About the studio

A studio built around the nervous patient.

Dr. Maya Tran opened On Point in 2016 after years of watching patients grip the armrests. So we changed the parts that make people nervous.

How it started

Most people don't hate teeth. They hate the visit.

Dr. Tran spent eight years at a busy group practice in San Jose. The dentistry was fine. The experience wasn't. Patients got moved along like a conveyor belt. They heard what was wrong while lying flat with a mirror in their mouth, then got handed a printout with a total at the bottom.

A lot of them never came back, and pain wasn't the reason. It was how the visit felt.

So we built a small studio: two dentists, one patient at a time in each room. You sit up for the important conversations, see your own scan and get the price before anything starts.

How we work

A few rules we actually keep.

We explain before we touch

Every visit starts sitting up, face to face. If we're going to do something, you hear what, why and how long first.

You see the price on paper

Treatment plans list each line with a price after your insurance. If a number changes, we tell you before the work, not after.

Optional means optional

We split the plan into "should do soon" and "nice to have." Whitening and veneers never show up in the first column.

You can call a timeout

Raise a hand and we stop, without sighing or rushing you. Headphones, a blanket and a short break are always on offer.

The studio

Quiet rooms, real windows.

Four treatment rooms, each with daylight. A lounge that looks more like a coffee shop than a waiting room.

Close to everything in town.

We're on N Santa Cruz Ave, a two minute walk from the town lot on Elm St. Most patients come from Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga and Campbell.
