​

Dr. Monique Luu was born and raised in Portland, Oregon then moved to Seattle, Washington for both undergraduate and dental school. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Economics, and Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of Washington. Prior to dental school, she had the opportunity to visit Vietnam and participate in a volunteer program where she fell in love with pediatric dentistry. She witnessed volunteer dentists getting children out of their dental pain and providing oral health education to improve their life long oral health. After this experience, she knew she not only wanted to pursue an education in dentistry but public health as well, in order to understand the complexities that occur within our social systems that affect the health of communities. After dental school, she pursued a three-year Pediatric Dentistry Residency program at the University of Illinois at Chicago where she received a Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry, Master of Public Health, and Master in Oral Sciences. Dr. Luu is a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist with experience in Moderate Oral Conscious Sedation and Hospital Dentistry.

 

Dr. Luu strongly believes that it is important to understand many facets that families and communities face in order to help them achieve optimal oral health. It is important to work with families to help them understand the challenges they are facing in order to overcome them successfully.

 

Dr. Luu recently moved back to Seattle after spending some time in Austin, Texas. She’s very excited to be back home! Outside of work, she enjoys Pilates, cooking, traveling, board games, spending time with her husband, and two dogs, Scout and Umi.
