Tran Charlie DDS

Went to Dr. Tran via a recommendation from a friend and she was right — he is a great dentist. Staff is very attentive and friendly.

I went to Dr. Tran for many years and had no problems. Back in 2008 he rebonded my front tooth which I had broken when I was a kid. It looked beautiful. A few years after that the bonding began to form a crack and was beginning to get stained. I decided to get it bonded again to make it look better. WORST MISTAKE EVER… There were many things I was not told prior to him rebonding the tooth. I was not told he would have to file it down or that rebounding may not be a good choice on an already weak tooth. During the filling process I had a moment of extreme pain in the tooth. I have had horrible pain in my tooth ever since. I have been back to him many times to see if he can fix it and every time he would suggest a different reason for the pain (maybe the tooth is dying, maybe you need a root canal, etc.) The only thing he didn’t say ever was maybe I did the bonding wrong. I never had pain in all the years after I initially chipped it. It was only after the last time he bonded it. All I hope is that someday I will find a doctor that can fix it so I no longer have pain.

I have never been to a dentist in my life where pain wasn’t a significant element. As a result, I usually put it off until something goes wrong, and the cycle renews. Until today! Until I met Dr. Tran. I actually left the office after 3 fillings with a smile on my face. No pain, no stress, just gentleness and understanding. His staff is welcoming and helpful. And Dr. Tran is just a delight. I think I’ve found my dentist for life!

What I admire most is that all parts of the office are very professional and working seemlessly, which reflects the high standards that are set there.
The front office is super friendly, Mila has great communication skills and is very sweet. My bi-​annual check-​ups /​cleaning are also done very well.
I love Dr. Tran’s gentle hand, high level of professionalism and doing what is best for the patient. Whatever he has done was done and still «works» very well. He is not pushy and not trying to sell any unnecessary services. What I appreciate most of all is the consideration and understanding the pateint — be it a pillow under the neck or swiping vaseline to the overdried lips when you are unable to speak with all the tools in your mouth. Coming to Dr. Tran’s office is like coming to a friend’s house. I’ve refered many colleagues and heard no complaints so far.

Best dentist ever. I have been terrified of the dentist my entire life but started going to Dr. Tran late 2012 because I wanted to start Invisalign. I had to go thru multiple rounds of various work before I could start Invisalign and he was wonderful with everything. I am now three months into the Invisalign treatment and couldn’t be happier with the serivce I get in this office.

Charlie has been our family dentist for a long time. My husband lived on the east coast before he met me on the west coast and since we got engaged, we have gone to Charlie together for our dental needs. Thats right, where most people avoid the dentist (im guilty of it too !) we actually came to DC from TX to see him.
His staff is polite, helpful and accommodating. Charlie hi mself, is a sweet man, who is always ready to discuss the world with you while efficiently attending to your dental needs.
He is the dentist that makes me want to take care of teeth better. He is still the dentist i go to DC for despite living in MD. Yup, I will brave public transport lol so needless to say, you should make him your dentist.
