Dr. Paul and his team of All Stars always make me feel comfortable, important, and appreciated. They have great protocols for dealing with the pandemic. They are highly professional and have a way of making their clients feel like friends. There is a great positive spirit in the office and i believe it starts and radiates from the leader of this team, Dr. Paul Tanaka. His laugh is infectious and his smile is warm and comforting.

I always look forward to going to see Dr. Tanaka as well as his staff. Everyone is great. So welcoming. Can't ask for more.
Kyle
Every point of contact, from the reception and (necessary) screening, to the hygienist team, to the follow up and financial duty, is of the highest caliber with more than enough aloha. The facility has been equipped to safely care for us during this COVID-19 pandemic, and the staff are attired above the requirements for health care professionals. Dr. Paul is knowledgeable, personable, thorough, and explains everything in a way that anyone can understand. For someone who grew up afraid of the dentist, I look forward to my appointments with Dr. Tanaka (fortunately my teeth are in good shape for now!)

I had my teeth cleaned yesterday and Orange is absolutely exceptional! She does a really thorough job and is fun to talk to to!
I just got a new crown installed on one of my molars and Dr. Tanaka and his associates did an exceptional job as always! As much as I don't like going to any dentist, he makes the experience the least unpleasant as possible and he does outstanding technical work and is very smart! The crowns he has installed for me have lasted super long and they look really nice.

Dr. Tanaka and his staff are simply exceptional.

Kevin
Hawaii Kai
I had some small chips in my front teeth and he was able to fill them and make them look like new. I honestly have never left a dentist’s office feeling this satisfied. 10/10 would definitely recommend. Staff was friendly and helpful, and even during the pandemic, I felt safe with the additional protocols they have instated.
Dennis
Always a pleasure to come in for an appointment.
Amy
This office is always having fun while being perfectly professional. We lost some flare and refreshments since Covid 19, and now have instead a plethora of extra protective and sanitizing equipment. They are even taking care to clean the air! And the teeth of course. I’ve never had any cause to complain about any of the work I’ve had done by Dr. Paul Tanaka and his team.
Brian
Everyone very friendly and careful about sanitation.

Donna
The staff are so friendly. Everyone in that office smiles and greets you as you pass the bays to get to yours. Dr. Paul has an amazing memory and remembers things that you said at the last visit and he gets to know you on a personal level. It’s like meeting up with a friend twice a year and catching up with each other.

Scared of the dentist. Haven’t gone since I was maybe 14 or 15yrs. Finally got the courage to go and it went really good! Also, I finally got some answers that could possibly help with my vertigo! Starting my journey to finally getting the help I need. Who knew it would be helped at a dental office? Thank you Dr. Tanka and staff!!

You all are so good with my care!
Nancy
Diamond Head
My first visit was excellent. Dr. Paul is calming and took a lot of time to exam me and answer all my questions. His assistance (sorry I forget your name but with him 35 years) taking my X-rays was so friendly and helpful. Orange did an amazing job cleaning my teeth with no pain and very gentle. I'm thrilled with the experience and also love all the art work and aquarium to watch the fish. Everyone explained everything thoroughly down to billing and I actually was so happy to have gone to the dentist for a change!

Always enjoy my visits to Dr Tanaka’s office. He and his staff are very careful about keeping everyone safe. My appointment was with a hygienist and she was thorough and gentle. She listened to my concerns and mentioned them to the doctor, since he always stops by to address concerns or get updates. Dr was very helpful and as usual, knowledgeable and lighthearted.

I always look forward to my dental spa day at Dr. Tanaka's! I felt completely safe knowing that they took all of the precautions to prevent potential virus spread.

Mark Dayao
The best cleaning session I had ever! I never thought I’d say that I enjoy going to the dentist;-)
Best dentist ever. I've recommended him to literally every person I know with teeth and a need for dental work! My dentist before was terrible and I thought smiling would be a rare occurrence in my future until I met dr. Tanaka. For the best dental work in the most friendly atmosphere, there is no other option.
kent
Everyone is so nice and very organized. You are feeling very safe in the office. Everything is so clean.
Joyce
Very caring and efficient staff. Doctor is skilled and friendly and compassionate; his laughter is the best thing. Such a positive environment, must be a wonderful place to work! Keep up the good work you people are the best! I miss those special events and artful office decorations & treats, hotdog was my fav. : ) Can't wait for post-COVID.
Mana
Dr. Tanaka and his staff are friendly, knowledgeable, well trained and professional. All the latest safeguards are in place. I will continue to use them.
Exactly the kind of care I was hoping for. Gentle, pain-free, professional, efficient. I was so surprised and very satisfied that a crown replacement was completed in one easy appointment. I also learned that I was grinding my teeth! I was fitted for a night guard and slept comfortably with it for the first time last night. I am very happy that I have found my “forever dentist” and his super staff.
Dr. Tanaka is an intuitive and caring person with excellent skills. His sense of humor and constant smile are admirable. His entire staff are also receiving my 5 stars! I am so grateful to be one his patients ??!

Dr. Tanaka and staff have really taken steps to keep him, his staff, and clients safe. I felt the appointment went a little longer than usual, but care and safety were there. And there are new koi.
Michael
Had a cavity filled. I am appreciative of the way that Dr. Tanaka and his crew work to numb the tooth to essentially eliminate any pain when doing the repair. He and his assistant had the tooth repaired in no time with minimal discomfort. True masters of their craft.

Dr. Tanaka has a very contagious positive spirit and always greets you with a smile! In fact, I've never seen him not smiling.

Dr Tanaka and staff provided me with excellent, efficient and compassionate care
I love how they take such great care of the health and safety of the patients during COVID-19. The process to enter their office and to receive treatment felt so safe. Mahalo for taking such good care of us!
I’ve had several dental procedures with Dr Tanaka and my most recent one fro extracting two teeth and installing a post for an implant was, like all the other times, a painless, and do I dare say, enjoyable. Not only is Dr T an unquestionable expert in his field of dentistry, he and his staff care about you as person. Could not have asked for anything more. I actually am looking forward to my next visit.
Jo-Ann
I had a great checkup as always and Gladys is great!

As always, professional and friendly service. Most importantly at this time are the safeguards they have in place for the office during Covid19 - remaining in car and calling prior to going in, waiting room restrictions, sanitizing the office, etc., a definite 10 out of 10! Commendable, thank you all!

Kristy
Wahiawa
I had a cracked crown for 4 months. Due to pandemic, I was scared of going to get it checked. Pain got worst and called in for a appointment. I got fitted into already busy schedule the next morning. Dr. Tanaka and his entire staff is wonderful. They take the time to explain all procedures, before preceding any part of procedures. Due to pandemic, upon arriving to office. Temperature checks and hand sanitizing are requirements to enter office. In office is always being sanitized and cleaned. Dr. Tanaka is the best. Recommend him to everyone. The drive out to Kahala from Wahiawa is worth seeing Dr. Tanaka! Great job Dr. Tanaka and staff!
Dr. Tanaka and his staff is awesome. You feel very safe especially during these challenging times. Once you go to him, you will not need to look any further. The location just at the end of H-1 in Kahala is very convenient with plenty of parking.
Saralyn
I was impressed with the thoroughness of the comprehensive test and teeth cleaning. The staff was very friendly and so was Dr. Tanaka!I'll be returning!

Thanks for taking me on such short notice.
Angela
Best Dentist (and office) on the Planet... they took me in an emergency/crunch situation. From the receptionist to the Dental Assistants, they were amazing. They got me in expeditiously and with care and concern. Dr. Tanaka has an incredible personality, is engaging and obviously super talented. Before leaving the office, I made appointments for both my husband and Mom!!! Can't wait to go back for my check-up and cleaning!
Debbie Aiwohi
Kailua, Hawaii
Always a pleasure visiting the dental office of Dr.Tanaka and his team..Its always an awesome friendly atmosphere. Thank you for being such a blessing to my family and I
Celeste Alejo
Dr. Paul and his staff were very kind and understanding about my concerns. I hate the poke of the needles but Dr. Paul did such a caring and gentle touch that I hardly felt it. I really appreciated the time he took to meet my needs. Many times this does not happen in other dental offices. We also had many laughs which helped lighten the time spent. I would highly recommend Dr. Paul for any procedure for your teeth. You won't regret your decision.
Thank you Dr Paul, Gladys, and Liz! You guys are always awsome.
Chris&Akiko
Waialae
I don't usually answer to these feedbacks But with Paul Tanaka and his angels I must because they are all so awesome always! I use the term Angel Respectfully because they are all so friendly but also very professional! I think if Dr Tanaka retires, or not, he could write a book on How to run a business successfully! Because he sure as heck, knows how to do it! Mahaloz to him and his Awesome Angels
Dr Paul has been my dentist for over 12 years. He and his staff has provided excellent professional care. He has my highest recommendation.

North Shore
Dr Paul Tanaka along with his staff are amazing. I always leave his office happy knowing that he will give me the best care for my teeth and smile .
Stephen
Dr. Tanaka should feel proud today - he was able to save a 25 year old crown that came off. Had the crown been anyone else’s work I would have had to endure a full replacement. Since the original crown was made and put in place by Dr. Tanaka the quality was so good he was able to save it and put it back in place! Well done all!
Noe
Dr. Paul Tanaka and his staff are the best! Compassionate, kind, down to earth, great educators and very patient. They made me feel comfortable & safe. Thank you very much for an awesome experience, and my teeth look and feel great too!

Ronel
I found Dr.Paul while searching for help with my TMJ/TMD. I felt Welcomed and the genuineness of Dr.Paul & staff as soon as I walked in the door. I always feel that they have my best interest in mind while being treated. I appreciate Gladys for her kindness and exceptional care. And of course the fun and humor that Dr. Paul always adds and mixes in as part of his treatments. I’ve always been a “Challenging Case” but I somehow always feel at ease knowing that if need be, Dr. Paul will go the extra mile to find the best solution. I’m thankful that I found Dr. Paul.
I was experiencing pain in my lower jaw and tooth. i called Dr. Paul and his team was able to squeeze me into their schedule. they quickly diagnosed my problem and got me the treatment i didn't know i needed. By that evening, i was pain free. Mahalo to Dr. Paul and his wonderful team!
I’ve seen Dr Tanaka since I was a child and he and his staff have been amazing since day one! They all provide the best customer service!
Had my teeth cleaned and checked by Orange. She is outstanding. Describes what she sees and suggests what I can do to take better care of my teeth. A very competent and caring professional.

Love Dr Tanaka’s dental practice! They are so skilled in their treatment, but above all, their care and concern for their patients are of the highest value that I want for my own medical care!

I always wonder what will we be celebrating this time because Dr. Tanaka’s office is always decorated to have fun. The office is inviting, clean; and the staff are always friendly and professional. They don’t just act this way—they are and it seems that the Dr. Tanaka always keeps up with the latest technology in caring for your teeth and mouth.

First impression are crucial, Chantelle provided a WARM greeting that sets the mood for a wonderful experience. Jennifer did a fantastic cleaning with that soft firm touch only experienced Hygienists can provide. She was professional and thorough and it was demonstrated in her efficient clinical technique. Dr. Paul with his humor is like a warming fireplace. The staff always couteous. Thanks to Chantelle for escorting my 5 yr old to bathroom. Where else can you find such clientele, not customer service. Mahalos, can't wait to come again!!!
JoAnn
Everyone is professional, friendly and patient, especially Dr. Tanaka. Love the perspective and accommodation. I highly recommend them. Their work is excellent. The only suggestion I have is if the staff could wear name tags. A minor inconvenience.

Dr. Tanaka is the best dentist I have been to and will continue to stay with him as long as I am able. He, along with everyone on his staff are the best people to see. The entire office is happy to be working there and have nothing but the best to say about Dr. Tanaka. This means a lot to me as a patient who has had a significant amount of dental work throughout many years! Thank you to Dr. Tanaka and staff!
I know it sounds crazy but I look forward to my dental appoints with Paul and his great staff. You're part of their family and treat you that way. They do great work and always make me laugh at the same time. Thank You All

I first started to go to Dr. Paul because I told him I hate dentists—well actually dental work. I hate the drilling and taste of blood etc. in my mouth. To my surprise, Dr. Had modern equipment that dissipated my fears. I was numbed to not hear drills, water is prayed often and sucked up so no spitting. Everyone is cheerful, greet you with sincerity, and truly the visit is done with the latest equipment and done thoroughly. I appreciate that everything is visible to the patient to see and all concerns are addressed and recorded. Every cleaning visit is ended with Dr.’s final inspection.
DJ
Cheerful, Friendly, Expert, and Caring. Highly recommend.
I’’m a new patient of Dr Tanaka and I have never had a more thorough exam from my teeth to my gums to muscles around the mouth, joints of my jaws, etc. I was so impressed. He used very updated X-ray machines. The cleaning I received from the hygienist was also thorough and gentle. The atmosphere there is uplifting, fun and bonding. I’ve never enjoyed going to the dentist till now.
Dan Walter
Dr. Tanaka was, as usual, pain free. I didn't even feel 'the little pinch'! The staff makes going to the dentist worth the trip. Now if he needs to work on getting the 'glass cesspool' to look like a fish tank again! Mahalo Nui Loa!
Dr. Tanaka and his friendly, efficient staff are wonderful! From the moment you enter the seasonally decorated office, until the time you leave with a treat, you feel welcomed, relaxed and appreciated. My family and I have been patients for over 25 years and recommend Dr. Tanaka to friends and family without hesitation. Dr. Tanaka is professional, personable, and gentle and provides excellent dental care!
Dr. Tanaka and his staff provide honest and professional dental care. The staff is super friendly and helpful led by the doctor’s ever present smile and good humor. Wish I had gone to him years earlier.
Atsuko
As usual, had a wonderful experience with Dr.Tanaka Nd his staff. Mahalo for a great job!
Rori
We have been seeing Dr. Tanaka for over ten years now. We started seeing him just after we moved to the island. My mom, dad, brother and his family were, and still are, seeing Dr. Tanaka. We come from Kailua for our appointments. We do this because of the friendly staff but, most importantly, the quality care we receive from Dr. Tanaka and his staff. He is the best dentist and the staff are always friendly. We highly recommend Dr. Tanaka
Jenny
This review is so long overdue! Where do I begin?! Doc and his crew are AMAZING! Upon walking in to leaving their office, they have always made me feel so cared for, everytime. Their services are on point, their after care is just as good and their ability to make you laugh but still be professional are the type of people I want to do business with (just my personal preference). I went to doctor for some MUCH NEEDED cosmetic dentistry and for over a year, I kept going back and forth due to family circumstances. This investment was going to be $20k+ so I had to make sure all my ducks were lined up before moving forward. Dr. was always there to work with me and my timeframe and throughout the process, I always felt at ease knowing that I would be fully taken care of. Dr. Tanaka and his crew deserves an A+ to infinity! Thank you for all you do and for being you ?? If you're looking for a new dentist or thinking of getting some work done, give them a shot, they will not disappoint!
Doc and staff are true professionals and make the office a happy place to be. Thank you ALL for the impeccable work and non-stop laughs!

I look forward to to going to the dentist! Dr. Paul, Orange, and the entire staff are excellent practitioners in their chosen field, dentistry! They are always keeping up with the advancement in dentistry, sharing that knowledge with their patients, and always are thorough in their care. A five star experience for me! Thank you for your excellent care!
Very appreciative for scheduling me an emergency appt during your busy day and especially the good news about my cracked tooth repair!
Staff is always pleasant and great service!
As always the case, the staff were very professional and efficient. I enjoy seeing all of them and Dr. Tanaka. This time, we had a bigger issue yesterday than just cleaning and Dr. Tanaka with his team did a great job with my bad tooth. Also, I am impressed with his new branding! The colors are memorable and the logo is perfectly describes Dr. Tanaka's appreciation for ocean life.
Awsesome!
Why didn't I switch earlier. Great doc and staff.

Best dentist in Hawaii. All staff are friendly and caring.
Trust and giggles go a long way for excellence!
The staff goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable and you know that you are a valued patient. The harmony amongst the staff helps the patient to feel more peaceful.
