Flexible Financial Options for Your Convenience

Stress-Free Coverage for Your Little One's Smile

We proudly accept most major PPO insurance providers, so you can make the most of your benefits with little to no out-of-pocket costs. Our friendly front office team is always happy to help you navigate your coverage, verify your benefits before your visit, and handle the billing details, so all you have to worry about is getting your little one to the appointment on time.

Paying Out of Pocket:

Meet The Doctors

Dr. Gary Liu

Dr. Gary Liu has built his reputation on one simple belief: every child deserves a dental experience that feels safe, fun, and stress-free.

Board-certified in pediatric dentistry and trained at the University of Southern California, Dr. Gary brings a warm, lighthearted personality to every appointment. Before finding his calling in dentistry, he studied marine biology at UCLA and Cal State LA , a journey that shaped his natural curiosity and deep care for the families he serves.

His approach is gentle and preventative by nature. He takes the time to understand each child's unique needs, building the kind of trust and comfort that turns first-time patients into lifelong ones. Outside the office, Dr. Gary is actively involved in his community through education, social media, and volunteering at the Special Olympics.

Dr. Junyi Xie

Dr. Junyi Xie is the orthodontist patients come to when they want results, and an experience that actually feels personal.

A UCLA School of Dentistry graduate who scored in the 99th percentile on national boards, Dr. Xie completed her residency at the University of Pittsburgh under internationally renowned orthodontists, including a past president of the American Association of Orthodontics (AAO).

She is a top 1% Invisalign® provider nationwide, celebrated for her highly customized treatment plans and innovative techniques that consistently deliver beautiful smiles up to six months faster than traditional methods. Her eye for detail and natural artistic ability have earned her national recognition among both patients and peers.

Dr. Xie's approach is as precise as it is personal, because she knows that a confident smile has the power to change everything.

Hear from Our Happy Patients in Irvine

"Avery had such a great visit at Kind Smiles Dentistry today! The team was friendly, patient, and made the whole cleaning feel easy. They explained everything in a kid-friendly way and kept him comfortable the entire time. The office is clean, organized, and truly lives up to the “Kind” in their name. We always leave feeling well cared for and appreciated. Highly recommend them for any kiddo!"

"I took my 14 month old daughter to the dentist for the first time today, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we walked in, the front desk staff was so friendly and welcoming. It immediately made me feel at ease as a mom. The office itself is spotless and so pretty, which made the whole visit feel calm and comfortable."

"Dr. Gary is professional and kind. My experience with bringing a 3 year old to the dentist was (surprisingly) tear-free and easy. They bring toddlers not big enough for the chairs in private rooms with toys for distraction. My toddler was able to sit in my lap for his cleaning and exam. It’s a very kid-friendly experience. Clean and welcoming environment. Would definitely recommend."
