Restorative Dentistry Serving Kirkland, Mercer Island & University District
Revitalize your smile with top-notch restorative dentistry services at Thomas Dentistry. From fillings to crowns, we ensure your dental health is our top priority.
What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry is the branch of dental care focused on repairing teeth that have been damaged, decayed, worn down, or lost, and rebuilding the way your mouth looks, feels, and functions.
Instead of just treating a symptom, our doctors look at the whole picture: your bite, your jaw health, and how one problem tooth might affect the others around it if it’s left alone.
Treatment can be as simple as a single tooth-colored filling or as involved as a full mouth reconstruction using a combination of crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants.
What ties it all together is the goal: get you back to eating, speaking, and smiling comfortably, with a plan that’s built around your mouth, not a generic template.

Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Great dentist! I came after Covid for my first checkup and cleaning, and ended up needing to have some childhood crowns replaced. During the process they were very thorough, even once getting a crown remade to have a perfect fit. One of those visits came in under the estimate. I appreciate the care they take in their practice. The staff are always nice and fun to talk to. Since my first series I’ve come here for over a year and have always had great experiences. Still need to floss more but the dentists and assistants are super nice about it! Also have great reminder system, and are very patient and thorough when working on insurance issues.”

“I have had a ton of dentistry done and have been to alot of dentists. These folks have it together. Just had a molder crown replaced. Quick ,completely painless and my bite is perfect 1st try. Absolutely no adjusting and then they repaired a front tooth I had broken after quickly epoxy in molder. This was the 2nd appointment to install crown and I was only in the chair 20 min. Went like clockwork and looks awsum. Thanku. Only thing better would be free haha!”
Bill Sharpe
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Thankful to have a dental team I can trust. Especially in 2021 Thanks all, Bill”
Vanessa Hoffman
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“This was my first dental visit and I must say they were definitely unorganized as their X-ray machine kept freezing the images delaying my appointment and they’re not put together. The manager Carmen told me I was going to have to pay a $70 balance. Which I completely agreed on no problem. I got a bill for $140 and was never told I had a $50 co-pay on top & they don’t use silver filling so I had to pay extra for a white filling. I was not told about any of these extra charges. The manager Carmen hung up on me over the phone without trying to fully explain everything and was very rude to me. I would not recommend this dentist because they are not truthful and they want you to pay double your bill so please be careful.”

Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“First visit back to the dentist in awhile after not having insurance. Everyone was very welcoming and informed. Cleaning was very efficient and information was communicated clearly Thank you Dr. Zou, Kathy, Carmen, and Nicole! I'll definitely be coming back for further dental care.”

Richard Fryant
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Best dentistry I've ever been to. The people here are thoughtful and very professional. The work I've had done has been very high quality.”
Faith Hutcherson
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Really enjoyed my experience here for a teeth whitening. The Kirkland location is great; it’s close to the freeway so it’s easy to find, and there was designated parking for patients. The staff (I’m talking from front desk to assistants to the doctor) were all very friendly and extremely efficient. I was talked through what they were doing so I felt at ease the entire time.”
Patrick Dion
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Best dentist I’ve ever been to. Not only are they prompt and quick but they walk you through your care clearly and explain the how’s and why’s. For once if feels like having an office that has a comprehensive plan for me rather than me checking a box every year. The hygienists are empowered to spend time with you and even book appointments with them right in the chair. Could not recommend more.”

“I've looked for a dentist in the Seattle area for eight years. I'll never go anywhere else. The last year with Dr Thomas has been great. His staff is just as great. Very solid work.”

“Friendly, casual, and comfortable environment, because of the team of knowledgeable and caring staff, starting with Molly at the front desk!😃”
Madeleine Dow
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Dr. Nguyen and the dental hygienists are super nice! I felt comfortable and safe—even the time I started crying when I had a panic attack before getting some cavities filled. (Sorry about that lol.) Anyways, Dr. Nguyen was very kind, gave me space to chill out, and didn’t make me feel embarrassed, even though I wouldn’t have blamed him if he did.”
