Our Story
A Sacramento dental office since 2006

The people you will see at every visit
We keep the team small, so you see the same faces each time you come in.
Dr. Angela Chen
Lead Dentist and Founder
DDS, UC San Francisco School of Dentistry · 20 years in practice · Member, ADA and CDA
Dr. Chen founded Brightside in 2006 with a focus on gentle, conservative care. She still personally calls patients the evening after major procedures to check in.
Maria Reyes, RDH
Lead Dental Hygienist
Registered Dental Hygienist · 12 years experience
Nervous patients often ask for Maria by name. She explains what she is doing as she goes and stops whenever you need a break.
Jordan Tran
Patient Care Coordinator
Insurance and financing specialist
Jordan handles insurance and billing. He will check your benefits and go over the costs with you before you commit to anything.
What We Stand For
What we won't cut corners on
Comfort First
Nitrous and oral sedation are available if you get nervous, and we keep warm blankets on hand. Nobody will rush you through a visit.
No-Surprise Billing
Before we schedule anything, you get a written treatment plan with your insurance already applied, so you know what you will owe.
Community Roots
We have been in Sacramento since 2006, and most of our team lives here too. Plenty of our patients are people we also run into at the grocery store.
