Meet Dr. Eric S. Wong

Dr. Eric S. Wong was born and raised in El Monte, CA. As a child, he loved exploring nature, watching Animal Planet, and helping his mom in the garden – interests that led him to study Biology at UCLA with dreams of becoming an environmental scientist. While in college, Dr. Eric was able to get a small cosmetic dental procedure to close the spaces between his front teeth. The boost of confidence he felt inspired him to pursue dentistry, realizing how powerful a healthy smile can be.

He earned his dental degree from Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, CA. He went on to complete his orthodontic residency and master’s research at Texas A&M University College of Dentistry in Dallas, TX. During his residency, he finally received the orthodontic treatment he had always hoped for – making the experience even more meaningful.

Dr. Eric has always been passionate about giving back. He’s tutored students in his hometown and volunteered in school-based dental clinics in El Monte and Pomona. Now in Southern California, he’s excited to continue serving the community that shaped him.

In his free time, Dr. Eric enjoys discovering new restaurants and coffee shops, hiking, weightlifting, and working on his photography and cooking skills. He’s always open to a great recipe or local spot – feel free to share one when you see him!
