About Family First Smile Care

A locally owned family dental office in Los Gatos, founded by Dr. Tim J. Chuang so every generation of a family could have one calm, familiar place to go.

How it started

One family, every smile.

Our logo family, animated: four friends who stick together.

Dr. Tim J. Chuang founded Family First Smile Care with a simple idea: a family should be able to bring everyone, from a toddler’s first checkup to a grandparent’s crown, to one calm, familiar office.

He grew up nearby in Cupertino, studied in San Diego and the Bay Area, completed a general dentistry residency on the Big Island of Hawaii, then came home to build a locally owned practice in Los Gatos.

Today our patients include neighbors from around town, and many Santa Cruz families make the easy trip over Highway 17. Whoever is in the chair, the pace is the same: gentle, unhurried, and clear. Dr. Chuang explains what he sees, walks you through your options, and helps you feel comfortable with the next step.

Comfort is part of every visit

Just ask. During treatment you’re welcome to:

  • A warm blanket
  • A glass of water
  • Something to watch
  • Toys & stickers for kids

Our mission & values

What guides every visit

Three ideas we come back to, whether it’s a baby’s first visit or a crown for grandpa.
  1. Compassion

    Every patient is treated with empathy, patience, and respect. If dental visits make you nervous, tell us when you arrange your visit. Comfort matters here as much as skill.

  2. Personalization

    Your care is planned around your needs, your goals, and your comfort level. Dr. Chuang explains what he finds and walks you through your options in plain language.

  3. Prevention

    Careful exams, gentle cleanings, and simple habits at home help keep small problems small. For kids, that starts with a happy first visit.
