"We have to understand our patients' needs before we can truly be an effective care provider."
Dr. Moy was inspired to pursue the dental profession after seeing the impact it had in his own life. Due to the lack of proper oral health care, his father's mouth soon fell into decay. With advancements in technology and after several treatments, skilled dentists were able to restore not only his father's teeth but also his smile. Dr. Moy feels a smiles is the best indication of happiness and now seeks to provide his patients with both a beautiful smile and a pleasant experience.
