Request a Murrieta dentist appointment
Calling is the fastest route. Someone answers the front desk during office hours and can usually place you within a day or two. If you are in pain right now, call rather than email. I move emergency patients to the front of the schedule.

Walk in
26957 Date Street, Suite B4, Murrieta, CA 92563. Walk-ins are welcome during office hours and seated the same day whenever the schedule allows.
New patient visit
A $20 comprehensive exam with full-mouth digital X-rays, time face to face with me rather than an assistant, and a written treatment plan before anything starts.
Bring with you: a photo ID, your dental insurance card if you carry one, and a list of your medications. Recent X-rays from a previous dentist help but are not required, since new digital X-rays are part of the $20 exam.
Dental services at Promenade Dental Care in Murrieta
General, cosmetic, and emergency dentistry all happen in this one office. I mill crowns here, place implants here, and handle most extractions here rather than sending you to a specialist in Temecula. You see me and the same two or three faces at the front desk every visit, which matters more than most people expect it to.
Preventive care
$20 exams with digital X-rays, $95 ultrasonic cleanings, and periodontal therapy when gums need more than a cleaning.
Restorative dentistry
CEREC same-day crowns, white fillings, root canals, bridges, and custom dentures.
Implants and oral surgery
Guided dental implants, wisdom tooth removal, extractions, and gum recession treatment.
Cosmetic and comfort
Porcelain veneers, teeth bonding, cosmetic dentistry, sedation dentistry, dental anxiety care, and pediatric care.
Dental emergency? Call (951) 412-0127. Same-day emergency appointments are available whenever the schedule allows.
Dr. Bao Nguyen, DDS: UCLA-trained, U.S. Navy veteran
I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the UCLA School of Dentistry, then completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton. Ten years in the U.S. Navy Dental Corps followed, including deployments to Kuwait and Iraq. I opened Promenade Dental Care on Date Street in 2010 and have run it myself ever since.
The practice holds a 4.9-star average across more than 230 Google reviews. I belong to the American Dental Association and the California Dental Association, and my license is verifiable through the Dental Board of California. I treat patients in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese.
What things cost, in plain numbers
The comment I see most often in our reviews is some version of the same thing: they finally found a dentist who gave them the number before doing the work, in writing, while they were still sitting upright rather than on the way out the door. Here is where those numbers start.
Full-mouth digital X-rays and time face to face with Dr. Bao.
Ultrasonic cleaning, gentler on the gums than hand scaling alone.
Given after your exam, before anything is scheduled. The quote is the bill.
CareCredit financing runs up to six months at zero interest for qualified applicants, and you can apply online or at the front desk. Uninsured patients pay flat published prices with no membership fee attached. I keep the exam at $20 so that money is never the reason someone puts off finding out what is wrong.
What Murrieta patients say about Promenade
My name is Debby and I have been a patient of Dr. Nguyen's now for over a decade at Promenade Dental. Doctor and staff, which includes Edith, are incredibly wonderful, so kind, caring and compassionate, yet professional. They go above and beyond to care for their patients which includes painless treatments in a calming atmosphere. Dr. Nguyen met me at his office for an emergency visit during the height of COVID and I will forever be thankful for it! I refer family and friends who have a pleasant experience also.
Debby Google Review · Patient for 10+ years
They are very professional and very honest, they don't scam you like another places. The office is very clean, with a very comfortable waiting area. The receptionist is very polite and she is always with a nice smile helping all the patients. Doctor Nguyen is very efficient and does an excellent job, he is a multitask person. I definitely recommend this office, because after going to several dentists in this area I finally found a professional dentist like my Bay Area dentist with whom I had been with for over 16 years. Absolutely Dr. Nguyen is THE BEST DENTIST In this area!!!!
Angiegto Google Review
Dr. Nguyen is an experienced and professional dentist! I needed 3 crowns and he was able to get insurance approval before my insurance ran out at the end of the year. Then, after approval he was able to get teeth prepped for the crowns and he made the crowns in the office!! I was in and out in less than 4 hours. My teeth look and feel great! Office staff is also professional! Highly recommend!

Your Murrieta dentist, serving southwest Riverside County
The office sits a few minutes from where I-15 and I-215 meet at Clinton Keith Road, so patients arrive from across southwest Riverside County rather than just Murrieta proper. A fair number drive past two or three closer offices to get here.
Getting in and out is simple. Direct freeway access, a flat surface lot, free parking in front of the suite, and no meters or structure to deal with.
Patients also arrive through our nearby location pages: Temecula dentist, Menifee dentist, and Fallbrook dentist.
Cities and communities we serve: Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, French Valley, Winchester, Wildomar, Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake, Fallbrook, and Hemet.

Does Promenade Dental Care take walk-ins, or do I need an appointment?
Both work. Promenade Dental Care welcomes walk-ins at 26957 Date Street, Suite B4 during office hours and seats them the same day whenever the schedule allows.

A comprehensive dental exam with full-mouth digital X-rays is $20 at Promenade Dental Care in Murrieta, and an ultrasonic teeth cleaning is $95. The $20 fee includes a face-to-face consultation with Dr. Bao Nguyen, DDS, not a hygienist or an assistant, plus a written treatment plan with prices before any work begins. The price is set low so that cost never stops someone from finding out what is actually wrong.
Does Promenade Dental Care offer same-day emergency dental appointments?
Yes. Promenade Dental Care sees emergency patients the same day whenever the schedule allows, and Saturday is available by appointment & emergencies. Call (951) 412-0127; the line is monitored after hours for urgent problems. A severe toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, a lost crown or filling, an abscess, and facial swelling are all treated as dental emergencies.
What dental insurance does Promenade Dental Care accept?

Parking is free and directly in front of the suite, with no structure and no meters. The office number is (951) 412-0127.
How do I get to Promenade Dental Care from I-15 or I-215?

What should I bring to my first visit at Promenade Dental Care?
Bring a photo ID, your dental insurance card if you carry one, and a list of any medications you take. Recent X-rays from a previous dentist are helpful but not required, because new full-mouth digital X-rays are included in the $20 exam at Promenade Dental Care. Plan on about an hour for a first visit, and call (951) 412-0127 beforehand if you want benefits verified in advance.
Does Promenade Dental Care treat children?
Yes. Dr. Bao Nguyen provides pediatric dental care from the first tooth through the teenage years, in the same Murrieta office the parents use, so a family can book back-to-back visits. Nitrous oxide is available for children who are anxious or who have trouble sitting still. There is no referral out to a separate pediatric practice across town.
Does Promenade Dental Care offer sedation for anxious patients?
Yes. Nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation are both available at Promenade Dental Care for patients with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, or a long list of treatment needs to get through in one sitting. Dr. Bao Nguyen built the practice around people who avoid dentists, and appointments can be paced slowly with breaks on request.
What languages are spoken at Promenade Dental Care?
Dr. Bao Nguyen, DDS speaks English, Spanish, and Vietnamese fluently and treats patients in all three languages. No interpreter or family member is needed to translate during a consultation or a treatment-plan discussion at the Murrieta office.
Is Promenade Dental Care a corporate dental chain or a DSO?
No. Promenade Dental Care is an independently owned single-location dental practice in Murrieta, California, owned and staffed by Dr. Bao Nguyen, DDS since 2010. It is not part of a dental service organization or a franchise, there are no production quotas, and no regional manager sets the treatment plan.
Why do patients choose Promenade Dental Care over larger dental offices in Murrieta?
Three reasons come up repeatedly in patient reviews: Dr. Bao Nguyen does not upsell, prices are written down before treatment begins, and the work is gentle. Promenade Dental Care is independently owned rather than run by a corporate chain or a DSO, so the treatment plan reflects what the mouth needs instead of a monthly revenue target.
