Meet Dr. Choi and Dr. Ahn - Your Irvine Dental Team
We bring together certified specialists across prosthodontics, cosmetic, and general dentistry - each chosen for their clinical depth, precision, and dedication to unhurried patient care.
Dr. Choi is a prosthodontist with over 35,000 dental implant procedures performed. Internationally recognized as a lecturer in implant dentistry, he combines clinical rigor with a genuine commitment to making every patient feel informed and at ease.
Dr. Ahn is known for her meticulous cosmetic eye and whole-person care. She draws on the latest evidence-based techniques to deliver care that is thorough, thoughtful, and tailored to each individual.
Irvine’s Destination for Dental Implants - 35,000+ Procedures Performed
Dental implants in Irvine CA are one of the most transformative services we offer - and one of the areas where our expertise truly sets us apart. Dr. Choi has spent his career refining an implant process that minimizes discomfort, maximizes precision, and produces results that look and feel completely natural.
What to Expect from a Specialist-Led Implant Consultation
Your consultation with Dr. Choi is never rushed. He takes the time to review your dental history, assess bone structure, and walk you through every option in plain language. You’ll leave with a clear, written treatment plan and a full understanding of what to expect - with no pressure to commit on the spot.
Full-Arch Restoration with All-on-4 / All-on-X
For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, All-on-4 / All-on-X offers a fixed, permanent alternative to traditional dentures. Anchored by as few as four strategically placed implants, this approach can restore a full arch in a single procedure - delivering stability, function, and a natural appearance that removable dentures simply can’t match.
