Dr. Tristin brings both a rigorous clinical foundation and a personal connection to this practice: after earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry and completing an advanced general practice residency at NYU Langone Hospital in Brooklyn, where he built a strong foundation in comprehensive, everyday dentistry and developed real depth in implant dentistry, he returned home to lead the practice his mother, Dr. Linhdai Truong, built over two decades — honoring that foundation of family-first care while bringing his own advanced training and standards to every appointment.

Dr. Tristin is Spear-trained in advanced cosmetic dentistry, using Facially Generated Treatment Planning (FGTP) — a whole-face approach to diagnosing and sequencing treatment, rather than addressing individual teeth in isolation. Every exam starts with a comprehensive evaluation of your teeth, bite, and smile as a whole system — and everything we find is shared directly with you, in plain terms, so you have the full picture before deciding what, if anything, you want to do next.

Whether you’re in for a routine visit or considering a full smile transformation, the process is the same: a thorough look at what’s actually going on, an honest conversation about your options, and a plan built with intention.
