Dental fear is a hidden phobia – the monster in the closet that no one wants to talk about.  Many people are embarrassed to admit their fears and even more afraid to confront them.  Often times not even loved ones are aware of their apprehension.  Worse yet, these people may have never known that oral sedation dentistry was an option.

Dr HongWhen Dr. Walter Hong, DDS first started practicing, he was amazed to discover how many people were afraid and embarrassed to go to the dentist.  They would come to Dr. Hong's office trembling or teary-eyed, with their hearts pounding in their chests like a drum.  After sitting down with countless patients all experiencing the same symptoms, Dr. Hong recognized that something needed to be done to help them.  That's when he decided to obtain training in safe and effective oral sedation dentistry.

Dr. Hong performs sedation dentistry in his office in Pasadena.  he received his training from DOCS Education in 2009, and is one of the few local dentists to offer this valuable treatment.

While these methods and medications cannot make fer magically disappear, they can give patients the confidence and peace-of-mind to experience dental procedures in a whole new way.  hours pass like mere minutes and more dentistry can be performed in a single visit.  Finally, you can get the smile you deserve!

    "I never thought I'd say what a pleasure it is to go to the dentist. But Dr. Hong is clearly knowledgeable and he takes time to explain my options and what course of treatment we're going to do. His staff couldn't be kinder and my entire family feels very fortunate to have found Dr. Hong and his staff."

    "I have always had the best of care with Dr. Hong's group. With the extensive work I've had done, they've become a bit of an extended family for me now. And the best part is, I no longer dread going to the Dentist!"

    "We had such a positive experience with Dr. Hong and his staff. My daughter has had several really unpleasant visits with "pediatric dentists" and Dr. Hong was so gentle and he really took his time - she didn't shed one tear and actually left smiling!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

    "I can't say I love going to the dentist - but I can very sincerely say everyone in your office makes going to the dentist an okay thing. My teeth are very sensitive and this cleaning really went well. Thanks for all you do to make it easier for me."
