Leave bones for dogs!!

In New York, we have great access to food all the time. Chinatown in lower Manhattan has so many great eateries and I lose myself in the restaurants and exotic fruit stalls. It seems many of my patients do the same thing. When I do exams on patients, many have worn tooth structures. One patient had worn down a good portion of his chewing surfaces. I asked him: “Do you chew anything hard?” He answered that he loved chewing on bones to get to the marrow. Dentists can repair damaged teeth but we prefer preventing the loss of tooth structure. I told him to “eat the meat and leave the bone for your dog”.

Korean Dentist in New York

I started working at Chatham Square Dental Office in Manhattan in May 2010. It's a great location in lower Manhattan because there’s so much to see and do. It’s in the heart of Chinatown, and the neighborhoods of Little Italy and Koreatown are close by. Transportation is convenient with B, D, N, R, and number 6 train stops within short walking distance of the office.

I perform many endodontic, restorative, and cosmetic procedures. Being fluent in Both Korean and English, I am able to provide excellent service and convenience to New York's Korean community.

New York is an exciting place and I look forward to many more future postings of my adventures here.
