About

I am a Washington native and grew up in the small town of Steilacoom, WA. I attended the University of Washington where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. I then went on to receive my Doctorate of Dental Surgery from New York University. Following graduation, I completed a hospital-based General Practice Residency program at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY, where I was able to further my training in dental implants, oral surgery, root canal therapy, pediatric dentistry, and sedation dentistry. For the past six years, I have been honing my skills as a family and cosmetic dentist in private practices in downtown Manhattan, NY, and more recently in downtown Seattle, WA. As a natural-born perfectionist, I am committed to delivering exceptional results and ensuring the longevity of my patients’ oral health. My highest priority is making sure that the needs and comfort of my patients are always met, and my philosophy is to always treat my patients with the same care and compassion as I would for my own family members. I take pride in my ability to properly treat patients with dental phobia and anxiety by exhibiting a calm demeanor and gentle touch. I am a certified Invisalign® provider and routinely take Continuing Education courses in esthetic and reconstructive dentistry. I am also a member of the American Dental Association, Washington State Dental Association, Seattle-King County Dental Society, and Academy of General Dentistry. Since my job requires quite a bit of sitting, I like to stay active when I am not in the office. In my spare time, you can find me snowboarding, playing football, softball, or tennis, or hiking with my wife, Christina, and French bulldog, Muggsy.

    This was definitely the best experience I’ve had at a dentist! They were so caring and helpful with any questions I had. Seemed like walking into a great family atmosphere where they cafe about their patients a lot!

    First time coming to this space. Everyone was so efficient, intentional, and still worked quickly and smoothly so I could make my work day. They educated me on exactly what to expect and my options. I loved my experience here.

    Experience at the office was very smooth and they took care of me considering the time crunch I had. They had a tv that that I could watch which the cleaning was done, that made the procedure less boring as I had something to do. Dr was diligent in finding issues and told me about what I should look out for and what issues needs to be fixed sooner.

    Good experience, very good vibe. Place was modern. While most of my check up and cleaning was done by the dental hygienist, the doctor did stop by in the end for a quick check up.

    Beautiful space and a friendly, kind staff. This was my first time at the dentist in *many, many* years and they didn't judge me for it; which is what I had experienced in the past with other dentists and a huge reason for my anxiety with going back to a dentist. They did a great job of walking me through everything they were doing and thoroughly explained my treatment plan and what they found while taking my x-rays and images. Getting my teeth cleaned was painless and the hygienist had a normal conversation with me, as opposed to commenting on every detail of my teeth in a judge-y kind of way (another thing I had experienced at a different dental office in the past). They didn't impose treatments or procedures on me that I didn't want to do or pressure me into doing them knowing it'd cost me a lot of money. I felt like this was a dentist visit "done right" and helped *me* feel good beyond just making my teeth look and feel good.

    My first appointment was today. I can safely say, I had a really pleasant experience at my visit today. The equipment is state of the art, the office is clean and modern, but not sterile feeling. Most of all, the doctor and the assistant were professional, and did an amazing job at communicating all along the way as well as my options for future appointments. Being someone who does not prefer to visit dentists I would say high five to the smile space and Dr. Lee for winning me over.

    I loved my experience at The Smile Space. Dr. Daniel and his wife Dr. Chiristina were both amazing, they made me feel comfortable, welcome and listened to all my dental concerns. I especially liked how they designed the office space with TV's in the ceiling so I could watch Netflix during the cleaning.

    I had a great experience visiting the Smile Space. Everyone there was warm and welcoming. Painless and actually an enjoyable experience. Left with clean teeth and a little goodie bag filled with a toothbrush, floss, mouthwash, chapstick, and toothpaste. I was looking for a dentist closer to my work/apartment and this is right in between. Very happy!

    I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Daniel Lee. He immediately put me at ease with his warmth and kindness. He patiently made sure to explain every step thoroughly. I’ve never felt so comfortable at the dentist. And a great bonus is the office is absolutely beautiful. Time flies during procedures when you’re able to catch up on Netflix shows simultaneously. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who’s especially nervous to visit the dentist.

    Dr. Lee and the entire staff at The Smile Space were great! I went in for a cleaning and they also found time to fill a cavity of mine. I’m an extremely nervous patient and not good with pain, and they made me feel comfortable, offered me options for distractions and care, including headphones and a Netflix binge during the treatment session, and some nitrous to calm my nerves. Fantastic experience! When I came back out to the waiting room, Thuy was ready to book my next cleaning and there was even a French bulldog! 100% recommend this place. Very awesome people.
