what clients are saying

“Dr. Moy began ALF therapy with my children when they were 15 and 16 years old.  Along with an open airway, wide jaws and straight teeth, both children now have beautiful profiles!  Before working with Dr Moy, their lower jaws were pushed in--not growing out properly--probably as a result of the first phase of traditional braces, their lower jaws are now positioned properly below the upper jaw. I highly recommend Dr. Mona Moy as a first visit for dentistry and other health concerns--she just might be able to help you!  We drive from San Jose to see her.  She's worth it!

Friendly and warm Dr. Mona Moy is an expert in alternative holistic dentistry. My son's sleep was disrupted for many years after he had conventional braces from a conventional orthodontist; he struggled with breathing for years at night. Conventional braces cinched his bite and made it harder for him to get a good night's sleep.

Dr. Moy offers state of the art treatment. It is really hard to find ALF Dentist who are so highly trained. The ALF appliance widened my son's bite and corrected his breathing problems. THANK YOU Dr. Moy!

~ From a Mom and a Medical Professional

"My girls go to Dr. Uritani and she is the best. She was so amazing with my daughter when she had to put in a filling. My daughter was sooo excited and opened her mouth wide and proud the whole time, she didn't want me to even be by her side for it. Love it!"

My daughter had completed phase 1 with traditional orthodontics and her jaw was misaligned, then she developed TMJ, This "first phase" of braces contributed to making it worse. Whatever the cause, Dr. Moy could see the misalignment right away and ordered a special 3D XRay, which clearly showed the problem. She carefully fashioned modifications to the ALF throughout my daughter's treatment in order to realign her jaw and relieve her pain.
I remember when we first visited Dr. Moy, looking for a dentist to begin treatment with the ALF after deciding to stop traditional orthodontics because my daughter had developed TMJ pain: she seemed to understand my daughter's pain right away and could almost complete her sentences. Dr. Moy is very intuitive.
I asked my daughter just now for some thoughts about Dr. Moy; she said: "I like how Dr. Moy cares about the whole person and not just their teeth; I really feel like she cares about me. And she really seems to know me."

Worth the drive from south bay. The office is clean and in pristine condition, doesn't even feel like a dentist. My two children felt safe and relaxed, we will be going back for further services. Dr. Nakako Uritani went above in beyond in her approach and techniques, the kids liked her a lot!

My children have been seeing Dr. Moy for 2 years to have their palates expanded and their teeth straightened using the ALF appliance. We have been very pleased with the results! Both children have nice wide smiles and straighter teeth now.

Highly recommend Dr. Moy and her hygienist.   Dr. Moy has taught me valuable oral self-care techniques that I had never learned from my former dentists.  My gums have never been healthier.  She takes time to consider you as a whole person and not just a set of teeth.  She is very caring as well as highly intelligent.  I am moved to write my first review ever for her because she has made a huge difference in my health and stress levels...From a dentist, you may wonder?  She offers an incredible deal to existing patients. she arranges for several blood tests, reviews the results with an MD, and spends an hour with you going over the results and possible steps to take in light of the results. I am very happy to have a health ally in the dental field.

Dr. Mona Moy, D.D.S, an experienced, smart, conscientious, and extremely skilled dentist in Oakland. She is the most holistic dentist I have ever met--actively involved in figuring out not only how multiple aspects of her patients' medical history and current medical issues may affect their dental problems, but concerned as well with all aspects of her patients' well being.  If you are looking for a wonderful new dentist, with great office staff, choose Dr. Moy.  You will be glad you did.

Dr. Moy is not only an excellent dentist, but she is also extraordinarily compassionate and kind--which I have found is severely lacking in the dental industry. She has a thorough approach to health--which is holistic in nature. She wants you to be well--and not depend upon toxic pills for the rest of your life (and not to say, medications are a bad thing--as they are necessary in many situations--but many things can be changed by proper diet, supplementation, exercise, rest, etc.). In essence, she is unlike any dentist you will meet. I have already seen changes in my pain levels--as I have chronic pain focused in my jaw and my upper neck. She works with other practitioners to ensure success in a multidisciplinary fashion. She is also a kind soul who wants you to feel better. I have felt that the office and Dr. Moy go above and beyond and really care about you as a patient. That's worth its weight in gold. Thanks, Dr. Moy

One doesn't normally associate a dental visit with a pleasant experience, but at Dr. Moys office, I had just that. the staff is very friendly and easy to talk to, and the Dr. and her assistants were gentle during the cleaning, as well as the crown. Everyone in the office has a really good attitude and great sense of humor. I actually look forward to my next cleaning!!!

Dr. Moy seems to be meticulous and a perfectionist. She explains in detail my treatment plan which helps me a lot with my decision. 
~ Malou G. 

Dr. Moy is the best dentist I have ever seen in 30+ years of dreading dental appointments. Thorough, gentle and knowledgeable, she really cares about her patients and it shows. Friendly and professional staff are icing on the sugar-free cake.

This is the first time I've enjoyed a dental visit. Dr. Moy is lovely and straight to the point. I like that. Seriously, the visit was just absolutely pleasant. Dr. Moy understands the fears of her patients and makes them feel at easy. I love this place and I am afraid of the dentist.
