Really excellent service, Dr. Yen is very caring and takes the time to listen to his patients. Kristin managed to book me in for a timely appointment after experiencing sensitivity in my tooth, I had Xrays, a check up, tooth clean and filling all done in the same appointment which was such a time saver for me.

I worked with Dr Joe Yen years ago and he is an amazing and gentle dentist. I broke a tooth last week and thought it would have to be pulled but Joe saved it. He also did a brilliant job of fixing up my chipped front tooth and he always does a great clean. Thanks for making my smile great again Joe!

Joe is an extremely talented and conscientious dentist with a humble and friendly, gentle manner. He has been a dentist in Auckland for many years and his new, owner-operated practice has a lovely calming environment. The support staff are also very nice and caring. Highly recommended for high quality, family dentistry.

Joe has been our family dentist for several years, providing superior care, skill, professional dental advice and kindness to myself, my husband and our 14 yo twins. Joe genuinely cares and takes an interest in our lives, which has helped build a rapport, making dental appointments more comfortable. Best veneers. Best dental implants. Best cleans. For me, itโs also the little rest breaks and gentle massage along the temple/jaw joint to ease tension and anxiety. Thanks Joe. We appreciate your wonderful care and wish you every success in your practice. Highly recommended!

What a team! Joe and Kristin work seamlessly together to provide expert care. As a former patient of the previous owner, Hans, I was happy to find Joe at the Epsom Dental Centre. The entire experience was genuine and stress-free; from the first contact on the phone with Kristin until the dental work I needed was complete. Joe was incredibly professional. I felt respected by his attentive, caring, relaxed and gentle manner. Kristin was equally engaged and seemed to have my best interests at heart. I was impressed by the calm atmosphere that they created for me. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a dentist who combines expertise with warmth and care!
