Andy Song, DDS

Dr. Andy Song was originally born in Incheron, South Korea and raised in Houston, Texas. He finished his undergraduate degree at the University of Texas at Austin, majoring in Biology.

Dr. Song started to get involved with community outreach programs while in dental school and continues to volunteer his time to provide dental care to disadvantaged individuals at the Mission on Mercy. 

He believes in conservative and honest dentistry. He values spending time with his patients, listening to their concerns, and going over treatment options with them in order to create a treatment plan that they are comfortable with while focusing on a problem-solving and preventative approach.  Alleviating patient toothaches and helping them maintain their oral health is his favorite part of practicing dentistry.
