Five stars for the Landmark Dental Team. I had a really bad toothache. I reached out to Dr Chow and he had me come in and get all fixed up by Dr kang on such short notice. Dr kang and his team did my root canal which by the way I was scared. But Dr kang and his team made me feel very comfortable and everything went smoothly. They completed the procedure and fixed me up, No more toothache. Thank you to Dr chow and Dr Kang and the Landmark Dental team and staff for always making my experience first class. I appreciate the pride and the exceptional service when I am there. Awesome job everyone!

Saw Dr Morikawa recently for a checkup and cleaning, the cleaning was done by Marina who was quite knowledgeable and very thorough with the work done. X-rays were also taken with great care and precision. They both made excellent recommendations and took the time to explain and answer any questions I had. Can't go wrong with them!

Great office! My wife and I started seeing Dr. Nagata about a year ago when we relocated to Oahu. I was in need of plenty work and Dr. Nagata was able to take care of a few cracks and cavities over a few visits. Very little soreness and gone by the next day. Even made my crown in 45 min. while I waited. The Dental assistants/Techs have a great working relationship with the Doctor which is always a plus to see people enjoy what they do at work. Thanks again and hope I don't see you until my cleaning. lol

Called regarding a toothache, and they were able to squeeze me in to see Dr. Kate Oliver the next day, who was super nice and knowledgeable. My gums were inflamed near my wisdom teeth, and she referred me to oral surgeon to get them taken out. She also thoroughly cleaned the afflicted area in case anything was stuck there. The nurse and staff are also very kind. Everyone there seem to genuinely care.
The lady at front desk helped me get an appointment at the oral surgeon and patiently gave them all the information needed. Wonderful establishment with new technology. I was impressed by the x-ray machine! Parking is validated in the garage just don't try to go to the guest/resident parking. Turn in the second entrance for the shops parking.
