Modern reception area at Lone Hill Dental in Glendora

The people behind the practice

A small, skilled team. One patient at a time.

General dentists, a specialist orthodontist, a periodontist and the support team who make the day feel easy. You will see the same faces each visit; that is the point.

VB

Dr. Vuong Bui, DDS

General Dentist

Founding dentist · practising at Lone Hill Dental for 15+ years

Dr. Bui founded Lone Hill Dental and has cared for families across Glendora, Covina and San Dimas for more than fifteen years. His day-to-day work spans routine preventive care, single-visit white fillings, crown and bridge, veneers and full-mouth rehabilitation, and he is deliberately conservative, treating only what genuinely needs treating and monitoring the rest. Patients most often mention two things: how gently he works, and how thoroughly he explains a diagnosis before any decision is made.

Clinical focus

  • Cosmetic dentistry
  • Crown & bridge
  • Preventive care
  • Full-mouth rehabilitation

Special interests

Minimally invasive, tooth-preserving dentistry and treating anxious patients who have been away from the chair for years.

BT

Dr. Brian Tadang, DDS

General Dentist

General dentistry · restorative and family care

Dr. Tadang looks after the everyday backbone of the practice: examinations, hygiene planning, fillings, crowns, root canal therapy and the restorative work that keeps a compromised tooth in service for years longer. He treats children and adults in the same family, often on the same morning, and is known for walking patients through the reasoning behind a recommendation, what happens if we treat it now, what happens if we wait, so the choice stays with the patient.

Clinical focus

  • Family dentistry
  • Restorative care
  • Root canal therapy
  • Emergency appointments

Special interests

Long-term restorative planning and helping first-time or nervous young patients build a calm routine early.

KL

Dr. Kimberlin Low

Orthodontist

Specialist orthodontist · in-house braces and Invisalign

Dr. Low is our specialist orthodontist, handling every alignment case in-house rather than referring it out. She works with fixed metal and ceramic braces, clear aligners and interceptive treatment for growing children, mapping the full sequence of tooth movement before the first bracket is placed. That planning is why appointments stay short and predictable, and why most patients know their finish date from the outset.

Clinical focus

  • Invisalign
  • Braces
  • Bite correction
  • Early interceptive orthodontics

Special interests

Adult aligner cases where discretion matters, and relapse cases from treatment done years earlier elsewhere.

RG

Dr. Raffie Garabedian, DDS

Periodontist

Specialist periodontist · surgical and implant care

Dr. Garabedian is our specialist in the gums and bone that hold a smile together. His work covers gum disease treatment, deep cleaning and maintenance, gum recession and grafting, and the surgical placement of dental implants, including planning the site so the final crown sits and functions correctly. He is methodical by nature, and patients referred to him for surgery usually leave surprised at how straightforward the recovery turned out to be.

Clinical focus

  • Dental implants
  • Gum disease treatment
  • Gum grafting
  • Oral surgery

Special interests

Implant site planning and rescuing teeth that other practices have recommended for extraction.

EJ

Erika Jimenez

Dental Assistant

Registered dental assistant · chairside across general and cosmetic care

Erika assists chairside across general, cosmetic and surgical appointments, taking radiographs, preparing impressions and scans, and keeping the operatory a step ahead of the dentist. She is also the person most likely to notice a patient tensing up and quietly adjust the pace, and she talks people through aftercare before they leave rather than handing over a leaflet.

Clinical focus

  • Chairside assisting
  • Radiographs
  • Digital scans
  • Patient comfort

Special interests

Supporting anxious and first-visit patients, and clear post-treatment aftercare.

CH

Coco Hernandez

Dental Assistant

Dental assistant · sterilisation lead and chairside support

Coco supports the doctors chairside and oversees instrument sterilisation and infection control, setting every tray with a perfectionist's eye. She works closely on restorative and orthodontic appointments, prepares materials so the dentist never has to break concentration, and keeps track of the small details patients mention in passing: the sensitive side, the tight schedule, the tooth that has been niggling.

Clinical focus

  • Sterilisation & infection control
  • Restorative assisting
  • Orthodontic assisting

Special interests

Clinical safety standards and making longer restorative appointments feel shorter.

AR

Amber Romo

Receptionist

Front office · scheduling, insurance and treatment coordination

Amber is the voice on the phone and the steady presence at the front desk. She handles scheduling, verifies insurance benefits before you arrive, and puts treatment costs in writing so there are no surprises at checkout. If you are juggling several family members across one visit or working out what a plan actually covers, she is the person who makes it fit.

Clinical focus

  • Scheduling
  • Insurance verification
  • Treatment estimates
  • New patient intake

Special interests

Untangling insurance benefits and getting emergencies seen the same day.
