Meet Our Doctor

Dr. Thy Nguyen

Dr. Thy Nguyen ("Dr. T" to his staff and patients) was born in Vietnam. He moved to the United States when he was eight years old and grew up in Gaithersburg, Maryland. After earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from The George Washington University, Dr. Nguyen received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Maryland Dental School in Baltimore. He graduated in the top of his class, was selected for the Gamma Pi Delta Prosthodontic Honor Society, and was elected president for the Gorgas Odontological Honorary Society, a merit-based organization.

Dr. Nguyen continued his dental education by completing a residency in Advanced General Dentistry in Baltimore. During his residency, he was elected chief resident by his colleagues and was awarded the Harry W. Dressel Jr. Award for clinical proficiency and total patient care. He also began volunteering his time and skills by participating in local community health fairs.

Dr. Nguyen still has a passion for giving back and continues to volunteer both locally and internationally. As a member of the non-profit organization Operation Smile, he traveled to Hanoi, Vietnam and performed free dental work for poor and deaf children. He went on another missionary trip to the Dominican Republic with the International Dental Implant Association to place dental implants for the underprivileged.

Dr. Nguyen has completed hundreds of hours in advanced surgical training in bone grafting and ridge augmentation, sinus lift surgeries, dental implants, and full mouth reconstruction.

He is also passionate about building confident smiles for his patients with cosmetic treatment options including Invisalign, Composite Veneers, and Porcelain Veneers.

He is an active member of:

The American Dental Association

Dr. Nguyen and his wife live in Clarksburg with their dog Luna and their three kids Maddie, Ellie, and Bodhi. They enjoy snowboarding, cooking, and taking trips to Disney World. They also love to travel and to experience new and different cuisines.

Never had a bad experience here. The staff are always so friendly and the office itself and its equipment is very up-to-date, modern, and clean. Dr. T is very gentle and nice and takes the time to answer your questions.

Crown Dental is by far the best dentist I've been to. Dr. T always takes such good care of us. My 4 year old loved seeing Linda again, our visit was so personable, Linda and Dr. T remembered her from her very first visit. Highly recommend Crown Dental Care!

I love coming to this dentist. The staff are always nice and professional. They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and try to make the pain of going to the dentist a bit less terrible. I have had many dentists and hated all of them until I came to Crown Dental Care in Germantown. If you’re looking for a dentist, I would highly recommend them!
