Dr. Ta grew up in a small college town called Davis in California. He spent a lot of this youth volunteering in the community. He wrestled in high school and raised pigs in the FFA. Dentistry was not his first career choice. He wanted to be a field biologist and research bacteria. His love for the micro world led him to pursue a bachelor's in microbiology and later work for a biotech company researching diatoms as an alternative energy source. After two years, Dr. Ta's desire to make an impact and serve the community inspired a career change and move to Cleveland, OH where he earned his Doctorate degree. His love for education did not stop there; he pursued additional training in General Practice Residency gaining skills in specialty fields such as oral surgery, endodontistry, implantology, and pediatric dentistry. He is able to perform a full scope of dental procedures.
