As your pediatric dentist, I am committed to providing gentle, quality care that makes dental visits positive experiences for children. My goal is to build trust and comfort while improving the oral health of every young patient in our community.

– Joel Wong DDS, Pediatric Dentist

I have been practicing dentistry since 2018, with specialized training in pediatric dentistry. Growing up in Sacramento with nearly 30 cousins and serving as a children’s summer camp leader prepared me well for working with kids – it’s truly second nature to me. I recently moved to San Diego with my wife, Debbie, and we’re excited to be expecting our first daughter this spring! My weekends are spent diving, fishing, cooking, and backpacking as I explore all that Southern California has to offer.
