Dr. Le At Bunker Hill Dentistry Education and Background Dr. Le graduated from Williams College in 1981 with a BA in Studio Art. A family friend encouraged him to use his artistic training in a health field, so he attended the Dental School at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio and began his career as a dentist in 1987. After three years of associateship in Houston, Dr. Le purchased his family’s dentist’s practice in Port Arthur, Texas. Ten years later, he outgrew his location and built a new office. After two hurricanes (Rita in 2005 and Ike in 2008) he finally settled in Houston, away from the coast. Dr. Le enjoys learning new techniques and acquiring advanced technology. He received advanced cosmetic training through the Esthetic Continuum at Baylor College of Dentistry. He also received 100 hours of training under Dr. Robert Gerety with the American Orthodontic Society. When studying implant surgery and restoration, Dr. Le completed the Preceptorship in Implantology at the Dental School in San Antonio. He also took part in the surgical and prosthetic program offered by Dr Carl Misch of the world- famous Misch Implant Institute.
