Most frustrating dental experience. Please read entire review before booking this dentist. Went in to get a toothache looked at and a cleaning. I arrived for my appointment and the technician took me back and gave me a bunch of X-rays. I waited for a while to see Dr. Sundberg who reviewed the X-rays with me. They were detailed (so I thought) and outlined that I have multiple cavities. She outlined what my treatment would look like and pretty much concluded my visit - no cleaning. When I asked about my cleaning, she apologized that I waited so long and had no idea I didn't get the cleaning. When I went to check out, the treatment plan she provided was nearly $5,000 (with good dental insurance). Flustered, I agreed to schedule a cleaning and part 1 of my treatment plan. Unfortunately I had to reschedule my cleaning appointment due to a move, but confirmed my next appointment. I was under the impression that I'd receive a cleaning at that second appointment. When that appointment came, I paid for my parking, went up to her office, and was told my appointment was cancelled because I never answered her phone calls regarding my appointment. I have never met a doctor, dentist or specialist who cancels an appointment because of a no answer confirmation. After finding a new dentist and transferring my X-rays, my current dentist explained to me how terrible they really were. They were so blurry that the cavities could not be seen clearly. It required a new X-ray and by comparison to the ones she had given me, I completely understood. They were not clear at all, where as my new one clearly outlined where my cavities were on the tooth. Furthermore, my new dentist quoted me between $500 and $1,500 for my entire treatment depending on what crown I chose (metal versus white). I sincerely hope this review saves someone else the hassle and frustration I went through.

Updating my review from a few years ago as the practice changed hands to become PDX Center for Dentistry: I love this dental office. The whole team is fantastic. The front desk team is friendly, helpful and quick. My hygienist Jerri is super thorough and I know she prevents cavities from forming before they start. Dr. Seo is great - he is very friendly and a great listener. Always very concerned about any problem I’m having but also reassuring about any issues that need to be solved. It can be hard to find a dentist where you are comfortable and don’t feel pressured to pay for procedures you are not sure you really need. I have never felt that here. Highly recommend. I drive pretty far just to come here since I don’t work downtown anymore but it is worth it (validated parking helps too!). Do you want CLEAN teeth?? Like really super clean? Like every last piece of any thing gently but thoroughly scraped away? If the answer is yes, then you must come see Jerri at Sundberg Dentistry. I've been coming to Dr. Sundberg for years because she was right across the street from my office and she is excellent. Last year my company moved across town and I was considering switching dentists just for convenience. Then Jerri started as my new hygienist and she is simply amazing. My teeth have never been so clean! If you are in the market for a new dentist, Dr. Sundberg and her team are the absolute best and I cannot recommend them more highly.

  • Lynne Dewhurst

I've been a patient since this was Sundberg Dental and while I didn't have the issues that a lot of past patients had with the previous dentist, I absolutely love Dr. Seo even more. Everyone who works at the office very obviously cares deeply about their patients. I have pretty severe anxiety - especially around dental appointments - and the staff here have always done a fantastic job at reassuring me while not being condescending. Kent at the front desk is always super friendly and makes checking in and out a breeze. Jeri, the hygienist, is incredible - fast, efficient, and painless. She's great at reminding you of the oral care you need without making you feel bad for not flossing enough (sorry Jeri!) Dr. Seo specifically is fantastic at his job - I had to have a cavity filled last year, and I was in and out faster than I've been for some cleanings! The whole process was painless and (nearly) enjoyable. I've had a number of crowns throughout the past 5 years - several from other dentists and 1 from Dr. Seo. The process with Dr. Seo was faster from beginning to end; the crown fit better first try, the color matching was perfect, and the process of seating the crown was pain-free. I've never felt "upsold" or experienced anyone trying to talk me into unnecessary work. I highly recommend PDX Center for Dentistry.

  • A B

The dental hygienist means well and does an excellent job technically speaking (very skilled at her job), but bedside manner is lacking. Every single appointment, I get scolded pretty much nonstop about my lack of health insurance, and the pH of my mouth. One of these things is too expensive (insurance), and the other, I can’t control. Or at least, I’ve asked her for tips on how to improve it, and she has none. It gets very tiring- I’m there to get my teeth cleaned, not get berated or listen to her rants on random cultural topics (weddings, her kids, politics etc). Not only that, too much upselling…I can’t afford to get X-rays done every 6 months. I can’t afford their private dental insurance (she’s tried to get me to buy it at least 3 times now). It’s just exhausting. Having someone in your mouth is stressful enough, without adding the scolding and the pushy behavior. Add to the fact that it’s downtown, difficult to get parking, and I spend the whole time wondering if someone is going to smash my windshield in. It’s not exactly affordable either, for those of us paying out of pocket.

  • Francesca Yvonne

Excellent experiences in dentistry are uncommon and therefore worthy of a very positive review! Dr. Seo ( pronounced "so") is an incredibly calm, dedicated professional with amazing communication skills (he speaks fluent English, Spanish, and Korean!). He is patient and kind and so are his amazing team. They work with you honestly and with integrity and explain all the procedures thoroughly and clearly. They are upfront about costs and worked with my budget so that I could receive the care I needed and not break the bank. I truly cannot say enough about how appreciative I am to have a dentist who is extremely skilled not only in his occupational field, but also on a very human level as a healer. His exceptional commitment to his patients is reflected in his choices in competent, capable staffing. Make an apppintment now because once the word is out, there will be a huge wait and also, please know that this office is hardcore serious about protecting themselves and their patients. I felt very safe and well- cared for. Take your pearly whites to Dr. Seo. Do it today!

  • Nick McCarthy

Looking for a Dentist in the Portland area? You can do no wrong at PDX Center for Dentistry. I'm a recent transplant from NYC, as well as a hypochondriac who loves going to the doctor and can get acute oral pain when visiting the Dentist. Well, I had nothing to fear here. Dr. Seo and his amazing staff including my new Hygienist Jerri, did an excellent job cleaning my teeth as well as making sure I didn't feel a thing for the minor work I needed to get done. They also understand the challenges of the COVID world, meaning that my entire experience there felt safe and comfortable. Everyone here is friendly, helpful and efficient. I also want to give a shout-out to Emily, who even though I accidentally cancelled my appointment online, got me all sorted! I can't recommend PDX Center for Dentistry enough. My only regret is I can't get more work done with them, but that's a good thing. I know they'll keep my teeth in good shape so I can continue living the way I want to. If you need a new Dentist, or are new to the PDX hood, you can't go wrong visiting the team here.

  • Phil Hansen

Dr Sundberg was very accommodating and kind while explaining some issues I needed to fix. I went in for a cleaning/first time patient visit with pain in one of my molars. The pain was diagnosed and a plan was set to get it taken care of within the next six months with the option to finance what my insurance wouldn't cover. Kent, at the front desk, was helpful and friendly while making sure all of my paper work was in order and explaining my insurance coverage. Both hygienists were also kind and very efficient with their x-ray and cleaning procedures. I've seen reviews about "unprofessional conversations" and can only assume that they're referring to the friendly open nature of the entire staff. I enjoyed having everything out in the open and no "backroom/hallway conversations" going on about who knows what. What you see and hear is what you get and it's awesome to feel confidence in the dentists chair with genuine people.

  • Analiza Grabowski

20/10 this place is the best!! Small business feel, they really care about you and your teeth! From the checkin, to the hygienist, to Dr Sam Seo… they are all equally kind, memorable and thorough. If you want superior care, great humans to interact with and your teeth taken care of - go here! I have had the pleasure of going here several times for cleaning. I have had two retainers/night guards made for me and Dr Seo made sure they fit well and customized them to me- plus they use state of the art tech!! No plaster in my mouth yay! Kent is the front desk person and he is so kind and makes sure he communicates with patients via their chat system to confirm all is well before and after appt. Jeanie (I think) has educated me so much on my teeth and what to look for in a quality cleaning and areas to focus on because of my anatomy. So grateful to this team! Hope this review helps other patients!

  • Stan Roman

Dentist: Dr. Seo, DMD is a General practice dentist who is very professional, fast and has a very good way about him. I would never think about going to anyone else. He recently performed two crown replacements of old crowns (they were about 50 years old). He did an incredible job. The replacement crowns were awesome. No pain, no soreness and the new crowns feel incredible. The laboratory Dr. Seo utilizes, did an incredible job as well. Dental Hygienist: Jeri, the Registered Dental Hygienist, is probably the best in the business. Dental assistants: All were very professional and courteous. They go out of their way to ensure the patient remains as comfortable as possible. Front office: Kent is very experienced, knowledgable and very pleasant . He is highly organized, very warm and is a very effective front office manager. I am so glad that he is back.

  • Lori Spano

This It's the greatest dentist office and the greatest dentist Dr Seo! I was losing a tooth (lower front incisor) that really showed and wasn't ready to make a decision on a bridge or implants.... And, didn't want to be missing the tooth in the meantime so he made me a temporary flipper that had a tooth in it! Just a quick impression, lab made it & yay I am happy. The entire staff are friendly & professional, they all work so well together in addition with the doctor to get a detailed, written estimate of the costs, up front for a plan going forward. They also take the time to go through it with you and answer any questions. From walking in to their office, they greet you and don't make you wait. You can enjoy the view from the 11th floor and I like to brush my teeth before sitting in the dental chair and their bathroom is fabulous, ha!

  • jasmine marti

Thank goodness for them! I had an emergency on an observed holiday. My front tooth was knocked out and I was so upset and frantic trying to find a place, and then worrying about how long after my initial visit they would be able fix it, because HOW EMBARRASSING!! They saw me asap without accepting my insurance but they made the Financials stress free and it didn't seem like their priority. They gave me options and gave me a temporary fix on the spot that took a few hours, no dentist I have ever been too has given me that kind of service or attention. I am 1000% thankful to the doctor and staff! I walked out feeling so much better, I ended up crying on my way down the elevator because I was so relieved and thankful. I would reccomend PDX Center for Dentistry to everyone and anyone for ALL of your dental needs.

  • Albert Flores

Came for the extreme toothache, stayed for the healing and amazing people!! When I called initially, I expressed my many fears and anxieties around dental work and the receptionist was very reassuring about how Dr. Seo and his staff would be exceptionally empathetic with my situation. Dr. Seo was absolutely awesome at communicating to me through every step of the process as I had a root canal and tooth extraction procedure done to relieve my pain. I was feeling immediately better after my initial procedure. I am rockin my new crown and I look forward to coming back in the future, not only for my dental health, but because their staff was so friendly and personable. Thank you to Dr. Seo and your entire staff for everything!!

  • Chris

I've had two appointments with Dr. Seo: One for cleaning and exam, and the other for working on three relatively tough cavities. I'm completely happy so far, and plan to stay with this practice. No pain, good and honest communication all around. Dr. Seo and his assistant worked efficiently and with obvious skill. It's a three-block walk from the downtown parking garage that they recommend (and provide validation for), so this might be an issue for some clients. The office is not sparkling new. But the dentistry seems great. Dentistry is expensive, and I don't have dental insurance. At first I felt like the estimate was high, but after watching all the work they did on me...after all, I felt like it was a pretty good deal.

  • Alex Dunne

Best dental care of my 60 + years. Even with pandemic still on, everyone in office made me feel safe, comfortable and cared for. Dr. Seo is a first class dentist and most fitting successor to Dr. Sundberg. Jerri is the very best dental hygienist I have ever had and just as skilled in personal, caring arts as well. I told her I thought a stalactite had grown on one of my molars because something there was sticking up I could not get rid of. Turns out there was a small crack which she smoothed out and made it disappear. If pain ever appears she quickly moves the tool to a safe place. Can't say enough positive things about her. Going to the dentist is no longer a day to fear.

  • Jordan Rigby

This was by far the best dental experience I've ever had! I was visiting from out of town, and I ended up breaking half of a front tooth at a hockey game. The next morning I called PDX Center for Dentistry. Fortunately, they were able to fit me in that same day for an appointment within hours of calling. As soon as I arrived, everyone at the office was incredibly friendly and helpful. Dr. Seo assessed my situation with confidence and directness. He took the time to carefully fit a temporary tooth that honestly looked better than the original! I highly recommend this dentist to anyone in the Portland area who has dental needs!

  • Gary Alessi

I was able to get an emergency temporary filling replacement at PDX Dental facility during a recent trip to Portland, Oregon I was astounded and enormously thankful because it was literally a same day appointment on a Saturday!. Until now, I've never needed dental care anywhere other than my home city in the central coast of California. Dr. Seo, DMD, and his staff were friendly, efficient and skilled at what they each did for me. No pain, what so ever, including dealing with insurance. I'm sure I helped to cause them to work past closing that day, and yet they made me feel as if I was one of their regulars.

  • abby jones

i absolutely love everyone here. right when you walk in you are welcomed by the nicest person to ever exist, kent; who never fails to put a smile on your face. jerri is one of the most outgoing hygienists i’ve had and we always have great conversation, she makes me feel right at home- she cares about what i have to say and has the most smiley and warm personalities. dr. seo is so genuine and caring; he always goes above and beyond. i have never liked going to the dentist, but this place has made me feel so incredibly safe and comfortable- so much that i am no longer scared to go to the dentist but excited

  • Mat Shaffer

TRULY one of the best dentistry experiences I've EVER HAD - and I'm the grandson of a dentist, so that is some serious high praise! Gerry did a masterfully thorough job cleaning my teeth (lots of excellent hand-picking), and then Dr. Seo helped me personally by answering my dental questions and even doing a small amount of cosmetic filing of one of my main teeth after my cleaning was completed. WOW! Seriously, these folks have such great energy and are deeply committed to creating a great experience for their customers. If I wasn't moving next week, they would have absolutely earned my loyalty for LIFE!

  • Amanda Lunger

I found this office 3 years ago when I was looking for a conveniently located dentist office. A year later my insurance changed and I had to go somewhere else, but as soon as I got back into network I made a point to come back. Jerri is the BEST hygienist in Portland. So warm and thorough, she went above and beyond by researching my insurance to let me know I could get a cleaning every 3 months. It truly feels as if she is invested in my dental health! Dr. Seo is also very kind and approachable, and has done a great job making the transition from dr. Sundberg’s ownership comfortable and easy.

  • F Williams

Went in for a cleaning after two years without a dental visit (ugh, COVID). Gerri, the hygienist, numbed up my gums with some lidocaine and proceeded to give me the most thorough cleaning of my life! Thankfully, no cavities or other issues. The price was very reasonable: a full set of x-rays and a deep cleaning came in at less than $125. By comparison, my husband went to his regular dentist today, too, and for a less thorough cleaning, he paid $300, and that didn’t include x-rays. Suffice it to say PDX Center for Dentistry is awesome and I highly recommend them for all of your dental needs!

  • Jack Collins

I had a great experience at Sundberg dental. I had a few appointments over the course of a couple weeks, and each one was prompt, professional, and friendly. Kent, who works the front desk, was insanely cool, and we had some really cool discussions while I was waiting. Dr. Sundberg was very easy to get along with, and I could really tell that she loves what she does. The work itself was great, and they communicated very effectively about what I should expect, how much I should be ready to pay, and what I should do in the future. I see no reason to shop around for other dentistries.

  • zach beckett

I have nothing but great things to say about PDX Center for Dentistry! I’ve been going to Dr. Sam for several years now and he is a true professional. Very personable, knowledgeable, he’s fluent in 3 languages, and has a super gentle touch(which is most important to me because I’m kind of a baby and I fear dental work). The entire staff is friendly, very helpful in explaining the ins and outs, the hygienists are wonderful, and they all really do care about your comfort and well being. I definitely recommend trying them out. 10 out of 10 :)

  • Sean Holbrook

Had some dental work done by Dr.Samuel Seo today. I can confirm to everyone reading, this is who you want to give you that great smile. He is honest, holds himself and his staff to the highest standards in regards to quality work. His integrity, honesty and kindness is something special. He explains the process for every step so you are not lost on what is going on. He always has a smile on his face and you can tell that this is not just his job, this is his passion. I promise you, once you come here you will not go anywhere else.

  • Ronica Alexander

I have nothing but positive things to say about this location. I was here when Dr. Sundberg worked here, and was happy to see that the experience was just as good if not better when Dr. Seo took over. Everyone on this team is highly dedicated to patient care and comfort, and I am confident in their skills and capabilities. As much as I don't like being at the dentist, I always leave here feeling like they truly cared about making sure I was taken care of (and mimosas and Netflix are an added bonus!). I appreciate this team!!

  • Danielle Brunette

Dr. Seo and Sia are fantastic!!!!! They squeezed me in for a last minute emergency and saved me! I was in so much tooth pain and was having no luck anywhere in Portland because of the holiday but was having an emergency. They fixed me up immediately the day before Thanksgiving and I wasn’t even a current patient. Truly they made my holiday! I would recommend anyone to them. They were also extremely communicative about my options and what they were doing the entire time. Five stars to this wonderful team

  • John Moody

As a patient with Dr. Seo's new dental practice, he and his team so far are outstanding! Dr. Seo was very helpful in explaining his observations, answering my questions, and providing recommendations to consider during his exam. He seems very competent, is a straight shooter, and not a salesman. Jerri the dental hygienist has been helping me for years, does a consistently excellent job, and is very knowledgeable. Emily at the front desk is a new addition and very client service focused. I'll be returning! :-)

  • Anthony Earley

Without a doubt this is the best decision I've made when selecting Dr. Sam Seo as a dentist. From Kent to the hygienist to the Dr. everyone was so warm and accomodating. Very professional. Every thing in comments about this dental team are absolutely truthful. Care and consideration of how "I" was doing during the entire procedure was very evident . I'm actually looking forward to continued work from PDX Dental. And absolutely no pain the next day from the oral surgery. Words cannot express my thanks

  • Evelyn Chan

I love Gerri the hygienist!! She is delightful and clearly very invested and skilled in what she does. I've never had my teeth hand-scaled so meticulously in my life. She did a deep cleaning when I first visited early 2019, and I've been looking forward to my regular visits ever since (no kidding, I really do) because I feel assured of my dental health. I haven't had any procedures done by Dr Seo, but he checks in quickly at the end of each regular cleaning and I've no doubt I'm in good hands.

  • R. Jones

I've seen Dr. Seo a couple of times now. He is very friendly, he listens to and accommodates my concerns and he is very skilled. His assistant, Kim, is also very friendly and fun to chat with. I had an odd-shaped incisor, which also started to crack. He designed a crown for me and it looks fantastic. He matched the size and shape of the opposite incisor and it looks so much better than I thought it could. He also placed an implant crown for me. I highly recommend Dr. Seo and this office.

  • Scott jones

I'd highly recommend Dr. Seo's office. I booked my first visit last week and was able to get in quickly. Within a day of making the booking, the office called back and confirmed that my insurance would cover the appointment. They went the extra mile to make sure that I wouldn't have to pay out of pocket. I had my first appointment today and the cleaning was very thorough. Dr. Seo explained the future dental work that I'd need in a very clear manner. I'm really happy with the whole team.

  • Carl Anderson

Doctor Seo and his amazing and talented crew are the best of the best! Professional, patient,caring,honest and dedicated. If you want quality care for your smile,you need to call them up let them take care of you. I trust them to always do what is right and make me feel great in the process. Please give them a call and let them take care of you and your smile! Thank you Doctor Seo,Jeri,Emily,Sia and Kent! We are so lucky to have found you! Happy patient, Carl Anderson

  • Stephanie Paley LMT

I receive excellent care with Dr. Seo and Dental Hygienist Jerry. I've been a patient here for years, and I wouldn't go anywhere else. This office is personable, full of kindness, and the best skill/talent for dental services. Going in for routine care isn't at the top of the list for relaxation, but I always leave feeling healthy and clean! Routine dental care is so important to our overall health, and I fully trust PDX Center for Dentistry to help me stay healthy.

  • Wade Worthington

I highly recommend Dr.Seo and his crew. They are very personable and have always done a great job for me. It is such a comfort to know you have the right people working on your teeth when you are sitting in that dentist chair. Jerri the dental hygienist is the very best at cleaning teeth. If you are like me, someone dealing with gum recession, you can do yourself a huge favor by receiving her cleanings. PDX Center for Dentistry is 5 star service all around!

  • Jennifer Apple

I started at this location with Dr. Sundberg, and while I think she was a good dentist, I didn’t click with her. I was planning on changing practices, but when Dr. Seo and staff came on, I gave them a shot. I’m glad I did. The entire staff is friendly and efficient; Jerri, the hygienist is still there and she is amazing, and I’ve never had to wait more than a couple of minutes to be seen. Dr. Seo is personable, patient, and very competent. Highly recommend.

  • Dan McNair

Dr. Samuel Seo and his staff are awesome. From the hygienists and assistants to the front desk staff everyone is very good. I really appreciate their friendliness and thoroughness. When I leave from a cleaning my mouth actually feels clean! (Thank you Jeri!) I have had several visits since he took over the practice and am very happy with the transition. I am willing to recommend Dr. Seo to a friend or family member so I can recommend him to you.

  • Wesley Bateman

I am recommending this dentist! Not only do you walk in on the making for mimosas, but the staff at the front desk are so helpful and very personable! The dental hygienist I had for my first apportionment didn't come off judgemental when discussing flossing habits and she cleaned my teeth most efficiently. The new doctor, Dr. Seo, while young is knowledgeable, speaks multiple languages, and treats you like YOU matter, not just your pocketbook.

  • Ashley

I was so glad to find this dentist and they got me in right away. I’m not originally from the area and have a lot of dentist anxiety. This practice was so kind and understanding, I felt very at ease. Dr. Seo was very informative and thorough, explained everything on the X-rays. The front desk and hygienists are the nicest I have ever dealt with. Amazing prices and wonderful programs for those of us uninsured. Highly recommend!

  • Aisha Hedden

Absolutely refreshing experience! Awesome crew!! My mouth and teeth were healthy, happy and pretty when I left. Dr. Soe is technical, detail oriented, preventative, gentle and delivers great communication. I am still bragging about my amazing dental hygienist, she is honest and the best to ever clean my teeth(I keep my grill clean, she raises the bar) and the front desk is empathetic, prepared, extremely organized. Thank you!

  • Erik Dewhurst

Dr. Sam Seo is absolutely the best dentist I've worked with. And Jeri is the best Hygienist I've work with. I'm not a fan of numbing and Dr. Seo is skilled enough to replace sealants without numbing. He's easily the fastest and most considerate dentist I've experienced. Bottom line: I've been with him since he took over this office and I walk out of every appointment happy. I highly recommend Dr. Seo.

  • thoughtography

Dr. Seo and his team helped me out with some major tooth pain and got me scheduled and in the office in no time. They're very friendly and were able to get me feeling better and put together a plan of action to get my whole mouth fixed up. The office is very conveniently located downtown and makes the whole experience much more pleasurable. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a good dentist.

  • SHINICHIRO INAJI (UCHA)

Dr. Seo is the best dentist in my life. He explained the procedures very clearly with kindness and no pressure, and his practice is very smooth with craftsmanship good hand. The care and support of nurse Sea and the hospitality of receptionist Kent are also creating a welcoming and comfortable environment. Thank you so much, I am so much happier with better condition of my mouth!

  • Alexa Rosato

After having a bit of difficulty finding a dentist in the Portland area, I was so happy to find PDX Center for Denistry. The staff was proactive, kind, compassionate and incredibly thorough. It is not often that a visit to the dentist is the highlight of your day but that was exactly the case here. Looking forward to working with the friendly staff here in the future!

  • Kasee Alesi

This place is Amazing! I give 100% thumbs up experience. It had been an incredibly LONG time since I had visited the dentist- The ENTIRE staff, Dentist, and Hygienist We’re all super friendly and put me to ease with my much delayed dental visit and cleaning. This is a solid no nonsense dental establishment with a great group of individuals to serve your dental needs.

  • C S

The staff here is great and they do the best work I've had, from crowns to fillings and cleanings. Things were good when Dr. Sundberg owned the practice but things have felt smoother since Dr. Seo took over. I was especially happy to see that Jerri (hygienist+) stayed on. She does the best cleanings ever. Great new additions to the team, too, like Nancy and others.

  • Jesse Evans

Such a fantastic practice. My wife set this up for me and unfortunately I had to visit several times over the next few weeks because I had postponed going anywhere. The office is very well done, the staff is all friendly and remembers your name. The doctor was able to explain everything necessary. A great experience. Oh, and there’s mimosas in the front room...

  • Allison Turi

Such a great experience! I was never crazy about my dentist on the east coast and dreaded my visits. So I’m very happy to have found this place after moving to Portland. It’s great to no longer have anxiety about going to the dentist! Everyone was so friendly and my cleaning was very thorough. It was truly the best experience I’ve had so far. Thank you!

  • Adam Vanhee

A fantastic experience all around! I’ve had my fair share of dental visits that have been good, but from the moment you walk into this office the visit is outstanding. From the friendly and professional front desk, to experiencing the greatest cleaning of my life, and finally the professional and communicative doctor this dental office is top notch.

  • Daniel Lenski

I've been going here for years, first with Dr. Sundberg and now Dr. Seo… and I've had the same hygienist the whole time. Everyone is friendly, thorough, well-organized, helpful at explaining things, careful about explaining costs of things that aren't covered by insurance, and they've been taking good care of my teeth. I'm a very satisfied patient!

  • Adam Brittle

PDX Center for Dentistry squeezed me in on really short notice for a toothache. Their entire staff was friendly, and I was not kept waiting at all. Though I hadn't been there before, they have a very modern-feeling office which felt exceptionally organized and comfortable, which inspired confidence. I'm happy to recommend with a great experience.

  • Dawn Summers

What a fantastic experience. I felt right at home the moment i called for the first appointment. It was so nice to be able to get right in and have my teeth cleaned on the same day. The hygienist was awesome. So thorough; my teeth feel great. Dr.Seo was calm, kind and answered all of my questions clearly. I would highly recommend this office.

  • Antonio Arocho

The receptionist and dentist are great. Detailed, welcoming, and very friendly. Very attentive and warm. The hygienist, while they probably did a great job, it quickly turned into an uncomfortable experience with the misguided personal opinions. While at the end apologized, it was not a good fit for me, hence the 3 stars.

  • Nadia Ourchane-Abston

I really love this place! The staff are all wonderful - from reception, to the hygienists, to Dr. Seo. My last dental experience out-of-state was terrible, so PDX Center for Dentistry really turned it around for me. They make you feel very comfortable and it's the least painful visit to the dentist you'll ever have.

  • Genesis Ballard

Everyone here is very nice and do what they can to make you feel comfortable. I have a lot of dental work that I need done and I was visibly upset about it. Everyone at this dentistry made sure I knew that they’d work with me on payment and getting me back to good health. I would definitely recommend this dentistry!

  • Emily Burke

It's always hard to say goodbye to a trusted doctor, and we will miss Dr. Sundberg. But Dr. Sam is fantastic! Thoughtful, efficient and making the transition feel totally seamless. The office is still beautiful, the staff still caring and friendly, and the service is still five star! Thank you guys for your care!

  • Laura B

Dr. Sundberg and her team are fantastic! My teeth have never been more clean and healthy thanks to Jerri. The work Dr. Sundberg has performed on me has been quick and looks beautiful. I always feel welcomed by everyone at the office. I've been a happy patient for a few years now. Really happy to have found them.

  • Amanda Gilmore

Dr. Seo is friendly, patient and very skilled at communicating the options for dental treatment and what to expect when planning a procedure. His front office and hygienist staff are also amazing. The office is comfortable and friendly, and conveniently located downtown. I can't recommend Dr. Seo highly enough.

  • Toby Minton

Sundberg treated me like a friend from beginning to end. From a call to welcome me the night before my appointment, to greeting me by name when I walked in, to educating me about issues in the friendliest possible way...they went above and beyond. Best dentist experience I’ve ever had, hands down.

  • Sarah Fishman

I have a lot of trauma and fear around the dentist and this place makes me less scared. I was having the worst pain of my life and they really came through for me, getting me an appointment and relief within hours. Everyone from the front desk people to the dentist was great and really comforting.

  • Danielle L

I had a new patient exam and cleaning yesterday. Everyone at the office was very friendly and welcoming! The hygienist did a very thorough cleaning. The doctor was very knowledgeable and communicated clearly. The office has options for patients without dental insurance which is very helpful

  • Kevyn C

Great experience all around. Scheduling was easy, the front desk guy is the absolute best, my cleaning was thorough and very affordable (even without dental insurance), the hygienist and doctor were both knowledgeable, efficient and very nice. Look forward to going back in 6 months :)

  • Moshe Bressler

Dr. Seo is an outstanding dentist who provides exceptional care to his patients. He is highly knowledgeable, patient, and understanding, and he takes the time to explain all of your treatment options in detail. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a top-notch dental experience!

  • Jessica Robinson

Great experience. Jeri has been cleaning my teeth for years and she's amazing. She does a very thorough clean. I also really appreciate Dr. Sam's calm demeanor, he's to the point but is also very gentle in his approach with the patient. It helps ease the dental anxiety a lot.

  • Kayla Voorhees

My husband and I am so impressed with Dr. Seo and the staff at PDX Center for Dentistry. Everyone is so friendly and personable and we absolutely trust their work! I have had my teeth cleaned by Jerri, several times, and I just love her! Very impressed with everyone there.

  • Matthew Carroll

I've been going to PDX Center for Dentistry for over a decade. Dr. Seo took over during the pandemic. He is warm, professional, responsive and attentive and that has translated to his staff as well. I actually look forward to going to the dentist, which is very weird.

  • coco feller

I would highly recommend Sundberg Dental to any of my friends or family. They are great, friendly and very good at what they do! This has been the best dental experience of my life. No more anxiety for me when going to the dentist. I'll never go anywhere else.

  • Tyler Lawrence

Excellent experience!!! Hands down one of the best dentists I’ve been to. All of the staff is super nice and everyone was very thorough in their explanations and made sure that I felt comfortable. I highly recommend it and sincerely want to thank everyone. :)

  • Shea Hunter

Dr. Seo, Jerri the hygienist, and all of the wonderful ladies in the office have the best bedside manner and continually find ways to put me at ease through any procedure. The cleanings are thorough and the procedures quick and easy. Definitely recommended!

  • Matie Mullendore

Yesterday was my second time seeing Dr. Seo and it went great! He and his staff always make sure to completely fill me in on what is happening at the time and to check-in and make sure that I am comfortable throughout. Great team and great dental practice.

  • Stephanie Lewis

Great appointment. They gave me sunglasses to shield the light from my eyes. Dentist also made sure I was fully numb before extracting my tooth. He also gave me more hope about saving my teeth than the last dentist I saw. Overall great place.

  • Heather Blaine

Had a filling redone in late December- persistent tooth sensitivity from procedure. Dr. Seo got me in quickly -looked and made a few adjustments. I can already feel the difference. Great care and concern with this practice. The best people!

  • Nicholas Schlabach

Genuinely the best experience I’ve have had at a dentist. From setting up the appointment with Kirk, a total gem, to the dental tech that took the time to listen to everything I had to say and even relate to it. The doctor was empathetic

  • Obaid Khan

I had the most phenomenal experience at this dentistry. From the front desk, to the hygienist, to the doctor, everyone was remarkable. I was referred to this location by a very good friend of mine and I’m so glad she did. They explained

  • C R

I am so grateful to find Dr. Seo! He is the best and has gone beyond the requirements for reopening since COVID 19. I travel from the Oregon Coast for my dental care because of his care. Every step of the experience was great from Emily

  • Megan Harrelson

I cannot say enough positive things about Jerri, the dental hygienist. Growing up, preventative care was unheard of and it had been years since I'd visited a dentist office. Jerri was open, honest, comforting, and very professional

  • Olga Kislinska

Dr Sam is great! He is kind, calm, and very good at breaking down any issues I may have. Also their hygienist Jerri is a hoot! I love coming in for my cleanings to catch up. I had been a patient for many years. Love this practice.

  • Andrew Jennings

by far the best dentist i have ever been to in my life. was kinda worried about getting shots. they numbed it with cream before the shots and it helped quite a bit with the pain where very friendly and just all around awesome!

  • Nicole Mitchell

They're always so nice and personable! They always recognize me right away and feel so welcoming and unintimadating. Plus the free toothbrushes are pretty sturdy and high quality, which I think is very important in a dentist.

  • Timisha Wilson

Very good first trip to this dentist, he was friendly and patient with us, caught all the areas to be treated and has decent pricing as well. Great staff, office location is downtown but they validate parking at smart park.

  • Kiesha Locklear

Dr. Seo is always very communicative and his staff is always so helpful and accommodating. He doesn’t take my new work insurance but I kept additional insurance so I would be able to still see him. Great Service. Period.

  • Eric Mullendore

Dr. Seo and his staff are always thorough, efficient, and easy to work with. They are straightforward about treatment plans and the associated costs. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else in Portland for dental care.

  • Gio

Sam Seo and his team were so friendly and the appointment felt quick and painless. I procrastinated going back to the dentist for 4 years, but now I feel comfortable coming back for a follow up every 6 months.

  • Megan Breitigam

Very professional. Great education provided by Dr. Seo and excellent care from his team. I especially appreciated Kent at the front desk that explained my insurance benefits to me. Overall great experience.
