Meet The Doctor
From a young age, Dr. Tan Khuu was drawn to the fine details most people overlook. That natural precision, paired with a steady hand and a love for problem-solving, made dentistry a perfect fit. During dental school, he quickly developed a reputation for tackling complex cases with patience, skill, and meticulous attention to detail. Today, he brings that same dedication to his private dental practice in Garden Grove, where he provides advanced implant, cosmetic, and restorative care for patients seeking exceptional results.
Dr. Khuu’s clinical training spans advanced digital planning, full-arch reconstruction, and aesthetic dentistry using Exocad software and the latest in 3D imaging and guided surgical technologies. Known for his excellence in restorative sciences, he was recognized by both peers and faculty at the University of Southern California for his outstanding clinical skill. His work in dental prosthetics and composite restorations has even been featured in USC lectures and continuing education sessions.
In recognition of his mastery in aesthetic and restorative dentistry, Dr. Khuu received the Rex Ingraham Award for Excellence in Clinical Operative Dentistry – a prestigious honor awarded to only one graduating doctoral student each year.
