Restoration Dental

Restoration Dental understands that going to the dentist isn’t anyone’s favorite activity.  That’s why this new Orange-based business is dedicated to creating a friendly and enjoyable dental experience.

“When I looked at the dental space, I knew I wanted to create an environment that was welcoming and different from the typical dental office,” says Founder Dr. Ronald Pham.  “Most people don’t like visiting the dentist or being in a dental office, so I wanted to break that barrier.”

He compares his office, which opened in January, to the atmosphere of a hair salon, a service space that feels less sterile.  His team designed the interior to be warm and welcoming.

Dr. Pham spent his dental career working in offices across Southern California but he always knew he wanted to start from scratch and open his own practice.  He dedicated time to finding the perfect location and set his sights on Orange, a central spot for patients across the county.  His wife is also a dentist working in Newport Beach, making Orange County an ideal location for them to settle down.

So far, Dr. Pham and the Restoration Dental team have been impressed by how easily they’ve integrated into the community.

“Everyone in Orange has been very welcoming, and we’re happy to be here,” says Office Manager Karina Vega.  “It’s been hard as a startup, but it’s a great adventure.  The neighbors have really helped us out by being so welcoming to having us join their city and community.”

Patients can schedule a wide range of services, including everything from dental surgery and implants to root canals, veneers and professional tooth whitening.  Though many patients are daunted by their checkups and dental work needed, Vega says Dr. Pham approaches his practice differently.

“We treat every patient like a family member, so they feel comfortable coming in and find they’re actually excited to be here,” she says.

The team’s dynamics also contribute to the modern atmosphere at Restoration Dental.

“We’re always joking around and having fun because we have a positive relationship with each other, and that gives off positive energy,” says Dr. Pham.  “I think patients can feel that too.  Having a good patient and team culture is important to me, and I want to continue building that here.”

Dr. Pham also finds the job rewarding and is proud when he sees the positive impact on his patients’ lives and their new smiles.  “This has really been a dream come true,” he says.  “I’m up every morning excited to help out my patients.”
