Dr. Vivian W Chui, DDS - Reviews

I wish I would have seen all the negative reviews prior to having Dr. Chui treat both my children. After 30K spent on my 2 children, both are left with permanent stains on their teeth. I suspected treatment was taking too long so after 5 consecutive years of having braces on, I got a second opinion form another orthodontist who advised me to immediately take them off as their teeth are staining and their teeth are not healthy. Sure enough, I had to fight with Dr. Chui to take them off as she wanted to keep them on as she will not stop at trying to align and fix cross bites and tongue thrust issues at the expense of your children's teeth being permanently stained and decayed. Dr. Chui does not have her patient's best interest in mind and I can't even describe the emotional damage she has caused my daughter now that she feels she cannot smile or has to adjust her smile to hide her stains. Please stay away so your children do not end up like mine. I was lucky enough to have prevented more serious decay but I have a close friend whose daughter is a lot worse than my kids. Please do not entrust in Dr. Chui. STAY AWAY!

My experience as a patient in Dr. Chui’s office has been wonderful. I had many preconceptions about braces when I signed on for them, but I needed them and couldn’t have chosen a better orthodontist, a perfectionist whose ideal is to provide an effective and pain-free experience for each patient. In my case, she’s modified her adjustments around my travel schedule so my braces haven’t interfered with my plans. The braces themselves, by the way, are discrete and lovely in their own way. Dentistry can be an art form, and Dr. Chui has mastered this art. She also knows how to treat TMJ. Anyone with a crooked bite and a tendency to grind would do well to seek her out. What she’s done to minimize my grinding is nothing short of miraculous. My dental problems affected more than my mouth. I was holding one shoulder up, the other was starting to freeze; I had positional vertigo, a sinus issue, and pain beneath my cheek bones. My back teeth were constantly sore from my grinding. Some of Dr. Chui’s treatments addressed these issues, and she also sent me to an equally gifted physical therapist who worked more miracles. As time has gone on, I’ve relaxed more and more into this process because I’m feeling better all the time. Each adjustment has been an improvement. The worst thing a patient can do is rush Dr. Chui because the correction of some issues can be time-consuming, and her strength is in her patient determination to move your teeth into the most perfect and comfortable position. I always enjoy going into Dr. Chui’s office, too. She has a staff of happy and optimistic co-workers who are equally dedicated to her patients’ welfare.

This is awful. Ruined my child's mouth. Took him out of treatment to start over with another Orthodontics
