Kum S. Hong D.D.S. Inc on Chula Vista's Third Avenue has operated from 624 Third Avenue since 1991, continuing a general-dentistry practice originally established at that address in 1965. Emergency same-day appointments and scheduled restorative work both fall within the clinical scope, with complex oral-surgery cases referred to the surgical team at Scripps Mercy Hospital Chula Vista on Medical Center Drive. A Bachelor of Science in chemistry from Loma Linda University preceded a DDS earned at University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in 1989, forming the biochemical foundation for the practice's approach to material selection in restorative cases. Post-procedure prescriptions for the Third Avenue Village practice fill at nearby dispensaries including South Bay Pharmacy, keeping the entire care cycle within the Chula Vista provider network. Cosmetic services include full-arch porcelain-fused-to-metal bridgework spanning three or more units with precision-milled coping substructures and custom shade layering for canine-to-canine esthetic zones.
