Meet Dr. Joel Khoo
Dr. Joel Khoo brings a wealth of knowledge and a passion for excellence in patient care. He earned his Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree from the National University of Singapore before advancing to a Master of Science in Prosthodontics at the University of Iowa.
Dr. Khoo chose dentistry because it combines surgery, artistry, and the fulfillment of transforming patients’ lives through exceptional care. His specialized prosthodontics training allows him to restore confident, beautiful smiles for patients with complex dental health challenges.
"One of my greatest joys is seeing my patients' dental fears transform into calm confidence. It's incredibly rewarding to be trusted with their oral health, and it motivates me to give my very best every day. Restoring patients' smiles to a level they never thought possible makes all the effort worthwhile. I hope to inspire excitement about dental care within our community and every patient we have the privilege to serve." – Dr. Joel Khoo
When he’s not at the office, Dr. Khoo enjoys spending quality time with his wife and two children in Corpus Christi. From gardening and cycling to outdoor adventures, he finds joy in connecting with nature and his family.
Meet Dr. Boss
Dr. Boss, our skilled and dedicated orthodontist, is a proud Texas native who grew up in a small town north of Dallas. A former soccer team captain at the University of Texas at Dallas, she holds a Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Performing Arts.
She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Baylor College of Dentistry, now Texas A&M College of Dentistry, and completed a one-year residency in Advanced Education in General Dentistry during her Air Force service. Dr. Boss's diverse experience includes general dentistry, pediatrics, military service, private practice, and teaching at a dental school.
After seven years of dental practice, Dr. Boss pursued her dream of becoming an orthodontist. She earned a Master’s in Health Administration and a Certificate in Orthodontics from the highly regarded A.T. Still University – Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health.
At Tide Dental and Orthodontics, our team is committed to providing exceptional care and crafting smiles with heart and expertise. We look forward to helping you achieve a healthy, confident smile!

I have been going to Tide Dental for several years and have never had a bad experience.

Very friendly staff. Dr. Khoo was extraordinarily knowledgeable and helpful. I certainly felt like I received more than I expected from a standard exam and cleaning.

My first time here today. I had a great experience. The wait time was not bad at all. The Dentist, Dental hygienist, Front office, and staff was great! Very polite and explained everything very thoroughly. Thank you so much for y'all's service! Oh one thing I can recommend. I'm a big woman so maybe get a dentist chair for big people. Lol sorry.

Roger hundley
Was to get final set of dentures,figuring would do a mold and go get dentures in a few weeks. Instead the dentist did some picture layout of the current dentures when he could of did the denture molds so we would go back one more time instead of going back 2 more times.
.png)
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. We understand your frustration and appreciate your feedback. We did inform you that we would need to get approval from her insurance prior to her getting dentures. We did not get that information until just recently which was explained you when you called on 4/15 and 5/7 of this year. Our office does not have a inhouse lab, so there are several steps before getting the final denture. If you need further assistance or have any questions, feel free to reach out to us regarding your wife's treatment and how it with her insurance.

The front staff are very helpful. The techs are so awesome, they explain everything. The placement of my crowns went very smoothly and it didn’t hurt because the doctor listened to me.

No waiting times, always accessible when I need to reschedule. Front desk and hygienists are always welcoming.
Adriana Owens
I can’t said bad things enough about this place. Staff is rude and the dentist has an ego issue. The dentist got his feelings hurt and basically walk away. Imagine if you have an issue with his work? He would walk away?. Very childish and unprofessional. Worse experience of my life.
Lisa Kelley
Dr. Choose and his assistant,Yvonne, were a great.team. they were patient and listened to me. Very little discomfort during my procedure. Highly recommend Dr. Khoo.

Melissa Pace
Omg the best dentist Dr Khoo and his assistant were absolutely amazing .I was so nervous but Dr Khoo assured me it will be fine and it was no pain ,he numbed me up and I didn't feel no pain during a moler extraction! He is gentle and has an amazing mannerism . I had a large moler he had to cut tooth in half and pull out in sections ! I will never go to any other dentist but DR KHOO ! I am so happy with his care ,he's patient and listens and cares about his patients !
Matt Jimenez
Was great being a first time patient. Just wish I had better results with my teeth
Karyn Johnson
I went in as a new patient. Filled out the paperwork and they did x-rays. I saw the DDS and he recommended putting the bad tooth. Less than 20 minutes later the tooth was gone and I was done. Polite and friendly.

Thank you for recognizing our efforts in meeting your needs!

Aaron Eppars
These people are pathetic, I wouldn't send my dog here. They are unprofessional and unfriendly. They failed to get my prescription to a pharmacist in a timely manner, I had to drive to the office because they were not answering phones, to get them to call the Rx in again. That wasted half of a day. Then I called all morning, and left messages regarding my appt. And was never called back. I eventually got someone on the phone to let them know I might be a few minutes late, the lady says ok but when I got there they said I had to be rescheduled. They are incompetent and inconsiderate at best, patient care is clearly the bottom of their list..
Amy Baerga
Good dental office! Polite & friendly staff. They've been cleaning my teeth since 2015. I definitely recommend Tide Dental!
DON CROMEANS
At receptionist desk, wanted to query concerning my medicare United Health Insurance, she told me "have a seat".......Basicly left me there. Finally, decided they've more business than they need or maybe don't need and I left...........
Elva Jimenez Davila
Dr. Khoo is absolutely the best prosthodontist. I've had a number of dentists in the past, but he is by far the most knowledgeable and compassionate. I trust him implicitly and would recommend him to anyone who needs major dental work.

Dr. Khoo is truly the best - thank you for your kind words and recommendation!

Mr. Dr. Daxter
I had a tooth extraction recommended at this place. The dentist who owns the practice recommended the extraction of one of my wisdom teeth and when I told him I had severe anxiety about dental surgery due to a prior bad experience, he assured me they would give me gas and I would have a positive experience. I called them and paid for my appointment in advance and just had the extraction done today. Unfortunately, even though the HEAD DENTIST recommended that I get gas for the extraction, they FORGOT to put it in my treatment plan and I was not made aware of this during the payment process, check in process, or really at ALL until I asked about it just before they began the extraction, at which point it was too late for them to give me the gas because they had already done two fillings and they warned that since I hadn’t eaten breakfast the gas would make me sick. Then when I asked for more anesthetic during the extraction because it was very painful, the guest dentist they had filling in for the head dentist made it seem like I was faking the pain! He said “we can only give you one more shot before we have to send you somewhere else, so you need to decide if you’re really in pain or not” which was a TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE thing to say to someone who is literally sweating and shaking.
Paul Silverio-Benet
Great facility. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Dr.Khoo is the best! I highly recommend this facility!
Sonia Sontag
Friendly and caring staff. Dr. Khoo took his time, in explaining all of my dental needs. I recommend his services to my family and friends. Thank you all.

Dr Khoo is the best. Best dentist I've ever had and his assistant Jessica is great. Take my kids there also and they all feel same.
Lisa Mason
The staff is great! They are so helpful and very friendly. Scheduling appointments was a breeze. I felt very well cared for. Set my son up to get dental work done there too. Would highly recommend. Dr. Khoo is very nice and everyone explains everything that's being done. You never feel like you don't know what's going on.
Alex Trevino
This place is AWESOME! Been coming here for years and wouldn't go anywhere else. The staff know how to treat you and are very professional. I recommend this office to anyone who needs dental work.

I had a teeth cleaning appointment at Tide Dental & Orthodontics today, and it was an excellent experience. The staff was friendly and professional, making sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. The hygienist was thorough yet gentle, and I left feeling refreshed and well taken care of. I highly recommend Tide Dental & Orthodontics for their efficient service and attention to patient comfort.

Their entire team provides incredible Customer Service !!! I currently do, and will continue to highly recommend Tide Dental to everyone. Great experience !!! Scott Fauver
Darren Durst
I wish I could evaluate their service, but I didn't get a chance. I showed up for my 3:00 appointment today and was greeted by a sign that stated that they were closed due to a power outage. Funny thing is both businesses that flank then in the same building had power. Sure would have been nice to get an email or text stating that I would have to reschedule before I took off work and made the half hour journey there. This doesn't instill alot of confidence that they care for their patients.
Fletch
Great first visit! Friendly, professional and clean. All questions answered! Excellent customer experience!
Vicki Maixner
Very caring and friendly.. all seem to enjoy what they do. Loads of smiles and friendly employees. Consultation with Dr was very through.
Michael Laethem
Tide Dental is the best Dentist office I have ever used. All the staff is friendly and the dental work is superb.
Rolando Gutierrez
Friendly staff Low to no wait time Thorough and informative dental appointment
It's Complicated
Dr. Khoi was very thorough. I had fillings done today and he watched my signs when something was too sensitive he quickly stopped and made sure I was comfortable. The lady that schedules which works alongside Dr. Khoi is also very very sweet and very informative she made sure I knew exactly what my out of pocket was before any services continued. The front desk could be a little more friendlier when greeting patients coming in or just making sure she acknowledges that you have arrived. How we she is always very busy on the phone with other patients so completely understandable. All in all very satisfied
Valerie Salazar
The doctor is always welcoming and very very knowledgeable. I love how she takes time and has patience in teaching the dental assistants. She has a lot of passion for what she does and it shows with how my teeth are looking today.
Chastity Lairson
Our first visit was nothing but positive from our interactions at the check in desk, to the dental check cleaning and check out. Dr. Khoo and his staff we're super friendly and my teens felt great about their visits. We'll definitely be returning!
Amy Faulkner
Honestly the best dental practice my husband and I have been to. I have been going here for a couple of years now. I stand by this assessment.
Lynda Steen
Dr.Khoo is very knowledgeable and does a great job with my dental care. Recently had teeth cleaned ??. Easy peasy. Staff is open and friendly. Prices are reasonable and in range of us ordinary people. I won't go anywhere else.
Steve Finley
Shanna & Desiree and of course, Dr. Khoo are all terrific to work with. Michelle up front set us up as new patients and handled the insurance. The whole experience made it a pleasure going to the dentist.
JMM
I have always received excellent care from Dr. Khoo and his team. The only reason I didn't give them five stars is because they have a policy where you have to pay cash for major work and then they reimburse you after insurance pays them. What's the point of even having insurance if I have to pay out of pocket?!? Other than that, you won't find better dental care anywhere.
Michelle Bridges
They are always very nice and helpful! The hygienist is the best- quick and efficient!
Kimberly Jackson
Dentist doing the suction in mouth did horrible job and gave a painful blister under tongue.
Deborah Thornburg
The staff is very polite and the doctor and hygienist were both professional and efficient. Was concerned that no one could take care of insurance issues while the office manager was off for a few days.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We appreciate your kind words about our staff and the team's professionalism. We'll work on ensuring coverage for insurance matters when the office manager is unavailable.

Txwallbed Murphy Beds
This is a marvelous dental practice. The hygenist is terrific and knows what she is doing. Dr khoo has a special personality that calms your fears and apprehension. His abilities are excellent. I have gone to many dentists here, in Corpus, this one is a keeper. The office has the latest equipment, incredibly tidy and well managed. They are very clear on your financial responsibility before any procedure. That part was bit off-putting. I am not familiar with this practice. Maybe it’s new. I am not sure. 12/01/2024 update. Completely satisfied. Another excellent cleaning. Couldn’t be happier.
Jimmie W
Had a 1:30 appointment at Tide Dental today. The normal custom is to arrive at least 15 minutes early for 1st appointment to fill out information and history forms. To my schgrin the entrance was locked on arrival. There was a posting that explained closed 12:30 - 1:30 for lunch. Odd I thought. I did find the place sparkling clean and employees friendly and professional. Dr Koot was just great with teeth exam explaining everything. Then the only cleaning I was offered was a "deep cleaning". I have no gum problems to warrant a deep cleaning. I really only wanted the regular cleaning. When I declined the deep cleaning I was shown the door.
Kim and Warren Perkins
The staff was very pleasant and professional. I was very pleased with my treatment.

Catrina Munguia
Clean, and quick. Only been a patient for a month and they have done amazing work on my teeth. Highly recommended. Super friendly kid friendly as well
James Woolard
Dr. Khoo and the entire staff are great. Required full upper denture and decided on a Hybridge solution. Dr. Khoo took time and considerable care to ensure we were pleased with the results as well as the functionality of the outcome. Each step of the process was explained clearly and meticulous effort was put in to ensure fit, comfort and appearance were proper. Could not be more pleased. The tooth sizing, position and bite are astonishingly natural. The office and dental staff are welcoming, attentive and friendly, they seemed just as excited as we were to see the results. Truly a positive experience.

Very pleasant environment and the Dr was very kind and knowledgeable. Everyone there are very friendly.
Jay Payne
The good- clean office, nice staff, cool X-ray tech. The bad- waited an hour and a half to be seen after making an appointment over a month ago. The exam consisted of the dentist going over the X-rays and barely looking in my mouth. I was then told I had to reschedule my dental cleaning because the exam went too long and the hygienist was booked. Left with an estimate to have $3000 worth of work done.
Ben Bethke
Very professional explained everything where I could understand will definitely wait on results and go back thanks. Well here it is over 2months and still haven't heard from them so much for professional found another dentist already 2days and got results would not recommend this place.
Mara Porter
Shana is always pleasant and very good at what she’s doing. I always feel confident she will do a great job cleaning my teeth.
Bull Chase
No waiting, very up to date technology, if you need orthodontic work as well as general dentistry, you can get both there. Easy to park as well.
Lisa Sanchez
The staff here is so friendly & helpful. I love how any time I have questions, they have great explanations. I also love how they don't force the little ones to do anything they're not comfortable with, which I'm sure makes a pleasant experience because both my boys left with healthy smiles. Ooh, another thing, making an appointment is super easy with them, as all. I did mine via text & that helped me out. I'd definitely recommend giving them a call!
teri nardo
I have been a patient for several years since moving to South Texas have always paid my bill as has my insurance company today I was informed I needed to have a filling replaced and had to pay for that filling replacement prior to them even booking the appointment never mind performing the service Sorry tide dental that's not how it works you perform the service and then you get paid you don't get paid for The service prior to even booking the appointment shame on you
Cynthia Garza
Everyone at the office was pleasant and respectful. Front desk people recognized me. Jessica the dental tech was efficient and precise. Desireé the dental assistant was kind, skilled, and efficient. Dr. Khoo addressed my concerns and did good work. I am glad I found this good dentist right in the bus lines. There are three bus lines that pass within a block of the office. Great location. Good dental office.
Danielle Williamson
My husband and I took our 2 year old for her first dental appointment. The staff was very kind and attentive. The dentist was very good with her and was quick. He answered all of our questions. I go for my appointment next week and am looking forward to it! The only thing I would pick on if I had to was that there was nothing pediatric related in the office (toys, etc). It isn't a must, but I just assumed there would at least be something. Just a small area of improvement is all.
Chris Weathington
Very please with the service I received today. And the staff and doctor was excellent. They explain everything so you can understand what's going on. I'm a new patient and glad I chose them to be my dentist. Thank you
Laura __
So far so good, met with Dr. Wang briefly, she seems nice, I'll have to meet w her again next week, I'll gather more thoughts then.
Miranda Salinas
Do you not go here. This place is horrible. I went in for a regular cleaning and exam and was told I had a cavity. I went in for a filling and it was the most painful experience I have ever had at a dental office. I felt every single drill and injection. I then continued to have pain in the tooth for a week. When I returned to the dental office, I was forced to get it refilled. I then continued to have more pain in the same tooth and was forced into a root canal with a crown the root canal with the crown cost me $600 out of pocket I was told I would receive $400 back When my insurance paid out the claim,. I eventually called them to inquire about the reimbursement, and was told that they filed a claim, but it had not been paid out after three months of trying to get my reimbursement back. I was then told that I would only be receiving $150 they claim to have it charged me $50 for a missed appointment that I had called to cancel but they were not open at the time that I called. This place is a scam. I should have read the reviews before going there. Save yourself the pain the time and money. Do not go to Tide dental
A. J. Perez
Hygienist a little to ruff with cleaning. Could be friendlier and quicker with exams. Sitting in exam chair waiting for doctor and hygienist for 30 mins. With an appointment. It’s okay but not the best could improve on hospitality. Rushing to get me out the door
Laura Montgomery-McGrady
The dentist that took care of my son was kind and efficient. They did an excellent job with his teeth. We had our questions answered without making us feel stupid for asking them and we were shown tips and tricks for that extra brilliant smile!!
Taylor Mayfield
I’m so happy my husband and I made the switch to Dental Space a year ago. I was having issue after issue with my previous dentist and after thousands of dollars (and pain) my problem was never fixed. Dental Space corrected my problem immediately, and I’ve been pain-free ever since! The staff here is also top notch- super welcoming and friendly! I especially enjoy working Leeana. She’s wonderful!
Yixi Qiu
They will let you wait 0.5-1 hour if you are on time but will cancel your appointment if you are 10 minutes late
Chad Zuliani
This is the best dental practice in Corpus Christi. I know, I have been to several. Not only are the dentists amazing, the staff, including the front desk, the techs, and the dental hygienist are top notch. Today I went to get a night guard, they didn’t have to do a messy clay impression. They used a new technology were they scan your mouth with a camera, then send the results to the lab. If you are thinking about switching dentists, look no further than Tide Dental!

A family dentistry clinic you can really sink your teeth into...? Today was actually my first visit since I just found them after recently moving here, but the staff was friendly and efficient and it certainly seems to be a good clinic. If someone if I'll go again I'll open my mouth and say yaaaaaahhh.
LeeAnne Wheatley
Completed first appointment with ease. Exam, x-rays, treatment plan with costs list on paper to plan ahead.I hope all follow up appointments go as easy.

Overall everyone at the center were above par. We were greeted upon entering and the receptionist was professional. Inside the office staff were also very respectful in answering our questions. Keep up the good work.

I had been having severe migraines & very sensitive teeth to where it hurt just to eat sweets, so I got the deep cleaning that the doctor recommended. My migraines are gone & my teeth are no longer sensitive! I’ve trusted Tide Dental for years & I will continue to do so. Friendly staff & they made it easy to get seen with my busy schedule. Very grateful. Thank you all ?
Veronica Blanco
I've had a wonderful experience each and every time I have had an appointment. Everyone is very friendly and through explaining each treatment that is done.

Erlinda Cantu Deleon
I love the staff they are not rude not snotty if you know what I mean. The doctor understand your needs. The restroom is very clean and we don't wait more that 20 minutes over all I give them a plus and recommend Tide Dental & Orthodontics.
Maddie Warren
They fit me in last minute to take out a back molar that’s been bothering me. With me being halfway through my pregnancy, I didn’t want extensive work done. Especially since I had my 1 year old with me. They went ahead and fit me in between all their appointments to go ahead and get it out because they didn’t want me to have to deal with it and my pregnancy. They were great and accommodating and didn’t mind my son watching cocomelon in the stroller!
Vern Hull
Worst dental office I've been very expensive and a complete waste of time and money - Do yourself a favor and find a different dental office
Merlinda Espiritu
Katie was wonderful! She had been my dental Hygienist for a couple of years now. She makes me feel at home and does a thorough job. Always made sure I was comfortable while doing the procedure! Kudos to Katie! I love Tide Dental!

All staff is superb, but special shout goes to front desk clerk she is the face of the office from the moment I walked into the clinic I felt welcomed by her and it was reciprocated by every other staff member I met. it has a small town feel for a big city. I looked around to three different dental offices and Tide Dental exceeded my expectations. Dr. Khoo was very kind and explained all of the work he was doing 10/10 would recommend!
L. Goode
10/2023 update review The lady at the front told my daughter I didn't have the best attitude. That is very unprofessional. Especially when I am the one complaining that the office manager never contacted me as requested. And I am the problem? The dentist and hygenist are good.My issues are with scheduling, billing, and office staff. I have had several issues in the last months that changed my rating from 5 to 2. Recently, I had horrible tooth pain that was constant. It was very intense throbbing pain but they couldn't fit me in for over a week.I explained the level of pain and it didn't matter. Then I was sent to a specialist which scheduled me immediately. I asked to speak to the office manager or dentist at Tide Dental I was upset with a few things. The person on the phone did not seem tShe was professional but not caring. I told her I felt like they don't care. She told me they have over 1000 patients.I guess that means you just suffer. I will be looking for a new dental office for me and my daughter. Very disappointing as I like the dentist and we have been going here for a few years. I need to know I can get care in a timely manner. I shared my experiences with family and friends. All said change dental practices this is not their experiences. Now need to see if their dentist accept my insurance. NOTE: I went in today and asked for the office manager and she isn't there. I said i had already asked her to contact me months ago. No apology by the lady at the desk. I said this time I want the dentist to contact me since the office manager never did. She said ok. The dentist was sitting in an office directly behind her. I guess I will be waiting for contact as she didn't go and let him know. This will be our final appointment. As long as you don't have time sensitive needs, don't ming paying up front and waiting for reimbursement, and rude front desk lady, then this is the place for you. Dentist and staff are friendly and clearly explain procedures. I really like at the end of the visits you get an itemized list of recommended care. I have that for future use if I don't get everything scheduled immediately.
Rita Craine
Dr Khoo and the entire staff are amazing. He fixed issues other dentists didn’t do properly which caused my teeth to crack. I wouldn’t go any where else.
Tyler Schultz
After passing out and breaking my tooth clean off, Dr. Khoo and the team did everything they could to get me in as soon as possible and made the whole experience as quick and painless as he could
Kyle Runion
Long wait times in the afternoon, upwards of 45 minutes. The office called the day before my appointment to reschedule twice and didn't have much availability either time. Polite service.
Kasi Vissu
Very comfortable and friendly staff. The dentist is very friendly and explained all the details about my dental health. The extraction process is very smooth!
Peter Juarez
Establishment was very clean employees are very professional doctor was very explanatory and procedure went well and very impressed
Roxana Stewart
Called to make an appointment and obviously they didn't think they could get enough money out of me. She was making all sorts of excuses and telling me they would most likely refer me.

Cordelia Jewell
Tide Dental has done amazing work restoring my teeth. They are detail- oriented and communicate expectations well. They listened to what was important to me and made a plan based on my preferences!
Shannon McBroom
Very nice people!! Made sure I knew every step or move they were making next, sat and explained stuff to make sure I understood everything, very patient, i would highly recommend!
laura laurel
Friendly staff. Dr was very nice and really explained everything to me patiently and clearly i left confident and comfortable leaving my dental needs in their hands. I look forward to getting all my dental needs done by Tide dental.
Elizabeth McGee
My husband Ronald had a very good experience at Tide Dental. He was pleased with their work. His was only for a relign of bottom dentures and hopes it solves his problem.
Michael Velasquez
Well I am not the most excited when going to dentist. But going to Tide sure makes things easy. Great staff and very thorough with cleanings and patience. Especially when they take the time make sure you’re comfortable.
Destrianna Moses
This office is great! Everyone is extremely sweet and easy going. My kids love it and so do I. Always very easy anytime we go. They make it a great experience even bringing 2 kids along and having to stop for bathroom breaks. Love it here!
Zachary Morgan
A very good dental practice! I'm a person who is deathly afraid of dental procedures and Dr. Khoo set my mind at ease over any questions I had and as far as my tooth extraction, no pain at all!
Kevin Schiller
Scheduling was quick and easy, less then 10 minutes from when I arrived to being taken back and the appointment started. All my questions were answered quickly and follow up appointments scheduled quickly. Outstanding service.
Katelyn White
Very disappointed in the staff here. I have been a patient for a year and today is the first time I got all the work that was supposed to be done that day completed, only because I insisted due to my insurance for the year not being used up yet. There is also a concern for the general cleanliness of this facility. The floors have not been mopped (pictured) in quite some time and there is visible dirt and grime in every corner of this facility. When I brought these concerns calmly and politely to the office manager she blatantly told me to find another dentist if I don’t like it. Unfortunately my insurance is only accepted here. Looks like I will be going through the process of changing insurances. If your office manager has an attitude of “it is what it is” rather than “there’s always room for improvement” you need a new office manager.
Jonathan Sharpless
This is a wonderful place. Wicked nice people! 100% recommend them to fix your teeth needs.

Good service, friendly staff. Satisfied with doctor and all staff. Will recommend Tide Dental to family and friends.
Amelia De La Rosa
The workers are very nice and helpful. I have a great experience when I go for cleaning my teeth and if I have other work done .
Shae Campion
Excellent, friendly service both at the front desk and in the chair. Dentist talks over care plans with you, is straight forward, caring, and respectful of your decisions. Office was also very clean and social distancing and masks were enforced.
Meagan GONZALEZ
The last cleaning visit was disappointing because I waited for almost an hour for them to tell me the hygienist is running late would you like the doctor to do it. I didn't want to wait any longer so I said okay for the doctor to do the cleaning. Everything was fine but she didn't polish my teeth because she said I had no stains. If I am paying for the cleaning I would like to have the polish. It's the best part of cleaning your teeth!! I am trying to get a cleaning done somewhere else and now I can't because my insurance won't pay for another cleaning. It was a waist. Also the cleaning before this one I was told I had 4 cavities. I had went to another dentist 6months before this and was fine had no cavities. But I went ahead anyway and paid almost 400$ to get them filled. But I read other reviews and.see people complaining about this. Makes me wonder
Jackson Reed
Had to to get a cleaning, 2 teeth with decay cleaned and fillings for them and another filling for a chipped tooth. Staff was very considerate of pain and made sure to use enough anesthesia to keep me from feeling any pain whatsoever. Definitely will be my go to as long as I’m in Corpus!
Michele Taylor
I’m extremely disappointed in the way you treat your customers especially those who are in an emergency situation. I called your office twice and left voice messages because no one answered, I have filled out the appointment request form on your website twice to request an appointment and I had a text message from you that I replied to to set up my next appointment. ALL OF THESE METHODS WENT COMPLETELY UNANSWERED!!! I need an appointment ASAP. I have a tooth that needs to be pulled immediately. I have headaches and can barely turn my head because of the pain. An answer to one of my requests would have been nice. Tell me something…… but to feel ignored by a supposedly reputable business is just ridiculous, uncaring and unethical. I wanted to make sure and inform everyone to what they can expect. My insurance doesn’t give many choices on providers so I feel stuck.!! Please contact me ASAP.
Cheyenne Sutherland
Short wait times. Calm and clean environment. All Doctors very nice, helpful and friendly. Smooth dental work.
Matilda Sanchez
Dr.Khoo and his staff are beyond amazing. As soon as we walk in the door we are greeted with a smile front the front desk staff. Dr Khoo is so patient and very understanding with younger patients. My 7yr old son had some work done today and Dr.Khoo explained every step of the process and made sure he was comfortable before advancing with anything that needed to be done. This kind of bedside manner is what's needed to shape our youths confidence and comfort about coming to the dentist. Excellent job to the entire Tide dental team.
Amber Magnus
The staff is super friendly and the dentist always answers any concerns or questions I have. They also were able to catch a medical condition my daughter had that no one had noticed yet. We were able to get it corrected immediately and all is well now. Highly recommend them!
Deirdre Keese
I needed to find a dentist due to years of neglecting to go. I am very glad I found Tide Dental when I did. I had a broken tooth and no idea how many cavities. I was so nervous about going and how much it was going to cost. I thought I'd be in a lot more debt. But everyone was very friendly and addressed all of my concerns. I had to get a crown and several old fillings redone. I just got done with my appointment for the temporary crown and I don't think it could have gone better. Going to the dentist for any reason isn't anyone's idea of fun. But they were very attentive and nice. I didn't experience much pain at all, just the numbing needle. And the doctor had suggestions to finish off my fillings at the same time I get the permanent crown cemented. I am grateful that I can do that instead of a ton of extra appointments like I've had to do in the past. I highly recommend Tide Dental. It's the best Dental Office I have been to.
T M
Waste of my time going for my first visit. Normally most dentist would see you for your first visit and will clean your teeth, but this dental I would never go back too. Pathetic
Samantha Garcia
Would totally recommend! Great service, very nice, and they always explain everything!
Valerie Salazar
Love the new doctor! He has the best attitude and lots of passion. Sad he leaves soon but glad he’s here for the short time, I’m sure the doctor he trains will be just as good!
Leslie Nails
Great office! helpful, nice, friendly, clean, up today technology, quick and professional.

Tide Dental is the best dental clinic! The staff are so friendly and kind. Dr. Khoo takes the time to answer your questions and discuss options that work best for you. They truly care about your dental health!
Kellie Elaine
Super friendly staff. I felt really comfortable. It did take a little long for me to be seen but they apologized several times for the wait. The dentist talked with me about what I wanted and options and actually listened to me. She was great!
Rachel Lauren Durham
Went in for a cleaning and exam. The staff was incredibly courteous and the office neat and clean. There was no crowding and I felt completely at ease the entire time. Great dentist, too.
Kimberly Owens
Professional, very friendly staff. The Dr. was informative and took time and care with me. Very clean
Rolando Moreno
The staff is always friendly and they do amazing work! I had neglected my dental health for years after getting braces and in the past year Tide has assessed and corrected any problems I had. Definitely recommend if you're searching for somewhere to meet all your dental needs.
Reanin Garcia
I have been going to Tide Dental for at least 3 years now and I’ve never had an issue! The Dental Hygienist there is AMAZING! But I have to say, for my 6th month cleaning the Dental Hygienist wasn’t in and the doctor did my cleaning....worst cleaning ever! It probably took 10 minutes altogether! You’d think if the doctor was going to do it, it would be a pretty good job but definitely not! He got water all over my face and the tooth polish fell in my hair...it’s also a problem that no one told me she would be out and if I had a choice to reschedule. The other tech asked if I wanted to change to a different day when I was already in the chair....don’t recommend getting a cleaning from the actual dentist, go figure ??♀️
J T
Reoccurring visit, have a very positive impression. Dr. Was very knowledgeable. Hygienes was very professional, took the time to explain every procedure. Went above and beyound expectations. Answered all my concerns. Receptionist was very helpful. This is what a Dentist visit should be like.
Melanie Ochoa
Love taking my kids here...Staff is friendly and never have to wait long...
Valerie Yanez
Friendly and courteous staff. My husband and I are loving our experience with them. I recommend my friends and family to this location.
Edith Castillo
Personnel always friendly. If you get a quote for services, they stick to it. I would prefer not to wait so long to be seen, but I think it’s the norm for almost any medical office... overall, I do recommend.
Jav Salinas
The staff was prompt and professional during the whole time. They not only did what they were supposed they listened to my concerns. Not only was Dr. Khoo very meticulous and curious, he had me out in no time. Thank you Tide Dental
Lucy G-Miller
I got a root canal a year ago, and I still have pain. They recommended me to go see a dental specialist. I can’t believe this, I do not recommend this place at all! Very disappointed, and what a waste of money!
Edward Lopez
Great experience, went in for new patient exam. Everyone was nice & extremely polite. The inside was thoroughly cleaned. Also phenomenal in the aspect of educating me on everything going on during the visit. Overall great experience from the moment you walk in to the moment leave.
James D
We all know about going to a dentist.from the staff behind the desk all the way up to the doctor they were very very sweet people and made me calm down just by them talking to me they're very professional they know exactly what they're doing ****.. sum up (GO TIDE) LOL really good people
Texas Baseball

Sam Fuller
The Tide nurses were professional..focused & streamlined in their processing me thru so I could get in & out. The Dr was friendly & educated me on my teeth. I had a heart attack & they held off from doing work on my teeth for it could of hurt me. They will contact my cardiologist first before they proceed. I liked that they looked out for me first before proceeding. They built a trust into me on my 1st visit. I'll be back!
KEVIN ANTONELLI
Staff and Dr's at Tide are the Best. Such a great experience. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Jesse Chaires
The staff were so professional they went through the process very well. I was very impressed with the Dentist. He was honest on my results. I will go back and get my teeth work done.

Quisha Elizondo
The staff at Tide definitely goes above and beyond for their patients! Being a new patient, Veronica initially took care of getting in touch with my insurance personally to sort everything out. Dr. Amisha is also amazing! Out of all the dental experiences I’ve had, the experience with her was the best. She was very thorough, knowledgeable and genuine in our conversation about my dental health. The rest of the staff that I encountered throughout my visit(s) were very friendly, genuine and welcoming as well! On a much more surface note, the interior aesthetic of Tide is so modern and trendy, unlike the usual dental/doctor’s office. I definitely recommend Tide Dental and look forward to my visits here.
Lavisha Kelly
I went here for a dental checkup/cleaning a few months ago when i first moved to Corpus Christi. The wait time was TERRIBLE! With an appointment i waited nearly two hours, they had the sandlot 2 playing and i watched the entire movie plus midway into another one by the time i was called back. They took a ton of pictures of my mouth/teeth but not once did i see the tool cleaned. Im not even sure they changed the plastic before putting the tool in my Mouth. The tool was covered in plastic, they picked it up and just put it in my mouth which made me very uneasy. The entire time i was there there were children running around the office. I think the children belonged to one of the hygienists because one of them walked in the room where i was getting my teeth cleaned in the middle of my cleaning! The hygienist told him to go play and laughed it off but i thought it to be incredibly unprofessional and it made me very uncomfortable. They lady did NOT clean my teeth. She looked around at them and said they looked clean. The dentist came in and spent five minutes with me TOPS. a asian man, he seemed impatient like he would ask me questions and then seem annoyed at the time i was taking to answer him. I spent nearly 3hrs there and got seen for maybe 15min of that. I do NOT feel my teeth were cleaned properly compared to the type of dental care i am accustomed to. The place was just not a good dental office in my opinion. I will not be returning or giving them any of my business
Patty Kraft
Doctor Revawala was very thorough & explain that she would not feel teeth until they absolutely needed it.
Johnny Holt
Oh my gosh, y'all are amazing ! So professional. So courteous. Patient and willing to answer all your questions. I will recommend y'all to all my coworkers at Flour Bluff ISD. It started with a genuinely cheery greeting by name. Then, Jessica just set a stellar experience in motion. Really liked Dr. Amesha. What a blessing. And Miss Shawna, so informative, so professional. Appreciated her "no-nonsense" approach. What more can I say. Y'all are absolutely the best ! Thank y'all ! God bless y'all ! ??✌??
Linda Heier
Provided accurate check-in info and greeted promptly. No long wait. Listened to concerns and offered remedies.

Lourdes Brambil
I just want to say that Dr. Khoo, Jenna, and all the staff I encountered were very friendly. My experience was so comforting that I can’t wait to get started on my treatment plan! The main thing for me is that I did not feel judged:) I needed a lot of work to be done and they explained it in good detail and allowed me to make the choices of what I wanted to be done and in what order:) I can’t express it enough, how friendly and super efficient they are. I would definitely recommend Tide Dental!

Catalina Estrada
I needed an extraction of a root tip an was very anxious and stressed. Upon my arrival I was greeted by friendly staff. After xrays & Dr exam I was informed of needing pre med due to hip replacement I thought I was going to be sent away and rescheduled To my surprise Dr said take Rx to Walgreens and come right back. I was more anxious by then but to my surprise my Dentist extracted the root tip within 15 min. Excellent job!!! I will return for further work I have found my perfect dental/Dentist office❤
Arash Ghamari
I went to the Tide dental today again. Dr. Khoo worked on my tooth as usual. He is the best dentist I have ever had in my whole life without any doubt. He is extremely professional and knowledgable. I have been to other dentists before and I can see the difference.
Teresa Short
Friendly, no long waiting, informative about procedures, price fair. Awesome experience so far :)
Erin Dunn
I saw 3 different people during my visit. A tech, a hygienist, and a doctor. Each person took their time with me, explained everything they were doing, and did a super thorough job. Bonus points: the place looks really nice and pretty updated. I was visiting another dentist in town for the past 2 years.. thank goodness they stopped taking my insurance or I wouldn’t have found Tide Dental! :)
Christy Sanchez
I’m so excited about my experience here that I’ve been telling everyone about them! They explain everything that’s going on with your dental health, have discount plans available, and even have TVs to watch right above you while you’re getting worked on. They will be my dentist place for my whole family now!
Vivian Burke
Appointment was very good I am very satisfied with you all and hope to see again soon everyone was so friendly and really happy to see that.Thank you so very much
Adam Elwan
Honestly, I love coming here. Everyone that I have dealt with here is kind, honest, and will help you to the best of their ability. I highly recommend Tide Dental to anyone that is looking for a new dentist.
James
This was my first experience with Tide. Was kept in the waiting room 50 minutes past time of appointment. Then told a special type of x-ray was required, costing an extra $76. I left without getting a simple cleaning and checkup. I don't appreciate my time being wasted or asked to pay for extra services. Lousy front door practices don't cut it with me!
donald new jr.
I've been going here for years now. New location, but same great stuff members. The only negative is waiting. However, they're getting better at it. I know I'm not going anywhere. These guys are super awesome.
Ice Weiss
I was charged quite a bit of money just to get x rays and a quick “exam” of my teeth. They proceeded to tell me I have 4 cavities and that I’d have to pay nearly $700, with insurance, to get them taken care of. This is absolutely ridiculous and these people are just taking money from others.
Glenn Stock
The data manager and assistant couldn't find my dental insurance information thru my medical insurance provider and had me wait an hour and half for any service. What is worse is that the data manager new my dental insurance provider and didn't even help her own worker find my information as I waited in the lobby for so long. Worse customer service experience that I've ever had in corpus christi! It's a shame for such a highly rated that is place ran by paper pushers who can't even do their jobs!
William Worley
Very professional and polite. I feel like the people that work here want me to be comfortable and happy with the services they provide. So far I am more than happy.
Scott Gonzales
This is the best dentist I have ever had. Dr. Amisha and the staff here I professional and genuine. I am always made to feel like a part of the family when I’m here. You can tell that these people have a passion for what they do. Family friendly. I’m a patient for life. THANKS GUYS!
Joel Salgado
The dental personnel is good. The Administration side is bad. They overcharge you based on "estimates" right after discussing the dental plan coverage. Not trustworthy.
Rose Kiyoshi
Best dental in Corpus Christi The orthodontists here are so attentive and take their time when working with your teeth. The techs are very kind along with the front office people! Love it here, would highly recommend

Fantastic care from the front desk all the way to the doctors! Everybody is so very understanding!! I have to say I am amazed at Tide Dental. Needed a deep clean so anesthesia was necessary. They were so sweet about my wimpiness. If you are a chicken about dentists (like me) then THIS is the place to go!
Pamela Rivera
I like that all employees kept asking me if I was ok and if I needed anything. Great office and even better staff! I recommend for anyone that is hesitant to go to the dentist, to try Tide Dental!
S.D.R.
I like the doctor, but front desk it’s hopeless. They are not rude nor friendly. Talking to an automated answering services it’s a good comparison of how they treat a patient.
Morgan Jones
My experience with Tide was awful. I never even made it in for an exam. My initial appointment with Tide was rescheduled for 30 minutes earlier than the original time and nobody bothered to call. I left work early, called them on my way, and the guy I talked to said my appointment was for 4:00, not 4:30. I called right back and talked to a nicer lady at the desk and she told me my appointment was for 4:30 and didn't understand why it changed. The customer service provided by the guy was horrible. So, that appointment was cancelled because my time was switched without me knowing. I even confirmed a few days before the appointment. Mistake are understandable, but it's not understandable to be rude. I rescheduled for yesterday at 3:00 PM. I had already talked to the original guy over the phone about all of my insurance information. I arrived about 10 minutes early and filled out yet another set of paperwork - almost all the same information I told them over the phone a week prior. I then proceeded to wait 40 minutes. When I asked the receptionist how much longer the wait would be, she hardly bothered to look up from her computer and told me she had no idea. She didn't bother to check or to apologize for my wait. My appointment was at 3:00 PM. There were only 2 people who went back while I was waiting. When it hit 40 minutes of waiting, I told her I would just need to cancel my appointment. She replied that I had X-Rays and they only have one X-Ray room. I'm not sure what this had to do with my wait. I'm a new patient who had to have x-rays, this was known information for everyone involved when I made the appointment. They chose this time, not me. Making a patient wait almost an hour for an appointment is really not respectful of their time and there are plenty of other dental offices in Corpus you can choose. Between the customer service and the wait time, I would most definitely never recommend Tide Dental. There was no redeeming themselves from the first mess up and I didn't sense that they cared whatsoever about the lost business. I would recommend customer service training for the receptionists involved, if it weren't for them, I might've been more patient about the initial mistake and the wait time.
Jose Urrutia
Had a great experience at Tide Dental. The staff was very friendly. I will recommend to friends and family.
Eddie Aguilar
They give great customer service, they keep you at ease while you are there. They also do great work.
Katie Wylie
This place is a TOTAL SCAM!!!! Avoid at all costs!!!! Go anywhere else if possible!! It doesn’t matter if you know your insurance benefits or not, they will do everything they can to screw you over! Plus they told me another patients information over the phone like it wasn’t a big deal just because I said I knew them (which I truly did). That is highly illegal!! DO NOT GO HERE!!!
Jeff Wylie
They will tell you that your insurance will cover everything, and then bill you anyway!!! Office staff will not address the issue at all!!! Go anywhere else!!! Edit and more details for their response: I have contacted them regarding the bill, and they refuse to admit they did anything wrong. I asked them numerous times, and they assured my insurance would cover everything so that I would not be billed, but they are still billing me. This happened on both of my visits. On the second visit, I literally told the lady "I think y'all did that last time, and my insurance won't cover it again." They assured me it would be covered. In addition, the only way I know I have a balance is because my fiancé was going to go there with the same insurance, and they told her the insurance would not cover everything. They then looked me up and gave her all my info, and told her the insurance did not cover all of my bill either. I never received a paper bill, and they should not be giving out my information without my permission. They should also honor what they tell you. They claim the insurance lied to them, but I told them I thought they were wrong and not do things that were not covered. If they were unsure, they should have told me, and I would have called the insurance. The insurance claims they explained what was covered to them in detail.
Jessica Davis
DO NOT COME HERE The dentist is very inexperienced. She is not sympathetic and does not admit to her mistakes. I went in for a tooth ache. They filled four of my teeth and left the one that was hurting WITH NO FILLING . When I went back in to let them know. The dentist said there was nothing she could do and prescribed me a toothpaste for the pain. Then asked me if I would still be coming in to get my tooth extracted at the end of the week. I SAID NO. Why would I let you extract a tooth and you couldn’t even target the tooth that was hurt by looking at the X rays. When she pulled out the X rays she noticed she missed a tooth. She didn’t apologize. She just prescribed toothpaste. Stay away from this place. Oh yeah then they sent me a bill two months late for $12.50 with no explanation. Save your money and your teeth. This place is a joke.
Natalie Hayes
Deserves 0 stars... had 2 wisdom teeth removed and pieces of tooth was still protruding from my gums. Went back they has to go back in and "dig" the bone as they called it out. Havin to numb me and all that. 3 weeks after the last invasive digging I STILL have something poking from my gums! Right when I i was ready to go back in to be tortured again I managed to scrap it out with my nail. NOT TO MENTION THAT FILLED THE WRONG TOOTH ON MY DAUGHTER!!! RUN THE OTHER WAY!!! NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS PLACE.
Elva Jimenez Davila
Great staff! They take the time to explain in detail the procedures and work that needs to be done. Very soothing and welcoming environment. I hate dentist visits, but I actually don't mind keeping my appointments : )
Ray Ayers
I went here to get a root canal done. I was extremely nervous but the staff here were amazing. The dr. and her assistant were very friendly and kept making sure I was not feeling any pain. I go back in 2 weeks to get the crown on and I won’t be as nervous as I was this time. So if you are looking for a dentist I highly recommend Tide Dental & Orthodontics.
Amanda Rodriguez
I really love Tide Dental!!They are very attentive to patient needs. I first went when I had a nagging toothache and no dentist.. ouch!! They took me right in, gave me a proper treatment plan, and answered all my questions. Loved them so much, now my whole family goes there.
George Lopez
put 1 star because i cant put any lower than that. worst dental office in the country. military so i do travel to different locations. could stay here and write a book but dont got that time. main reason i am leaving this office is because they will give you exams before ACTUALLY being due, so insurance cant cover basic checks. (frequency of exams). wont know until everything is done and 2 or 3 weeks later. they wont work with you at all, the fault is yours for not knowing or having to call insurance yourself. frustrating, NEVER AGAIN will i ever go here
Addy with a Y
The staff was very kind, and told me what was wrong with a tooth of mine, just a chip, that no other dentist would even acknowledge. It made me feel loads better about it.
Cyndi Rosales
Very disappointed! I've been trying for 2 weeks to make a appointment ( left a message over phone and online) and have not recieved a call back. Make me wonder if they even care for the patients they have already smh..

Zuleika Brana
I went to Tide Dental for the first time and considering that I am a coward for dentists, the visit was a success. The staff is friendly and professional. I recommend it.
LYDIA MARTINEZ
We waited only 2 minutes, n my son who was in a tremendous amount of pain was seen...they explain everything that needed to get Done. And the most affordable route to go...I highly recommend them. Excellent people skill n service.
Katelyn Redding
Super easy to make an appointment and you don’t wait for hours to see the dentist! The staff is super friendly and the dentist is personable. The hygienist is amazing with her work and she gives great advice and tips. I highly recommend them! Their office upgrade is amazing!
Jervis Richards
Nice staff, very fast getting me in and were straight forward with treatment. They didn't try to give me treatment I didn't really need and actually wanted what was the best fit for me.
adrianna Gearhart
The staff is always very friendly & helpful. They always treat my daughter the best. They were really great in helping me choose what would be best for me as well. Been going here with my daughter for 4 yrs now. Wishing I would have started seeing them myself earlier. They're really just wonderful.
Notkichiro
I called yesterday 8/30/18 because I herd from my co workers that they were great but after today I'll probably never go back you see I called yesterday and spoke to a women about making an appointment I even asked her if they took my insurance she told me yes and even made me an appointment for 8/31/18 at 9:00am I arrived and waited at the door until they open right at 9m I walked in and signed I'm after a women that was in front of me after a few minutes of being there the lady at the front desk asked for my id and insurance card I handed her both then waited a few minutes later she called me to fill out information as I proceeded to fill put the form she called me up and said that they didn't take take my insurance (Mind you I took off work today and will not be getting paid for taking this day off that was scheduled) I was so furious and embarrassed that I just left I do have bills to pay they should of called me yesterday and told me that didn't take that insurance and that there was a miss understanding I'm upset because my co workers has the same exact insurance and she said she got work done at the same place so either they are lien or the rules or policy suddenly changed or maybe who ever scheduled the appointment was new and doesn't know what she was doing or maybe they don't ecept AFRICAN Americans
VALERIE Pequeno
Staff was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and worked really well with my son. Their new office is very clean and modern, with screens on the ceiling with kid friendly movies playing that distracted my son from the cleaning. Really helpful staff when it came time to verify insurance. The whole process was stress free and quick, in and out within an hr. Their doctor was very informative, gave the best option for the treatment plan, I highly recommend their office if you're looking for a new family dentist!
Abbey W.
Staff were very friendly and genuinely wanted the best possible treatment option for my family and our budget!
Juan Garcia
Don’t ever go here to ask if they accept your insurance, they wouldn’t know. I took faith in they’re word and even made an appointment with them confident that I would get my cleaning done and it turned out that they did not accept my insurance, unfortunately for me my internship had come to an end and with it my insurance and I was unable to reschedule any where else. They even held my insurance card in they’re hand.
Rosie Deleon
I was blown away with this experience my other dentist didn't do what they did to my teeth x-ray each and Every One my teeth the explained this dentist explain each and every detail of my teeth the other dentist didn't even do that but I'm very satisfied with his dentist
Abel Garcia
I highly recommend Tide Dental. My family and are very satisfied getting our dental work there. They have highly talented people employed there all the way from the receptionist to the orthodontists. Yes! Highly professional.
Adam Garza
Since relocating from the mall.The place feels more like an office.The wait was average from other appointments.The staff up front seemed friendl.Going to the back.i felt comfortable.The workers when I went to the back were friendly somewhat talkative and engaging in conversation.which made time move ahead quicker.I did love the TVs towards the ceiling so that when you're lying back in the chair you get to watch a movie of your selection.helped to forget they were working on my teeth with the movie going.Biggest and 5th star was that my 4 year old boy went back with me and the staff were extra friendly to him.Thank you.i love the work done to my teeth and I def would recommend that you go there.thanks Tide Dental.

Not a bad experience at all. I was completely nerve wrecked about this being my first time in a dental office visit in my whole life. It wasnt as bad as i expected it to be. It was a wait. Y, because its like a doctors office. People get mad for a wait. What do u expect its a doctors visit. Always show up 30 minutes early. For insurnace, Ids, paperwork and confirmations. Mind u children go there to so put on your patience face. One thing that i strongly advise. STRONGLY ADVISE. is the Priority Dental plan. A brocure in the corner of the room. Its $77 for the entire year. With major dicounts on a list of treatments the dentist performs. Ex. Out of pocket for a tooth extraction is $280. With the plan is 210. Maybe some might find something better somewhere I dont know. But i dont have dental insurance. And the visit itself is $77 out of pocket without any insurance or plan. So. You could pay out of pocket woth no plan n come back n pay fulk price. Or you could sign up for $77 and come back later and pay at a dicounted price. Its not monthly 77 its annual. So i could walk away n call it a year if i want too. But turns out i need a tooth pulled and a deep cleaning. Not bad for someone whos never see a dentist. Cuz i though i was gunna need dentures for never seeing a dentist. Just hope the next visit is just as good.
Ashleigh Faris
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Tide Dental. I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and was anxious about going. However, everything from making the appointment with the office staff to the visit itself was wonderful. The whole team really put me at ease and my teeth look and feel amazing after my cleaning - this is the first time ever after a cleaning that my gums did not ache. When it came time to discuss a treatment plan the assistant took the time to talk with me about the estimate and how to coordinate a time frame for having it taken care of. I will definitely be coming back thanks to the excellent care of the dentist and hygienist and the helpfulness of the great staff.
Amy F
It was my 1st time visiting so I very pleased. It was quick didn't take long at all to be seen. It was a smooth transition, you are never left alone waiting for the next step like alot of offices. Everyone was very pleasant and courteous. The front desk was welcoming which is super important to me cuz that's the 1st people you meet and gives you an impression of the business in general. I really don't like a grouchy front desk and thank gosh that was not the case here. Each staff member explained everything very well to me prior to beginning so I was comfortable. Dr. Shah was great. Explained everything, takes his time and engages really well. Great Dr! The location is also new and looks really good.They even have TVs overhead when in the exam chair so you can be distracted a bit during procedures. Bonus, it's next to my fav coffee shop. I'm glad I found this place and even set my kids up with their own apts. I definitely reccomend this office.
Jose Carrasquillo
This is a place with poor customer service so if you wanna be treated like a person go to another place.
Sarah T
My husband and i went last week to get a cleaning. They were very helpful and informative! I did some research before choosing a dentist and they stood out to me the most. They were a great choice!
Maria Alejandra Ibarra
This is my second visit to Tide Dental and both appointments the staff has been nice and patient. They explained all procedures and treatment options until I felt comfortable.
Dr. Kimberly Reinhardt
Dr. P and her staff worked wonderfully with my 7 year old son. He had a very difficult extraction and everyone worked to make it as comfortable as possible. Thank you.
bob scott
My sincere thanks for the warm friendly staff at Tide Dental. Most offices were too busy to answer a few questions and offer useful advice.....BUT.....Georgia was considerate, friendly and ever so helpful. Dr. Shah was also courteous, patient, and spent a lot of time answering every question I had. I appreciate his honest sincerity. Further, Shawna the hygienist was very professional through and expertly cleaned my teeth. This was a wonderfully pleasant and relaxed experience which I will gladly repeat and recommend ALL the friendly staff at Tide Dental.
Ernestina Martinez
Had a very satisfying experience. The dentist and staff are very caring and informative. I strongly recommend Tide Dental to anyone needing dental work.
nick
Was a great place very good dental hygienist bake was Shanna. Cleaned the hell out my kids teeth.
Eryn OConnor
The staff was so kind and so informative. They showed me my x rays and pointed out exactly what was wrong and what a perfectly heathly mouth should look like. I asked for a treatment that was more expensive than what I needed and asked why I couldn't get that done and the dental hygentist said ," because it would be unethical. She said she wouldnt do it simply because she'd be overcharging me for something i didnt need." So that was totally unlike the majority of drs offices I've been to. Most just wanna rack that bill up as high as possible and they don't care if u need it or not,,, its all abt sales. But not Tide. They are so honest and thorough...I was very impressed.
Brenda Reimers
I am normally mortified of going to the dentist, but Dr Panigrahi and her assistant Kristine are awesome. Both are gental and patient and made me feel comfortable and welcomed. I am so thankful to not just Dr P and Kristine, but the whole staff. They are all very nice and very helpful. I love the text reminders and easy access to a variety of accomodating appointment times. I highly recommend Tide Dental. Thank you to all staff there. Brenda Reimers

I am always very nervous about coming to the dentist but the care everyone gives you here at Tide Dental is so kind and everyone takes their time to make sure you are comfortable and ok during your visits.
Debra Molina
I was nervous when I got there I don't like needles but they kept talking to me and help me relax my experience was great I'm comfortable going back and getting my teeth cleaned
Kevin Nelson
Very quick and easy. Last-minute appointment was easy to get. Even got my teeth cleaned by the doctor!
Emidy Yanc
Great people very nice always willing to help and answer all your questions always very friendly
Jenni Hintz
I had a nice visit today at Tide Dental. They are always so nice and take the time to talk to me. Very caring and make the dental experience less stressful ?
LARISSA Ramos
Dr. P and her staff are awesome. My kids and nephew love going to see them and they are good at explaining to the kids what's getting done to their teeth. I don't agree with other reviews but I know it's in a mall that needs more tlc. We are glad to go here.
j mar
The staff was professional. My visit was smooth and quick. The Dentist answered questions pertaining to my oral care that were helpful in resolving them.
David Irwin
Very professional and friendly staff, concern that the treatment is a comfortable experience for the patient. I recommend Tide for any procedure. I had an extraction on an upper tooth and had no problem afterwards.
amy htims
Extremely professional and so friendly! Tide Dental took wonderful care of my son's teeth. Highly recommend!
C is for Lambchops
I went in for a cleaning and left the place paying $60 for my cleaning service and with a suggested treatment for my "cavities" which was going to cost me about $500 WITH my insurance with NO deductible... I have never once had a cavity in my life and every dentists and oral surgeons I've seen before told me that I has excellent teeth always, so I was pretty surprised in every way here... Took my kid in the week after and left with about $1000 suggested treatment and thought something was odd. I also received a bill in the mail from my insurance company few weeks later, I called my insurance and asked why I received a bill because my plan had no deductibles and they told me its because this dental office charges WAY more than other dental office for their services and that was the reason why they gave me the treatment plan with bills that I'd have to pay the rest. I immediately did some research on better dental offices and made a visit and I was told that I had zero cavities that needed to be worked on. ..... so yeah..... Never again and lesson learned. Do some research before making appointments rather picking places because it's convenient...
Andie Cabrera
My husband and I are both very pleased with the quality of service we get from both Doctors and Staff. Everyone is very nice and helpful! Thanks for great customer service!
Jenna Ramirez
Everyone is very professional and nice. The staff communicates well and explains treatment plans. I highly recommend this place.
Michael Thomas
The staff was great even after I forgot to tell the assistant about my main concern about a tooth but told the doctor. I felt at home and it was very close to were I stay so making another appointment was very easy and they had appointments when I needed it. I will be head back there for sure.
Rick Rosales
They explained their care plan for me and gave me options... On top of prompt friendly service.
Emiliano cabrera
From beginning to end all the staff was very nice and pleasant. When I left they gave me a very precise plan for the treatment and prices as well. To all the staff there at Tide Dental great job thank all of you very much
Tayla Egan
Tide dental is wonderful! Very nice staff, and the ladies all made conversation with me rather than keeping to themselves. I recommend to everyone :)
Marisa Martinez
Tide Dental was able to get me appointment when I desperately needed one. I had been suffering from the pain of a wisdom tooth. They did an exellent job on my cleaning. They let me know clearly what the plan of action would be for the procedures I was needing. They did an amazing job!
Joy Miller
This was our second visit and both visits we have been treated so amazing. The front desk girls are very quick and caring and the treatment was quick. We went in within 5 minutes and got out much quicker than expected. Thank you!!
Stephanie Zook
I went to Tide Dental for a toothache and was treated amazing. They were able to see me right away and had the tooth extracted one week later upon the completion of antibiotics. The staff is organized, courteous, and professional. I recommend others visit their clean and sanitary facility.
Gina Gomez Bitela
The staff are very courteous and professional. They explain everything and answer all questions. They are honest and the service is awesome. I enjoy getting my teeth cleaned at my checkups and had no problems with the treatments I've had done there.
Marcia Brownlee
Have had great experience with them so far. They are all very courteous and friendly. They got me in the same day on an emergency.
Amber Oldham
I went to in on 11/12/16 to get work done. My wife called and couldn't get anyone to answer the phone to let them know I was running 15 minutes late from work. I got my work done and am still in pain over a week later so my wife made me another appointment to have things looked at. Once again she could get no one to answer the phone you have to listen to a very long voicemail and leave a message for a call back. Finally when she did get someone to answer they were chomping food and eating and told us we wouldn't be seen until Monday. Once my wife started getting upset that I was in pain and needed to be seen they became rude. I got to the office and got called back to see the dentist by "come on bud" not only was the front desk rude, the dental asst, and the dentist were completely unprofessional. Calling your dentist after you got a procedure done and them chomping food and then telling you that you are rude is beyond to me. I sat in the chair getting lectured about how rude my wife was instead of getting my teeth fixed. Speaking of my teeth they are not fixed. She told me I might just be in pain and have sensitivity for years and I was making up the pain. I used the rest of my insurance benefits for the year on the work I got done and now have to sit here in pain until January. I would not recommend this dental office to my dog. Worse experience ever. You should be able to trust your dentist and not walk out in more pain than you went in for.
Lauren Denver-Potter
Tide dental was assigned as our provider by our dental insurance. I was nervous at first about this, but now I'm glad they assigned us to them. The initial visit was thorough and the dentist was very friendly. I went back and had my teeth cleaned and the hygienist was professional and very friendly. She described everything she did during the whole process and why she had to do certain things. The dentist even popped in to see how everything was even though I wasn't seeing her that day. Great dental team. The only drawback was the location (the old mall). Hoping one day they can branch out to another location.
Ysaura Magnusson
This was my first appointment in twelve years and my daughters' first appointments ever. My 4 year old was a nervous wreck the whole time but they were extremely patient and kind with her. I myself had quite a wait, but it was worth it because they took their time with my exam and cleaning and made sure to do the job right, and well. Very cool.
Aletia Stewart
Tide Dental was honest, professional and very clean. I went in with a quote of dental work from another local dentist office with a total of over $4500 worth of work being needed one crown and a deep cleaning with some antibiotic shoots for each tooth (which I don't need) and that's after what I had to pay after my insurance. My new total and better quality of service and treatment is less than $1000. The staff is great and professional and take the time to talk to you and explain things and work out a treatment plan you can afford.

Friendly and the staff is amazing. Affordable and helps with insurance our questions.
Ashlee Williamson
Tide Dental are very friendly and helpful. They get you in and out of your appointment within a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend.
Jacob Guzman
This place is amazing i would definitely recommend this place. Great staff and great customer service
JoeyandMeg Hammock
Dr. P was very friendly and helpful. I had not been to the dentist in years and it was a very good experience.
Cynthia Allison
Not satisfied at all!! Went in for the first time and they have the television on Freeform channel which was very inappropriate for the children in the waiting room. A mother had to close her child's eyes during a scene. The place was dirty. The doctor who cleaned my teeth only cleaned the front and no fluoride was given. Don't feel like my insurance should even pay for this type of service. Staff was friendly and so was the doctor but not satsfied with the service.
Norma Quinones
Everyone was so helpful!! Very professional and knowledgeable staff...They are really interested in what's best for you as a patient!! Highly recommend!!
Patti Shellenbarger
Friendly, and affordable. Dr is knowledgeable and truthful. I feel she's trustworthy
Lina Martinez
She made sure I was numb and did a great job. I haven't been to the dentist in a while, but I'm glad I came here.
Rosalinda Urrea
I am truly impressed by everyone that works here. Everyone is very nice. I am happy with their services. I am glad I changed Dentist for my family, it was the right choice. I am very happy that I do not have to send any of my kids to the back with out me. I am able to stay by their side and watch what care is given.
Jennifer Pineda
Before my visit with Tide i was going to Aspen and they did a terrible job on filling my cavities, i went online to get look for Aspen's number to schedule a cleaning and i started reading the reviews and did they have alot of bad reviews-one patient recommended Tide and gave a wonderful review!! I would like to thank that review for the recommendation to Tide Dr. H was very thorough in explaining everything. I like the service so that i even took my kids the following week of my visit! highly recommend!
Carolyn Ramirez
This was my dad's first visit to a dentist ever. He was extremely impressed from the moment he walked in the door. The staff was very attentive and courteous, and the equipment was modern and up to date. Dr. H was very thorough and explained the work to be done in a very professional manner.
Norman Moya
I I really enjoyed Tide dentals expertise and they have a lot of knowledge. They are very good at what they do. I was impress with all the work that was done on me. Most important was the way they treated me. I really appreciated how nice they were. I can tell they love what they do. Made you feel very comfortable. Like they knew me, and knew how I wanted to b treated. I will go to them from now on, and will highly recommend TIDE DENTAL to everyone I know! Thank you DOCTOR AND STAFF!!! Loved IT!!!! Oh! By the way. I will do more flossing! I promise! ><>

D'Andra Jacinto
They were able to take of everything I needed! Very nice and explained everything.
Amanda Patlan
I have 3 boys that I take to Tide Dental. I also go myself. A major plus side for me is that they scheduled all 3 boys on the same day. Most offices won't do that! Each time I go, the staff is extremely friendly. I have had insurance issues, but they worked with me without frustration. The dentists are great. They treated us like family. I was nervous to change dentists, but I am glad we did. I definitely would recommend their office!
Andrea Mayo
Friendly and knowledge staff. Not willing to work with with payment plan. Panigrahi is direct and to the point with a solution in writing and with a plan of action.
Yvonne Navarro
Dr. H is super nice! She explains the whole process with great ease. She truly cares about how you feel. The staff is really friendly! Great experience and that is not something normally said about a dentist!
Terry Ramos
Great visit at Tide Dental. Very friendly and helpful staff, Dr Sanjukta Panigrahi was awesome!! Only dislike is the office could use a little facelift. Pearly whites!!
Theresa De La Cruz
My son really liked it there. Very friendly people and very affordable for those who have no insurance. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.
Brittany Enriquez
Fast friendly service. Excellent customer service. Practically no waiting with appointment. Able to resolve my issue on first visit. I highly recommend.

I've been going to Tide Dental for the past two years and have never encountered any issues.

Horrible service, called ahead to see if they did temporary caps on 2 year olds. They told us to come in a get the estimate, when we came in to have the check up and to have the cap out on "which we knew she need a cap since her tooth was chiped" they then told us that they dont do cappings and charged us for service they really didnt provide. Im disputing the credit card charge, and will be contacting the owner for scamming us out of money since they knew they didn't do caps and we asked that the first time during the phone call we made to make sure they could do it before we came in.

Dr. H made my 9 yr old feel very comfortable. She was very professional and as my son says super cool! ?

Literally the worst dental experience I have ever had. I've never been one to fear or dread the dentist, and have also had all 4 wisdom teeth taken out as well as two rounds of braces. And this one regular checkup was by far the most awful visit to a doctor in my life. The desk staff was awesome and extremely patient with the children. They were great at getting me in as a new patient. BUT once I was taken back, it all changed. The temp space didn't look cleanly. Having never had a cavity in my life, the oral evaluation apparently showed I had 7! I denied any fillings and just wanted the cleaning. Worst. Experience. Ever. The situation was completely unprofessional, with the dentist doing most of the work as opposed to the hygienist. They were extremely rough with my mouth and I was in tears just a few moments in. I thought for sure they were causing damage. Never EVER will I again go to a 'factory' type place. My new dentist (single dentist in a family atmosphere) gave me a clean bill of health and told me they are required at those places to meet a quota. Sickening. They wanted me to pay $500 (WITH insurance) to have unnecessary work done. Seek out a famil dentist, even out of network, over Tide Dental!!!

Pam Hanna
WOW!! as a new patient, was seen within 10 minutes of arrival, received VERY courteous and quick service, got exam, x-rays, cleaning AND a filling. DDS even filed off a front tooth upon request, as a freebie. Office staff gave me a coupon and assisted me with signing up for very affordable dental insurance which reduced my total bill of $400 to $169. GREAT SERVICE!
Jessie Alvarez
For being at this dental place for the first time,they really made you feel comfortable. All employees are great.

Only general practice dentist in Corpus I could find who still does root canals without referring you to an endodontist who charges 3x more because they don't participate in insurance plans. I think the other guys have a referral scam going on in this town. Tide got me in same day, see clients on Fridays (aren't off playing golf or flying their private plane when clients really need help before the weekend!), and were super nice and professional. Kudos to Tide Dental for their awesome customer service and ability to practice true full scale dentistry. Follow up appointment for root canal three days later, and I'm even more impressed. Dr. H did the best, most painless root canal I've ever had and without nitrous. Let me emphasize, I am a baby who's never made it through other root canals without it (BAD old military dentist experience!). I've found my dentist in Corpus.
sean paulson
Great fast service. They are very nice and willing to help how ever they can. I will definitely be counting back.
Denee Owen
Everyone, and I mean everyone in the office is super sweet, empathetic and busts their bottoms to get you what you need. Dr.P is by far top notch, my favorite. She treats our whole family. We love her!!! Won't go anywhere else.

Took my son in today for an appointment that we set up on Friday. So glad they could see us on short notice & didn't have a 2-3 week wait for new patients. After reading all the reviews online, I was expecting a really long wait. Appointment was at 2:30 & we were in a room by 2:45!! I was already impressed. Dr H was so kind & thorough explaining everything along the way. She was not 'in a hurry' to move on to the next patient. Gave my son the time & attention every dentist/doctor should.
George Mclean
After calling a massive list of dental offices i found most dentists work half days on fridays, and with a broken tooth in pain only 1 office was able to get me in to pull that tooth the same day. The gave me a plan for my mouth that allowed me to pick and choose what i wanted/could afford. They even went as far to explain to me savings they offered for any work they did. Over all it was a smooth yet drawn out few hours. I can see myself coming here on the regular.
Gina Rodriguez
Paperwork for front desk was quick and painless. Pricing for treatment was very affordable with insurance. Staff is courteous and friendly. X-ray exam is fast and excellent. Compared to many other dental offices I experienced this is one of the best overall.
Pamela Delgado-Pacheco
Love this office! The staff members are super friendly. I would definitely recommend this location.
christina ommani

Patricia Gonzalez

Jeff B
DON'T BELIEVE THE FAKE REVIEWS! They're written by "people" who give 5-star reviews to dentists across the state. I actually went to Tide Dental, a sad clinic in a ghetto mall. I waited for 45 minutes, and my "cleaning" only lasted about 10. The doctor skipped a bunch of teeth and didn't even do a good job with the cleaning. I definitely won't be going back.
Jorgia Fernandez
Awesome staff great doctors... Everyone is always w a smile an treatment is always explained to our understanding... Keep the good work...
jgplaymaker0207
My family an I come to this dental office an can say that my kids enjoy coming here, they are never scared to get their check up every six months or even get treatment done. Dr Trevino an his staff are down to earth, always smiling and making our appointment at ease. I recommend this office to all my friends and family.
jazlyn gomez
I am a patient of this dental office and I love it. All the staff including Dr. TREVINO are very friendly and professional. There is always a welcoming greeting as I walk through the doors. My treatment is always explained to me so I understand. I recommend this office to all my friends.
Teri Garrison
Tide Dental was great! Staff and Doctors are courteous and patient. The office staff explains your treatment plan and they go over the billing with you til you understand. Explains what your insurance covers and what you pay. Lots of patience and smiles.
Vanessa Adams
Everyone is so nice! Great experience, all of the staff here are very nice and I do not feel nervous at all. They provided me with great and fast service!
Carl Higgs
I'm glad my co-worker referred me to Tide Dental. I had a great first visit, thought everyone I met was great and have already recommended them to my girlfriend that is also looking for a new dentist.
Jason Shepherd
The staff was very courteous and the environment didn't feel rushed at all. The staff is very attentive. The office manager explained all the charges until I understood them with patience for an upcoming procedure. The doctor actually cleaned my teeth himself which was a rare treat. Most Dentist just do the exam and a particular procedure. He explained all my options to me for future dental work. He even adjusted a previous dental issue that another Dentist had done at no charge to me!
Dexter Reynolds
Five star rating is appropriate. The doctor and the staff are very professional and caring. I'm glad I came to this dentist! The staff greeted me and the dentist was professional but down to earth! Great Place!

Had my first new visit here today. The receptionist was friendly and greeted me when I got there. The assistant was super friendly and quick taking my X-rays. The hygienist was very gentle and informative during my cleaning. Dr Khoo was awesome he triple checked my teeth to makes sure all my teeth were in good dental health. I will be returning for some filling cause I love candy ?
