Meet the Doctor

Hello, I am Dr. Tom Tang. I grew up in a small fishing and farming community in southern Vietnam, where life wasn’t always easy, but it taught me the value of hard work and resilience. In the early 1990s, my family and I immigrated to the United States, searching for new opportunities and a better future. I went on to earn my Bachelor of Business Administration from Georgia State University, but it wasn’t long before I realized I wanted to do something that made a real difference in people’s lives.

Reflecting on my family’s struggles with access to dental care, I found my calling in dentistry. With the help of a Health Professions Scholarship from the U.S. Navy, I earned my dental degree at the University of Kentucky School of Dental Medicine. After graduating in 2016, I served as a dental officer at Naval Station Norfolk and Camp Lejeune, where I gained invaluable experience and learned the importance of precision, compassion, and service.

When I returned to Georgia, I had the chance to work in both general and pediatric dental practices, further honing my skills and staying current through continuing education. Giving back has always been important to me, so I’ve spent the past two years volunteering at the Truth Community Clinic in Lawrenceville, where I provide free dental care to underserved families and serve on the clinic’s board.

Now, I’m excited to open my own practice right here in Georgia! My goal is to create a welcoming space where patients feel cared for and supported, just like the community has supported me over the years.

When I’m not at the office, I’m spending time with my wife, Sammie, and our two kids, Oliver and Leia. We love cooking together, traveling, and finding fun ways to stay active—whether that’s running, exercising, or just chasing after the kids! I’m thrilled to be part of your dental journey and look forward to meeting you!
