“Dentistry allows me to make a difference in people’s lives by improving their oral health and confidence.”
~ Dr. Steven Tran
Dentistry is one of the few healthcare specialties where a doctor can have an immediate positive impact on a patient’s confidence. As your dentist in Altadena, CA, Dr. Tran works hard to ensure you have a smile that not only you can be proud of, but that improves your overall health and wellness.
A healthy lifestyle is important to Dr. Tran. You can usually find him at the gym working out in the early hours before the office opens or in the evening after a busy day treating patients. He is very proud of his hard work ethic – both in and out of the office – and knows that together, he can give you the confident smile you deserve.
Dr. Tran graduated from the University of California San Diego in 2016. UCSD was just ranked No. 3 among all public universities in the U.S. by the 2024 Academic Ranking of World Universities. After completing his undergraduate degree, he moved east to the Medical University of South Carolina, where he completed his Doctor of Dental Medicine (D.M.D.) degree in 2021. Graduating from a prestigious program like MUSC is one of Dr. Tran’s greatest accomplishments.
His second greatest accomplishment is opening his practice here in Altadena, CA. There are different pathways to working as a dentist. Owning and operating his practice gives Dr. Tran the autonomy to build relationships with his patients and the community in meaningful ways.
Community service is important to the Summit Dental Arts team. Working with local charities to provide meals for the homeless and low-income populations in the community, such as the Union Station Homeless Services, is a priority of the practice. Keep an eye out for us at local events!
When Dr. Tran isn’t working, he enjoys eating at new food spots in Altadena or south of us in Pasadena. Please share your favorite restaurants with him during your visit with us!
