and it hurts a lot but with Dr. Frank I have not been disappointed and I don't feel much of pain because he is always very caring and soft unlike other dentist that do things so rough. Strongly recommend to all the people who are afraid of pain.

I haven't been to the dentist in years prior to coming to Marantha. The last experience atthe dentist, left me hospitalized for a week and traumatized. The only reason I went was because it was part of the criteria for my deductible. Looking back a little over a year ago, I laid on an exam room chair and started shaking. Then out of nowhere tears started flowing uncontrollably. Dr. Anh was amazingly patient with me and explains EVERY STEP before, during and after any procedure, cleaning or exam.
She is caring, courteous, professional, knowledgeable and quite frankly, my favorite dentist I have ever had. I actually look forward to my dental appointments! They also try to be flexible with their schedules and are open on Saturdays, and if you can't make it don't sweat it! This office has texting capabilities. Did I mention they have a new location?
Be sure to keep your eyes peeled as you near the 22 freeway. It's the driveway right before the freeway. The new location is spacious, clean and upgraded w/TV screens on the ceilings so you can continue to watch your Netflix program during procedures. The staff is so kind and efficient that I sometimes feel like I'm at a spa instead of my dentist!
On behalf of the population that fears dentists, thank you Marantha for the care you provide and especially to Dr. Anh! It is always an blessing to know I am in such good hands!
