    Dr. Lum was great. Spent a lot of time with me and felt like he puts a lot of effort into his practice. Will definitely recommend to others and happy I was able to find him.

    An incredible experience! All the reviews were true. He is the kindest dentist I've ever had. He did a great job of walking me through all the processes and procedures. All the hard truths he laid down were done kindly and without judgment! He was also very good at answering and quelling all my curiosities. I have no anxieties about coming back. I'm glad I scheduled my next appointment with him! Now, time to floss so I can make doc proud!

    Really awesome dentist! Left my teeth feeling whiter than ever before, and was detailed in explaining what/why behind procedures, and what to expect. Recommending my family and friends in the Fremont to this dentist soon.

    Took x-ray even though I had one six-months ago, and took measurements such as teeth to gum distance, which seemed like a lot of diagnostics without cause, but I suppose it was the first time seeing him. He gave a mirror and showed me some things in my mouth, which a dentist has never really done before during a routine cleaning, which was nice. He stressed flossing technique, particularly behind the last tooth in the back of the mouth, which was the first time a dentist had told me that as well. At the end, his assistant put on a sticky layer of fluoride that was supposed to restore minerals, which is generally only given for children, but that they stated they are now doing for adults too for cavity prevention. He was a bit aggressive on the cleaning, and my gums were sensitive to cold water for the next couple of days, so not the best if you have sensitive teeth.

    My first time with this office. It is a big office and they greeted me with a smile. The biggest upside of this place is that they care about you, take their time and explain everything thoroughly and carefully including your other options and your benefits. After filling out the documents, they took some X-rays and then Dr. Lum started to examine my teeth. He talked about what my needs are, what are the options and how the process works. We created a long term plan to take care of my needs, one at a time, and then Dr. Lum started to clean my teeth. Overall, it took me about 2 hours but I do not have any complaints about anything. Will come back hopefully for a long time.

    Martha and Dr Lum were great. They were very efficient with my appointment but were also gentle and spent a lot of time with me. They were careful to point out and explain any problem areas they saw, discuss all my options for next steps, and give time to decide - I felt zero pressure to pursue costly treatments, etc. as I have at other offices. The reception team was also amazing - they welcomed me in right away and then when I finished with my cleaning had a printout for me of the suggested treatment options along with what my actual cost with my insurance would be for each and got me set up for my next appointment right away.

    I have zero complaints about Brilliant Smiles. Private parking, nice modern office, super clean inside, and Dr. Lum has a fantastic bedside manner. Very friendly, professional, and makes you feel at ease. Maryann at the reception desk is really sweet, she stayed on the phone with me as my headphones kept cutting out…4 times. Most would have hung up after the 2nd time. I particularly enjoy the large TV screen by your chair, the ocean scenery they stream is relaxing and I loved being able to see my X-rays that zoomed in.
