Dr. Niven T Tien

I was really scared & nervous because of past experiences with dentists.But my oral surgeon Dr. Tien reassured me everything would be fine. I have never came out of a dentist office wanting to smile,but because of my procedure I couldn't smile two thumbs up Dr.Tien you're the best I would let him work on my mouth any time.I live over an hour away from office but it was well worth the trip & I would do it again.You have a pleasant staff & I thank everyone involved.

This might be a good place to get dental work done, but only if money is no object, and clear and consistent communication is no object either. What I was told orally about billing and insurance never matched what actually happened. I was given an estimate in which I was supposed to pay 2700 dollars, and insurance would cover another 1000. It was surprising to me that I’d have to pay so much out of pocket, since I had two active dental insurance policies. But orally, they reassured me that this was the official estimate, but probably a larger chunk would be reimbursed. After the procedure, weeks passed…I heard nothing about a refund. I looked at my insurance statements online, and saw that even less was covered than the estimate. I called the DC Surgical Arts Office, and got vague reassurances that they had to wait and see, and it often took months. Before my appointment to check on the procedure, I still had gotten no refund, so I sent a lengthy email asking for clarification of my bi

Technically a good dentist. However, billing is terrible and his pay schedule is at least double the normal. You have to prepay them first, and they will claim they will reimburse you once they get paid from the insurance. So far I haven't got reimbursed after 3 months. It was 1000 dollars per wisdom tooth CASH.

Deplorable , wanted to be paid in advance , price outrageous , very unprofessional , I left without Being treated . Bethesda , md.

Dr. Tien provided me with a year of care for a tooth extraction and implant. My outcome is excellent and I couldn't have asked for better treatment. Dr. Tien is an expert oral surgeon and very personable and caring, always making sure I was comfortable and procedures were painless, and patiently answering any questions. I could always trust his expertise and skill. Thanks to Dr. Tien and his team, my oral surgery & implant experience was actually pleasant! I always knew I was in the best hands.

BUYER beware: Dr Tien's fee schedule was actually more than double a comparable practice. Unfortunately, you will be charged hundreds of dollars just meeting with them before you will understand their charges. I am sure they are competent clinically, but for routing matters if you want better value, shop around. I had other issues with the practice, but the tipping point was cost. I learned the hard way. $290 to cancel his services once learning their fee structure and meeting with them.
