Dr. Tung's dental implant skills are often rated by patients as less painful than the original extraction. With the reduction in patient discomfort when placing dental implants and meticulous attention to detail, he has a reputation  that has built  his patient base in Calgary and beyond. Dr. Tung was profiled by a major newspaper (Apple) columnist, Wai Yin Ko, from Hong Kong on the success of the implant he placed for her. She could not find a dentist to help her in Hong Kong after visiting three dentists. 

 

Bicon, a large implant supplier from Boston has recommended Dr. Tung to patients who are seeking a skilled clinician in the three Prairie Provinces of Canada.  Implants are a very large investment for a patient so finding someone who is willing to help and is highly educated is extremely important to people.
