The Journey Into Dentistry

Meet Dr. Kristy Lee

Dr. Kristy Lee believes dentistry should feel personal, comfortable, and built on trust. Her approach combines advanced clinical expertise with genuine compassion, helping patients feel confident and cared for from the moment they walk through the door.

Born in Seoul, South Korea, Dr. Lee moved to the United States at an early age and then went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from NYU College of Dentistry through the U.S. Air Force Health Professions Scholarship Program. She proudly served as a dentist in the United States Air Force for five years, providing care at Bolling Air Force Base, Osan Air Base in South Korea, and the Pentagon. She also completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residency, receiving advanced training in comprehensive and complex dental treatment.

Today, Dr. Lee is recognized for her commitment to clinical excellence and patient-centered care. She has been honored as a Top Dentist by Bethesda Magazine 2024-2026 and Washingtonian Magazine as a Top Dentist in 2025 and 2026. Dedicated to lifelong learning, she regularly pursues advanced continuing education to stay at the forefront of modern dentistry and bring the latest techniques, technology, and evidence-based care to her patients. What sets Dr. Lee apart is her belief that dentistry is about more than fixing teeth. She takes the time to understand each patient's goals, concerns, and overall health, creating personalized treatment plans that address the root cause of dental issues whenever possible. Whether helping a patient restore their smile, improve their oral health, or overcome dental anxiety, her focus is always on providing care that is thoughtful, honest, and tailored to the individual.

Outside the practice, Dr. Lee enjoys spending time with her husband and their children, Noah and Audrey. She loves traveling, experiencing different cultures, and discovering new cuisines around the world. A lifelong learner by nature, she is always looking for opportunities to challenge herself and grow. Most recently, she has taken up tennis and enjoys spending time on the court developing her game. She is also passionate about fitness and weight training, finding that both help her maintain the energy, discipline, and balance she brings to her professional life. When she's not with family, patients, or pursuing a new interest, you'll often find her on her yoga mat unwinding after a busy day.

"My goal is simple: to provide the kind of care I would want for my own family—honest, personalized, and focused on long-term health."

— Dr. Kristy Lee
