Dr. Jocelyn Tan

Healthy teeth and gums support long term dental health and a lifetime of comfortable smiles. Maintaining them with routine dental care and a good at home oral hygiene routine will not only reduce the risk of tooth decay, cavities and gum disease but will also enable patients to enjoy a good quality of life each and every day.
A graduate of the Dawson Academy, Dr. Tan takes a comprehensive approach to general dentistry, practicing the philosophy of complete dentistry when it comes to caring for her patients. She takes the time to thoroughly examine all parts of the occlusal system, which includes not only the teeth and gums but the jaw joints, to ensure the bite is balanced and they are working together harmoniously.
