Dr. Kim is a Los Angeles native with a passion for creating healthy smiles. His love for dentistry was sparked in high school, when he had the opportunity to shadow his dentist for an in-depth research project on his career of choice. After observing his dentist’s thoughtful artistry and meaningful patient interactions, he immediately knew that caring for smiles was his calling.
He earned his Bachelor of Science in biological sciences at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, CA and achieved his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) at University of the Pacific in San Francisco, CA. Following his graduation, he completed his Advanced Education of General Dentistry (AEGD) residency in Tucson, AZ. With his extensive educational background and years of experience, Dr. Kim is dedicated to providing the most gentle and personalized dental techniques for his patients. Compassionate, professional, and personable, Dr. Kim finds the most joy in working alongside patients and helping them achieve the smiles they’ve always wanted.
When he’s not caring for patients, Dr. Kim enjoys sharing a good meal with his family and friends, cheering on his favorite Los Angeles sports teams, and cherishing quality time with his wife, Rosemary. Even after work, it’s not uncommon to find him expanding his skillset and learning the latest methods in dentistry. As a travel enthusiast, Dr. Kim enjoys finding advanced continuing education courses in different states throughout the country. He also loves getting involved in dental mission trips to help others without access to proper dental care. If you’re seeking honest, down-to-earth dentistry in La Mirada, Dr. Kim is looking forward to meeting you!
Dr. Daniel Na was born in San Francisco, but grew up in Vancouver, Canada for the majority of his childhood. Dr. Na attended the same university and dental school as Dr. Kim, in fact, the University of the Pacific is where he met Dr. Kim! They have been close friends for over 11 years since their first meeting. Following his dental school education, Dr. Na moved to Oklahoma where he practiced dentistry for several years prior to moving to Southern California. He moved to Orange County to follow his passion of being more involved with his mission trip group called Global Medical Missions Alliance (GMMA).
Dr. Na is an extremely talented clinician and artist with a heart of gold. Dr. Kim was ecstatic to be able to work alongside Dr. Na. Dr. Na’s favorite part about working at this office is that there is always someone laughing at any given moment. Patients and the office staff absolutely adore Dr. Na’s golden hands and his compassionate demeanor. In his free time, you will find Dr. Na doing crossfit at the gym or shooting beautiful wedding videos and photos.

After graduating, he moved to Las Vegas, NV, where he served patients as a general dentist for four years. He went on to complete an orthodontic internship and residency at Roseman University of Health Sciences in Henderson, Nevada. There he earned his Specialty Certificate in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, as well as an MBA, and was recognized with the Clinical Excellence Award.
Since moving back to Southern California, Eugene feels grateful to be able to treat patients like family and help them be able to smile bigger, brighter, and more confidently.
