Ignite Dental Yorba Lindas name came about because of Dr. Eric Huangs 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.
Aside from just a passion for dentistry, and our commitment to our patients, we are also focused on sustainability. In dentistry, there is a lot of waste, most notably plastic disposables. At Ignite Dental Yorba Linda, we are hoping to reduce plastic and paper waste by transitioning to a digital workflow. We already took a step in reducing the use of plastic x-ray barrier films for each individual x-ray film by implementing a digital x-ray sensor, which only uses one plastic barrier film per one set of x-rays on a patient. In addition, the digital x-ray sensor utilizes less radiation to produce a clearer image than older x-ray films.
