Practice Philosophy
Dr. Chin has dedicated her practice to providing excellent, prevention-oriented dental care using the most conservative techniques as gently and carefully as possible. Sharing up-to-date information with her patients in order to contribute to their oral health and in turn, overall health is a priority. Dr. Chin and staff always do their best to follow-up and help our patients keep on track with their needs and goals. While we pay special attention to our keikis, it is never too late to start practicing good oral care habits and get in shape to have a healthy, attractive smile.
