Meet the Doctor

  • Glen A. Kan
    DDS
    Doctor

    Dr. Kan graduated from the Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery in New York, NY. Dr. Kan has been practicing quality dentistry for over 25 years, 18 years at his current location. He comes from a family of dentists. Over the years, he has been recognized for his excellent services by numerous organizations. He resides in Montgomery County, and in his free time enjoys spending time with his three children.

    He has a dedicated staff of three hardworking individuals. Linda, Mayra and Wendy are thorough professionals in what they do. All three are extremely conscientious and strive to perform at their very best.

    We understand that emergencies can occur at the most inopportune times, and we do our very best to accommodate the patient on the very same day. 

Testimonials

    We have been with Dr. Kan for over 10 years. The reason we stayed with him is because he is service oriented and a great dentist.

    Dr. Lei and Mrs. Lei

    We have used Dr. Kan for 20+ years. He is always careful and thorough. Because of his care I still have all of my teeth at age 82.

    D.H.Messersmith

    I first met Dr. Kan about eight years ago. It followed a less than satisfactory experience with another dentist, and I was apprehensive for the first visit. Dr. Kan's straightforward approach quickly put me at ease. Since then he has had to correct a number of problems that developed from the prior treatment by the other dentist. In every case he presented his assessment without embellishment and discussed the options in clear and sufficient detail to enable me to make a rational choice. He has never steered me toward a more expensive option or unnecessary procedure, and his carefulness and skill inspire confidence. For the first time since retiring from the United States Airforce seventeen years ago I feel that I have a professional in my corner who is as interested in my dental health as I am.

    Warner J-W Fan, MD

    We believe Dr. Kan is a professional in every way. My husband has trouble seeing while driving but we still travel a distance to see Dr. Kan because of our confidence in him. He remains updated in all dental procedures. As a person we like him a lot and have been his patients for over 20 years. I have met his family and have a lot of respect for him. We think very highly of Dr. Kan. We are very pleased and know he is worth the commute.We trust him and cannot say anything negative about him. We would certainly recommend him to anyone we know.

    Mrs. S. Gutschick

  • Root Canal Treatment

    Every tooth has two sections: a crown, the visible part of the tooth above the gum line, and one or more roots, which anchor the teeth within the jaw. Each tooth has three basic layers: an outer layer of hard enamel (which protects the crown) or cementum (which covers the root), a middle layer of softer ...

Left untreated, this decay can spread to the interior of the tooth, and might lead to the need for a crown, a root canal, or even extraction. When caught early, your dentist can ...
