Meet
Dr. Christy Tran, Pediatric Specialist
Dr. Christy Tran is originally from the suburbs of Los Angeles. She fell in love with the Bay Area when she attended UC Berkeley where she received a double major in Integrative Biology and Public Health. Life took her to hot and dry Glendale, Arizona for dental school at Midwestern University. There she held multiple leadership positions including president of both the American Student Dental Association and the National Student Research Group. She was fortunate enough to participate in an international mission trip to provide dental care for the people of the Kingdom of Tonga in the Polynesian Islands where her passion for working with children grew.
Dr. Tran completed a community clinic and hospital-based residency in Columbia, MO. There she participated in a fellowship program with the Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND) program, where she honed her skills working with children with special health care needs. Dr. Tran is excited to be back in the bay area and strives to create a positive, fulfilling and enjoyable environment for every child and their families. Her goal is to make every visit to the dentist fun and never scary!
Outside of work, Dr. Tran enjoys spending time with her fiancé Ian, a pediatric occupational therapist who shares her love of working with children. They’re kept busy with wedding planning and their energetic Westie Terrier, Scout who loves playing at the dog park. Dr. Tran is an aspiring chef who loves to try every new recipe she can find. She also enjoys traveling and her dream is to visit every continent in the world.

Our Ongoing Commitment to Excellence
Muir Station Smiles is a leading pediatric dental and orthodontic practice located in Concord and Martinez. We are all about kids! Our practice was designed with children in mind. From the toys and video games in our colorful waiting room to our children themed treatment rooms, we provide our patients with a fun, comfortable and enjoyable dental experience.
Although modern day dentistry centers around prevention, many treatments or interventions are still needed. The majority of dental treatments are carried out to prevent or treat the two most common oral diseases which are tooth decay and gum disease. Catching risks early can make all the difference.
Dental health is important, and it’s important to us that your child feels comfortable receiving the necessary attention to ensure the health of their smile. We understand the dentist’s office can be scary, which is why we take special care to help your little ones feel comfortable on their first trip in.
We do our best to explain to your child what to expect so there are no surprises. During their visit, it is our goal to examine the development of their mouth, including: crowding, appearance of calcium deposits, abnormalities in number of teeth, baby bottle tooth decay, gum disease, TMJ, and signs of prolonged problems such as thumb-sucking and teething. We also like to educate them on proper brushing methods and dental care, and letting them be a part of the process concerning their dental health so that they can develop life-long habits.

Remain deeply committed to developing new and better ways to protect your child’s developing teeth and gums
