Meet The Team

Dr Dennis Lee Chong began his tenure at the practice in 2011 as an associate, balancing his time between this establishment and a bustling NHS practice. In April 2014, he assumed ownership and rebranded it as West Dulwich Dental. Under his leadership, the practice has undergone significant development and modernisation to deliver top-tier care to patients.
In April 2023, Dr Lee Chong and his wife, Christine, initiated a comprehensive refurbishment and expansion of the practice. Completed by the end of 2024, this transformation evolved the practice from a single-operatory setup to a state-of-the-art facility housing three modern surgeries, each thoughtfully named after their three children. The fully modernised practice is equipped with advanced technology, including a Cone Beam CT scanner, digital X-rays, and intraoral scanners such as iTero and 3Shape TRIOS, enhancing diagnostic precision and treatment outcomes.

With over a decade of experience in implant dentistry, Dr Lee Chong possesses a keen interest in aesthetic and implant dentistry. He is also highly skilled in composite bonding, oral surgery, periodontal treatment and surgery, restorative dentistry, and Invisalign. His calm and gentle chairside manner resonates with patients, particularly those who are anxious, as well as children. A perfectionist by nature, Dr Lee Chong is committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for all his patients.

Beyond his professional endeavours, Dr Lee Chong is a devoted family man and a proud father of three, balancing his dedication to dentistry with quality time spent with his family.
