Meet Dr. George Kwon, DMD

Founder of the Built to Last Protocol | Clinical Director

Dr. Kwon practices with a simple belief: great dentistry should not need to be redone. Rather than fixing teeth one at a time, he evaluates how everything works together, so care is thoughtful, conservative, and designed to hold up over time.

  • Education | Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD), Boston University
  • Advanced training | Implant placement, bone grafting, PRF/CGF healing protocols, and full-arch therapy
  • Experience | Thousands of implants placed at Deep River Family Dental
  • Practice | Took over Deep River Family Dental in 2021, a practice established roughly 30 to 40 years ago

East Lyme patients get a doctor-guided plan, explained clearly and without pressure, from the first visit through the final restoration.

Dr. Kwon works alongside Dr. Kyle Lee, DMD and Dr. Hyoeun (Sandy) Ahn, DMD.
