It starts long before you sit in the chair.
Maybe you’ve had dentists rush you before. Maybe you’ve felt unseen or unheard. Here, we slow everything down. When you arrive, you’re guided to a private suite already prepared for you: blanket folded, headphones waiting, your favorite show queued up.
The calm is intentional, designed to help you feel safe, grounded, and cared for.
We want the dentist to be something you look forward to!
The Dental Bar grew out of a quiet rebellion against bright lights and sterile waiting rooms. At our office, the first thing we hand you is a drink menu, not a clipboard. Conversation feels unhurried, direction is clear, and the space itself invites you to linger.
We don’t do fish tanks in the lobby or an awkward waiting room with six-month-old magazines. Pick a mocktail, matcha, or cold brew from our lounge menu and settle in.
You’ll meet Dr. Nguyen or Dr. Doan, and we’ll talk about what brought you here, any health concerns you have, what your “dream smile” looks like, and if anything makes you nervous about the chair.
Digital X-rays, photos, a full 1.5-hour exam, plus a cleaning if you’re due. With Pearl AI, your X-rays are highlighted and explained in real time so you can see cavities, cracks, or changes right alongside us- no more politely nodding along, looking at grey smudges on a screen.
We lay out your options and explain exactly what’s a must, and what’s elective. We also collaborate with you to create a step-by-step treatment plan tailored to bring your smile back to full health.
Insurance? Covered. Membership plan? We’ll show you the savings. CareCredit? Easy to set up. We’ll break down the cost so there are no surprise bills weeks later.

You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through another dental appointment.
Dental anxiety shouldn’t be a self-soothing process, which is why we offer comforts like blankets and noise-canceling headphones. We’ll also guide your visit at a pace that feels right to you, with breaks whenever you need them and sedation options for anyone who needs them.
Posted on Andrew BatemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this place! Not like any dentist I have been too that is for sure!Posted on Diamond GillisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome, very thorough with the cleaning. The 3D models used allowed clarity in exactly where my issues were occurring and gave me the education and tools needed for proper maintenance. Glad to make the switch!Posted on Jessica PouzeshiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Dental Bar provides such an exceptional service that it makes something that most people typically dread an enjoyable experience. The waiting lounge is styled like a speakeasy with a bar where you can make mocktails and a fridge full of drink options. The chairs are comfortable and there’s a tv on the ceiling to watch Netflix. I honestly haven’t been to the dentist in years and I was impressed by all the new technology they used. My dental hygienist was Liz and she was great! She was very thorough and explained everything very well. You can tell the team is passionate and cares about their patients. So happy I found this place!Posted on Kathleen HarrisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience at The Dental Bar was exceptional. The staff (Andrew), dental hygienist (Shirley), and dentist (Dr. Doan) were professional and friendly. The office design and decor is like no other I've seen and they have the most updated technology and dental equipment. They were efficient, informative, and great to interact with. I highly recommend The Dental Bar.Posted on Kristin PowellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are looking to get out of the corporate treatment where you feel like a number rather than a patient, The Dental Bar is for you! Beautiful office, great hygienist who told me she was probably cleaning stuff the old dentist office did not get. I am glad to be back with a hygienist who actually cares! Highly recommend this practice!Posted on Brianna STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can I just say this was the most top tier dentist appointment I’ve ever had! Shirley was amazing, super educational and super considerate when it came to my care! Everything from entering the building and waiting in their “special” waiting area, to sitting in the cleaning/treatment area, the whole visit was such an easy and tailored experience!Posted on Pamela HendersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first visit was amazing. Everyone was very nice and Dr. Nguyen was very personalable and you can tell he really cares and takes the time with his patients. The atmosphere is absolutely pretty chill!! Got a nice cold drink from "The Bar", no alcohol of course, but the room itself was pretty cool!! I Highly recommend. Thank you team Dental Bar!!Posted on Leah BalcarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I absolutely loved my experience with Dr. Kha Nguyen. I was interested in Invisalign and had consultations at over seven offices across Denver. The moment I walked into The Dental Bar, I knew they were doing things different. From the speakeasy-style lounge to the way they asked about my comfort preferences during appointments, and even the personalized welcome message on the exam room screen—every detail felt intentional. Dr. Kha Nguyen was incredibly patient and thorough. He took the time to answer all of my questions and clearly explained every option and what each path would entail. He was knowledgeable, a great listener, and just an all-around kind, genuine human. I can’t recommend this office enough! 10/10!
At The Dental Bar, continuity matters. You’ll see the same friendly faces who remember your story, track your progress, and celebrate your milestones. Your first visit is just the beginning – a foundation for a long-term relationship built on trust, care, and attention to the details that really matter.
