A family practice, in every sense
Thousand Oaks Family Dentistry began as Dr. Hong’s father’s practice. It’s the office she grew up around as a kid, and when he retired in 2011, she took over caring for his patients. Today she and Dr. Tapp continue what he started: independent, doctor-owned dentistry for our neighbors here in the Conejo Valley.
We’re not a corporate chain, and we like it that way. No quotas and no revolving door of dentists. Just two doctors and a close-knit team that families have trusted for two generations. Our philosophy is to spend individualized time with each person who walks through our doors — we focus on quality, not quantity, and we strive to be on time for every appointment.

An office designed to put you at ease
Dental visits shouldn’t feel clinical and cold. From our peaceful lobby to our friendly staff, our office at 1000 Newbury Road, Suite 190, Thousand Oaks, CA 91320 puts you at ease from the moment you walk in the door. During your exam you can watch your favorite show, listen to music, or pick up right where you left off on Netflix — your comfort is our priority.
For families
We love our pediatric patients, and the office shows it: separate kids’ treatment rooms with overhead monitors and headphones to make the visit fly by, a patient team that explains things at every age level, and unhurried scheduling. One office, every generation.
