Practice Philosophy

Ignite Dental Yorba Linda’s name came about because of Dr. Eric Huang’s passion for dentistry and clinical excellence. During his time as a student in Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, he was the only student in his class to obtain an award from the American Academy of Gold Foil Operators, a restorative technique that is quite rare today. Subsequently he has taken numerous continuing education courses throughout the years after graduation to learn new skills and techniques to help provide the best care possible for his patients. However, the practice isn’t just about dental procedures – we also believe in creating a welcoming and friendly environment that makes our patients feel like family. Whether you’re here for a routine checkup or a more extensive dental procedure, we strive to make your experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible along with the care and compassion that everyone deserves. We want our patients to feel cared for as an individual and not just a mouth with a set of teeth. We understand that having your teeth worked on isn’t always the most pleasant experience, that is why when you are here for your appointment, we try to give you our whole undivided attention so we can focus and provide the best care possible.

Aside from just a passion for dentistry, and our commitment to our patients, we are also focused on sustainability.
In dentistry, there is unfortunately a lot of plastic waste, ranging from plastic barriers changed out after each patient to our plastic toothbrushes we use at home. At Ignite Dental, we are proud to incorporate Terracycle Zero Waste Box for plastic, and oral care waste. Being able to utilize Terracycle Zero Waste Box, we are able to recycle most of our plastics used for patients, and for patients and non patients alike they can bring in their old toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and floss containers to be recycled rather having it end up in the landfills.

The goodie bags we give our patients after a check up and cleaning appointment are reusable bags, and we also carry bamboo tooth brushes if patients prefer to use bamboo toothbrushes as opposed to regular plastic ones. We are also doing our part by protecting our water supply by utilizing an amalgam separator for our evac system. The amalgam separator will help filter out any amalgam dust and partials we remove in our patient’s mouth and prevent them being passed onto the water supply/sewer system. Additionally we have also implimented a digital work flow ranging from electronic forms to digital x-rays. We understand that we cannot be 100% sustainable, but at Ignite Dental we will strive to do our best to utilize as many environmentally friendly and sustainable solutions as possible while maintaining an excellence in dentistry
