Dr. Alice Yang
DMDDr. Yang loves her job, she feels that if there is one thing that she made the right choice on it is that she chose dentistry as her career. When she was a child she didn't know how to properly brush her teeth. Her dad also gave her candy before going bed as a reward for her good behavior. She ended up having multiple teeth decay and even missing teeth when she was very young. After she became a dentist she experienced all the possible dental treatments available such as fillings, root canal therapy, implants, crowns and bridges. The most important lesson she learned from this is proper home care. She has been decay free for over 10 years now. With her personal experience she has devoted herself to helping others restore their oral health so that they do not suffer the same dental issues as herself.
A person of integrity, Dr. Yang is well liked by all her patients for her caring personality and outstanding professional skills. Her gentle and skillful way of providing treatment puts patients instantly at ease.
