Dr Robin Im

Dr. Im grew up in Fullerton, California and has a strong passion for community-oriented, patient-centered dentistry. Since graduating from the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC, he has focused on creating a comfortable and supportive environment where patients feel heard, respected, and involved in their care.

Dr. Im believes in practical, thoughtful treatment planning that balances long-term oral health with each patient’s personal goals and financial needs. While he takes a conservative approach whenever appropriate, he also understands when more comprehensive treatment is necessary to achieve the best outcome.

His background includes years of serving elderly and underserved populations, including providing care for patients with limited access to treatment and participating in dental outreach programs in India, Uganda, and Guatemala. Patients often appreciate his gentle approach, calm demeanor, and ability to make visits feel more relaxed and approachable through humor and open communication.

Dr Daniel Ta

Dr. Ta is a Garden Grove-raised dentist who returned to the community to provide thoughtful, high-quality dental care close to home. With a background in both medicine and dentistry, he emphasizes comprehensive treatment planning, conservative care, and long-term outcomes tailored to each patient’s needs.

Before becoming a dentist, Dr. Ta served as a Hospital Corpsman in the US Navy, where he developed a strong foundation in medical care, critical thinking, and patient communication. He later completed his dental training at UCSF, where he was exposed to a highly collaborative, medically integrated approach to patient care.

His experience includes advanced surgical and restorative treatment, dental oncology, and emergency care, allowing him to approach dentistry from a comprehensive and interdisciplinary perspective. Patients often appreciate his calm communication style, attention to detail, and ability to explain complex conditions in a clear and approachable way.
