My name is Brian Chung. I'm a board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Seattle Premier Oral Surgery. I chose to practice in Seattle because I was born and raised here. I knew that even though I trained elsewhere in another part of the country that I always want to come back and treat the patients in the greater Seattle area. Procedures that we offer at Seattle Premier Oral Surgery at this office include full scope oral surgery in terms of extractions, bone grafting, dental implants, trauma, pathology. We also have a cosmetic section as well where we do some Botox and some filler as well. And my wife, Alice Kim provides a majority of those types of treatments and she's very dedicated and very good at what she does. People should come here for the dental implant treatments because I focus mainly on extractions, bone grafting and dental implants. I don't focus on anything else. And because of that, I think that we are hyper dedicated and hyper focused on doing a good job at those things. I would like my practice be known for the practice that does a good job of taking care of the patient holistically. Every patient that comes in and has different needs and has different concerns about being treated. You hear stories about people having bad experiences at other offices and our job is to provide the best care that we possibly can and make patients feel as comfortable as they can while they receive care. You know, I, I really enjoy being able to interrupt the patients and able to manage their care and hopefully provide a great outcome for them.
