Dr. Tong began his undergraduate education at University of California Irvine graduating Cum Laude, and was inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa Honors Society. Dr. Tong completed his doctoral training at the prestigious University of California Los Angeles School of Dentistry, post doctoral training as an intern in oral and maxillofacial surgery at Los Angeles General Medical Center and research at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. While in the practice of dentistry Dr. Tong noticed in his patients abnormal grinding and wear patterns which persisted despite restoring the teeth, consistent nightguard use and would often be accompanied by TMJ pain, muscular discomfort and unrestful sleep. Understanding the causal relationship between their presentation and the root cause of their dysfunction was the inception of his journey into the world of dental sleep medicine.
At SnoreExperts, we believe that better sleep leads to a better life.
We diagnose and address the underlying causes of snoring and sleep apnea, not just the symptoms, for long-term relief.
Our treatments eliminate snoring, helping you and your loved ones enjoy a quiet, restful night.
By improving your sleep quality, we help enhance your overall health, boosting energy, mood, and vitality.
Dismayed at the lack of a structured sleep medicine component in most dental offices, Dr. Tong transitioned his practical scope exclusively to the management of snoring and sleep apnea. Through the use of customized oral appliance therapy, non-invasive laser therapy and customized airway modification protocols, Dr. Tong has treated hundreds of patients as part of the snore experts team and is currently its chief provider.
Over the years Dr. Tong has noted that successful sleep apnea management does not always resolve their sleep related issues. To this end Dr. Tong has dedicated thousands of hours working towards a functional medicine education with a practical emphasis on sleep and evidence based supplementation, diplomat status in the American Board of Clinical Nutrition and completion of clinical and didactic masteries in dental sleep medicine to better serve his patients in their own journeys towards health, wellness and a restful night’s sleep.
