As a result of being one of the top students in her clinical dentistry class, she was accepted to NYU College of Dentistrys prestigious General Practice Residency Program. In this program, she received additional training in the fields of prosthodontics, restorative and cosmetic dentistry, periodontics and endodontics.
In 1998, she acquired a home-office practice in Millburn, NJ, where she continues to practice today. Dr. Ha has proudly maintained the time honored tradition of offering a high quality family dental practice, as begun by her predecessor in the 1960s. As a testament to her commitment and dedication, she counts amongst her patients, multi-generations of families in her community.
In addition to maintaining the integrity of the community practice model, Dr. Ha is dedicated to offering her patients the benefit of the latest advances in dental care. She has achieved this by completing hundreds of hours of post-doctoral, continuing education with the worlds leading dental pioneers including The Dawson Academy (occlusion and comprehensive dentistry); The Pankey Institute for Advanced Dental Education (comprehensive dentistry); the Piper Education Research Center (Temporomandibular joint disorder); and, The Nash Institute for Dental Learning (cosmetic dentistry).
In 2015, New Jersey Monthly Magazine selected Dr. Ha as one of New Jersey's Top Dentists. The voting was conducted via an independent survey by Leflein Associates Inc., in which a total of 1,376 ballots submitted by dentists were ultimately accepted. The ballots and nominees were then submitted to a 20 member advisory board who further reviewed the votes and ultimately made the final selection of New Jersey's 603 Top Dentists.

She loves to cycle for a purpose, and has participated in many charity rides, internationally as well as in her own community. When she is not on her bike, she enjoys hiking with her dog and travelling with her husband and two children.

Both my husband and I go to Dr Ha. She's really the best dentist we've ever had. She is very thorough and skilled at her work. We trust her completely with everything from fillings to cosmetic refreshes.

I recently joined Dr. Ha's care. She was highly recommended and her practice is close by. I am older, and evaluate her dentistry over a lifetime, she rates a definite five. Professionalism, care, as well as safety in a covid world, her practice is one you will be very comfortable with. I am so happy I made the change.

Dr. Ha had to perform a difficult procedure on me today, and as always, she was considerate of my well-being throughout my visit. I always appreciate how thorough and efficient she is.

Dr. Ha and her office staff are terrific and professional. The only thing that I did complain about is the taste of the water when they irrigate the mouth and when you need to rinse your mouth. I live a half block from their office and my tap water doesn't taste like theirs. They really need to get a water filter to improve the taste.

Dr. Ha made a new upper denture for me. With little adjustment it turned out perfect. I couldn't be happier. Dr. Ha has been my dentist for about 10 years. This might sound crazy but, I look forward to my dental appointments. Not only are Dr. Ha and her staff professional but they are warm and friendly. We ask each other about our families, we have become friends.

Dr. Ha and her staff are extremely talented and professional while also incredibly friendly. They have also implemented coronavirus safety measures that allow their patients to feel protected. I've been going to Dr. Ha for many years - she is by far the best dentist I have ever visited.
