Meet Dr. Wendy Tang
“Just 4 Kids Pediatric Dentistry is an office that I founded almost 20 years ago. It is an office where children can start their dental journey at a young age in a loving, caring, and fun environment and hopefully grow with them every step of the way.
“I feel privileged to be able to work as a pediatric dentist. It is very rewarding to be able to work with children every day and have the ability to shape their attitude towards oral health. I strive to impart knowledge to my patients and their families, so they realize that oral health goes beyond their teeth. It encompasses their overall health which can affect their day-to-day life.” – Dr. Tang
