Dr. Glens dental roots run very deep. His family has many dentists in its midst, including his father, two uncles, and a cousin. When he was a kid, he visited his dads dental office often and knew that he would one day become a doctor too. In junior high, he had an exceptional science teacher who got him interested in medicine, especially cardiology. At that point, he was determined to either pursue a career in cardiology or dentistry but then a sudden curveball happened. In high school, he fell in love with computers and decided to pursue a career in computer science instead!

Dr. Glen met his beautiful wife while working as a programmer, and when he asked her to marry him, he also told her that he wanted to go back to school for dentistry or cardiology. She preferred dentistry because she thought the hours would be better, and even though that turned out to be not quite true, the field was a perfect fit. Starting in his second year of dental school, he ran a program for children in the shelter systems where they would be bussed in for free treatments. He was also able to get them food and clothing each time they came. Many of his classmates and professors told him that he should consider pediatric dentistry since he was such a natural with younger patients, but it wasnt until his wife encouraged him as well that he committed to a few more years of schooling. The rest, they say, is history.

Dr. Tong has always worked well with people and he happens to have excellent technical skills when working with his hands. Maybe being an avid video gamer played a small part in that! In his younger days, he volunteered at a hospital and eventually found himself shadowing a dentist. When he first saw the man restore a tooth to its former glory, he was immediately intrigued and almost in awe. Dentistry seemed so varied and unrepetitive, and the minute he sculpted his first tooth in dental school, he knew hed picked the right profession for himself.

After graduating from Binghamton University, Dr. Tong pursued his doctorate at the Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. Then, he attended the NYC residency program at NYU-Winthrop University with a second-year extension as chief resident to focus on specialties like implantology, endodontics, and prosthodontics. Today, he is still a part-time clinical assistant professor at NYU-Winthrop Hospital and helps mentor new residents. He has attended continuing education courses through Spear Education, is certified in diode laser treatment, and is a current member of the American Dental Association.
