Reviews of A Downtown Dental Group
My husband and a friend are patients a the Dental Group, and I was planning to make an appointment to go with them, but I didn't. Suddenly I had an emergency and I went to ask for help and they graciously took me. They found the time to see me even though they were very busy. Everybody there was friendly and caring.
First impression is very important and certainly, I was impressed to see how professional and organized they were running their business. I have an appointment to go back next week and I'm looking forward to see them again and experience their care.
If you don't have a dentist yet , go to see them you might find what you were looking for.

From the first phone call to my first visit was nothing I had ever experienced with any doctor. Meg and Dr. Wilfred made me feel special and really listened to my dental needs. They really care about you as an individual and are willing to work with you to achieve your dental goals. I look forward to my future appointments and look forward to smiling again!!!! Thank you also to his wonderful staff for being so nice!!!
From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with such warmth and friendly smiles from the entire staff. Everything from helping me with where to park to completing my New Patient forms along with being offered a Complementary beverage was very impressive.
Dr. Miyasaki and his entire staff truly made me feel so special, I’ve never have received such great service with such competence. Thank You!!!
Wish I knew about A Downtown Dental Group earlier in my lifetime. Dr. Miyasaki and staff are awesome! Compassionate, sincere and caring. I live in Ewa Beach and I don’t mind the travel time, it’s worth it. In my eyes their the best dental office on the island!
The level of compassion and patience in Dr W. Miyazaki was unparalleled! The office is well staffed and knowledgeable in their respective areas. I’ll say this, it’s so refreshing to be treated with kindness. My fears and anxiety’s were gone! Replaced with calmness
My “handler” dental assistant, was exceptionally sweet. She had the demeanor of a saint! Thank you The Downtown Dental Group. I even received a gift from the good Dr himself .A long stemmed red rose and a promotional item that included a toothbrush and water bottle! I’ll be returning to have my smile restored for sure.
Dr. Miyasaki is the best. No matter what kind of dental work I needed, he is on it!
Thank you Dr. Miyasaki! Also, thanks to his Dental Assistance and to his Hygienist Verna. And to Julia and Darleen - many Thanks!
Once again I'm satisfied with the excellent work that was done. I recently finished up my last appointment and all my major dental work is finally done. Excellent service and like always staff welcomed me and greeted me with Aloha. Next up is my annual cleaning and I look forward to it. I would definetly recommend Dr. Miyasaki and his well trained professional staff to anyone. Thank you and Aloha!
Friendly, positive energy and respectful. Remy was extremely attentive and just the best. In fact the staff was professional and just had a positive vibe that it’s hard to describe, you have to experience it yourself. My gosh they served water and ice coffee. Heck they gave me a free gift.
Very friendly and welcoming environment. They made me feel comfortable and provided me with useful knowledge pertaining to my dental health. Thanks for taking care of me there🤙🏽 …
Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki and his wonderful team (Julia, Darleen, Remy, Meg, Verna & others) are caring, kind, professional and efficient! They make what could be stressful, a pleasant experience. Recommend them highly!
Everyone at this office is so nice! Both Dr.’s Miyasaki and Dr. David are soft spoken and quite gentle with your care. That’s a good thing because seeing dentists are usually stressful for me. The staff is super friendly too. The dental work is excellent and they make sure you’re satisfied with the outcome. Your smile is in good hands at Downtown Dental Group.
I have a hard time getting into downtown because I caregive full time but I enjoy the happiness shared by certain gals and know the kindness in their smiles and even the doctor He seems kind n everything really has me booking to return I share Sincerely I’m satisfied and appreciate Happy Blessed Thanksgiving!;)
I think my last dentist visit before Dr.Miyasaki was 10 years ago, and I’ve always have bad experiences with past dentists. In that 10 years, my teeth went from bad to worse and I knew it was time to finally see one.
I’ve asked coworkers, friends, checked online reviews, and I came across Dr. Miyazaki’s dental clinic reviews. I read all of the reviews, and also looked at photos of him and his staff. Everyone on the photos looked very nice and kind, so I’ve decided to visit the Downtown dental office.
On the first day of the visit, my heart was pounding and I was very nervous. Despite the my nervousness, everyone, from the receptionist to the assistant, was very nice and kind. They were very easy to talk to, and made me relax.
When Dr. Miyasaki came into the room, my first impression of him was very nice. He’s soft spoken and gentle. When he looked at my X-ray, he replied, “Yes, I can help you!”
When I heard that, I just burst into tears…
When my treatment started, I was so impressed with the anesthesia! I didn’t feel anything, which never happened before, it was not hurting at all! Amazing!
A few visits later, I am now finished with my teeth restorations (if you will) and I am beyond satisfied, and thankful for Dr. Miyasaki!
He is a very skilled and gentle dentist!
I really wish I met him earlier in my life so that I didn’t have to wait so long…but it’s never too late!
I thank God for leading me to the best dentist in Hawaii, and will continue to visit him!
My dentist-visit phobia is gone!
If you are reading my review, trust me, this review is from bottom of my heart, and my actual experience with Dr. Miyasaki.
You will not be regret to see and experience Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki!
The overall staff are very friendly, very positive energy, prompt and attentive, truly professionals in the various duties they do. The Dental Hygienists & Techs are a glass of their own level of professionalism, above the average graduate. They understand more science, physiology, and pathology than most Dentists I know. Dr. Miyasaki, a busy guy tending to a high need, high patient load, was prompt, brief but very detailed, clear and practical. Money doesn't motivates him but the quality of service and helping patients and provide for his staff. The meritorious award of America's Best Dentists is well deserved. They care - all of them.
Right up to date of my mini implants, I was worried. Everything went smooth like butter. Megan put me at ease conversing. I actually forgot what I was there to get done. She relaxed me so much I made the doctor wait to finish my sentence. Dr. Miyasaki has such a soft, gentle demeanor. It was worth the flight over, the hotel, the car rental, and the meals. Dr. Miyasaki Isn't just good @ what he does, he participates w/HDS and my other insurance. I'm going back to Honl in 2 mos. To have crowns put on.
Mahalo nui Dr. Miyasaki!
My appt today was a longer one as expected. Needless to say, it was a pleasant experience despite the length of time spent in the chair. Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki and his dental assistant were cognizant of how I felt throughout and at the same time, they remained focused to have my teeth worked on.
I had not seen a dentist since Covid-19 came about, but after he had numbed my gums and began to service my teeth, I felt no pain at all! What a Godsent moment!! My confidence for his performance went up 100%! Usually I would start off by getting "white knuckle" tense, however not at all today!
I look forward to my future appointments without fear. Thank you for your genuine care.
Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki is my dentist and Remy is my hygienist they're really caring and sweet. They always make sure im comfortable. I would recommend them 100%. I'm so thankful for them. 💜 …
I love everything about A Downtown Dental Group! I’ve always had small sized teeth and have wanted to enhance my smile with porcelain veneers for a very long time. I decided this was going to be the year. After lots of research and consulting with several different dentists, I decided to go with Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki and I’m so glad that I did! He was so friendly from the first meeting and seemed to really listen and understand my concerns. Dr. Miyasaki delivered just what I wanted. Being able to smile confidently is something I was never able to do but Dr. Miyasaki has changed that for me. It was the BEST investment and worth every penny! The entire team here is also amazing. The front office staff is so friendly and welcoming as soon as you enter. The assistants and hygienists in the back are so helpful and make you feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I appreciate each and every one of them. I have already referred my family and friends to this office. Thank you Dr. Miyasaki for giving me my new smile!
Enjoyed my appointment with Janet, my dental hygienist! Was greeted by Julia and Darlene at the front with their smiling faces! Their restroom, waiting room, and dental rooms are super clean! Came in mainly for teeth cleaning and x-rays with Janet, everything went really well, I’m so happy to have Janet, she’s so patient and she’s so cool! Looking forward to my next appointment in February ‘23! Overall- another 5 star rating, again! Thank you Dr. Miyazaki, Janet, Julia and Darlene for a great experience at a awesome place!
Overall it was a great experience. Remy made me feel really comfortable and took the time to get to know me. I look forward to my next visits 😁 …
Janet is an awesome dental hygienist. She's very thorough and explained everything so I could understand the reason & cost of services needed and it's value/benefit. Janet is highly proficient and even though it's been years since my last visit, she was never condescending. I'm very thankful for her recommendations to get me back on track to good dental health.
Although I was prepared for pain due to my hiatus from dental care, Janet masterfully cleaned without ever causing me discomfort. Even the x-rays were totally painless. They have new equipment that doesn't require you to intensely bite down on painful cards that jam into the roof your mouth and gums. I highly recommend Janet and was thrilled with my first visit back to the dentist.
Very caring , fast for the amount of work being done! , no judgement , no down time, only a little discomfort afterwards, and the quality of work done is excellent!!
The staff, hygienist and Dr. David and Dr. Wilfred are the best in being courteous and considerate. I have been going to this office for over 40 years and always have been given the best service ever. My hygienist is Verna and she been taking care of by teeth since i have been going to the A Downtown Dental Group. Since Dr. David took over, I am very happy. He is very professional and courteous. The office staff, Darlene and Julie, is always friendly. My adult children also goes to them.
Ever since my first experience with Dr. Miyasaki and his staff it was always welcoming in a very comfortable environment. I’m a scaredy-cat when it comes to the dentist but they always made sure that I was okay with whatever was going on at the time. Dr. Miyasaki tries to squeeze in consultations at the time of services instead of you coming back to where your next visit will be your actual visit to get the work done. Love their process!!!
I was really surprised how first you walked in to Dr Miyasaki dental office, everyone was putting their best outfit! They were all wearing masks, working hard, underneath the masks, from their facial expressions, they are smiling while talking or greeting us,or on the phone! That’s was really amazing! Verna was doing her best, to clean up my teeth after 2 Yrs, due to Covid, I was very hesitant to go any visit, including my annual, Mamogram, eye check up, my family doctor unless for the flu shot I was encouraged to go. Very good to see Dr Miyasaki dropping with his mask on, yet checking my teeth all along! Mahalo for continue doing best, stay professional, and keeping us safe at all costs!
I was a little nervous going into the doctor's office for the 1st time but I ammediately felt comfortable and very welcomed when I went in. everybody was so friendly. And doctor David Miyasaki Was very thorough in his examination and I felt gave me a fair price for the work he is about to do. I felt very comfortable with him and noticed that he had many plaques on the wall, as the best dentist in Honolulu. Looking forward to my dental work with him and count it as a privilege to be under his care.
I have not been to a dentist in many years and my teeth and smile showed it, I was missing a tooth and over the years my teeth had shifted and the spaces between them were widening. I finally decided I needed to do what Iʻve wanted to for so long. I had seen Dr. Miyasakisʻ ad in the newspaper years ago and told myself the next time I saw it I would make the move and call the office. That was the best decision I made. That was just over 3 months ago, and what a transformation it has been. I am so happy with my new veneers! I smile much bigger and more often now and not trying to hold my smile back.
Dr. Miyasaki is an excellent dentist, very professional and most important to me he is an authentic person. In every interaction Iʻve had with him from consultation to completion of each service I could tell he is at the top of his profession and shows great care and concern with your well being and comfort. That is a cut above every other dentist I have been to in the past.
I also have to say the entire staff from the girls at the front desk to the dental assistants and hygienists are not just friendly but also professional. The general feeling in this office is comfortable and familiarity as you can hear the staff welcome everyone, and more often than not greet you by name.
I am so happy that I made that phone call to Dr. Miyasakiʻs office and very pleased with all the work that I have had. I have already recommended Dr. Miyasaki and A Downtown Dental Group to several of my family, friends and co workers and will continue to do so because I truly believe they are the best.
Rob
Absolutely exceptional service from the time I walked in the door to when I left. I appreciated Julia at the front desk who was so kind and welcoming. And Remy did such a wonderful job on my partial it absolutely fit perfect. And of course doctor Miyasaki s always gentle kind and patient. thank you all for such wonderful service.
As somebody who is very uncomfortable going to the dentist and avoided it for years….I was very impressed and thankful for Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki. He had compassion and I really felt like he cared about my as a human and not just a patient. I highly recommend him and his dental office. Everybody there was fantastic. Thank you to all of them and I really mean that!
The best dentist in the world! David Miyasaki always double check his work and makes it feels so easy! I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family! Thank you for taking care of me!
Dr D. Miyasaki and his entire staff made sure that I was comfortable during my entire visit and made sure I understood what they were going to work on beforehand. Absolutely the best and most polite Dental Office I have ever been to. Highly recommend!
COMFORTING! Professional, friendly, clean, I could go on and on. I was deathly afraid to go and I can honestly say for those who feel the same way, the staff in the front, in the back and dr. Williamsare all kind, that is where you want to go! They try to accommodate you and explain everything thoroughly! Their all so kind! If I could give them more then 5 stars I definitely would. Thank you to all of you for being patient, understanding but most of comforting! From my experiences they care about their patients! Thank you, robi kaneaiakala and cher dunhour
I have been doing to Dr. Miyasaki's clinic for over 30 years. They provide the most efficient, gentle and kind dental service. They have exceeded the protocols of keeping patients safe and they communicate all the efforts done to keep the patients in a save environment. The staff are always friendly and very professional.
The dental care I received was nothing less than excellent. Everyone I interacted with was friendly & professional. My fears, my comfort level were always respected. I would certainly recommend anyone to your organization. A special thank you to Dr Wilfred Miyasaki & Remee.
Doctor Miyasaki is the best! I am glad I chose this dentist.
My first visit to Dr. MIYASAKI. I felt comfortable and welcome. Dr. Miyazaki spent time examining me carefully.
Staff was very friendly and professional! Office was very clean and organized.
So far my experience has been great. Very happy that I chose Downtown Dental Group (Dr Wilfred Miyasaki) for my dental needs!
A tray with Starbucks coffee, bottled water and a can of pineapple juice was brought to me while I filled out new patient forms. Staff was extremely friendly and made great efforts to make me feel comfortable which I thought was great while thinking back how petrified my mom used to be of dentists. While waiting for my X-rays to be processed the hygienist asked if I wanted my teeth cleaned because she had some time before her next patient. She saved me an additional appointment!!! Dr. Miyasaki was nice and reviewed my X-rays, let me know what problems needed to be addressed. When I left he gave me a long stem red rose in thanks for becoming a new patient. Looking forward to my next appointment.
I love Dr. David Miyasaki and his entire team! I am one of those people who have major fear and anxiety about going to the dentist but that’s all a thing of the past. I’m very grateful for the care I receive here.
I am so happy with the staff. They are very hard working and incredibly friendly. They were able to assist me with short notice. Dr. was very polite, knowledgeable and took the time to get to know me. I am very pleased. Thank you! Definitely recommend them!
I was referred to Downtown Dental Group by my girlfriend. Your office was easily found and located using Google Maps. The entire Staff made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki is such a nice, friendly Dentist who has a caring ❤ and works wonders. He cares tremendously about his patients and I trust him and his professional knowledge to make me smile with confidence again.
Just the fact that one of the first things that happened when I started going here was that they scheduled an appointment just to inform me how much the work was gonna cost, and how long it would take to complete makes this the best dentist I've ever gone to and worth the five stars alone, but on top of that the staff are very polite and make absolutely sure I know what is happening at all times. I have total confidence in this dentist office. It comes highly recommended by me.
I have been a patient of Dr Miyasaki for many years. I have always been satisfied with his recommendations and treatments. I never had to return because something was not done right. I did have treatment elsewhere and Dr Miyasaki had to fix it. I will continue treatments with Dr Miyasaki as long as I have teeth. He has always been the most gentle dentist giving shots.
Dr. David Miyazaki and his team are excellent at providing a crown on my poor tooth. They’re experts, quick and efficient and painless. Highly recommend.
I had a very wonderful experience. The whole staff is very courteous and professional. Dr. David Miyasaki has made my experience there amazing for me. I was really always uncomfortable going to the dentist. But I'm thankful for such a great staff and David Miyasaki for showing me that your patients are important. I would definitely recommend this place hands down.
Since I just started Medicare insurance coverage this year, I was not familiar with the dental services covered under Medicare. Everyone whom I met during my first visit to A Downtown Dental Group were very courteous, friendly and professional. I am looking forward to my next appointment with Dr. Miyasaki.
I’ve been going to Downtown Dental for years now. My first ever visit was great. They were friendly and helpful all around. Doctor is always smiling and always happy. Also genuine about his work and what not. I got my teeth straightened with Invisalign like 5 years ago and have been going back for any other procedures I want done because they’re that great! Easy to work with and they try to help you with payments and what not. They really think about the patient and I love that. Definitely love the whole team.
Once again I was very impressed with their excellent patient care and professionalism. Dr David and his staff are welcoming with a smile. Julia at the front office as always was very pleasant and making sure my visit was comfortable. Remy who assisted Dr David always makes you feel at ease.
Thanks Dr David and your entire team for a service par excellence!!
I appreciate how fast I was able to get an appointment. I also got a pre-call by the doctor on my appointment the day before. The staff is kind and went out there way to meet me outside the office to ensure I found the office. Thank you and I recommend this office.
I Love this group! Dr. Miasaki is the best Dentist! I've been a patient for over 12 years, so has my mother. All the staff are wonderful! Everyone here is there for! Especially in a crisis!
Great customer care today, they took care of my needs
Bless you Dr. Miyasaki for your professional work and care during my dental procedure. I was so happy and pleased when I awoke with no pain or discomfort. You truly are the best dentist ever. My heartfelt thank you to you and your supportive friendly staff. Ivory E. Stone
My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Miyasaki for almost 30 years! #nuffsedd
Everyone in the office is always at most, very professional and pleasurable ~ I always feel comfortable as soon as I walk-in!🤗. Many times we’ve thought about looking for a dentist closer to home but “great things” are hard to find...so why look any further. (Hence, I think the only negative is the location ~ it would be perfect if they’d consider a 2nd location...in the “Second City” of O’ahu!😃. In closing, if anyone is looking for awesome Dental practice Ohana - contact A Downtown Dental Group!
Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki is surely the best at his craft, his patience is a/my virtue - I call it the “shake-shake!” 🤣 which is NO needle injection pain felt ever!
And Dr. David Miyasaki is just as awesome. In closing, shout outs to Julia, Janet and Aloha Nui to Darlene!
My first time there. Everyone there made me feel so comfortable. I didnt feel tense like i usually do when i walk into a dental office. Dr was very nice and willing to answer any questions and concerns that i may have. I hope to continue to go there for all my dental needs.
Dr. David Miyasaki is a truly dedicated to patient care. I required some complex dental procedures and could not have asked for better care than what I received with Dr. Miyasaki. He thoroughly explained my treatment options and process, then painstakingly provided treatment while minimizing my discomfort. He was great at following up and demonstrated true care throughout. I would recommend Dr. Miyasaki to all my friends and family.
This office is tucked in the heart of Chinatown but once you step into the office you forget the busy happenings outside. The office, though small, is clean and the staff pleasant and welcoming.
I came in to see Dr David Miyasaki for a consultation for a dental implant procedure. The office works with a team of capable professionals with the expertise of achieving the results I wanted. Dr David Miyasaki is very professional, explaining the procedure to be done and the end result he wants to achieve to get that beautiful smile. Thus far, I feel comfortable and reassured that I made a good choice and I highly recommend him. Thank you Dr David!
Dr. Miyasaki was awesome ! He made me feel comfortable and also took me in last minute because I was in awful pain! The best dentist I ever had! I didn’t even feel anything . I would highly recommend dr. David Miyasaki. At last a dentist we can rely on
Today,I had 7 teeth extracted from my upper plate for future dentures.I was not concerned about any pain during the treatment but to my surprise,I did not feel any pain at all,in fact when the doctor said he was done ,I was totally stunned .Nothing even 9 hours after leaving his office!!Thank You Dr.W.Miyasaki.
From front office to the hygienists, they are very helpful and professional. Dr. David Miyasaki is an excellent Dentist, listens to patients concerns and caring. I also appreciate the call back after the procedure just to make sure everything is okay. I recommend it to my families and friends.
The whole team at Downtown dental group is amazing. I’ve always put off going to the dentist because I knew I needed a lot of stuff done. I finally had the courage to get work done and I’m glad I found this dentist. I never feel any discomfort or leave with any pain. I’m happy patient that keeps going back! Thanks!
I know I needed a lot of dental work and was kind of nervous about hearing all the treatment options from Dr. David Miyasaki. To Dr. David Miyasaki's credit, he took the time to clearly explain everything and made me feel more relaxed. Bottom line is we came up with a plan of action. I left the office in a better space than when I came in.
This is by far the best dental group that I’ve been to. I’ve been two times now. The staff is amazing with no judgment what so ever. Best part is that the staff actually listens to you and talk to you, not at you! Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Staff are always pleasant informative and helpful. Office is clean and safe.
Dr Miyasaki and his son are fantastic. When Wilfred is working in my mouth I usually fall asleep . I don't know how he does it but I can never feel the needle at all NEVER! Before you know it he's done and I'm numb. And to top it off with his beautiful and super friendly staff... This place is top notch and my mouth has never smiled so big before... Janet's room needs new photos
I was referred by my friend to go see Dr. Wilfred Miyazaki for a consultation for my badly receded gum around dental implants. Dr. Miyazaki and his assistant are very personable and genuinely sincere.
First, his assistant (I forgot to ask her name) asked me the details of my problem and written down.
Dr. Miyazaki took time to examine my gum and implants area. He didn’t charge anything for the examination.
Today was my first visit and didn’t do any treatment yet but I have confidence Dr. Miyazaki will take care of my problem. I just wish I knew Dr. Miyazaki before I’ve done a failed gum graft from other dentist.
Found Dr. Miyasaki during a stroll downtown and I checked on line whether he accepted my Dental Insurance which my former dentist did not. In between I tried another dentist who accepted the insurance but I was not satisfied with the service provided.
To me sitting in a dentist's office is probably the worst place to be but I found my visits to be tolerable.
Dr. Miyasaki runs a very efficient operation. My initial visit was a get acquainted session with assistant Remy taking charge and briefing Dr. Miyasaki followed by X-Rays.
Next visit was an operations order. Dr. laid out a plan of attack followed by several visits to resolve the various issues that I was faced with.
Dr. Miyasaki did not waste time, he delegated work to his assistants who were capable. He did not talk much and just did his job. He also did a redo of a fix of one of my tooth done by my previous dentist.
I did not waste much time in the waiting room. I always arrived at least 10 minutes before my appointed time and found myself in the dentist chair pretty much on schedule.
Nice and cozy dental office. Staff are friendly and helpful . My only wish that the City and County could consider installing or designating couple of handicap parking in the area.
Dr. Miyazaki and his staff have been involved in my dental implant needs and have demonstrated very high level of competency and professionalism. I am always being treated like I was part of their family and the experiences in the dental chair have always been pleasant with very little pain. I completely trust in their professional expertise to meet my dental health needs now and in the future. I would highly recommend Dr. Miyazaki's group to any family and friends that I know that needs dental care. Thank you so very much Dr. Miyazaki and staff!
Let me start by saying that I have been terrified of The Dentist my entire life. Years ago I had a terrible experience with a dentist in Kailua who told me it was "not possible" for me to be feeling the pain that I was feeling as I white-knuckled the chair and tried to breathe through the pain. My lack of dental insurance coupled with my fear of dentists has kept me out of the chair and led to my having serious dental problems. After days of pain and not being able to eat or sleep, I literally could not take the pain anymore. So as soon as they opened I called to see if they would see me. I was told to come in to their office so off I went worried, in pain, and not even sure if I could financially afford to stop the pain. The reason for this review is to let anyone, who may be similarly situated, know that Dr. David Miyasaki is different and you can honestly Trust him. His staff is different and they genuinely care. I mean real Malama real Kokua not just Waha kine. I mahalo Ke Akua for bringing me to Dr. Miyasaki and I Mahalo Dr. Miyasaki and his team for not only taking the pain away and working with me but for giving me hope that I'll be able to someday smile again. So in conclusion, if your not thankful for your dentist its because you don't have this team, and I'm just thankful because now I do.
The service at Dr. Miyasaki's office is always professional and we are treated with kindness. There's a family atmosphere and I always leave feeling well taken cared of and I can see and feel a change with my smile. Dr. Miyasaki and his staff are great and I highly recommend to anyone.
I intended to give a full report after my final visit. To date, I have had a consultation and four appointments thereafter. I have one more appointment to complete the work. I pay cash and expect a discount for professional dental work. I simply could not wait any longer to tell my experience.
It begins with a dental discount ad catching my attention. I did my research on Dr. David Miyasaki and his father Wilfred. I decided to put their words to the test. I can honestly say starting from walking in to their office to stepping out their front door, my experience has been nothing but amazing. David is simply top notch in his profession and I would recommend him and his team to anyone.
Thank you Dr. David Miyasaki and the rest of the Downtown Dental Group staff. What I liked is that much effort was placed to make me feel welcomed, and I did feel completely welcomed during my visit. I also liked the fact that Dr. David listened to how I felt about what and how treatment for my dental health should be worked out.
Not having dental insurance I was very concerned about my financial budget. I suggested that my dental treatment be stretched out to a six month period, consisting of three sessions, so I could have some time to pay down my credit card account. Dr. David listened and understood my problem and went along with my suggested plan. The total bill was not cheap, but I think it was honest and completely fair.
I’m very pleased with Dr. David’s work and feel like I have a “new” set of teeth. I totally recommend Dr. David and his staff.
Dr. David Miyasaki is my dentist. He and his staff at A Downtown Dental Group have been highly skillful and professional during every appointment. Their offices are very clean and the employees are always friendly and helpful.
Since I was pressured by my grand daughter, in May 2016, to have a dental professional examine and try to save any teeth that I had left in my mouth, I reviewed a few dental adds on the internet and found that the Downtown Dental Group was my first choice out of about 6. I am so glad that my grand daughter was so insistent, so I made arrangements with Dr. Miyasaki's staff to work on my choppers. I found that Dr. Miyasaki and his staff took a personal interest in providing me with the best dental care that I could ever ask for, especially since my past experiences with the dental profession had been unbearable since
I was a kid. Even when I felt uncomfortable with a partial, there was no hesitation on the part of Dr. Miyasaki or his staff to provide me with immediate service to fix the problem. I was also offered a payment plan to do the extensive work that needed to be done, it turned out great and payments were tailored to meet my budget. I would not hesitate to refer my family and friends to experience what I found to be something that I should have done years ago. Thanks to Dr. Miyasaki and his staff for their concerns and excellent work ethics and especially my grand daughter for her insistence for me to take time to attend to something that is so important and give me back my self assurance and confidence.
Best dentist in Hawaii period. Very enjoyable visits. Very friendly staff. Half of my teeth over the years have been repaired BEAUTIFULLY and nearly PAINLESSLY. I love going to the dentist now. Please try them once and you will be a customer for life I guarantee it! Allen Osborn :)###
I had an Emergency and I needed to see someone right away! Dr. Miyasaki was able to see me short notice and schedule me in for a root canal. They were AMAZING. Now I'm on to better dental hygiene thanks to this group. Their Hygenist is also soo great. They are the best around. And the Darlene and the staff are wonderful!
I have known Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki and his staff for the past 11 years. I was disappointed to read the review by Chae M. on Yelp that posted on June 8, 2014. Dr. Miyasaki and his staff have sponsored "Dentists With A Heart" for many years now. They conduct this event as volunteers for those in need of dental services. They are not rude employees and provide quality service to all patients that visit their office. Dr. Miyasaki and his staff are to be commended for a job well done and I sincerely hope that the "Dentists With A Heart" Program continues for many more years.
If you are seeking a warm caring atmosphere Downtown Dental is where you will find it. My daughter's teeth we terrible mostly due to medical conditons and a car accident. She was devastated at her appearance after the teeth had to come out for health reasons. Dr. DAVID MIYASAKI and staff embraced my daughter with much more than fantastic dentistry. He took the time to talk with her about her teeth and then with the help of photographs her dentures look exactly like her real teeth did. I was overwhelmed with their kindness and understanding as she has MS too. They not only put a smile on her face they put HER smile back on her face. I highly recommend this fantastic, compassionate dentisry group. You know they truly care about the outcomes their patients experience.
Best dental filling I ever had
This is the first time that I ever had dental fillings done and I did not feel any pain at all. I was so happy that I hugged my dentist and his assistant afterwards! Dr. David Miyasaki really lives up to the testimony that this dental practice caters to cowards. I have a very low tolerance to pain and until I found his father, Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki years ago, I was a true dental phobic. Dr. David listened to my fears and made sure that I didn't feel any pain whatsoever by giving me a topical anesthetic before giving me a novacaine shot (which I didn't feel at all) and making sure that I got enough novacaine (and gave it time to sink in good), so I wouldn't feel the procedure at all. He constantly checked on me during the procedure to make sure I was okay and explained everything to me as he worked, so I would know what to expect. I was a little nervous at first because this was the first time Dr. David was going to do my fillings. I met him for the first time last month when I needed to get a broken tooth fixed (and his father was not available for the appointmennt time I needed) and he took good care of me then as well. As I had mentioned before in my last review, the saying is true that "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" because this dental practice of father and son is the best on the island. Just ask any former dental phobic that is a patient there! I recommend them highly. The level of skill, care, and compassion is second to none! Also, having weekend hours has been great for me (since I work double jobs and have a special needs son). Can't find that in a lot of dental practices around. Look no further, you have found your new great dentist! :-)
I have been with this dental group over thirty years and have never once regretted all the years of professionalism mixed with humanism always above and beyond caring for their clients truly capable and awesome in all that they do a heartfelt Mahalo to all of them
I am so happy that I started going to Dr. Miyasaki for my dental needs! Everyone there is very courteous. Darlyne and Julia in front are so friendly and accommodating. Verna is the best hygienist, very thorough and knowledgeable, yet personable. Meg and Remi help Dr. Miyasaki and they are very good at making you relax if you are nervous like I first was. Dr. Miyasaki is very kind and patient, too, which helps a lot if you are apprehensive in the beginning. In fact, all of them are very patient and understanding and work very hard to make you feel at ease. I don't plan on switching dentists. I'm very happy with Dr. Miyasaki and his staff!!
Upon entering Dr. Miyasaki's office, you are always greeted and welcomed warmly by his entire staff no matter how busy they are on the phone or with another patient. The waiting time is minimal, and once inside to see the dentist, the welcoming greeting contines by the other staff members. Dr. Miyasaki is a dentist that I trust wholeheartedly with the care of my teeth and oral hygiene. He does excellent work and I'm always pleased with the results. Many people have told me how good my teeth looks.
My husband and I have traveled and lived internationally in England and Belgium for six years. Therefore, I have been to several dentists and hygienists who have admired my teeth and the work that has been done on it. It only confirmed what I already knew. Dr. Miyasaki is meticulous with his work and alongside his support team, they all try to make the dental experience as comfortable as possible. I have been with Dr. Miyasaki for many years before traveling abroad and would not choose any other dentist now that we are home in Hawaii. I am encouraging others to have a visit if they are on the verge of looking for a new dentist.
The work that Dr Miyasaki did on my teeth was excellent. I was ashamed of my teeth before Dr Miyasaki worked on them and disappointed at the work my previous dentist didn't do that needed to be done. When Dr Miyasaki told me what needed to be done, I cried. He showed compassion by making me proud of my teeth now. I thank him very much. I would sure be happy to have some before and after photos. Thank you very much
I had great fear of dental work because of an experience of my youth. From this incident I stayed away from Dentists. Now that I'm older I realized the importance of good follow up care. This neglect had put me in a very bad situation. I saw an ad in the paper regarding Dr. Miyasaki. I called to make an appointment and can say that this was one of the most important and rewarding decisions I have made for myself. It took time for me to make a first appointment as a caregiver to my mother and other restraints. Then he took the time to write me regarding my care and encouragement. I then decided and scheduled my first appointment with him. I don't think Dr. Miyasaki even realizes how much he does for others as he has done for me. He has a gift. I recognized it the first time he worked on my teeth. My fears were gone the minute he stepped into the room. He's soft spoken and has few words to say, but his work is to be admired. Every step of the way was an experience of a professional at work. A master in his field, his nurses work so well with him,very skilled and compassionate. His office staff so detailed and pleasant. I will always have praises for Dr. Miyasaki and his gift of Dentistry and he will be remembered each time I smile at myself in the mirror. Good Job Dr. Miyasaki! You made a little me (in view of myself) a new and important me!
The entire experience from the initial phone call to the exam, x-rays, and the planning for future visits was so simple. Everyone was so kind and they really take the time to get to know you. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Dear Dr. Miyasaki & Staff,
I just wanted you and your staff to know that coming up in life was very hard for me because I did not
have very much. When I had my first child I think I was the happiest man in the world.
The day my son was murdered I thought there was nothing else in the world worth living for. When I moved to Hawaii I did not know anyone and I was not sure if I was going to make it here or not. The day I first started coming to your office I was so afraid of the different things that the dentist was going to have to do to me, repairs, fillings, crowns, cleaning, and especially have to give me all the medications, shots. I was not sure if my body could handle. I knew I was scared and embarrassed the way I looked. I have never had no one treat me the way your staff did. From day 1 they have been so polite, respectful, and especially they cared.
I have seen and gone to a lot of doctors in my life but none of them have ever come close to
being such a wonderful, dedicated, and caring doctor as you. All of you have done so much for me and have treated me with so much respect and professionalism.
There are so many things I would like to say to all of you for the way you have made me feel but the main thing is to say from my heart is Thank You for everything. All of you are wonderful people and without your help and strength I would of never made it or gone through what I went through. Your office has shown me that there are good people in this world that do care.
May God always be with all of you and give you and your families the strength
to get everything you deserve out of life.
God Bless all of you.
Very respectfully,
Michael Taylor
The Aloha your staff showed is remarkable. since coming home i haven't seen much of this. This is Hawaii and we must not forget what Aloha means. Today I felt that from everyone in your office. At lease your office has not forgotten that. If anyone ask me to recommend a dentist I will definitely recommend your office
I find that my visits are always pleasant, the office and staff is always friendly, helpful and accommodating. Dr. Miyasaki is a excellent dentist who fully explains all of my options. I would fully recommend him and his office. J Courtney
Dr. David Miyasaki gives best oral care plus non stop communication with ton laughter. Say yes , got my beautiful dentures plus self confidence too.
I haven't been in there for my appt. yet and he the dentist himself called me to tell me that he was sorry that they were closed when I called but that his staff would be calling me Monday to give me an appointment. I thought that that was very nice of him and I wasn't even his patient yet. Now I can hardly wait to meet him.
Dr. Wilfred M is by far the best dentist I've been to. He is extremely knowledgeable and fair with everything (including price!) He made me feel so comfortable and took on my problem tooth that was causing me a lot of stress. No more irritation or nonsense. I now have a beautiful crown and it looks just perfect. I also opted to do a little cosmetic rejuvenation on two teeth towards the front to balance my smile after years of grinding. My teeth resemble my teenage years again and he pulled off something that other dentists simply can not do. He is amazing and I can't believe I found a dentist that I actually like. hahaha. Give him a shot, he's the best there is, and beyond affordable.
Well, being that the word Dentist is far from me in vocabulary or even going or seeing or just walking by it. Gives me pain. But entering this Dentistry the welcome and smiling faces and help, gave me a easy relax ing mind of thoughts. Blood pressure didn't even want to play. The sence of humor and laugh's with the staff felt no pain But the doctor and the conversation, made me feel the word NO FEAR I'm in good hands. Check it out you're going to see what I mean.
I went in for a free counseltation and was very impressed with the strategy Dr Wilfred Miyasaki drafted out for me . His overall plan covered my short needs and long term requirements . His rates were extremely reasonable and affordable. The staff and service were personal and professional.
Staff is attentive and patient. Covid-19 safety protocol is regularly followed. Every one helps the patient feel good about taking care of our teeth.
I have extreme anxiety when it comes to going to the dentist. They made me feel very comfortable and when I started crying they were understanding. They constantly ask if you are ok and make sure you know everything that is going to happen.
Their office staff actually understands how to submit insurance claims. It's not just one of them that knows either. They all seem competent. It's amazing. Everyone's really friendly. No one smells bad and rests their stale cigarette scented belly on your chest while working in your mouth. I haven't accidentally been stabbed by anything or heard the dentist work in my mouth and then go "Oh.. uhh.. you know what.. we'll fix that. We won't even charge you since I don't know why it came out like this. Can you come back next week?" or "Naw, you don't need to pack this filling material in tight. This wasn't even a cavity yet anyway."
Everyone in the staff is always friendly and the utmost care is taken for any dental treatment that is done on me. Seems that they care in making things comfortable as possible with as little pain through procedures. I will recommend this dental office to all my friends!
The staff is always really nice and welcoming. Even if your appointments are sparse through the year they treat you like family returning from a long trip, making it more comfortable to let them work on my teeth.
Dr. Miyasaki and staff always puts you at ease and assures that you are comfortable and relaxed through what could be a frightful experience for many. His procedures are always fast, painless and carefully thought out. I highly recommend Dr. Wilfred Miyasaki.
I've been a patient of theirs for over 30 years and would not think of going anywhere else.
This year I still feel the same. Dr. Miyasaki and Janet know me. They and the rest of the staff feel like family. At the same time they keep up with technology and this year with COVID protocols.
My visit was pleasant and informative. The work I had done is more than admirable. I certainly appreciate the professionalism, and consideration shown regarding my treatment. I am very pleased with my results, and look forward to my next visit.
Best Dental Experience I've ever had. Fully trust and feel assured that I am in great hands! Highly recommending!
Completely different experience from my previous dentist. They were very polite and made me feel like i'm was in good hands.
I have never experienced such a thorough and personal experience from a dental group before. They involved me in every aspect of the process so that I was able to make an informed decision with absolutely no pressure. I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and relatives.
I am very satisfied so far. I have at least one more appointment.
I need to get one of those air filtering machines. I can smell the difference from outside. It's really pleasant and enjoyable indoor air.
I want to tell everyone that Dr. Miyasaki and his staff are by far the best!! They take an genuine interest in all their patients! Greet you with a warm fuzzy smile, treat all with dignity!!!
I am so happy with the services I’ve received. I can smile again like I use to! There are no hidden fees here. All is explained in detailed wat needs to be done. You have options too. “The bigger plan?” Or the “little goals at a time?” Plan is spoken here.
My WHOLE family comes here now!
Please call them, tell them Lisann Moniz sent you!!
Who knows, they might have a referral program. I don’t know, so why don’t you find out!
Exceptional, very professional and most of all very caring.
Much more than what one would expect from a dentist.
Excellent dental work and experience for the patient.
Very highly would recommend the Downtown Dental Group.
5 Star.
My initial consultation was very nice. All of the staff were nice and Dr.David was informative of what will come next.
Always a pleasure going to the dentist office. I have been going there for many years. I went to another dentist for treatment and had to have Dr Miyasaki fix it. I will not go anywhere else.
The entire staff is exceptionally professional, courteous and extremely competent in their profession! Janet is the greatest dental hygienist. She's so down to earth!
Exceptional service from doctor and all staff/support personnel. I have most highly recommended this dental office for over thirty years.
I have had many dentists but when Dr W Miyasaki says this will not hurt he means it. He and his staff all represent the kind and gentle spirit we all hope for.
Doc & Staff are amazing people. Very helpful & monthly installments available. Doctor down to earth ,caring & very personable. All you could ask for a dentist and quality work.
The best dental visit o have ever had. I never feeling the first injection and it was even better from then!

It was a great experience I got hanapa twice n she the hygienist never New she caught me! Ha! Unaware of the Hawaian language hanapa meaning caught I twice! But that’s ok! I get passed up a lot!

I love, love, love Dr. Miyasaki and his staff! After many years of having dental fears, I found myself quite comfortable and relaxed in their hands. :-)
Dr. Miyasaki and The staff at Downtown Dental Group did a professional job of cleaning my teeth. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist.

Doctor Miyazaki is the best as far as I can see they think of everything. I have a lot of work to do and I'll be surprised if he can make my mouth back to normal again.
I hate going to the dentist I deal with the pain so I don't have to. Anyways they Dr. Miyasake office made me feel like at home and comfortable I will tell everyone I know that needs a dentist. That's the guy
Environment was clean. Lots of air humidifiers, anti bacterial gel, gloves, and staff wearing double masks, face shields, & extra paper scrubs. Every member of the staff was friendly and happy.
Friendly neighborhood dental practice. From the online request to the same day office visit. Mahalo, Drs and staff, for your authentic care and service!
My experience was very professional from the initial phone conversation with Julia to the consultation visit with Dr. Miyasaki. I would highly recommend Downtown Dental Group.
I Love My Doctor(Dentist) And His Wonderful Assistant. They Are Both Sooo Caring, Personally, Now, That Is What You Call The "ALOHA SPIRIT", You Can Hardly Find It Today...

They are great👍 …
Overall greatness!
The people are friendly.
execellent.
As a partial review...I appreciate the care and time that was taken for my 1st visit. However, with my unique situation I may have to follow up sooner for an actual procedure. My preference for my general health is treating the issue at the root over simply medicating it. (We'll see what's next in my case) if they can offer treatment sooner.
Super friendly and professional staff! They treat you like family there, especially Iva, she makes you feel so comfortable. I love everyone there at Dr. Miyasaki’s dental office! Thank you!🙏 …
