Dr. Tyrone You

I chose dentistry because of my family’s deep roots in healthcare, especially my grandfather’s influence as an anesthetist. I enjoy helping patients not only resolve dental issues but also gain a thorough understanding of their oral health. My approach is all about teamwork—I want patients to feel that looking after their dental health is something we achieve together. Educating patients and providing them with the knowledge to sustain their oral health long-term is one of the most rewarding aspects of my work. 

I strive to deliver care that goes beyond the immediate dental need by focusing on prevention and understanding. My aim is to give patients a personalized experience, from preventive cleanings to more complex restorative treatments. I also prioritize connecting patients with specialists whenever their care would benefit from additional expertise, ensuring the best possible outcomes for each individual. 

Building trust with my patients is central to my practice. Whether it’s through regular cleanings, tailored treatments, or simply taking the time to explain oral health in detail, my goal is to make every patient feel informed, comfortable, and confident about their dental journey. 

How I stay healthy and happy 
Keeping a good work-life balance is essential for me. I stay active by playing badminton every week and chasing after my energetic two-year-old, which keeps me physically fit and mentally recharged. Spending quality time with my family helps me bring my best self to both my patients and my loved ones.

How I maintain healthy teeth and gums 
I’m diligent about brushing twice a day with a soft toothbrush, flossing, and using a gentle mouthwash. Staying consistent with this routine helps me maintain optimal oral health.

Essential tip to keep your teeth healthy 
I always recommend a check-up and clean every six months. Even with great at-home care, issues can arise, and early detection helps prevent bigger problems down the line.
