Christina Pham

D.M.D., General Dentist

ABOUT ME
Dr. Pham says, “There are so many things I love about this profession that it’s hard to just pick one! However, I can easily say that I am flooded with joy when seeing a smile on my patient’s face whether it be after relieving them of dental pain, transforming their smile, or just having a pleasant conversation with them. Dentistry has had a huge impact on my life and to be able to bring that to others to give back means the world to me.”

“In undergrad, I volunteered with a dentist on a bus in the middle of nowhere providing free dental services to those who were unable to receive care. It was by far the most rewarding and most fascinating experience I had ever had. The patients were so grateful that the dentist was able to help them and even just listen to them. It was right then and there that I knew that I wanted to be a dentist.”

After graduating from the University of Florida, Dr. Pham received her Dental Degree from the University of Florida College of Dentistry. To keep up with evolving technology, she’s a member of the American Dental Education Association, the Academy of General Dentistry and the American Association for Women Dentists.

Dr. Pham says, “Hobbies of mine include hiking, scrapbooking, windsurfing, and running. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do because I love exploring the world around me. Plus, I like the fact that I can try some new and interesting foods!”

“I have just recently moved to the great state of Washington from sunny Florida and am so honored to be treating a community that is so welcoming, diverse, and lively!”

Tori Matthys

D.D.S., M.S.D., Orthodontist

About Me
Dr. Matthys says, “I see dentistry as the dual harmony of science and creativity. It gives you the opportunity to be a scientist and an artist all at once, with the final product being a healthy and fantastic smile!”

“I’m trilled to be working with the Gentle Dental team, and to serve the community of Lakewood, Dr. Matthys says. “I like being involved in patients’ lives on a regular basis: we get to work with all kinds and types of people, see them at different times in their life over the course of their orthodontic treatment. It’s fun to watch their smile and their lives change one month after the other. It is a tremendous honor to be involved with people in this special way.”

After graduating from Loyola Marymount University, Dr. Matthys received her Dental Degree and her M.S.D. in Orthodontics from the University of Washington School of Dentistry. She’s a member of the many organizations including the American Association of Orthodontics, the Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists and the Washington State Society of Orthodontists.

Dr. Matthys says, “Family is the most important thing for me. We spend a lot of time getting together for events, meals and outdoor activities. Hobbies I enjoy include working out–running, snowboarding and hiking. I’m newly interested in fishing and backpacking and look forward to our Northwest Summers! I also love to watch all kinds of sporting events and I look forward to the NBA in Seattle again!”
