Dr. Kung's specialist training (UCLA DDS, OHSU MS in Endodontics), microscope-guided technique, and use of the J. Morita Veraview X800 CBCT in Endo Mode (the protocol the AAE/AAOMR position statement recommends for endodontic diagnosis) meet the high standards Menlo Park's discerning community expects.

Every procedure performed under the Zeiss OPMI operating microscope — the standard of care for specialist endodontics.
Same-Day Emergency Care
Tooth pain can't wait. We hold appointments for urgent cases every day, including weekends.
Your Dentist Stays Informed
A detailed clinical report goes to your referring dentist after every visit — you're in good hands, and so is your care team.
