Dr. Toni Chen, DDS

Dr. Toni Chen is a native of the San Gabriel Valley. Growing up, she resided in both San Marino and Arcadia, attending Arcadia High School. After high school graduation, she continued her education at the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA) and graduated with a degree in biology. During this time, Dr. Toni began her volunteer work as an assistant for the dental department at UCLA. She also became involved in dental material composite research, and her work was eventually published in the Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry and was presented at the IADR (International Association of Dental Research). Additionally, she participated in numerous community service programs, including one for inner-city children. Within this program, Dr. Toni developed and implemented structured curriculum, helping the children to improve academically. Dr. Toni decided to pursue her dental education at the University of Southern California. Due to her inherent love and experience working with children, it was natural for her to pursue 2 additional years of pediatric specialty training at the highly regarded Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC). Upon graduation, she returned to her hometown of Arcadia and began private practice.
