I had a filling on a front tooth that a dentist in Long Beach filled seven times and it kept falling out. I was fed up and came back to Dr. Chu. They were able to find me an appt within 48 hours and he did a fantastic job. You can’t even tell which tooth has the filling. I will do the 90 minute drive here for any tooth services.

I've been going to Dr. Chu for years, and he's the best dentist I've ever had! He's done routine cleanings, fillings and a root canal for me. Everything was always very painless and efficient. His staff are all very kind too. I've moved to the inland empire now, but I still make the drive!
