Dr. Kim understands that dental treatment is not cheap. In fact, he understands that, like everything, it will only get MORE expensive. Nothing is getting cheaper nowadays! But he also understands that the longer dental treatment is delayed, the more treatment is required. Accessing affordable dentistry is the best way to avoid larger health problems for most patients.
Dr. Kim has "in-house" financing plan in place at our Glendale dental office. The plan is designed to help patients get the dental treatment they need while keeping it affordable for them as well. Our merchant account will run some numbers for you to find a way to make it most comfortable for you monthly. It is NOT dependent on a credit score like CareCredit is. You just need an active checking account that you use all the time. The process takes a few minutes to complete and you can choose the terms and the monthly payments...6 months? 1 year? 3 years?
It's all about helping our Glendale patients get the appropriate treatment they need without breaking the bank.
If you have any questions about this in-house plan, call Dr. Kim's dental office and they will be more than happy to run you through all the details. If you know you need a lot of work but aren't sure where to start, consults are always at no charge and you can at least find out specifically what your options are and what it will take to get you there.

Don't use your mouth as a nutcracker!
It's the most wonderful time of the year! Don't let a broken or chipped tooth ruin your holiday plans.

It really is a season for us dentists. But should something happen to you over the holidays, give us a call and we'll take care of you! I'm better than Hermie the Elf from that Rudolph cartoon!

DDS stands for Doctor of Dental Surgery. Dentists earn this degree after completing dental school and are fully licensed to diagnose, treat, and prevent oral health conditions. Dr. Lucio H. Kim holds a DDS degree and provides comprehensive dental care for patients in Glendale, CA.
There is no difference in the education or training between a DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine) and a DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery). Dental schools award one of the two titles, but both degrees require the same curriculum and clinical training. Dr. Lucio H. Kim holds a DDS degree and provides the same high standard of care you would receive from any DMD dentist.
