Insurance and Coverage

Denti-Cal: Confirmed Yes. Confirmed in the state's fee for service provider listing, enrolled since 1999
Medi-Cal plan type: Fee for service. Medi-Cal dental also runs through managed care plans in Sacramento and Los Angeles counties, and the state list we check does not cover those. If you are on a dental plan card rather than plain Medi-Cal, ask the office whether they take your plan.
Other insurance: Not known. This list is built around Medi-Cal dental, so it does not track private plans. Ask the office which ones they take.

Map and directions

Dr. Nguyen and his team are absolutely incredible! From the moment I called, I was met with kindness and understanding. A huge shoutout to Favi and Melody (apologies if I misspelled your names) for their warmth and professionalism.
I called on today (Saturday), early afternoon, in a panic—I had broken my front tooth and had no idea what to do. I was in shock, but Melody handled my call with such compassion, reassuring me and somehow squeezed me in the same day.
Dr. Nguyen is truly a master of his craft. He made me feel completely at ease and somehow made my tooth look even better than before! The office has such a welcoming atmosphere, and the level of personal attention they give is rare. I never once felt like just another patient or price tag.
I am beyond grateful for Dr. Nguyen and his amazing team. If you’re looking for a skilled, caring, and all-around incredible dentist in the Valley, look no further—Dr. Nguyen is the one to see!

I'm so grateful a friend referred me to Dr. Nguyen! He goes out of his way to ensure your comfort. I've had fillings, a root canal, a tooth extraction, and an implant as his patient, and I don't even feel nervous when I have an appointment because I know I'm in good care. It's a small office, so you always get his individual attention, and his staff is lovely and helpful. I highly recommend this dental office!

Questions People Ask

Does Dr. Tu Minh Nguyen take Denti-Cal?

Yes. This dentist appears in the state's published list of enrolled Denti-Cal providers. Taking the coverage and having an opening are two different things, so still call ahead.

How do I make an appointment?

Call (818) 993-1369 and say you have Medi-Cal dental. Or use the form on this page. Your request goes to the office if it takes requests here, and to our team if it does not. Nobody else gets it.

What will it cost me?

For most Denti-Cal covered treatment there is no copay. If the office suggests something the program does not cover, ask for the price in writing before you agree.
