Dr. Kyung Kim grew up in the Pacific Northwest and completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Oregon. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Human Physiology before attending dental school at Oregon Health & Sciences University. After graduating, Dr. Kim discovered his first passion within dentistry—working with pediatric patients.

When his son was three years old and still struggling with sleep issues, Dr. Kim developed a second passion for airway dentistry. He has since dedicated much of his professional life to learning from dentists and orthodontists who specialize in jaw growth.

In 2021, Dr. Kim met his mentor, Dr. Patricia Valerio, and began focusing on Jaw Functional Orthopedics (JFO). He is currently pursuing a master’s degree in this specialized field at a Brazilian university, under the guidance of Dr. Valerio. Dr. Kim will be among the first dentists to earn a master’s in Jaw Functional Orthopedics. He feels blessed to learn from Dr. Valerio who has over 30 years of experience in practicing JFO.

Outside of his dental career, Dr. Kim enjoys spending time with his wife, Jessie, and their four energetic sons: Theo, Lucas, Johnny, and Elijah. They love to spend the summer months outdoors in the Pacific Northwest, and in the winter, they enjoy skiing at Mount Hood.
