Dr. Lee obtained his DDS in South Korea in 2012 and subsequently spent three years as a general practitioner at a public health center, providing care to underserved communities in rural areas of Korea. During this time, he developed a profound interest in endodontic treatment, particularly in its ability to dramatically alleviate dental pain. This passion motivated him to pursue a specialization in endodontics.

To advance his career as a clinician-scientist with expertise in cutting-edge technologies and research, Dr. Lee sought advanced training in the United States. At UCLA, he completed his endodontic residency and earned a Master of Science in Oral Biology, focusing his research on tissue engineering and regenerative endodontics. Dr. Lee is also expected to receive his Ph.D. in Conservative Dentistry in the near future.

Outside of his clinical work, Dr. Lee enjoys reading and listening to music during his leisure time.
