Meet Dr. Chung
Born in South Korea, Dr. Chung moved to the U.S. at the age of 8 and grew up in Blacksburg,
Virginia. Dr. Chung attended Virginia Tech to earn her Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry with a minor
in Chemistry. After graduation, she moved to Boston, Massachusetts to work as a Research

With the wide range of experiences, she pursued her dental studies at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine where she received her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree.
Dr. Chung is a member of American Dental Association, Massachusetts Dental Association, and Virginia Dental Association.
