Dr. Sarah Jeon and her team arehelping residents of Wake Forest, NC and surrounding areas enjoy top-quality dental care in a relaxing, warm environment thats made us a preferred dental practice for many Triangle patients.
Many of our patients choose us for their cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, bridges, crowns and other dental work because we take a comprehensive approach to providing thorough, gentle care to our patients. Over the years, Dr. Jeon has developed a mix of anesthesia and relaxation techniques that allows patients to experience all the benefits of a top-rated dental practice, without the anxiety many associate with a visit to the dentist.
I always knew that I wanted to pursue a career in healthcare. There seemed to be something magical, gratifying and even self-healing in the opportunity to help someone feel better when something didnt feel right. As I grew up watching my father helping and treating his patients through acupuncture, I wanted to do something similar with my hands. Ironically, dentistry was not in my future plans due to a personal traumatic childhood experience at a dentist office in South Korea. After I graduated from North Carolina State University in 2006 with Magna Cum Laude in Microbiology and minors in genetics, psychology, health, medicine & human values, I was on my path to pursue medicine. As fate would have it, I landed a short-term job as an office intern/dental assistant during this time while preparing to apply to medical schools and the rest became history.
Attending UNC Chapel Hill Adams School of Dentistry was definitely a dream come true. After graduating with DDS in 2012, I worked as an associate for 3 years in different areas of the triangle until I found Dr. Moreheads office in Wake Forest in the summer of 2015. She was ready to pass on the torch and I was grateful to continue caring for her family of patients. These patients have accepted me with kind open arms and they have become part of my own. I appreciate and enjoy their every visit, family updates and wonderful comments/treats they bring to the office. I truly consider and provide treatment for them as I would for my own and Im sincerely grateful for their trust and smiles.
When Im not working at the office, I spend all of my free time being a mom and wife. I live in north Raleigh with my husband James (my high school sweetheart from Broughton High School) and our 3 children: Zoe (11), Noah (9) and Isaiah (3). We also have a tiny fur ball named Teddy, who is a poo-chon. We love trying out different restaurants in town and just spending time together as family.

Our practice, in the heart of Wake Forest, NC, was started to be something more than a regular dental practice. We wanted a place where patients seeking cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening and other dental work could feel at home.
Our team of dental hygienists and assistants all came on board with the goal of creating a positive, long-term work environment. Coming to our office feels like visiting family, where you see the same faces each time. We pride ourselves in our family atmosphere and the sense of comfort it evokes for our patients!
We believe in educating our patients by explaining what they need, why they need it and how it will affect their overall dental health. Our goal is for you to be completely informed about your dental work and dental health before you leave our office.
We offer a wide range of dental services including cosmetic dentistry, routine dental cleanings, bleaching, tooth-colored fillings, crowns, bridges, periodontal services, custom biteguards, teeth whitening, implant crowns, veneers and other dental work.

Dr Jeon is the best dentist I've visited. The office is spotless, and the staff is friendly and extremely helpful. Dr Jeon has always advised when she thought I might have trouble with a tooth; but has never suggested unnecessary dental work. During a Feb visit she showed me that one molar was cracked and might break. I opted NOT to have a crown installed. 3 weeks later the tooth broke. The staff fit me in as the last patient on a very busy day, staying open late, then immediately closed due to COVID.

I love this dentist office! From the building to the people inside it -it is an awesome experience. I always feel well taken care of and Dr Sarah Jeon is so very nice, gentle and knowledgeable. I love that it is an all female staff and I wish for a bit more diversity in the staff -people of color ...I know we're all evolving and growing so I'm sure it will happen.
